Open land, animals all around, living self-sustainably, building our own structures, giving back to the land and environment.

HAHA! They discover the hot water! Here (in the eastern Europe) we are so poor, that we have to go to several jobs, to end up in the week like an idiot living in the dirty city , and finally with the money to pay the gasoline or the train to get on the hell, to the weekends in our parents villages, and start to dig and dig, and eternally over and over repair our nonstop broken and fallen houses. This is the situation from a 2 generation until now. The richest peoples that live in the town, they also has old houses that they are abandoned, or go sometime for the weekend just to take all the production their grandmas made in the summer, and run out from the villages, because they are young, and want to explore the world, to travel, to see it. No one young peoples want to live in the villages now, or somewhere that are extremely isolated from some society or contacts. This tradition is after comes industry, where all has to have some stupid elementary education, just to go to the new towns and to work like a slavery for some stupid idea of development.!!! Every human progress has his costs.. So our parents, and we, pay the build for this industrial and technical development. Not our children has we do not want to pay this price. Every human know that if he has land, he is free and rich. The villages and communities are like this, most are farmers, or with livestock, and few % are craftsman- to produce other goods for the peoples and to trade them, for food production from farmers. This is the best politic to live in society , that everybody care of their own lives and produce something.. But everywhere has peoples which are more lazy, more clever and want to get the resources without to work too much, so they still from others, rob them, force them, slave them, and get their resources, wife, land all..

We did the same. Sold the business and home in the city and moved to rural land with water. We grow and raise our own food and live in a small house. Much better life......we work harder but are much happier.

You're paying with the hours of your life you had to spend earning that money. The difference is that life is one thing money can't buy. Life only gets shorter.

Now I am a owner of a 5.5 acres of land and working on transferring the land to something similar to this...

Kept hearing the word Permaculture and had to look it up. The Permaculture garden is a lot more than an organic garden. Intelligent design uses free, sustainable energies and resources. It is energy-wise and collaborative to minimise the impact of a site on the surrounding environment.

@xyzsame4081

Yeah, but the likes of Washington let slaves do the work (or else it would have been dirt poor "free" farm workers. The "nobleness" Washington refers to is more aobut the income and status that a large property (worked by someone else under terrible conditions) made possible. It is of course possible that he enjoyed taking care of roses or trees or something. Of course he never put in the _work_ he only planned it and enjoyed the income. The Southern slave holders were for "free trade" (except for sugar cane where Louisiana wanted and got protectionis and tarriffs). The industries of the North saw that differently - and in the North affluent people had also other occupations than agriculture to make a good living. "free trade" worked very well for the Southern model of cash crops (like cotton) grown with help of chattel slavery. Before it was Indigo, sugar cane, tobacco, i think at the time of Washington cotton was not yet _that_ important. Tomas Jefferson (also a slave owning landowner) was obssessed with fertility, they knew they had a problem (and de facto monocultures, but they had the labor to control pests). They later found the islands in South America were the seabirds had left thick layers of guana (bird poop, highly nutritious fertilizer), so that becae the next gold rush, and those islands were stripped of what had taken millenia to form within a few decades. They could have workd with legumes, but they did not know about that - the native Americans were better in conserving fertility. As the 3 Sister legend proves, they KNEW it was good to plant corn with its high demand for nitrogen, beans as nitrogen fixers and squash together.

Something tells me the large amounts of money he earned and the connections he's made makes this lifestyle significantly easier.

I guarantee that this lifestyle can be adapted to anyone of any class; they just have to try (extreme sarcasm) In all fairness, this is a permaculture based garden, and arguably not as effective as some other sustainable methods of growing. Thoreau, the author of Walden, said he lived off a relatively small garden every year for sometime, on only 2 months of labor a year, on eight hour workdays (although this was over 100 years ago). Can anyone up and go within a year from a minimum wage job to sustainable farming? If you moved to an area with free government land grants and built your own sustainable home (like an earthship), with a year in the town as some entry level worker, yeah, you could. (you would probably have to rent with a few people, and live in a shack once you moved; but anyone could. However, the setup would be less than ideal.)

Too many insects usually means too few birds to eat them. Do you have significant wild bird habitat on your property, particularly around your orchard? Planting bird-friendly species and having a designated thicket area, plus of course birdhouses - turned so that winter winds don't blow in through the door - and a water supply will really help without having to deal with domestic poultry.

