Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland, Australia, about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online, so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂

    G'day Everyone, that kookaburra still won't leave me alone lol… I'm still working towards going live soon but I just want to make sure the connection etc is solid before I take the plunge this time. As always, I don't ever take your ongoing support for granted and thank you wholeheartedly for watching my videos! Cheers 🙂

    Does mint go with pumpkin and eggplant? Why not? I would try a sear and slow roast, something maybe in a tagine or clay pot, use Moroccan spices, finish with fresh chopped mint. Less vegan: chunks of pan seared lamb slow roasted with veggies added halfway or so through. Just saying, if I had those on hand, the vegan version would be something I'd try, add some couscous as a side. 😊

    Would you recommend putting cinnamon around the plants? I have heard that this reduces pests and promotes more growth but I'm not sure.

    Mark you legend,

    I started watching your videos late at night during the graveyard shift at the pub I used to manage while I did the days balancing. I started to say dream about a new way of living my life.

    I’ve moved back to the Country – south west NSW, and have just begun to get a little garden going.

    Can’t say you’re 100% responsible, but I definitely owe you some measure of Thankyou, because I’m the happiest I’ve been in years mate.

    Cheers brother

    @Self Sufficient Me : Of course this is not a thorough video/lecture, but it is good, fine, and " Bon appetit ". You provide quite fine videos at this channel of yours. I do not know it would all work in Quebec, Canada, where I reside in a southern region, but certainly a good amount of what you explain would be good for here.

    When I transplant I dig up the soil about two inches around the plant so as to not disturb the roots and this way the plant does not go into shock and die off 🙂

    Thanks to you I now have 6 raised beds. One is mostly compost but if something comes up in there I baby it. My tomatoes have grown too tall for me to reach the tops. They had some kind of worms on them that was destroying everything but I think that is under control now. I have a ton of blooms but not as much fruit on those…..Cucumbers completely took over one entire bed. I have already put up over a dozen jars of pickles. I have potatoes in one bed by themselves but they arent doing great. It is almost time to harvest..I hope by watering them daily they will grow a bit more in the next couple of weeks. I have yellow crook necked squash that is doing well and one entire bed of bush beans. I also have garlic, onions, sorrel, spaghetti squash and a few suprises that i have no idea what they are. I have been making own beds out of galvanized steel and 4x4s. They are nothing fancy but they hold dirt. Maybe next year I can do something to make them pretty. I have learned a lot this spring and I know more about what to do and what not to do for next time. Thanks for all of the good information.

    The corporate NYSE owned Govts of NSW have made a decree: no more honey bees will be living by 2025. Bees pollinate our food. Huh! so why would they hatch such a dastardly plot? I think some at least know.
    Have a happy day.

    I love your videos so much. You had me laughing out loud multiple times. 😂 Thank you for that!
