Close to 1/15 of an acre :) It's so encouraging how much food you can grow in a relatively small space! Everything is beautiful 😍 ❤
(A half acre would be 21,780 square feet and 1/10 of an acre would be 4,356 square feet )
Oh my goodness! 🤭 I think you have figured this out! This makes so much sense to me!!! Thank youuuuu 🥰
@@ourfreedomsong You are so welcome 🌸🌸 Thank YOU for sharing it with us!

Beautiful!
“You could boil a green bean to death and I’d still eat it”. Me too lol
Hahahaha 😍
I grew up in the Midwest and that was the absolute only way to eat them hahaha so I'm used to it. Haha
The garden is lush and the earrings are popping! 🥰 My daughter would absolutely love this pair you have on!💜. I’m loving how the gravel pops against all the other structures. That’s something I’m looking at as a garden floor. We have pups and my husband feels they need grass. I just love the gravel look. Fantastic video! Looking forward to what’s to come! 💜🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Your personal eden is absolutely gorgeous! Serene and inspiring! 🤩
Thank you so much! ❤️
@@ourfreedomsong 🌾🍇🍃 You bet!
It's crazy how your garden has grown. I remember watching your videos when you were just starting and clearing bamboo. What a blessing
Woooooow! It seems like both forever ago and yesterday 🥰
Everything is so beautiful. I’m so behind
I truly enjoy watching the videos! And I would love to see the separate garden tours! ❤
I am ever so glad that I found you!!!! I'm in NC but we are Kindred Spirits. I enjoy your videos! Please take care!
So sweet! I'm so happy you have as well ❤️
I like the idea of full tour and them divide up the 3 areas would be awesome.
I love your channel, I don't have the space but am working on that and I will definitely look at your channel for feedback. Thanks for being so pure with your information and god bless you with so much more knowledge and continue sharing it with us. 😃
I like the idea of separate videos for your garden. Maybe include a video just on your fruit trees
💚💚💚Beans are an amazing plant. I love beans and collect their seeds. Your beans look amazing in the palm of your hand!💚💚💚
Thank you so much! I absolutely love growing beans as well!
So lovely!
Your faithfulness is apparent. A garden like this does not just happen. I takes dedication to the process.
Glory be to God!👏🏽
Thank you so much 🥰
It is so satisfying to grow things from seed!
YASSSS
I dozed off while you were talking about your tomatoes. I started dreaming about harvesting so many tomatoes and I couldn't wait to tell my followers that I was about to be tomato rich. But it was in your voice 😂
Wow! 😍😍😍
Everything looks amazing. I think it's a good idea to focus on each garden area. I can see it being helpful.
❤❤❤
I love your garden.
I'm so happy you do ❤️
My garden is literally 4 raised beds, 2 original Greenstalks, 1 leaf Greenstalk, and 4 large grow bags. I am always up for seeing what can be done in raised beds and containers. However, I love gardens and chickens, so I enjoy seeing the whole garden. I will say, I often search for ideas on planting things in Greenstalks because I am learning all the different things I can plant in them. I like your ideas for trellising and for making things out of literally stuff you already have or found on the side of the road!
I just saw that greenstalk had squash growing in the greenstalk! Such a cool idea!
GIRL everything looks so so beautiful and growing so good !! 😃
Thank you ❤️
Beautiful ❤
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
So wonderful! Our entire season in Maine is what you have left! You and your garden are so inspiring, thank you.
Thank you so much! And wow! When is your first expected frost date?
@@ourfreedomsong We are May 22 to September 18, just 118 days!
So short summers! I'd love to visit Maine one day!
I enjoy all of the garden tours and the building tours, but I must admit I’m always interested in seeing what is the queen doing with her hair today😉
Hahahah 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Congratulations on your third spring growing season and, most of all, on taking the leap. It's a joy to see you all working together and enjoying the overall experience. Everything's just beautiful 😍.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have an electric canner and I love it . I'm sure you will as well simple . I can green beans for soups for the winter .Happy Gardening looking 👍🏽
I love your positive energy and garden 😊👍🏼
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Your garden looks so beautiful
I'm here for the full garden tour! I'm gonna watch it all, I garden in raised beds and in-ground, and potatoes in containers!
