    So much hard work but every single thing you do is so worth it! What a beautiful, tranquil space to sit and have a cup of tea. I love that you have so many different "areas" including a pond, shade garden, veggies/fruit, firepit, greenhouse, and sun-loving plants ALL within a smaller fenced yard! Just wow! With all of that said, my favorite part is your consideration for the hedgehogs, insects and, of course, Blondie

    It's amazing how much difference just a year makes, your garden is looking so gorgeous! It's honestly all thanks to you for giving me the belief that I could do it, that started me off on my gardening journey...and well, now I'm a little bit addicted 😄 It has become the most therapuetic thing for me, I now have flowers and an abundance of wildlife that visit. I enjoy it all so much, so, thank you! xx

    At 67 y.o. in u.s.a. northern lower mich. Been gardening all my life, sewing, crafting, woodworking, you name it I do it. I found this video my fav so far. Your little garden turned out so beautiful. You made lovely use of every inch. Loved this video so much, so relaxing and inspiring. I feel our gardens are good for our soul. Love your sewing ideas also. I'll be watching. Love so much seeing the younger generation interested in nature in every way. You are just so adoreable. Great video, thank you!

    As always you are such an inspiration. Whether it's in the garden or in the house, I get inspired by you. Your garden is so beautiful. I agree with your idea of doing your garden how you want and not what others say. I had bulbs start blooming this week that I had almost given up on. 24 gladiola bulbs in pastel colors. Every couple days a new one blooms and I'm surprised by what color it turns out to be So far, peach, white, pink and lavender. I split my bearded iris last autumn and they went crazy this year. My veggie garden suffering a lot from a family of groundhogs that are eating them all. Everyone keeps saying to shoot or poison them and I'm just NOT going to do that. I'd rather share this year and put in better fencing next year.

    I love what you've done and am especially glad that you share the work that went into it! When you're just starting to plan a garden and then start planting, it looks bare and you wonder if it'll ever look good & you're proof that it does! I'm impressed you're so young, single and own your own place! Keep up the good work :)

    Excited to follow your progress! I'm also starting from scratch here in Scotland. I recently moved house and inherited a "garden" that's entirely covered with old broken slabs, just laid on soil. I've had privacy fences put up, started lifting the slabs to find heavy clay soil. 😫 So off we went to the stables to collect some bags of well rotted manure to start improving the soil.
