    Hey ya’ll! I watch all the time! We live in Normandy, TN which is Middle TN. I am from East TN near the NC line in Greene County, TN. My brothers still live near Greeneville, TN.
    Anyway, we live a lot like ya’ll & grew up that way. Raised by my Ma & Pa, they were born in 1903. I learned the real way to live like you do!
    Want to tell you both, ya’ll are the best teachers for your viewers. You are brilliant & creative!
    Ya’ll’s kids are “cuter than a spotted pup under a red wagon!”
    Well gotta go puttin up okra, tomatoes, yella crookneck squash & green beans all day!!

    Blueberries have shallow roots and will only get moisture from the first 3 to 4 inches of soil. You would do well to water the blueberries and mulch them heavy. I've grown blueberries for years and I know the watering and mulching works because we've had several yrs of drought, but I kept my bushes alive and thriving. Got gallons and gallons off one bush this year. Fertilize your bushes in early February with a balanced fertilizer and give the trees all your coffee grounds. I save my grounds in an old coffee can and when it's full I dump them around the bushes, gives them a little extra acid that they love.

    My Dad was a family of 10 kids and they always had a big garden. Then when they all got married and had families of their own. Most of them had garden on their own I learned a lot and always helped my Dad and Mom with their garden. But I’m 65 now and I have to say you both have thought me alot at this age. I have passed what I have learned from you and passed it off to my kids. Thank you so much for sharing your life lessons. I believe it will make a big difference in the future for many.😊❤

    Thanks for sharing all you folks do around there. It does inspire folks to get out and do anything they can to help feed their families or grow something they really like eat. Learning from you youngsters ( I am 79) has taken me back quite a number of years where they tried to teach me to be a farmer and now I wish I had taken an interest in learning the trade, so I am picking up things that were forced on me back when I was 8 & 9 years old when I was farmed out for the summers . Stay safe and keep up the great videos . Fred.

    Andy is 100% right, those are Red Bartlett pears! I live in the former Pear Capital of the World, Kelseyville, California. I'm always amazed to see how the east coast stays green all summer & the rain during summer. Here on the west coast, we usually don't get rain beyond spring & are lucky is we get fall rain. Winter is our rainy season & we've had a lot of droughts in the last 10 years. We have to have sprinklers or drip hose to even grow a garden & it must be daily. I'm sorry you're experiencing a drought. I hope you get some saving rain to recover some. I absolutely love your videos & your ways!

I'll bet that'll be beautiful! Whenever you all talk about sorghum, I remember my Grandma making dollar-size pancakes for us grandkids, slathering them with peanut butter and molasses, and having pancake-eating contests that way with our Pa (grandpa!). Oh man, they'd get 10" inches high and was SO good, but it's amazing I didn't have more cavities as a young person! Of course my Pa had dentures, so... 😂 I've always said "Have a good one!" too so I hope you all do. And God bless!

    Lost my peaches and plums this year from not pruning or spraying enough. Brown rot fungus and worms. Also needed to thin or take off peaches for the rest to get bigger. I took off about a hundred peaches and it still wasn’t enough. Bet I picked over a hundred bad ones that were ripening. 4 year old trees i think. BT, neem, permethrin and copper sulfate used. Will start earlier next winter, prune hard and spray every two weeks til blossoms then start again after blossoms fall until harvest. Lesson learned!

As for the corn, seed saved from your fields under the stress we are experiencing, will produce a landrace cross that will have awesome traits as it pertains to drought resistance, vigor and tolerance. Just continue to have fun with it, and future results will make it all worth while. 👍🏽

    When we planted field corn the outside rows always got hit hard by the deer. They'd eat half the cob and move on to the next one. We would cut them down with a machete, load them into a wagon and feed them to our beef cattle. It's a lot of work but the cows sure liked it.

    We have huge blackberry bushes growing at the base of our driveway. They have all shriveled up and died. Of course, here in California and in our area particularly, we’ve experiencing a heat wave that’s in the triple digit teens. Mostly around 112 and 113 but we’ve had a few 116s and 117s. And we don’t water them wild bushes. On the flip side, they are growing up along the edge of a pond.

    It's hard to watch your crop suffer in a drought! Hopefully you'll get some rain soon!

    SQUASH BUGS. check out Tippers recipe for easy to make squash bug spray on her channel "celebrating Appalachia." I only have a few plants, so I made a small batch to put in a spray bottle. I used about 2 Tblsp red pepper flakes and one whole bulb garlic. Ground them with a little water to make a slurry. Poured about 4 cups boiling water over it and let it sit about 8 hours. Strained it into spray bottle. Sprayed squash plant (top and bottom leaves and all) in the early evening. By morning the young ones were dead and the big ones were dead or gone. Sprayed them the 2nd night just in case, but no sign of bugs. My squash plants bounced back and is bright and happy. Hope this helps. I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for what you do.

    Andy I’m guessing that if you do have a good corn crop it’s going to be in the garden that’s in the garden beside your house and you were talking about the sorgam in your garden and I love sorghum molasses and it’s so high in the grocery store that you can’t afford to buy it and I have been to festivals that have it and it’s about $10 dollars for a pint jar of it

    Don't feel to discourage Andy, we are suffering here in Tennessee as well.

    For remote gardens you may be able to sink a shallow well with a cast iron hand pump to water garden plants.

      our water table here is way to deep for that, somewhere around 150 all the way to 3-400 feet before you hit water

    I was listening closely to see if y'all grew peas/crowders and the MS purple hull . The last farm in my state that grew them sold their land to a power company. I truly miss a pot of peas and okra along with my Dad's biscuits or flour bread. Now that's eating. ❤

    Just A Suggestion in the Dry Areas where the pond won't reach, how about Building a Small Water Tower to pump from. Save You from Carry Water...Always Enjoy Watching Ya'll

    If your corn doesn’t grow tall enough just cut some cane and stick it in beside the beans.
