At the end of the video I burst into tears. You went from cherishing their catalog and dreaming, to having their help to open your store. God is good my friend. I’m so happy for you.
Jess I am so sorry for the people who feel justified to judge how you spend your hard earned money. I have never in my life encountered such rude and emboldened behavior. I love your transparency and the fact that you open your life to a bunch of strangers! Some folks dine on a lot of sour grapes. I for one am so pleased with your success! You share hope which is desperately needed!
You’re now like the Joanna Gaines of Gardeners. I pray a multitude of blessings comes from this space and that you continue to be a light where ever you go!! Thank you for sharing with us your beautiful heart.
Having watched the Sowers family almost from the beginning of this RUclips journey, I'm sitting here bawling like a baby. So dang gratifying, forward-focused, and hopeful, which is exactly what I needed to see at this very moment in time. We serve an amazing and awesome God who keeps his promises. Thank you to the entire crew for all that you do.
Amen God is good, all the time. I needed to see this video too. I love seeing Jess and her husband accomplishing the dreams they’ve told us about. It validates the fact that god wants us to be fruitful. It’s so empowering. And this comment made me cry. I love this community. 😘 I have love for you all. God bless you.
Hi Jess, I’m from Northern Ireland ☘️ and I have followed R and R for years and I’ve watched you grow from a small seed to where you are now!! Just about to bloom, an exquisite rose I think, a rambling one that’s determined to ramble all over USA and in total belief the world.. I now have to start saving so I can come and join in, love 💕 to you, Mia and your beautiful kids
@@Silverstreamhomecrafts where r u from? I live near Peatland park between Dungannon and Portadown.. I really love these folks and I value their style of life/thinking
I totally get that. I also had some tears during this vlog. And some of the others as well. I love that I feel touched by some of the content that Jess and Miah share with us.
My husband and I were there for this. Thank you so much for opening up your home to all of us Jess. We left feeling so inspired. We bought Justin's book while we were there and I read the whole thing out loud to my husband on the drive home 😂 We were wondering what your salad dressing recipes are? Thank you again for everything you do ❤️
This is just pure beauty and joy. "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. - Eleanor Roosevelt" I am so very happy for you all your dreams are coming true you have been so faithful and patient. God has truly shined in your life. I pray he continues to bless you. Thanks for being such an inspiration to me. In my doubts I think of you and your passion. Love from The Goss Family
Jess and Miah, I cannot express how much I love everything you are doing on your new farm, you guy’s are amazing at what you have accomplished in such a short time. I’m 70 and learning so much from you, maybe one day I could volunteer on your beautiful farm.
So happy for y’all I could cry. We are about 2 months away from opening our butcher shop and I cannot wait to be apart of this insane food/education movement and teach people how to grow their own food.
This is incredibly exciting news. What a blessing such a store will be for the community. I hope that qualified people in other regions see this and bless their communities as well.
I came here to say this. Also have classes via zoom. You will get more participation across the country especially for those of us who want to learn about being sustainable in real ways.
Also, I totally want to go back and rewatch your videos from the very beginning because watching ya’ll’s journey has just been a blessing. Thank you, Jess, family, and community.
Great News!!!!! You are quite a bright and shining light. All of you at Abudance+ are such amazing guides that provide love, laughter, and above all Hope in a world that desperately needs it. Thank you from my whole heart for all of the work each and every one of you does. May God bless you today more than you know. Sending much love! Enjoy Your day! 🌻
Thank you so much for the best day ever! I had so much fun meeting everyone and seeing the farm! So excited to come back to SC to visit your coffee shop and your brick and mortar homestead store!!
Jess! I got goosebumps when editing Jess comes in and I heard Carolina Homestead Exchange exit your mouth! What a beautiful communion with McMurray!! Over here in Utah we have valued our McMurray birds for years! We could see the value in the company with our first order. You are so deserving of this beautiful opportunity Jess! You are so humble and have worked so hard! I have learned to garden mainly from you. I don’t give up because I hear your voice saying that “these plants want to grow, all you have to do is give them what they need”. At least a year ago I heard you say that. After every storm and I want to give up, I hear you encouraging me. The garden is so resilient! I had no idea! Most of my life I gave up. It wasn’t until you told me how much they just want to grow. So simple yet so life changing Jess! I can’t wait to keep learning from you two!!!
