Seeing Louise Marshal the shepherdess with her rescued sheep, keeping them alive and giving them a second chance at life with quality, truly makes my heart sing. I've never seen such happy sheep!
I grew up on a 27 acre farm.in New Jersey. My Dad raised chickens for eggs. As a 4-H child, I had 30 Turkeys , 200 chickens and 15 to 20 sheep. We also had a big vegetable and flower garden. No cows, no horses, no steers. I sold my animals, I didn't slaughter(That's not a pleasant word) any of them. People begged for my Turkeys at Thanksgiving and Christmas, the chickens became barbecue at our County Fair and the Sheep went elsewhere, they were food not pets. I have been a non meat eater for quite a while, even then I knew where they ended up, but ignored my own inner feelings. Seeing those sheep being kept as useful estate members, of course the wool and the natural grass plowing benefits the place, really felt good . It's ironic how some of the most famous Vegan/vegetarian. whole food Doctors started their lives as Farmers, but realistically the most we can hope for is some middle ground which you so ably demonstrate. Cheers, Frederick "Rik" Spector
I love how warm Julie is. I feel like she's a friend! I live in Las Vegas in the US, but spent 5 years in Germany in the 90s with my first husband who was in the air force. I miss traveling.
Bonjour Denise, what a thrilling era we live in with all those vidéos. One day in England, one day... If you'd like to "travel" in my country, France, there is a man doing interesting short videos : Lorant Deutsch...
Great video! I was actually a volunteer at Deans Court 2 years ago for 2 months. Everyone there was super nice and friendly. I had an amazing time there and would love to do it again.
Oh my goodness, I'm so thrilled to have discovered your channel! I lived in Norway for years, and spent a good amount of time in England. Scandinavia, and Great Britain, specifically England, are the lands of my ancestors. My love for Brit's, and all things British, is off the charts. Norway is a very close second. As a newcomer, I look forward to beginning this journey with everyone here!
Thank you for your kind words Donna! We're the zany British duo that filmed and edited this series of American Viscountess. You'll probably enjoy our channel too, we hope you can join us there...
Love these. I grew up in East Yorkshire but I’m now living in sunny San Diego. When I watch these it feels like a little visit home. Thanks for all the great content, and for all your preservation and conservation work.
Lovely! I have a friend who helps farmers with composting and adding natural microbes to their land! I shared this video with her and I know she'll enjoy it as much as I have! The sheep are beautiful ❤️! Wonderful property ☺️! Thank you for sharing!
Loved the organic kitchen garden and also loved the idea that Leslie is rescuing lambs. Keep up the great work Julie. If I win the lottery, I'll help support your work. Until then, keep it up, love from America.
What a beautiful soul she is...thank you for saving all those incredible creatures!! yes..... every creature on our Mother Earth have the right to live!! Thank you Julie to share this incredible video! You are a very beautiful soul, too!
I love organic gardening; the cauliflower looked wonderful! The one Julie picked was a marvelous size!! They have quiet a variety of animals! What a wonderful visit!
Oh Julie the American in you is so…..excitable I guess is the word I’m looking for. I simply love it. Am fascinated how you are speaking and learning Italian. My granddaughter and I are coming in about a year, so I was drawn your film titles.
No-dig gardening is definitely the way to go. I decided to do it in my garden right from the beginning, despite the disbelievers and side-eyes I got lol. My soil is bursting with life of all kinds, and this summer I got a clear indication that the mycelia (aka mushroom fungus network under the soil) is thriving. Mushrooms don't grow in crappy soil, so I was so happy I took a picture. Well a few pictures! I always have a great harvest, my plants have (knock on wood) never had any kind of massive infestation or disease (having healthy soil means healthy plants, which means they're better able to fight off disease), and I have WAY less weeding than my neighbours who till the soil.
Another great episode! Caught the premiere today yeah! Fresh picked veggies and a hungry goat.. Lol Wonderful happy sheep and an ancient Roman coin! Doesn't get much better than that! 🙂
My family planted tomatoes behind our detached garage in 1948 and fertilized with all of our wet garbage. Dad was an Army Colonel and Mom had never had a garden before. I was too young to be curious about the source of their knowledge or methods.
I love your channel it has everything, art, history, architecture, food, gardens, beautiful homes, beautiful scenery, aristocracy, animals, all so beautifully shot, and Julie seems so "normal", down to earth. and relatable, it's like if a friend became a Nun you'd be all nervous, how do I act, what do I say, what do I do, I'm not equating the aristocracy to becoming a Nun but I think you know what I mean

I hate to tell you but 1973 was very late in the organic gardening movement. My grandparents were organic gardeners from before WWI. You’ve heard of Graham Crackers? Battle Creek Sanatarium?
I just recently stumbled upon your videos and I think they are fantastic. I am mostly English by ancestry but have always been interested in the English Aristocracy and history. I hope to visit in person one day but until then, I will enjoy your videos.

