I like Joey low key introverted personality. He the type of guy who doesn't speak much but when he does ppl listen as something profound. It does help that he is pretty good looking guy with nice cheekbone. Each of them have so. Difference personality yet, each work together. A lesson that been different is never deterrence to create something great. That ppl can work together.
You guys need to be scooping those wood chips with your pitchfork. Makes the job much easier! Love watching your videos, as we are doing some of the same things to our 27 acre farm we bought in Central VA a couple years ago!
Yei!!! Loved seeing Joey and I can't hold my laughter with Summer's voice when she voiceovers animals, XD. Hope your mushrooms grow strong and plenty. Hugs
Try leaning the wheelbarrow slightly on its side so that it's resting against the woodchip mound and then scoop them down into it with the pitchfork. If you have a lot of woodchips to move, it's a lot faster and a lot less work than using a shovel. I love your channel by the way. I just discovered it recently and it's because of you that I learned about all of the invasive species taking over New York. The wooded portion of our yard is full of garlic mustard, multiflora rose, bush honeysuckle, and japanese barberry. It's such an overwhelming process removing it all. But I'm sure it'll be rewarding in the end.
Great recommendation on the 'barrow. And we are always going to be battling with those invasives. We're lucky we don't have Japanese stiltgrass, Japanese knotweed, or the Jumping worms yet!
I highly recommend using that big fork you were poking the cardboard with to shovel the woodchips; so much more efficient in my experience than a shovel! ☺️
Yes! Thanks for the tips. We started doing that after many folks recommended. SO MUCH EASIER! But now my shoulder muscles will suffer. More reps! ;) - SRO
Update from FFL in the comments section of Ep 82: "We lost track of our Stropharia-meaning we didn't check on them, but when we did, they weren't there. We'll try digging up the wood chips this spring and see if we can see any mycellium. If so, we may bring some out to the front garden bed to keep better track of them!"
I knew it. Joey will be wonderful addition to the flock, he is great host and his sense of humor surprisingly turned this flock even more fun to watch 😂😂😂😂🤘🏽! Lookin forward to those mushrooms to be ready to harvest
Watching you three working together, it occured to me you are making some really wonderful memories you all will enjoy in the years to come. Keep up the good work, really enjoy watching all you are doing! Also love learning so many new ways and things through these videos.
It's the experiences that will really matter in the end. And love creating this little video montage that we can look back on 10, 20, 30 or more years from now. Thanks for writing in.
My wife and I live in Ithaca and are engaging in a similar journey. We bought 7 acres and are planning (and eventually building) a regenerative homestead. Hoping to plant a perennial food forest that nourishes our community long after we're gone.
@@FlockFingerLakes Yes, we're very excited to find that all of our immediate neighbors are looking to engage in some Eco-Poetry as well! Someday we'll be a whole neighborhood of permaculitists
I am a novice but the reason you put down the cardboard is to suppress the grass and weeds. This means that there should not be any openings or gaps in the cardboard it has to be overlapped. The worms will take care of the cardboard and they will turn the cardboard into compost. You should lay at least 4 to 6 inches of wood chips on the cardboard. I have personally gone through this but as I said I am a novice just my 2 cents. Happy gardening
winecap mushrooms are so easy. if you have property grow them! even throw some wood chips in an old laundry basket and throw that next to the house if you dont have the land. . very easy mushroom to grow and they come back each year
Oh guys i cant wait for your video on the big rose nursery!!!! Leon has an AWESOME! garden and nursey for roses....im excited already.....i ask Leon if he had heard about you since you are doing the Finger Lakes project. He said you 2 had been there about a week ago filming...he is the nicest guy and knows his roses back to front and front to back...i wish i lived closer...but he told me of a nursery a bit like his south of Cleveland..and Toldeo is not that far so i see a trip in my next Spring forcast...lol
OMG, editing it now and it's SO delightful. If you are a rose junkie (or even if you're not a rose junkie), you'll fall head over heels in love. (And I'm saying that and I was not really into roses at all). - SRO
