Are you an ecologically minded landscaper, excavator, environmental consultant, or tree services company? Do you want more customers who pay, stay, and refer?
Customers who are interested in sound ecological and environmentally friendly services. This message extends to solar contractors, HVAC, and home services contractors.
I summarize a mastermind call with ecological solutions providers in today's episode. Discover a six-point foundational approach to selling more ecologically minded solutions.
Contractors who practice earth care to reduce modern problems associated with energy use, landscaping failures, and erosion control.
Deliver value to the community rather than create more permaculture consultants. Use teaching to get consulting and services clients, not more advocates.
The activism approach doesn't offer practical solutions. That's where the income opportunity exists. You can grow your contracting business by filling this demand.
At the end of this episode is an excerpt from a mastermind call (2015) discussing your ecology-based business. The key themes are community building, Ecological solutions, and Food security.
The free consultation mentioned is still available for qualified individuals at https://www.prosperityhomestead.org/wf6d/?utm_source=001-n0302a&utm_medium=spreaker&utm_campaign=o0227b&utm_content=community-value-through-ecological-solutions

Do you want a homestead without the expense? Do you want your homestead to be less work each year? Pay close attention.
This is possible when you design with ecology and respect for natural resources. Working makes starting a homestead with less money easier.
The application of this knowledge is the true demonstration of its value. Don't watch another video without doing the exercise in this episode.
To be good stewards of land brings much more than cultivating, controlling, or developing. Do you understand hydrology? What about the solar aspect?
Without study, it's hard to bridge the topic of ecology with what typical landowners experience. Too many new homesteaders designed by brute force.
Many will build a homestead without considering solar aspects, forest composition, or water usage. They spend more, require extra materials, and are unhappy with their new life.
When you understand how nature works, it's easier to reconnect with abundance. You'll discover practices that improve the value of your land.
Homesteads and small farms can lead the way in regenerative practices. Are you ready to take up this charge?
In today's episode, I mention taking a survival course to understand the power of nature better. You'll learn how working with nature gets nature working for you.
Want a crash course on ecology and human interactions? I recommend the "Survival Essentials Workshop" with Scott Vernon at https://www.sustainablehomestead.com/ecommerce/december-27-31-survival-standard.html
No matter how you do it, working with nature saves you time and improves your success.
There are a lot of hard ways to homestead. For those who want food security and abundance, join us at https://www.prosperityhomestead.org/newsletter/

Are you working hard, or working smart? The smart way to work stacks function to solve many problems with fewer inputs. This approach helps you clear fence lines, trails, or open habitat while enhancing functionality.
When you curate land you increase resources each year. There is a time and place to clear land, but clearing is not always necessary. The forest itself is great habitat and shelter for many types of livestock. Pigs, goats, sheep, cows, and even chickens can live in the forest.
Your forest systems with silo pasture or agroforestry can deliver additional products. Raise timber, quality hunting land, or wildlife habitat in the same areas livestock periodically visit. When you understand these approaches you get more from every acre.
This really boils down to your connection with land. To steward or curate you need education. That starts with practical experience. To learn more about the essential survival skills program mentioned in this episode, visit https://www.sustainablehomeste...
You won’t learn these things with another podcast or YouTube video. Save that for a rainy day. Doing this the right way means everyday enjoying your property. Get outside, get active, and engage the land in a meaningful way.

Have the balls to design for humans rather than consumer goods. Unless you are a landscaper by trade, you are likely using string trimmers and leaf blowers the wrong way. These devices are sold by challenging your manhood, yet make you look weak.
Do this to never blow another leaf, yet have your yard leafless. Do this to eliminate the need to string trim. You can have a lawn and still be holistic. While I’d rather you have a pasture, you don’t have to make so much noise and cause distraction to have grass.
This approach reduces the time you are working for big box stores. You’ll spend more time with your family enjoying your small farm or homestead. Today’s episode has advice that works for suburban and urban spaces as well. Throw away your string trimmer and leaf blower, you don’t need them.

According to a National Health Survey, in 2021, 5.9% of adults aged 18 and over livered in families experience food insecurity.
Such studies are misleading. Yet useful government lies to increase food subsidy programs. I'm sure this episode will be fact check because the media is in on it.
Remember, carrots don't advertise, neither do potatoes. But the food industrial complex does. So do fast food chains and grocery stores.
Using statistics in this way is a form of government control to consolidate power. It also feeds large corporate food manufacturers propaganda to push processed solutions.
Don't take my word for it, John Stossel recently covered big government distractions around food insecurity claims, https://youtu.be/es614SrcbhI
I also cover how we define "Food Security" and why that is important.