😍😍😍😍😍
Hi your garden is so awesome and absolutely beautiful. You have such a great space and have developed it well. I am amazed at how much were planting in your videos and it has paid off. Take care. ❤❤❤😊😊
Thank you so much ❤️
You are growing a beautiful fantastic garden I would find myself in the garden all day long if my garden looked like yours. I wouldn't mind seeing the video of the garden broken into three of four videos I know they all would be fabulous. Thanks for sharing such beauty this morning enjoyed it all
Love your beautiful and peaceful garden!
❤️
Hey!!, I just find your channel this morning….. already Subscribed
A pleasure to watch! You are just a sweetheart!! Your whole garden is soooo beautiful.
God bless you and your family!! 🌺🦋
WELCOME ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I'm so happy you are here!
@@ourfreedomsong thanks!!! 🌸🙏
Good afternoon, thank you for such a amazing garden tour❤.
So sweet! Thank you for joining me ❤️
What you have created there is just amazing. Wow. ❤️
Thank you so very much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You really are an inspiration I have enjoyed your content and learned quite a bit my true first year without my John in gardening and your family is Amazing ❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love watching you and your channel. I am in northern Iowa and our season is a lot shorter, but that's what I'm used to. I just finished getting everything in the ground this morning. Now as I say that I may plant a few flowers and a few flower seeds yet. I noticed a lot of volunteer cucumbers and marigolds in my in ground garden this morning. I haven't planted cucumbers there for 2 years. I'll let the cucumbers spread and I'll dig up some of the marigolds and rehome them.
Volunteers 😍😍😍
Spray neem oil on your sunflower leaves. Itll repel bugs away. It works. I use it for my tomato plant leaves and eggplant leaves bcus i have spidermite problems. So they hate neem oil and dont destroy my veggie plants😊
I love you garden. I'm just learning how to garden. I have 5 tomato plants and 3 blueberry bushes! Lol. So small but I hope my garden will grow bigger each year like yours has. I'll be glad to see your tours of the different sections.
I love your garden! I'm so happy you have started! Good choice on your first picks! 😍
Sis, I love your earing. Yes, you have given me great ideas for gardening, and I did borrow a few ideas
I'm so happy you did! And thank you! ❤️
Your garden looks amazing🙏🏾💙🙏🏾 Basil tea sounds interesting. Yes I have that Presto Digital Canner and I absolutely LOVE it. I got it about a year ago and he has put in some work. Super easy to use. I Can a lot of Green Beans because my Sophie loves them and so do I. Wow indeed that was a beautiful Sunflower. I have never seen one that color. Awesome garden tour Thanks for sharing. Be Blessed and have a wonderful weekend.
I love that Sophie loves your canned green beans! She is living the best life 😍
@@ourfreedomsong All Thanks to GOD we BOTH are🙏🏾Sophie will be 11 years old next week (7-11) every year I make her a “Bark-Cuterie Board” with all her favorite goodies on it. She is definitely my Special little girl. She has been with me during the bad and good times. Now we are just living our best life for sure. Be Blessed and a Big Props to the family for that gorgeous garden🙏🏾💙🙏🏾
Thank you for sharing. You have a beautiful garden❤
Thank you so much ❤️
Save seeds to all your sunflowers that dark one is beautiful. I save some last year and they grow better. They grow better and you get a lot of seeds.
I wonder what variety it is. It is beautiful 🙂
Everything looks beautiful! Did your husband make your earrings? They are so cute. Just love the new shed!! Would your husband be willing to discuss or show how he make the base? I really want to make one. Thanks for sharing!!