70% hardwood wood chips or better for Wine caps. Wine caps are great composters and tasty too. Once you have them, cultivate new beds with the stem butts[1 stem butt every 6" in wood chips} and you can keep it going. Thanks for posting
Mushrooms are definitely growing in popularity 😁 Or maybe I’m just saying that living in the Mushroom State of Pennsylvania 😅 My coworker’s son supplies us with lion’s mane, shiitake, chestnut, & king oyster mushrooms. I still want to grow some of our own after watching this!
Love watching these practical projects on the land ~ really instructive. The Wine Caps look delicious (and pretty)...yum! I lightly saute mushrooms in a little oil, then add a a dash of low-salt soy sauce which seems to accentuate the individual flavours.
I must confess that I’m reticent to grow mushroom and end up harvesting wild poisonous ones instead. I know, it’s irrational. You made it seem more feasible.
Just wanted to say I found your Flock Channel through Plant One on Me as I am a semi new houseplant hobbyist and now I love watching Flock! I learn so much from you and one day hope to have A great outdoor space to umpliment my new knowledge. You guys rock!!
I’ve grown stropharia mushrooms in the past and they are wonderful! They tend to have a large harvest all at once and I really recommend drying the extra. The texture I think is improved after drying and it’s a perfect way to preserve them.
This is exactly what I planted a couple weeks ago with wood chips and straw - from Northspore in ME. I'm mulching the bed and covering with a tarp before it freezes. Please come back and show how things progress!
Summer dropping f-bombs while pulling out the honeysuckle actually made me like her. 😂 As someone who swears like a drunk sailor with syphillis, I appreciate other adults (appropriately) being their true selves. 😅
Love this video ! Joey is such a great addition to the content! As if I didn’t have enough reasons to love these videos❤️ living vicariously through you beautiful folks from my small apartment in Glasgow! Thanks for sharing ❤️🙏❤️🪱❤️🐸
This will be a nice adventure, to watch them grow. As you said people are leery of mushrooms, not being educated on the different types of mushrooms and their potential to do harm is a little off putting. There are quite a few mushroom hunters in Michigan, morels are their “game”. I’ve never had a morel but looking forward to trying them next spring. My daughters fiancé is a morel hunter and unfortunately my husband and myself were out of state when they were in season this year. I hope Joey has a bumper crop of mushrooms this fall and I’m sure they will be delicious, home grown is always the best!💚🙃
I understand why morels are their game. They are delish! I remember finding a feast of mushrooms up in British Columbia on top of a mountain on the alpine - arctic border with Wade Davis and friends. We took home about 3 dozen and sauteed them in butter and garlic. Way too good! Happy hunting! - SRO
Absolutely loved this video. Good job showing more of Joey. You guys may want to explore easier ways to do things - say the wheelbarrow could be loaded more easily rather than shoveling? Please put a mic on our dear Sander :) Love
I just love the new place. Just a suggestion I moved a lot of wood chip mulch at my place. I use a tool I guess pitch fork with lots of tines on it so much easier than a shovel. Its quicker also. Much success On your new place!! God Bless you all from this yankee girl that lives in Florida now!
Yes thank you. Lots of folks gave us that tip and it works wonders! Also got a really big, lightweight special fork after the suggestions. Can't recall what it was called but it's orange and kinda funky looking.
That was cool. Joey getting hands on and hands in and Sander still enjoying his toy. Does he let anyone else drive it? I’ve been thinking about what to do with areas of my yard. Perhaps mushrooms? Thanks for the info.
Hello, hello! I just discovered your channel and am watching from the beginning. I love what you're doing. Can hardly wait to see what's next. As for mushrooms, you may be interested to check out the Greg Judy YT channel. He grows shiitakes as a side business. His main thing is cattle and sheep ranching (along with sustainable agriculture and soil health) but every once in a while he'll post a video devoted to his mushroom operation. He's very informative and also very supportive of up-and-coming farmers and land stewards. All the best to you!
This is not an advertisement for this product, but go buy a LEONARD 8-TINE POLY MULCHING FORK WITH D-GRIP HANDLE and your mulching will go way faster, with less work on your end. Great vid thanks!
