- Welcome back to Chateau de Puy Vidal
In this episode, we learn to work in the Potager (Vegetable Garden) as our gardeners send us on a mission to pick out the veggies for this season. We till the soil, space our veggies and finally plant them. Join us at the very early stages of learning what it means to take care of the gardens of Chateau de Puy Vidal.
A very special guest arrives to the Chateau- Emily, Robert's twin sister visits the chateau for the first time all the way from San Francisco.
-------
These are the adventures of Julia, her partner Carolina, her sister Penelope and her parents Maruca and Robert; an American family taking a leap of faith and living out a long-awaited dream of moving to the French countryside.
Château de Puy Vidal is a medieval fortress turned renaissance Castle, and is located in the Charente region of Nouvelle Aquitaine, France. This channel is dedicated to our love of chateaux, old stones, magic, family and history. We share with you our life at Puy Vidal. What happens when your dreams come true?

I am still so overly enthralled by Puy Vidal, What magical timing it was for your family to find such a beautiful place. Couldn't even imagine being able to live my life in such a rare beauty,. Thank-you so much for sharing it, and sharing this time of your life...
I have to tell you that every one of your vlogs is an absolute feast for my soul. They are so calming and soothing, plus they are full of all of the things I deeply miss about life in France. Thank you so much xox
Thank you so much Paris 07. This makes us so happy to hear- we really try to capture that essence that we feel in the rhythms here in France to share with anyone who loves it too❤️
@@ladyofthechateau I think that you are completely successful in your endeavour ❤️
@@ladyofthechateau
With LOVE to all of you... all the way from the far ...
Far East 🌏 ❤🤍❤
I've been busy so I'm binge watching the last 3 episodes of the Lady of the Chateau SHOW
🤩🍿🥤🎬📽🎞🎞🎞💕
It's so adorable to watch the Twins walking in tandem & with the same gait too -
in the last shot 🥰 👫
Each and every video I am once again bowled over at how beautiful, tranquil, and well-kept your chateau and grounds are. Just stunning, and I can’t wait to see the garden progress through the seasons!😊
Oh, I didn’t want it to finish…I like sharing your experiences with you!!! Thank you for all that joy…❤️🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹🌹
What a magnificent place! The garden is like a fairytale fantasy picture.
Your gardens are going to be FABulous! Wait...they already are! You're so lucky to have your own fresh food grown by your own hands. Can you say jealous?? 🍋🍓🫐🍅🥒🥬🥦🧅🫑🍇🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷🥰
Any twin reuniting with their twin must be soul fulfulling. I can!t imagine how they must feel separated
You have the most beautiful gardens!! The chateau and patios, archways, details are stunning. You should produce tons of vegetables. Good job!!! xx
It truly is magnificent inside and out ~ and the icing on the cake is that a fun and loving family live there! ❤
I cant wait to visit Château Puy Vidal in person in 2024. I was delighted to hear Julia say the importance of stepping back from both the tech work and mandatory outdoor maintenance and spending time together enjoying the beauty, practical and psychological benefits of the garden by focussing on flowers, herbs and veggies. As always thank you for sharing your family and castle with us all ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a beautiful vegetable garden. I love to see the outdoor spaces I can only day dream what it would be like to be there. Just a beautiful place with a beautiful family.
I just genuinely enjoy the authenticity!
I absolutely love each and every member of the family… and the castle is pretty great too!! 😆
Thank you guys for filming so we can all tag along! ❤
Love all of your roses!!! The little tall purple flowers are blue salvia. They love heat and once settled in are pretty drought tolerant. Happy gardening!
Would Julia ever consider doing a cat eye liner tutorial? Julia always looks lovely even when planting in the garden 👩🏻🌾💐💄💌
Accidental gardening LOL 🤣 Love that! It will be so wonderful to get a full harvest from your plantings. I love the mix of colours you selected for your flowers. Simply beautiful. For no gardening experience you did very well. If you enjoyed all that - you will be addicted to gardening.
