My husband and I knew that we were going to move, so we didn't plant the garden. But, the garden decided otherwise, we left our mobile home to a homeless family, and they have volunteer potatoes, tomatillos, butternut squash, and tomatoes. When they came up I told my husband to just let them grow, that someone would make use of them so he kept them weeded up until we loaded up and left.
What a blessing!
Comment of the year! This is what it means to be a follower of The I Am!❤
BLESSINGS
Such a sweet blessing ❤
@@Dee-MuckGirlGardeneryour comment gives me chills
“It’s like a little surprise party I hold for myself!” 😂
I’m a rural San Diego gardener zone 10 and years ago my sweet Hubbs added market lights all across my garden so I could garden at night when the days are too hot. I LOVE night gardening. It’s so peaceful.
That’s a great idea. I’m in zone 4 but any sunny day over 80 is rough here so post sundown watering would be so nice!
You made my wife's day today Jess!
Thank you so much for the personal greeting video to my Wife Dawn, She was so disappointed when she couldn't attend the Idaho event. Thank you for the blessing❤❤❤❤🎉🎉
I call thick fog like that "Jurassic Park weather" 😂 can just imagine the dinosaurs rising up out of the fog.
My partner calls it "a pea souper"
When my oldest son was little, it was "froggy"!😆
I was so excited to harvest my garlic today. I have about 150 bulbs. Making lots of garlic powder in two weeks. Some carrots, radishes, lettuce and onions get picked as we need it. I don’t think our tomatoes will be ready until mid August but they are looking good. The garden gives me such pleasure.
I’ve been watching you for YEARS and years and this is my favorite tour ever. THE MAGIC of that ripe maturing paradise in the anticipatory morning fog is palatable.
I could almost smell it - and it seemed like time paused and held its breath through the entire vlog.
Just wow.
I really miss these garden tours, keep watching them over and over!
Sunday morning. Hanging out with Jess and Watching Roots and Refuge’s garden tour while making food for our church pot luck today.. while drinking coffee from Beulah Roasting Co. Talk about a blessed morning! ☀️🫶🏽
Hope everyone else is feeling uplifted this morning!
Your videos are a refuge for me. I don't have my homestead yet, still in the corporate world and tending to a small container garden but with big dreams of what's to come.
I’m jealous of you Southern ladies whose gardens are so far along! 😂. It’s just now starting to warm up here in North Idaho
Bear in mind that in 2018 you said the Silver Slicer was a cucumber you would always grow and I ordered a packet of them along with a few other things from Hudson Valley Deed, they arrived here in NC the week of July 4th. I planted them and they grew and I got cucumbers from them until the first frost! So plant a second round of our favorite cucumber and enjoy the BEST until frost. I am NC zone 7b so you should have plenty of time to enjoy them still!!!
I just planted those this year. ❤
@GlacialRidgeHomestead you will LOVE them. No need to peel them when picked at a nice size. If you miss one peel it, cut in half and scoop out the big seeds and enjoy, even then, they aren't bitter!!!!
What perfect timing!! I had to force myself out of my own garden to get a break from the heat. And, now, I can sit inside and enjoy a visit with you in your garden instead, Jess! ☺️ As always, thanks so much for sharing it all with us! 💚
1:30 Mug in the wild!
I’ve never been so early. As soon as I see Roots and Refuge drop a garden tour, I click! Love your videos 💚
What a fantastic garden. Those of us like me who grow a small number of veg and herbs enjoy the exuberance of your garden.
When you mentioned the secret garden and wanting one of your own …. That is my dream too. I love your garden, your farm, the whole community that you have built on here and in real life. You are a true blessing. Thank you for sharing with us.❤
The appearance of curved berms where your local heirlooms are planted is absolutely stunning! 😍💚
I'm so jealous girl! My tomatoes are just starting to flower. I miss planting in April when we lived in Oklahoma. Now we live in Northern Washington and are lucky to plant by June 1st. Watching channels like yours keep me sane when I can't plant.
Rolly Polies! I grew up with them and when I moved up north they thought I was crazy when I mentioned them. I love them, in small numbers, they bring back wonderful childhood memories! Your garden is getting a warm cozy feeling to it!
I love hearing the rooster in the background
Watching this and Denmark VS Germany simultaneously, is my kind of multitasking 😊
Sidenote/afterthought:
A really foggy silent morning walk up the entire driveway. Like a slow tv thing, meditating calm. Like a little treat.