OOOOooo that's exciting. We've struck up a relationship with Lowe's now and they set it aside for us regularly, so we've been pretty good thus far but if we run out we may hit you up! May be the #1 resource we're using now!
@@FlockFingerLakes I'm literally 5 miles from you guys and grew up in this area. I love seeing your progress in such a short time. keep up the good work
Lifes not been fun lately, 5 months had very little, gave up my bed and everything. Was hanging tough, life is balancing out for me now though. I think the world has gone mad and i think we are seeing the rise of heros. Ive seen real brave men coming forward and there is no telling what people can do. You just need good speakers. Maintain your connection to source, know it is always there, to help lift your vibration. You just have to let go of the monkey mind.
So do you have to re-inocoulate the pile or just till in some of the mushrooms at a certain time of year? Do you plan on doing more varieties if these do well?
You shouldn't have to inoculate again if you keep on feeding them wood chips. But we'll definitely have more mushrooms in our future. Joey is hellbent on it.
Doubt the deer will hit up the shrooms. More likely it'll be slugs. And we're applying for a grant for the deer fence, so if we get that, we're hoping to have it up and working before the fall. (Fingers crossed)
I love mushroom! But, the place i stay is semi arid where growing mushroom is difficult without controlled environment. What type of snake it is? Hope that is not poisonous!!😱
I think it was one of our many different versions of garter snakes. Non-venomous. You have to watch out for the ones with triangle heads or rattles on their tails!
So are you gonna be able to eat these mushrooms? Don’t get me wrong I understand all of the dynamics of having mushroom mycelium in your garden and on your wood chips for in your garden. But are you going to be able to eat the mushrooms also?
also, I have no clue about mushrooms, but I would love to learn more, and I follow the north something guy, which I believe you mentioned as a guy you got your mycelium from.. honestly, I follow him in order to learn something and I not only can't explain what mycelium is, I can't even remember his channel name #facepalm. I now rewinded a video, and now I know why I can't remember what mycelium is, it's cause explanation says it's "vegetative part" of the fungus, which to me is a plant related term, and I honestly don't know what they mean when they use it in terms of a plant, isn't entire plant vegetative... anyway, he's very particular about everything being sterile in his videos, and you're just going to dump this mycelium on dirty cardboard and woodchips leave it at that. is cleanliness only important in certain stages of development, or is he overdoing it, or are you simply not concerned about contamination cause you're not doing this for business, but for your own use? also, after cardboard disintegrates, and shrooms fruit, and you harvest them, will they regrow again next season, or will you have to re-saw them again? wouldn't the wood chips suffocate any grasses growing there anyway, is cardboard really that necessary? surely shrooms growing in nature don't have a problem with grass growing around them
"Vegetative" simply means the part of the fungus that grows like a plant (mycelium are akin to the roots) and will often mean that it's not used in reproduction. So spores are the reproductive part of a fungus, like the seed is to most plants. When we talk about the "vegetative" parts of plants, we mean the "non-reproductive parts". So taking a "vegetative cutting" means taking a cutting of the mother plant that will be a clone of the same plant. As far as contamination: we're growing this outdoors in an uncontrolled environment. You're going to naturally get other spores and things growing in there. If you want to go for purity, you'd need to grow indoors in a very, very controlled environment. And as we'll find out in a future episode: your mushrooms will both taste different and be of a vastly different quality.
@@FlockFingerLakes so, would it be safe to say that vegetative part is the one that can be used for preproduction, as long as it's not sexual, so cloning or tissue culture, but if it participates in sexual reproduction, like flowers and seeds, then they are none-vegetative?
I like that Joey is a story teller and is breaking it down for us.
In my native language mushrooms roughly translate to frog's umbrellas so this is a sign!
What a good name for them!
I know…..my mom didn’t let me eat mushrooms in my early childhood for that reason 🤣🤣🤣
Great name for them!
Hi Farmers and Farmher! Great friendships when you surprise a friend with Nature in the form of mushrooms. Welcome back to Joey! You Flockers!! lol

