Thanks Christian! This is for the generations to come.
I just saw a video of another farming couple in Georgia whose crop was just devastated by poor soil quality. I emailed them and begged them to go watch your videos or better yet, give you a visit. I really hope they reach out to you! It was so sad to see what happened to them.
Thank you Mishas,
I really hope they take your advice!
It was a great experience getting to know your farm today!! Thanks for all you’re doing for our environment by keeping such priceless knowledge alive about natural options to produce our food detached off greedy interests of mass production. I wish there were more people like you in this country, so that more people can live healthier and happier lives. 🙏
Southern Alberta here. Drought is already on the table for us. Water saving will be at a premium. Thanks for the wonderful videos and tips so we can share with others. Blessings🇨🇦💕
Heavy hay mulch is like a wet blanket on your garden. You’ll be delighted with all the water you will save!
I started raised beds couple yrs ago, huglekulture method with heavy mulching at all times to keep from having to water and to feed the soul/plants. I stumbled upon your videos last spring. Then last fall we found out we are moving 700 miles away and that means I will have to start over with my garden.
We will be offically moving in two more weeks (8/21)!!!
I am going to do your method of gardening as i prefer a lazier way of gardening especially with my physical disabilities but I still want easy, organic, safe gardening.
I will at least do my first yr on the ground like you are doing and see if I can physically handle that, especially since its so simple. If i still need some height to the beds i will slowly add in raised beds (open bottoms on the ground of course) but still use your mulch method to keep the same principles.
Thank you for giving us a easy, sustainable, and organic way to grow our gardens.
Tonya, thank you so much for taking the steps to grow the best food and for being a good steward of our earth!
Great video! Keep up the good work!
Love your message. Thanks for doing what you do.
Amazing stuff you are doing here, Thank you for helping our soil!
I’ve taken this approach here in Quebec, Canada and went searching for some information as my neighbours have been question what the heck I’m doing. Came across your videos and feel very inspired to keep going strong, thank you so much from a fellow Hippy at heart! ✌🏼🌼
Thanks Christina,
Together we are an army of hippies that have been trying to change the face of farming/gardening for the benefit of all people for the last 5 or 6 decades.
How DO you do it up there in Quebec Canada? My mind is so curious because I live close to the Canadian Boarder in Upper Michigan USA and I have heard and seen on youtube that it doesn't work with hay because of our climate with the frost(cold season). PLEASE tell me how your doing it in your garden and getting the (Mulch)-Hay, or wood chips or... to brake down with your hard winters. Do you still use Hay? What type of mulch do you use and what do you do and how. Thank you : ) A Michigan Mom
Sorry Michigan Mom, just saw your question.
This worked just fine in western NY. You don’t have permafrost to deal with and there are plenty of pollinators in that area of the country. Use hay just like the videos and you’ll be delighted with the results.
Yes the hay will work fine, I did use maple leaves the first year ( I like to use what is available from nature, I think it knows best ) and found a significant increase in all kinds of beneficial bugs and microbs, however it can create a heavy mat like blanket so I did have to move some around in the spring. I also left all my Mexican sunflowers and sunflowers up all winter( for the birds and bugs) and when they are dry in the spring I made mulch with them and then added the hay on top, the leaves under then became my compost. Now it’s a team effort from all the plants and trees around, it feels very synchronized with nature and everything is thriving and doing their part. Good luck and happy gardening 🌻
I appreciate what you're doing, Mr. Cliff.
This is absolutely fantastic.
I've shown a few relatives to this and multiple people in multiple discord chat servers.
Hello from Louisiana, the name's Wes Savage and it's a pleasure encountering you and your channel.
Thanks man. I appreciate you!
@@jarheadfarm6811 Mr. Cliff, I have a question to ask relating to this simplified gardening method.
Have you ever thought of trying to apply this to the Three Sisters growing method of the Native Americans?
It seems like they'd be a match made in Heaven.
We’d, I think you’re right!
Hey bud love your video with another RUclipsr she introduced me to you in that video so i have subscribed to your channel aswell love the way you farm and all your information so will defo be watch thanks
Just came across your videos. THANKS! Wish there were more!
I’m a one man farm but I’ll try to do some more short videos.
In a few weeks we’ll have one on collecting and processing kaolin clay for use in the gardens.
@@jarheadfarm6811 I'll be looking forward to it.
Please make other videos.
I'm just getting started & you have a wealth of knowledge.
Thank you
Looking forward to eating my organic farm fresh eggs! Thanks a ton neighbor!
Thanks Andrea! You will love them! Welcome to the neighborhood.
Hey there from Suwanee...I enjoyed watching re-runs again....Where do you get your "clean hay"?
Clean hay may be hard to find. I sometimes use old rotten bales that most farmers have laying around the edges of their hay fields.
Thank you sir that was so kind of . Sue and can't wait to come visit you. We do quite a few day hikes up in that area peace and blessings my friend.
❤️❤️
Well done
🥰😍😍😍
I thought I heard you talking about jicama. How do you get seeds my wife and I have fallen in love with it.
Order jicama seeds from an organic source. It’s getting pretty late in the season to plant these now since you need about 150 days before frost.
Hey, love the videos, please make more, is a Mix of grasses and Lespedeza square bales from first cutting ok to cover garden ? Thank you
Thanks Dragon!
@@jarheadfarm6811 can you use straw in square bales for this …..? Love your videos
Straw is hollow grass stems with little nutritional value for the soil whereas hay is full of all kinds of good stuff like microbes and bacterial life that’s required for good plant growth.
Hi, I live in Minnesota, have the perfect place to do this, and am about to get started on it. Question: Hay versus Straw. Is it a nutrient thing?
Hi Sandy,
Straw is simply hollow grass stems. Although it will conserve moisture and control weeds it just can’t contribute to the soil web the way hay does with all its nutrients and beneficial bacteria.
Cliff
I have access to hay but it is moldy, can I still use it? Could I use leaves instead of hay? Sorry if these are stupid questions.
Hi Rory, yes, moldy hay will be fine. As far as leaves go, they break down very slowly and add more acid than nutrients to the soil.
@@jarheadfarm6811 thank you
What does someone do if they are starting out with rocky soil? Remove the rocks after the hay has helped soften the soil?
Hi Fallingcolors,
That sounds like the most logical approach.
Hey Mr. Cliff just wondering about your no till garden. Can it be done on sandy soil? When do I start putting Hay down and when do I start planting ?
Hey Martin,
Yes it works very well in sandy soil. Had a bountiful garden in Florence SC with hay mulch.
I don’t know your zone but you’re probably south of north Ga so go for it!
Yes sir I'm in North Carolina about 1 hour west of the outer banks. My stepfather has cows and grows his on hay and everything, and I know he uses chemicals. About how long does that round bail need to sit before its all washed away?
Hey Martin! The old hay that I sometimes use is at least 2 years old. Get your stepfather to grow a hay field without herbicides for next season.
I just talked to him, he has some the cows won't eat that has no chemicals on it and they have been sitting for 3 years
Thanks for replying so quickly. Thanks for sharing your info! Have a Gret Day.
Can I use straw instead of hay if I cannot get hay?
Hi Enna! Straw will conserve moisture and suppress weeds but it won’t contribute much in the way of nutrients and beneficial bacteria. I but it’s certainly better than a ‘naked’ garden!