Sitting down with a bowl of pasta & pesto made from my back-step container garden. ☺️
Is this your first fully foggy garden tour? I feel like it is!!! 💚🌱🌱🌱
I just bought this house December 2023 I started this garden small as I would call it, and in ground. Starting over here in northern Indiana I guess I forgot how much weeding it takes. I prayed today not knowing what to do moving forward cuz I need to expand it a lot to grow all my own food as possible and your site came to mind. I was very encouraged by the variety of ways that you are growing and God reminded me not to despise the Small beginnings and to begin imagining the progression ❤ thanks for always sharing 🙏
A beautiful garden!! So much work.
I love watching your videos.
I always tell my husband I’m going to visit with my friend when I watch your videos because that’s how it feels!
I appreciate you going out so early today to give us a garden update! I bless you Jess 🙏
Yes!!! The Secret Garden! What a great movie & garden. Goals!
I recently hosted a garden tea devotional time with a group of women from my church and it was wonderful!! Highly recommend!
To rid of bugs, sprinkle cinnamon on the pedals. Bugs will be gone!
I wonder if you could blend those melons and make ice cubes for cucumber water?
I love to see your garden! so much goodness! my garden is in a short coolish season so it's fun and different to see so much warm season crop abundance! your cottage garden is like a tropical garden and is supposed to be overgrown!!! Hey, where is Will lately?
Maybe next season have the ground cherries at the south ends of the beds where they'll be the most exposed.
I love basil...but dill is my absolute favorite! It's great in scrambled eggs, and I always put dill in my potato salad. Yum! I love how much you love your garden. I wish I could still do all of this, but it is what it is...God bless you and your family Jess.
I couldn't do the gardening in the heat anymore...I'm old 😂 but I love your garden. 😊God bless
I just found a spoon tomato that popped up. I thought I had caught them in time last year to not self seed 😂
Jess, it was so funny when you were in the garden and in the background Whit was trying to get your attention. He’s so sweet!!
Jess could please explain the differences between beans? Which variety are for shelling and or fresh eating?
Yessss love little hidden places in my garden! Thanks for another beautiful tour Jess! We love you 💚
put sand around seedlings for roll poles and slugs
Wow! The foliage on your plants in the pepper high tunnel is such a rich dark green!
sending you so much love and positivity! You were such a delight to meet at Murry Fest Midwest!
In dry Australia, we water of evening as it gives the plant time to absorb the water before sun up to evaporate.
I find the vegie patch thrives in the heat water it nightly rather than having wet feet in the extreme heat, cooking the roots while having wet feet .
This makes sense to me! I've been doing a lot of research - should I water morning or night? So much conflicting info out there that I'm not sure, but I like the way you explained that!
Thank you for coming to Idaho ! I was blessed to hear all 3 sessions.
I loved meeting you today and getting home to a FULL tour was the cherry on top!!! Your second talk today was just what my heart needed to hear. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Just returned from the Idaho conference. Went with my gardening bestie and it was her first intro to Jess. She was blown away. It was so exiting to share someone so special with my dear friend. That Conference was fantastic!
I just got my first 20'x10'ft greenhouse delivered this week, Ive been gardening for years now so i feel confident in my abilities to keep things going during cold wisconsin winters❄️ and maybe one day ill be doing my own garden tours😊 thanks for posting yours, because this is what motivates me to keep doing what im doing!
Corn meal sprinkled along the edges of the bed should take care of most pests as well as beer traps here and there.
I spy with my little eye a mug of tea near the little dahlias! I set my cup down all over the place and am constantly looking for it, inside and out. Haha! Glad I’m not the only one! :-)
Going on my 5th year of my roots and refuge inspired garden! Love your videos
Hi Jess, What a dream garden yours is! I recently learned that 'allelopathic plants' such as Mexican sunflowers grown with your beans and tomatoes might inhibit your veggies growth. Sunflowers and even their shells dropped by birds can inhibit growth of other plants sunflowers send out chemicals from their roots, leaves and seeds. I love Mexican Sunflowers but was afraid to plant them this year due to their allelopathy. Fennel is also allelopathic and other plants as well.
We have spoon tomatoes in Scotland. They are little pops of joy but the plants are indestructible!! Love them.
