The funny neighbor said "Somos só dois a comer / somos poucos" = "we're just two eating" (meaning, that's more than enough for them two) and then a classical pt moment were our elders will go and say how small their agriculture products are this year (no matter how big they are, they will always say they're smaller than the previous year). But let me say, I was super impressed with your pt 🚀
I obviously have a way to go with my Portuguese. I thought he added jokingly that the two of them are skinny (so two courgettes are quite enough for them),which seemed to insinuate 'unlike you two' , and then said courgettes gave him the sh#ts. But now I know better ...🥴
Those "missed that one" oversized zucchinis are great to slice lengthwise and use as "pizza dough" - hollow out a bit, fill them with sauce, meat/veg, top with cheese and bake. Delish!
That culture of sharing home grown produce between neighbors is very common in the interior of the country. It's like you said - some people have more of one item, others have more of another, so they share it so that as little as possible goes to waste.
Wow your Portuguese pronunciation is bloody amazing. I’m extremely impressed. He replied this year they are weak, much smaller than previous years. Kudos on your Portuguese.
Carrots seedlings ara painful. An old method i learned from my father is to cover with a wood plank and check regularly. The plank will ensure good contact between seeds and soil while maintains moisture well uniform. It's very simple and effective. One you start to see the germination, remove the plank and continue as normal.
I saw a youtube video of a guy sprout them in cornstarch jelly and then he piped them into the rows when they had germinated. I thought that was ingenious.
One cultural note. "Siesta" isn’t really much of thing in Portugal (except maybe in some towns in Alentejo)... People not being outside doesn’t mean their having a regular nap, most of them will probably just be doing chores inside or just sitting for a while, and if they are old maybe rest when they feel tired. In many small rural villages you would probably see older folk just sitting right next outside their door under a shade talking with their neighbours.
Cut the watermelons into slices and freeze - tastes like popsicle! Also works great as a cold treat for chickens on a hot day :) Yes please to a coridal video! What a lovely amazing produce garden, and just the right size for two people to manage. Your garden videos always inspire me to :) thank you for sharing!
One thing I've learned from others here on RUclips about asparagus, is that they tend to take over your beds. A couple places that I researched said that you need to put them in a designated bed, so that they don't take over everything else you have. One person put them in a designated raised bed, and once you plant them, you don't ever have to do it again. They come back yearly without much fuss. :) Love your garden! thanks for sharing it with us! :)
So glad I found your channel. Sitting here at my table in Texas watching and just thinking how much fun it would be to hang out with you two in your garden. Drinking Kylie's cordials of course! Great garden tour you two! Can't wait for the next update!
The weed beside the corn is a variety of Crab grass. Keep pulling it out or it will take over. At least it is easy to pull as it has a central fibrous root system. The easiest way is to lift all the leaves around the roots & pull the entire plant out. You shouldn't have to dig around it unless the ground is as hard as a rock.
Love your garden. We are planing a move to Portugal from Ontario, Canada for next year. We are looking in the district of Leiria, Cardavale. My husband is Portuguese, from Alentejo, born and raised. I’m Italian but also quite fluent in Portuguese. Can’t wait to move back there. We are currently house hunting. Trying to decide exactly where. Any advice would be appreciated.
Your pronunciation of Portuguese is amazingly good!!😀 Your garden is huge and everything looks amazing ,wow ,so rewarding I’m sure!!Love watching you guys are amazing and 😆
You have a very good portuguese accent, congrats! The portuguese farmer has a very thick accent, it should be particularly difficult for non-natives. So, here's some translation from 40:13 on: the portuguese farmer said "enough, we're just two eating [it]" (chega, somos só dois a comer). Then he repeated it. And then he said "we are few" (somos poucos). At 40:25 he said "this year they're not good" (este ano estão fracas). Then he said "last year they were large, this year they're small" (o ano passado estavam grandes, este ano estão miúdas). Then he said "but, my friend, that's what we have" (mas meu amigo é o que cá há). Then he said "there's nothing better" (não há melhor).
Your portuguese is quite good, Guy! Very proud of you! Portuguese is a difficult language to learn. Your neighbor was saying that 2 was enough because there are not that many people in his house. And that the courgettes from last year here much bigger. I love following you two and I'm glad you are enjoying our contry.
Wonderful garden tour Kylie & Guy. There is nothing better than eating your own produce which you know that chemicals were not used, Would love to see you making any type of cordial or any interesting (bottling/canning) ideas with those BIG courgettes :) You are both looking happy and relaxed must be the climate. Better than NZ winter for sure.
Such an impressive garden! It thrived in part because of the large amount of compost you used to enrich the soil, you provided sufficient water, and the third major component was your hard work! Although you did research as needed, you started with a solid knowledge base and you experimented to learn more. As you refine your preservation/storage techniques you will become just about self-sufficient (though indulging yourselves occasionally for little store-bought extras). The long growing season there allows harvesting of some fresh food year-round. Anyone who sees your success and thinks they can just buy a plot of land and live off it should watch your videos from the beginning and understand that it's not that easy!
