hey, you should doodle up a map of your garden, mostly just the paths, and keep it on the corner of the screen, and when you reach a new area of the garden simply have a red dot appear there!! It would be much better to understand the layout of your garden that way, its so big I always get lost in your videos :0
That lady statue is called "Hebe" and she's the goddess of Youth. I have the same one! She's about five feet tall. Sometimes I put a candle in her cup or lately,birdseed. I am dying to get out in the garden today,I've deferred too much of my garden clean-up. I love the idea of overplanting Guara!!! Going to try that in a sunny,from bed!
How did you get so lucky and find the perfect house and land. Just what a gardener like you would live in. Hope all the beautiful landscape survives. Glad I found you, have watched so many videos these last two days! Thanks for doing them for all of us. wj
Wow!! A lot of snow!!!! I thought you would curl up with a good book and we would see you in the Spring🌺🌸🌹🌿. You are a busy busy person. A lot of good ideas brewing. I am excited to see how your ideas turn out😊
We rent in London, England right in the centre and we're so lucky to have a back area. It was mostly concrete but we've transformed it. We used to have a big tree too but it got cut down last year and. Totally get you about my trees seeding. This one would actually drop its leave stalks and they rooted everywhere they fell. Excited to se your garden change!
Beautiful home and landscape! Don't feel bad about removing trees. I took out 3 massive white oaks off my property. They were all over 150 years old, and easily over 100 feet tall.....cost me about $7,000 to get them off my property. I replaced them with Chinese plum trees, fig trees & nectarine trees....... I love trees, but the white oaks were throwing way to much shade in my yard......make a huge difference once they were removed.....
hopefully your garden will kick back to life... living in a tropical country I really can't imagine how much difficulty all this snow is causing... good luck...
Watching this video made me excited for my own garden. However, since I'm in East Texas and it's going to be 70 today I can go ahead and get to work. Love your videos...keep'em coming. Oh! I am most excited about your future vegetable garden. That's what I'm most into...and chickens. You will be surprised how long you just stand there and watch them peck and scratch around. So relaxing and mindless...so I would put them close. Have a great day and stay warm!
julie011569 Happy birthday enjoy your day. I'll be 77 this year WOW times does go by too fast,. so many things you want to do (like plant a bunch of plants) (:
Oh I ❤the idea of a tour a month to see how it all progresses & changes! Enjoy your planning stage now because you're about to be crazy busy!! 🌱🍃🌾🌸🍄🌻🌼🌹🌺🍀🌲🌿🌵🌳
I just love love love your property! We are moving into a new house next month, and have to start from scratch on our backyard. The planning is so much fun!!!
Hello Laura, I just started watching you this month, I really want to get more knowledgeble on taking care of my plants. I do more container plants and will be going to my local plant nursery to make my very first succulant wreath that I saw you do in a video ;-) Please keep the video's coming and thank you for blessing so many of us with your talents and sharing your idea's. Spring is around the corner and wishing you and your family many blessings.
I enjoy every minute of your videos! Aaron must have worked extra hard putting in all those inserts! I bet your sick of winter, I know I would I too will look forward to the monthly videos being from Southern California I can't believe anything survived under all that snow. Please do more videos. My husband and I really enjoy them. Remember think Martha Stewart. Actually your probably to young but she used to have a daily or weekly (I don't remember) show and years ago many many she did a lot of gardening around her property and them she evolved. 💕💕💕💕
This is a great video with all the inserts of what it was like in the warmer weather, it gives me some hope, as my garden is not very inspiring right now! I love that you will be growing vegetables this year, me too! My hubby has built me a raised bed to have on our patio as our garden is tiny and the patio gets the most sun, I'm so excited about it, I'm planning and reading books whilst it's cold, I look forward to the monthly updates on your garden what a brilliant idea 😊
I'm sure that you get tired of the snow (especially that much of it). Here in Charlotte, NC we get very little snow, mostly ice, so I love and miss the snows we used to get in VA. Your gardens are beautiful, even in the snow! I'd try to focus on the good that it does people with wells and how it effects the levels in rivers, creeks, streams and ponds. I love snow! 💜
Wow. I’ve never seen that much snow. I was watching the vlog of clearing off the roof and you walking around the house on the roof and it gave me major panic!!!! I’m so thankful you guys didn’t get hurt. That was crazy!!! So that was 4 years ago and we had 12 inches here in OK and we were freaking out. I could never have gotten on the roof. Our roofs are pretty steep so not as much stays on it. Anyway I can tell your anxious to see how your garden is after the snow melts. I feel the same way. I’ll have to see in a couple of months the damage. -14 here is going to kill a lot. Hope you never face that much snow again.
