PERMACULTURE Farmer Shares How To GROW HEALTHY FOOD Yourself

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Julian is a permaculture farmer who knows how to grow healthy food yourself. You could say he farms like our forefathers in the mountains of Japan. Here, he shares seven secrets that allow him to grow amazingy healthy food. Actually, he manages without machines on his farm. No tractors, no weed whackers, no tillers, zero fossil fuels. It's a revolution and really a revelation once you see it. Everything is done by hand and for good reason as you'll find out. One could call his style of farming 'primitive' were it not for the unique blend of Permaculture, Japanese Natural Farming, and Syntropic Agriculture that make the farm so incredibly well designed and efficiency run so that the amount of work to be done actually decreases over time. You go figure how that's possible, or just watch the video.

7:51 It's beautiful!
Thank you so much for watching and supporting my channel. There's many reasons for why these type of videos are not more prominent across KZread. First off they promote a non-monetary, non-competitive, non-capitalist way of living which is antithetical to KZread's goal of making money. Also, making high-quality films like this one takes A LOT of time and effort (including travel...which in this case required me to travel 1000km to get to Julian's place) and since it's not generating income via ad revenue, it's hard to justify producing videos like this one from a financial viewpoint alone. I still want to believe that it's possible to make films that can inspire change, but I need the support of people like YOU. My videos are entirely self-funded at this point and it's not going to be possible to sustain this forever. So join my Patreon to support me on a monthly basis with an amount equivalent to what it costs to buy a Starbucks Latte or whatever nice thing like that, and this would allow me to really capture all the amazing stories of regeneration that can be told across Japan and beyond. In this way you can actually help foster change wherever you are in the world reading this. There's plenty of perks as well, like a full 90min uncut tour of Julian's farm, so go check out my Patreon now :)

    Thomas Kahler This man knows how to teach. Everything is in the form of truncated sentences. A pupil must desire knowledge; A pupil must insist on wisdom. If the teacher gives all the answers, the students are dumbed down, hence, entitled, hence, unwilling and unmotivated to search out the solutions for their own problems. This man comprehends wisdom. The soil simply concurs.

    Hi guys, I absolutely love your series on natural farmers in Japan. So inspiring! One piece of the puzzle is missing though. How do they sustain themselves? Do they sell their produce? Do they have a registered agri company or just produce as a non-professional? Do they have other sources of income? Expenses is not just eating: car truck/insurance, taxes, education if children, health... If we could maybe have some more info about that part, which is less glamourish but very important, I think it would help a lot of us to go a step further towards this kind of lifestyle!

I think Julian mentioned his name a few times during the tour, but I cut it out of this 10min video as I tried to keep everything as easy to follow as possible without references to people/places/movements that not everyone would be aware of. Not sure whether that's taking away too much from the visits, but I try to be a broad church :) Thanks for commenting though, I hope somebody reading this will go and read the book!

    I spoke with a man in Arizona that said the original inhabitants there would grow in the forest there, semibiotic, where one plant depended on another. The land was farmed with vines supported by trees, the leaf litter stayed on the ground, prescribed burns took place. No tilling or digging. He is practicing the same techniques. The original tribe of people were sustained for at least 1,000 years. Pests were never an issue.

Just FYI, videos with subtitles tend to be viewed less, which is obviously something I need to factor in as a creator.
