- Walking in the Garden on how we grow lots of food tomatoes, zucchini, squash, onions, garlic chives, mint, herbs, kale, dazzling blue kale, Swiss chard, greens, parsley, celery and Yorkies at 31:18, and we share with the birds for almost a bug insect free garden. Yorkies (Yorkshire terriers) Dogs at 31:18 "Who Pooped???" Solar fountains, Easy gardening, where the edible plants grow for years, low maintenance but always growing some sort of foods in the garden in the ground and in containers, even growing a on chair as a raised bed no bend garden.
I am 72 yrs.old & I watched Romper Room & when people do live videos & are saying "Hi so & so" it reminds me of Romper Room. Thanks for the walk through. It is all amazing.😀💥👍
Robbie, I so enjoyed have coffee with you as we walked, talked and sat in Gary's and your gardens. Your refreshing. 😊🌱🌻☕🐦🦜🐝🐞🦋🌷
I try to do this about once a month or so, to step a bit away from gardening only and show more of nature and the animals, thanks so very much, Love, Robbie
Mrs. Robbie..... Every one that watches your channel is very interested!!!! We love you and Mr. Gary for all of the wonderful ideas you have and all of the great advice that you two give. My family loves watching PBS. We watch everyday. So we will be looking out for that episode. Thank you and keep being you!!!!
Wow, you are amazing, that is SO nice of you, thank you so very much, Love, Robbie
So I enjoy listening to your videos in the background while I'm working and I hear "WHO POOPED DOWNSTAIRS?!?" at 31:18 🤣 bless you
It was so funny that I had my camera in hand that day, and Mollie raised her paw to let me know it was HER, and Penny, tapped Mollie so I would know for sure who did it....oh what fun, thanks, Robbie
I love what you said about being gluten free. I have Multiple Sclerosis. None of my doctors have ever talked about diet helping. I recently found RUclips videos with Dr. Terry Wahl who herself has MS and researched diet for helping people with autoimmune diseases. No processed foods. No sugar or gluten. Nine cups or more of dark green leafy vegetables, sulfur veggies like cabbage and onions and colored veggies like beets and carrots. And spices like turmeric and ginger. So I am starting a new way of eating and trying to grow some of my own food. Haven't done so well yet but now I am watching your methods. I live in Michigan so can only grow in the summer and fall but if I can grow enough to freeze some I could do it. Organic food is too expensive for me. Finances are especially tight. I live alone. But I have a bit of land and I think I will try your methods. Thank you so very much for your help. I also have birds. Hummingbirds, Baltimore Orioles, robins, cardinals, chicadees,red wing black birds and so many others. And I too have my coffee outside on the deck and enjoy them. I can't believe I found your channel. Makes me feel so hopeful. Thank you.
Bobbie, this was the best video I’ve seen of yours. I get so hooked on your videos for hours. Both of your gardens are beautiful, so natural looking. You’re the best teacher of nature. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Congrats on doing a tv show!
And, i love the way your garden looks. I like the wild look, too! It's more like nature.
Thanks so much, it was fun, take care, Robbie
I agree Robby. I love the au' natural look also. Im also big on letting natural plants grow that others consider weeds. Heck if a person doesnt grow daisys then a daisy is a weed to them. It feeds the native animals. I have a few humming birds. Since moving here 4 yrs ago we have gone from no birds to many. I have verdin, cactus wrens, crow, black birds, house sparrows, house finches and have even had a small owl.
I also get saguaro lizards. They lay eggs every year in the dens under my garden. :)
Absolutely loved this tour, watching in cold Liverpool uk , March 25 2023 ,
Getting lots of tips and great ideas , thank you so much 🙏❤️
Good morning Robbie🌹l will watch after work! Thank you for sharing! Love your videos!
Thanks!!! Robbie
please let us know when is the show start?
