I saw the wheelbarrow comment. I also use buckets but at my age I use 2 buckets half filled to balance the loads. If I have a huge amount to move then put filled buckets into mu garden wagon...holds 5 buckets filled. My garden wagon is quite old now, 30-40 years with a wide wheelbase, and has move everything for me from concrete, 600 pound boulders for the pond and yerd, sand, wood for the stove, soil, oh so many uses. I could not exist without it.
Hey Sarah, you probably already know this, but you can use an empty spice jar with a shaker top insert when planting these tiny seeds. I find with as much as I plant, it is faster and much more uniform in spacing than using my fingers. Can't wait to see your crops growing. We are also living the keto lifestyle and feel so much better than we used to. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
I wish they could hear us as we yell at them while we watch. Also start at the furthest tub, so that when you are tired at the end of the project you have less steps to take.
This last spring I mixed a variety of lettuces, radishes, Swiss chard, rutabaga, spinach in a bowl then just sprinkled it in to one of my raised beds. It was AMAZING! Highly recommend trying this.
I have used Nappa cabbage in stir-fry for a noodle like texture. I used the top part for that to get more veggies in the food for the kids. Just an idea.
I love MIgardener seeds. Only place I order from. I put in an order on the 1st of this month at their 2024 seed kickoff and got them in the mail by the 4th. I was like a kid at Christmas opening the envelope to look at them all.
No broccoli/cauliflower/cabbage this fall/winter? Whenever I planted lettuce, I would buy a bunch of varieties of green and red, and then add in some arugula and frisee. I mixed all the seeds together and sprinkled them all to sow. I loved the surprises of everything growing together and the rainbow of colors in my containers. I don't garden now, so I avidly watch to see what comes up in your containers!
Consider selling those buckets. On the east coast, we don't have anything like them for growing. You could wrap them in plastic and slap a shipping label on them. Nice and easy!
Maybe this has been answered but do you no longer use Baker Creek? I'm homebound so live the lifestyle through you going back to your beginning on RUclips. My how this site has grown in sharing the lifestyle and your gained knowledge and willing to share. I'm 81 now so I'm a couch gardener.❤
I thought you might have emptied all your buckets into that pile so that you get a mix or life and add all your cold compost (rabbit bits) to blend over winter.
My Brother-in-law raises beef cattle and we managed to score about 18 of those mineral tubs. No green house here in Michigan yet, but really looking forward to using them next Spring. BTW I truly enjoy your RUclips channel. May God bless.
Thanks for sharing with us Kevin and Sarah, that will be an awesome winter garden that you two just planted. Looking forward to seeing you harvest it before long. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.
I'm kind of surprised that you're not including other things like spinach, kale, swiss chard, and radishes with your fall planting. I love your sprinkler system in the greenhouse. Can't wait to see how everything turns out.
MindyCollier, I am curious what growing zone you are in to grow radishes and Swiss chard? Do you have a heated greenhouse? My green house is NOT heated and I have had no luck sprouting in Winter... it dips too cold at night often 20 degrees... most plants either go into hibernation or die at those temps.
Sara and Kevin, ( not sure if I spelled your names correctly 😊) you two sooooooo inspire me! You both work so well together, sharing the workload as do my husband and I. I truly enjoy watching your videos. There is a feeling of true love and appreciation for the work, each other and, especially, Abba God that you both just glow with it!! You are a beautiful couple, and I simply love your hair, Sara!! And, Kevin, your gentle voice is so refreshing to hear! You are a truly Godly man, and it is absolutely evident that you love your wife. The same goes for you, as well, Sara. I also love your t-shirts!! Blessings to you both!! And…thanks for sharing!!🙏🏻📖⚔️💥🥰
Do consider planting a whole mineral bucket chives and letting the bulbs mature over the course of a year or so. Chives take time compared to some of the annual produce, pretty easy, and are incredibly hardy. Place them in a little shade and in the path of rain run off to enable them to naturalize about the property, under roses, in orchard areas, in horticultural plantings, and more. They do great things for the soil, worms love to live under and around them, aphids and a number of other pests shy away from them, bees love them, and if youve found a place they are happy in you only need to water them every 2 to 3 weeks during a drought.
Sara and Kevin, My friends and mentors, just sending you a whole bunch of Love and serious appreciation!! Just sent you a whole new group of new foundlings , home stead families who will Love your teaching and farming, milk cow family members as well!! I am thrilled for them that I could introduce you two to my dear friends! What exciting times to see my dear ones grow and learn from you guys!! So, love love love you and thanking you again for your service to others through the Lord’s work, and gift of cultivation, preserving and happy hard work of farm life in general! It IS the future, living in the Traditions of home stead life❣️ God Bless my dears, I’ve NEVER missed an episode in all these years from your beginning of this beautiful journey! Hugs and appreciation ❣️
I just spent all day yesterday planting seeds and transplants for my winter garden and several tubs of different types greens for my chickens and ducks to enjoy as treats through the winter. Great minds think a like!!! Love your videos!!!
Have you tried the quick growing kohlrabi ready in 45 days? We use it for potatoes too and love it even more than turnips. What about broccoli and cauliflower or cabbage? We raised them in our unheated hoop house successfully. We've even done celery and then FD extra. We're keto and love them all.
🫶 thank you for displaying the varieties that you will be planting in your fall garden to the see the name of the variety and the picture helps a ton in my decision making for my own garden.
I'm looking outside and thinking I should do some planting, too. Then I remember it's mid November and I live in Minnesota. We're supposed to get into the +60's this week which is really unusual. I might have to plant a few turnip seeds indoors to see how they do😊
I'm growing all winter in GA. I'm not growing anything you are though. I was going to go with rutabaga, but they didn't come up..0 germination. I'm growing broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, onions, elephant garlic, Swiss chard, Brussels sprouts, parsley and persistent weeds, mostly rhizome grass.