I can't express how happy it makes me feel to watch your journey to not only fulfill your dreams, but to share and help others do the same. It's something I would have love to have done when I was younger. However, with some help, it has inspired me to go bigger this year to help feed others. God bless you and your family and may all your days be full of the proper amounts of sunshine and rain.
Wow! So many plans and dreams! Don't let it get overwhelming and keep your hands in the dirt! It will keep you grounded and centered! Prayers up everything falls into place for y'all!
Asher is just SO polite! ...I teared up when you were talking about the gentleman who owned the hardware store and how you had shared your vision with him. That is something that will make him and his family proud...knowing that their family building is going to hold the future for many people.
Jess, I literally have dreams that we'd be friends some day. To come along side you in teaching the world about gardening. Reaching the Deaf Community is my main goal. So happy for you and so proud of you. God Bless. -Celest 💚🌱
Hello! I am not deaf but am fluent in ASL. I would love to connect and see what I can do to to help get these messages to the deaf community out here in Utah!
What a brilliant idea. Blessings and prosperity going forward to you and yours ❤️( I have friends who would be interested in your information.) ❤️✝️🇺🇸☮️🌼🌸🌻🌺❤️
Jess, you are spot on, desiel fuel shortages, dont expect the stores to have lots of fresh produce. I feel the same way i feel its time to get growing. I am humbled by what you have done and grateful that so many young people are there to support and learn. Bless You for being here for all of us.
I have been here since the beginning of your journey and I am just bursting with pride watching you and your family not only bringing your own dreams to fruition, but for showing that it’s possible for everyone no matter where their waiting room happens to be.
I cried through so much of this video… my heart is just bursting with joy for you! I am so grateful all of your dreams are coming true Jess. You’re truly changing the world 💕
Congratulations!! Every time over the last several months you said you were partnering with Tom on an awesome project, I had thought you were developing a new chicken breed (Jess's Orpingtons with variegated eggs? hehe), but this is even cooler :). What an awesome adventure.
You were such a good steward before. I feel like you are so prepared for all this abundance and I'm beaming for you! It's really something to watch this and be apart of something so big.
Congrats on the new venture. When you mentioned a cafe in the future I immediately thought of a local establishment here in Boone, NC. The FARM (Feed All Regardless of Means) cafe. It's a pay what you can cafe that sources it's ingredients from local farms. If you ever make up to the High Country of NC check it out (they also have a website). Much love and blessings to you all.
Congratulations on your homesteading store plans! I’m over here in Aiken County not too far away and will definitely check it out next spring! Good luck in all your endeavors. I always look forward to your videos and watching your progress on the farm!
Visions coming to life! Just wonderful, and what a blessing to the homestead community and your local area as well. Congratulations and best wishes for all your beautiful dreams coming to fruition. 💗
Please tell me your gonna eventually have a website to order supplies from too😍😍😍. This is so amazing. Ya all ever just step back and see how far you have come....like wow!!! Inspirational!!!! May the lord continue to bless your journey and open doors for you and your family.
The best part of this vid for me, the legacy. History, soul. THATS the best part. How can you go wrong with God on your side & lovingly taking the hearts and souls of *generations* and joining the past with the present? Congratulations on making your dreams a reality.
Feeling so emotional about all your accomplishments! This is living your dream at it's purists. I love how you taking your whole family on this journey (together with your husband) and sharing your knowledge with all the others who love gardening, having a homestead, farm, healthy food lovers, etc. THANK YOU JESS and family, I am following since almost 3 years. Being in the garden gives me peace, as I now hear what it gives to many people. It helped me settle in the US, WI since moving from Germany for my husbands career. My husband and son are more and more interested in my :)/our garden. My 4 years old is proud and protective on his! own sprout and that makes me just more happy :) Just thank you and bless you Ninja
Girl, you better pinch yourself. I've been with you about a year before Mia's mom passed. I can't even believe the giant leaps you've made!! 💜🌻 May your dreams keep flourishing!
I've watched you since the early day's girl. and I can't tell you enough HOW proud I am of you and sweet Miah and what you have done with your lives and farms , All while maintaining all those little babies you have..How wonderful to see that it CAN still be done..God First, Family and farm ...Bravo!!
It's sooooo wonderful to see you so ecstatically happy, healthy and fulfilled after such a gray winter, Jess!!! May the windows of heaven continue to pour out such a blessing upon you that even THIS store can't contain it! See you Friday!
