Planting Perennial Vegetables | Plants for Self-Sufficiency

The best medicine for the garden, is the gardener! Jess from Roots and Refuge farm always says that! That was my introduction to KZbin homesteading! I’m now addicted

[@NearbyVeggies]

I’m inclined to agree with Jess. 😊

I love oca…we call them yams in NZ. They’re a favourite and a bit special. 😮delicious the roast lamb or baked with other verges for a salad..

[@NearbyVeggies]

We love them too though we’ll have to wait and see how they handled the heat of our summer. Fingers crossed 🤞

To be honest I thought your barn looked pretty well made. Looking functional too...Like you could dry wood in there if you needed. Could be a fixer-upper if you need to do something more with it.

[@NearbyVeggies]

The barn is in great shape and we use it all the time. Hopefully we'll get more done with it after we restore the main house.

Hello and happy new year to my English friends who bought a farm in Portugal! I watch your videos from a stationery store in Buenos Aires, and I envy you so much.😇 I'm locked up all day and your videos open a fresh and fun window into a life full of nature. I hope you continue to have a good time and know it, yours is a privilege in this crazy world. Greetings and see you always, because I will continue to watch the videos that you upload. P.S. Do something so that no more water enters the tool room and the garage. translated by google, because my english is as good as your portuguese 😀

Glad to see you are using the woodchip mulch. I wouldn't garden without it.

[@NearbyVeggies]

Amazing material. We only wish we could buy a lorry load as we barely make enough. 😊

[@roselynwilliams2]

I wish I had watched videos like this when we moved to Nebraska, USA 15 years ago and my mother-in-law had me take over her garden. She looked out her bedroom window and said, "oh my, I have never seen so many weeds in my life." The next year I did much better but had very little to show for it. I am not a dedicated farmer. We have since moved back to Oregon, live in a condo, and visit a local produce farm for fresh vegetables and fruit. It's only a couple miles drive.

[@NearbyVeggies]

Thank you. You gave it your best shot and that’s wonderful. 😊

[@anavarela8878]

What a nice garden, a lot of work but very rewarding

[@NearbyVeggies]

Lovely perennial veggies! I've been very curious about the egyptian walking onion, but haven't been able to find a source in EU. If Gary wouldn't mind selling me some, or if anyone knows of a source, I'd love to know. Thanks!

[@NearbyVeggies]

Maybe Gary will get in touch. I’ve not met him or been in direct contact with him either. Hopefully we’ll have enough to share in a couple of years. And maybe someone here will help you. Keep watching and if I find out I’ll let you know. 👍

[@poosmate]

Great video again! Love the thought of our food replanting itself so we don't have to, great concept for aging gardeners as we know there will come a day when we can't do as much as we once could. Take care, Poo

[@NearbyVeggies]

There are so many different vegetables that are perennial and beautiful plants into the bargain. It makes gardening a lot easier. Thanks for watching, Poo. 🤠

[@martiennaus]

Wat ontzettend leuk om jullie te volgen! Mag ik vragen naar jullie leeftijd? Wij zijn 71 en 70 jaar en zeggen tegen elkaar:”als we tien jaar jonger waren dan zouden we dit ook wel willen doen!” Tuinieren, zelf je groenten en fruit verbouwen, nieuwe dingen ontdekken, geweldig! Waar precies wonen jullie, of wil je dat niet bekend maken? Wij wonen in een klein dorp in het zuiden van Nederland. Vriendelijke groet uit Nederland Mieke en Martien

[@NearbyVeggies]

We have some Dutch friends who are a bit older than you who have just created a vegetable garden. Let your ability be your guide rather than a number. We are not retired and as you know, a lady never reveals her age 😊 We live in the Coimbra district, east of the city of Coimbra. Thank you for watching and enjoying the channel. 👍

I “studied” permaculture in California over 10 years ago and I didn’t fully understand it thank you for showing us practical real life permaculture how it’s done! Would you be able to feed yourselves mostly from this garden once it’s more mature? Or would it supplement your food supply?

[@NearbyVeggies]

We hope to grow enough vegetables for ourselves and some to share. We’re aiming to be self sufficient with vegetables and get all our other food sources from local suppliers and our local community. 😊

[@GingirGhoststar]

We love your videos. We are very interested in leaving the US, and Portugal is on our radar. We're stuck trying to decide if giving up the boat is what we want, or do we give up the small self sufficient farm dream.

[@NearbyVeggies]

Thank you for watching. If you have to give up doing something, then it’s probably a choice you’re not ready for … yet. We got excited when we thought about selling the boat as it allowed us to pursue new dreams, although it was a small boat with memories of great big adventures 😊

[@GingirGhoststar]

@@NearbyVeggies That's a great way to look at it. Thank you!

[@NearbyVeggies]

Keep us posted 😊

[@moonhunter9993]

I love your approach to gardening. No neat rows please or bare "raked" beds... it looks so much more natural and the plants clearly love it.

[@NearbyVeggies]

It’s really fun too as plants pop up in surprise places. The vegetable plants are so pretty in their own right. And as in nature there are no straight rows. They weave among each other. 👍😊

Quite often, I have to check back on these videos to see where I planted things or I wait until the plant grows into an identifiable size. 😊

I saw you making orange juice, is good but be careful about it because the sugar in the orange goes very fast in your body and the sugar goes high rapidly and the best is to eat the orange alone, count how many oranges you need to have a glass full is a lot the doctor told me that even when I don’t have diabetes. Is my humble advice 😊

Thank you. Luckily we’re both in great health. 😊👍

Lots of things I have never heard of but In Canada we don't have all those choices.

[@Marta22860]

hello, what is the straw on top of the planted plants for?

[@NearbyVeggies]

It’s a mulch to help keep the moisture in the soil, slow down the weeds and reduces soil erosion. It’s quite effective. Eventually it breaks down and composts. 👍😊

Have you had any luck sourcing a Szechuan pepper yet? If not (and if it's any use) there is a nursery in France that lists both Zanthoxylum schinifolium and Z.simulans, although it looks like only simulans is in stock at the moment (Euros 19). Not sure if they deliver though, which might mean a road trip. 🛻 I'll keep an eye out for you for other continental European suppliers 👀- there must be some in Spain or Portugal surely? Very excited to see you planting Apios americana as a crop plant. There was me thinking it was only an ornamental!!

[@NearbyVeggies]

Thank you so much for doing research to help us. As yet, we haven’t found one. There are a few special plant swaps and markets coming up in the next few months. We’re staying hopeful. 😊👍