You need a little tractor, a small little tractor with a little wagon or something and you fill up a bunch of those and bring them in and dump them and go back so that you don’t have to carry them! That’s how I got a hernia! So, please be careful😊
Fantastic! I wish in northern Michigan I could do a winter garden but even with my greenhouse- I cannot - unless I heat it. I’m not willing to pay for that extra electricity. I’d rather keep my freeze dryer going.
All lettuce is good, but I read that green has more vitamin and minerals than red. Flavors vary. All is good and the best of luck with your winter crops. Thanks.
Hi Guys, when you were filling up the buckets and carrying the soil, I kept thinking why didn't you use a wheelbarrow, you could of filled it up high and no stress on the back 😍🥰😍
I do the same thing they do. It's the difference of shoveling once and getting to just dump it in the container once you pack it over. I fill up buckets and use a garden cart to move the buckets. But being able to just dump them instead of using the shovel again is a great bucket perk.
Yes, less shoveling. That’s harder on the body than carrying the buckets. And in the end it’s less mess of spilled dirt. It’s also faster because navigating around the greenhouse with a wheelbarrow would be difficult and take more time.
You can grow 9 of the pak choi in each tub. Hopefully we'll get the heater fixed in the GH tomorrow or my tomato plants are toast. We're getting a nice break in the weather this coming week so we'll finish putting the garden to bed till spring. Sad!! But already thinking and planning for next year. Thanks for sharing. God bless and protect.
Hi kids,if you had insulated the ground inside the green house it would be really nice,just trench around the perimeter 2ft deep and cut 4x8sheets of Styrofoam board insulation leaving inch or so above ground, this should work ok because you should be insulated below the frost line, enjoy
I remember when you switched your sprinkler heads to the ones that spray when fully charged. I tried to find that video to see where you bought the sprinklers but I couldn't find it. Can you please tell me where you purchased them? Thank you and God Bless!!🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Love your video! Thanks for the info! This year I grew daikon radishes for the time they grow pretty fast and there huge. There also great for a potato substitute. Have a good one and God bless!😊
Very Nice! I enjoy the music in the background, but distracts me while your talking. I haven't found a good source for the buckets, but I have enough for now. I just need a small green house.
As always, fantastic video 👏 I am surprised, though, at how late you are able to plant these vegetables with how little daylight we get. I can't wait to see it all grow Thank you
Good morning Kevin and Sarah!🤩 The weather has been crazy here too(MN). Our frost date was a full month late. And this week we will be in the 50's and 60's! The giant sugar maples in the yard still are not done dropping leaves! To have fresh greens in the winter is wonderful! What we do not realize is that uncooked food is so important for our bodies because of the living enzymes in the plants. I lost a lot of weight eating keto and mostly raw veggies and had wonderful skin. I was well into my 50's and people thought I was 40!😁 TK & GB😇😍
I plant almost exclusively in mineral tubs. I fill them about 1/3 to 1/2 full with tree branches, organic matter, and soil out of my chicken pen. Then top it off with a potting soil/compost mixture. It's easier to manage moisture than in a raised bed and eliminates the need to try to loosen our clay filled soil.
When I plant my tomatoes in pots the whole bottom of the pot is filled with roots. I kinda sift all of the roots out and then fill it up with new potting mix, etc. They don't seem to decompose over winter.
That info about the turnips and rudibaga is interesting. When or if you make them into a recipe, would you do a video on it? Would love to know how you do it. I have never used them like that. Love the winter planting. Cant wait to see how it does.
You actually don't have to fill the containers all the way up. You only need enough in the container for the roots of the particular plant in the pot. It looks nicer filled up. But it's also more expensive and just not necessary.
We live on top of a hill with lots of wildlife in our woods (deer). I set up a unique raised bed garden area. I have had NO success growing lettuce. On Prime day in July I purchased a Hope Garden countertop garden and had such great success I bought a second one. We did not buy any salad lettuce until last week. I have new seeds sprouting right now in both Hope Gardens I wanted them both on the same schedule as far as their lighting routine. These countertop gardens are great if you want your own salad greens but no space to grow. They actually work. I even got one lipstick pepper from the one seed I started but the plant was just too big. I'm going to stick with salad greens.
I use MiGardner seeds almost exclusively and I love them! I have grown Pak Choy for two years now and it is great in Asian dishes and I've used it in omelets; so yummy. I have some of those lettuces growing in my GreenStalk. I live in Michigan and have to cover the GS at night because we are in the 30s at night but are going up to high 40x and 50 during the day so I take the covers off during the day. Mary Born, ND
Happy Saturday Kevin and Sarah ❤❤ We have crazy weather too ,I'm done with planting till spring 😀 but I enjoy watching winter gardening with you both 😀 Much love from Toledo OH ❤❤ 18:00
What day/month did you plant these? Will you be setting a heater in your greenhouse? Are you growing turnips and rutabagas for their leaves and then you will harvest roots come Spring?
Pak Choi vs. Bok Choy Classification Both= Brassica rapa var. Chinensis Description Cabbage like in appearance, with many green leaves sprouting from a central white bulb. Crunchy white stems and delicate green leaves that are rounded and ruffled at the top. Veins extend upward through the leaves, depending on age Uses: Used in a variety of cuisines around the world, including stir frys, sautees, raw in salads, and more. Common in Asian cuisine, but readily used in other cuisines as well Nutrition Information High in Vitamin C and K, as well as folate and fiber Pak Choi:The common name for this particular plant in the UK! Bok Choy: The common name for this particular plant in the US!
Sarah,I love your hair. So many people are afraid to show any gray,It is going to happen to all so why not go with the flow..Good for you Sarah..
I had long hair, took me 16 months total to grow out my silver! So glad I did it! Love it! And no more poison hair dye!
I love her hair.
Lol I’m glad I’m not the only one who wants to garden despite the weather.

