Join my Patreon here https://www.patreon.com/growingyourgr... John from http://www.growingyourgreens.com/ and Josh from the Boogie Brew Compost Tea discuss the challenges faced by the Growing Your Greens channel, including recent demonetization by YouTube. John shares his frustrations about YouTube flagging his content as harmful, particularly educational videos about growing cannabis and organic gardening. In this episode, you will learn about the impacts of demonetization on creators who prioritize educational and in-depth content over algorithm-driven, surface-level videos. John explains his mission to empower viewers to grow their own organic food, herbs, and medicine, and his belief in the health benefits of high-quality, homegrown produce compared to processed store-bought options. John and Josh discuss the vague and inconsistent enforcement of YouTube’s harmful content policies, focusing on how these policies suppress creators who encourage independent thinking and healthy living. They also highlight the importance of trust and authenticity in content creation and share heartfelt testimonials from viewers about the channel's impact on their lives. After watching this episode, you will understand the challenges faced by independent creators, the importance of supporting organic gardening education, and the options John is considering to sustain his channel, such as Patreon or moving certain content to other platforms.