@@emptynestlife1889 I sure will, looks like the show will be in October, but will I will keep you posted, thanks again, Robbie
Oh Robbie this was so enjoyable!! Thank you for all the time invested in sharing your world!! I prefer a forest looking garden than an organized garden myself 😀
My zucchini and tomatoes here in Ontario Canada are growing so well thanks to you! I use your bird seed recommended mix and get a yard full of different birds. . The occasional black bears too!! ( gorgeous animals). Yes I remember Romper Room!!! 🍃⚘🍃
Yes, Romper Room was a franchised show, so each local area could produce their own version, so it was different all over North American, what fun you had it too. SO happy to hear you can grow zucchini and tomatoes with ease, and yes the birds really do love those seeds the best, and less waste too. Bears, cool, they here are up higher in the mountains, so none at our place. THANK YOU so much!!! Take care, Robbie
It's a lot of fun watching your videos while learning a lot from you & Gary's gardening ideas . Thank you much !
Gary's garden is beautiful!
Robbie, that is so cool about the TV show! Thankyou so much for taking time to video , and sharing so many great garden ides! I love your channel!!!🥰
Everyone's a critic! you are fabulous and I envy your garden!! thanks for all you do!
Love the nature walk. I agree, swarming looks emminent - have Gary get his next box ready 🐝
He is still working on the new box....but he hopes they move into that barbecue he fixed up there for now, Thanks, Robbie
watching as you walk around is giveing me ideal ... what I wont to do around my place... thanks Robbie
Congrats on the tour!! I also love dragonflies, no mosquito problems.
I love your videos. They are wonderfully fun, and you are a very enthusiastic happy gardener and bird lover. I love to garden, and I just bought a Hummingbird feeder when I saw I actually have some hummingbirds around. I was always told not to feed them because they would become dependent on the food and if you quit, they would die. It's nice to know that they have other foods and sources to go to, and that I am only supplementing their diet. As to your "wild" garden, I call my gardening style "organized chaos," so I get it! I am encouraged to go back to growing my own veggies, after watching your videos. I had given up for quite some time, because of time and because my garden soil wore out. You teach that composting is easy and affordable, and I have plenty of leaves, and shredded paper to work with. I can't wait to make a couple of solar fountains as well. Keep the videos coming, and Thank you!
You are such a wonderful friend to the birds 🐦 💕. I think I'm gonna fix up my back yard for birds 🐦. Love seeing birds 🐦 they are so beautiful .
So beautiful and peace filled. Thanks for taking us around.
🩷
Wonderful for you, Gary, and the gardens to be on that show!
I have alot of sparrows that love my bird bath.
Pigeons are all in my yard and eat everything. Cardinals and blue Jays and black birds all sorts of birds and rabbits eat at my house. I love them all. Ooh and squirrels to. It is a therapy for me I guess 😂 brings me joy taking care of them and the cats lol 😂.
So fun, I have always been an animal lover too, and I can just image how you love all that going on, take care, Robbie
I remember watching Romper Room!! LOL! Thanks for the video!
You are so welcome, thanks, Robbie
bird Britannica love it I watch you for hours some times I am cooking so I turn up the volume all good stuff god bless
Robbie I just subscribed to yo about a month ago. I must say I enjoy your videos more than daytime TV! You need your own show. Your bubbly personality is contagious 🤗
You both have beautiful gardens. Thanks for sharing
finally made it through all your humming bird and solar fountain videos and now checking out these garden videos.
great tour of all the gardens 👍
Shared your bird videos with my parents so you have more eyes checking out your channel.
Love your channel I live in North Carolina can't grow to much all year long but I love watching your garden tour. I love humming birds. And feeding animals.
Same here . I’m watching her garden tour in awe , wishing I had the wonderful climate zone that California has . Couldn’t imagine not having to worry about the frost . 🤷🏼♀️But I guess that’s what they make greenhouses for 😎
Hello~I'm fairly new to your channel an absolutely adore it !!
Thanks so much for sharing about the show coming up..how special. I am enjoying this video so much with you talking about your Garden, the birds, water features and showing off so many teriffic plants. Your husband's Garden is amazing also..Both are actually very beautiful. When you were showing your Collards, I wish I could have put mine here for you to see. It's a volunteer one probably from birds. So lovely an about 7ft long , cause it's so heavy can't stay up ! Thanks again for this great Video. I'm in Georgia. ✌❣👍
Blessings abound..PJ
Collard plants are amazing, and yours sound extra Special....so many pull them out when they start to grow big; I love leaving them, even the regular collard plants grow so big, they will grow for so many years with weather permitting, thanks so very much for sharing and thank you, Robbie
LOVE THE WAY YOU GOT YOUR GARDEN
OMG I love a wild garden 👍😃
"How drunk was he..." Well ok sir! Lol green is legal there so I think that makes you more creative! 😂
Robbie--Gray, repeat repeat and repeat. You just had todo it didn’t you. All I wanted was to was listen to the birds while I spun yarn. Now? NOW? I just bought my first bird bath. Big one. With another and pedestal. And ya it plugs in too. I am so glad you have inexpensive ways to make your own. If I could send you pics I would.