Carry two buckets at a time to keep your body balanced. Easier on your shoulders and back. Fill them less full if needed.
I wish they could hear us as we yell at them while we watch. Also start at the furthest tub, so that when you are tired at the end of the project you have less steps to take.
What an excellent suggestion. We all have ergonomic issues.
I love the way you and Kevin work together, good luck with your winter planting. I watch you all the time.
This last spring I mixed a variety of lettuces, radishes, Swiss chard, rutabaga, spinach in a bowl then just sprinkled it in to one of my raised beds. It was AMAZING! Highly recommend trying this.
I have used Nappa cabbage in stir-fry for a noodle like texture. I used the top part for that to get more veggies in the food for the kids. Just an idea.
Try radishes for a potato substitue, you will be amazed
You have the most beautiful things happening with your hair.
The greenhouse is amazing and your knowledge on how to make the best of it. Thank you for sharing
We used to move so much compost and dirt around.... the best purchase I ever made was the bucket for my tractor.
I love MIgardener seeds. Only place I order from. I put in an order on the 1st of this month at their 2024 seed kickoff and got them in the mail by the 4th. I was like a kid at Christmas opening the envelope to look at them all.

great vidweo. love the colour on that soil. kevin keep that full beard.
Thank you for ALL your good teaching!! I love the Merlot Lettuce, deep burgundy color. God Bless you, Kevin, and family!
Got my seeds, used your link! Thank you, GOD bless
Good Luck with your winter garden. I'm going to order some seeds from MI Gardener. thanks for the link.
What a great video thanks for sharing iam going to start some to
I'm having the same weather in North Mississippi. I will be planting lettuces and rutabagas today in my greenhouse. Thanks for the timely tutorial.