It’s very easy to get drawn into the homesteading movement. Especially with all the great helping people with new ideas. There is also the food security, sense of community, and opportunities to learn. But now you have land, what’s next.
Before you hire any expert to work with you, there are many low cost solutions to get ideas. From your local college, extension offices, or federal departments, they all have programs. You can have people do studies, or give you ideas.
Yet there is something far more important. This one thing makes all the difference between a homesteading dream and a nightmare. Save the drama for YouTube. For your land you need more enjoyment, value, and meaningful memories.
Today’s episode has a proven approach to get more done with your land. Take notes. Do this to fight the overwhelm of expert opinion and the unlimited supply of ideas. Don’t let someone hijack your homesteading dreams with overwhelm.

An excerpt from a permaculture design energy audit discussion. Your feeling of room temperature is situational. Save energy by setting your thermostat higher and spending more time outside.
Energy Star recommendations are to set your thermostat at 78 degrees for air conditioning and 70 degrees for heat. This setting saves households $2,200 a year.
I prefer cooler temperatures, so I set my thermostat to 68 degrees in the winter. Yet, my body adapts to higher temperatures in the summer. As a result, my HVAC turns on due to home efficiencies.
You can do more to have a comfortable home with insulation, airflow, and solar aspects than HVAC alone.

If you want to make money clearing your land, stop, listen, there are alternatives. What if you could earn the same or more doing something other than timbering land. Now some land needs timbering, but without a clear management plan you can be losing money and habitat over time.
This is about conservation as much as accumulation of wealth. I’m arguing a healthy natural forest is worth more than you can imagine for the prosperity of your homestead. Too many seek what is beautiful to the eye, ignoring what creates a diversity of natural systems.
You can be more resilient with your small farm or homestead doing less. No need to cash out of a property, with the right management techniques you can own that land for generations. It starts by being a good steward, plus the key ideas and concepts shared in today’s episode.

They say to recycle and even provide programs. But is recycling the best thing we can do for the planet? What if recycling is only a small part of healthy living with nature?
Companies with something to sell focus on recycling because the alternative requires responsibility. To sell you a plastic bottle rather than biodegradable paper, glass, or alternative puts liability on the consumer.
Recycling has become a token effort to "save the planet" without consideration of options. Yet, too many choices cause people to take no action at all. What can be done to improve the health of our environment?
Today's podcast seeks to expand your understanding of options. My experience is that waste starts in consumption, not in the disposal. There is no trash in a system that reuses materials.
If you are interested in living better with less, you are in the right place. This podcast shares a holistic approach to benefiting from nature while cultivating resources. Join us at https://www.ProsperityHomestead.org/newsletter/
Yes you can transform a weedy field into natural abundance. Turn disused areas into vegetable gardens. Feed your animals with naturally occurring systems.
Establishing pasture can be a complex endeavor. There is an art and science of growing nutrients for animals. This episode is a simple introduction to pasture development that gets you started.
The first choice is to determine if pasture is best for your land. Because you can turn something into a pasture doesn't mean it should be such. What are your goals?
Meat calories per acre are higher than vegetable calories on the same land. Animals can thrive on land not suitable for vegetable crops.
The secret is raising animals, so they only have one bad day. Mental and physical health is critical to humane animal husbandry. A quality pasture is heaven for grazing animals.
Today's episode is about pasture for small animals. To learn more on this topic, consider reading more with these experts.
- Joel Salatin is a farmer who raises chicken, beef, and pork on pasture. His farm uses rotational grazing to increase soil carbon and grass production.
- Masanobu Fukuoka, a proponent of no-till, herbicide, and pesticide-free cultivation. He is known for his natural farming and re-vegetation of desertified land.
- Allan Savory is a pioneer in regenerative agriculture. He shows how to increase grass density and soil health with mob grazing. Methods recover degraded land while capturing carbon.
You don't need a ranch to benefit from pasture. Even with small livestock, how you manage land improves health conditions. Rotating animals from paddock to paddock requires observation, measurement, and care.

When I show growing biomass, I get asked about ticks and mosquitoes. Many fear these tiny creatures for good reasons. Both ticks and mosquitoes born illnesses are serious.

The secret is breaking the breeding cycles through exclusion, inclusion, and design. No perfect solution exists, but you can reduce the population of harmful insects. Today's episode shares specific strategies.
Sitting alone surrounded by butterflies. All the colors of the rainbow in a sea of flowers. Natural beauty growing in plenty all around you.
