Thank you all for watching us weekly. It is a big help for the project. 🙏 We will be back in April with new plans. You want to come here and help us next Season? -> sign up: projectkamp.com/support (new applications are online) Like what we do and want to see special winter updates? -> go here: www.patreon.com/one_army Enjoy the winter
Hi project camp team .why don't you start a wood chip or mulch business with the mimosas from your land . I think it is a great idea .
see you next seasong
Will you do the Community Building next season?
:( gonna miss you guys.. see you in the spring
Thank you so much people loved to follow. I live in Holland in nu gipsy wagon and am 74...learned a lot from you.. stay safe have a good winter. Till april🎉
IMPORTANT 1) The ethernet cable you ran is old, and limited to low speeds. 2) Running unshielded ethernet cable, next to electric wire, in the same conduit, will result in interference, and slower speeds. 3) Ethernet cable underground is vulnerable to lightning strikes, that will burn computer equipment at both ends of the ethernet cable run. 4) You should run Fibre Cable, which is fast, and not as vulnerable to electric interference or damage. 5) Future proof your conduit, by running several "Pull Strings" so that you can pull additional cable in the future.
how about a dedicated drying house? you can build solar heated intakes, basicly small greenhouses over natural stone channels and build in a small wood fire underfloor heating. this might work to both dry fruits grown on the trees and keep a space for drying clothes. on sunny days it will take zero input even during winter, and a small woodstove will be able to keep the heat up if you plan ahead to distribute the heat along the structure. build it up to a funnel and you will have a nice draft. sorry if i dont make sense
Good idé
Possibly building a rocket stove would do the trick too, and you could economize on fuel. If they've been drying mimosa branches it could suit the purpose.
@@NezumiWorks the russian style brick ovens would be better for them i think. takes more time to heat up but needs less care on the short term wich would work beter in a community setting. its easier to make a group spend 10min each 4x a day from say september to may than keep some one on the stove from november to february each day constantly
I had to dig in muddy wet soil autumn last year i really felt the struggle
Yeah. Dry rooms are very handy
I am a 73 year old American lady…..I love you all and enjoy seeing you care so deeply for the planet. It gives me HOPE for the future and for my grandchildren and GREAT grandchildren ❤
Thank you to the Project Kamp Team and all the supports near and far for an enjoyable season!
Been a subscriber since the end of Season 1, I believe. I don't know if I will ever manage to meet any of you, yet you feel like friends. My tribe. I suspect many of us feel this way. Much love to everyone from the core group to all the helpers who give their time, sweat, blisters, bug bites, patience, consideration, kindness, and bits of blood to Project Kamp. We appreciate all of you. ❤️
I completely agree with you. Most people would not put in any effort into sustainable living, but these people do it for fun.
soo true. I was laughing *soo* hard when Julie was stuck in the mud lmao And it's been crazy, probably half of my comment suggestions over the past 2 years have actually been implemented too. Doubt that's intentional and that we're just on similar wavelengths lol
I am catching up on the viewing, but i agree, most wouldn't go as far. I am one of those who recycles everything and puts much thought into what i can do in my own area and my own place. I wish more thought as we do.@_EasyOnEasy_
So sad this season is ending! Starts my week off so positively! I will miss you all till next season and make sure to spread the word to my friends and family! Happy Holidays!
In Portugal, whoever has a digger is THE BOSS! 🤣 Great job at taking out the pesky mimosas and saving the oaks. The swale-digging and tree-planting was awesome!! 👏👏
Finally I am caught up! Started on Video 1 about three months ago. Thanks for the amazing videos, thanks for sharing your experiences. I donated $10. If I was thirty years younger I would try to volunteer.
Really enjoy this channel! My wife’s great great grandfather, Elisha A Hoffman, wrote the song playing at the end of today’s video, Leaning on the Everlasting Arms. That was a nice surprise to hear. Thank you for sharing everything you guys are doing with the rest of the world!!