Your garden is already beautiful but imagine with all those flowers and plants will look magnificent!
What an idyllic spot you have. ❤
Well done….your potager is gorgeous….I am a avid gardener for 30 years and drooling over the garden. Next year instead of paying so much for your vegetables consider getting seeds and planting your own. You can start them earlier in pots and the seeds will last many years. I grow about 800 seedlings a year and it is so much cheaper….enjoy your bounty..😊
❤❤❤❤❤❤ yay!!! A new video❤❤❤❤from my favourite Chateau❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Merci d’être si soucieux de valoriser notre patrimoine et surtout de le faire vivre avec tant de courage, de talent et d’enthousiasme ! Vous êtes de formidables ambassadeurs de notre pays ! Grâce à vous, l’espoir renaît d’une France rajeunie, dynamisée, ouverte sur le monde …
Iam constantly in Awe of How Wonderful your Chatueau & Grounds are 🥰 I hope Emily enjoys her stay , such a Beautiful place with Beautiful people 💖
Loving the gardening ! Puy Vidal continues to be inspiring with fab people.
Everything is just beautiful
Bonjour my Puy Vidal loves my day is inspired I absolutely love gardening a forever passion don’t worry my loves it’s a journey lifetime of learning forming a connection to Mother Earth the best is visiting and seeing new growth then adorning the dinner table with fresh produce Roberts tomato sandwiches sound delish😍👌I love visiting the garden centres oooh we’ll take that those bags of soil don’t forget that adorable climbing rose💖Puy Vidal graced with all that garden space welcoming the bees birdsong a paradise indeed 🌟So adorable Robert and his twin sister united once more come let’s tour the Chateau and the grounds Thankyou my darlings always a pleasure I love how grounded and real you all are enjoy your aunts stay have a fabulous weekend Enchante💖💖😘😘👌👌🌟🌟
I don’t know what time of day you are planting the veggies but you want as much sun as possible. Once your blue berries get estimated you will probably want to mesh tent them. Or your birds and wildlife will enjoy. Tulle from a fabric shop is good and wildlife safe. Birds and animals get stuck in the more open fencing.
Welcome to the gardeners club! It's addictive in a therapeutic sort of way.
It’s amazing how different we all are. Having grown up in a rural area in Alabama, there has never been a time when we didn’t have a large garden. From April to June, my hands are in the dirt and I love every minute of it. I’m thrilled that you’re finally getting to experience growing your own food. I’m excited to see your reaction when you eat what you’ve grown and the satisfaction it will bring you! Your potage garden beds are beautiful and I can’t wait for updates!
Next time you buy plants, water them well before you plant them. You also can add water and root stimulating fertilizer in the hole then add slow release organic fertilizer on top. Be sure to add compost each spring to the beds or top dress with it. Also, for the annuals like the salvias, if you cut off the blooms at planting they establish roots sooner. They will reward you with more blooms later. Lovely garden, good luck!
Oo very good to know thank you!
Your garden is so beautiful, I would DIE to have so much space and sunshine! As a novice gardener myself, good luck to you all!
It is a gem of a place and it is in good and loving and caring hands!
You honestly have the most beautiful chateau with the most glorious grounds! Also, France is agreeing with all of you! You all look great!
I absolutely love gardening 🥰 it’s hard work but so rewarding 🍃🌸🍃
Can’t wait to see that gardens when all the veggies really start to grow…nothing like picking things right from the earth…great job everyone……..Donna in Toronto
Enjoyed this! What a lovely look into your life at your chateau.
When you go to the food markets looks for the "echaillions", they aren't a shallot nor an onion, they are a hybrid of the two, purple and long..some areas call them "cuisse de poule", as that is their shape, I use them in salads instead of either onions or shallots and EVERYBODY loves them!!!...perfect french salad dressing 1 teaspoon Lemon juice or red wine vinegar (with the mere) 3 tablespoons olive oil, a 1/2 Moutarde fine de Dijon, salt and pepper..stir, then put in your salad composition and extras then toss.....I personally use the lemon for Mozza /tomato/basil meals, it's lighter and best for noon...you can also add in cukes....
