After only three years of homesteading, this family is already growing 90% of their food for a family of four on 2.3 acres, and most of it is grown in their front yard! They grow 150 varieties of fruits and vegetables using permaculture principles and they use a variety of methods to preserve their harvest, from drying and canning to freezing and fermenting. • You can follow and find out more about Willows Green Permaculture here: • / @willowsgreenpermaculture • https://www.willowsgreenpermaculture.... • Some examples of the foods they grow: • For grains, they grow wheat, sorghum, barley, rice and oats. • For protein, they grow beans, hemp seeds and sunflower seeds, and they harvest wild mushrooms. • For vegetables, they grow potatoes, carrots, onions, cabbage, squash, corn, spinach, okra, peppers, tomatoes, and more! • For fruit, they grow elderberry, raspberry, goji berry, grapes, and more! • We hope you enjoyed meeting Stefan and Magali and seeing the abundant homestead they've created, as well as learning about the benefits and challenges of this impressive gardening project. • Thanks for watching! • ------------------------------------------------------------- • STAY IN TOUCH! • ------------------------------------------------------------- • Website: www.exploringalternatives.ca • Facebook: / exploringalternativesblog • Instagram: / exploringalternatives • ------------------------------------------------------------- • COMMENTS • ------------------------------------------------------------- • We want our channel and comments section to be an inclusive space where everyone feels welcome to watch and contribute.
