    Yay for spring, all things green, lots of seeds, and all new life! The guardian tree is beautiful, and definitely alive and thriving. Katie, I’m always excited to see your flowers and garden grow, it’s always so beautiful when everything is in full bloom. Greg, leave her alone about how she seeds, she’s fine, and the chickens will probably eat half of them anyway. 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 Love you guys!❤

    Should have mentioned the Guardian tree. Trees do seem to have a voice. A sound recordist fitted a needle microphone to a tree in a U.K. television documentary and recorded the tree which seemed to be singing. It was thought to be the sound of moisture being ingested and spread up the tree’s ‘capillary’ system. Large trees such as the Guardian take up many many gallons of water a day. Trees seem to have differing sounds. Thought you may be interested. Regards, Phil, Suffolk, U.K.🇬🇧

    You might want to check on the wood chips and using them close to the house or buildings. It's not composted and though it'll keep the weeds down since it draws oxygen from the soil as it decomposes, it'll also draw carpenter ants.

    I like the filled & wider area next to the house. I think Katie’s method of planting will work as long as you thin the veggies once sprouted. I think we should have a contest.. Greg’s garden patch… methodical & spaced, vs Katie’s wild fling patch & see which bears the most/best veggies😂😂 sorry Katie caught a bug☹️ nothing worse than Spring/Summer colds. Nice she has a great mate to nurse her back to health. 😎😷

    Hello.Grass can be sown by hand or with a seeder.
    In the first case, it is best to divide the area into equal parts and sow the same amount of seeds with each of them. The cross-flow method is especially recommended. First, sow the seeds in one direction, and then perpendicularly. This will ensure that the grass sprouts evenly.

    One thing you could have done is mix a lot of grass seed in with the wild flower seeds...if the wild flowers are like most they only live one year also if you have much pine needles in that chipping You chipped not much will grow in that. Look at the bottom of a big pine tree how much grass grows under the tree, just lots of pine needles. Hope fully things will grow for You..any way looks good.

Greg, I could see how you enjoyed and absorbed the sunlight. The Guardian is such a tall, impressive tree. You’re so good to take care of Katie when she’s not feeling well. Katie, I’m so sorry you’re feeling bad - I wonder if you have a good case of allergies? You did so much work with the dirt, planting, and racking the wood chips. Whether a cold or allergies, it doesn’t matter when you’re not feeling good. Your hair is so pretty, long, and shiny. Great videos as usual….Take care

    I plant the same way as Katie but it’s the wrong way, I’m too lazy. But here in Florida I already have tomatoes and peppers 🌶️. My Butternut squash is blooming, fingers crossed. I think I should be growing the squash in the Fall because Summer is probably too hot. I want to make so many suggestions but you guys know what you want, when it goes to the yard. After all the camera doesn’t do it any justice, the naked eye is a better perspective.
