Her combination of traditional/modernization/resourcefulness/intuitiveness is AMAZING AND PRICELESS ! If she hasn’t already she should definitely write a book!
Wow, only two years experience and Airam is SUPER knowledgeable and very interesting to listen to as she explains the "what" and the "why" of her garden. I learned a few things. She's amazing.
She can afford groceries. She is just bringing rats to the neighborhood. That will attract pests. Cheap more on. You grow a couple of tomatoes or something. Not turn your house into a farm. Damn liberals.
She mentioned that she grew up gardening and had parents who were very knowledgeable as well. So she's definitely not a beginner. She's amazing though. Beautiful garden! ❤️
1. That Epic Gardening merch design looks really good. 2. There was so much great gardening knowledge in this tour. 3. I like her how she says "that's correct" when responding to Kevin.
Although I love your videos Kevin, I also appreciate how you center your community folks. Such a great setup and inspiring story, especially when Airam talks about her food memories with her dad and grandmother. Thanks for the vid.
I’m hoping to have something like her garden in a few years. I just started gardening this year and am growing 3 types of tomatoes, 2 lemon trees, 1 lime tree, chives, mint, basil, rosemary, sage, thyme, tarragon, marjoram, and a few others. The tomatoes are through the roof delicious. But her garden looks so great- wish she were my neighbor. 😄
Love the idea of you touring around to other gardens. Great to see what other people do, their set up, advice, why they garden and any issues and problems they have that you can help them with!

Love her garden. Cattle panels were 24 dollars last year now 36 dollars. Her idea on double welded wire gives the strength yet allows for a narrower walkway where a cattle panel may be too stiff. Great video!
After starting a backyard food garden 18 months ago I no longer buy fruit or vegies. Delicious and so satisfying. A couple of hens completed the circle ❤
Same location, zone 6 and on my deck, it gets 8 to 10 degrees warmer during the day, so my container garden benefits. My melon plants are still flowering.
Montana here, mid 40s to 50s. I use the shitty concrete rain panels next to the building for my poor heat loving plants, they soak up the heat during the day and release it at night, or at least that's the theory.
Time to use those cold hardy crops. I'm in zone 6 east central indiana....kales, radishes, lettuce (limited, they are fantastic but the first hard frost kills them) spinach, sprouts inside and parsley in pots as well as in the garden. I use row covers to keep the wind away. I often pick fresh greens past Christmas, and then start again in March.
Michigan here too, cleaned out some of my smart pots, hoping my beefsteaks have time to ripen yet. Refreshing used soil for next spring, planting fall garlic and looking at Birdie to expand my garden next year🤗
Same here for zone 6a/6b Ontario 🇨🇦 … almost finished harvesting most summer vegs; starting to dig up and prep beds and containers for next season and prepping plants for overwintering … practically Fall already … our “summer” went by in a flash! 🤣
Small gardens are much harder to take care of. You must take great care with each plant as there are not enough to lose to neglect or bugs. That is why if you have the room you grow more than you need. I have a self watering wicking bucket I use for a worm bin. It works great and when I fill it with water I catch the worm tea that comes out the bottom hole. Also I find that if you turn the table scrapes you feed the worms too into a smoothy first they eat it much faster. 👍
You can garden wherever you are. Some areas just take more effort than others. Even if you don't have a yard, all you need is a window, a pot, and some knowledge.
So if you do decide Togo to different places around the US, I vote you come up to the Seattle area to see Misilla from the Learn to Grow channel! It's neat to see just how much you can grow in a climate like ours, and she's a wonderful person whom I think definitely deserves more attention (her first book is about to come out!).
@@Velkhana22 yes you can but I don't have the room for it. I'm living in a housing unit and it's only 2 bedroom and I don't eat egg plant. But thank you for your advice. I really appreciate it. God Bless and have a great day in the lord.
