A video where I visit a very special place where Joshua Sparkes and his team are combing natural farming and syntropic farming styles to create one of the most fascinating edible gardens in the northen hemisphere. I really hope you enjoy this! Location, North Devon, UK, Zone 8.

This is amazing – well done! I would be very interested to know how the farm performs during the winter months? Do you take visitors?
I'd be very curious how the harvesting works. How do you know what grows where, when it is ready, etc.?
I live down the road form there and the pud has the best Sunday roast I have ever had well worth a road trip
This is beyond inspirational. It's like getting a glimpse of heaven. I cannot imagine how they can predict their output, though, as a business, because it looks so random!
This is really cool! starting trees at the same time as annuals and chopping the whole thing down once the trees get too big reminds me a Lot of the Mayan Milpa system, great stuff
Thank you so much for this beautiful inspiring video, I really think this is the way forward, it’s lush and diverse and healthy and I am trying to set up my urban plot like this as well. The only question I have is, do you have a list of poisonous plants that are able to show up on your land. I’m always a bit nervous about whether I have sufficient knowledge to determine poisonous species that I have never seen before. I would love to hear your thoughts about this issue. Thank you
Great work. Nice to see. I’m curious about deer and other animals hammering your trees and plants. I live about 135k North of NYC and deer are everywhere. You fence or you lose everything you are growing. Trees shrubs veg fruit. And you get tuck-borne diseases as a door prize.
I don’t see any footage at the margins , where fences or barriers might be in use.
Thanks. Keep hammering. 🎉
This is absolutely perfectly done. Bravo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Stunning video and definitely one for the future if your harvest is high.
How would this work with a field full of bad weeds such as bind weed?
Fantastic, love the approach.
❤🎉
Amazing. That is what I am trying to do.. ❤
Wow, that is insane
Fantastic video
this is incredible!
This is also 10000 times more aesthetically pleasing than a monoculture- intensively managed field.
Very beautiful! Thanks for sharing this! 💯
So basically and nice 👍
I wonder if it would make sense to do this in the backyard.
Love Love Love ❤
Exactly how l have started to garden. It's so much fun & exciting to see what you have, you feel like a little kid! The plants, insects, birds, etc…. I realised how much life a hedge sustains & how important they are! & having a little pond…
Thanks for posting 🙏🙌 & can't wait to see how yours gets on this year too! 🤗
What is the best way of starting beds like that? Planting out plantlets among the weeds? Direct sowing of a seed mix?
Wow, inspiring !
Super! I can only hope we get this far! I'm liking the chop and drop idea!
So interesting!
My mind is blown! This is the most life changing video I have watched in a long time, maybe forever. Thank you!
I love this kind of different growing methods. He said this style was from japan. I'd love to see a little mini series from different parts of the world and how they do things.
Can you imagine harvesting for market? great for a home gardener, self sufficiency if that is your thing, but looks extremely labour intensive on a commercial scale.
Very good progress, i too was influenced by the one straw. Infact changed from then on. Look forward to sharing experiencies some day. Uk
el manzano compitiendo con el alamo? las plantas no compiten por los nutrientes al contrario.
