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 :)

The amount of dad jokes alone deserves him a subscription, let alone the knowledge that he shares and his storytelling based on his own life. Stay healthy!!

If the world was populated by more guys like him, there would be world peace, little or no disease and a lot more joy

My grandfather would hand till an acre of land every year and plant most of these. He also had 5 honey bee hives. He lived to be 95 and was still doing this until he was 94.

The most important thing I try to put in every year is pumpkins. I plant them in odd corners of my garden and let them ramble over everything. They're incredibly easy to grow, just glop some pith and seeds down with some compost and check it every so often. 6 months later there's pumpkins. It's one vegetable that no matter how busy or exhausted I am I can find the time and energy to start them off and they keep doing their thing with very little input, and though I do like to get out there with a paintbrush and give them a little help it's not really necessary. Harvest in time for pumpkin soup, roasted pumpkin, pumpkin muffins, oh my.

I'm not sure how I got here, but I'm TOTALLY staying.
I loved this guy.

Great stuff once again! Agree that potatoes pretty much grow on their own. The only other few vegetables I'd include would be zucchini/summer squash & garlic. Honorable mention to bok/pak choi (part of cabbage family) and spinach. I suppose it really depends on your climate, sun/shade situation, etc. But tomatoes, zucchini/summer squash, beans (green), peas & garlic are probably my top picks. Love your channel and info!

This dude is f*cking fantastic. Like... I hope his favorite sports team does well and that his socks come out of the laundry right next to their matching partner every time.

CHOCKER UP THE BLOCKER

there were so many little gems sprinkled through this video but this one was the best

great vid, trying to make the transition from houseplants to actual food and this is very helpful!

"Without potatoes, you only get a half meal at Mcdonald's". Funny guy. And I LOOOVE his garden.

[erinparker]

“When I think about onions it brings tears to my eyes” Immediate thumbs up

[AdaptiveApeHybrid]

Funny accent yet easy to understand, no fluff or background music, dad humor

I've made it to God's golden shores

[sarahbezerra]

Awesome list! Since I'm in Brazil my list would be a bit different, chuchu (chayote), couve (kale) and aipim (cassava) are very easy and cheap to grow in the climate that I live, and my parents actually have been growing them for years.