I was enjoying hearing it when I read your comment.
Thank you all again for a fantastic season. Have a great winter and see you next year! ❤
Too late now but when you pull a cable through, always pull a new draw cord as well.
i was thinking the same thing
we always put a spare duct in as well
I discovered you in September. I have watched all your videos after discovering one in my suggestion. I am just AMAZED at what you are doing. As an old lady on a fixed income in the U.S. I'm not able to do more than subscribe and watch (and like) your videos, but I think what you are doing is so great. Even as a young person I couldn't have done what you are doing. I have some severe food allergies so I is hard to get enough protein on a vegan diet for one thing. Still, the world would be a better place with more people like you and, if this had been happening in the 1970s when I was in my twenties, I probably would've liked to help what little I could.
I agree with you. Watching these talented young inspiring people working together gives me great hope for the future of humanity. Love from Ireland.
I hope you are having awesome winter breather
This was an EXCEPTIONAL episode! Seeing the grading and adding swales; thought of Antonia and the transformations around Her grandmother’s dwelling. Sketchy shack in the wilds no more! Jorge filling the truck with manure… or quickly recognizing the faces of the tree planting “helpers”!! Those LOCAL connections are key and SPEAK VOLUMES TO THE RESPECT this Team deserves. LOCAL community building a great example of FUTURE SUSTAINABLES (I stopped myself from phrasing as sustainable ‘growth’). The LOCAL themes I have summarized include how it was was a Great Time to further introduce PRECIOUS PLASTIC (exceptionally well designed storytelling)
As someone grown in the countryside in a farm it's so funny (in a good way) to see novice beginners 😂like when you brought the manure baskets
Yeah, and it looks like that is fresh manure with lots of straw in it. You could risk burning your trees with it unless you use it very sparingly. And seeds in that plant material might also sprout. It would be better to get manure that has been in a pile for some months. My husband used to wait a full year to spread on our dairy farm fields.
@@barbrochester5235 yeah i didnt see that 😬 but i've seen that Winter in Portugal has a lot of Rain, hard for a Fire to catch
Make sure the mulch doesn't touch the trunk of the fruit trees to prevent rotting.
Absolutely, also because they have not planted on compost but on woody mulch that has not curated enough. I bet that during the first years these trees will have a hard time growing
They put nitrogen heavy manure at the bottom of each hole. The only issues I see are compaction from digging while wet, and the potential of the trees not spreading roots far due to not sheet mulching and fertilizing the planting hole
I'm too old and under qualified to be much use to your project, but I am really enjoying following your story and find it heartwarming to see the younger generation having a real passion about the environment. Thank you all so much 🙏
Your never to old to tell good story's, share a laugh, and rake up brambles
Really like the addition of the fruit trees, that area really transformed and will continue to change over the years.
Hi Team. Nice work on the swales, trees and plastic recycling, very interesting content. Re the trench for the water, power and internet to your office. I noticed a few things you should consider doing differently in your next trench. 1 - Power and communication cables are not friends, placing them in the same conduit may cause you issues with the internet down the track, due to inductive interference. Power cables are best in their own conduit placed at lest 50cm away from any communication cables in the same trench/wall. 2 When pulling cables long distances through conduit using a "mouse" or "draw line" it is best to upsize the draw line to a larger one. Done by pulling the smaller draw line out connected to a larger/stronger line (eg climbing para cord, which I noticed recently was on sale at my local Lidil in rolls, in Caldas da Rainha), then attach your cables to the large draw line and use that to pull the actual cables through the conduit. By using a large draw line there is less risk of the draw line breaking mid way. If you do have a break, go back to a small draw line with a plastic bag on the end so it fills the conduit pipe internal circumference with a soft structure. Then use a vacuum cleaner on the other end of the conduit to suck the plastic bag and small draw line to the end with the vacuum cleaner attached. A technique you can also use if you buy conduit that has not pre installed draw line. 3 - When burying water lines and power in the ground its best practice to lay the conduit, then a few cm of soil/sand, then a marking/warning tape (visual warning the should also have a knitted metal ribbon within it), and lastly the top layer of substrate. The visual warning stops people when digging in the same area, from hitting the water or power cable directly. Because in theory they dig up the tape first. Further the metal ribbon in the tape, let's you find the trench once the ground is covered in plant grow by using a cable detector. Marking tape has specific metals running through it in a ribbon to make it easy for cable detectors to find. I am sure the fruit trees will be a great success. Take care D
Excllent advice 👌
Excellent advices!!!
