I love the look of the latticework. It’s so pleasing to the eye. I can’t wait to see the plants climb up the bamboo poles. 🌱🌿🌱🌞
I know right!!! I’m so excited as well!!
I have to tell you, I tried pasta carbonara for supper tonight mainly because I had seen Meg make it. I had some whole wheat pasta and was given some duck eggs and was trying to make something using both. It was delicious. I added kale and snow peas from the garden, along with some bacon ends, and it was a whole meal. My husband loved it, so thank you Meg!
Yum on the kale and peas! Glad you liked it!
@@TheHollarHomestead oh yeah, what a taste fest!!
Omg.. Buggy is so precious..
Is buggy the little girl actual name?
@@lynntheokie8370no. It's a nickname. Her name is Lilianna
@@clairecoutts7832 thanks
Ben's talent for spotting an opportunity (the bamboo) and Meg's artistic eye resulted in a beautiful trellis!
I just love Buggy's fashion sense
Buggy's pigtails are adorable🥰
That’s exactly what I thought! She’s the cutest lil tomboy ever!
When we harvest our garlic, any bulbs that are “iffy” are peeled and frozen in jars. If you take a clove or two out 5 or 10 minutes to thaw a bit before you need it, you just mash it and put it in your cooking. Also we make Lebanese Garlic sauce - which is basically garlic mayo.
You are correct the bamboo wall looks so good and I can't wait to see the gords hanging. Good job Hollers!😊
🙋🏼♀️🕊. Lillie is so interested in what ever is happening. Taking part enthusiastically. So sweet, love watching her ,and the boys grow, 💞🕊 you both are beautiful parents.. blessings to your family 🍀💞🕊🍀💞🕊🍀💞🕊
Dearest Hollar Family-It just brings old Grandma Jenny so much joy to watch you working together, being real and adorable, seeing your farm grow- dang what a fabulous orchard/botanical wonderland, God’s Own Garlic! I’m a RUclips addict and y’all are my favorite people-just love you so much’❤
Ditto!!!!
Love how little Miss Buggy has her own style, she must love choosing her clothes every day. You guys are great parents and your kids are amazing
You sure have dependable garden help with Brett and Corbin, they're good workers. Have a Tuberous Tuesday!!
Remembering when Meg was pregnant and sitting out planting your 1st garden amazing what has been learned and the soil improvement that you have achieved shows in this garlic harvest...kudos
You have inspired me. I have bamboo in my backyard and my neighbors have a ton in their yard. I am going to cut some down dry it and build my own fence to block out the neighbors from seeing what I am doing in my yard. They have called the city on me for having pigs that I don't have, they called and said my new shed was not to code that was a 6 month fight and a bunch of other stuff. I can't afford to buy a fence so thank you for the inspo!
Darn neighbors!!! Bamboo blocks everything! Lol
You are seeing the fruits of your labour with producing your compost Ben. You have improved your soil no end.
Every time one of you says “grow”, including Buggie, I follow up with ‘and be fruitful’.
Meg probably already does this, but with the "hurry up" garlic just peel the individual cloves and then freeze them. For recipes I'll use a grater and just grate up the froze cloves instead of chopping.
Never thought of that. I diced all mine. It is nice to have frozen garlic. Grating would be no big deal and a great idea. Thanks!
That’s exactly what I do and have wondered cloves all year long. Great suggestion! ❤
Does the garlic smell up the freezer? Do you store in ziplock freezer bags?
@@gretaknebel8495 Yes your ice will taste like garlic. I keep mine in my meat freezer. Not my kitchen freezer. So if you don't have an extra freezer....beware.
@@gretaknebel8495 Jars work better than plastic at containing the smell.
I've been binge watching your videos for the last couple of days and I cant get enough of your channel. Meg is such a hard worker. Were so looking forward to finding some land so we can start our journey. You guys stay blessed and keep expanding that land. Stay safe and god bless.
Megs placing the criss cross bamboo is wonderful.
As a suburban gardener I’m using a wire shelf in the garage to dry my garlic with a stand fan, the garage back door open and the garage door raised a touch for ventilation. The garage has never smelled so good.
Your garden beds soil is improving year after year. Great job !!
Love love love the latticework, it is going to look awesome with vines!!
The crossing of the bamboo turned out wonderful. I think you may have started a new tradition on your homestead
May every harvest be as bountiful as your garlic!
The bamboo latice looks lovely, teamwork makes the dream work.
Your orchard is divine, my favorite spot on the property.
Your corn is tasling, oh my, that grew fast or at least it seems like to me, yes you folks had a wonderful crop of garlic this year, congrats!
My friend in Northern Minnesota processes quite a bit of their harvest by grinding and freezing in small packages for easy use in cooking.
Love the Garlic Harvest!