Your vision has blossomed in exactly the right moment. It is lovely to see your optimism fertilize such a great future for the folks in your community and beyond. It looks to me that you are paying your success forward tenfold. I can see you helping so many people to help themselves and their families. It is lovely watching your and Miah's journey, Jess. :)
TYJ! So overwhelmingly happy for you guys! Your faces are blooming happiness. You are the most inspiring individuals I know. I’ve been following for 3-4 years and in that time I have become a hopeful heart and backyard homesteader. Everyday I start my day with a TYJ for being who you say you are! And to you…I’m saying the same. Thank you for being who you say you are❤️
I am SO happy about this! I told my husband y'all's obedience to the Lord will bless this community more than you know! THANK YOU for staying faithful! 🤍
Multiple times I felt chills of excitement & joy for the successes you are sharing. The smile on your face, Jess, if bright & your heart happiness shines radiant. It's exciting to be the fly on the VLOG wall as things continue to transpire for you, Miah, your children, friends & farm! Thanks for sharing!
I have to chuckle because I remember your story in the past about the storage shed...you are never going to let them take your shed away again! Onward bound!
I was in tears 6 minutes into this video. You're doing such incredible things in the world, and you've already changed my life through what you've offered in your videos. In addition to helping me gain confidence in gardening (this is my second year at it!), you've also inspired me to create my own videos. I talk about you in my Intro video. Thank you for all you do - I already feel like we are friends (which to me means that you are fully authentic and real!). Huge blessings and hugs to you and your family!!!
Congratulations! It’s been awesome hearing you share your vision over the years AND to see you all bring it to fruition. Thank you for sharing this journey with us! I can’t wait to see the store all stocked. Enjoy this next phase!!
Jess, I have watched you and your family for 3 + years and have admired and loved you. I want to let you know that I am excited with where God is leading you and I will continue to pray for you 🙏🙏🙏
Celebrating with every once of your beautiful success. Your vision will take you so far and inspire so many others to do more than they thought possible. 💜
Congratulations on your new store! I'm excited and thankful for your experience in homesteading to help so many people, including myself, to learn from your experiences. God is blessing you through it all! I can hardly wait to see what you have to teach each day.
Dreams coming true. My heart is full for you and all you have accomplished and all that is to come. Congratulations and blessings as you work toward this next goal of opening the Carolina Homestead Exchange. I eagerly look forward to sharing each page as you write this new chapter in your lives.
I am so happy for you and Miah. Those people must have been in heaven! As I sat and watched this video and the tears of joy ran down my face, I realized how heavy my dream is to own a farm and homestead. I’m taking your advice and using my backyard as my classroom. Thank you for inspiring me to just plant and learn. This is year 3 of going for it in the garden and I can’t thank you enough for just being real. You’ve encouraged me more than you know. I literally wait for your next video. And I realized as I wait for the next one how relevant and helpful watching your old videos are because my garden is producing more and more each year. And now there is more absorption of the information because I can see it in my own garden. I’m thankful you decided to share your knowledge, heart, and family. We ARE truly blessed to have you as a resource.
As I sat watching this video, my tears started to fall. Not sad tears but tears of gratitude and hope. My heart has been so heavy for what I see happening in our country. But seeing this video...seeing what you guys are working so diligently for....being amazed at your vision and the determination you have to bring about change and seeing so many young faces surrounding you with support gives me so much hope and encouragement that America will pull through these dark days. That there is a farming revolution to return to where we came from. That small family farms will rise again. Thank you for the hard work, thank you for sharing your vision. In so doing you encourage us all to "do what you can, where you are" . God bless you, your families and your work. Thank you for stepping up and leading us all towards a brighter future!
KEEP GROWING, JESS!!! So exciting to see heart-led people dreaming big AND have the tenacity to GET IT DONE. We all need to see that so I'm glad you share this with us ❤❤ may your abundance and joy continue to multiply. I'm a fellow big dreamer and from-the-muscle girl so you give me life 😘😘
Your family has come so far from your humble beginnings. You must be so proud. Congratulations! Your hard work has not gone unnoticed. We watch your family and farm grow and the real connections you gain so quickly.
