    I would love to know the number of people that you’ve inspired to get their hands in the dirt and work the land. Because it’s not just those who watch your videos, like me. I have 2 neighbors that have started planting in the landscape and food crops just by seeing the pleasure I get from doing those things. It’s wonderful what you and Aaron are doing, Laura. It’s snowballing and if there’s something that needs to snowball these days it’s definitely self sufficiency and working the earth.

    Oh my Laura, watching you garden, more than anything else, makes me wish I were young again and had the energy to follow some of your footsteps in the garden. I am 80 and can’t possibly do these projects now but watching you certainly makes me yearn for the youth it requires. Thank you for teaching our young and old how wonderful gardening can be. Watching you harvest those beans, peas, beets, and carrots was a treat. I look forward to each of your videos and am proud of you and Aaron for all you do.

    I'm happy that you guys decided to let the duck stay untill the ducklings hatch. Your garden is not just a place of beauty but also a safe haven for the birds. I can't wait to see your cut garden in full bloom! The fact that it's different every year is special as we never know what it will look like.
    The beets and carrots look so healthy. I bet you will harvest quite a bit of peas and beans from that one raised bed.

You explain very well, what your doing and why so the people who may not be as experienced as you are get a better understanding. Sharing your extensive knowledge is such a joy to listen to, something’s I know as my mum taught me how and why but there’s other things I had no idea about. I love this channel and can’t wait until my evening rolls around to just sit back, relax drink my coffee and enjoy another gardening experience with you both. Thankyou so much. 👏👌👍🥰🐓🏜🍓🌻🌶🌸🍅🌹🌺🌿🌱🌟

    It's filling up Wonderfully Laura! It'll be a Mass of Beauty in no time! Can I make a suggestion for you to try? The Celosia would be stunning in a "High Style" arrangement. I'm a retired floral designer and this style is so easy and striking. Use a low - shallow dish and keep the Celosia the focus by keeping it also low and centered. Add some broad leaves (ie Hosta) tightly at the base of the Celosia - then add height with twigs and pods like curly willow, To finish take a few long grass leaves and loop/tape into the different sized loops to add to the twigs for balance. Give it a try - I think you'll love it!!! Thank You, as always for lifting the spirits of Gardeners around the World!

    Laura - I am a new gardener in NC. This afternoon when I went out to check on my vegetable beds, I was so discouraged and wanted to cry. Really a grown woman all by herself sitting in the garden sweating and crying on the inside is not a good look. I know the problem is that I haven't solidified my watering strategy, because I do not have a faucet near the garden. That means I end up hauling water back and forth from the kitchen, which is a real struggle at my age. When I came in and clicked on your video and got to the end when you talked about your challenges with water this year, I realized that I am not alone. I deeply appreciate your sharing your struggles - aka learning opportunities - as well as your successes. It makes a difference for me and others like me, and it encourages us not to give up. Thank you.

    I almost gave up on my dream of growing cut flowers because of back pain until I watched this video. I wanted to grow flowers to donate to nursing homes and children’s hospitals in my area. Although all the snapdragons seeds I sowed have all bloomed in their large salad containers, I can still transplant dahlias, bells of ireland, amaranth and sunflowers. Thank you so much for giving me the nudge to be hopeful if not for a harvest, at least joy for my eyes this season. - Zee, N. Cali zone10a

  • @LB-vl3qn

    Those "weeds" in the orchard were actually quite lovely. That's what a meadow looks like, so I thought you had already put one in. Keep your eyes open for ducklings parading behind their mama to the nearest water source soon. And, cherish these cool days in the middle of May. Here in N Texas, we're approaching triple digits, that is, if we haven't already reached that point. Makes gardening a bit of a chore and I resent this early Summer. ~ Lisa

    So sweet to bring Krystal a bouquet...haven't seen any "ponytail" suggestions for when you plant...perhaps, finally we all know you are a straight hair gal! Keeps one's neck from burning too.

    Lol your enthusiasm is enough inspiration for me alone. I’ve finally found, hostas at my local nursery, and those beautiful hydrangeas that you grow the lime light etc. so excited to give ‘‘em a try! Thank you both for all of your advice, about everything you try and thank you also for your recommendations, and honest opinions. Cheers, keep up the good work, green on 😉

    I’m always amazed at what I pick up from your videos! We have hard water here in Phoenix Arizona - I just realized from your videos how much hard water marks I have on my plants from watering overhead. From now on, it’s watering under the leaves for me!
    Those beets and carrots 🥕 look scrumptious. I got some at the store and they were awful. I always get the bunches that still have the stalks on them - my cat loved munching on the green leaves. 😋
    Thanks for all the great info - enjoy your day!