Can he show me how to make a bird house!🤣 I watched an older video last night😊
Greeting from zone 6 Michigan 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Enjoying your videos. That’s right ENJOY YOUR LIFE!! You’re living the DREAM of many people believe me. I’m very PROUD of you and yours🥲🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
So sweet! 🥰 Thank you 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks you for this 😊 This is my first year and it’s been amazing learning, not necessarily growing a ton 😂 but getting there
I'm so very happy for you! Half the battle is just starting! You will learn so much along the way based on your experience! 😍
Lovely ! So jealous of your long growing season. Here in Washington State we have just a bit over 120 days.
Wow that's a whole 100 days more! When is you first expected frost date? We pretty much have summer for a long time haha and then a slither of fall. Mild winter and a slither of spring 😅
This is only your 3rd spring growing season! My googness what blessed hands you have 🙌🏾. Thank you for sharing valuable wisdom with us...and pausing for hummingbird reference 🌱😆
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love that you can appreciate the pause ❤️
Yes! This is the third year! 🥰🥰🥰
Do you havdca video on how you started your compost and maintaining it. Thank you for your tour of your garden. I love your energy and joy.
I don't! We do have a compost bin but not a system of bins yet. We just really toss all of our garden scraps in that bin unless it's something good to give to the chickens!
wow my garden season is like half the length of yours up here in Canada . On the best of years we get 161 days if we are lucky. but it's usually closer to about 120 days
How hot do your summers get?! I'd love to exchange some growing days for some cooler ones 😅🥵😂
From what I've heard Canada gets pretty cold though .. which I don't think we have thick enough skin for!
I’m in Florida so our growing seasons are during Sept-May for most vegetables but I am adding tropical fruit trees soon. I’d love to see more in-depth time in your raised beds.
Thank you for letting me know! And that's super exciting to be developing your garden space even more by adding tropical trees!
Very impressive.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Pink sunflowers! I'm in.
I'm glad people are finding out the truth about squirrels. I got jumped by like 5 squirrels for my fig bar one time. I thought I was being cute feeding them - next thing I know, I was surrounded! One came from behind and pulled my pantleg -Y'all, I dropped that bar and ran so fast lol!!! I'm in Cali - don't nobody play in the WW West - even the squirrels got gangs!
I've been preaching the gospel against them ever since. Amen.
Bahahahaha !!!🐿️ Oh my goodness! What a sight that would have been! 😂
🩷🩷🩷🩷
I just bought a Presto Precise Digital electric pressure canner, also!! I can't wait to use it, esp for tomatoes. All 3,000 sq ft of your garden is so, so lovely!! Mine is 1,000 sq ft total, and all I can handle!!
So awesome!!!! It's such a wonderful size Garden Annie!
I'm so glad I found your channel! It's wonderful to watch all the hard work you and your family have put into your garden knowing the rewards that are coming soon. I would like to give you a little information that has helped me through many years of gardening. Those bug! I've battled them and squirrels for as long as I can remember. But with that said I can tell you I do pretty much win the battles. Many, many years ago my dad taught me what he used to save his gardens and it's Wormwood. Wormwood is a pretty plant with a soft green silvery color to it. A word of warning, you do not want to plant it in the garden because it spreads very easy. My dad would plant it around the outside of his garden. This became almost a fence. Even though we think it smells so nice and earthy the animals and bugs do not. In fact animals won't even walk through it to get to their favorite berry bush. The first year you don't want to cut on it, just let it flower and the seeds will drop to create even more wormwood. The second year you will be okay to take the cuttings and hang them in your tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, and anything that grows upward. For smaller plants just lay the cuttings around the base of the plant. If you google "What is Wormwood used for in the garden?", you will get the answer, 'Wormwood deters insect pests such as ants, cabbage loopers, cabbage maggots, carrot flies, codling moths, flea beetles, and whiteflies. It also seems to deter mice.' These are pretty much the top enemies in everyone's gardens. My dad would also poke it down holes that the moles have dug. If you decide to bring it into the garden in a container the first year be careful to watch for seedlings the next spring. These can be transplanted to build up a bigger stand of Wormwood to clip from for the next year. I almost forgot to say it is safe to bring inside your home if you have silverfish in a closet or spiders. Just scatter cuttings around the inside of a closet and place a sticky trap outside the door.