Also agree with your thoughts on pests. I plant enough to share. The hawk moth catapillar loves night shade plants. So i plant enough to share my plants. The hawk moth is endangered.
The way you told that adorable story about your daughter and the show she appeared in prematurely, i pictured the whole thing in front of my eyes. For a moment it was as if i was watching it on screen, magical! Lovely picture of your Daughter!(That hair...)
Maybe I should tell my stories (that no one wants to hear 😃) That hair was hard to take care of, and she still has long red hair, thanks, Robbie
I LOVE HUMING BIRD
Your garden is absolutely amazing! It is most definitely something I strive to have!
Hi. I'm new to your channel and thoroughly enjoyed this nature walk with you. You have a lovely place. I do remember Romper Room great little show.Thsnk you again
That show was a round for years, so big in Los Angeles, Mary Ann King, who peered through her “Magic Mirror” to host the children's TV show “Romper Room” in Los Angeles, again, thank you Robbie
Your little girl was a riot - the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree ! Suspect you were as well !😊
Every single vidio you have educated me unbelievably and I thank you so much ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much 😊❤️
Congratulations on doing a TV show that's so Kool, luv all your videos. I think it's great that you and your husband both are into gardening, I must say your very lucky , my man could care less lol, it's great when you both can share the same passion. I'm gonna try to do like you and start bringing in birds too I have parrots and my own aviary outside would love to have all the wild birds as you do. Ty for your solar fountain fix video I bought 1 last yr for my bird aviary and it stopped working now I can fix it thanks to you 😊 it amazes me 1 how you can remember all your plants and 2 all the different birds. I would like to learn more how Gary does things too, I don't see many videos by him, hope he does more luv all the things he builds would like to see how he setup the pool and fish and what plants and the way he creates things as you do. Thanks for your video have a blessed day
How on earth can somebody give you a thumbs down? They must have no soul : ) Another wonderful video Robbie, I have a wild garden too and I love it. The birds are amazing and you have so much more wildlife too....don't forget, throw a party and support wild life : ) Thanks Robbie for sharing your lovely gardens....it's nearly 2.00am I think I'd better head off to my bed.
I love these walk throughs
I remember the Romper Room T.V. show! Awesome video as always!!!!
I love your channel and I always learn something new. I don't have the huge space you do so I use pots for most of my plants. This year I got hit with lots of aphids and spider mites. I have sprayed and sprayed to no avail and they come back.
Love your videos! Can you please do a video of how you make your green tea and zucchini pancakes! I also quit eating wheat and feel so much better! I also love your idea of composting in place because composting always seem too hard to do on a bigger scale but you showed us we can do it on a smaller scale! Thanks so much for sharing your garden with us!
I love watching your site...so good..
So excited....
Romper stomper bomper boo, tell me, tell me, tell me do.
I remember. Hahaha. :)
Love how you introduced your video saying Climate Zone 10! Best climate zone!
I'm in 9B.
Where did you get that cute fountain?
I imagine you bought it sometime ago but I love it.
Almost all the fountains are made here by me, but the 2 larger ones I found both at a thrift store. I have a video up as to what fountains are best for birds, not all are created equal, you will need edges for birds to land and shallow parts for them to bath in. But I think I need to get newer ones up soon, THANKS SO MUCH, Robbie
Beautiful! All lush and verdant! You both know what you're doing. :) Grateful for all that you do - sharing your experiences and great information so we can be successful gardeners and birders too. God bless you, dear Robbie.
Really it is easy to garden, so many make it sound hard, once you have the interest, it is easy, and I lean more towards nature, that really makes it easy, thank so very much, Robbie
@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy Yes, that's true. I was kind of afraid of trying - until your videos. :) You made it look fun and easy, so I gave it a try and discovered you're right! Really grateful, Robbie.