    I don’t mind the sounds of the house being built, it’s life! And you have edited it in a way that calms and relaxes us. As I work in my garden I hear all sorts of things from the neighborhood. The close houses chirping birds, the barking dogs, kids laughing or screaming, fast cars and motorcycles revving up, the conversations and occasional fights among people … not gonna hide it weve all had an embarrassing argument with a person in the yard and not really noticed someone around until they’re peeking around the corner of their garage. We all share fences you know the suburban lifestyle l appreciate it knowing we’re all here on Earth trying to do our best. I enjoy the community and that we have eachothers backs and at other times I want to have a farm in the middle of no where when I can’t stand the certain little things like leaving a dog out all night or when the stray cats come to use our yard as a littler box. But in the scheme of it all we remember why were here. Spread some joy and savor the presence of the people and community you love most. I love your channel and what it brings to so many. Thank you 🙏

    Like Aaron, I am a grass and tree person, and though I know you guys are very busy, I am hopeful that you make a video specifically on doing the grass area around the South Garden, maybe on the Highlights channel? I'm very curious about the process since you have the dark brown mulch down already. I just can't wait to see the South Garden when all the grass is finally planted! It's one of those things that makes such a profound difference in the appearance of the full garden. I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait!😄 I was just curious why you didn't do it when you did the inner and outer circle? Is it harder to do large areas at a time? Was that just logistics and time? I'm learning so much and wonder if it's something you'll be doing this year? You guys are AWESOME! I'm enjoying all that I learn so, so much! Thank you for the joy and entertainment you bring whilst teaching us how to love our own gardens more and more! ~ Sun☀

    Hi Laura and Aaron! The orchard is so pretty! An idea I thought of watching Aaron mowing, wouldn't it be fun to have wildflowers grown tall with a mowed path/maze!! The kids would love it 🦋. Also FYI, you have a terrific following in Toronto, Ontario Canada!

  • @spych102

    I had 10 lily Pink Perfection bulbs that I planted in containers four years ago that decided to sleep in year three. This was a shame as it was a central plant for my patio in the summer and autumn.
    Then this April I counted about 60 stalks and now hundreds of flower buds, which should start to bloom in about 3-4 weeks. I will have to divide them in November and give the spare bulbs to friends.

    I found some seeds last year for corn that could be grown in a pot! But I did not know you needed to shake the stalks to get them to germinate? Thanks to my neighbor who would come and shake them every so often. I had 1 ear and it was WONDERFUL!!! Good luck with your corn.

    You guys should get a bunch of prairie dropseed plugs for the meadow area. I feel like that would work very well, and it's so pretty and soft, but also not super tall, so you could get in there and harvest when you need to.

    Laura - I know you’ve moved primarily from starting seedlings inside under grow lights to the outside heated greenhouse, but I would love for you to do a video or give some detail on starting seeds inside! After watching your channel for many years, this year was my first season to start seedlings under grow lights inside and I struggled with moisture (even with Gardener Supply’s self watering seed trays) and finding a good balance in temperature for all the dif types of seedlings after germination..I live in central Mississippi, zone 8. I know we live in a much different climate, 😁 but I’ve learned so incredibly much from you! Please let us tag along if you decide to start a few things inside next year ☺️

    @Maggie-Gardener-Maker 2 года назад +1

    Really beautiful beets and carrots, bravo! I do hope your corn pollinates, you may still have time to hand pollinate if this is recent video but I want to tell you that corn is wind pollinated, I reckon you are not aware that corn is not pollinated by pollinators because of what you said around 18:35 but corn is wind pollinated BUT it can be done by hand quite effectively by taking the tassel pollen (male part of plant) and placing that pollen on the silks (female part of plant) so that each silk strand is touched with pollen, it's a good idea to do several days in a row because there is only about a week window when the silks and tassels are ready at the same time. You may know that each one of the silk strands actually is attached to one corn kernel and so if each strand isn't pollinated then that kernel won't grow. The reason some corn ears have missing kernels on malformed ears is poor pollination of the silks. It is really as easy as taking a tassel with pollen and rubbing it on the silks but more technical descriptions can be found by doing a search on youtube; you will find many videos on how to hand pollinate corn, Baker Creek Seeds has a good video as does Seed Savers Exchange.

    Laura, you’ve mentioned that Benjamin likes to play under that willow tree. Have you considered putting the old water feature there and maybe adding a small seating area? It could be a mini garden for the kids while you work in and around the greenhouse. It’s also close enough to the house so whoever watches the kids while you and Aaron are busy can play with them there. Just an idea. 💗

I am going to be tackling this 'hide-and-seek' task this summer and would love to see what other people have done. 😁

    we use to have ducks that would nest every spring at our office, there was no body of water around this industrial area. we bought a baby pool for them and they would do their thing and then be on their way. If they like your area you may see them next year as well.
