'Why don't you use chemical fertiliser?'
But, for me to do
Organic it's no way back
when you see the soil, when
you see what you are growing
when you taste it, when you
taste how much sweeter and
better it is, there's no way back.
This is the natural way to do it.
of course, I sometimes think
why am I doing all of this job?
I'm not getting any money, I'm just
getting tired of all of this work.
it's something about Mother Earth
that keeps me going
After starting organic, it was
potatoes in the beginning
and then came white cabbage
and turnips and slowly more and more
like lettuce and leek, parsley
and some how I got this idea to
that's where it started
to give people a taste of 'Gabriel's
Breakfast' Barleyotto, Barley Bread..
and what I've heard is that the
Barley that I grow organic in Iceland
tastes better than
Barley in other countries.
I can lead the market, yes.
Are you nervous with me
looking over your shoulders?
No, not at all.
You're doing great
You're working so fast that
the machine can't keep up
Since 2001 I've had volunteers, they
come through WWOOF, it means
Willing Workers on Organic Farms.
all around the World that want
to help to build up organic farming.
I used to say it's like organic
growing of connections,
connections between different countries,
so they are making friends here
and connecting the World in a
positive way and helping me a lot
Part of my reason for coming here
at this time is what is going on
with the crisis, to understand
what's really happening
and to design systems from there
that are actually going to create resiliency
within our systems and
within our people.
So, when something really
major happens we are ready;
we are ready to feed
ourselves as best we can,
we are ready to meet at
the gate whatever giant is there.
I am certain that we have enough
geothermal heat to power our greenhouses
We are importing 70% of our
vegetables and 99% of our fruit
and in greenhouses
we can grow both
At the moment, the new power
plant at Hellisheidi spews 90%
of the energy into the
atmosphere, which is mad
we could have set up
greenhouses up there
to use the energy
to produce food.
We just need to
put our mind to it.
they like new trends
so once it catches on they
will take it and run with it.
We are very into that we should
eat locally but think globally.
When we started here
a friend of mine
waste my life growing tomatoes
but this is what I've been
doing for the past 19 years
