    I’m always amazed by the amount and quality of food Eve produces in her gardens to feed your family. I was born in 1960 and was raised on a dairy farm. Seeing all those potatoes you had stored reminded me of a very special memory. Back then there were times when all we had to eat was potatoes. My mom worked as a cook on a river boat so she was gone a lot. One of my favorite memories from back then was after the evening milking was done my father would fry up a big bowl of potatoes and my father, my two siblings and I would gather around and eat out of one bowl.

    You need to add boron to the soil to prevent warts on beets. You can buy it in the laundry isle, turn it into the soil. 1 ounce of boron to 5-600 square feet of garden. You can also use it to get rid of ants, mix 50/50 with honey, and leave drops along the trails they use, In a week or so they will be gone along with and aphids they are farming.

    This video is more valuable than people realize. One, you can show memories of family. Two, a record of pests and problems with crops on file you can re-watch. Three, dates of when harvested. Four, which variety worked best for which crop. Five, weather for that time. Six, storage ideas, work or not work. I could go on and on. Love these videos!!! Amazing work!!

    Quite a few years ago, I planted carrots in a garden box at my house. I had really heavy clay soil. I also planted a row in a large garden area that my parents had the day before. (Very sandy soil) I managed to dig one up at my place and it was about as big around as a pencil and maybe three inches long. When we dug the ones in my parents garden, we dug down about 5 or 6 inches so we could get hold of them and pulled them. They were huge. There were some that stuck out of a bread bag, not including their tops. I had never seen such big carrots in my life. My mom asked me what type of seed I had had because she had never seen such big carrots. I told her it was just regular seed. To this day I have never seen such big ones again.
    It looked like you had a pretty good harvest. You should have lots of good eating if it stores well.

    When my wife and I where young and had a truck garden we where very lucky to be able to leave most of our root crops in the garden as we don't have the ground freeze but cold enough to keep most root crops.We all so had a longer growing season than you folks.My wife is from the Bearing sea area where theYukon river meets the Bearing sea and my Dad had a saw mill at Moose Pass as a young man I worked for the PDO in Whitter.My wife and I left Alaska in 1966 and have a small farm in Southern Oregon.WE are now in our 80s and have stopped farming as we can not do the hard work we watch you guys do.We made all our own food products.We won't tell you what you are doing right or wrong as part of the fun in the hard work is learning but you guys are doing a excellent job.The hard work for us was processing our food.Not all Yupiks live in Alaska.

    Watching your videos brings a smile! I say this in a good way- I am glad to see that you don't have all the answers. Sometimes it seems like by now I should have it all figured out and know all the answers & it is good to see that you are still learning and improving the way you do things too. For example the sand and the washing vs not. I think our whole lives we continue to learn and improve on things. Y'all are doing a great job! I also really like your ending. Doing it your way is the best way for you!

    • @PR.Hobbit
      @PR.Hobbit 15 дней назад

      Yes adapting and learning ... the best way to learn is to TEACH. These guys are great teachers.
      I was thinking the not washed in saw dust might encourage them to grow again -- perhaps not. They say leaving carrots in the ground will sweeten them but I tried it and the rodents ate them.
      Rabbits actually aren't suppose to have carrots.

  • @BlueRidgeVirginia
    @BlueRidgeVirginia 19 дней назад +2

    So fun to watch your harvest in early November!! Your cabbages are fantastic, especially that one green and red mottled cabbage (too gorgeous to eat!).
    Here on our Virginia homestead, we harvested the last of our ripe tomatoes yesterday! We are Zone 6B so having such a late harvest for tomatoes was a first with harvesting red tomatoes on November 8!! We also plucked all of the remaining green tomatoes -- many were on our Romas. They'll ripen indoors.
    In our greenhouse, lots of lettuces and Asian greens are growing, along with broccoli and cabbage. This will give us late Fall crops.
    Knowing where our foods come from are so important...as Eve said...the home grown foods are priceless.

  • @utahjag
    @utahjag 18 дней назад +3

    Don't know about warts on beets because I don't like beets, but, My Great Grandparents had a huge garden and root cellar. The family helped them with the harvesting and storing of the root veggies and I remember Grandma telling us the most important thing was to try and not disturb the outside of the potatoes and carrots. Just tap off the dirt and NEVER wash them until you are preparing them to eat. This makes them last the entire winter and into the next year crisp and fresh. If you wash them, you expose their skin to the elements which will allow bacteria in and will rot them much faster and make them soft, no bueno. Loving the new show, much better than the fake drama on Discovery. They did some stuff well but you guys do a much more organic and enjoyable version of filming your lives I really enjoy. Thank You So Much!

Thanks for sharing and I’m jealous about how well your garden grows compared to ours. It was a pretty dry summer here in Maine and found that the raised beds work best for us. Which means more raised beds to build for next year’s plantings. Sawmill here I come. Thanks again!!!

    It's nice seeing different styles of storage, I was taught to dry the carrots after brushing most of the dirt of, and store them in dry sand.
    My aunt and granny used to store them in old wooden teachests but I store them in the same style of fish boxes you used in the video and love them as you can stack them 3 or 4 high depending on how strong you are feeling that day and they don't squash what is in the boxes beneath.

    Your gardens are so neat. It reminds me of gardening with my grandparents.
    I grew a garden on my own for a few years. My best years were when I planted my garden intensely and companion planted.
    Intense: plant root crops below vertical plants. I also planted my basil around my tomato plants. The spiked of the tomato vine irritated my skin. If I rubbed my arms with basil the spikes didn't bother me.
    Some plants act as natural insect repellant. I planted my corn and squash on hills. I staggered the hills offset from the neighboring rows. A row of corn, a row of squash. The squash detered the worms that eat the ears of corn. Plus the squash supported the corn while it was growing from being blown over due to high winds. The corn detered the Cinch bugs from the squash.
    I planted my onions around my peas and green beans to deter bugs.

    When I was a kid, we always buried our carrots in sand. In the spring most of the carrots were just as fresh as if we just dug them up. we never reused the sand. My dad had us dump it into the garden which he would rototill back into the dirt and got fresh sand for the fall. So the sand should work well.

    Thanks guys for another great video. It's always cool watching other people living their best lives. Eve your amazing with all your gardening. I use fine sand around my plants to protect from slugs. They hate the feel. Eggshells also have great results. I recently heard that sheep's wool as a mulch also works. I'm just adding it to my dahlia beds now ( Here in NZ. Spring is in the air) so we will see. I think if you can source it it's a great mulch that could be spread over the entire garden to beat weeds if nothing else. Anyway we will see how the summer goes with the wool mulch. 🙏👍
