    This is the man that needs to be the Secretary of Agriculture.

    Nobody ever farmed in my family, to the best of my knowledge. I'm a shop owner with very little area to even garden. I listen to Gabe Brown because it gives me some real hope in this crummy world.

    I’ve Probly watched this ten times or more. Even listening to it while falling asleep
  • Featured youtube video on our 2023 planning chat for the Community Garden. 4 year goal, create our own green waste/ soil armor. BTW I am taking iron and B12 due to anemia, food nutrients are failing me, took me out of the garden labor force for a year now. Thank you

    In 17 minutes - I have learned more than a 1000 years of living would give me. I can make my equipment. Thank you!

    At last a life of common sense. Love it. Keep saving the bees and other pollinators. We need them.

    Gabe is NOT a farmer! He is a scientist! A biologist, chemist, meteorologist and than some!. If that is what it takes to be a farmer these days than wow! I am a city girl and countryside is a holiday destination, to sniff the flowers and watch the cows nibbling the grasses. But I was blown away by this presentation! Amazing knowledge and skill. Amazing viewing. Thank you! Will watch some more..:-)

    This is making a lot of sense. I'm wonder what type of lobbying the large chemical companies and the farm machinery producers think about this movement. Lower yields but higher mineral content. This is an answer to the ability to feed humanity. One does not need to eat as much. This fact alone may help lower the incidence of digestive track cancer? Informative and exciting. Gives me hope for the future my grandkids face.
  • I have listened to quite a few lectures around this subject and I find this one the most concise, informative and easiest to understand so far. Thanks.

    Life changing. Thank you so much for illuminating the path to healthier, more productive pasture and livestock. Wheels already turning on how much different my future will be, Lord willing. Bless you Gabe.