Love your videos and thank you for sharing with us.
Oh my goodness! Those spice finches are gorgeous!! I used to work at the Buffalo Zoo and had to take care of all the Bears drafts and infirmary animals. One time we got in a bunch of different colorful finches from One time we got in a bunch of different colorful finches from the Canadian border that a woman was trying to smuggle in. There were bright red ones with black spots, baby blue ones with brown wings and a few others! I'd love to see those my yard
I LOVE ALL THE INFORMATION ABOUT SOLAR FOUNTAINS, I AM TRYING TO MAKE ONE
You have wonderful piece of property 🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰
omg love love love it we must be related---but I'm from scotland ---just found your channel because of the humingbirds
Just loved this walk with you. I'm kinda hooked on your videos. Lots of fun with the hummingbirds and learning alot. Wish I lived closer I'd be picking a collard green leaf and picking your brain too 😅 You are very informative. I appreciate all the information you give.
Your saying at every end.
Eat what you grow.
Thanks DeeDee
Discovered your channel about a month ago and yesterday I received 2 of the solar water pumps for my little friends just in time for 2 days of clouds and rain! I know it's late in the season for 6b but I'm so anxious to see if they will use it. Do you think temps in the 70's is too cold for them to bathe or will I have to wait til next year to enjoy that scene? Thanks for the inspiration!
As long as you have birds, they still drink and bathe all year, birds like to keep clean, no matter the weather, thanks, Robbie
We have in my part of Wisconsin yellow finches and purple ones..
Oh Wow how beautiful! Thanks for sharing that, take care, Robbie
@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy ❤🦋
Hi from Melbourne Australia x
Just found your site, 17th Feb 2021. So fascinating , thank you. Can't wait to watch your video on making solar panels....
Good afternoon Robbie great video
Hi Craft Queen! A very good afternoon to you too, as always!!! Thanks so very much, Love, Robbie
I took a picture I wanted to show you, but I don’t think I can. Your videos have inspired us so much we bought a hummingbird feeder today. We live in rural Oregon literally on McKenzie HWy. so we bought a 3 dollar stake with a hook that is about 4 feet tall, so the hummingbird feeder is not far from the ground. The reason we did this, is because I would be gardening, and they would randomly fly around my head and it sounded like a helicopter!!!!! Will they come if the bird feeder is close to the ground? Thank you, we love ❤️ your channel.
I always wonder that too
I used to strain the mint particles out of my mint tea but I noticed an “ultra blend” feature on my blender so now we drink every thing - more fiber & vitamins now!!
funny I use tennis balls on the top of my poles, great idea god bless
Ha, ha, just started making my compost containers in my fall raised beds. Found a black spider in my dirt. Do we just deal or rid it? Love the composting method. Two big barrels, a small florists container in my upright and three more containers getting ready for later. Thank you.....
I love it all.
Wow, that's amazing. We have starlings here. I know for certain they will lay in cardinal nests because I saw one being fed. This year I found an egg on my front step made of concrete. It had rained the night before and was much cooler so I was certain it wasn't viable. I have no idea how it got there and there was no sign of a nest anywhere.
@27:22 what kind of squirrel is that?
On that egg, either a bird just laid it, or another bird took it out of a nest and dropped it, eggs do get carried and moved around by other animals. So cool on the starlings!!! Love it!!! That was a ground squirrel, and what was odd is that it climbed up that bush, and normally the really do not climb, but he was determine to eat part of that tobacco plant, maybe he is addicted to that plant? Thanks so much, Robbie
You all good!!!
🇬🇧 I'm in lockdown but I'm going to ask one of my shopping family to get me a papaya and a pomegranate and I'll see if I can propagate them. I don't expect them to live outside during UK winter but it will be fun to try. And I can maybe keep them in my
greenhouse when it turns cold. My soil didn't like garlic chives but I have got wild garlic.
Hi😁Can you share more about the green drink? I have arthritis really bad and anything that could help would be awesome! Thank you! 🥰
Boy do I love your videos! I live in hot hot Redding, Feeding humming birds, morning doves and scrub jays. Would like to give them a bath but water gets so hot, any ideas?
