You both are such a wealth of knowledge and experience, and I thought that was the indoor stuff, your awareness of the environment and what is growing around you is wonderful too. Its going to be a great summer and I'm looking forward to hanging out with you!!!
Happy to see you back in Caravan Corner. I can’t wait to see that willow hedge fill in. It will be lovely. You have accomplished so much already, with so much more to come. I admire your stamina despite Covid. Cheers from 🇨🇦
So pleased to hear the both of you are on the mend. I certainly enjoy caravan corner, it is great to see you relaxed and chat about what you have been up to. Your home is progressing at an amazing pace.
That wallpaper is absolutely gorgeous. I’m so looking forward to see how you pull the colours from it to decorate the rest of the room. And YES! Curtains!!!!! Especially puddling on the floor, love that look!
Wonderful to see y’all back and well. I totally understand how pretty much everything has to take a backseat when you have a garden. When it’s time to plant or gather, it’s time. Can’t wait to meet your son! Best wishes and good health ❤️❤️
So glad to hear your recovering so well. I love viewing your lovely property and your imagination for your future in France. I've never traveled so love to see your grounds and love listening to your accents lol 😂. Agree with others that your are both so knowledgeable. God bless and Happy Easter from California USA 🇺🇸 hugs Christine
Tracy, love your sweater or as you guys call it a jumper. Very cute. So happy you’re on the mend,,,you need all your energy to be 100% as hard as you go at it. Love your vlogs…from PA, USA.
Love your "Caravan Corner" it is always so interesting how you set things up and explain everything. Great content and really enjoy all you do. All very exciting and so enjoyable to watch. Thank you!!
I'm glad your recovering well from Covid! I'm so excited to see the hedge grow, it's going to be spectacular and listening to you describe how the flowers will be was exciting as well. The scenery in this video was just extra beautiful, the sky was the prettiest blue and those clouds with the trees on the foreground, it was like looking at a big cinema screen! Thanks for sharing your little slice of Heaven with us!
Thank you we are on the mend now 😀 Budo and l said the same there was no filters involved in the making of this vlog 😂 the djl is a great pocket camera it is fab and picks up everything in depth we are very lucky here in Normandy to have such beautifu lsky's day and night time . Happy Easter 🐣 😀
The return of the Great Budo! I am certain that "Queen Point" found your illness concerning. Glad you overcame that awful virus. Please do continue the Caravan Corner segments. It's a great update on current tasks and projects as well as changes in what were future plans.... Short videos (10 mins or less) are welcomed. You make such a great team! Mind how ya go!
Whooo hooo back in the saddle!! Congratulations on new addition to the family and very happy you two are feeling better… C caravan corner .. I definitely look forward to it each and every time.. 😁 sending well wishes from Alabama ..
When your farmhouse is done, you can call your intro Cottage Corner.😃Glad you both are feeling better. ❤️ Love the wallpaper! Garden looks great! Happy Easter to you both 🐣 🐣
Really glad you are both well. The wallpaper is an absolute wow 🤩 and good to see you’ve been enjoying some Normandie sunshine. Joyeux Paques from me and my perfectly imperfect Petite Maison 🐣🐇💐
Good to see you both up and about but you need to take it steady ! Love the golden willow, a friend grows willow to coppice for fuel , possibly a different variety. Good tip about soaking the garlic, it’s doing well. You are right about the blackthorn, it has something nasty on the thorns that can cause an infection….love the plans for a flower patch and a willow dome. That wallpaper will be amazing in the bedroom and curtains will make it feel very cosy. Think you deserve a luxurious space to recover from all your hard work….