great advices!
It is not nessesary to separate com- and powelines by 50 cm. But high- and lowvoltagelines should be separated by an extra safetylayer, so it would have been good to use a second conduit instead. furthermore, the distance betweeen the two houses adds a lot of resistance within the powerline, so the diamtre of the copper should be choosen reasonably larger.
@@Spatzenterror My understanding is they are distributing AC power, not DC via stranded copper. Appropriately sized DC conductors are, in my opinion, cost prohibitive.
Nooo! How is it already the end of season 3?! It's gonna be a long wait till April, but what a send off! Such a great episode :D Love the way all of you, the land, and the channel itself, have grown over this season! Can't wait to see how it all shapes up next year :D Have a fantastic winter season!
Please make sure you are using the correct cable: The maximum length of a Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable is about 295 ft. (90 m), plus up to 16 ft. (5 m) of patch cable on either end, for a total of 328 feet or 100 meters. Beyond this, the signal begins to degrade, reducing the speed and reliability of the connection.
I estimate the length to be within the limits (just), but putting it in one tube with electricity is a serious no no. For that distance and in one tube together with electricity I would have recommended fiber optic, which would also give a higher speed connection.
@@apveeningIt’s a very bad Choice. Aside from practically every Regulatory Body prohibiting it the Run is so long that you actually will couple the AC into the Twisted Pair Cable. Fibre is the Way to go as you said. SFP+ Optics from eBay and some Mikrotik/Ubiquity Hardware should be the most affordable Option. It looked like the Power was only single Phase. Three Phase doesn’t only need a bit less Copper but used Devices for it tend to be cheaper. I’m obviously assuming it’s available. Plastic is the perfect Choice for Cables and underground Tubes. They are used for pretty long Times.
@@FullSpeed_only The source for the AC is PV and a battery, so single phase is a safe assumption. And they might even consider running DC in it.
If it doesn't work, they can just use the electricity cable to transmit data as well
@@FuligJakab Pretty low bandwidth, I would recommend replacing it with fibre optic cable if necessary.
I can’t wait for the new season!
It's pretty sad that this was ended, but I'll see for the next season!!!! 💗💐🇹🇭
That was a nice episode to end with. Will miss it during winter. Maybe i should subscribe on Patreon... but i'm also on Mossy Earth, and local refugee platform, tree planting in congo, ... It's so nice & inspiring to see these positive bottom-up projects making real change, in a bit of a sad time for this world. The most powerfull thing you do is probably that you're connecting people. Would love to come for season 4, but there's a baby on the way, so maybe season 5! :)
....another wonderful episode. I especially liked seeing all the team members individually introduced/identified at the end. That illustrated what a wonderful family you have established.
To look back and see how much you already accomplished so far is mesmerising. I'm eager for spring time and season 4 already. Congrats!
Another excellent (temporary) use for plastic containers is to place them at the base of the trees as a collar, it prevents water rot at the base of young trees
The end was lovely when the local community came and helped out. Such heartwarming activities, planting fruit trees! Beautiful.
Huuuge update this one - so cool to see how far you guys have come. Keep up the amazing work!