Set something up with shade, they will love it, keep it well opened so they can move freely and not feel like a trap, but some sort of shade until the weather cools, thanks, Robbie
What is your recipe for your Green Drink please. And thank you for your very beautiful videos. Very relaxing. Would love to see more of Gary’s garden and the veggies and fruit you are growing.
I have that mug! 🥰
Cool!
Wow !!!! I realy enjoyed this video, I am a bird crazy too. we have a one acre property in Fallbrook, in San Diego north County we have different kinds of birds, stoping here tI feed and drink every season.
Blessings to you and Gary and thank you so much for sharing. ♡
Please let us know when your going to be on PBS so excited for you both!!!
I sure will, thank you and have a wonderful week, Robbie
I used to transfer honeybee larvae into honeycomb to create our queen bees a few years ago and when you move the larvae you can't flip them either or they die, interesting to know that about mosquitoes must be why they only lay in stagnant water.
A new toy for BOBBIE to play with and put her genius imagination toward that's also a good safety gadget to put on pokey stuff is those hard plastic practice golf balls - or "softballs", if it's a bigger stake or stick. They already have holes all over them so all you'd have to do is enlarge a hole that's already there! Pop it on the stake or stick or whatever and you're good to go. Although...I'm not sure what the birds might do...it's possible they could get it off the stick and take it to play with, I suppose. I use them indoors as I have wall hooks low on the wall and use them on those so I don't put an eye out bending over and stuff. But the hooks have little ball ends so I keep the holes in the balls just small enough so that they actually "snap" on. A bird probably wouldn't get that off. They're also called "wiffle balls". They're not soft but they're round rather than pokey. You could probably also use ping pong balls but I don't know how long they would last. The wiffle balls will just last and last. Plus, there must be a hundred fun other uses for them! Plus, they're CHEAP! And you can get them in rainbow colors!!
Ah Romper Room with Mary Ann, My son was also on Romper Room. Many times when they needed an extra quick Danny was able to be on. He won first place on drawing a picture for the LA Zoo. Many cakes and shows and many special memories we think of her often. Maybe our two children were on the same show. Been trying to find her but have not yet. They took off Romper Room for Seasame Street, claiming only whites kids was on the show, not her fault. We all signed up so it was open to all. Was not happy with Sesame Street for a long time....only to work with their PEP out reach program for many years. Who would of guessed! I live in a moblie home park and can not have large trees etc. Breaks my heart not to live nature as I use to. Going to try the hummingbird feeders. Any suggestion on a small garden for us in a park? New to the show and love it.
Hi robbi, could you show us how do you water your plants?
Wonderful video idea ! Just recently found this channel and I’m enamored 🥰
Hi Robbie! I love to watch all your videos they are all so interesting and educational. I love the way you compost in place and just plant any seeds from your pocket to grow anywhere in a mixed pot. I am doing the same now and find the plants are so happy.
Please could you say if your green drinks are made with coconut water?
Here in the NW UK. My greens are being devoured by slugs and snails after all the rain. I wish we got more dry sunny weather like you enjoy.
I love to watch your birds and water fountains. XX
I use lots of different greens collected around the garden, maybe one day I will test out my little hero camera to gather that up, I tried my camera glasses one day, but some people did not like the video, too shaky. I have not used coconut water, but that would be perfect and fine to use. As far as the snails...maybe TULLE netting, that can work for some, thanks so much, Robbie
Put the tulle on asap after planting BEFORE the slugs & snails & roly pollies crawl in & snap on tightly with clothes pins or metallic clips
Zone 6b here! I think!
I would love to be your next door neighbor!!
Mosquitoes don't lay eggs in running water. It is only the water that sits around and does not move like when people leave water in old tires or buckets.
How do you keep squirrels from eating out of the bowls, I put out a plate on a table and the squirrels took over.
I AGREE
Robbie can you show me how to grow Italian edible gourds ❓
How do you keep misquote, how do you control the mole, are fungus
You don't have a donation link to help? I would like to send a few dollars here & there for sugar/ food for the birds. I'm sure others would too.
I live in NY and the Hummingbirds leave in the Fall 😟Since you live in warm climate do they stay all year?
Yes
Your garden could do with some tiding.
Supposed to be a wild garden
would papayas grow in the east bay ????
Yes - I’m growing some in a warm, protected area next to the wall of the house ( west side)
