Your pink Chard row is just gorgeous. My Yakon is still growing too, very different from previous years. Never seen the plants this big. It seems they love this years weather. My J Artichoke finally flowered some weeks ago. I hope this translates to a good harvest. My Oca flowered also for the first time this year. Again, I think the weather played a major role. As always, thanks for the tour and update. Your piece of paradise looks very beautiful and lush for this time of the year!
So glad to here you garden to growing abundantly for you Nneka 🙌 look forward to hearing more about your harvests. The pink chard is so striking isn’t it… I think that’s why I kept sowing it, I love it for it’s ornamental qualities too. Glad you enjoyed the tour 💚✌️🌿
Khu vườn của bạn thật tuyệt vời ,cây trồng trong vườn của bạn được chăm sóc tốt cây trồng phát triển tươi tốt quá ,cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ khu vườn với mọi người cùng thăm quan .
I was amazed and surprised you can grow taro and get them to mature.! Where do you get the roots from. I remember seeing them growing near the river in kenya. My mother ate taro and sweet potatoes for breakfast. She lived to 97years!!!
Hi Margaret, glad our taro brought back good memories for you 💚 I don't think ours grow as big as they do in the tropics, we have tried to work out which ones are short season varieties. We bought some in african/indian food shops and asked about varieties and also bought a few more special varieties online. You might like to watch this video here about them ... we will probably do another soon when we harvest again 👉 ruclips.net/video/jzk2zs5DvTc/видео.htmlsi=KsUaCRtpL1Z6rWbX Thanks for watching ✌️🌿
The year of the Yacon! Your beds are gorgeous, so lush in October, something I aspire to. The curved, contoured beds add to the asthetics, its a really well designed space. Then the double use of the Bean area, outstanding. I will be very interested in seeing how the Elephant Garlic / mustard get on as they both mature.
Hi, Appreciate your kind comments about our growing area 🙏 you have a whole new blank canvas to work with too - thats very exciting 🙌 Yes, we hope the Yacon harvest looks as good as the plants do! Just a few days after filming and there are loads of Elephants poking their noises through now. The mustard will get killed off with heavier frosts, adding to and supporting the soil/soil life in the process ... the aim being healthier soil = more resilient plants. It may also help to repal Allium leaf miner too 🤞 Thanks for watching ✌️🌿
Looks beautiful. Well done. I’m in Queensland Australia and struggling with lack of rain. So I built swales and a ground water harvesting system that is working well for my food forest. Wish I started sooner. It can be done. Thank you for your inspiring videos. Hopefully mine looks like yours in years to come. 😊😊😊

Beautiful and peaceful space, fresh air. Harvesting your own vegetables and fruits helps you relax and heal. Thank you for sharing your wonderful moments with everyone.
Thank you for the tour, looking great and abundant, the weather has been favourable for you as well. Nice to hear the carrots are growing on the fine wood chip, makes sense especially if moist as carrots need that moisture to germinate. Thankfully in Australia we don’t have the carrot fly, you covered so you should be fine otherwise in a high garden bed because they can’t fly high. It’s been warm in Sydney, second year in a row, things going to seed earlier, onions especially but fruits are plentiful , experimenting with late garlic planting in pots whilst ones started in February in garden beds are still growing fine, plus using the onion root and replanting them in trays just because I can, they grow greens quickly, but I want to see if onion bulbs will appear, have planted 2nd year onions just for more seed, which was successful last year too😊
Hey Rick, your lucky not to have the root fly there - its a pain!! 🤣 I've done so trials this year using the raised beds, which I hoped would help, but we need to go higher again (i knew that might be the case - but thought id try anyway) we are going to try a taller bed in a dif area maybe next season, as we didn;t want any more high where our existing ones are. Love that you are having fun with your alliums and trying new things 🙌 Thanks for the great message - happy growing until next time 💚✌️🌿

Stunning looking row of chard. My yacon is also growing very strongly above ground this year....fingers crossed that translates to a correspondingly larger sized tuber harvest in the next 6 weeks or so. I've also been harvesting outdoor cape gooseberries for the last few weeks (first time i've grown them) and they've been a successful experiment....lots of fruit and taste better than the shop bought. And the leaves are soft as velvet.
