Trailblazer couple living SELF-SUFFICIENT urban LIFESTYLE 

This is a really beautiful garden. Wonderful content too. Permaculture is the way to go. Thanks for sharing.

Beautifully crafted and timely video! Daisy Ritchie and Alan de Boeur are a great inspiration to so many of us who aim to live as self-sufficiently as possible!!

Great garden and house! Really nice presentation from the host. You can tell they love what they are doing...

Beautiful Permaculture work there that I didn't know was happening right here in Kenya and Nairobi.Hope to visit someday and do some learning.Hope you are also propagating seedlings for all the nice fruit trees and herbs that we can buy.Keep up the good work!

Wow what a lovely place! Such an amazingly well thought out garden and home! Thanks Daisy and Al for your wonderful work!

Thank you for this video. I admire natural livity

I was going to ask what animals you get there: Cormarants and Fish Eagles and Bees. Anything else? How integrated as an ecosystem do you think your food/forest garden? The house is really impressive - it surely helps at that Latitude (sun and general ambient temperature year round? It does look like paradise and I wish you both much happiness in your living.

Bravo! Thanks for sharing your success story and true healthy lifestyle 🙏❤️

Am so impressed by what you have managed to do. I would be really interested to learn more about the modular build. Organic farming! Kudos

Wow, what a beautiful place.

Ooh how I love farming and such environment, I would really love to visit {am in Nairobi}.

So lovelie!!! And so awesome!

Great and very educative Daisy and Alan would you mind helping me out in Naivasha Kenya. Am retired recently and I have started such a garden but i would really appreciate your experience. Ian

How I wish every home in Kenya would be like this!

This is a beautiful home.

Beautiful!!

Thai is very good type of life as if you are like Adam & Eva in their original Garden made by God. I admire your environment you are living in. Congratulations. Try to keep a bee hive too so that you can harness honey to make your health better. You can keep pigs for meat and a cow for your milk. By so doing you will have manure for your plants. Chickens are also missing in your area. A dog is also important to keep. However everything here is beautiful. Keep it up.

This is really awesome. I too, want to work with land and teach kenyans permaculture. Thanks for your content

This is awesome

wow! Inspiring

Amazing way of living.

Subscribed! Excellent channel

These guys are so smart

Very nice!

Love it.. Well done guys the place looks amazing.. I'm going to try the chia seed story.. Did some amaranth this year its so time consuming but I enjoyed it.. Felt so connected to the earth

congratulations to the couple, would love to learn how to live like this it must be hardwork and is it a fulltime job?

Inspiring…🌀❤️🌀

Enjoyed your videos. New subscriber from Uganda.

Lovely

Subscribed. Best RU-vid channel.

The leafy plant that you guys use as a protein fertilizer (sorry I only know the Kikuyu name for it), is a perfect vegetable for mashed foods. Especially great for baby food and it's also very nutritious and delicious too!

que buen lugar

Please offer a course in permaculture for beginners! I live in Nairobi and would sign up for it.

I don't use the term permaculture because the capitalists have monetized it into a few forms and fancy jargon. IMO permaculture should be an attempt to analyze your local conditions to build an edible landscape that can be maintained indefinitely.

@Daisy and Al, Good job and very informative video. Do you have open garden visits for people to see your lovely garden?

Nicely explained.. subscribed 👍 Just need to improve in pronouncing plant names specifically those which are not common for outside Keniya viewer or you can add the names of plants that you grows in description as well.

Waa this is in nairobi? Well done guys

Tilapia is the best testing fish , you could prefer to have it dominate by not introducing larger fish wich may eat it.

You guys rock. Mad inspirations

Wow

Good job

Thank you! Would love to find out more about the house.

How did the hyacinth end up in your pond?

I'm I the only one awaiting part two?

👍👍👍

Nice proyect. Would like more detail information on how to manage to black water. Thanks

💚

Jambo. How much was your plot bought for.? Do you sell your surplus or share it?

When the water drains to the swale, how do you control mosquito issue ?

Would love the name of the prefabricated housing company or is that you? Also the fat separator off the kitchen. Did you “Maarifa” that yourself? Could you share the design idea too!

This is so nice.

This is all really great and looks like you manage it so well, but this isn't what I would call urban at all.

Comorants where about in Africa

I would get rabbits, chickens and pigs and grow feed to them if I had your land. I'm avoiding anything plant and I only eat what run, fly's or swim.

Very impressive. I have a 3 acre land 90 kilometers from Nairobi by Ndakaini Dam. Would you consider consulting in building a house like that? Im willing to pay. Just started converting the farm into organic farming.

Tôi yêu các bạn! Tôi là người Việt nam rất mong các bạn ra video tiếng Việt

Thank you for teaching us.It would help to see the names of the plants written, specially for non native speakers ,like me

First you steal the land, then you steal the technology, then you commercialize, package and present it like you're " trendsetting".......you people never cease to Amaze. and your audience is captivated with what the locals have been doing before you guys ever saw the sun......this is priceless!!

Did I hear Kenya?

The way they've been doing it is inspiring! Sheer greatness!!! However, there is one thing that rang an alarm towards the end of the video. I live in an area where people consume a lot of fish and hence I would urge you to look into this particular variant of fish called 'Telapia' that they're consuming. Telapia is a genetically modified species of fish & there is research proving of it posessing carcinogenic elements which takes the body years to flush out of the system, meaning much of it remains in the body and hence possesses a considerable amount of risk. No such variant of fish freely came into existence in Nature. After coming this close, why not go all natural xx

Can you build me a house . I would love live like you folks

Brasileira, tentando assistir o vídeo com legendas em inglês, imagens distantes ...a menina pegou uma flor amarela q não foi possível identificar 😏😒😔🙄

Omg, anytime i see paleos with Bananas in the back, being labeled "trailerblazers"! 🙉🌬🐁

I love this concept.. this way would help small scale farmers. Are you willing to educate the rural you start with my sister who has an acre. Please if so contact me on the messenger.

Why don't they go back to their home...

Where are you living?? Oob? Onb? Orb? URB? I've listen to daisy say that 10 times while she cradles the pretend baby.

You lost me at 'plastic sheeting'

Tafadhali naomba kuwasiliana na wewe

Why

Laantee ishtehaar of expert option. That guy looks like a tea stall waiter . Such ads should be banned in Pakistan

Did you call your swale design “google culture”??

The thumbnail spells "Sufficiency" wrong. Not very sufficient grammar hahaha just kidding :-)

What about Insects, snakes,..!?.monkey...!?

This is modern Colonial invasion... #bougie

They are far from self sufficient😂🤣