Curious about the reference to John Hannum returning from Virginia with the two trees in 1607, which was the year the settlement of Jamestowne was founded in the future colony of Virginia. Was he a member of a ship’s crew?
Researched this and learned that Hanham was an initial investor in the Virginia Company, but did not go to the New World. In late 1607, Capt Christopher Newport returned to London after transporting the settlers; he must have brought back the trees for Hanham.
Always best to give things a wash before you eat them, a little bit of soil may not do you much harm but contamination by things such as rats, slugs, and snails can cause some pretty nasty diseases.
Were the serpentain kitchen garden walls original or made that way in contemporry tims because Thomas Jefferson integrated curving walls at the University of Virginia that were made one brick wide and curved to give it strength. This design feature was found out when the university grounds were being rennovated years ago.
julie, can you tell me why that beautiful rock wall surrounding the garden was serpentine? was there a reason? just for looks, or did the curves create some kind of biosphere of growth? the aerial view is stunning, you can see just how wonderful it looked from the sky. a rock wall gently curving gently along, like a wave of water.
The serpentine shape stabilizes the wall, making it easier to stay standing up. This way, the wall does not have to be nearly as thick as a straight wall and uses much less stone. The serpentine line makes it a mite longer, but still uses less stone, ergo: less labor, less money, fewer repairs (blah, blah…sorry!)
@@OnDasherOnDancer thanks so much for the information, it really does make sense now that you said that, the wall really looked thin from the air, but wasn't it pretty how they had little vignettes of plantings in the curves? I loved it.
I’m curious how did you develop your fear of animals? You seem interested in organics and invested in yoga so I can’t make sense of it. I know so many Americans with good backgrounds who are great with animals and nature hands on, I just have to ask. This was a beautiful place and footage! And few things touch my heart as ancient trees, absolutely magical ❤️
@@AmericanViscountess naw, you had the cow phobia before that, it’s clearly more deep seated anxiety than that recent event. Yoga is great but try CBT! Developed specifically for this kind of thing! Do it and thank me later ;) Cows are naturally curious and gentle. If the cow wanted to threaten you or hurt you you’d be history and alot of cattle farmers would be killed regularly. And goats aren’t cattle. It’s visibly irratic fear you’ll feel so much better if you can leave behind you. I’d be too curious not to get to the bottom of it, psychology fascinates me so. I have one phobia, fear of heights/vertigo, from an experience at age 15 I’ll deal with through CBT, because everything else doesn’t do the trick even if breathing excersizes are great etc. I want it gone. hypnotherapy and CBT are very effective methods. I used to be thrilled with heights as a kid, it’s rediculous, fussiness is not my character. You’ll be more relaxed when you get it overwirh my friend, you live in the country! Go get ’em! 😄❤️💪
I am enjoying these shows, however, I wish she would not interrupt so much AND stop finishing their sentences. My little sister does that and it makes me crazy.
Bonjour Julie, bonjour tout le monde... May you do one of your great videos in... Windsor ? I would love you having a walk and talk with the Lady of the Castle : Wonder Elizabeth. Long love to the Queen.

Julie, you’re so joyous. Your love for life is infectious.
Oh thank you!

That garden wall is beautiful. A series of arches formed by the constant curve, snake-like pattern. Makes perfect sense to stand strong forever.
Great video! I was actually a volunteer at Deans Court 2 years ago for 2 months. Everyone there was super nice and friendly. I had an amazing time there and would love to do it again.

It's like the Great Gatsby. The blue convertible swishing along country lanes. DREAMY!
I love their organic garden. That black soil is what we call in USA 'black gold' because whatever is grown in it taste delicious!
Love these. I grew up in East Yorkshire but I’m now living in sunny San Diego. When I watch these it feels like a little visit home. Thanks for all the great content, and for all your preservation and conservation work.
Glad you like them!
That undulating garden wall is a thing of beauty!

I love organic gardening; the cauliflower looked wonderful! The one Julie picked was a marvelous size!! They have quiet a variety of animals! What a wonderful visit!
Fantastic video!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved learning about the gardens and critters. The people on the estate are marvelous!! Love from Vermont
Goats are rented out here in California to reduce wildfire risk by eating the tall wild grasses.
Absolutely delighted to see the animals living so happily and that kitchen garden!!!
The best!
Perfect in every way 💖
I Hope Everyone at Mapperton is Safe,
Following Storm❄️Arwen, over the Weekend.😌
Go Julie, chomp that cauliflower goodness. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Oh Julie the American in you is so…..excitable I guess is the word I’m looking for. I simply love it. Am fascinated how you are speaking and learning Italian. My granddaughter and I are coming in about a year, so I was drawn your film titles.
Ok. Mapperton Manor and Viscountess Julie are officially on my Bucket List. See you in my future ! Keep rocking your Explorer vibes !
Sounds great!
Julie, this is fantastic. Really loved it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video!! I love that the sheep have a "retirement" home to grow old and safe in ❤❤
I like how you are so at home with everyone.
Julie, please tell us your planning a Holiday Special...Deck the Halls of Mapperton🎄
Yup! Filming starting tomorrow

12:28 _It's OK._ They're just speaking in Goat to each other. Goat is a very physical language. No permanent harm's being done.
I would like to see more of the homes and estate and less introduction and endings
So, I'm an Aries, would that qualify me for the sheep rescue? 🙃
Loved this, the energy is so kind and nurturing.

What is the name of the sheep rescue org?
Is that a real shepherd’s hut/caravan by the goats?
