Urban Farmer Meets Market Gardener: The Secrets of Sustainable Success!

[@palui]

I bought Jean-Martin's book and ate up every word. Takes Coleman to the next level. Thank you for being a huge inspiration for us small growers!

[@farmer998]

PBR beer of champions, love what y'all doing keep it up

[@QuinnMatousek]

Coming in late but very very interested in urban farming. This is what I want my future to be. Now to continue my research! Will be buying both yours and his books and will also continue watching all of your videos starting from the first one. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and journey!

[@AssHat828]

This is just fantastic. Please keep things like this coming as I use them to help explain to others that just don't get it. =)

[@natalienicklin5683]

These guys are my heros

[@h7oslo]

This makes an excellent presentation on rationalizing permanent beds and separation from the rototiller. Ouch! I love my tiller! I must learn to let it sit. I shall review more by Jean-Martin, and of course, Curtis. rc

[@timalan4126]

+Rusty Case Use your tiller, but no deeper than 4 inches...then follow with a fork to break and ease the ground.

[@chironchangnoi]

This is probably one of the best videos I have ever watched. Thank you!

[@quovadis8588]

Much appreciation! Can't wait to see you in Victoria and check out the book! I love the casual coffee cups in the green house when J-M slips some PBS in it ;) CLASSIC CANADIAN!

[@flashbackfarms4034]

You had me at 7:53 with the PBR. You're a bad bad man JM. :)

[@seaturtle5757]

Yea, that's what I thought....PBR! Good info though.

[@peacebewithyou5702]

not a PBR fan here but if u can drink a beer and get some work done more power to you.

[@jfc4039]

that was an awesome interview!

[@ninpo942]

Patiently waiting for my copy of this book. People are hungry and waiting too :)

[@ImAChristianFirst]

Curtis it sounds like his talk on refining instead of growing bigger goes hand in hand with the Pareto Principal you discussed in another video. I have been studying the 80/20 rule, and it will definitely open yours eyes.

[@johnnymotoeveryday8206]

Thank you both. Excellent info and I'd like to drink a PBR or 6 with y'all someday if you are ever in Sonoma Ca please stop by my urban farm!. Something about growing in Sonoma is surreal. It's called the valley of the Moon, and tonight is a full moon and I am planting beds well into the evening. Cheers Curtis, you are the man. Cheers Jean -Martin you are a Guru!!

[@buyerofsorts]

+Johnny Fontenot Sounds like a good place to visit for sure! :)

[@timalan4126]

+Johnny Fontenot I'll get stupid on a 1 n 3/4 liter of rum with ya...gotta have a fire!

[@eyesalooking]

I bought the book and it will arrive in two days. I have about 1/2 acre that I can devote to gardening. I live in a agricultural zoned area in Back Bay (Virginia Beach, VA). I just finished building a Texasprepper2 greenhouse and already own a BCS Tractor with rototiller. Enjoy and have subscribed to your videos.

[@ptrain9020]

Hey, I live in virginia beach as well. I would love to check out your greenhouse and garden or whatever operation you got going on. I am right off of Nemo Parkway. I plan on moving out into the Pungo area hopefully soon and start growing food on a larger scale than just my backyard.

[@eyesalooking]

Right now I have one raised bed with pepper plants, tomato plants and cucumbers growing in it. I have some tomato plants growing in pots. I have a cattle watering trough that has come kale growing in it. I don't have anything growing in the greenhouse because the temperature gets up to 100 degrees during the day. I have a fan running on solar/battery to cool it but with the door open and the back window open it is still too hot. I am hoping to grow some vegetables in it this winter. I hope to add another raised bed next year. I am out of town this week and I hope that I have some ripe tomatoes when we get back. The peppers and cucumbers are doing great. There isn't much to see but we can connect when I get back to town if you are still interested.

[@ptrain9020]

Absolutely. I look forward to connecting. I also am growing quite a few things in my backyard raised beds and fabric pots. Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, pumpkins, tomatoes, peppers, basil, goji berries, apple trees, orange tree. I have a youtube channel of my own. If your interested look up Patrick Pittman in youtube. My channel is nowhere near as put together as Curtis and John Koller etc. but I do what I can.

[@justinzunker]

14:29 - "Are we filming that" Epic!

[@jameso7008]

Hey, so I don't get it. Why is using a power harrow better for the long term, compared to using a rototiller? I thought that compaction was caused by the breaking up of soil aggregates and by weight? Wouldn't the power harrow have these problems as well? Is no-till possible when growing vegetables? Do you still read these comments? haha thanks if you do!

[@offgridcurtisstone]

+James O The Power Harrow is a super shallow tilth, so no, it's not the same. Do some searching around online about it, you'll find it. Lots of info about it out there.

[@Bentonendflowerfarm]

We have the book and think its great, thanks for a great video

[@farswasem5487]

I have a big dream to work in a farm in Canada and I hope to be achieved

[@350bah]

Hey Curtis, in the video you said that there were some things you would have done differently starting out if you had read JM's book before you started. Have you done a video on this topic? what you would have done differently...it would be interesting if you would mention some specifics

[@joeanstey1677]

Love the PBR!

[@jayshriver3933]

Just bought your book JM

[@torennelson5657]

At 2:30, there is a brief mention of a Quebec farmer in New Mexico. Does anyone know who that farmer is? Would love info about this guy he apprenticed with!

[@tpsu129]

Better than your book? I just got yours today.

[@offgridcurtisstone]

+tpsu129 It's good.

[@overgrowthesystem2872]

Good stuff

[@carlosescobedo7383]

The Cubans did it because they had no other choice. Actually most credit should be given to the Aztec culture.

[@offgridcurtisstone]

Carlos Escobedo Necessity is the mother of invention!

[@carlosescobedo7383]

Urban Farmer Curtis Stone I agree brother