Ooo delicious!!! We will definitely try that!! Thank you Kevin
How exciting to plant your first garden and learn the seasonal growing process. Your gardens are magnificent. The estate grounds look amazing. It is always lovely to have family arrive and share our homes. Blessings to you all.
Breathtaking✨💓
I hope someone captured 'The Twins' walking together with Troubadour frolicking around, It will make a beautiful portrait or painting 💜
Yeah! Gardening! Enjoy!
Wonderful late spring video. It's been a horrid cold winter in California too, I have yet to be able to put out my plants. Girls, please wear gloves when working in the soil. Earth leaches all the moisture from your skin, plus it's easier clean-up when you're done working. Another commenter mentioned tenting your plants to protect them from rabbits, birds and bugs. YES!!!! You really must do this. With long, bendy poles you create a series of support arches along your planting row, then drape netting over it, securing it at ends and sides. The more hoops you install, the better the support for the netting/gauze and the neater your garden will look.
Love Going To Garden Centres To Buy Plants and Putting Them In Pots. The Garden Is Looking Fabulous. Xx 😘😊
The chateau and grounds are just beautiful. I love to visit through your videos-thank you🥰
You will love gardening and your guest will enjoy a stroll through the gardens as well.
It is so much fun watching "Papa " turn looking more and more french 😊
The formal garden is very smart and beautifully maintained
So nice to see the developments! Great job with the gardens! You will master it soon!
Once more I forgot I was watching a You Tube video and thought I was on the BBC. Puy Vidal is like heaven and all you pretty ladies with your melodious relaxing voices. And of course Troubadour the real star of the show
What a beautiful and tranquil home you have. I so admire what you are creating, it is so relaxing to watch your vlogs. Long may you reign xxx🥂🍾🕌
gosh! your home is a wonder! hope you’re all settling in together its a feat.. but what a dream home!! filled with beauty to spur you on your way ❤
Beautiful ❤
Your dear Aunt is right! It is more magnificent than you can ever imagine 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Love all the organization and planting. Everything looks beautiful!
Wow, that garden of yours, in fact the whole chateau is absolutely magnificent as your Aunt quoted! Job well done!
Good work ladies! Lots of water & fertilizer! Remember that you should be making a compost pile to help develop your soil!
Coming from the Netherlands and having a little holiday home near Montbron, this is a delight to watch. So nice to see all the places you go, and i’m saving all the places I haven’t been yet in my google maps. Thanks for that!
Love your gardens ❤
Beautiful
Oh, I did get a kick out of you patting in a simple marigold, with all the drama of the maze and formal gardens in the background.
🦢🌹🌻🪴🐞Love your garden vlog - always wishing for more at the end of each vlog. Happiness is...cup of tea and sitting down for your new episode.
Great video, luv the music at the end !!
Loved this video. I love hearing all the birdsong!
**** Grow one line of basil then a line of tomatoes**** the bugs and insects that eat tomatoes hate basil so this will keep your tomatoes “safe” from pests… and the best salads have tomtoes and basil with olives and fetta cheese❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are doing such a good job “team” and just think how this will flourish and the benefits❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Evelyn!! That is great to know!
@@ladyofthechateau my father was the one who grew up on a farm and he knew all about all those things.
Another was ‘plant when its a full moon’ …. His vegies were all big and healthy.
