In this video Jonah and I discuss the vision going forward of transforming my front yard into an edible landscape oasis!
~
Originally I was just going to do edible landscaping around the house but NOW I want to go ALL OUT. No holding back.
~
I want to show folks what is possible.
~
And show you that YOU can do this too. If you fall in the spectrum between one pot in the windowsill to a total yard transformation….you fit the bill.
~
You qualify.
~
You got this.
~
Stay tuned for updates on this vision going forward! It will all be happening SOON.
~
Blessings

I'm excited
love that your doing a new video every day
Cant wait to see 🙂 it's so satisfying when visions come to fruition. I love spending time in my backyard now, it used to be a mud pit in winter or dust patch in summer, weeds everywhere. Now it's a food forest with raised garden beds for annual veges and flowers. And it will only keep getting more beautiful. Looking forward to seeing yours transform I bet it will be amazing 👌 IG is plant_filled_abode 🙌
Hello from South Africa. Enjoy watching you progress and grow. Wonderful that you are proud to share your faith.
Sounds like a great idea. Try growing black pepper corn ivies. 1 or 2 ivy will be enuf for entire year's supply plus to share with loved ones. But the ivy needs something to climb on. I mentioned this to Justin Rhodes comment section few months back. But he got like a million followers n my message was buried under thousands of comments.
Jonah has some new sheen on his face. 🌞🌞 And mustache is making Ben look dull n Not eaten or slept for few days. And it's more evident because Jonah is shining. 😊😅 – just a fair analysis.
Don't use chicken manure. Use cow, sheep, or horse. I used cattle and it comes ready equipped with mycelium. Choice for the cause.. cardboard, leaves , old hay and cow manure worked wonders for my soil. Then I got some free wood chips for the walk ways. Similar to your back yard setup. Grow the world!
I can't wait to see what you guys come up with
The children will love it and talk about it
Will you put a faience around the yard to keep people & dogs out? So no one will walk on it? I to have them only use the walk ways you pot in it? I was thinking you could make your yard in to a maze & that way it be a really fun place to walk in to see how it looks. It be really cool to see you make your yard in to a food maze. I could see you doing that.
Dad was a forward thinker……In the 1970's he planted a vegetable garden in the front yard of our Arlington, VA home. We had a LOT of people drive by VERY slowly. But we ate well out of that garden!
Looking forward to viewing this progression!

https://youtu.be/CNVHFBfWOWE Exactly like you were talking about with neighborhood growing!
You better check with you HOA to see if there are any restrictiins….
A lot of garden plants are under rated for their beauty, for example, yellow squash plants are amazing and beautiful.
Cant wait to see the front yard develop thanks do much and God bless you all.
All great channels
Nice your bringing it all together in your front yard:)
Epic Gardening and Epic Urban Homestead is someone who has done this with raise beds
Beautiful idea, perfect for teaching! You 2 will make it happen.
"Paradise Lot" too — this was in Holyoke, MA, and it gets better every year: https://youtu.be/N-A966tojhA
A very nice vision to inculcate the joy of gardening in the hearts of youngsters by linking it with growing edibles organically