The wallpaper is absolutely gorgeous, what a fantastic choice. Your have such a choice of colours to choose from, it will be stunning when it's finished. Don't overdo thing's after covid, your doing an amazing job
Really pleased you are both well and looking forward to seeing your new grandbaby. That wallpaper is fabulous and will look great once it's all on . Happy Easter to you both and take care xxx
Thanks for sharing your knowledge of golden willow and how to plant them, along with all the other gardening. You both work so hard. We understand how you feel trying to recoup from covid and trying to regain your strength. My husband and I started our vegetable garden last week. We got onion bulbs, radishes, tender greens, and green beans planted. Later we will plant squash, cucumbers, then tomatoes, peppers, okra. I always have about three rows of assorted wild flowers at one side of the garden, can't have enough flowers. I plant black eyed peas about every other year. We have about seventy-five tomato plants so we have enough for making salsa, pasta sauce, and have made pizza sauce and ketchup. Also like to make some jars of canned tomatoes. I am seventy-five and my husband will be eighty next month and we are finding it harder to have a huge garden like we have in the past. Used to have lots of corn, pinto beans, and other veggies but are cutting back. It's so rewarding and comforting to stock our pantry and share with our children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. I love to watch your progress and your home and land are so beautiful! Janice and BJ from Arkansas USA
How amazing you both are gardening is a great way of keeping healthy and is a great way of connecting with nature 🙂 and how wonderful to grow and harvest your produce and make so many different things and stock up your pantry and let you family share this as well. Thank you so much and thank you for following us on our journey . Happy Easter to you both 🤗🐣 Tracy et Budo xx
Tracey, I made willow wreaths at Christmas from our golden willow. I cut it fresh and used a round plastic flip top bin lid as a former to keep the shape and size, as I wanted 2 matching wreaths as we have double doors. It worked a treat and they are ready to use again next year. They would also be great for dried flower wreaths to decorate indoors, or nice enough to use bare or add bunches of herbs to dry. Love what you are doing. 💖
That's a great idea Sue .. l use to make my own Christmas wreaths from fresh foliage from our garden for family and friends they do look beautiful 😍 great suggestions thank you 🤗❤
Those Willows will love it in that soil and will go crackers. Really good choice for creating a new hedge, it will look stunning in no time. I'm glad youre both on the mend, just shows how important the vaccinations are for keeping you safe. Thanks for sharing.
So thankful you’ve kicked COVID. Sounds as your cases were similar to mine, I was very sick for four days, then over it. It did take a month to recover stamina, so do what you can, rest when needed. Love what your home is becoming.
Glad that your both feeling better! The willow hedge will be beautiful. I love your wallpaper for the bedroom it's beautiful. Enjoy those sunny days they make you feel so good. Happy Easter to the both of you! 🐰 Take care
Your vision of a French Farm House is spot on! Fantastic idea with the willow fence. Will be a wonderful feature for your land. Get totally better soon!🥰🇨🇦
Gorgeous wallpaper! I love the yellow and green ❤️ that will be warm and cheerful all year round. My grandfather used to talk about the blackthorn winter, I think that you could expect more bad weather after the blackthorn blossom. Let's see if that's what happens this year!
Thank you so much Brefne yes its beautiful lm so glad l choose it 💖 yes we have heard that as well and the weather is suppose to change from Monday so lets see 🤗🐇🐣
Happy Easter Budo and Tracy, great to see you both recovering from covid and looking well! I love your paper, so beautiful with the colours and lovely birds. Your love for your land, the plants animals and nature is really heartwarming, you’re an inspiring couple! X
Hi Budo and Tracey, hope you’re both on the mend, after Covid! Thanks for good info on planting a willow hedge. Looking forward to seeing it grow, keep up the good garden work. Love the wall paper for the bedroom Tracey, great choice, sending great well hugs x
Hi Tracy and Budo! That sunshine will help you recover with plenty of vitamin D production, but take it easy for another week. That hedge is going to look great. Those mature hedgerows look so lovely in the English countryside. I am glad to see such experienced gardeners in action. Happy Easter!
Happy Easter to you 2! So glad that you have recovered! Tracy- your wallpaper choice is perfect! You both have such a wonderful vision of "what will be" and your dedication has already accomplished so much. Enjoy your hot shower! Soon a soft bed in your farmhouse will be your joy! Plant those trees and shrubs to bring shade to your land. THANKS for Caravan Corner! Maybe outside in the summer for your chats?
