That was fabulous, I loved farmer Crusoe listening so intently. This is such an important part of us living on the planet, respecting it rather than abusing it. We’re all so used to cheaper foods that are not necessarily the best for us, or the land. If we ate better quality food, that is food grown in good soil, I’m sure we’d all be healthier as no contaminates could get into the food. It’s always good to know where your food comes from. Lots of luck on this journey, it’s so exciting to think what can happen. Highs and lows I expect, but that’s part of heading into the unknown, take care x

This is fantastic! I’m so happy you are committed to living a permaculture life for ALL our children. Since I retired almost two years ago I have dedicated my time to learning and practicing a regenerative lifestyle. My little five acres is my responsibility to nurture and treat with respect. I have fallen in love with soil and am so excited to wake up every day with the opportunity to show it the love it deserves. I have started a worm bin and it’s fascinating as well. It’s a ring side seat to the life of soil. At some point you guys should try it. Once you understand the needs of the worms it’s really very easy and takes very little time. The reward of the castings as well as the experience of watching the worms do their important work is so rewarding! Love you guys! 😊❤️

I remember he used to plant fields of beans for a. To put nitrogen back in the soil, and b. Feed his staff! He also used to leave fields to 'rest' I live in the city but I have a worm farm and we harvest rain water, we use it to water the plants!

Hello John, Tara and Crusoe, guess when you recorded this video news of the passing away of Queen Elizabeth II was not known yet, my condolences and pray all is well with you and your families in the UK. It was great to know there are regeneration farmers around few but around to learn from them, key is rotation and irrigation, even leaving the land to its own regeneration with no planting for one year as to give it rest, as mentioned in the Word of God to do it every 7 years. Hope you are well Tara you getting closer to your delivery date, prayers are with you. Enjoy this restful time with Crusoe and John. 👍🙏🥰💖🌺👏

I’m so excited that you are going to use regenerative and permaculture practices on the farm. I have been watching tons of KZbin videos on this subject and thought your farm was a perfect candidate for using ponds, swales, and berms to capture water and create a food Forrest. Justin Rhodes has a a regenerative farm and has a good channel to learn from, and Roots and Refuge farm just moved to another state and are building their new farm from scratch and are using regenerative practices too. Their mission is to teach people how to grow their own food, so are a good resource. I am trying it on a small scale at my urban home in Oregon, trying to build up the soil and create a better, healthier place for my daughter.

It's so important to build our soils, the crazy thing is that today's food not only destroys the soils and the planet but it is less nutrient rich and less good for us. With better practices we can feed the world with less food that would be more nutrient rich and help us to grow and thrive. I don't know how we get the big agri businesses to change their practices. But we can all do our little bit. Thank you

You are able to buy plug plants of wild flowers to put in your lawn or you can buy clover seed and start them off just like any other seeds to then plug plant your own in the lawn . 37 years ago it was the good life I and my family wanted. Its a fascinating journey and you are more than half way there with established fruit and natural tree's on your farm, it's hard work but very rewarding and your little ones and you will be healthier and more content with life.

So pleased you are embracing premature and regenerative farming. We have a small strip of lawn comprised.of grass, clover and a few other plants that have self seeded. The little birds of several species love it and feed on the seeding grass if we let it grow a bit.and generally peck around for insects etc.If you have a bird bath nearby with a branch to perch on and a bush to nice in , they will love it! A lawn is also essential for running under the sprinkler in summer!

My partner and I have always had a veggie garden. I grew up in country NZ in a time that everyone had a veggie garden. My partner is English and he had an allotment. We now live in Perth Western Australia and have sand not soil so composting is essential. It’s very difficult to grow veggie in the heat but our best growing time is spring, winter and autumn. We do manage leafy green in summer with shade cloth. We have a fig tree, Lemon, lime, mandarin and a feijoa tree all on a small block. Our neighbours come by for their lemon and limes regularly as they fruit most of the year. We love our little garden and their is nothing as nice as going to the garden to pick fresh herbs while you are cooking. Good on you for all your do and I really enjoy watching your vlog. Thanks

If you take care of the soil organically, it will will take care of you, as an organism forever. Yes, it is harder at the beginning, there is so much to learn, but eventually it will be the the most environmentally and financially, viable way to live. It took me a few years to learn how to make and create organic living soil, composting and the other zillion things that will become second nature. Can't wait to follow you on your journey.The best to you and yours.

Wow that was amazing-thank you! Very inspiring and I learned so much.It's truly wonderful that there are farmers so devoted to what they put into the earth and what they take from it. I've been to the Cotswolds, but never realized how much this time of year it looks so similar to the part of Ontario, Canada where I live. Crusoe looked like he was having a great time and that cucumber was a wonderful treat! Take care of yourselves and I look forward to checking in with you next week!

Hello Tara John and Crusoe what a truly wonderful visit to that farm I thoroughly enjoyed watching it , the problem with the de line of birds and insects is the loss of trees and hedgerows ,and when I was growing up the hedgerows had blackberries and raspberries growing in them and wild strawberries on the ground and mushrooms to which my grandfather used to take us for walks and collect these take them back for my grandmother to make pies and Jams , this was in wales a wonderful childhood and my grandfathers very long garden to which he grew just about everything . He would dig a hole the size of a bucket where all the peelings egg shells all kitchen waste plus fluff and dust from the house and the bucket under the wooden seated toilet at the bottom of the garden . Even now I have a popcorn bucket in my utility which I bring into the kitchen and all the waste goes into it then I dig a hole and bury it just like grandad but I cannot keep digging hole non stop as I only have a patch as it is orchard and all stones, but the little bit I do have I am putting nutrients back into the soil and less waste into the wheely bin. The more I watch Crusoe the more I want to hug him and can understand John wanting to spend as much time as possible with him he is so Comical fresh cucumber looks good and I had to laugh in one of your clips on your farm when Crusoe is holding the hose and moves it towards John I cracked up sorry John but it was funny . You have many happy years to come on your farm and a wonderful life for your children when the other makes an appearance and that means many more times for us to join you and watch Crusoe growing up thank you so much stay safe my friends ❤

It was Interesting to learn and understand how others are choosing to maintain the soil and such valuable information and so much more information will be available for the preservation of land thru the kingship of King and Queen . Watching Crusoe independently exploring and running to keep up with mom and dad is a story in itself. I love his examination of the soil and how gently he touches the clover with as it is being explained to mommy how valuable the clover is it , is as if he understands very much what is being discussed and isn't he only two years old?
