- Sean gets a visit from @twoturtleshomestead , and starts to clear brush around a hidden pile of construction stuff. Is it a score, or just junk?

All that open space will also make it easier to see Henry as he grows bigger and travels around the place more. God Bless.
For your berries; I would encourage you to check out the first berry planting video @ Cog Hill Farm. He followed what his favorite nursery (Petals from the Past) did because they have a pick your own. It is not only beautiful, but yields tremendous yields of fruit and is easy access (no poking!)
Will definitely check this out, thank you!
It’s such a joy watching you learn your way around your land. “Slowly, slowly” has become an important mantra for me to set realistic expectations. Thank you for sharing your journey!
Thank you!
Rhubarb is like gooseberries .... tastes wonderful when prepared correctly strawberry rhubarb pie, rhubarb pie, jelly, sauce ...yum.
I really miss the gooseberry plants that we left growing on the land we sold after our parents passed away.
My father had removed them from the land he grew up on in Kansas and transplanted them to our farm in Michigan when I was a child.
We also had rhubarb on that farm with a Hickory nut tree. And more rows of raspberry and strawberry plants than I could count.
My father and all of the family enjoyed a gooseberry pie every year several times through the years. As well as strawberry rhubarb pies we all learned how to bake and take to 4-H fairs to have judged yearly.
As someone already mentioned, that red thing growing in your yard is a stinkhorn mushroom-they can emit a foul odor to attract flies and other insects to carry away their spores. Yuk! I've been cutting my raspberries down really short (like to a couple of inches) and I've been getting a bigger and sweeter crop later in the year. I'm sure it depends on the type of raspberry but it would refresh your berry patch.
Rhubarb crumble is one of my go to puddings (desert) and is so easy to make but its best served with vanilla custard. Its a must in the UK. Loads of ways to cook it but the best way is to keep it simple with just the rhubarb and sugar for the base and the crumble is flour, butter and brown sugar. The custard is simple just heat 600ml double cream until steaming but not boiling. Meanwhile, mix together 6 egg yolks, 4 tbsp caster sugar, 2 tsp cornflour and ½ tsp vanilla extract in a bowl. Pour the cream onto the eggs, stirring continuously as you pour. Pour the whole lot back into the saucepan the cream came from and place over a medium heat. Stir until it thickens, about 10 mins, if it goes a bit lumpy (due to not stirring enough just pass through a sieve and enjoy.The custard is also nice with apple pie and the like. Thanks for posting
Ooh, this sounds incredible. Thank you for this recipe!
Well done! I would definately have dropped dead if a snake like that had shown up in my garden😵💫😵💫 but you were just cool as a cucumber. wow!
Thanks to Two Turtle Homestead for the gift of the Bresse chicken eggs. That was very generous of you. Sean, I really like the vision you and Holly have for the new area you are clearing. It will be wonderful for y'all to have your own berries to pick. This should be a good fertile spot for sure. Thanks for taking us along. Have a Blessed day. BTW, these berries will be great for your Mom to make some wonderful cobblers.
Thank you, Margaret!
You could always look at the burn process as a way to create some biochar for your garden - put a positive spin on the need to burn?
We've definitely been adding biochar/ashes to our compost; it's a great addition!
it will be good to get sun on your compost. I think it will be good to burn the wood cuz it may have termites
Rhubarb is excellent and I believe easily moved. A prolific plant that I found for jam and Rhubarb pie Grandma used to make.
Oh geez that’s a ton of work!!! Looks fantastic!!
We have a similar fungi we call devils finger or witches eggs. Very creepy looking. That new cleared area looks nice.
Rather than just burning the waste garden material may I suggest you chip it down to a mulch to cover your plantings or add to your compost, it’ll all rot the same way, nice find on the wood, if either you or your dad have a planer you could probably recycle that into some cash or even use it make some nice shelves or floors in the barn. Nice vlog keep up the good work Sean
That's a very good call!
Make wreaths from all those grape vines!
Good job done on clearing that brush. 😁
I think you’ll find those red tubular objects growing in your berry patch are mushrooms. Possibly witches eggs or red stinkhorns. Do some research but I’ve found mushrooms growing to be a good way that nature detoxes soil.
I don’t know much about snakes so wondering if that one would be a danger to the chickens, particularly the little ones.
Get yourself a mulberry tree or two for snacking and a few thorn-less blackberry bushes . Both can be propagated very easily. A couple of fruit trees that produce at different times so you never run out might be a good addition too.
Trim the two year canes in the winter when the leaves are down - easier to see what needs to go. Then in the early spring prune the one year old canes to 4-5 feet in length to produce more berries in the summer. If you want, I have Triple Crown and Qachita blackberry plants I can gift you. Both are thornless.
