Timelapse of a full season of a 5 year old permaculture food forest

So as I hinted at last episode, I had a nice surprise for everyone. I’ve been taking little shots of the food forest and pond every few weeks all season long. Today is the culmination of that effort – a full season in the food forest from snow to summer to snow.

One thing I wish I did was to just set up a tripod and put the camera in the same spot and do a MUCH shorter video, but way more often. Also to have it still, and not moving. That is an improvement I can make for next year. I still think this one turned out okay.

A few notes:

It’s super fun for me to watch Lucy grow up, from the first shot to the last shot. She got so big!

It’s also sad to see the peach tree before and after it lost a few limbs from over bearing too much fruit. I even thinned 75% of it off!! I guess lesson learned, and I need to do more thinning even!

I did also include 4 sequences. Looking at it from the side and from front on. Then for the pond, scanning across the pond, and then just the waterfall area. I hope it’s not too repetitive (I fear it may be), but I figured more info is always good. I plan on looking back on this video as the years go by, and well, to be honest, I wanted more shots rather than less. I hope you all don’t mind, and you enjoy it!

Another season has come and gone. I hope you made the most of it, and if not, then make sure to make the most of the next one. We’re in planning season now, so get busy planning your future! And make sure that future includes trees!

Thanks for all the support you guys do for this channel. Thanks for spreading the word and letting your friends know about it. I know this channel isn’t growing because of me, but rather because of all you guys. Love you all, and lets grow this army and change the planet into the way we want it. Together we can do this.

Sometimes I think I was born too late to see humankind land on the moon, and too early to see real space exploration. I’ve always felt like I’m in the middle. But what I’ve been realizing is that anyone alive today may be some of the most important humans that ever lived. Because we have a challenge ahead of us like nobody has ever had before. And it’s up to us to repair nature and restore it.

There has never been a greater challenge, and there has never been more on the line. It’s up to all of us. If you are reading this right now, it’s up to you. Let’s ACT. Let’s make our grandchildren proud. Let’s heal the Earth.

Let that be our legacy.