You’ve got the most beautiful gardens ever❤
That lettuce leaf basil 🌱💚😍 I would make a sandwich with tomato, mozzarella and this basil and maybe add chicken and/ or bacon Yum 🤤
I love the planted mug beside the flowers, haha
So LUSH!!! Loving watching what you’re doing with it all over at the farmers table!
Love Mexican Sunflowers!! I’ve seen so many pollinators on them. Sometimes even humming birds, bees, and butterflies on the same plant
I love spending time with you and your garden is beautiful!💚🙏🏻
Hahaha! Your coffee cup in the flower bed! I guess it’s just a gardener thing. When I can find something like my coffee cup, tea glass, scissors, pruners, phone, latest book I’m reading…I go looking in the beds. 😂 In Southeast Texas 9a, it’s so hot here already. My peppers were cooking on the plants so I moved them into the shade. I’m so glad I planted some in pots so they could be moved!
Perfect video to watch on a Saturday! ❤
Every gaden needs wood stumps/chairs throughout right? ;-) Our mini back yard opens up onto the street street behind us. I didn't think that I could start a garden in my back yard but man o man am I glad that I turned my waiting room into a classroom! I have a chair here & there so my mini garden becomes my misty morning secret garden & people can't stare at me when they walk or drive by. I'm planting holy basel for the 1st time this year. When we were visiting family last weekend we stoped at Mountain Rose Herb & I got some Holy tea... I forgot that it was boiling on the stove top lol I'm excited to see how it tastes & feels 😆 Every time you say hibiscus I think of Rosel hibiscus even though I grew up with regular hibiscus 🌺 😂 I've become a bit of a tea lover the last year or so. How do I ask to be invited over to sit in your garden & drink tea without sounding weird? 🤔 yea... too late... I've gotten weird... time to go back our to the garden so I can claim the heat as the reason that I'm weird. 🙃
Those propagated basil that don’t go to seed would be a great item to sell at your farmers market. 👍
I laughed out loud when you talked about wood chips. I’m hauling all my decomposed, full of weeds, wood chips turned dirt out as I’m listening to RUclips videos! It’s currently 89f with a real feel of 95f at my house in Utah. I come out and work until I can’t stand it and then go inside and cool off. I’ve been at it since early this morning.
Garden looks wonderful Jess! I could certainly see myself doing the slow walk through it and enjoying every surprise around each corner. Well done! I smile at the temperatures you call cool - I melt at 32 C (90 F). It's been mid 20 C (77 ish F) and I find that just nice...lol.
From being owned by many kitties over the years and many vet visits with wounds.
Cats have wounds from whatever but the wounds close up very quickly and they are prone to developing infections or abscesses very quickly. My Vet said to not put neosporin on the wound because it will cause the wound to close up too quickly.
I just had to cook up all my peppers that i froze last year because I needed room for my current peppers. Ive been harvesting them for about 5 weeks now... i just cooked all the peppers, tomatoes etc.. together and now ill freeze small little puck size and have them as needed.... any tips on recipes are soooo welcomed ❤❤😂😂
Haha. Spotted a coffee mug in the flower bed in the greenhouse!!
YES... the Secret Garden was my jam! Love the enclosed magical feeling. I grow in Indiana and it takes a minute to get that vibe; especially with our weird weather patterns this year.
I also dream of having a garden party in my garden this year!!!❤️🌱
Because of you, I let a lot of volunteers grow. I still get Mexican sour gerkins and ground cherries every year ❤️
We have juiced armenian cukes before and they are so good as a cucumber lemonade.
I was so excited to find a volunteer plant in my garden this year. Actually, several sunflowers and 2 tomatoes. The reason I am so excited is because I live in zone 5b, southcentral Iowa. And over the last few years our winters have been so extreme. So much so that I have never seen temps as low as they have been. And I have lived here for over 30 years. Really thinking about moving and heading south. These old bones need more warmth. LOL!! Thanks for sharing your foggy morning with us. Reminds of when I lived in Santa Clara, California. Take care, you are looking a little worn down. Don't forget to take time for you. Blessings Jess and everyone!
