    Thanks to all who've watched:) New vid this weekend/ early next week. I have also created a Patreon page for those interested in getting fruit seeds and plants off me. I'll be giving away a lot + selling stock from the orchard as it matures. Cheers for the incredible support , A patreon.com/b2bhomesteading

    Thank you for this channel. For me, this is the greatest adventure and one on all of our minds. Where I live in Humboldt California Perma Culture is everywhere. Of course our weather is different so it wont all fit but seeing someone follow through and be (hopefully) successful will certainly be a boon. All of the adventures that all of your friends and you have done have moved me. It difficult as I am an adrenal body type and outdoorsman but disabled...I WANT to go do all these things...but what ends up happening is way less pretty. I appreciate being able going with you guys!!! HUZZAH!!!!!!

    Hey Az, greetings from New Jersey, USA!! I recently discovered B2B and have been binge watching every minute for a week now. In response to something you said in this video about whether we're interested in learning things that you've grown up knowing, I'd personally say I'm fascinated with every shred of information you have to share. The love for life you exude is addicting. You take nothing for granted. I can only dream of having one day catching crays, spearing and catching exactly the fish I want to eat that day. Of course I know there's tons of hard work that isn't shown. You all show a deep respect for life and never abuse it. You only take what you can eat and waste nothing. That is a lesson for us all. I love my life should be on shirts on the B2B website! Gods bless the whole team, you brighten my days!! 😊

    “You can never be too rich, too thin, or have too much mulch.” Gardening/raising fruit trees is always a work in progress. You keep on trying different things, and hoping nature will cooperate a couple of years down the line, and pay off. We had a long wet cold spring which shut down the European honeybees, so none of the trees set any fruit, then in July when everything was coming on in the garden we had 20 minutes of 20 mm hail until it was an inch deep on the ground and everything was shredded to bare stems. A slow recovery lasted into late September when the killing frost ended the season. Now it is averaging -5 to -20 C with -30 C on the way. Oh, well, there is always next year. Seed catalogues will arrive in a couple of weeks, and greenhouse work will start in 4 months.

    As a Thai, almost every house in Thailand grows bananas. It is easy to grow and hardly need any maintenance. However, banana is not only a single tree. They expand very fast and if you want to get rid of the young ones that keep shooting out of the ground, you have to whole young trees with roots. Otherwise, when it gives you the fruits, they will no longer produce any fruit, so you can cut that tree down.

    “Deepak Chopra…” that was a quick, spontaneous aside - very clever.
    In the states we would probably, though not in every case, refer to the sprouts encircling the cut down banana trees as “pups.”
    The pups erupting around the finished banana trees will themselves, if allowed to mature, produce bananas, yes?
    Cool program… Cheers!

    You may need a better anchor system for your cyclone fencing. It would have to be pretty deep and cemented to help hold up a small/medium sized tree. If one approaches, you might be better off pruning off as much as you can to decrease wind drag on the trees. Better to lose a yield than have a long established tree go down. When trees start falling they tend to kill other things around them. I had a palm tree in Florida take out a medium sized grapefruit tree in a Hurricane

    Do you guys work with compost and soil biology? Without seeing in person in a bit harder though I’m seeing evidence of what looks like mineralization challenges. Rich compost and vermaculture (worm compost) can be of great value. Also nitrogen fixer plants and trees with deep tap roots would kickstart that part of cycle progression in soil biology. Any mushroom producers around.... they often make their spent “soil”, actually compost available as the shrooms need high nutrient soils. Fantastic looking place you have there!
