This is really motivating! I'm from the Northern part of Kenya, which is quite arid. I'm gaining valuable insights from this channel. My aim is to educate people in my village to enhance our soil and boost productivity.
I'm looking to start permaculture in Central Iran on our land. It's a high desert so there's light snow in winter and not possible for tropicals or dates. But the avocados love the green house. Love to learn more!!!
It's looking great Geoff. I hope the unrest in the area isn't causing you too much trouble. Hopefully, you can get others in the area to follow your example. Cheers!
Absolute proof anywhere can be abundant. I remember when Bill Mollison pronounced this soil "the worst" he had seen after years of travel. What a difference good design and creative management plus lots of hard work has transformed this site from moon scape to abundance. Well done!
It's amazing what you've done with such a tiny budget. Except for the sandstone, I saw almost no sand. You and the team have done a wonderful, fascinating, amazing job!!!!
With the University teaching others, farmers, and this showcase, Jordan will change to a much more self-sufficient country. Thank you. One day I will ask my neighbours that visit Jordan to go take a look at what they can do and they'll be much better off. Well done ✅.
Seeing the updates of this site always makes me want to move to Arizona or West Texas. The first intro I ever got to you, and permaculture, was the old videos of you at the Tucson swales. It just seems to me that the dryer sites are somehow more receptive to lush, tropical looking results. That's probably not true, and I understand there was a lot of work and patience at play, but it sure is beautiful. Edit: the stone work there, is just gorgeous.
Awesome! I love seeing the progress and abundance, the calm, and chaotic order of the plants and animals that thrive so well with their respective places.
No but a lot of the varieties have nasty thorns. Random fact: those thorns are being used for "ancient" tattooing till this day since many years by many indigenous cultures around the world
@@humanbeingnotahumandoing1 Aha, I would not have imagined citrus having thorns, thank you for the answer. EDIT (14/07/2024): A week or so ago I came across a blood orange tree in a small demonstrative food garden in England and I saw the large thorns it had, I can see why they would be a concern!
Enjoyed the tour, thank you. I see lots of new growth and changes since the last visit. I live in Tucson, Arizona zone 9a and I am going to try Leucaena again this year. A cold snap killed my entire 20' tall crop last year. I'm going to crop and use more mulch this year.
Hi, thank you Geoff and everyone else, your unwavering resolve and passionate and educative documentarys, we see the fruit of your actions, you guys are the great nature assistants that by intelligent design has and will lead to great events to reduce the difference between the two edge media of connected and disconnected to earth societies.
I've been waiting for this update! I just checked a week or two ago to see if there was anything new! I hope you plan to do a few more in-depth videos, I love this project!
G'day Geoff, very interesting site indeed for us here in Namibia. I was wondering how much water this system needs? I see a lot of irrigation pipes...are you feeding those only from rainwater tanks and greywater? Thanks so much!
I think with tall enough trees (particularly ones which aren't easy to climb) the birds are fairly safe. There are a couple of hawthorn trees immediately beyond the fence at the back of our house here in the UK, only about 20 feet at their peaks, yet birds nevertheless perch in them (I think magpies have nested there in at least some of the five years I've lived here) despite the neighbourhood cats occasionally trying to stalk them. That said, I think the cats do frighten smaller birds off, and even the magpies get a bit nervous I think; I don't think I've seen them in the trees for a year or so (these modestly sized trees are the biggest mature trees that we have here because the estate was newly built five or six years ago).
Asalamu alaikum brother Geoff. I pray you and the family are in the best of health and had a great Eid. I wanted to get your advice on how to tackle flat terrain? Our family own a few 1000 acres of land in Algeria on the outskirts of the Sahara desert. It's topography is pretty flat and uniform and I was curious about how one would go about trying to retain water on a site like that. While it rains quite scarcely throughout the year, when it finally does rain it pours, so would obviously want to retain as much of that as possible. Thanks for your time

Oh my goodness! The area has changed! More trees in the area . More homes. Looks like the neighbors are also doing the same thing. That's wonderful.

Thank you for the update, always a pleasure to watch!
What an abundance, a lush paradise!
Thank you Geoff for your tireless work in inspiring others to create positive change in the world.
Beautiful stuff Geoff. The world never looked better!
It's looking great Geoff. I hope the unrest in the area isn't causing you too much trouble.
Hopefully, you can get others in the area to follow your example. Cheers!
If We could all see that there is so much abundance in this world (even in the desert) with just a small amount of design and maintenance.
@@rotcakaMay the idea of abundance in every home grow and bring peace and develop everyone as good neighbors

Wow that moringa tree is huge. I have one in my garden that has to go inside every winter 😊
It's amazing what you've done with such a tiny budget. Except for the sandstone, I saw almost no sand. You and the team have done a wonderful, fascinating, amazing job!!!!
I always love seeing more of this place❤
Thank you for the update Geoff. My thoughts have been on this garden and the people touched by it. Sending best wishes to all.
Hear the wild birds in the trees throught the video. That is how we know you have a diverse habitat.

That fenced terrace with the tomatoes, cabbages and so on is enviable at this time of year! Truly a land of plenty :)

love the digital tags on the video!
Cat Bed = Double Function! Love it! Looking great Geoff!
Yeah that made me chuckle 👍🏼
The most obvious development is the ever expanding green congratulations of fabulous contribution to the environment 🎉
Looks amazing Geoff! I hope we also get to see a tour of Abla's place too!
Always amazing to see an update on this project!
Cheers & mabuhay, from my end--the Philippines!
Astounding! What an inspiration! Thanks for sharing the journey Geoff.
Beautiful place. Great human being
It looks amazing Geoff; can’t believe that that’s the Jordanian desert! But no walking barefoot around citrus chop and drop!
Why, are citrus leaves/twigs painful to walk on?
No but a lot of the varieties have nasty thorns. Random fact: those thorns are being used for "ancient" tattooing till this day since many years by many indigenous cultures around the world
My understanding is that there is irrigation from reclaimed water, but that the need for it is reducing over time.

Go Geoff and Nadia-- so beautiful, so well done. Wonderful wonderful contribution to a dry land.
You and this project always are an inspiration. Tanks.
Geoff is a legend

it sure has come along way from what it once was, Thank you for the update. Also looks like it's become contagious to the homes in the area as well ♥
I love these updates! So therapeutic! I feel as part of the project. ))
❤❤❤I also. He explains so good. And Geoff s ideas to work with dry areas give me hope ❤ many people learn from him
When we share these videos with the people we meet or know, we are helping for sure.

Cruising along now! Not sure about the cats though
A lot of development is happening there
how much watering is need over summer? are you bringing in extra water?
love the update on the desert project! would love to visit
Thanks Geoff!
MashaAllah
Good morning, Geoff, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b USA
I love when you make a new video and visit me❤
Your Desert Oasis is gorgeous.

@@fayebird1808 Thank you so much!
You should green all that land below you at the opening scene, now that would be fantastic
What does the solar do on that chicken tractor?
amazing
