How To Create A Completely Sustainable Farm + Tour | Costa Rica

In the jungle of Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica, lies a completely sustainable farm that is more of a paradise than anything. Ana of Finca Tierra gives me a tour of her farm and teaches me all about how she created her sustainable farm for cheap.

I love guanabana, it is hard to describe the flavor or compare it to another fruit. I wish it was easier to find. Great video, thank you

[@VeggiePilot]

It’s a very tasty fruit! Thanks Pat!

[@janelles8778]

Looks similar to custard apples we have in Australia 😊

[@cameronmackey6068]

My wife and kids visited this farm. Ana's sister was amazing to us. We can't wait to get back for a course...

[@permacultureinthetropics]

Thank you Matt! The video looks great and the message is clear. We loved having you with us, come back soon! 💚🌎✈️

Yeah, I love the sustainability. Way cool way to handle compost and fertilizer and chicken feed. I'm looking to expat to Costa Rica and buy land and homestead. I had heard of these flys before, and how they are not vectors. Man, I hope I can get there do it. Start a new life for my dog and I. Im in NE Tennessee, was going to get land in this region of Appalachia and homestead, but I realize I need to get out of the US. I need to start over, all new everything, and I can do it through the Pensionado residency cause I got service connected disability enough. I've always wanted a self sustaining homestead as practical as possible. Ill grow delicious fruit, probably bamboo too, can make anything out of bamboo. Im looking to have a year round stream for swimming, to feed a aqua whatever system with fish and plants and maybe a pond, and to produce hopefully all my electricity through micro hydro power. Ive lived most my adult life off grid sometimes with zero electricity for long periods of time. The constant charging of hydro, means a smaller battery bank can last longer. That's my theory anyway. Yeah, I got nothing but great reasons to expat to Costa Rica and purchase a homestead there. Use my van to get there and check it all out once Im ready.

What a beautiful video! I appreciate your thoughts on creating a nutrition chart and using that to help decide what to grow. Pura Vida!

[@NateGolon]

This is the best video you’ve ever made. Very informative and aspirational! What an amazing life choice to live like that! Thanks for posting this

[@VeggiePilot]

Thanks Nate! 😭 I agree it’s my best!

[@WeAreVissering]

Hi Matt, nice to see you also in KZbin. You might not remember me but I happened to work with you for a freelance job back in Dubai. Nice content! I wish we can all live in a self sustainable life. The fruit you tried called "Guyabano" in Philippines one of my favourite tropical fruit. :)

[@VeggiePilot]

Hi! So good to hear from you! Glad you are doing well!

[@WeAreVissering]

@@VeggiePilot - Hey Matt, what kind or model of camera do you use for vlogging? Thank you!

[@nananananabatman]

So awesome. They're living the dream. Hope I can visit one day!

[@chisokcheatv]

Appreciate this life with natural place

[@lenifromthewhitecottage2963]

Beautiful farm and an amazing thing to strive for! 😍👍

[@TobinOsusky]

Great video and awesome tour from Ana! A property that inspires and educates but also helps those of us with similar goals, see the long term results of our current efforts. Thanks!!

[@annchee1329]

A very inspirational permaculture land. Did you grow all the fruits and vegetables, or did it come with the land?

[@neobiblismo]

Saludos y bendiciones. Muy buen trabajo en la creación de contenido de calidad.

I love her ... a smile and gratitude From a universal sister

[@marytica123]

WONDERFUL ! Wish we were young enough to do this, but in our 70's now - too old, too weak, too late...

[@ktlemongrass5129]

If you do end up making the move there you’ll be able to still collect social security & won’t have to pay for their universal healthcare because you’re over 65. I’ve seen gardeners charge $60 a month for working your garden 4 hours, twice a week. ❤

[@lilspittin313]

Those almonds are huge wow

[@wild_cub_times]

Amazing! I wonder if that is a possibility in the north, where winters happen :D

[@JasmineChannelTV]

[@jeevamfarms]

Very nice. But, these bamboo houses last during hurricanes ?

[@k4door789]

No Hurricane in Costa Rica

[@souravbhadra9301]

I know an Island They provide all amenities real cheap as hell You can even live there with little to no cost.

[@Fashionsoapsanwax]

Donde en Costa rica es esto? Se puede visitar?

[@apothecgypsy888]

My DREAM!

[@alexmason420]

I agreeeeeeeeeee

[@julioarrieta6295]

Nice!!! where in Costarica is Finca Tierra

[@VeggiePilot]

It’s in Puerto Viejo!

[@veganbetty8896]

Great video! What’s the reason for the chickens though? Is it not a vegan farm?

[@VeggiePilot]

I don’t think they are completely vegan. They don’t eat the chickens but they might eat the eggs.

[@EZENS.]

Good point ~

[@permacultureinthetropics]

Hi, we eat the eggs. But in our courses we offer vegan diet and gluten free.

[@marinfamily2541]

What is the name of the cherry she was eating??? I grew up with those in Florida and I can’t find the name of it anywhere!

[@federicoandre5717]

It's called Pitanga. Apparently also known as Suriname cherry, or Star cherry

[@vintran9777]

How many plot of those warm forest rich lands do 8 billion people on earth need to sustain itself??? Consider yourself the lucky one.

[@dougdileo4727]

nice video but they never spoke of how they did sustainable farming.. ???

[@HawaiiLimey]

Fantastic achievement but it is not possible to meet your nutritional requirements based solely upon a plant based diet. B12 and L-carnitine are but two of many not found in vegan diets.

[@dianagogoladze4376]

[@VeggiePilot]

Thank you!

[@leonjimenez2844]

everything awesome except for the plant based diet

[@yo2trader539]

Modern slavery...well said.

[@desmomotodesmomoto2033]

You are so disconnected from nature and human natural diet.

[@AliensKillDevils.]

Please no killing.
