Are you a normal person who wants to grow food? When you search online, it all seems too complicated! But if you give up, what if something happens to our supply lines? What if we have an economic downturn? What if you can't feed your family? Wouldn't you like to know how to grow food without feeling like you need a triple doctorate's degree in chemistry, horticulture and soil science?

You might think you need expensive raised beds or complex aquaponics systems, purchased soil, piles of mulch and exotic tools and fertilizers - but you don't!

In my new book Minimalist Gardening you'll learn how to cut through the complexity and just grow food using simple and time-tested methods. You'll discover how to find easy-to-grow varieties, and you'll learn how to simply put food on your table without expensive and time-consuming methods.

If you have a little land, a little time, and the desire for a healthier life, you can put fresh produce on the table, grow an abundance of hearty roots and greens in your backyard, and stop feeling overwhelmed about gardening.



Thank you for watching!

Today my Barbados cherry cuttings failed to root when I checked them, my pepper seedlings failed when I went to pot them up. One of my mulberry cutting tubs failed to root. Half my banana pups quit on me. My 1 year old cassava isn’t coming back … the lists of failures grows. Now why do my neighbors believe I have a green thumb and they do not? Because they quit after one failure and I kept trying something new. My 10% success rate is really good when I have thousands of plants. No one sees the failures. Persistence pays off.

Use what you have. 👍. Let’s bring back Victory Gardens.

Out of all the gardening channels I’ve come across, your videos are like a breath of fresh air with the occasional bug that flies in your mouth :)

[annalynn]

I am SO GRATEFUL for your approach. Otherwise I’d be shopping everyday for blood meal, bone meal, alfalfa pellets, perlite, peat moss, seaweed, fish fertilizer, plastic buckets of NPK granules, neem oil, diatomaceous earth, compost, mulch. And I’d be poring over spreadsheets about what concentration to apply and when.

Clay soil is a blessing bc it’s packed with nutrients and minerals don’t hate on clay soil people, learn how to use it 🙂

I had this one small yellow tomato plant that got 10 ft tall last year because I save the seeds from it every year and I had green beans under it and it was the healthiest tomato plant over all of them.

Man, you are so right. I have sooo many seeds started with no real plan for where it’s all going to go. I have a gazillion pots from over the years but not a gazillion gallons of potting mix. I need this, I need that…yadayadayada…. I feel like God is telling me to put it all in the ground. (He tells Paul G. things, why not me?) I am just going to go bananas in a few weeks. My “garden” is scattered about our property. I walk around it every day. I see the perennials I have started last year and the years before coming back strong and it bolsters my faith to put forth the effort to expand it even more this year. Thanks for the encouraging videos!

❤built raised beds are nice for older folks with knee or back trouble though

You're looking GQ today. Congrats on your new book being #1 in gardening.

I recently learned that my mom has met you (which makes her a celebrity in my book). She visited your place in Florida for a farm tour and bought plants from you at the market. She said you had a tree that had several types of stone fruit on it, and she really wants to try that. She's got trees growing on her property that began at yours, and one day, I'll inherit the property and plan to do a food forest there. Somehow, this makes both of you so much cooler (you were both already super cool anyway). I hope to get the chance to meet you someday!

Organic food!? Pish posh. I'm out here growing hot pockets and microwave burritos chock full of soy protein isolate and benzodyhydramine sulfate #43. What do I look like, a rabbit?

[KK-FL]

I have dewberries growing all over my yard! We have a love/hate relationship. So much tiny thorns! But free fruit.

[PlantObsessed]

I feel like there should be an instrumental version of sharp dressed man playing in the background. 😂 good stuff as always. Good to know about the new book.

[loveishope]

I am moving to Jacksonville in October. My sister lives there. Shes in a foo foo housing edition but there is a privacy fence 🥰 We've decided no built raised beds. We wanna do it the way your talking about in this video. Im a so so gardener but Im learning. Hoping the new book will help us get started. My sister and her husband have never grown food. Nervous but excited.

[everettmcdonald]

I’ve been waiting for this, another classic GOOD gardening video. Loved it.

[nancyfahey]

You have to become One with the plant.

Directly in the ground is good but make some crepe myrtle sticks and tie a string around it so your husband doesn't mow it down.

[laurenpaolini]

Congrats on the new book! Scot loves the cover. Make sure you bring some copies to keepers of the old ways, we'll see you there!
I love how you crack yourself up lol.

Food growing is not rocket science, but I think it is more important.
