Inspiring film. We have a very small vegetable garden plus a peach tree and a lemon tree and hope to add another fruit tree next year.

Fruit trees are the best! You just plant them and they feed you 😀

Being a vegetable gardener myself– though as self-sufficient as these cool folks– there is a special satisfaction in tending those beds everyday and the successful harvests that follow.

It is wonderful isn’t it? I have done very little myself but those few things I have grown gave me such joy. Am determined to do more in the future 😀

Actually– rereading my comment– I really meant to say “not as self-sufficient..” I don’t have that much especial time on my hands. Peace.

I think acknowledging, perhaps promoting a vegetarian lifestyle and self-sufficiency is totally positive and Vegans might wish to support that as the alternative is a diet incuding meat. We have more agreement than not and a stronger voice together than separately. The reasons we are Vegan or Vegetarian are various, not singularly animal rights. I was pleased to watch and appreciate you posting this. ☺

I think it’s very inspiring to see people still ‘walking their talk’, and sticking to their ideals; we need inspiration!

I couldn’t agree more! I love that he’s a bonafide hippie from the sixties who hasn’t sold out and who has brought up his family with the same values. Truly wonderful 😀

It’s weird what’s happened to WordPress – my posts never seem to have reblog buttons on anymore. If you want to put the video on your site, just go to youtube and get the embed code to paste into your post 😀

Absolutely wonderful. I think the animals, who were being petted, kissed and hugged, are well loved and treated with kindness and respect. They are part of the family and heir living space was clean, light and cozy. I wish I had the ability and the urge to grow things, but somehow, that gene passed me by. My cousin has a garden and passes her yummy things to me but living in Chicago the growing season is very short. Such a great video and way of life.

Yes, I ummed and ahhed about whether to post it for that reason. I think what this family has achieved is amazing and very inspiring and I love that he is a bonafide hippie from the sixties who didn’t sell out. It is not my intention to promote the idea that keeping animals to provide eggs and milk and honey is in any way a good idea but I think the ‘growing your own plant food on such a small urban plot’ part (which is most of it) is wonderfully inspiring so I wanted to share that x
