Here’s a video tour of our backyard and sprouting room.  Our vision is to make our front and back yard completely edible…and sustainable.   This video show’s the backyard…..the frontyard will be in the next video.

 SPRING WATER
(see full post here)

This is a video of our weekly water harvest.  We’ve been harvesting from this spring for about 8 months now.  The P.H. is 7.0 and the T.D.S. is 60 out of the tap, and 50 out of the rock!  Loving it!  For more info on spring water, check out “Living Energies” by Callum Coats, based on the work of Viktor Schauberger.  Also, check out Daniel Vitalis on YouTube! 
Great Stuff!

YEAR ROUND GREENS

This video shows the “covered” sq. ft. gardens.  They’re covered in construction plastic, supported by PVC pipe.  We’ve been eating these greens for the last few months….   This was filmed in December of 2008.  Outside temps averaging in the forties during the day… below freezing at night.