Cool hooks! Yes, pipes and wire insulation is actually a high use of plastic. It's really the best solution we currently have. The good thing is that underground like that they don't get UV or anything that degrades them and they are very stable. For next time: 1. with a trench for utilities it's a REALLY REALLY GOOD IDEA to put 'scary tape' at about 1/2 depth. That way, someday, when you end up digging there (or across the trench) again and can't exactly remember where that trench actually was, the digger hits the tape and then knows to be careful and doesn't accidentally destroy your utilities lines. I know, more plastic. You could do a layer of broken roof tiles instead. the idea is to give something that will act as a signal for the next person with a digger. 2. When in mucky mud like that, grab some scrap boards or plywood. A couple per person. You stand on the plywood, throw the second piece where you will stand next. Step to that one when you're ready and pull up the one you were on & throw ahead of you. Then again... another digger!!!! :) Which brings us to .... Definitely a TRACTOR with the ability to have both digger attachments & chipper attachments!! The do make them and that's your most versatile equipment purchase - since you'll only be getting one major piece right now. Even if you don't have the funds for the ALL the attachments you might want, you can add as you go. Have you thought about broken roof-tile pathways? Can it be used on the roads? I really like putting little metal tags on my trees and perennials with info like what they are and when I planted them. Just a thought. And finally, THANK YOU! & Happy Winter Break - I'll be looking forward to April!
Thanks for everyone's effort and lovely good natured attitudes!!! I was impressed with the order and team effort as well ❤😊

Your videos are good enough for broadcast TV, you’ve evolved a brilliant format, well done! I’m hoping that next season you film enough to keep the channel going even during the winter season. Can’t wait ‘till April.
Don’t forget to plant some crabapple trees among the apple trees, they will ensure that the apples are pollinated irrespective of which variety you have.
Wow! The end of Season 3! Congratulations on inspiring so many people. I've been watching since your first season. I'll miss my Monday morning updates. Like so many have said, if I was 15 years younger... Enjoy your break and the winter season. I'll look forward to your return with Season 4! Happy Holidays, Everyone! Great job! You are all doing amazing work.
This channel started out amazing and has only gotten better. Absolutely incredible! You deserve a production award for these videos.
Cheers for this season's content folks!!! Hope you all have a great break!
small hint: if you guys need to run another pipe segment, it's not best practice to run eletrecticity and ethernet cables in the same pipe, the AC eletrecity can sometimes interfere with the ethernet signal. By the way, amazing work in the Kamp :D
with all that plastic, one would think you'd make a clothes line that hangs in the trees out in the sun to help dry clothes. You have got some great projects going on there!
Very cool again and much progress. I like the hooks. Regarding facility tranches, plastics, metal pipes are an alternative. But metall is less flexible, corodes and takes way more energy to manufacture. To have the plastics pipes last longer, covering them with stones and a warning tape helps. Also good practice is to run besides the cables an additional line in such pipes ... you never know when u need to add another cable (e.g. for wifi 😅). Happy season end!
thumbs up for the wifi-cable
Love to see your progress! A few notes though: please don't walk around inside a vertical walled trench in the soil (especially wet soil); it can easily collapse on you and injure or kill you. You might also have wanted to keep some mimosas for a few more years; I know they are invasive, but they fix nitrogen and provide shade in the summer; I fear your fruit tree seedlings are going to fry in the hot dry summer without a canopy to grow under. You might need to put some shade cloth on them come Spring. Please also consider planting some 'support' plants near your fruit trees: nitrogen fixers, plants that flower at various time for the pollinators, deep--rooted plants to bring up minerals from the subsoil etc. Lastly, apples are a pain because of all the pests in the fruit, you might want to consider planting some jujubes, which taste similar but are much lower maintenance. Sorry, not trying to be 'that guy on the internet that knows better', but even if you ignore all my other advice, please please please don't want around in vertical walled trenches. Stay safe!
in my small los angeles garden i used to dig up and toss the numerous guaje (leucaena leucocephala) volunteers. recently i learned about inga alley cropping so now i'm experimenting potting the volunteer guaje seedlings with fruit tree seedlings. i'm curious if there is an optimal ratio of guajes to fruit trees.