For protection while I waiting on the Wormwood to start popping up in early spring .... don't laugh... I use Irish Spring bar soap. I can get 3 bars for a dollar in most any of the dollar stores. I just walk through the garden with a bar and a small cheese grater and grate my way through it. And no, it won't make your veggies taste like soap. The only drawback is when it comes a hard rain. That's when I do my soap walk through again which is not a problem for me as I love to go out to my garden and talk to my plants every day.
One last thing not related to bugs. It's time for the radishes to go to seed. Don't just pull them up and discard to the compost bin just yet. Let them flower and then put out the seed pods. Those pods are your seeds for next year plus if you harvest them when they are small they are so great in potato and pasta salads. I even satay them in butter and garlic with a little onion as a side dish. In fact I wait until the weather is too hot to plant radishes and plant them anyway just to have a crop of 'radish beans' as my children have always called them. They loved to just go out and pick and eat them in the garden.
I do wish you luck with your battles and can't wait to watch when harvest time rolls around.
God Bless,
Jenny Apple
🥹😍 I really appreciate all the time you took to type all of this wealth of information out. Thank you so much for your encouragement and for your suggestions! I actually have not heard of wormwood so I am definitely going to look that up. I would love to get some seeds for that plant! Thank you again so much!
@@ourfreedomsong If you go to a garden center to see what Wormwood looks like you might be surprised to find it growing wild all over the place. I know it does where I live and my dad lives. In fact there's really no place it doesn't grow in the US.
@@ourfreedomsong I'm sorry I forgot to say it will be a while before mine puts out seed but when it does I'll be more than happy to send you plenty of them. Once you get that beginning stand going you'll have no problem growing all that you will ever need. When I moved to Colorado I found mine growing in a ditch wild. I dug up several plants and took them home to start my stand of Wormwood. That's why I suggested going to the garden center to see what it looks like and also how it smells so you can find it in the wild real very easy.
❤❤❤

Your garden is amazing, and those grapes ; let me tell you , I wanted to reach in and grab a few .😋
😍😍😍😍!!!
@@ourfreedomsongI have clusters this year as well. I’m sooooo excited!!!
Thanks for sharing your garden and would love to see more specific garden tours outlining the benefits of planting in that way. Would be appealing to new gardeners especially.
❤ Lovely garden and lovely family. ❤
Heyy! 🥰🥰🥰
Beautiful garden
Thank you ❤️
❤
❤️
you and your family are doing an amazing job your garden is looking great! ,I love your passion!💚
Try dilly beans. They are pickled. I love cutting them over salads.
I've not heard of dilly beans! I will have to look these up!
Beautiful garden area! Excited to see how it grows this season. I find it all fascinating.

Your garden looks so peaceful and abundant ❤
Thank you so much ❤️
My goodness, your garden is beautiful, I also live in 8b, i thought I was to late to plant certain things, thanks for reminding me that I still have time to plant more. ❤️
Be sure to let at least one of your cardinal basil plants flower. The flowering plant is beautiful!
Thank you for letting me know! This is my first year growing them! ❤️💕💕
Beautiful garden Tequisha! Thank you for taking us along. I am really enjoying watching the progress of the tomato trail. What are you going to do with them?😅
I keep forgetting to ask you if you have planted lemongrass, lemon balm or citronella yet to help with the mosquitoes?
Hi!!!! I'm planning lots of canning! And we've been actually eating them fresh! They are so easy to snack on! We have both lemon balm (just had a huge harvest for tea) and lemongrass! I don't have any citronella growing yet though!
You have a beautiful garden. I live tge flowers. I have watched your whole process seed to flowers. Awesome.
Thanks, because I think the squirrels ate my sunflower plants too.
