we are so privileged living down the street from Chantal
Love this so much – we all need more of this!
I absolutely love this! Thank you for everything you are doing. 💚
Such a loving soul 🙏
I could listen to this lady all day. I will be her when i grow up. Thanks for sharing her story, beautiful.
♥️♥️♥️
what a lovely, inspiring woman
My heart just omg such a wonderful lady!!!! Absolutely inspired and wish she was my neighbour!
Her aloe plant story was so interesting! Imagine having something with so much history.
Beautiful garden! Awesome tip 8:23 thank you so much 😊
Where is Chantal's garden? It's fantastic!
Just beautiful.
Classy lady, I share her passion for my organic garden and food forest. It's the most important movement happening right now in society. To grow our own food and help others do the same in the spirit of community. We are all one. Namaste.
Thanks
Those 24 people who dislike the video( Are they ok) If you don't like gardening just Ignore it. That's was unnecessary
Its way better than grass lawn
Beautiful!
What a beautiful human being. She has so much positive impact on the people around. And the garden looks amazing.
It irritates me when people say "The world needs more people like Chantal". This is a lazy comment, hoping that "someone out there" will do the work. I would prefer to see "Wow! I She has inspired me so much that´m going to go out and do something like she has done!" (In fact, several of the comments below are of people who have been inspired to take action!)
Help!! I wish I can do this here in Saipan, Mariana Islands..Hafadai:|~~~
She feels like the magical neighborhood witch that you want on every street corner. The value she brings to her community and beyond is immense. I dream of being this brave – the social anxiety I feel just thinking about interacting with my neighbors in this way is overwhelming, yet I also crave that community connection. I'm just starting out learning to garden, but I hope that someday I can cultivate such a beautiful space <3
Love this! This is why we need housing security so we can set up mutual aid like Chantal did by using our yards to grow food to nourish ourselves and the community. Without places for the public to grow their own food we won't be able to reach our goal of sustainability. For the poor and marginalized the common public good is essential as we often don't have private property to sustain ourselves. Wonderful video! Chantal's generosity of spirit is a lesson to the me, my, mine attitude we all currently suffer under in the USA.
She has more from her heritage in regards to that plant than most and BTW. what most people think is their heritage is fabricated, & they don't even know that remember that
what an amazing woman.
Strong willpower , resilience, and a loving humanity is what this beautiful woman represents here. All humanity must garden, for that is the key for defeating fascism ad food shortages ! Bravo my lady!
What a sweet Lady. Blessed.
I love this from beginning to end
I love what you are doing, I`ve loved to garden for 50 years. Do you have many young people getting interested ?
🌹🧡🌹
Such an inspirational lady!
Hoep her neighbors and many of us will adapt planting like she does..
If only their were more people like her , the world be a better place
OMG, you're telling my story. Standing in the kitchen was agonizing after 10/15 minutes. But moving around in the garden was healing. I'm almost off my last medication.
Thank you, Rob.
Amazing! So much love! The basic necessity of growing and caring for yourself. Connecting to ancient roots….so true!
So fabulous! 💕
What a beautiful woman
Thank you so much for sharing. I've been looking for these typeo of example. Sustainable communities is a special insterest of mine. Your experience is important to me for you are showing that is possible to live your dream in spite of health concerns, and one of mine is being an amputee for the past 8 yrs.
When my husband and I retire, my goal is to buy a small plot to plant our food to eat.
this video is amazing and inspiring, and keeps getting better. i was so touched by the plant that has been preserved and cared for since before the middle passage.
The Aloe story had me tearing up. I love seeing videos of people taking back control of their health and food and giving back to the community.
This is so lovely! Great story of such as wonderful woman 🙂
