Ep. 103 – Urban Homesteading and Permaculture Consulting with Kerry from Strong Roots Resources

Creating a Permaculture and Land Consulting Business or Side Hustle

Kerry Brown from StrongRootsResources.com joins me to talk about his move from urban homesteading to his family’s land and how he setup a permaculture consulting business.

It’s all about using your abundance.

Moving from a mindset where your land and home are a source of production instead of just consumption. “Building resilience from the ground up.”

Kerry has done everything from swales to soldier fly larvae.

How did Kerry setup a #permaculture consulting business?

– Property walk

– Plant identification

– Fodder trees

– Livestock Management

Kerry has a local/regional land consulting business where he helps landowners know more about the various plant and tree species that are on their property. He also consults with people who are purchasing raw land and are in need of guidance on developing it into a homestead or for wildlife management.

Fall is the best time to plant a tree. The soil is still warm and you will get the most root growth. Four weeks left until first frost. #GetStuffDone.

Chestnut seeds for planting, chestnut seedlings, elderberry cuttings, comfrey crowns and root cuttings. Adapted to the Midwest.

Seeds and trees have “memory”. They thrived and reproduced in a certain climate.

Often when you buy chestnut trees or seeds online, you have to buy from nurseries in the Northeast or Southeast US, or the Pacific Northwest.

Take it from us, trees grown in those climates do not do well in Kansas.

Buying from our Kansas homestead, with nut trees grown and adapted to the Midwest, will make them much more likely to be successful on your homestead or in your yard.
