Meet Mark Valencia, the man behind YouTube sensation Self Sufficient Me, a gardening channel with a difference. A self-taught gardener, Mark has captivated over one million subscribers with his honest approach to outdoor living, mistakes and all. Embarking on a journey of self-sufficiency over 10 years ago, Mark and his family turned their Queensland acreage into a thriving food source, recording their journey along the way.

In this video, we go behind the YouTube personality to find out more about Mark and how he went from Army Sergeant to successful video creator.

We are proud to inspire people from all walks of life across Australia to care for the environment, to cultivate an outdoor sanctuary, to grow food, and to learn and inspire each other, our children, neighbours and friends. Through our Cultivating Connections series, we hope to bring some of these wonderful stories to life.