That's a beautiful garlic harvest!!! Every once in a while I'll hear someone say they hate garlic. I'm thinking their cooking must be pretty bland. I use garlic in almost everything, definitely meats scream for garlic. I even slice a clove in my veggies sometimes. Garlic lowers cholesterol you know!! It's so good for you!
Meg is right changing the bamboo looks awesome
OMG!! what a gorgeous look those bamboo poles make! Can't wait for those plants to fill it in. your yard area looks better every year. you have now become an example for us all to follow.
Congratulations! The garlic are huge! Nice job!!
The bamboo wall looks great. Can't wait to watch the plants using it!
Trellis looks so good!! Excellent garlic yall!! Sister your hair is so cute! 🎀👧🎀
Great idea on the lattice trellis, Meg! It looks so nice. I harvested my first crop of garlic recently - it's so easy to grow!! I don't think I'll ever not grow it from now on. Y'alls garlic haul was fantastic!
A great garlic haul. Love your bamboo fence. I like the new arrangement. Good work all of you. 🌻🌻💕💕
The fruit trees are looking so good! They have grown so much. We would love yas to do a walk around the orchard video to show us what trees etc you have planted. Beautiful video 🌻🌸
This was the first year I planted garlic and was happy for getting 40.
Wonderful to see so much garlic grown on your homestead. I have two rows about 12 feet long. I should probably check to see if it's ready.
That bamboo system is so cool, very pretty.
That garlic is amazing. Wow!!!! Love that bamboo trellis.
Blessings, 😊🙏🏻💕🇨🇦
That crisscross bamboo looks awesome! Reminds me of seeing something similar somewhere, where they did espalier fruit trees on. I'm sure Meg will enjoy looking at that from the sink every day.
Your daughter is so amazing what a great helper and singer she is. Love seeing her help with everything, teaching young is the key.
Love the bamboo wall. It's going to look great with the vines on it!
Asian gardeners always use bamboo stakes to grow vegetables on. They put them criss-cross on an angle against a straight bamboo stand. The vegetables grow hanging down below the leaves under the trellis. So easy to pick and protected from the hot sun.
Buggy has a cute hairdo. You two are so hard working. Admire you for it. Wish I was your age again. I’m 70 and definitely slowing down in my gardening. There’s nothing better than working out in the garden. Good luck to you
The lattice bamboo is so nice, I like it! Beautiful garlic, mine is so small... Buggy is stilling the show again ❤🤗❤️
Your little girl makes a bad day turn wonderful!!
Garlic smarlic; can I just say "Awe weee" about that cute little skirt and cowgirl hat on my favorite farmeress?☮️💖🙏🤗
Thanks for putting Buggys hair up. It was so cute and way cooler.
Ever thought of giving Buggy a small plot for her own garden? I reckon she would love it.
A wild garden that would be, and I'm sure a great success. 😊
That garlic looks amazing! That is the one thing I forgot to plant this year. Oh well! Won't forget again. Loved the video!
Those little pig tails on Buggy!!!❤️
Great crop of garlic! Love the lattice look of the bamboo. Looks like your corn is jammin' also.
Great job revitalizing the land. Have you heard of Jerry Baker? My brother started following, had incredible soil, grass. I used his remedies on my neglected yard…holy cow.
The crisscross trellis looks Sooo Cool!! Good eye, Meg!
That was hilarious, daddy puts that baby in the cart, mommy puts her foot down. Y’all are awesome
The 9foot crisscross wall is sweet,and the garlic is huge wow y'all rock.stay safe
I love the criss-cross supports. Great idea, Meg!
I suggest that you take the garlic cloves that have split open and course chop them and put them in half pint jars with olive oil covering them. You will have chopped garlic at hand for cooking and garlic flavored olive oil for dressings and marinades.
I really like the crisscrossed trellis. I can’t wait to see it covered in food.
Last but never least, Buggy is too adorable for words. What happy childhood memories she will have. All your kids are so blessed to have you two as parents. 😊
Omg could little Miss Buggy get any cuter !!!. Love the little piggy tails ❤❤
Hey hey thank you so much for not putting music on covering up the beautiful sounds of the birds. That was beautiful
That's alot of garlic!!! The trellis looks so awesome. Great video.
Hello!!! Yes the cross cross bamboo look is AMAZING! Meg you have a wonderful eye! Praying that your herbs are doing well, and bees!!🥰
I don't know why I watch this family.....it might be because of Bens great advice and tips on the garden, or watching someone else do all the hard work!. It might be how much fun they all have together, even the working together. It might be Meg in the kichen and all that delicious food (even though she won't do a cook book! 😂) it might be just that adorable "Buggy" and the boys....I told you..I don't know why....I just know I LOVE them all (and wish they posted every day) even though I know they are brilliant at sharing their time with us.
