My second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUZX-FaPDq7w_TqB3QrAzWQ Hi, learn organic gardening, realistic self-sufficient living, keeping quail, chickens, and lots more! My channel is about self-sufficiency and based on my blog (established several years earlier) called "Self Sufficient Me" this doesn't mean I believe I am totally self-sufficient (nor do I want to be) but more that I want to "strive" to be as self-sufficient as I can with the current resources I have on offer. Thank you for subscribing! Look, and see the Earth through her eyes... metaphorically means trying to work WITH nature rather than forcing it artificially.

Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland, Australia, about 45kms north of Brisbane - the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida).