I'd love to see how you make your cordials, especially the cucumber one :) Roots and Refuge Farm channel has some good tutorials on getting carrots to germinate easily if you want to try again next year. She puts a wooden board over the sowed line to keep the moisture in. I love fresh carrot tops so I like to grow at least a few. I added Celeriac to my garden this year (root celery) and am super excited seeing them grow - though not nearly as well as everything you guys are doing this year. We haven't had much rain in Germany either and I used cheap compost. Lesson learned (hopefully). Stay hydrated!!! :)
All my family, for generations, except for my own generation ironically enough, are from places near Sertã. My dad passed away 2 months ago. He must've been the age more or less of your neighbor. So, to hear that pure accent of his really made my day. Great job you're doing. Stay strong.
My grandmother rose before first light, tended her garden every day, harvested every morning, canned and processed straight away and then had an afternoon siesta. Pick squash small -- taste better! And, I think you want to plant the asparagus in a patch
Tomato-leaf tea works wonders for flea beetles and white flies. Soak tomato leaves overnight in water, drain off and use the tea in a sprayer. Great for many chewing insects; doesn't harm beneficials.
I am watching this February 2023 and can hardly wait to start on my garden this spring. You have inspired me to try the no dig method on a few things. I have a tiny garden with really poor soil (rocky riverbed) so I think the method will work really well. You two are fun to “hang out with”
Wow!! A lot of work, but you get wonderful food. I'm not sure how you manage it all!! The building, renovations, digging, planting, weeding, pruning, harvesting cooking, preserving!! YES I'd like to see you make cordial and how you use it. I think it is a sweet flavouring for water or spirits but not sure!! Hugs from 🇨🇦
Try Chinese stir frying the lettuce leaves with a bit of oii, garlic, cooking wine, pepper etc...so glad you installed the drip system which appears to be the superior watering system in your outstanding gardens. Your gardening may be the standard for ex-pats pretty soon!!!
Great harvest Guy and Kylie. So happy you are enjoying the fruits of your labor and sharing with others. Your Portuguese sounds really, really good. Keep up the good work. 🙏 👍🤗
actually I have just comprehended why your channel is giving so much confidence) difference with you is you guys talk to each other, share the talking, it feels so so great safe seeing you both participate in all the moments and like juicing all the seconds of the journey. taking videos together doing and discussing is so involving and does not give me a feeling of being left alone for any of the task like on many other channels I see. Secondly, the feeling from your approaching of doing things is doable and bold, like you can get anything and do slowly but surely and enjoying every bit. feels like a good treatment ))) thanks guys
Every year there is one crop that is overwhelmingly productive this year it was lettuce so we send people away with bags of it and a kohlrabi. You folks are loaded with your hard work production.
Just returned from a 10-day vacation to find some huge courgettes in my garden (eventhough someone was meant to use them in our absence). Made courgette cake with some of it, an absolute family favorite 😊
Great video, beautiful garden, healthy fruits. The idea with getting up really early in the morning - like six-ish- and having siesta during the high temperatures in the day is excellent!!!
That is an amazing garden! Or "horta", in portuguese. :-) Interestingly, in portuguese we have two words for what seems like only one word in english, "garden". In portuguese we have the words "jardim" and "horta". "Jardim" is more a kind of flower and grass garden, for leisure purposes, and "horta" is a vegetable garden, like yours.
What your neighbour said is that the potatoes last year was larger than this year, I’m Brazilian but the Portuguese accent is stronger then the Brazilian one 😊
The flowers of the pumpkins or squash and zucchini are also edible. Are you going to do mushrooms? Different types of corn, lettuce, herbs etc. ? Fennel, celeriac and eggplant would possibly grow lovely there. In OZ there is a citrus bush that would grow nicely there I think it’s called citrus caviar? Or something? Loving the garden. Love the humour and laughter even more.
Wonderful Video Absolutely beautiful and prolific garden, How amazing is it that the 2 of you have done all of this in 20 months!!! BRAVO for you. The squash flowers are amazing sautéed in a pan with little olive oil. I also stuff mine with some nice soft goat cheese. You can also cook the squashes that are very small with the flower still attached a nice sautéed dish as well. I keep thinking you need a small milking goat to eat your extra food and provide you with some nice milk. Thank you both so much I really enjoy your channel.
A good way to stay ahead of your courgettes: pick them when the courgette is about 2 inches long and still flowering. Then dip the whole lot ( courgette with flower attached) in to egg then flour, then pan fry in butter…. Lovely!
Love, love, love your garden and all that you are growing. Just in case you are interested in trying to grow some carrots in quantity, you might want to check out the Quebec Homesteads channel of their germinating carrots in a cornstarch slurry. An addition to their technique would be to put a strip of plastic the length of the row to keep more of the moisture in. We actually used this technique on our family farm. Happy planting!
Fab tour guys!! Carrots ~ grow in plain soil with only addition being some sand. No fertilizer, manure or compost. They will grow long and straight and prolifically!! Along with the rock melons, we’re the others the Honeydew variety perhaps?? And don’t forget to mound your asparagus up to get lovely long spears. Great work 👍 👋 🇦🇺
Try the three Sisters method growing corn, with peas and squash, the squash suppresses weeds, peas provide nitrogen. Edit: another vote for a cordial vid☺️
Hot peppers can be pickled. They are great in tuna sandwich, salmon paddies. To make them crunchy, presoak the sliced round hot peppers in sugar solution sweet to your taste, just cover to the top (I used stevia/swerve powder solution) for 3-4 days in refrigerator. Put in a jar and fill it up with sourkraut left over liquid. Love them. Typical Asian condiment. Awesome garden 😀. An exchanged community.....Love it.