Hey, this is professional stuff, right here! The walkthrough, the planning within the limited sources of money and the way it was presented...very inspirational..Yes, i started small this year..as kitchen garden, planning to grow like an 'artificial forest', no planning - I have lots of tomatoes, indian cucumber, egg plan, capsicum red and green, basil, cantalope...the seeds are all literally from Kitchen waste and I did not use any fertilizers, just the soil mix, all the fertilizers are from kitchen waste, just i threw the kitchen throws into the soil directly...as i mentioned it should be like a forest...never used any fertilizer..I had a decent couple of harvests.Though we are getting vegetables for very cheap, as we have two very big Indian grocery stores 10 mins driving distance from each other, they are selling for a dead cheap rates...BUT still I will continue growing my little forest...I named it as "Kitchen to Kitchen" garden - as the seeds and fertilizer are from kitchen and the produce will go back to kitchen, it is a cycle...your walkthrough inspired me even more..thank you...
From zone 8B. I really enjoyed touring through her garden spaces. Some people have green thumbs… she has two green hands! I would love it if my backyard was just half as beautiful and lush with vegetables. She gave great ideas on her wire trellises and her arch. Great money savers. I think I’ll try them next spring. Or I might go ahead and try making them this fall so they can be ready next spring. Thank you for sharing this beautiful garden gift.
Beautiful use of the space. Also, raw okra is AMAZING! We grow it in Arkansas, and it rarely makes it out of the garden unless we have a bunch of it. Super healthy that way too.
Airam, well done on your abundant and productive garden! So wonderful for your family to be able to know food gardening,learn about nature, food, be together and eat from it. Wonderful
I thoroughly enjoyed the garden tour with Airam. She's made so much efficient use of her space and seems really passionate about her garden. I am now convinced I can do some backyard gardening...
Sweet garden! I love okra. 1st yr growing it. Took 4 plantings. I moved from 9b to 6b and it's been tough . Thx for the tour, really nnice! Love those gold/yellow squash. I eat them raw in salad or slice them about 3/8" think, put a little oil on them, sprinkle everything bagel seeds/spice on the, bake in my convection oven 400° 10 mins, sprinkle with parm cheese. Cook another few mins for cheese to melt. DELISH! Blessings, julie
Doug Fir lumber is fine for raised beds. Redwood is much more expensive. Try triple the price. Don't use the pressure treated lumber though. Its ok to replace the wood ever 10 years or so.
Re: Okra I'm fine with the slime (I attribute that to frequent exposure to Japanese cooking), and the fuzz for some reason. I don't like the fuzz on peaches or kiwi, so I guess I'm fine with it if it's savory. That or I'm just so used to the canned or frozen stuff that tends to peel them.
She has a lovely garden. If you tour come to northern california 9b. I have an awesome back yard garden. Some in ground some raised beds all hand watered takes 2 hours. No lawn. Hubby says drip wil be added this year. I'll believe it when I see it.
Love, Passion, Creativity, Knowledge, Energy and making Time, then you can a beautiful paradise like this too. Its absolutely worth it. Thanks for showing us around.
Incredible! I’m a San Diego native and now living in Vermont aspiring to grow veggies in front yard at first. Once large trees are cut down in backyard I’ll grow more veggies. Eventually will grow enough cut flowers for a neighborhood flower stand. Can hardly wait! Oops! Winter is just around the corner! 🌺 Love this video highlighting another awesome gardener!
What a inspiration i love gardning shirt space and lots of variety in her garden It reminds me of my home in kashmir all home grown veg fruit from our orchards milk cheese chicken Sweet memories of my child hood every thing in abundance When I came to england fruit and meat tasted like mud i did not eat meat or chicken for yr was used to pick and eat still try to grow in planters She is a inspiration my live and blessing
@@lucasthemycologist good tip, I just tried mulching my garden this summer, make a huge difference to the plants and my water bill, best investment ever.
So beautiful and totally in love with all the vertical growth! Yeah!! What a special garden tour. Thank you!!! Love hearing how it has evolved over the years too. Keep growing!