Since you personally like canned green beans but also fresh… “green beans and water,” then water bath or quick pressure cook only for seal. Delicious. Retains firmness. Can’t can if want crunch. If so, let me know how!
Could maybe do pickle crisp, alum, or similar to retain crisp.
My cucumbers are taking their time, too! They need to get with the program!! I want pickles!! I watched a video The Millennial Gardener recently did pn planting varieties of cucumbers that only produce female flowers and that don't need to be pollinated by a male flower--anyway, his plants were loaded. Am thinking of trying some better producing varieties since I have such limited space. I also like to add flowers to the garden and enjoy the garden for the beauty, as wel as food production. I am a person that thinks a ripe tomato or a baby cucumber are beautiful, Though! Take care! Great garden tour!
Love this! Do you remember the name of the cucumber?!
@@ourfreedomsong The varieties are Parthenocarpic cucumbers--they do not require pollination. He featured several different types--the pickling variety is Diamant--it has mostly female flowers. The next variety he showed was a mini variety called Party Time--a small plant and a mini cucumber. Looks good for container. The next one is Merlin--It grows a more regular size cucumber, does not require pollination and only has female flowers. He also showed an Asian variety that is an heirloom called China Jade--similar to Su Yo Long in the look of the cucumber. His RUclips video address for the cucumber video is ruclips.net/video/lKc-HVDWkcs/видео.html
Pepper, remove the bottom leaves and add more compost
WOW!!! So beautiful!!!! I'm so excited to watch your videos! You are a beautiful precious soul!! I used to be a home maker when my children were little! Now I have to work! I'm in SC too! You are amazing!!!
Hey neighbor!!!! 😍😍😍
That's wonderful you had the privilege of staying home for that season. Such a blessing!
I work as well (LMT) and some days can definitely feel like I'm stretched beyond capacity 😅
Yet day after day I have enough of me to go around 🥰
I am loving your post. I would like to try an grow food but I don't like bugs. You make it look easy ,I know it is not. Thanks.
I do not like bugs either!!! Crazy right?! You can do this!
The growth of your garden since you began is absolutely amazing! I have enjoyed following you. We are beginning to work on a window greenhouse this year. I have taken many ideas from your build.
How EXCITING! I'm so very happy for you 🤩!!! It's so wonderful to hear that someone has seen the transition in the garden!
Dang it. I'm 3 hours late, but I'm here! Hey Queen!!! The garden looks fabulous. ❤️🪴🌻
HEYYYY! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Watching Little Rock Arkansas
You have a huge garden. You have it laid out in a neat and orderly manner. My garden is only a fraction of yours----probably 1/4 to 1/3. There are so many beautiful flowers thru out your garden. I like that idea and will try my hand at it next year.
Thank you so much ❤️
I do think that interplanting flowers add so much beauty to the space! 😍
Yes, let's do that. You're doing a great job. I like green beans the same way that you like them. I like your pear tree .
😍😍😍😍
What variety is the pear tree? I love pears as well 😊
Give me those earrings!!🤣🔥
My word as a newbie to gardening was “leggy”. I was like whaaaat?!?🤣🤣🤣
YASSSS
0.5 is half an acre so you're on a little over half ❤❤beautiful garden space it is filling in well
HEYYYY! I had to look this up, half an acre(0.5) is 21,780 sq ft (we have 3000 sq ft of space which is 0.065)
If that makes sense!
I so appreciate you trying to help me figure this out! 😍
Anything or WAY you want to show us to me is great
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I planted some more sunflower seeds. I planted some shallots seeds. I wanna try to grow my own shallots and I have two new beds, but there are work in progress of filling them because they’re very large so I’m putting. Logs in right now.
Good Morning
✨
I received my chip drop, so we are activity spreading them in the gardens
Congratulations!
I like to freeze my green beans too I don't like them canned except for a few for soups
Soup could definitely be an exception! Veggie soup growing up always had green beans! I hadn't thought of that!