❤ I never grow enough basil - so versatile! I make tea bags with basil for winter tea when I can’t do fresh. 😊
Jess your garden is beautiful & bountiful❣️Always love to see how you use & preserve your bounty!! I just bought a Freeze dryer so looking for peoples favorite herb seasoning recipes
😊❤Thank you Jess for sharing your garden I love seeing it grow I love seeing you provide food for your family and I'm kind of jealous because I'm having trouble this year😢 the heat has been terrible Here in Michigan!! 🤗 Also some exciting news I had my first tomato sandwich summer is finally here when you take a bite of deliciousness 😋🤤!! I hope you get your soon❤
You brought back that west coast dryness 😂
Your garden is my dream garden.
Have needed some motivation to get back into the garden after a difficult growing year in the UK - feels great to have you for company! Was surprisingly productive after your last few vids, thank you for the inspiration, as always 💚
It's been terrible here in the UK! How can it be simultaneously too hot and dry but also too wet and cold ?! For everything!
Jess definitely helps keep spirits up though!
@Sky-Child one of the best gardeners I know has said that this year is one of the worst she's ever known for growing veg, and Jess also said her garden seems slow... I think it may just be one of those years
🍓Waiting for the heat to die down before my garden duties-🔥but I can still be in the garden! Happy for the latest tour!!💗🍅🌿
My mom always canned cucumbers and made pickles. The wonderful smell of dill!!!
Oh just leave me in the cottage garden Heaven on heart ❤️
Hey Jess, I get the squeaky beans, I feel that way about cheese curds! Taste great but you have to be aware of the squeaky experience! I think every year in the garden is a different experience! Weather, pest pressure and even my mood/health/ schedule will dictate the moments in the garden that I am just enjoying being in it! I am planning the fall garden and I am looking forward to it more than usual this year as it has been a strange Spring/summer so far this year! I hope that you can get the most out of your garden this season! I inter planted a lot more herbs and different tea plants this year so every day is different and exciting! Peace and blessings! 💖
Garden tour hooray 🎉🎉
The traditional cup of coffee was missing ❤
Yay! So excited to watch this! 🎉
I love my yard long beans in a hot cast iron skillet with a little chicken fat and sliced garlic...and a dash of salt.
Cook till you like them and mmm...hum. It's tasty stuffs. They produce SO dern fast too. My poor Maxibells are getting munched by someone who isn't me this year so it's yard long's to the rescue!
What an amazing place to live and grow!
Thanks Jess been following you since your move,Your garden is gorgeous 🇨🇦🙏🐝🤗
I love your videos and your bird tattoos ❤
That’s nice to know about the stressed tomatoes- we had 6-7” of rain in 3 days and extremely hot weather right after, and about 8 of my 50 tomatoes plants were over 50% wilty!
I was worried about disease, but it never spread and they have slowly perked up. Most of the bad plants are now only 25% wilted. I plan to replace the last three that still haven’t perked back up, only because a friend shared some of her nice greenhouse plants with me.
It’s my first heirloom-only garden, and I’m wondering if they are more susceptible. My MIL’s non-heirloom tomatoes grown only 20 mins away never had wilt.
I love listening to your abundance talk, Jessica. Your cheerfulness and knowledge of what you have growing is quite contagious. :) You have crab grass (that's the grass that sprawls out in a flat radius).
So beautiful. I live in SW Ontario and we have been having 30 - 35 C temp. over the past couple of weeks, although it has cooled a bit this week. I must say that personally I don't enjoy the the hot humid weather. I have really noticed in the past few years our summer temperatures have risen several degrees. Last winter my brother didn't use his snow blower once. He had to dump out the fuel to put it into storage. I feel that climate change is real and we need politicians that will take notice.
I agree 100 percent.
The only real thing about climate change is that the government is doing it using geoengineering…on purpose to hurt those of us that are self sufficient…..
Your garden is looking sooo nice!! Mine is just getting going here in n. Idaho. Yours gives me encouragement!! Thanks!!
What a wonderful oasis. You guys have done such a beautiful job ❤
Love the pottery mug with in the Dahlias.
In Va, just ordered my fall crop seeds. This week its time for the bean seeds, squash, garden greens ( kale, mustard, collards). In 2 weeks will do another batch. Our tomatoes seem to be behind too this year
It’s really lovely this year Jess! 👏 👏 👏
Thank you! That was LOVELY and informative. Liked, commented, subscribed, clicking 'all' on the notification bell.
Ooh ooh! Garden tour!
I know you love old movies and if you haven't seen Brigadoon you should watch it, amazing musical and the fog is reminding me of that movie ❤
'I went to a garden party..." Reminds me of a song.....
