I saw the picture and immediate recognized it was ECHO. I'd never been to there or even Florida but absolutely understand their impact to many subsistence farmers and gardeners throughout the Global South. They were kind enough to send me Tarwi almost a decade ago which grew well in the cool subtropical climate of San Francisco.

I appreciate all of these videos on how to grow veggies in FL. I'm still looking for a way to grow tomatoes in FL. Apparently it really is a hit & miss project here. In MO I've raised 12 tomato plants and harvested as many as 300 (roma) from one plant. The difference in climate/soil is unreal. The peppers are easy to grow here. I've so much to learn about this climate. I'm watching different videos on how to grow veggies here and everything is different. Since I've moved here I would starve without a store. Thankfully, videos such as this are helping me adjust to this very different climate. Thank you Pete Kanaris!

[@WickedChicken83]

I’ve been trying to get the timing right on our property for three years. This year I am not wasting time or space waiting for the weather to change. Just plant. I’m sowing seeds every few weeks of everything if there’s open space. We were lucky enough to get a mulberry tree from a friend, and turned that one tree into 16 trees. By last summer they were quite large And cast a canopy over the annual veggie beds and we did a lot better through the summer. I expect this summer to be more abundant than ever. Try to get a canopy established for late afternoon sun. Best of growing to you!!

What a lovely farm. And it's great to see that they have begun experimenting on rice production. In the Philippines, I hail from a region north of Manila w/c is called the rice granary region of the Philippines. The vivid bright green colour of the rice paddies is very soothing to the eyes. As an aside, my big sister used to own a small tilapia farm in which ducks are free to roam around to help fertilise the pond. It's a pity that I didn't get to travel much to these wonderful farms every time I visited my niece who used to live in Fl. Anyway, as always thanks for yet another excellent video!