Loving what you’re doing with the garden it’s going to be so lovely, the bedroom won’t be long before you finish now either, your wallpaper looks beautiful I love the colours xx
It’s always nice to see you, I get a big smile when I see a new vlog posted. I’m so glad you are both on the mend. Beautiful home and land. Your hard work is making a paradise.
Great to see you back and recovering well the wall paper is beautiful cannot wait for the final reveal your garden is coming on fantastic the willow hedge is going to look fabulous you both work so hard happy Easter to you both
Beautiful job of the willow hedge and amazing your garlic is taking off in the no dig garden. I have 3 English lavenders in my garden and 1 French and the spell is gorgeous. I can only imagine the field of lavendar you’re going to plant 🤗
Hope your both feeling much better,& Budo you can taste the biscuits 🍪again 😋 Tracey the wallpaper is absolutely gorgeous, & the wall paneling is stunning! I thought the terrier was digging for Truffles 😉 Have a wonderful Easter 🐣 with your family 🐣💐♥️
Sandra it did make me chuckle 😂 l made spag bowl and it smelt lovely but when we both ate it we could not taste anything 😮 so disappointing.. the bedroom will look beautiful when it is finished sooo exciting 😀 we have oak trees on our land and truffles like beech trees as well 🤞thank you so much Sandra happy easter to you to 🤗🐇❤ xx
Glad you're feeling better. I'd love to be able to peek into the future and see your place and gardens in ten years time. It'll be like Disneyland. Cheers.
Happy Easter to you and your family. The willow hedge will make a great wind break for the veg & herb patch. I think it is a good plan to solve the water ingress from the window before moving on to finishing the room. Bathroom, bedroom, kitchen makes the farmhouse quite livable while the rest is renovated.
I am really looking forward to seeing your bedroom finished, I think it isgoing to look absolutely stunning. I also love seeing what you are doing in the garden, how nice to be able to eat your own produce. Happy Easter to you both love from South Australia 🇦🇺 x
Great to see you guys are on mend. I didn’t realize you had COVID too Tracy. Sorry to hear that. My husband wants to join you both in caravan corner for a cuppa and a chat. Lol. The willow hedge is going to look lovely and the garlic has to make you eager to plant more food. Take care and keep em comin my lovelies 🥰
Hope this find you well. The Willow. I watched a piece fro. The UK where a father had a red a thicket hedge of these and each year he wove al the new growth Into it making it strong and sturdy. He created a corridor for wildlife. Birds on top and somewhere for ground dwellers below like rabbits, hedgehogs etc. He also had like doorway openings so bigger creatures like badger and deer could get through. It will look amazing when it gets going. Congrats on being such great Wildlife warriors cheers Kim 😊👩💼❤
Hi Kim hope all is well with you 🙂sounds fantastic as our widlife is so important and needs to be protected and thought of by everyone thta what we are trying to do as well Bon weekend Tracy et Budo 🥰💐🌷
It took me 6 weeks to get my taste and smell back solid. No jab. CV felt like a bad cold. I can't tell you which med works best to get rid of that chest congestion and ticklely cough. But it begins with a bud and ends with an esonide. 😊 Works like a charm.
Yes that seems to be two of the main symptoms and people have said the same as you and yes it was like a bad cold ? I will look it up thank you Janice 🤗🐣🥰
I think your French home will be so unique, I am getting some great ideas from you both...and I agree you get what you pay for...quality counts and never dates...
So happy to know you are both feeling better! The wallpaper is gorgeous 😍 Lovely to see your garden starting to sprout 🌱🌱🌱🌱 Your Golden Willow hedge will be amazing!! Take care 😊🙏💕💕 Happy Easter 💐💐
Lovely video, you are both so knowledgeable about sooo many things. I learn a lot every time I watch your vlogs which are always interesting and informative. Thank you.