I live little further up in South Carolina, and I am excited for when the store opens up. There is such a need for things like this, I personally have felt like there's so many people in my area trying to do these things on their own and not really having the time to invest in learning the right ways to homestead. I have made so many mistakes well not even mistakes more like missteps. And there's so many things I still have to learn. And as someone getting started in this, and pretty much all of life a little bit older than the average person getting started, it can be daunting. Like I'm not afraid to do pretty much anything that I watch RUclips videos about except for canning because you can kill someone if you don't do it right. And the whole idea of doing some of this is to find a way to provide for your family to protect them. I've asked so many people if they teach me how to can and nobody has really maybe even felt confident enough to show me or host a small class of people who are interested in it. And as someone who did not have the advantage of growing up being taught these things in person by my relatives I very much would take the time and spend the money to travel to another part of the state to learn something so important in person. I literally will be planning a vacation that way when the store opens just for that purpose. I'm very glad God is blessing your dreams and this matter and I pray that he continues to bless y'all so you can continue to be good stewards of the knowledge and success that you have been blessed with. Thank you.
Oh myyyy!!! I’m so happy to hear that your next dream is starting to come to fruition!! I know that it’s early, but what an amazing fulfillment of the promises indeed 🙌🏼
Many blessings to all of you on your next adventure . I have been following you for 3 years now and you inspire me so much. Best of all good things for your family. Thank you for the education and inspiration.
I am so thrilled for your families! Creating a lasting legacy. Bringing life back into a small downtown! I can’t wait to see it come together, please share the Reno’s and vision for the store!
Asher repeating "Yes ma'am." ❤️ what a gentleman
I thought the same thing! Love it!
I loved hearing Asher say that!
Yes you should be one proud Mamma
I COMMENTED ON THE SAME THING HE IS SO SWEET, POLITE TO HIS DEAR MOTHER❤️
It was my favorite part 💛 just the sweetest
At the end of the video I burst into tears. You went from cherishing their catalog and dreaming, to having their help to open your store. God is good my friend. I’m so happy for you.
God does miracles he never fails
He is good all the time!
🥰🥰🥰
Asher’s such a good kid, his yes ma’ams we’re so genuine and respectful ❤❤❤❤
I noticed that also. I grew up with yes ma'ams and yes sirs. It was wonderful to hear.
Oh I thought so too! How respectful. It’s a testament to how well Jess and Miah have raised those boys.
Agreed!! ❤️❤️❤️
Jess I am so sorry for the people who feel justified to judge how you spend your hard earned money. I have never in my life encountered such rude and emboldened behavior. I love your transparency and the fact that you open your life to a bunch of strangers! Some folks dine on a lot of sour grapes. I for one am so pleased with your success! You share hope which is desperately needed!
You’re now like the Joanna Gaines of Gardeners. I pray a multitude of blessings comes from this space and that you continue to be a light where ever you go!! Thank you for sharing with us your beautiful heart.
SO TRUE!!
Having watched the Sowers family almost from the beginning of this RUclips journey, I'm sitting here bawling like a baby.

I have to chuckle because I remember your story in the past about the storage shed...you are never going to let them take your shed away again! Onward bound!
Thank you so much for bringing this to our community. It is a blessing. Batesburg is being restored. I cannot wait to shop with y’all.
Shoutout to Asher for his excellent manners! Beautiful vlog. Congratulations!
I was in tears 6 minutes into this video. You're doing such incredible things in the world, and you've already changed my life through what you've offered in your videos. In addition to helping me gain confidence in gardening (this is my second year at it!), you've also inspired me to create my own videos. I talk about you in my Intro video. Thank you for all you do - I already feel like we are friends (which to me means that you are fully authentic and real!). Huge blessings and hugs to you and your family!!!
Yes! You will be a pioneer in America coming home to its roots. 💙
Hi Jess and Miah! Congrats on opening a store next Spring. Asher is so polite. Thank you so much for sharing!
Congratulations! It’s been awesome hearing you share your vision over the years AND to see you all bring it to fruition. Thank you for sharing this journey with us! I can’t wait to see the store all stocked. Enjoy this next phase!!
Jess, I have watched you and your family for 3 + years and have admired and loved you. I want to let you know that I am excited with where God is leading you and I will continue to pray for you 🙏🙏🙏
Celebrating with every once of your beautiful success. Your vision will take you so far and inspire so many others to do more than they thought possible. 💜
What a great story. Sounds like that was needed in the area. Can't wait to follow this new chapter of yours... Bobby
Congratulations on your new store! I'm excited and thankful for your experience in homesteading to help so many people, including myself, to learn from your experiences. God is blessing you through it all! I can hardly wait to see what you have to teach each day.