All of berries (a lot from forrests) get turned into most natural jams and again stored for winter. Forest mushrooms as well. Its a lot of work for mothers, women during August and Sep times but totally worth it. So basically ppl found and mastered lots of ways to have their food from garden last all year round :)

I see you, but there are thousands of others who do it without that leg up.

There is one more problem...not enough land to do this for everyone...especially when people like Gates buying farm land in mass quantities...

@@piotrmajchrzak3861 There is plenty of land available. Look how many people are wasting time and energy watering the grass in their lawns. I see cities planting tons of non nut or fruit bearing trees in medians and along sidewalks. Too many people out here walking around with defeatist attitudes when they can, literally, turn their front and back lawns into food oases with very minimal effort.

Great film - well done, I really enjoy your vids. Andrew has done a great job, no matter how he got there. His story and attitude is very inspirational and positive. We all have our own journeys and need to look for the opportunities that present us in life. Take care.

Wow... Thats my dream life actually.. I envy mr. Andrew martin... And i must say, my mouth is watering while youre eating.. Hope i could have that lifestyle coz im a nature lover as well...

I am in such a depressed and defeated place so don't mind me. I have to say that looks great but I bet he had a lot of financial resources to get that started. I'm working paycheck to paycheck trying to make the mortgage payments to keep the roof over my and my kid's heads. My partner decided to leave me and I have this house that has basically no equity because of the loan. I took Geoff Lawton's permaculture course a few years ago but never really got started designing properties. Just sick of this slave life. Peace and love to you all.

This is so inspiring! I could watch this everyday just to feel more hopeful. I am trying to grow a lot of my food and he is right about the joy that is inherent in that. Wonderful video and I totally agree with it's message.

Sir, this was the most helpful video I've ever seen, in terms of my entire life. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

Love & light to you all! Thank you for this.

Create a world where our deep desire comes from connection with our community and nature, rather than material possession. Well said!

That amazing , honestly with u , you could totally start it now just by using ur backyard , I am planting anything I could on my balcony ,start small , keep working , the change will come , tks for sharing !!

Excellent video! I was in Corporate finance and could not stand the greed and backstabbing. I am so happier learning and installing permaculture principles

I am glad to hear I am not alone in this corporate dilemma.

I live in a village in Central Serbia, and I must say that we do not feel that much this COVID-19 situation because this kind of cultural-life surrounds us. It's a pleasurable experience, simple, enjoyable, you can really feel that your life is fulfilled and you're growing as a human being. 🌞🌷

I want to do this one day. I love plants and gardening.

That's the way to live life.👌 What we all are facing in our day to day life is ratrace. Greedy people are disturbing nature and natural resources, making life depressing and noisy. We need to learn the way of living from this documentary.

Thank you so much for sharing this little film. It's so heartening... A great encouragement to some of us who want to or are planning to make this shift now. Thanks again 😊🙏🏼

Men cannot live on money alone. Physical work is so great and rewarding. I love farming, too.

It's never too late to change our way of life .

Big thumbs up! (and clearly, eight people who viewed this work for Monsanto).

100% correct, Monsanto should be replace by a better eco company. We all dreaming of beauty nature!

A simple life as a farmer. I will start do that.

Food, air, mood, environment, everything! so good for your life (family) Congratulations! 😊

Man may God bless all what you are doing to this only planet we have.

absolutely love it! I feel so trapped in the rat race. I wish I had a piece of land and enough knowledge to do half of what you do.

I am glad to find your channel. I am seriously thinking to get out of big city lifestyle and make meaningful quite for life for myself. I will bring on board my kids too. I can feel my kids don't like city lifestyle too.

I love what your your doing. Wonderful video. We live in California and have been growing food for the last seven years. It's the most amazing feeling to eat what you grow. Thank you for sharing.

I wish I were you ,what joy in heart if I wake up one day and find myself such a place

Enjoyed the film. You have done a good job at presenting an important issue. More examples of diverse people becoming aware of the need for change is a big challenge. You have stepped up to make a difference. Thank you.

I started growing tomatoes 🍅. It was amazing and made me happy seeing it thinking “I grew that” 😁

I'm so inspired by you all. Thank you!

definitely will watch it many many times. what a dream life.