Sooo, you beautiful people thank you for this amazing season. With all that you achieved you should be really proud and satisfied. Now hopefully you can take a good rest 😊
Make sure to water the oaks, they may go into shock as you have moved them whilst still in leaf. Thank you for this season and have a restful and peaceful winter. See you in 2024.
Thank you for another beautiful season of Project Kamp. I'll miss everyone from season three during the winter.
It's crazy how fast this season has gone by. I hope the next season will be as exciting, if not even more, as this one.
How many?? Just HOW MANY of your videos do I have to say that "THIS WAS YOUR BEST VIDEO EVER???" Man... I've said this for so many times on so many of your previous videos. But this one has got to be *one of your all time best videos ever!* Um abraço algarvio.
Really looking forward to you guys back on KZhead. It’s been a long time. Can’t wait for the new season
I got instantly sad after the first sentence of the video😢
And even more after the outro...
모두들 그동안 수고 하셨습니다 . 다음 시즌이 너무 기다려지네요.. 겨울 동안 건강하세요
seeing the clips of the people that were in project kamp made me feel something. it's so nice to see all of these people getting involved in project kamp and watching them find themselves more through nature. will really miss them all and hope that we'll see them once again
Many thanks to everyone who is part of the Kamp Project. Thank you for making us feel like part of a family. Amazing season!!!. Can't wait to see the next one! 😊
That was the best episode of the season, I'm very excited to see the winter updates, I hope they can show the water flows and their interconnection with a map like they did here 38:06
The mimosa looks a lot like an invasive tree we have in South Africa named Black Wattle. Getting rid of it is very time consuming and can be quite expensive depending on the extent of the root growth. One somewhat effective method we use is ringing or girdling the tree's and at times doing stem injections. You would need to consult a local expert on whether there are natural ones available to minimize ecological effects.
they already have, there is a whole episode about that😊
@@lealarsen2017 I must have missed that one 😧 will go have a look for it and give it a watch now! Thank you for the heads up 🙃
Suggestion: The hooks are made out of plastic and will degrade in the sun. If you cover the hooks with some sort of UV protectant varnish It will prevent the plastic from breaking apart in the sunlight. It is usually used to protect the paint on cars and to protect furniture that is outside in the sunlight.
It's crazy that the land is really good for farming
Thank you very much for the amazing work you did during the season! It's amazing how many people and how many projects were done. I hope next year there will be even more! A big hug for everyone! ❤
Thank You for doing this. You guys are awesome. Stay awesome over tge winter and see You soon. Much love ❤
The dog barking on queue got me. I had a nephew in 3 corner pants who did that when we had a family picture in response to a smart alec photographer asking if "Everybody done spitting up?" That boy was loud! Serendipitous!🤣
28:57 if you ever lose the end of the string, pull the wire out and the string. On the end of the string, tie a small soft plastic bag. On the other end of the pipe/tube, put a shop vacuum. Put the plastic bag in the other end and watch it zip through. This is a common way to re-string your run. Just make sure you have someone on each end to make the process work smoothly.
i know im being greedy here, but when is the YEAR 3 video estimated to coming out? XD
April
Yea april half
I have so enjoyed this season……so much was achieved. Can’t wait for next April. A Canadian fan. 🇨🇦
Make sure to check the trees in so time again. If you bury them to deep in the wood chips, they could grow fungi and get parasites. Other than that it looks really nice and I can't wait for next season. Have a nice winter.
One of the best videos of the season! The story telling from the project to the rain to people leaving makes it very emotional.
Is it okay to run electrical and ethernet wires parallel? I believe that create a magnetic field issue. The Ethernet cable you showed looked to be U/UTP. There are special ethernet wires with foil and/or aluminum shielding. The plastic covering might not be enough, and I'd to look into F/UTP or better. My suggestion is also to separate electrical and ethernet wire pipes unless that is code for the area.
