  1. Love this content especially knowing how important food and water is, its the real currency, if you don’t have food and water money isn’t going to buy you 💩 as I believe a lot of people realised through the pandemic

  2. This homestead is my dream! Love this. People that haven’t grown anything are missing out on the stress relief it brings. And I was surprised how much I got to love my plants.

  4. With the bananas, honestly just make it a banana row. They self mulch and as you have seen, they multiply themselves. So always best to throw them together, especially since they don't usually survive more than one harvest.

  6. Fun fact: lemon myrtle aka backhousia citriodora was named after famous botanist James Backhouse by Ferdinand von mueller. Great discovery on the back of a tough hands bottle that led me to find out my heritage.

  7. I highly appreciate your efforts. But in terms of cultivation, the practices you follow are not scientific. For example, your banana cultivation. The disease cannot be controlled by pruning. The crop should be uprooted and the place burnt and the new crop moved to another place on the farm.

    Meet the nearest field visiting agriculture officer and get appropriate advice.

    All the best in your endeavours!

  8. Hey Az, been watching your b2b channels for a while now and you've led me towards some incredible inspiration. I would love to know how to started your educational journey on homesteading. Did you have any formal learning with agriculture or sustainable living or did it mostly just come from family history and culture? Thanks for the content and never stop living the dream.

  10. Absolutely jealous of your Orchard there Aaron, Growing Bananas have their pros and cons esp the off shoots which can become annoying weed took us months to properly kill of the banana tree in the back yard. Yeah thats the problem el Arish is in that zone where Cyclones like to develop who could forget Cyclone Larry and how close it came to Cairns but because of that, all the fruiting farm crops below Cairns were destroyed Bananas were joked to be more expensive to steal then Gold bars. so yeah definitely get that reinforcement project up and asap i too would hate all that lovely fruit trees of high value to be destroyed esp Durians that take 8 years to fruit. Thx for the update and last thing the Yellow Pitaya im told has the most health benefits.