Do you do anything specific to freeze them? I.e blanch 1st? Thx!
Everything looks so lovely. I hope our tomatoes turn out as well as yours! I sent you an email (from asong4sherry) with pics of lemon balm craziness & others. Please share some video of your canning experience. I've wanted to try this. Blessings!
Also...I believe your 3000 sq ft is approximately 1/16th (a bit more) of an acre.
Great job!! So, the only thing that helps me think of how big your garden is think of a football field. That is 1 acre without the end zones. So how ever size your garden is that should give you your measurements.. Happy Gardening ❤️
Thank you for trying to help me figure this out! 😍
Are you sure that “black stuff” I think under the leaves isn’t poop of a caterpillar or something? You have a bee-you-tee-ful garden! Geez! ❤️❤️❤️🧡
Thank youuuu 🫶🏾 I will have to do a close up! It's attached /glued to the bottom of the leaf... And has a triangular type shape! It's bizarre!
Hello from Tallahassee
HEYYYY ❤️
Everything looks so good so this year I focused it on cucumbers for pickling and so I have a lot of cucumbers all around in my front yard garden and in my backyard garden, I didn’t do good on zucchini. I have two more plants. I’m gonna see how that come out but the vine board has been getting all my zucchini and I have about I don’t know three or four plants I just planted, I think I planted another one, but it was a hybrid and then I didn’t do a few tomatoes. I think I only got four tomatoes cause I wanted to focus on cucumbers for pickling. I’m doing Boston pickling, pickles or cucumbers, and I’ve already made 5 quarts and I still got a whole bunch of pickles to get ready if we’re not eating them then I’m pickling them.
I think I’m going to bell peppers of all sorts
What kinda beans are those with orange flowers. I’ve never seen bean flowers that color. Your garden is beautiful!!!
Scarlett Runner Beans ❤️
Those are called Sunburst Cosmos and they produce their own seeds so I would catch the seeds and save them. I’ve been growing them cosmos for 25 years and I save the seeds and I also give them out in little envelopes with paper envelopes as gifts to people because they are beautiful and the bees love them I have so many bumblebee in my backyardand the marigolds too they produce their own seats so for sure you wanna save those seats and you can mix them up. They’ll be fine but if you’d like to separate them separate them, but the cosmos are my favorite that I actually have a canvas shot that I took of it and I use it as artwork.
Very cool! They are Soooo beautiful! I was gifted those beauties from a friend! ❤️
None of my Eskimo marigolds germinated! They're so pretty!
They are so pretty! Definitely try again 😍
Oh! How tall is the ‘wall’ (lattice?) that has the beans growing on it? Thx.
I love your tours. I’m having a hard time germinating marigolds 🤷🏽♀️☹️
I would say that they are probably about 2 ft. Plus. Our fences is about 4 ft so maybe that area is 6 ft altogether
Could buy piece of shade cloth. Stake with bamboo.
What kind of worms is that? 😊 18:27
u just pruned a primary leaf u need to prune the suckers
I prune all of it. If it's diseased or getting to "full" I prune. We have so many plants growing in this space that it's what I have experienced to be best!
What variety are your pear trees?
What are you going to protect your tomato plants? I keep getting slugs bitting into my tomato and peppers plants before they can even start to flower
Daily checking! And removing any unwanted worms! We don't really do with slugs at this point
One acre is about 43,500 square feet so I think your 3000 ft garden is a little more than 1/15th of an acre.
I love your brain! Girl THANK YOUUUU ❤️
So why hang the growbags? For space? I grow exclusively in growbags, so I'm curious.
That's cool that you have a grow bag garden! 😍
Hanging them was just a personal preference. I absolutely love vertical planting and wanted to see if this could be accomplished with something that is typically used exclusively on the ground. And IT WORKED! I'm so pleased with how it turned out! I'm thinking about planting flowers under the bags now that there is the space to do that!
That woild be very pretty. God bless you! Living your best life!!