The magnetic field issue is negligible, but damage to the insulation may result in high voltage in unexpected places with possibly very unfortunate results. And given the distance, I would have gone for fiber optic, preventing these kinds of problems and giving a higher speed as well.
@@apveening Definitely agree. Fiber would have been a better option. TBH I don't have enough field experience to really know if magnetic field would be negligible or not for this type of setup. I just remember it being a concern when I did some certs years ago.
Thank you everyone who makes Project Kano happen (in “real life” and online with these videos and such) it’s gonna be a long 5 months. Can’t wait to see the trees and the clover sprouting!
I know you meant Projeckt Kamp, but as a kid who grew up playing Mortal Combat, Projeckt Kano just put a smile on my face lolol
I'm glad it brought a smile to your face but mine looks like this right now: 😩Autocorrect did me dirty!!!@@Fenthule
The digger and so many tools and different equipment are amazing. Instead of complaining about oil and things that use oil products for power, we should be GRATEFUL for them, and find the best and wisest ways to use them, and reduce any harm they cause. But it is destructive and anti human to think we must destroy the oil industry and end oil as a form of power. We should seek to find a proper balance of energy production. (For those still reading- energy diversification is essential to a healthy sustainable society. And it is impossible to do this when government is interfering in the issue. There are some great Australian school economists who explain how using the government (with rights-violating regulations, subsidies, etc.) to try and fix problems like energy production actually do more harm to the economy and the environment than if they just left it alone. There is a reason why governments are always the largest polluters.)
It's is acceptable to use fossil fuels to implement a more resilient system.
Yes. But I think you missed the point that they are an essential part of a resilient system. If you scale up any form of energy production you are going to produce problems. This includes solar, wind, tidal, etc. So having lots of different types for different places and different reasons is wise. And letting the politicians pick winners and losers in the energy market will ensure everyone loses.
Wow you guys have come a long way from when I first found you three years ago. CONGRATULATIONS 👏🏽 kind regards from Australia 🌻
Love you guys❤ keep moving forward👍
Thankyou for your inspiring videos!!
The short clip at the end with all the people was so heartwarming
Good to see you adding fruit trees! It will take a few years to pay off, but in 20, you'll be giving fruit away. I'm not sure how well the swales will work. You have a lot of clay in your soil. Good for ponds and pottery/brick, not much else. See ya next year.
april is here...
That is the comment i wanted to write :D
For reduce the impact of frost make it like they do in the vineyards: collect stone and lay them around the trees so they collect the heat from the sun and they will radiate it later in the night. Next way is to make stone bowls were you lid some wood fire and you heat the stone with it and the give the heat to trees - but look out not burn the trees or it roots. You have enough wood from the mimosas to burn, lol.
it is heart warming to see do all the work. If I was younger I would also apply; I can feel the passion rushing through my veins when I watch you all but I know I am not as young physically as I feel mentally. Thank you for sharing all this with the world!!!
Missed the Precious Plastic content. Love seeing it again! ♻️
I'm gonna miss you guys (especially Ingrid)... have a lovely and cozy winter
In the US there is a piece of equipment called a "FOREST MULCHER " I don't know if you have them where you are but they are simply amazing! They make very short work of the type of land clearing projects you are involved in there! BEST OF LUCK 😊❤
You produce some of the most incredibly wholesome content on the internet. This one made me emotional. Loved the rundown of all the people who made the season once again awesome. Enjoy the winter and see you in April!
Wow! So much love on the faces of the collaborators. Project Kamp rejuvenates and enlightens people 🙂
The best thing you guys should invest in without any doubt is a ‘Bobcat’ - trust me when I say you won’t just need it but it will be the most used thing on the property until you can get a bigger piece of machinery, even then the bobcat will be used daily. I know you will have discussed it but you cannot do what you are setting out to achieve without a bobcat. Would be happy to come do some manual work at some point.