I’ve have been watching your videos since before your experiment with living a month completely out of your garden. I was so so impressed with that experiment and your tenacity to finish it. I got my collage age son watching you too. He has 2laundry basket gardens. He had more but asked his roommate to watch them while he was gone on vacation. When the roommate moved he begged for half the garden. I also loved when you grew your own wheat and made bread. Love your comment about going around the country. Inspired by your experiment, I started a small garden class that I teach every spring to help people coming from other climates and people who didn’t grow up doing gardens get started. I would be so honored if I could meet you. I would love to show you around my garden if you are interested in the Rocky Mountain climate. Thank you so much for your videos. As you can tell you have following here as well. 😊
I am loving all these garden tour videos. I'm in kansas, so obviously I can't grow the way that y'all do out in California, but this is so insightful and encouraging for companion planting and utilizing space! Thank you so much!
RUclips recommended this video to me, glad to see this content and channel for the first time. From my initial observation of the dialogue between Kevin and Airam, you can sense and hear their passion for gardening. It's pretty cool. 👍
This is amazingggggg. It feels so good watching this video such a beautiful and heart warming experience. Literally wish I lived in Cali. I would love to learn how to really garden like this, I've started small by growing ginger, and catnip, and I compost but I stopped because I haven't really grown anything since my ginger and i just planted my catnip i love in Louisiana and it's not yet cold so i let my catnip stratify in the freezer and then i soak it in water for almost two weeks. When i planted it, it had already sprouted, so crossing my fingers to see what happens. Man thank you for sharing this. 💗
My first raised bed was a salvaged cabinet that someone had tossed out. I used it for at least 6 years, until it rotted and fell apart. Now I have one made from salvaged bricks. I use it for all my herbs and some small veg. Like broccoli and lettuces.
Peppers love shade. That's why they're thriving. In nature, in the Americas (where pepper originate.. ) chili pequins for example typically grow under trees. I think people assume because they're hot they love heat? Not the case. Her garden looks fabulous
Actually, peppers do love the heat. I grow 150 plants per season and they are not shaded at all and thrive (even during 100 degree heat spells, and they do very well in drought conditions)
I can't wait to move to Cali so I can grow a second round of summer crops 😭 NY winters are getting old & this growing season in particular has had some very challenging weather.
Absolutely beautiful!!!! It's so wonderful to see such a variety of fresh grown produce in one yard. Thank you so much for sharing. Your definitely a green thumb.
Can you grow zucchini or squash type things over the edge of a deck so the grow downwards or would you need to put a trellis or netting for it to take the weight
I love going to community gardens to see what everybody's doing and growing. Just for tips and tricks. Also, talking to the people. People like to talk a lot....a lot a lot. :)
It would be interesting to know if she has managed do do all this inside of an HOA. Much of the suburban communities in southern California and Florida are all HOA governed making it some of the hardest land to garden in the country unfortunately. Amazing garden.
@@epicgardening I live in one here in SoFlo and the back yard is free to do so. Only the front has to adhere to the code. Check and see what your neighbors have in their back yards. ❤️🍀
The key is to read the fine print lol. I make due because the wording of "as seen from the street" so a fence allows the back to be better planted. I would also recommend doing a design that can be presented and if you can provide information from university's and government sources that show water savings that will help as well.
@@Bfamreef Oh Lord, your HOA is tough compared to mine then.😯 I guess you'll have to get "creative" as well. Good luck to all my fellow gardeners! Soften up those HOA's 🤞😁👍❤️🌷🍀
I think about how shocking it must be for people who don't live in California to see someone casually growing cannabis, when literally most people do here
I just mentioned this to my friends while watching! We live in a state where its not even decriminalized or sold medically. So to see someone's backyard garden have cannibis was a head turner for me. Ha!
i was hoping that they would touch on it tho bc im a card holder in oklahoma and its still new to garden culture here i know its a touchy subject with some of kevins viewers but...
hahah I grow a ton of massive cannabis so when I saw this pop out of no where in this video, it surprised me too because I did not expect it but cannabis is such a fun plant to grow because of all the variations phenotypes they have
Wow! I'm so inspired to stay with my very little own veggie garden at home in Huntington Beach! It is so rewarding to grow from the seeds! A great video! Thank you so much!