Have you thought about kohlrabi? I prefer it over turnips. They are super mild and crunchy raw.
A winter garden sounds great the vegetables you picked sound even better I hope they well for you
Love your videos. Thank you. So refreshing.
I thought you might have emptied all your buckets into that pile so that you get a mix or life and add all your cold compost (rabbit bits) to blend over winter.
A+ Content- Green House coming along nicely
I did a mystery purchase of seeds a couple years ago. It makes you try new stuff. I got my seeds from MI Gardener.
My Brother-in-law raises beef cattle and we managed to score about 18 of those mineral tubs. No green house here in Michigan yet, but really looking forward to using them next Spring. BTW I truly enjoy your RUclips channel. May God bless.
You are an amazing couple! I am so impressed, best wishes for all your fall veggies!
Being from Michigan it's good to see you using Migardener seeds!
And they are the best. They also do you tube videos. I have learned so much from them.
Thanks for sharing with us Kevin and Sarah, that will be an awesome winter garden that you two just planted. Looking forward to seeing you harvest it before long. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

Thank you Kevin & Sarah. Prayers. God Bless you all in Love. Lets go home soon ! Maranatha ! ( shared to f/b )
While you may have heard of this particular cabbage variety by a number of names, pak choi and bok choy are the same plants.
I absolutely LOVEEEEE young boc choy! I grill it in my George Forman grill and top it off with seasoned olive oil! So healthy and super yum!
I believe you have a drill bit auger for planting , FYI they work fantastic to mix in amendments like adding compost to pots
Always enjoy watching your videos when you’re working on the farm. Just curious and would like an update on the pigs and milk cows. 💕

Planting a seed is always about hoping and believing for what you cannot see … not what you see.
I just spent all day yesterday planting seeds and transplants for my winter garden and several tubs of different types greens for my chickens and ducks to enjoy as treats through the winter. Great minds think a like!!! Love your videos!!!
No Spinach? I’m surprised, because it is so delicious fresh cut in salads!
Maybe because it's high in oxilates?
LOVE YOU GUYS!
Our weather is like that too it's so silly how the weather is . Can't wait to see what the harvest is . 😊

Love bok choy. Great in salad as well as cooked. I learned to stagger the plantings a tad for my needs. Your lettuce assortment is wonderful.
Love your videos Sarah and Kevin, always a busy day for you two
You need a little tractor, a small little tractor with a little wagon or something and you fill up a bunch of those and bring them in and dump them and go back so that you don’t have to carry them! That’s how I got a hernia! So, please be careful😊

Fantastic!

