Permacuture Gardening explained 
Part of channel(s): Yoursay (promoted)In the comment section of my first garden vid this year, I told edkemper and a couple of others that I would explain what I meant by permaculture gardening, so this is what that is. I didn't do any editing at all, so at the end when I thought that I had shut it off, I hadn't, lol.
The grass is only green and in need of mowing right around the garden where I water it because we haven't had any rain.
No more did I get that out of my mouth and it started pouring down. HA!

In "olden days", the financial cycle for a family farm was to borrow money to pay for the seed for the spring planting and to pay back the money after bringing the fall crop to market. The land itself was the usual collateral. One bad harvest or an unexpected price drop could mean going instantly from freehold farmer to tenant farmer or even to share cropper. This is what happened to a lot of people, both white and black, in the American South after 1865.
Self sustaining crops mean in More..

shukin' peas sure is a pain in the ass eh dad?
I've got a book I been using for a few years now that's relevant to that style of planting. It's a guide of sorts to "companion "planting. What benefits what by growing in proximity for detering insects or disease or attracting benefitial insects to eachother. The all natural way, of course till shit gets out of control and clown face zero comes in squirting liquid seven and whisky on everything that moves :)

@zero-g Hahahaha, I was going to mention the clowning around, forgot. Yes, it's a chore, but a man gotta do what a man gotta do, I spent almost all day doing it, a whole bucket full.
What's the name of that book, I'm very interested in exactly that, I'm just learning this.

http://www.powells.com/biblio/1-9781580170277-0

The other is "lasagna gardening " by patricia Lanza. pretty sure you'll find stuff on youtube under "lasagna garden.
But my ultimate Garden Bible is the old "crockett's victory garden" from the old pbs show, gotta be the old one tho. cover looks like this

lol at least you didn't do anything wacky while the camera was rolling and you thought it was off.
Good on you mate, nice seeing you're shelling home-grown peas. These are the freshest and the sweetest you can get.

@Stage-Right We grow our own steaks, pork chops too. We get milk and eggs from the Amish, chickens too. Beer on the other hand I've been buying, although I have brewed my own in the past, so I could easily start growing hops again and brew my own if I had too. I could throw a still together in a minute too, lol.