Doug Fir lumber is fine for raised beds. Redwood is much more expensive. Try triple the price. Don't use the pressure treated lumber though. Its ok to replace the wood ever 10 years or so.

She is an amazing gardener! She knows her plants and very knowledgeable in her gardener! Awesome!! Great video!!
I can't wait to move to Cali so I can grow a second round of summer crops 😭 NY winters are getting old & this growing season in particular has had some very challenging weather.
The weather was not only in NY challenging ❄️🌨
Absolutely beautiful!!!! It's so wonderful to see such a variety of fresh grown produce in one yard. Thank you so much for sharing. Your definitely a green thumb.
This was such a great tour! And I also learned stuff! I really need to get me some worms!
This video just popped up after a short and wow those pot plants at the beginning are growing so strong
hmm, I think a Plant Daddy/Garden Hermit garden roadtrip around California would be amazeballs
Oh my goodness....Airam!! I had no idea... SOO LOVELY!
Can you grow zucchini or squash type things over the edge of a deck so the grow downwards or would you need to put a trellis or netting for it to take the weight
I love how many ollas she's got in the beds. Life savers.
My favorite gardener!🌻 love her content, and all her gardening tips
I am a Papaya Grower!
And i love planting Papaya.
I follow her on Instagram but it was really nice to see a tour video! Thanks for sharing 💜
I love going to community gardens to see what everybody's doing and growing. Just for tips and tricks. Also, talking to the people. People like to talk a lot....a lot a lot. :)
It would be interesting to know if she has managed do do all this inside of an HOA. Much of the suburban communities in southern California and Florida are all HOA governed making it some of the hardest land to garden in the country unfortunately. Amazing garden.
Very sneakily
@@epicgardening I live in one here in SoFlo and the back yard is free to do so. Only the front has to adhere to the code. Check and see what your neighbors have in their back yards. ❤️🍀
The key is to read the fine print lol. I make due because the wording of "as seen from the street" so a fence allows the back to be better planted. I would also recommend doing a design that can be presented and if you can provide information from university's and government sources that show water savings that will help as well.
@@Bfamreef Oh Lord, your HOA is tough compared to mine then.😯 I guess you'll have to get "creative" as well. Good luck to all my fellow gardeners! Soften up those HOA's 🤞😁👍❤️🌷🍀
Love these contents' vibe!!! feel so relaxed and chill. Just like visiting a friend's garden farm.
LOVED THIS video! She has a very similar garden layout taste as me and gave me more ideas 💡 thank you! Totally following her on IG now
Using the old dresser is so smart!!
Really liked this episode, Kevin!
That plant is happy as can be with all those companions!
I think about how shocking it must be for people who don't live in California to see someone casually growing cannabis, when literally most people do here
I just mentioned this to my friends while watching! We live in a state where its not even decriminalized or sold medically. So to see someone's backyard garden have cannibis was a head turner for me. Ha!
I had to rewind back to when she mentioned cannabis to make sure I heard that correctly. I was shocked.
i was hoping that they would touch on it tho bc im a card holder in oklahoma and its still new to garden culture here i know its a touchy subject with some of kevins viewers but...
But then people steal that shit in my area it’s annoying AF
hahah I grow a ton of massive cannabis so when I saw this pop out of no where in this video, it surprised me too because I did not expect it but cannabis is such a fun plant to grow because of all the variations phenotypes they have
Wow! I'm so inspired to stay with my very little own veggie garden at home in Huntington Beach! It is so rewarding to grow from the seeds! A great video! Thank you so much!
I love that she is growing cannabis! Most of the gardeners i watch don’t, so i have zero good info about growing it.
I grow it, I don't use it at all but it's fun to grow. I gave all of mine away. I'm allowed four plants, I got lbs and lbs.