The chores nor excitement never end with you two. Thank you and good luck.
All lettuce is good, but I read that green has more vitamin and minerals than red. Flavors vary. All is good and the best of luck with your winter crops. Thanks.
Have you tried roasted radishes? They are great!
Great vlog on planting in tubs. Thanks for sharing! Blessings to everyone 🤗💕🇨🇦
Please put all of the green tubs together. Blue tubs together. My OCD will thank you :)
Humor. Don't take everything so seriously.
A tractor bucket to the greenhouse door would be easier on the back as well. Where are your rabbits? Do you still raise them, or have you stopped?
Great video.

It hasn't rained for a while- that compost pile will probably be pretty dry and light...
@@LivingTraditionsHomesteadThank you for giving me the reason why you do it that way ♥️💙
They probably want the excercise!
You can grow 9 of the pak choi in each tub. Hopefully we'll get the heater fixed in the GH tomorrow or my tomato plants are toast. We're getting a nice break in the weather this coming week so we'll finish putting the garden to bed till spring. Sad!! But already thinking and planning for next year. Thanks for sharing. God bless and protect.
Can you show us how you water using the irrigation system you described? Thank you!
Wow you're about to hit 800k 🎉
Hi kids,if you had insulated the ground inside the green house it would be really nice,just trench around the perimeter 2ft deep and cut 4x8sheets of Styrofoam board insulation leaving inch or so above ground, this should work ok because you should be insulated below the frost line, enjoy
Great video 👍👍 Really enjoyed it
Thank you
I remember when you switched your sprinkler heads to the ones that spray when fully charged. I tried to find that video to see where you bought the sprinklers but I couldn't find it. Can you please tell me where you purchased them? Thank you and God Bless!!🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Watching the seedlings grow my favorite part of growing vegetables
Love your video! Thanks for the info! This year I grew daikon radishes for the time they grow pretty fast and there huge. There also great for a potato substitute. Have a good one and God bless!😊
Always put one foot in front of the other good luck with your garden
Very Nice! I enjoy the music in the background, but distracts me while your talking. I haven't found a good source for the buckets, but I have enough for now. I just need a small green house.
I can't wait to see how fast they grow.
Yes, pak choi is my favorite of the choys. Good choice. 😊
I had to look it up: pak choi and bok choi are the same thing. We tend to say bok choi in the US.
As always, fantastic video 👏 I am surprised, though, at how late you are able to plant these vegetables with how little daylight we get. I can't wait to see it all grow
Thank you
Both of you are such an inspiration ❤ God bless

did not work for me either

Do you have your other greenhouses? Did you bring them from your old homestead??
🙏🙏🙏🙂♥️👍. God bless your working hands
Happy Saturday Kevin and Sarah ❤❤ We have crazy weather too ,I'm done with planting till spring 😀 but I enjoy watching winter gardening with you both 😀
Much love from Toledo OH ❤❤ 18:00
Good afternoon! Absolutely love your green house!! Cant wait ti see your sprouts!!
God winter eating for all your hard summer chores. Great video and inspiration for us all.
Thank you for sharing 😀 ❤ God Bless🙌
Nice planting
Awesome! Will look forward to see your garden grow!
I wasn't able to use the discount code for MI Gardner.
What day/month did you plant these? Will you be setting a heater in your greenhouse? Are you growing turnips and rutabagas for their leaves and then you will harvest roots come Spring?