Hi Tony, honestly I'll grow Chard just for its ornamental value from now on I think 😃 its vibrance is enlightening. Glad you Yacon is looking good too. Wow outdoor cape gooseberries too 🙌 You really are a pro with your door growing, we tried them outside once and it wasn't very successful, I feel they would need a nice shaltered spot? They are so delcious, we snack on them all the time and Dan has them on his breakfast every day... I froze some last year too, they don't hold they're form (as with most soft fruits) great for use in smoothies or a coulis. I also make a lovely slightly marmaladey jam with them ... which reminds me!!! .... They are a real top producer for us at this time of year too, a great gap filler. Can't wait for you to see our Trombone Courgettes in our next video too 😃 Spk soon 💚✌️🌿
@@freedomforestlife my garden is somewhat sheltered from the worst of the weather, but the plants dont get it easy at all. i suspect as soon as we get a proper frost the cape gooseberries will tell me about it. Until then i'll carry on enjoying the harvest. My tromboncinos have had a rather average result this year. Not too many summer courgette sized croppings, as many of them dropped off and withered before i got to them. Similarly, with the large storage fruits, half of them have detatched from the plants early and still green and i've got them on the windowsill now trying to cure and change colour. There's still a few squash outdoors on the plants and they might ripen up nicely if we get a couple more weeks of reasonable temperatures. Still a highly worthwhile crop to grow and one for me to do better with next year.
Beautiful garden, thanks for the tour. Just one question, you mentioned the bags of green waste by your old potato patch. Can you tell me where you got the green waste in bags from please? Thanks
Hi Elaine, its Compost in the bags by our old potato patch (not actual green waste) that we bought in pre-made from our local green waste site. We buy compost in when we haven't got enough of our own all in one go. Municpal waste compost is A LOT cheaper than what you buy in store. Does that explain? Sorry if that wasn't clear in the video 💚✌️🌿
Hi, we use the no-dig method, adding a thin layer of compost once a year and some beds we woodchip mulch too, which breaks down into beautiful loamy soil overtime. Clay base below. Glad you enjoyed the tour 💚 You might like this video too for a look at all our different growing areas 👉 ruclips.net/video/Ya7okBqw8lY/видео.html Appreciate you watching ✌️🌿
What are the benefits of planting mustard with your garlic? I don’t think you mentioned it in the video, apologies if you did. Most of my garlic was wiped out by aphids this year, as were the bulbing onions, spring onions, potato onions and garlic chives, the chives regrew after cutting back hard. I’m in Australia.
Hi, the mustard is grown as a cover crop for soil health/more roots in the ground and here in the UK the frost will kill it off before it runs to seed and that will give back to the soil also. It may also help to repel certain pests like the allium leaf miner too (hopefully) 💚✌️🌿
Can I ask why you still grow garden hedges between the growing areas? Would seem like wasted space and something else to take care? Is there an advantage or it just that you like having them?
Hi Graham, great question - I can see why this would seem unnecessary at a glace... There are many reasons though, they create windbreaks, we chose evergreen because they are also there for privacy in quite a few areas (and dan loves evergreens too) and it is also part of the style/design of our land, having lots of different 'rooms' rather than one big open space. We are also blessed with having more space than we can manage really, so that is not currantly an issue for us. Also the wildlife LOVE the hedges too 💚 Appreciate you watching and commenting 🙏✌️🌿
HI Jack, Dan sourced our original cormes from African/Asian food supermarkets and spoke to people in the stores about where the different varieties came from where poss. We saved our own stock for re-plant this year, and I think he may of added one more special variety that he bought on ebay. Check out this video here for more info and we'll be making another one when we harvest soon too 👉 ruclips.net/video/jzk2zs5DvTc/видео.html ✌️🌿
Not for a few years now we haven't - even in the very cold winter 2 years ago ... we've found they survive well once established ... we do mulch them with a thick layer of woodchip. Variety is important too 💚 Thanks for watching ✌️🌿
Seguo da un po ,il vostro canale, e ho constatato che coltivate molte varietà di verdure e frutta. Io da qualche anno coltivo il CHYOTE (SECHIUM EDULE) i primi tempi come annuale, poi ho scoperto che piantandolo in un terreno riparato più aggiungendo in autunno abbondante pacciamatura di fieno posso coltivarlo come perenne aumentando di molto la resa. Pensate di coltivarlo, anche voi in futuro? Io abito in Piemonte a 364 metri sul livello del mare. Saluti dall'ITALIA 🇮🇪
Hi, thank you for your lovely message, we did have 2 chayote seeds this year which we germinated, but neither grow well and never made it to be planted out. This is great info to know for when we get to try them again. Great to have you with us in Italy 🙌💚✌️🌿
