I am inspired by the joy you have in utilizing the earth. I can’t help smiling at your enthusiasm.
I ❤ Tuck! He’s a perfect blend and protector to your permaculture.
Definitely permaculture and food forest – even inside a large grow house ! Plant, grow, harvest, enjoy !!!
Tuck!❤❤❤
What do you possibly do with all of that food?
Your garden is absolutely stunning James and Tucker! 😍🙌🍅
Thanks to you and Tuck ….love your info videos,,, And Congrats on your great Harvest.
❤for Tuck
We grow haskaps and strawberries at the feet of some dwarf apple and plum trees, and by the time the berries are done being picked the melons are ready to sprawl that area. All we do is allow the leaf litter to overwinter on the beds (maple trees = loads of leaves) and by spring they are so dry they basically disintegrate on their own, so we just blend them back into the ground. Then we add a good forest mulch on top, and throw in some chicken manure to jumpstart the strawberries. The plants all seem to grow and produce fine year after year, and have done so for the past 6 years.

You have the coolest backyard food forest ever! We all need to do this
You have inspired and encouraged me so much over the years that I am gardening this way now this year and I am blown away by the success! I have not grocery shopped at all this summer! We eat what The Lord has provided by gardening this way. I just ordered Berry plants if every kind imaginable! I can’t wait to plant them. Thanks James and Tuck, you’re the best!
Of all the gardening channels, the food forest concept appeals the most to me.
❤❤❤❤Tuck❤❤❤❤
Do you have a map of your garden/food forest to help you keep track of what's what and what needs what to be done when?
💖💖💖💖💖💖
Good video
❤
I also love your explanation and perfect example of a permaculture. Your explanation of beneficial connections really struck a cord for me too. It doesn’t just apply to gardening, but the workplace and life in general. It explains our interconnections, just like the connections of the roots of trees and plants, in a forest. Anyway, it’s what differentiates a healthy environment from a toxic one.
😂That sunflower! That was something to behold. It was twice your height! And, the leaves were monstrously big! I think it speaks to what's happening in the soil below. It is very, very happy. Quite a testament to permaculture principles and to your implementing them, James. Your food forest and the attention to it is such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, insight, and passion. And ❤ to Tuck!
So incredibly proud of your journey thus far been watching from the begining (2012)and WOW, this year is truly a reward for all the years of work put in. I remember when you planted those fruit trees where just twigs❤So so happy for you! ❤
So how do you preserve all this harvest?
Yaaasss! My loofah is climbing on my guava tree, my winged beans are climbing on my keiffer lime. Great !!! Thanks, James and Tuck! I enjoy watching your super-productive garden.❤🎉
i sure hope my hazelnut babies pull through- i killed the first batch that must have ran out of air when the dirt compacted in the pots and this time have them in a more sandy /pumice peat moss mix i think it will be hard to fail so they're ready to plant out when they get more hardy… they start as thin twig like plants from the nursery.
did you start yours young or did you have older starts?
💚 Beautiful, multi-level Food Forest! One thing you rarely mention, is what you DO with all that abundance? Do you freeze, freeze-dry, can, sell to a restaurant, give away, do a CSA, donate to food bank? 💚
we can't do ground level gardening without inground wire protection from voles here so we're building out a perennial+annual raised bed forest and greenhouse except for some of the trees. The greenhouse is a cattlepanel trelis roof and the outside side connects to a cattle panel tunnel trellis for plants that don't need as much heat as in the green house. we're in a cool summer coastal town zone 9b
spent most of the time buliding and researching this year, but will really really be rolling with planting every space out next season, very exciting even though it's a smaller space than what we see you have on camera.
just built a pumpkin mound in the small front yard, gonna have some festive pumpkin plant going for october.
wow what pear tree is that? so many fruit but so small tree