He also put sheep manure in a big bucket then put water in it so 25% sheep manure the rest water. Stir it up then put a lid on it then place in shady cool place. Next day put the water into watering containers. And water the bottom of plants that are needing help to grow, don’t water the leaves just aim at the bottom root area. Water in the late part of the day an hour before sunset. This water will soak into the plant.. it should be watered every second day with this manure water mix
The sheep manure can be done again with the water in bucket, for about a fortnight. Then just plant the sheep manure into the soil and then cover with soil then plant some roses its great for them❤️❤️❤️❤️
You guys did a great job planting. My husband Jim and I had a garden when living in NJ. I lost Jim 4 years ago and I live in my home state in Kansas City, KS. So you girls gave me the bug to plant tomatoes, but, in pots since I live in an apartment. I found a spot to plant my zinnias. The apt.
manager said I could plant, I think they like it because they come up really good and are very pretty. I'm known as the 'flower lady'. I hope my tomatoes grow!!♥️♥️♥️♥️😘
Chive flowers are delicious on a salad ! ❤
Fingers crossed that you have a great crop off vegetables and fruits from your garden and the flower's look beautiful see you all next time take care, 💕🌼🤗
I see a lot of chateaux , but very few have a garden as beautiful as yours! Enjoy ❤
Everything is looking lovely. You have quite a large garden for novice’s. And the work hasn’t even started yet. Weeding figuring out what critters and insects are eating your crops why one plant is thriving and the next is half dead. But you know it’s all part of the process and very rewarding in the end.
Looking forward to seeing what comes next.
What beautiful grounds snd the garden bedd look like a dream!
You might want to put a mesh tunnel around your broccoli, if you have cabbage, that as well so the bugs don’t get it and lay their eggs. Your garden looks great! Looking forward to the garden updates… and that cooking vlog! 😊
Pumkins need a a lot of fertilizer, very hungry
Get your father an auger dril bitl for planting, like laura from garden answer!
Haha what a great idea! We’ll go check it out!
i love ur popa so much.... he reaminds me of my dad who passed away when i was 14
Such lovely people.....from watching the videos of Mam and Dad....they have definitely worked hard to rear beautiful girls......your Dad and Mam are treasures....such a lady an such a humble gentleman....I do think that a lot of people will say yee are privilaged when compared to families who can barely feed their children...but from watching yeer Mam and Dad.....I can totally believe that they understand other people's difficult lifestyle.....
Happiest Gardening really beautiful color combination!💐😊
Happy Pride #pride 🌈
Thank you so much Tony!!!! 🌈🌈🌈
Puy Vidal is magnificent jewel . I'm so happy for you to get your hands in the soil, to connect with the earth of your new home. ❤
What a stunningly beautiful garden! Of course I knew this, but to see it in all its details is wonderful. You are all indeed very lucky. And maintaining it will be no mean feat, I am sure. It.s been a dream of mine to have a « medieval style » garden with box-trimmed beds, smaller than yours of course. City dweller….. not sure I’ll ever achieve that, so meanwhile, I’ll just enjoy yours vicariously! Thanks for the wonderful vlog!
You are going to do fine wait and see it will be fine. I love your videos and your family.😊❤
What a great video I love to see your family so united and so loving to each other and now your auntie is there. Wow that’s so that’s so great. Have a blessed and beautiful life every day of your life and your beautiful new home and in a beautiful country, I pray one day to visit with my family.
Bye for now

Love seeing your beautiful home
Growing pumpkins is great. They are easy to grow snd you can cook (bake or boil), puree and presrve the flesh. It is a substitute for fats in recipes. 1 cup of pumpkin puree is equivalent to 1 cup of oil. It is great in pies, sweet breads, cookies and loafs. It's also great in soups. 🙂🇨🇦
Bonjour c'est magnifique et, en plus vous allez devenir autonome et manger de bons produit du jardin .votre père me fait penser dans son comportement à Woody Allen ,il est très drôle .Bonne continuation
Filming and editing is beautiful except I am always surprised at the abrupt ending. It feels jaring. I don't know anything about editing but maybe a slow fade out or your sunset before the cut. ??? Everything else is beautiful and fun to watch. Looking forward to seeing the garden grow and you eating the food.