But let me say, I was super impressed with your pt 🚀
I agree. I was very impressed with your Portuguese and you nailed the accent as well.
Agree. Very impressed with you pt accent 👏👏👏
I obviously have a way to go with my Portuguese. I thought he added jokingly that the two of them are skinny (so two courgettes are quite enough for them),which seemed to insinuate 'unlike you two' , and then said courgettes gave him the sh#ts. But now I know better ...🥴
Yeah, agreed! Your Portuguese accent is on point, great job :)
@@jul7291 you really do have a way to go with Portuguese. He didn't say any of that, not even close. But keep working on it!
Those "missed that one" oversized zucchinis are great to slice lengthwise and use as "pizza dough" - hollow out a bit, fill them with sauce, meat/veg, top with cheese and bake. Delish!
Ohh, that’s our kinda thinking. We don’t have an oven but I’m sure it will still work in a baking dish in the bbq 😃
"Red Hot padrão peppers" sounds like a Portuguese tribute band...
😂🤣😂🤣
That culture of sharing home grown produce between neighbors is very common in the interior of the country. It's like you said - some people have more of one item, others have more of another, so they share it so that as little as possible goes to waste.
Wow your Portuguese pronunciation is bloody amazing. I’m extremely impressed. He replied this year they are weak, much smaller than previous years. Kudos on your Portuguese.
I was also extremely impressed with his pronunciation.
Really enjoyed this video, and your harvests are amazing.
Yes, please a cordial video would be interesting too. Thank you. 👍☀️😎
Would love a cordial lesson. Strawberry lemonade too!
Yes please, on a cordial video. This was a really special video. Thank you.
+1 vote for the cordial recipe!
Who knew you could make cucumber cordial. Very interested to watch that video. Another great walk through your organised garden.
Carrots seedlings ara painful. An old method i learned from my father is to cover with a wood plank and check regularly. The plank will ensure good contact between seeds and soil while maintains moisture well uniform. It's very simple and effective. One you start to see the germination, remove the plank and continue as normal.
Came here to say just this. Takes half as long for germination, too.
I saw a youtube video of a guy sprout them in cornstarch jelly and then he piped them into the rows when they had germinated. I thought that was ingenious.
Dad always said keep wet burlap over the carrot seeds. Check every day. When the shoots appear take the burlap off. 🇦🇺🎸⚡️🤘🏿🤘🏼💋❤️
One cultural note. "Siesta" isn’t really much of thing in Portugal (except maybe in some towns in Alentejo)... People not being outside doesn’t mean their having a regular nap, most of them will probably just be doing chores inside or just sitting for a while, and if they are old maybe rest when they feel tired.