Can Sander have a mic? Have some trouble understanding him😅 and he asks some good questions so... Maybe?
We'll recommend he has one!
Joey's definitely a city guy but you can tell he's loving the country life and is keen to learn.
haha. He grew up in the country in Canada so it's still in his veins. That and maple syrup. :)
@@FlockFingerLakes oh 😂 my apologies. I grew up in town but love the country.
joey is total weirdo and i can relate to him doing my rural work all dressed up feeling a little off. very cute, though

Great video. Loved seeing Joey and his dry humor. Seeing how simple it is to grow mushrooms I think I will try some 🍄
It's shocking how easy it really is. And as long as you keep adding some wood chips and rain-they'll always produce.
I see a life’s work unfolding
Absolutely! This is our life's work. But just the beginning. - SRO
Using a pitch fork to move your chips is dramatically more efficient😊. Some fork's tines are closer together specifically for such use.😊
I knew it. Joey will be wonderful addition to the flock, he is great host and his sense of humor surprisingly turned this flock even more fun to watch 😂😂😂😂🤘🏽! Lookin forward to those mushrooms to be ready to harvest

Wonderful tips and we will try drying when we get our harvest! Thanks for the recommendation.
Last couple of years we've done the log inoculations. Alot of work but definitely worth it. This year we went this way also. Fingers crossed!
This is exactly what I planted a couple weeks ago with wood chips and straw - from Northspore in ME. I'm mulching the bed and covering with a tarp before it freezes. Please come back and show how things progress!
Question does nature cover anything with a tarp. Just asking not being rude but nature has a way of taking care of itself. The mulching is enough.
Use that pitchfork for shoveling wood chips. You'll be surprised.
Very informative, mushrooms are on my To-Do list for the garden.
I'm loving your videos so much! Summer just grabbed that snake. I saw a snake on my porch and I think my heart stopped. I was so scared! Summer rock!
hahah. No fear. - SRO
Joey steppin up. Sandar, Joey and Summer in the same Vid, Fuckin Love!
Wishing you a great frog umbrella harvest. Am anxious to see how you preserve thousands of them. Get ready!
HeyYYYYYYY!!!! Joey, what that brilliant noggin of hers!!!!🤯🤯 Great job guys!!!!!!
Thank you for your bravery, I wish I could do what you guys are doing. Keep going, please and thank you.
Would love an update on this! So interested!
This is interesting. I look forward to an update video in the fall to show the grown mushrooms.

Welcome! And thanks for writing in and letting us know you're enjoying these.
I saw your old mushroom video and have been trying to grow mushrooms in my garden. I inoculated some logs a few months ago
Thanks for sharing ☺️
Hi is there an update video for this? I’ve looked but haven’t been able to locate one. Thanks!
This will be a nice adventure, to watch them grow. As you said people are leery of mushrooms, not being educated on the different types of mushrooms and their potential to do harm is a little off putting. There are quite a few mushroom hunters in Michigan, morels are their “game”. I’ve never had a morel but looking forward to trying them next spring.

I understand why morels are their game. They are delish! I remember finding a feast of mushrooms up in British Columbia on top of a mountain on the alpine - arctic border with Wade Davis and friends. We took home about 3 dozen and sauteed them in butter and garlic. Way too good! Happy hunting! - SRO

We will definitely mic Sander next time!
Would you do an update on things you planted and how they are looking now. Like the mushrooms and the little tree plugs I saw in a different video.
I just love the new place.
Just a suggestion I moved a lot of wood chip mulch
at my place. I use a tool
I guess pitch fork with lots of tines on it so much easier than a shovel. Its quicker also. Much success
On your new place!! God Bless you all from this yankee girl that lives in Florida now!
Yes thank you. Lots of folks gave us that tip and it works wonders! Also got a really big, lightweight special fork after the suggestions. Can't recall what it was called but it's orange and kinda funky looking.
Is there an update on if the mycelium colonized the wood chips or not?
Love this 🥰 excited for the harvest

What a great project! I’d love to try this....😎
Easy to do! You can even do in between your garden bed.
Do you have any feedback after one year? I would love to see how it is now...
thank you for this great videos!
Great Amazon box advert!
And we ran out of cardboard to the point that we are now asking Lowe's to set aside it for us!
"Name more iconic trio than the Gryffindor trio."
This. This is more iconic.
hahaha. The older versions.
You need manure forks to move the wood chips. Much easier than shovels or pitch forks.
Damn right we do! We ordered some after. We're so low on the tools here. Every time we do something we're like, "Damn, wish we had THIS tool..."
Love the shrooms, can't wait to watch you taste test😄

Always a safe bet until you consult a mycologist!

"Vegetative" simply means the part of the fungus that grows like a plant (mycelium are akin to the roots) and will often mean that it's not used in reproduction. So spores are the reproductive part of a fungus, like the seed is to most plants. When we talk about the "vegetative" parts of plants, we mean the "non-reproductive parts". So taking a "vegetative cutting" means taking a cutting of the mother plant that will be a clone of the same plant. As far as contamination: we're growing this outdoors in an uncontrolled environment. You're going to naturally get other spores and things growing in there. If you want to go for purity, you'd need to grow indoors in a very, very controlled environment. And as we'll find out in a future episode: your mushrooms will both taste different and be of a vastly different quality.
@@FlockFingerLakes so, would it be safe to say that vegetative part is the one that can be used for preproduction, as long as it's not sexual, so cloning or tissue culture, but if it participates in sexual reproduction, like flowers and seeds, then they are none-vegetative?
So when’s the wedding?
