May in My Permaculture Garden

[@ErikLeed]

Angela, your work leading folks forward through permaculture and as a woman warrior is really tremendous and inspiring!!!! Lots of love from Vancouver Island!💗❤‍🔥👐

I really enjoy you taking us through your garden as you do your chores. It helps to give a sense of what goes into maintaining a beautiful and bountiful food forest such as yours. I would be interested in seeing more "come do chores with me" (it's a working title, I know) videos.

Texture is the way to go! I've gotten tired of thinking of bloom times and colors alone. First of all, I never seem to get bloom times and colors "right!" Especially this past fall and winter, I've spent time just appreciating the texture, bark color, and changing foliage color in the garden. I'm tickled pink when something blooms, don't get me wrong! And my violets are my darlings. But whooeee, wintered-over forbs and a bright green young weeping willow! Be still my heart.

So beautiful! I love that you put multiple types and shapes of foliage to create beauty even when there are no bloom! I’ve been thinking mainly of flowers but love the added aesthetic design idea of foliage! It truly looks like a beautiful work of living art even without the blooms! Always love your videos and learning from you and seeing what you’ve done and what’s growing and changing! I am shooting for exactly this type of garden/lifestyle!

Thanks from Sacratomato for sharing!

[@RevLetaLee]

Beautiful. I aspire to this, and definitely working on it. Thanks for showing/teaching the possibility.

I love this video! I got so inspired! Thank you

Have you ever considered keeping silk worms? I know you have a source of lots of mulberry leaves, which is what they eat. Some people raise them to feed the worms to pet reptiles, but maybe you could use them for silk! (The grubs that are boiled inside their cocoons as a by-product of silk manufacturing are also edible, you can find them canned in some asian grocery stores)

Angela, your garden is amazing. I love how it all flows naturally. I can’t recall. Do you keep bees? I’m thinking about getting bees from my homestead. There weren’t a lot of bees around and late April early May. So I ended up hand pollinating all my strawberry flowers. Luckily the bees came back and now they’re pollinating my blueberries and raspberries. Thanks for the tip on the paw paws. Might have to put a paw paw tree in my backyard. Thanks again all my best.

[@traryvery8851]

Yes she does have bees and has a number of videos about them 😀

[@ParkrosePermaculture]

I have two top bar hives! I have several vids on beekeeping!

[@growinginportland]

@@ParkrosePermaculture Nice. I'll look for those. I'll be doing my first host video soon. I've decided to introduce myself to the world.

[@tmzumba]

I love your work Angela. ❤ I haven’t been watching as much lately, because I’ve been going through a lot in my personal life. But I was so happy to see this video on my feed today.

[@coollizzylou]

This was absolutely delightful!!! And very timely! I’m going to help set up a community garden that had fallen into disrepair and I’m hoping to integrate some permaculture concepts and get my hands dirty with some real life experience!! Your work is such an inspiration thank you for sharing!!

[@RiceTeaLover]

I love these videos so much, they're my favorite. Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden with us! I get so many ideas! 🥰😍

[@ParkrosePermaculture]

I'm so glad! ☺️☺️☺️

[@stacykrett]

The ducks always sound like they're cracking up in the background...tickles me every time.

[@miabagley2202]

Lovely video and very informative. Do you have any concerns of pollution next to a busy street? My garden is in the front beside a busy street. It’s the only place I have sun. I’ve been choosing not to worry bit keep seeing people say they wouldn’t use food that came from a garden near a busy road.

[@09echols]

I remember last summer you had an issue with a neighbor who harvested all of the fruit from one of your front trees. Do you have a plan to prevent that this year?

[@ParkrosePermaculture]

Thanks for asking! I'm thinking about this this year. I don't have a great solution. I may put up a sign? I bought cameras but I don't know if that'll serve any purpose bc I sure wouldn't call the cops on someone stealing food. Maybe a deterrent?

[@thecoffelady]

How do you protect your persimmons from crows. One crow ate almost 95% of my harvest last year

Love your channel, thank you for everything you do. Curious your thoughts on this content, vegan thing aside, do you feel that there's more to say in response to this commenter on permaculture design? I always appreciate your knowledge and perspective and this video left me wanting to understand the "divide" a bit better. Are there perma-bros capable of leaning into fair share without writing it off as "communism"? Is the split all about monetizing PDCs, lifestyle/political ideology, and where is the common ground that makes any version of permaculture more attractive than our current systems? Is there a way to backtrack on the "colonization" of the principles, stop arguing over who "owns" permaculture, and focus more on making it more accessible to people who want to learn to do better? Or is the "controversy" good for creating a dialogue and peaking people's interest? Sorry, thinking out loud, a little rambling. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWS7qaeJq61qptUsi=lrKURRNMzdnouyiT