Thank you for the note- we will keep that in mind
❤❤❤❤❤ by the way just wanted to say “great job team” on the hard work in your plantation of the new variety “herb” garden, the rewards will be plentiful❤❤❤❤ I hope you get to plant freesias (all the varieties) near your windows or your outdoor dining area, so you can enjoy their fragrance, especially on summer nights when you are chilling, watching the stars with a nightcap❤❤❤
Hi I think that was wisteria that was trying to grow in that bed that your mom is going to dig it out and put the Rose. You mentioned that there was wire already on the wall and how strange that was but I think that’s because that’s wisteria already in that area. Maybe it got quite damaged and it’s taking a long time to come back but I believe that’s what the leaves look like I could be wrong.
Yes, it looks like wisteria growing.
Bonjour 👋,
You should be proud of yourselves. It will be nice to be able to eat your own vegetables 😋 😀. Have great time this year at the Château. 😉🥰🥰
love
Tenia un buen rato o que no escuchaba la palabra caput, a mi me gusta mucho, me encanta cuando mamá Maruca dijo- me recuerda México mucho tiempo pero lista la credencial, y LUEGO cuando dijiste mira mamá , si por favor de cuando en cuando incluyan una conversation en español. Sería lindo. Las plantas y todo el jardín se ve hermoso ya veo todos las verduras de las que hablaban. Bienvenida a tu tía Emily.
You ladies are channeling your inner Oliver Douglas. Impressive. 👏👏
Love your whole family. What a beautiful place to live out your life. One day, my husband and I will go to meet you all in person. For now, I'm happy to visit with you all through your vlogs. God bless you all always.
All your hard work will produce a beautiful, fragant and delicious garden! 🥰
Gorgeous garden plans. Going to be exquisite and lush for indoor and outdoor enjoyment. Sweet music choice. Nice to see your French sunshine 🌞
Your garden defies description…..superb…and just wait til it starts producing…..whether it’s flowers or food…..and it will all taste so much better. Gardens thrive on love and you all have plenty of that……will your aunt want to become part of the Puy Vidal gang I wonder 😋
I see a lot of great gardening advice here. I hope you all have a very good growing season. It looks like you all are off to a great start. Congrats, Maruca, on your ID card. Welcome to Aunt Emily.❤
Just in awe of all of you! Each of you have worked so very hard to actually be living at YOUR OWN BEAUTIFUL CHATEAU! So proud of you all!
My God, the flowers! I would have blown my food euro’s for a month. It is just amazing what fresh flowers do for a house!
And your sweet Papa’s Spinach dish! Wow! Such a pretty plate and table he set. France just gets in your blood, and suddenly everything has to be beautiful 😻
The garden will give you hours of pleasure plus fresh picked vegetables.
***The Fresh flowers in the Chateau are simply lovely!
Hi fabulous garden you will have lovely vegetables I’m sure
Enjoy your weekend xx❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful...and soothing.
Thank you so much Johanna! ❤️
i really love your style of videos. I'm happy to be able to follow the progress of puy vidal.
Don’t worry about how to garden - it will all fall into place and when your plants start to grow and produce bounty you will be so excited. I’ve learned about plants & flowers from my mom and grandmother. It’s an inherited love I think. I love your family and Puy Vidal is the prettiest chateau in France. I think the gardens are what makes it such a divine place. Keep us informed of your veggies & herbs & I wish you lots of luck! Cheers from Alabama! 🥂
❤ Thank you for your interesting videos 🎉 3:16
All of us gardeners were where you are right now. You’ll have many successes and some failures. It’s wonderful that you had your gardeners to help you.Does your department have some kind of resource like a county extension office in the states?
how fortunate you are to have this awsome garden to plant legumes greens and fruitplants/trees and of course all the space for flowers. Gardening , growing legumes/ herbs is such a delight, connection with nature makes us feeling whole and healthy. A treat to watch your vlogs, thank you