Thanks Hollar family! 🤗
Ohhh Yum... I've got garlic envy😊 Nice job guys. 🧄
The trellis looks amazing! Buggy saying “ I have a slug” dad saying “ we’ll put it down” 😂
Got our garlic dug Sunday…best we’ve ever had. Must be the year for garlic. ❤
Fantastic harvest of garlic!! I hope you do a follow up video on how you preserve the garlic. I’m assuming you preserve it more than one way.
Love the wall! Great idea Meg ♥
Just a thought we took a couple 2x4's and took a chicken wire and made a box with it a couple saw horses and put the garlic through the holes of the chicken wire hang it from your ceiling if wanted or just the saw horses!
Meg is a genius! That bamboo trellis looks FABulous! 🤩
Wow nice garlic haul
Buggie ponytails soooo adorable
Love the wall 🌺 and the farmer baby
So impressed with the criss crossed bamboo...and that garlic is awesome. hats off to my fav u tubers.
Buggy is The Hollar Family´s Princess. You guys are just her servants. :) Have a nice day love from Sweden
Oh the smell of garlic on my hands is the best smell ever. Love the bamboo idea. Tomato’s growing, oh do we need more sun.
Perfect timing for the garlic, mine looks so small compared to your harvest!’ Got our first needed rain in eastern NC here . Definitely needed it !!!
Wow your garlic looks awesome and yes I agree salt, pepper, garlic.i like how you integrate your plants in the orchard.
I learn something new from you Ben & Meg and yes Meg the bamboo trellis looks good can't wait to see what it looks like filled in.
.I see your corn is getting tall any ears on it yet?
Buggy looks so cute in pigtails.
Blessings to you all. 😊🇺🇲
The ears are coming along!
Love the criss cross wall! Looks so pretty!
So excited to see your food forest grow!
My goodness what a lovely video to share. And such a joy to see the bounty of everyone’s labor of love. Thank you!
That trellis if amazing 🤩 🎉❤
Another amazing day on the Hollar Family Homestead!!! Blessings on your family and farm Kiddos!🥰🌻🐛💕
Love that you didn't add music. Got to listen to the birds and outside noises 😊
Wow that cross crossed cane looks awesome. I said wow,😊 when you panned over to the cane!
Love the crisscrossed bamboo! I agree about the garlic -- we planted about three thousand cloves last fall. Some was intentionally planted at half spacing, to be pulled as "green garlic" for our low FODMAP family members. In a few days, we will harvest our scapes (also a low FODMAP food), and in a few weeks we'll get our third and final harvest, when we pull the remaining garlic.
You had an amazing garlic harvest!! I grew much more than last year and mine are drying as well. That bamboo wall will look amazing as the vines grow up it.
The bamboo looks beautiful! Can't wait to see it 'dressed' up in green.
Happy Father's day Ben🙏💕🥰👍 were just gonna be putting in garlic for next year here in BC🇨🇦
My mouth dropped open with the criss cross of the bamboo. Wow.
Oh my gosh, Meg! Genius moment. That lattice is beautiful.
Love that XXXX trellis. ❤. The Garlic makes my mouth water.
Garlic is my #1 seasoning
Love the bamboo trellis
Wall looks real nice. Your little girl is an angel.
Buggy singing, “Boom shaka laka Boom shaka laka..” in the background @4:11 is adorable. 😂
So true that you 'can't have 70 degree weather all year because the tomatoes won't grow' - we live in a coastal region that has an average temp of 60 and we only get a few days a year at around 80 degrees. I can't grow tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, melons or many other things to save my life! But I'm not complaining. Many other things do well here and we can grow somethings year round. I hope your family and all of your viewers enjoy a productive growing season!
Your Garlic harvest is amazing! and the trellis looks beautiful!..
Awesome love watching you and family ❤
All your children are brilliant and good looking, however that girl is a treasure!! Hugs from San Antonio, Tx
I had a home built swing set with a top rail at about 12 ft off the ground. After my kids were grown I added cattle panels across the back side and trellised my luffas there. They thrived. It was the most fantastic shade spot in my whole yard. I predict the same with your wall of gourds. I can’t wait to see it fill out. Great work!
Thank you for showIng all that garlic! Now I feel vindicated with the 32 pounds that I planted last fall. We use a lot (fresh, minced, and powdered). We also share with my sister and include garlic in gift baskets (wedding, house-warming and holiday). The rest gets replanted. Kudos on your garlic. Yes, it looks terrific! Best wishes from Kate in Olympia, WA - 6/20/2023.
Now thats a beautiful trellis!! I think im gonna make friends with my neighbors 3 blocks over and ask to cut some bamboo and drag them to my garden…. It would save me about $100 on cattle panel and t-posts!! I think I pulled my garlic too soon but trial and error is the name of the gardening game…. Love love you guys!! We all learn little bits from each other and use what works for our own gardens big or small they are all awesome!!! Happy growing everyone.
