World Naked Gardening Day
Added 2022-05-06 13:46:11 +0000 UTCTomorrow is World Naked Gardening Day. And while I certainly treat just about every day as such, I feel like this day it is more widely accepted to be naked in your garden because it is designated to be. But why is that?? Why do we need a designated day to celebrate the beauty of our bodies being in tune with the natural world around us? We are nature after all, not separate from it. I enjoy gardening this way because I love to feel the warmth of the sun touch my skin, the wind blow across my skin, and allow my body to feel the earth. To me, it’s a sacred and divine act. To many others, it is perverse. Perspective is each our own, and usually comes from our prior experiences, upbringings, religious beliefs, and values. The body, specifically the female body has been over sexualized. And yet our bodies do and are so much more than that. When we can look past the triggers we have around sex, and recognize it for what it truly is, we can return to more of a harmonious perspective of our relationship with the natural world around us, and not feel ashamed by it, or fear ridicule. Love your body, appreciate your physical expression and role on this big beautiful planet earth. 🌱💛
And even though I feel this way, I choose to show what I want on my channel and videos. It is my choice not to show more of my body publicly on the internet. I appreciate your support and respect!

2024-07-15 21:46:07 +0000 UTCJust perusing older content I’ve missed, and found this poignant one. People don’t think very much. Regarding creators. Content is the creators suffrage not the viewers eh Stick to your guns, lol you’ve done great being you for you. I’d say majority have no idea the work going into the video content. Even if you have a cameraman, the editing, and (retakes, if any) is a lot of personal time out of garden and daily time of Self. Add the self filming , with tripod set up and tear downs and it’s a full time job with overtime. So thank you N G for your efforts eh

2023-12-28 18:55:46 +0000 UTCI understand. On a farm there’s always things to do. So, you could film YouTube content and content for Vimeo. Just a thought…

2023-04-02 20:44:40 +0000 UTCYouTube doesn't like nudity, so I don't anything more there. For my membership, I switched my video platform from YouTube to Vimeo not too long ago, so that I can have more freedom. However, I show what I choose to show, sometimes that's more, sometimes less. My channel is about so much more than nudity though. "Naked" because I garden chemical free, organic. And while I do believe in freedom of the human body and promote a deeper connection to the natural world around us, I don't show everything on the internet. Not everyone shares that same view, and unfortunately use and abuse that kind of content.

2023-04-02 19:06:46 +0000 UTCI may have missed your explanation about why you don’t face the camera while gardening. Please, with all due respect, fill me in. Thank you.

2022-09-14 15:49:29 +0000 UTCI just signed up and I've been watching you on YouTube for over a year... I've been viewing primarily for the knowledge that is presented in such a pleasing package "In a fear inspiring way I am wonderfully made" Psalm 139:14.... You are certainly wonderfully made!!!! Now that I see the photos that you've been kind enough to unlock and share I'm very pleased. Beauty was meant to be beheld.

2022-08-17 09:31:49 +0000 UTCI’ve been a naturist all my life and love it. Only get dressed when having to go out I love doing every day things in the buff I enjoy not having something on all the time. And being able to save so much money and not having to do so much laundry. Did meet up with someone that seemed offended once but kind of think they were just jealous

2022-07-31 02:14:27 +0000 UTCThank you reaching out and for being so thorough in your comment. You’ve given this a lot of thought! I started this channel to document what my husband and I were building here, so that we can look back on it and see the progress we’ve made. I had no expectations at all. I came up with the channel name because it was catchy, made me giggle, and encompassed what I do here - organic chemical free gardening and having a deeper relationship with nature. I love being outside without my clothes on, but I’m not always as you can tell. Sometimes I wear clothes, sometimes I don’t, and sometimes I wear partly clothes. I show what I choose to show publicly on the internet because unfortunately there are many who use and abuse that type of content, over sexualizing it. I dress and wear what I like to wear because it makes me feel good. Sex is a beautiful thing, and being sexual is part of our human nature, and in itself is a sacred spiritual act and a powerful energy. Tantric arts teach us of this. But there are many who don’t view it this way, and as I said before, use and abuse it. I have no control over the perspectives of others, only my own. Many come here because of my channel name and my thumbnails, and I think that’s a wonderful thing, and what you of course want when having a channel on YouTube or in any other creative endeavor. I certainly never would’ve anticipated this kind of viewership, and am very grateful for it. I hope that people stay to hear the message I deliver in each video, and hope to inspire others through those thoughtful words, but I know some just come to see a naked woman, and when they don’t see more than what they hoped (on YouTube go figure), they are disappointed. Others absolutely get it, love it and watch every video! I have had every comment and message that you can possibly think of across the spectrum. Some upset I’m not showing enough, others think I show way too much, and everything in between. Perhaps I will share some of those in a future member video! You can’t make everyone happy. That’s the nature of putting anything you create into the world. I have learned this, and am still learning this. I can only continue to do what makes me happy and brings me joy, and hope others will join me there. If not, that’s okay. Life is fleeting and you can’t spend your life worrying about what other people think about you. Enjoy life, be you, whatever that looks like today, stay open to ideas and new things, knowing that we and the world around us is constantly changing and evolving! Thanks again 💛

