Urban Homesteading with Pat McNamara

Good morning Pat!

Homesteading is basic dude stuff 🇺🇸🤙🏻

Great video. Since most of folks in my area of the country (mid-Atlantic) live in the same 1 to 2 acre lot style of living, this topic is very interesting. Hopefully, it will be a regular addition. Thanks!!

Rock n' roll 🤘

Can you really get more down to earth!?

Amazing Pat...keep up the fight brother🤟🤩

Nice interview by info from Pat ...PS - LOL the pipe isn't working !!

A real warrior in a garden, rather than a gardener in a war...😉

Great vid - if more Americans did this, we would have less problems. DOL

Can you recommend any books to help get started with gardening? And how do you plan to make a root cellar in NC? How will the heat affect that?

Obviously filmed before Helene hit. Makes the content even more valuable. Appreciate how down to earth Pat always is no matter who he is talking to or what he is talking about. Pat is gem in a sea of pebbles.

Took his class a while ago in Ohio. Salt of the earth type of guy.

Hey pat mac , great to see ya good info hope you and your family are well 🙏 looks like you are living the dream 👍 please post more of you can , love you and basic , dude ,stuff 💟 🎶🎶 rock on 😎

People out here complain so much about every little thing . Take It all for granted

Praise be, thank you both. The mention of chickens, here in the UK more "hoops to jump through" have been put in place regarding the keeping of chickens. Slowly slowly the people in charge are making it more difficult to make your own food.

Gardening is quite easy to do really...I mean as long as you don't just completely ignore it, you'll grow stuff. If you are overwhelmed just start small...don't till up a big plot and then you have to worry about weeding a huge area and watering alot, just start with 1 or 2 smallish raised beds and see how that goes, then go from there. But it just simply is not hard to grow vegetables.

@Pat

Get you an Aero Mixer Pro, (stainless parts)

Get you a Hungry Bin worm farm, (assuming you're not already harvesting castings)

IBC totes

Grow you some Russian bocking #2 or #14 comfrey roots which you'll use the leaves to steep in your IBC totes for a few weeks in a mesh bag.

Add your worm castings and crank that AeroMixer up!

You'll have you some home made fertilizer!

Joel Salatin ain't "far" from you Mac. Great man to look to for info on farming - homesteading.

Thats a knick nack Patty Mac, give that frog a loan.

Why is it that I can't turn on notifications?

🔥🔥🔥

Interesting interview

Thanks Kamila

Pat Mac is on my shortlist of people to have an hour of his time and a hand shake.

Drank some invader coffee this morning, worked out using my Gitchusum bands and then waited for BDS thinking it’s Wednesday. This video is good enough for today. Make it habitual 🤘🏻

I really need to start working on doing more of that. I think about it but do not. I have plenty of space and time. I just procrastinate. My goal is to get on it this year.

Owns 21 aces and doesn’t homestead 😅

Discovered Pat's content prior to the pandemic. Listed to a lot of the UoB Podcast and found that to be really engaging. Admittedly, I tuned out for a while due to life crap, but it's so great to see the wholesome stuff still going on.

Found out my dog is unwell recently; I hope Grace the dog is still fairing gracefully.

Lol... emotional support chickens.

Pat’s face when the dude starts oversharing 😂

i loved this episode! He's right, I own 50 acre and its a lot to manage. A bit too much, especially trying to maintain it alone as a woman. I only ever use or talk on a few acers of it. So I also buy into the idea that one family can do plenty with 1-2 acre.

Start with tomatoes, peppers, basil…easy

I like how he said plandemic 😛

Awesome interview. I love that he is apart of your squad and that you did an interview with him to support him!

Pat has always been so generous with his time and energy in regards to sharing his knowledge, skills and experience openly. Considering all of that came from four decades of blood, sweat and toil, its always been a case of sit up and shut up when ever his clips pop on my feed radar. Rock n' roll brother.

I started gardening because of Pat. My issue is timing. I never know when to plant seeds or if I should start them inside and plant seedlings later. I am getting better but definitely a newb

Great interview. Ignore the negative pipe remarks. They don’t like it… tuff. We pipers could care less what others think about it. What tobacco were you puffing on?

Tell that to my HOA lady who moved here from California because she thinks she's conservative

I wish he (Pat) posted more sustainable gardening videos. I'm certain he has a damn good system.

GREAT CONTENT! THANK YOU!

Mac’s the best.

Cool interview. Always good to see Pat Mac videos. Maybe you two could do a video on building the root cellar.

Dirt plant and birds great shirt basic dude stuff

This guy is a terrible interviewer. Doesn't pay attention, doesn't listen. And what's with the pipe? You can tell Pat was regretting this. He reached for his gun toward the end.

Great video. Very informative

Nice to see Pat again, was wondering if the Hurricanes past his way

You would think you could manage your personal bad habits for 20 minutes and not blow pipe smoke in his face. Pretty sure Pat being a fitness guy doesn't smoke. Although he tolerates it, I bet if you would have asked him at the start, "Do you mind if I smoke?" He would have politely said I would prefer not.

You may be cool but you'll never be a Bird watching D-Boy with "Emotional Support Chickens" cool. Pat Mac is the best!