Little info for you if you ever need to get a wire through a pipe you can use a vacuum cleaner to suck a string to the other end then you can hook something bigger if needed to the first one then pull the wires
When digging to lay tubes for electricity or even water, always try to lay extra tubes with nothing inside and if possible oversized, to avoid further excavation if you need to pass other cables or larger ones. also, don't forget to map everything and Lay some kind of warning cloth on top of the tubes half meter on top so a future excavator find the cloth before breaking the tubes!
the plastic recycling process is so cool! it's basically a 3D printer that can use old plastic as filament. we need that in more places
What a nice group of people you have attracted to your project! Both the residents and the neighbors are a wonderful lot. This community of friends is what drives the popularity of your channel. I wonder if they realize that we come mostly for the camaraderie of people pulling together toward a common goal. True, it is interesting to see the land and developments, but would we be here if the people were a bunch of jerks?
Congratulations on your successful year and all you have accomplished. Happy to see you making berms and swales and planting more trees. It’s an investment in your future. Going to miss you all!
I hope any deer in the area steer clear of those lovely trees!!!! I hope the winter goes amazing, cant wait for next season!
I really liked the ending melody!!!!! Thank you for sharing these videos. I do miss them in your down time. I' sure am looking forward to next season. So until then may y'all be blessed in Jesus name... BBE..
I think considering harsh weather like this episodes, or harsh winter or harsh summer, you should build the community center (the big house) and you'll be much more comfortable. Since you will not be busy filming now, you can dedicate the time to get the papers necessary and prepare for building and that'll be a great serious for comeback
38:36 love this Ariel shot - so helpful to see how the different areas fit together
You fruit forest is going to be magnificent in a couple of years! Well done Project Kamp - looking forward to 2024!
You guys should post shorts in the between seasons, it should please the algorithm and help "spread the word". And we for sure would love it. ❤
Woo hoo. A big digger is SO much more effective than a mini digger... But with either, compaction is your enemy. A good operator will re-dig or hook through the soil wherever they have been.With freshly dug and moist ground, I break with a fork even where I've been standing/walking. Plants depend on the life within the soil, and together they create permeability and absorption of rainfall. Also, look up the 'Key Line' system for swales, where they start at a 'valley' and descend v gradually out to (and then around) the ridges. Very clever and well-known way of moving water to where it is otherwise lacking. (Edit:24:38 oh no.. on wet ground too. Now you have compacted topsoil over compacted subsoil. Rain will struggle to fully penetrate, soil life will struggle to help you. Maybe it can't be helped, but reckon now you're going to need more than one broadfork! Grow annuals with deep roots that will then decay, such as daikon radish ; )
For information: HDPE & PP(5) can both be pretty easily recycled and converted into 3D printer filament. Ultimately, most 3D printed plastic items will be painted so colour doesn't matter. Is that something Precious Plastics might be looking into?
Nooooo I need this. You guys have been my favourite series this year. See you again in April. I'll miss you.
WOW, now we are talking farming, eventually, congratulations on a big achievements. Things getting more exciting. Well done. 🤠👍👍👍
Been following you guys from the very first episode with only Dave there when I searched about tiny houses and sustain lifestyles videos, this community growing so big and strong now. Words can`t explain how proud I am to become part (even only as YT viewer) of this journey, I'm literally crying now. Good job for this season, take a good rest and come back stronger and bigger next season. A big big big love from Tokyo.
Congrats on another year of progress! We love watching each Monday to see what you're up to, and you will be sorely missed over the winter. We'll be working on our own small project, so we'll be plenty busy ourselves. But Project Kamp is like our weekly pep talk from others working on sustainable community development. We will miss you all when the snow flies...
Bravo, the plastic recycling, one of the best episodes 👍
Love the song choice at the end. What a throwback to season 1!
