I am Barnabás Őry, organic farmer and gardener. Organic vegetable growing has been my main focus for almost 10 years now. In 2013, I got involved in organic gardening in order to grow food for my family. Then in 2014, I worked as an intern at the Budaházi Biodynamic Garden in Domonyvölgy while attending university. From 2015, I ran the organic farm of the Herencsényi Eco-Association for two seasons. In December 2016, I graduated from Szent István University in Gödöllő as an agricultural engineer, and in 2017 I founded my own farm, which operated as the Veresi Organic Garden for the first two seasons. After moving to the hills of Cserhát in Nógrád county, it became Cserhát Organic Garden.
In recent years, the idea that the valuable experience gained in farming could be transferred to self-sufficient gardening has become increasingly important to me. The principles, methods and techniques are actually the same, so we can produce extremely efficiently and effectively in a smaller organic garden. I created the 3-hour garden so that I could share my knowledge and experience with hobby gardeners as well. The 3-hour garden is a 1000-square-foot organic garden where we grow our own family’s vegetables with less than 3 hours of gardening a week on average.