What a lovely amazing produce garden, and just the right size for two people to manage. Your garden videos always inspire me to :) thank you for sharing!
When we were actively growing our own food a few years ago we used to give some of our surplus to the local elderly day centre.
Hard to watch... I'm getting jealous :-) Wonderful!
I vote "YES" for the cordial recipe! Neem oil is a good more natural way to control white flies and such. :D

Your garden is huge and everything looks amazing ,wow ,so rewarding I’m sure!!Love watching you guys are amazing and 😆
With all your renovation video's, I tend to forget that you have a huge garden as well.. It's doing great! Congratulations.
Hey guys great video, a little tip for growing carrots I use a cup or so of sand mixed with the seeds to help separate the seeds .

Large Zucchinis make great Zucchini Bread or Cake. , can use either green or yellow ones. Ninette Bird- The Caribbean Wife - Tx
magnificent vegetables
as a Portuguese myself I am BEYOND impressed at your accent Guy. Holy cow! you sound more Portuguese than I do! Impressive!
Awesome video as usual. I vote for a cordial making video. 👍

In the dig garden it’s best to dig down and loosen the dirt at least a foot. Roots will do better.
THANK YOU!! Always entertaining and enlightening.
Tomato-leaf tea works wonders for flea beetles and white flies. Soak tomato leaves overnight in water, drain off and use the tea in a sprayer. Great for many chewing insects; doesn't harm beneficials.
Ohh, this sounds interesting, will give that a try
Cold water? Boiling water? ❤️
I think it’s fantastic how you all share your produce, makes good neighbours. Best wishes from Australia
Awesome! Your hard work has produced a healthy bounty.
Yes to cordial video please,one hell of a garden 🇦🇺👍
Cordials yes please just been looking up receipies
Honey dew the light green melons by the look 👍❤️❤️❤️🙏
I live in the city of Setúbal, waiting for my retirement to do the same as you and eating healthy food from the land
That irrigation system is tempting me! I need something to keep my plants moistured. Amazing garden, congratulations 👍

The garden videos are so nice and relaxing to watch while working . No hammer drill noises and its super peaceful.
Don’t worry, more hammer drilling coming soon 😂
3 sisters would be lovely in the corn patch😊
Fascinating! Kylie, please show your cordial making.
Lovely prolific garden.
Great video !!
It shows you your way doing the raised beds works and keeps water in.
Yes cordial recipe!!! What a beautiful garden!
I have garden envy ! Your garden is gorgeous, I love it. Ya'll did an awesome job this year. Keep up the good work.
Garden is looking great! Hope there's some rain in your future.
I watch your videos 3 and 4 times. Really enjoy them. Thanks.
Yes on the cordial-making video question. 🙂
Wow!! A lot of work, but you get wonderful food. I'm not sure how you manage it all!! The building, renovations, digging, planting, weeding, pruning, harvesting cooking, preserving!!
YES I'd like to see you make cordial and how you use it. I think it is a sweet flavouring for water or spirits but not sure!!

Beautiful beets.
Yes please! A cordial how to!
Impressive garden. Lots of work but well worth it.
Sieve the soil finely for the carrots and add something like 50% sand to it...and your carrots will be perfect.
Also cover the sown rows with a board/ fence paling to keep moisture constant. Around the 2 week mark, check regularly for germination then remove.
Every year there is one crop that is overwhelmingly productive this year it was lettuce so we send people away with bags of it and a kohlrabi. You folks are loaded with your hard work production.
Bela Horta!!!
That weird shape tomato, is called “coração de boi”.
Belo sotaque! Parabéns.
Just returned from a 10-day vacation to find some huge courgettes in my garden (eventhough someone was meant to use them in our absence). Made courgette cake with some of it, an absolute family favorite 😊
I'm with you Kylie, Rockmelon it is 😃 I'm envious of your lovely sunshine, it's been such a cold WET winter here in Sydney.
Great video, beautiful garden, healthy fruits. The idea with getting up really early in the morning - like six-ish- and having siesta during the high temperatures in the day is excellent!!!

they are growing eggplant, in Europe we usually refer to it as Aubergine
I never realised you have soooo much planted! 😃
YOU ARE THE BEST.
Cordial video, yes please. Thanks!

Love, love, love your garden and all that you are growing. Just in case you are interested in trying to grow some carrots in quantity, you might want to check out the Quebec Homesteads channel of their germinating carrots in a cornstarch slurry. An addition to their technique would be to put a strip of plastic the length of the row to keep more of the moisture in. We actually used this technique on our family farm. Happy planting!
Yes please, would love to see your cordial drinks.

Hot peppers can be pickled. They are great in tuna sandwich, salmon paddies.
To make them crunchy, presoak the sliced round hot peppers in sugar solution sweet to your taste, just cover to the top (I used stevia/swerve powder solution) for 3-4 days in refrigerator. Put in a jar and fill it up with sourkraut left over liquid. Love them. Typical Asian condiment.
Awesome garden 😀. An exchanged community.....Love it.
And yes to the cordial video
Yes cordial videos please, I enjoy your preservation videos