Miss Laura, you don't want the chickens too far away from the house/barn area... It makes it that much more work to feed them and to get the coop cleaned out, as well as to get the eggs every day. Don't forget about that, as well as the fact that it is a pleasing sight to see every day, knowing you're getting your eggs fresh. People love to know that, and sit about watching the birds. I know lots of folks who raise their own birds who enjoy the birds right front & center. Justin Rhodes on RUclips is someone you should check out in regards to his chickens and how he raises them. =) Love seeing the house/yard areas Laura, you've got a lovely place. 🌾Merry meet 🌿
Garden Answer Yeah, Justin's vids are awesome, TONS Of information. *I've* learned so very much from him Laura! I cannot wait until we move to the farm and I can get my own chickens. Good Luck getting chickens. Looking forward to seeing your coop. Oh, a tip... Electric fencing like Justin Rhodes fencing, get it. You'll love it. Have fun sweetie!
Great to see the garden under it's snowy blanket! I love a longer video. Exciting plans! Although it's a shame to see mature trees felled I do think you have to make a garden your own! We are also in the process of changing our garden, which once belonged to my mother and father in-law....eek! But as I said you have to make your space your own and enjoy it!
in the spring your husband should do a video with his drone of how everything flows.. I love your style. If I didn't have 2 black hands that is exactly what my gardens would look like!!
love the video... nice to see the before Beacuse I can only imagine what it will look like after!!! Please do monthly update videos so we can follow along.... your home is beautiful!!
We use snowblowers in Canada which save your back from shoveling when we have a snowy winter. Climate change is certainly making weather less predictable
I love your vlog videos. I'm starting a veggie garden to this spring. I'm excited that you are too so I can get some tips from you! Can you show the grapes you have in your garden and give tips about growing them? I was gonna try this to grow them this year too.
I live in a 800 ft2 apartment atm and seeing a huge house with that amount of land around it is mind bubbling to me... I cant even imagine what it would cost to live there!! Here in Belguim, only a king and queen could own a property that big :p everything out there seems XXXL compaired to little old belgium
I am SO excited to start our veggie garden I can hardly stand it! I planted just a few things last year, but am excited to get really into it this year. I'm thinking of even doing some videos on preserving the harvest as well- drying, freezing, canning, root cellars... Should be fun!
I hear you on the electrical poles. We have/had 3, one we got buried, one can't be removed no matter what, the other is a street light and wire runs from one pole to the other all the way down the south lawn. City is being difficult about removing streetlight. It's on a quiet street and only lights my and my neighbor's driveway entrance and he's ok with it being removed. Ugh so frustrating.
Good idea. But you haven't answered my questions about raising succulents when the only windows you have are facing South! Please take some time soon because I'm loosing my plants! Thank you so much.
I have just found your wonderful video. I note you have made about 308 videos and i want to follow them in order. Could you make it clear not only what month but also the year so I don't jump from months in the wrong year order? Your garden and skills are very inspirational to a novice like me. Some plant names are lost in translation as I live in Devon England. Keep up the good work. Where do you get the energy to cope with such a large and gorgeous plot? Thank you
Do most plants survive such heavy snow? We have the opposite trying to survive the heat. How do you find the time to do everything? Can you show an overall plan of your property. I live on 2 acres and find it hard to plan the full area .
Hi , Which month will u b d best for u to start planting again so tat we can see some beautiful garden again coz I am frm Asia which we have hot sunny day here.
Random question, How do you plow a pebble driveway and not move around all the stones into places you don't want them? I want to start using pebbles in pathways in my yard, but I'm afraid winter plowing will mess up my work. Thanks!
I have gravel (pebble size) driveway and have had it plowed in past (I now snow blow it). I wouldn't call for a plow until there was 6" or more of snow and I had driven on it a bit to pack it down (I have SUV). That way, the truck doesn't plow off the gravel. That said, my driveway is crowned to facilitate water runoff and occasionally the plow would hit the high center at an angel and plow some gravel. When that happened, I would rake it in spring.
Your property is gorgeous! Your other home was huge to me compared to what we have here in CA. When you said your last home was small made me chuckle. I can't wait for your updates!
How your garden has changed since then! Amazing!
So interesting to go back five years to see what your home and gardens looked like shortly after you moved there. 😊
hey, you should doodle up a map of your garden, mostly just the paths, and keep it on the corner of the screen, and when you reach a new area of the garden simply have a red dot appear there!! It would be much better to understand the layout of your garden that way, its so big I always get lost in your videos :0
SUCH a good idea! Thank you!!! :)
No problem !!
I felt cold just watching you walk through all that snow. I love your new garden ideas and hope to see the garden in the Spring video.
That lady statue is called "Hebe" and she's the goddess of Youth. I have the same one! She's about five feet tall. Sometimes I put a candle in her cup or lately,birdseed. I am dying to get out in the garden today,I've deferred too much of my garden clean-up. I love the idea of overplanting Guara!!! Going to try that in a sunny,from bed!

