We’ve made a video of our Woodchip Island Garden 1 year after planting. This is by far our most productive and closest to zero maintenance garden. It is mostly composed of compost covered in mixed woodchip mulch and a healthy diverse soil life. We even ‘planted’ composting worms and gourmet mushroom spawn last year. We […]
I made a video on the mistakes we made after setting up one of our No Dig gardens, so that others will hopefully not make the same mistakes as well. The vegetables we planted are absolutely thriving and are looking spectacular! Unfortunately a few little other plants we didn’t intent to grow were also beginning […]
Container gardening can be a convenient way to grow greens, herbs, even carrots and strawberries in previously unproductive spaces, for example on a patio, a balcony, right outside your backdoor or even on a window sill. It’s also a great way for beginners to get started and harvest the rewards soon after. I’ll be talking […]
Here is a little update on our summer plant sale. A great thanks to all of you that have bought plants, we appreciate it! A third of the plants are already sold out, but lots of nice plants still available. Please see link below. We will also give a quick peek at our no dig […]
In this video we’re showing you 8 different berries we’ve been growing in our gardens. These are all easy to grow, almost zero maintenance and very rewarding as you harvest your own fresh berries year after year from early Summer to mid Autumn. Berries are considered a medicinal food as they contain tons of vitamins, […]
This micro food forest came into existence by accident! We had some compost and leaf mould left over from a project and decided to turn this unused corner of our land into a productive zero maintenance space. In this small 2×2 meter area we planted a fig tree, an apple, a peach and a persimmon […]
Strawberries are the first of many berries we are enjoying from our garden in early Summer. In this video we’re briefly reviewing 12 different varieties and i’ll be talking about cropping, flavour and how early they’re producing runners. There is one variety we’ve had for 11 years now. We’ve been bringing it with us from […]
What’s the worse weed in your opinion? Let us know in the comments on youtube or facebook! I believe we have found a new contender. 😀 Pioneering weeds are natures repair mechanism, for example tap rooted plants are good at breaking up and draining the soil. A lot plants are considered weeds because they spread […]
Only 5 weeks ago we planted a number of vegetables in our new no dig garden along a south facing stone wall built in the early 18th century. This is a video update from our previous video on how we made this garden. We will see how the common vegetables such as broccoli, onions, potatoes, […]
We’ve finished our newest no dig garden and planted it up with about 30 different vegetables and herbs. We went with a pizza layout for the paths and beds. It may not the most efficient but we like it because it’s both practical and aesthetically pleasing. In this final video in the 3 part series […]