2022-07-10 16:22:56 +0000 UTCI am afraid I am one of those who subscribed to your Patreon expecting to see more nudity. Not OnlyFans stuff, but more you doing the gardening while feeling the sun on every inch of your skin. Why would I think this? Well, your thumbnails on YouTube,. Although in Vlog 8 you describe them as fun, which is perfectly reasonable. They are fun. But your YouTube video "Behind the name" has footage of you naked but for a semi-transparent dress, which shows off your behind at one point, and video of you watering a house plant which implies you are bare from the waist down. Plus several "modestly shot" scenes of you nude at the work bench. Also on your website you include a tasteful nude of yourself. Plus the merchandise on your website features a logo of a tasteful rear-view nude of a lady gardener. And your website mentions that Patreon includes footage not on YouTube. Now I am not accusing you of running a bait-and-switch, at no point do you state that your Patreon will be naughtier than YouTube, but I don't feel it's unreasonable for a chap to have different expectations than what's actually on offer. In your Vlog 8 you explain your feelings on nudity and how working in the garden naked is for you a spiritual, and not a sexual, experience. I respect that and ultimately it's down to you and what you feel comfortable sharing on the internet. To be perfectly honest though, should your feelings change . . . I would also respect that. I am intending to stick around, at least to the first renewal, it would be churlish not to. And while I will, almost certainly not be seeing much nudity, I will probably learn something about gardening in harmony with the Earth. Meanwhile thank you for sharing this delightful image of yourself, your long hair, and your shapely buttocks and thighs make it a beautiful image. A definitive "Artistic Nude." Thank you. And it did make me smile that you're using this image to illustrate your Moon phase calendar.

2022-05-18 09:24:13 +0000 UTCI meant simple pleasures of nature. Sorry

2022-05-18 00:54:46 +0000 UTCYour posted photo so superbly conveys the pure joy and sensuous pleasure of being out and enjoying the Simone pleasures of nature. And nothing connects us better wit nature than gardening

2022-05-18 00:42:00 +0000 UTCGood for you!! How exciting! I’d suggest you check out info on permaculture and food forest. See how that resonates with you. It’s less hands on work, maintenance. You ultimately build a garden where everything works together in a system and requires less time from you. It mimics nature. Especially since you have some land to work with. You don’t have to go real big, but you can expand as you grow with it. Also, learn as much as you can about soil health. Get your soil tested and see what it’s missing in nutrients and minerals. Getting your soil right is key! Overtime with the right amendments, it’ll get better and better for you. Find good sources for organic compost or start making it yourself. The fruits and veggies love it!

2022-05-16 12:03:30 +0000 UTCSo unlike you guys, I was a city boy for most of my life. NYC, Boston, Long Beach California. I got away from it all and now in North Carolina in cow country so to speak. Small house but more property then i know what to do with. I have never had a green thumb at all and was considering a vegetable garden. Any tips for a guy who does not know much on it? And maybe start out simple?

2022-05-07 17:24:58 +0000 UTCYou are spot on! I don’t understand why there is such a stigma in our culture about being outside enjoying our natural freedom. I participate in a 100+ acre forested clothing optional resort in NW Oregon where I’ve had the fortune of “stewarding” a remote 5 acre portion of the property which I’ve made into a park with a small 8x16 vegetable garden. The garden is similar to yours but on a much smaller and rustic scale. It was all created and maintained over the years in the freedom that you describe. I wish everyone could feel comfortable and accepted in that same kind of freedom in their own back yards. There’s nothing nasty or inappropriate about it. It’s as nature intended. It’s too cold and rainy in the NW to enjoy this Naked Gardening Day, but it’s a lifestyle we can choose to practice any day in our safe surroundings. Thanks for taking us on your journey and sharing what you’ve been learning. We’re never too old or experienced to learn anything new. You are much appreciated. – Rich.
