How I Made my Primitive Stackable Baskets for Summer Harvest
Primitive cultures learned to use the natural materials of the environment to create tools to make life easier and help insure their survival. Today basketry is admired for the beautiful designs and intricate weaves handcrafted by skilled artisans but historically baskets were made for purposes much more important than just a home decoration.
In this video I demonstrate a simple weave that I learned to create durable and functional baskets that can be used to collect and store seeds, grains and more. I used the leaves of the Mexican blue palm (Brahea armata) which is native to northern Baja California, Mexico but other species of fan palms can also be used. The Mexican blue palm has very strong yet flexible leaves that result in a durable basket. I made two identical baskets that are stackable. Each basket took me approximately twenty hours to make. These baskets will be appearing in future videos.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):
Who films you?
I do. I travel alone, shoot, edit, upload, everything.
How many cameras do you use?
Usually I use just one camera. When I have underwater scenes then I also use a GoPro camera. I get different angles by moving the camera around and repeating the action to create a more cinematic viewing experience for the audience.
Where is this place?
In order to protect the integrity of the natural landscape I prefer to be very vague about the locations I use. There are places that I used to visit that were so beautiful and untouched but the consequences of social media brought all kinds of people to visit and sadly some people do not respect nature and have badly damaged these places. Therefore I do not share exactly where I go.
Do you workout?
Yes, I workout, but not in a gym. I have some weights that I use and also do a lot of bodyweight exercises. I also run and sometimes swim. I hike frequently do collect wild foods and to shoot these videos so I’m very active all the time.
Are you vegan or vegetarian?
I wish I could maintain my health on a primal diet that does not include animals but unfortunately that did not work and I ended up with health problems as a result of those attempts. From my studies, observations of nature, and personal experience I have come to believe that the best diet for optimal human health is a primal diet (paleo).
