How to start a farm when land is expensive or inaccessible? This is a question that many people are asking and perhaps Treehouse Farm Collective in Colorado can provide at least one possible model for how they started their farm in Colorado where land is out of reach for most beginning farmers. When watching this it's hard not to believe that collaborative agriculture like this will have a prominent place in our future!

Wow! knowing this exists makes me happy. Definitely looks like a promising model for the future. Would love to see more of it happening around the world.

Amazing. I'm in a partnership where one does vegatables and CEA microgreens, one does exotic mushrooms, one is a sheep farmer and the Land owner. We all have different skills, yet work together for a common goal. I see the value of this model. I wish the lovely folk from Treehouse farm collective all the best for the future.

So many positives to this type of collective farming. Sharing of resources physical and skills based along with a shared philosophy. These people understand the value of community.

Love it, and it makes so much sense knowing that many market gardeners model their businesses on areas that are far smaller than most existing agricultural properties. You did well showing the benefits of daily social contact with your farmer-neighbours, and that's important knowing you don't have to choose between sacrificing that for proper market gardening scale or the space and colocative compromises of yard-based urban farming.

I think these collaborative examples are so valuable, especially for young farmers like myself considering starting a business but concerned with the prospect of long-term sustainability in the current climate were all facing. I hope we can be inspired & motivated to explore these kinds of opportunities with our fellow farming friends.

Any advise on a good internship in Kentucky? Some are paid and some are not, obviously but they are very diverse. From grain to milking cows LOL I just want to work with someone on growing vegetables and things alike. I'm super interested in learning a lot about soil. I know some but from watching your videos you taught me that I don't know enough LOL. I don't live there yet but plan to. Looking for property currently. Had no idea you were in Kentucky until recently, been watching you for a while now... Anyway man, any suggestions would be great and hey if you need help just let me know. My wife and I both work but what I would really like to do is buy something that is affordable so that I could quit my job and go intern; while applying what I've learned and will be learning to my own farm. Hopefully I'll get paid a little bit while doing so. By the way I want to thank you for all your videos, I'm pretty sure I've stored every syllable of everything you've said informatively LOL you've taught me a lot and thank you!

Hey man, a bit of an off the wall question. At the beginning of the video I noticed your hat. Where did you purchase your hats? My logo would fit perfectly inside that patch but I haven’t found a site that offers that shape. Thank you! Keep on keepin on

Is the irrigation pond lined … how is it sealed to hold water? Thanks for sharing the video
@DanSolowastaken
@DanSolowastaken 2 жыл бұрын
They don't always need to be. Water in water out. Some are clay lined if that is needed. If it's alluvial soil there is likely more than enough clay as is.
@Electedsphinx40
@Electedsphinx40 Жыл бұрын
Just from the overhead camera view it looks clay lined but I also see signs of a small seepage from the grasses on the lower elevations of the land visible in the overhead shots(top right corner from viewers perspective) It's relatively small and at most is actually helping the soil, but it may cause erosion if your native soil is sandy instead of clay and cause a sinkhole. although if your land has very deep topsoil through years of rebuilding the soils biology erosion won't be an issue with the seepage

How long is your lease with the land owners?
@franek_izerski
@franek_izerski 2 жыл бұрын
In the video, Helen said five years, but that she was hoping that, after these initial five years, there is enough trust from the land owners to go with a lease for a longer period.

With the infrastructure already evident I see no reason the land owners wouldn't go for a longer lease, it would be dumb not too😀

Hey Jesse! I wanted to order your book, but I see you only ship to US/CA. We're from Romania, Europe. Is there a way we can order the ebook from your website insted of going through Amazon?
@notillgrowers
@notillgrowers 2 жыл бұрын
Hi! So we can technically ship to Romania but it is wildly expensive so I recommend supporting a small local book seller or ag group who sells books over there. Or for the e-book you have to get it through amazon, yeah . hope that helps!

Helen seem like the pivot point of the conflict resolution? If anyone gets me? I feel like Helen and needing conflict resolution comes up a bit more than the other three operations do with one another.