Great tips here, thank you! Will let you know about the blackberries; thanks again.
Yeay! More future baby chicks!
Absolutely, put in a row of fruit trees but also berry shrubs. If you had a few rows of blueberries, you could sell the fruit to the neighbours after ensuring plenty for your own needs. 🎉
Hey why not use the tractor to clear the brush and push the small trees over and the roots will probably come up with the tree a lot less work 😊
Thinking I might do that for the rest of the brush in that one spot.
Hi Sean 👋😁
Well done on Clearing that area so much it looks to be a lovely area to create another berrier 😊
Ooh good luck on hatching those new eggs I have everything crossed that they do well for you 😊
Sean it looks great 💪🏽 looks like great land 👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thor less blackberries are an excellent option. Prolific, large berries. Make wonderful jam and jelly, good on yogurt, cobbler. Yum. Rhubarb makes excellent muffins, in addition to pie and jam. A Country Life makes a rhubarb slushy that sounds refreshing and delicious.
The chicken would enjoy feasting on those branches you're cutting down. 😊
I think you found an old shed that collapsed. You're lucky the former owner stacked it neatly for you.
Will salal grow there? It’s like a more fibrous blueberry and it’s so good. Its pretty drought resistant from what I can see. And has a neat growing habit
I will look into this, thank you!
You could make rhubarb pie. It’s really good.
Good days work. Sounds like some good plans going on.
Stinkhorn mushroom. The red spongy thing
Be thrifty and leave berry bushes or replant them where you want them. Don't waste them
get the leaf snap app for your iphone to identify when you don't know
My kid says the red lipstick looking thing is something called a stinkhorn that hasn’t opened. The big mushroom is a “pheasants back”. 🍄
Thank you!
What kind of soil does your area have? Berries need a slightly acidic soil.
Good question! It's very acidic; we have lots of wild strawberries that grow in the pasture because of the soil composition.
Seriously think you should rent a herd of goats to get through the brush on your farm, they will clear the undergrowth, you clear the trees and you have arable land with half the effort. And goat meat is pretty darn good.
Rhubarb pie is delicious.
mushroom fungi for sure hugsssss
Hi Yeoman Sean. Me thinks you are gonna need another incubator is you get a few gobbler eggs, yes?? It's gonna be eggspectacular !! Oh Yes. a Mulberry Tree would be grand. We had one, well several of my friends had them as well, and we used to climb the tree (they were that big) and sit (inside) the tree and eat mulberries until our faces and shirts were stained.
It's to the point where another incubator is definitely in the plans!
I immediately checked... I was already subscribed and had run the bell for Two Turtles Homestead!
Thank you!
Blackberry and raspberry’s cross pollinated need to be 100 feet apart far them. Love your channel
We can buy sun berries here in Scotland which are apparently a hybrid of blackberries and raspberries.
Start some muscdines, I grew up in the chattanooga area and they grew well. You make jams, jelly, pots and wine with them. Checkout kinfolk farm of ga he has a whole Playlist on how to.
Pies😂 not pots
The metal you find can be scrapped.
Congrats on Lenny's and you receiving the breast chicken eggs! How's your mom and Nana Janna doing?
Thank you! Mom is in the next video!
Hi Sean!
Hello Dawn!
I'm sure somebody already said something, but those are stinkhorn fungi
take a photo, upload it to google image search, it will usually tell you what the specimen is.
Berries!!!
Hope you get more turkeys!
Look up stink horn mushroom.
👍
Did you forget to wear goggles for eye protection 😮
I was wearing clear ones for most of the brush clearing, but they weren't on the whole time.
🇦🇺There’s apps that you can download to find out what the plant is, it will tell you if it’s edible or toxic to humans and animals.
Driving 40 minutes is subjective. When my kids were small we would drive 3 hours for coffee and ice cream. 4 kids under 6. Now I drive 70 minutes to Church.
Do you have a wood chipper as you could make great compost.
45 minutes is how long it takes me on the bus to our nearest town and shopping centre. 40 minutes by car.
Will Henry be able to pick the black berries? Do they have thorns?
The wild ones are thorned, but we plan on getting thornless ones as well.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
you should have had a hard hat and goggles on for that job hugsssss
Fungi is correct.
Stink horn mushrooms
Yes, cut all that down. Cut it all down and then you can create something else.
They are a fungus.
🤔 When you get rid of the brush, you have a " great view" to the Kompost pile. Do you really want this?
Most of it is blocked by the pallets I put up. But either way I do think it could use some sun.
Red stink horn in your shady boggy soil....fungus feeding on organic material in soil.....not dangerous...just smelly