hopefully your garden will kick back to life... living in a tropical country I really can't imagine how much difficulty all this snow is causing... good luck...
This video made me so happy. :) I'm super excited for the monthly Garden tours!
I agree that you should have some of that snow burden removed or set in another part of your property where you want extra water...liked!
I love that you're going to do monthly tours!! Can't wait to see how everything grows in. :)
I love that you take care of the birds during your winter time🙌🏻
wow crazy but love idea of garden tours monthly so fun at end of yr we can see em all together

That's a good point. I need to keep the coop in a convenient spot for all that. Thanks for the tip! I'll check out Justin's vids! :) ~Laura

We ordered our tickets today for the Outdoor Extravaganza in Detroit! So excited!!
monthly is such a great idea.
love the way you explain so much in such a nice way...
Please do a all-season montage when next winter comes around, would be so fun to see the changes throughout the year in one video! :D
That is a lot of work to keep up with ENJOY your new home
Love your property . I remember when you just moved in .
Looooove these garden tours 💜🕊
Really enjoyed this one and we'er looking forward to each months installment.
I LOVE LOVE your videos. Why don't you buy a snow plow. Here in MICHIGAN we have scrapers for scrapping the roofs.
how in the world do you have time to do all of that. I'm impressed with you. I look forward to following you when spring comes around.
A vegetable garden!? YAY! I love your channel, so excited to see video's this spring and summer! Oh and I LOVE vegetable gardening. :)
I am SO excited to start our veggie garden I can hardly stand it! I planted just a few things last year, but am excited to get really into it this year. I'm thinking of even doing some videos on preserving the harvest as well- drying, freezing, canning, root cellars... Should be fun!

Such a great idea! I love this video!!
Gotta get some Silkie chickens love this breed ) Thanks for the tour Can't wait for spring.
You might also get a snow machine with a sled for hauling wood.
You could put the door for the chickens on the back of the tool shed. Then no moving it :)

Love watching your channel!
Gosh you guyz really have it bad, I thought weather here in the UK was bad, but in the USA it's extreme
Would you share the plans for your vegetable garden? I am also starting from scratch and it is so overwhelming!!
Don't you need to start re-planting all plants when spring arrives and snow melts?
love the planning ideas!
How long it takes for all that snow to melt? Loved your tour.
I wish had your large lot. But it looks like a lot of work.
man o man....Big lot. How are you gonna manage it ? I'd be worried affording it, maintaining it etc etc
Wow, nice pre and post snow tour of the yard. What state are you in? Way too much snow! Watching this makes me itch even harder for Spring :-)
Your property is gorgeous! Your other home was huge to me compared to what we have here in CA. When you said your last home was small made me chuckle. I can't wait for your updates!
Are your all plants died in snow or after snow they can grow again
Chickens would be so cool!
Awesome video, thanks! 😁
what's the name of the garden center you work at?
Beautifulllllllll