Dreams coming true. My heart is full for you and all you have accomplished and all that is to come. Congratulations and blessings as you work toward this next goal of opening the Carolina Homestead Exchange. I eagerly look forward to sharing each page as you write this new chapter in your lives.
Congratulations! What an incredible idea that will bless so many. God Bless.
What a fabulous idea and plan! Best of luck. Looking forward to seeing it happen along the way. Many blessings.... 🙏
SO VERY EXCITED FOR ALL OF YOU! Your dreams and visions are unfolding. Congratulations Jess and Miah. I’m so excited for you. LOVE 💕💕💕💕💕💕
I am so happy for you and Miah. Those people must have been in heaven! As I sat and watched this video and the tears of joy ran down my face, I realized how heavy my dream is to own a farm and homestead. I’m taking your advice and using my backyard as my classroom. Thank you for inspiring me to just plant and learn. This is year 3 of going for it in the garden and I can’t thank you enough for just being real. You’ve encouraged me more than you know. I literally wait for your next video. And I realized as I wait for the next one how relevant and helpful watching your old videos are because my garden is producing more and more each year. And now there is more absorption of the information because I can see it in my own garden. I’m thankful you decided to share your knowledge, heart, and family. We ARE truly blessed to have you as a resource.
What a great event! Community is so important!
Super Excited and proud of the many milestones you guys are accomplishing!!!! I can't wait to come to the store!!!
As I sat watching this video, my tears started to fall. Not sad tears but tears of gratitude and hope. My heart has been so heavy for what I see happening in our country. But seeing this video...seeing what you guys are working so diligently for....being amazed at your vision and the determination you have to bring about change and seeing so many young faces surrounding you with support gives me so much hope and encouragement that America will pull through these dark days. That there is a farming revolution to return to where we came from. That small family farms will rise again. Thank you for the hard work, thank you for sharing your vision. In so doing you encourage us all to "do what you can, where you are" . God bless you, your families and your work. Thank you for stepping up and leading us all towards a brighter future!
May your New Venture be Abundantly Blessed....❤️
Congratulations on your up coming store! What a blessing! God is good!
KEEP GROWING, JESS!!! So exciting to see heart-led people dreaming big AND have the tenacity to GET IT DONE. We all need to see that so I'm glad you share this with us ❤❤ may your abundance and joy continue to multiply. I'm a fellow big dreamer and from-the-muscle girl so you give me life 😘😘
Oh my fav mama farmer - prepare for the politics of relocation and small town-ish development. I wish you the bestest of luck. Love your vision.
Congratulations Jess!! What a wonderful day filled with so many amazing people! Excited to follow along with your new adventures in the community!
CONGRATULATIONS, What a wonderful thing you're doing. It's nice to see how you are growing.
Your family has come so far from your humble beginnings. You must be so proud. Congratulations! Your hard work has not gone unnoticed. We watch your family and farm grow and the real connections you gain so quickly.
I live little further up in South Carolina, and I am excited for when the store opens up. There is such a need for things like this, I personally have felt like there's so many people in my area trying to do these things on their own and not really having the time to invest in learning the right ways to homestead. I have made so many mistakes well not even mistakes more like missteps. And there's so many things I still have to learn. And as someone getting started in this, and pretty much all of life a little bit older than the average person getting started, it can be daunting. Like I'm not afraid to do pretty much anything that I watch RUclips videos about except for canning because you can kill someone if you don't do it right. And the whole idea of doing some of this is to find a way to provide for your family to protect them. I've asked so many people if they teach me how to can and nobody has really maybe even felt confident enough to show me or host a small class of people who are interested in it. And as someone who did not have the advantage of growing up being taught these things in person by my relatives I very much would take the time and spend the money to travel to another part of the state to learn something so important in person.
I literally will be planning a vacation that way when the store opens just for that purpose. I'm very glad God is blessing your dreams and this matter and I pray that he continues to bless y'all so you can continue to be good stewards of the knowledge and success that you have been blessed with. Thank you.
Oh myyyy!!! I’m so happy to hear that your next dream is starting to come to fruition!! I know that it’s early, but what an amazing fulfillment of the promises indeed 🙌🏼
