[@MatthiasHautmann]

What a great and inspiring insight. Thx for sharing! I would be curious about the costs and how you afford all of this...

[@julesalbers6489]

Dear Dutch farmer, this looks absolute geweldig !!! Can we get in touch since we have similar plans on a similar plot near Oliveira do hospital.

[@pracha95]

We need drone footage of how things are looking now. Maybe a current farm tour of what worked, what hasn't. What plants have died. Don't be afraid to show failures. That is how we will learn.

What is so awesome is that you guys focused on the land and the food first. So many would have sought comfort in a house first, whereas you took your time to understand the land. Then you can finally build a residence that speaks to your symbiotic understanding of your land. Well done! Awesome work!

[@shelleyhender8537]

Bless you both for raising your 2 children around the garden, and incorporating them into daily life! I too was extremely fortunate to be raised by parents who encouraged us to be in the garden, and spend as much time together as possible! Your wife and yourself remind me of my own parents, in that they did EVERY project together, no matter how large/small. It was a very important example for my brothers and I, and has helped incorporate such values into our own lives, as well as, those of our families! It’s truly beautiful to see you work so well as a team and family, as you build your dream together! I wish you and your family many joyful memories, and much success in the days and years to come!🇨🇦☺🇨🇦

Today I know that is one of the many vices humanity is suffering from. Listening to people and learning from them is the way to understanding, tolerance and peace. I appreciate your enthusiasm, so I hope you are open to new ideas that might enrich your faith and life.

Couldn’t agree more. This looks awesome. And you’re doing it in a way that makes a lot of sense. Take care of the land first and than your own habitat. A lot of people do it the other way around resulting in dreams washed away when it starts to rain.

[@islamisthetruewaytogod6812]

Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you very much for your time. Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them). Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI). Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy. Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI). Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad). Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning! Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures. Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement. It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them. (19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).. God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.” (2:136 / Translated by Community) Salam (Peace) -----------------------------

[@thenodiggardener]

Wonderful watching it evolve like that. Those aerial shots are really great for showing the perspective of it all together.

[@carsonarrowsmith3795]

What you've accomplished in a year is really inspiring. I'm looking forward to seeing how you continue to develop your property.

Thank you!

Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you very much for your time. Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them). Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI). Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy. Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI). Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad). Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning! Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures. Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement. It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them. (19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).. God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.” (2:136 / Translated by Community) Salam (Peace) -----------------------------

with no help? this angers me a bit as i clearly saw the guy in the excavator making the swells, the paths, the terrace and dig the holes for the initial trees and the road! He was invisible to you?

[@lieuwina]

Your homestead is amazing and what you have accomplished in one year is an eye opener to some of us. Your drive, ambition, hard work is the proof of the pudding. The work and observation of the land, in rain season, summer, winter, though you did not mention a Autumn, is a very valuable lesson to teaching people who would buy land to do this, and follow what you did is a valuable lesson that would teach us in the long run, observe and you wont have mistakes. I congratulate you, and your wife on the hard work you have done and what a team. What you have done in this past year makes me wonder just what you both will accomplish in the next year. Thank you for sharing and can not wait to see the next part of the adventure.

What a great, and eagerly anticipated, episode! You guys make it look easy. But of course, there is so much work that goes into a homestead. Wish you all the best on this journey!

[@islamisthetruewaytogod6812]

Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you very much for your time. Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them). Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI). Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy. Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI). Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad). Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning! Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures. Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement. It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them. (19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).. God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.” (2:136 / Translated by Community) Salam (Peace) -----------------------------

Fantastisch, zo inspirerend. Mijn handen beginnen altijd te jeuken van dit soort video's, ik heb gelijk zin om thuis aan de slag te gaan in de tuin. Bedankt voor het delen van jullie avontuur, en het vele werk dat je steekt in het maken van deze video's. 🙏

[@jokevasconcellos6930]

Yay.....you're back. Awesome job ....huge amount of effort... And very impressive. Aerial views gives great perspective o the layout. Beautiful area. You really know how important it is to make the best use of every aspect Of the land./weather/.😊 Good luck on future plans 🎉

[@alexthao11]

This is literally paradise. I will one day have a homestead like this, absolutely beautiful dude. Great work 🙌

[@educatortrainer6605]

Amazing, hard working, labor of love❤❤❤. You are the best. Glad I found your channel.

[@Alex-rl1gl]

You've got an amazing vision, you are an artist. You turned dust into gold. Congrats man. I'm also planning to move away from the city to the countryside, next year and build a homestead. Sadly I don't have the vision you have for designing everything.

[@pipfox7834]

Hi Alex - one thing I notice about this family project in Portugal: they did lots of research before they started, and you can do that too. If you haven't grown your own food etc before, you can learn a lot by doing some volunteering at other established Food Forests. Or you could start a mini project with others right where you are, on some donated land (local council?). Councils are more interested/helpful with this than they used to be! Doing it this way means you get solid experience in all kinds of aspects before you leave your current home base, plus you make excellent contacts with anyone who might like to come and *help your project* later. The WWOOF model provides basic accommodation in exchange for free labour, there are other similar sites to connect with likeminded helpers. Good luck!

[@Alex-rl1gl]

@@pipfox7834 Thanks for your reply. I've got a bit of experience growing my own food. I've rented a 50sqm plot of land from the council about 4 years ago and I've been growing vegetables using the no-dig method. My problem is not with growing but with planning and designing my new and much bigger garden

[@shanekawallace-graham2190]

My heart is so so so happy for you and your family. I look forward to seeing the expansion. Thank you for sharing, it really keeps my hope alive that one day I can indeed have and live on a nature filled piece of land. Home on a Homestead is my dream life.

[@TheDutchFarmer]

Thank you! Appreciate it. Good luck on your journey!

Excellent video in every way! Thank you so much for putting all this together, and perhaps especially for having the courage, vision and skill to do so.

[@lagringa7518]

Can't wait to see the evolution of this property! Love your detailed research and aspirations for the future and the pros and cons you'll learn about your property in the future. Keep documenting, we will all benefit! 😊

Este vídeo é o exemplo do que podemos fazer pelo nosso planeta! Com trabalho , dedicação e sabedoria um pedaço de terra com poucas condições se transformou num pequeno Paraíso! Obrigada a ti e á tua família por trazer um bocadinho de céu ao meu país 🙏🙏 Que fiques por longos anos e transformes tudo á tua passagem !❤❤ Bem haja!❤❤ Namastê 💖😘

[@sylmarie6494]

I'm so excited for you guys and to see your progress. I know how much work you're all doing and sometimes it might feel like there's no ending, but I want to encourage you to keep going. You're doing a great work, not just for your family, but for the wildlife and the rest of humanity. A BIG THANK YOU! Sending you all a lot of love!🥰❤

[@TheDutchFarmer]

Thank you so much for the kind words! Appreciate it!

[@papajeff5486]

My dream on a video, SHEESH, thank you. I have been dreaming about making a home that supports the biosphere wrapped around my home. I wanted to make every move, every part of the building, the development, to supplement and support the life of the land. Thank you for sharing. From northern Kentucky

[@AprilJMoon]

There IS no end when working with the land. The initial planning and laying out are the hardest parts of the work, but then there is a forever of repair, planting, nurturing and reaping. But the 2nd part of the continuous work is the lifestyle part, living in and with nature, which many would consider an idyllic luxury... including me

[@raktoda707]

Wow you guys...not just dreamers, doers ...unstoppable never say die..with beautiful taste in plants,trees, design, landscaping.Great dog, fine children...truly heaven on Earth

[@LucasOliveira-fl7tt]

Great video! Thanks Moreno and Family!

[@DonDaam]

Hey Moreno! Amazing to follow your families journey. Would be interesting to learn how you manage day-to-day life in this startup phase. For example, how is living in a caravan in Portuguese summer? Or just simple things like how sanitation is organized (laundry, shower, toilets, drinking water). Keep up the good work!

natural shapes integrated in design of the landscape. this is some top notch content.

[@IgorAkaTheBeast]

I love this video! All the progress condensed into 24 minutes, so satisfying to watch. Though, one thing I noticed were some trees with fine featherlike leaves. I hope for you that they are not Persian silk trees (I think the Portuguese call them “Mimosa“) because they are an invasive species and tend to outgrow and overtake other tree species. I saw them at the "Project Kamp" KZbin channel and they have a massive problem with them. I wish you the very best for your future in Portugal!

[@simonpannett8810]

Really impressed by what you have done here. The land has so little organic content but you have made the best of the water and simple areas of irrigated land to provide food, nature and the cover! Well done and very inspiring!

100% bro that’s the one instinct that’s never failed the society and women still fight back when they are the ones who should be teaching men to love as a mom , wife , daughter. And they still think we have it easy 😂.

Very inspiring, it really takes a lot of patience to build a beautiful home with nature around it. It's very satisfying when you see your achievements grow and what it has become. Keep up the good work.

Nice Video! Just one Tipp: The Ducks will ruin the water quality in the pond. Maybe give them a little extra pond, which can have really dirty water. Chicken need good water quality. That´s why you dont combine chicken and ducks usually. Best wishes

[@utahiggs]

Fantastic transformation, look forward to seeing how things look 5 and 10 years from now - it will be an oasis that will serve as an example of what can be done!

[@Deputydog-xk5jl]

Nice to see a family working together and accomplishing so much! Nicely done sir!

[@KwamehKG]

Absolutely amazing! You have given me valuable ideas on transforming some barren land somewhere. Thank you!

[@philipdamask2279]

Very nice video. It shows good planning and adoption capability. I think others who are contemplating such an adventure would be interested in the costs you are incurring for the excavator, the mulch, the water delivery systems, etc. You accomplished an incredible amount of work for 1 year.

[@mademoisellekaya1438]

I guess that they sold their house and put that into their new homestead.. But really, that is just a guess and nothing more. For all you know, they have inherited. In any case, they did an amazing job, and I, for one, am proud of what they have done in just 1 year, and somehow they show where their roots are from, imho anyways 👌😃