Glad to see your both feeling better, I had 'the cold' last month and it took a while to get rid of the cough but it eventually should get better!! Just wish I had your energy!! 😁.. If you've had so much progress in such little time just the two of you I can only imagine what you'll get done with your sons help!! Love what your doing in the garden, will we be having 'garden corner' or willow corner in the summer? 😜🤔😁🤗
This one is going to be a tiny bit long because y’all are killing it. 1. Those bedroom panels just take that space up to another level. Pure craftsmanship. ( the wall lights also magical). 2. THE WALLPAPER seriously? The mustard yellow with that vibrant green is beautiful on its own but add in the colorful tail feathers 🪶 of the birds and oh la la magnificent. 3. Love your bold approach to every design because some may wonder why you chose yellow but I saw your little square on the wall and the color coordinates wonderfully wi kk KB th the stone. 4. The puddle curtains most definitely. So much more romantic than Roman shutters. Roman shutters should NEVER go in a classy bedroom that you are designing. 5. I vote for a four poster bed 🛌 too 😉6. I think having a dog who digs up roots is hilarious. Maybe he can find truffles in the future.:7. I’m sorry about COVID. Losing my taste also I was told to start with everything elderberries and slowly work tow lard my taste and smell.
Thank you so much Rowena for your detailed comment what l love is you cover everything every little detail and you like all our other subscribers appreciate everything we do and yes this is why l choose the wallpaper and l am really excited to see it finished. New windows shutters etc... Happy Easter to you 🤗🐇❤ xx
In Scotland we call the willow with the fluffy heads Pussy Willow. It loves water and seeks it out. Good that you are going to plant it away from your house. I've known people plant it too close to the house and it destroyed the drains. It is lovely though! Do take care Budo . You are breathing very heavily Covid is no fun.
Hi, we have lots of blackthorn and we wait for the first frost before picking the slopes. The only problem we have is keeping it in control as it spreads by runners.
Happy Easter Weekend The hedge looks like it will be a winner. I love the wallpaper it will make a joyous room. Bright ad uplifting. I am so happy that you to are on the mend. Be sure not to push yourselves to hard.
Glad you feeling a lot better Budo. just take it easy. Nice to see you back at caravan corner again. The willow hedge will look lovey when established. Your dog[ Sorry I forgot the name lovely dog} was determined to dig was anything found lol. Loving the wallpaper Tracy for the bedroom , cannot wait to see when it up and the colour paint you will use. Loved watching. Happy Easter to you both. Take care xx
Thank you so much Annette . Her name is Chezzy no bless her 😂 we are excited as well the paint colour is more understated to match all the woodwork 🤗 Happy Easter to you to Annette 🤗🐇🐰 xxxx
I really enjoyed your vidio this week and always do anyway! Gardening is also a passion of mine. Very interesting project of how to plant the willow hedges So sorry to hear you both have had covid, such a relief so see you both up and outside again. Will be exciting to see more of your bedroom renovation , so far it is looking fabulous, take care and look after one and other xx
Glad to see you both starting to feel better. That willow will be so lovely once it starts growing. Will it take a lot of work to maintain it? My wife has just set up a small veg patch in Normandy trying the no dig system you use… keep your fingers (or gardening gloves) crossed for us.
Hi Mike the maintenance on the willow is very little mate just cut it back quite hard to encourage more growth in late winter and the no dig system is so simple you wont go wrong my friend look up Charles Downing on youtube hes the daddy of no dig good luck guys all the best budo 🙏🌷👍
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries thanks for the reply Budo and advice. Appreciate you responding to messages as you both get a lot! Keep up the great work and videos! 👍
Great to see you both looking, and being healthy again. Is there anything you two don't know or can't do?. Something that concerns me is what's going to happen to Caravan Corner when you move in?. Maybe Cosy corner, Kitchen corner, as it'll be very well lit in the new kitchen. Always inspiring, and i'm hoping that there will be some good tips, when i finally mange to get there too.
Hi Simon thank you for your positive comments we have had this conversation as well and you will have to watch this space lol mums the word 😂 hope we can help you . Happy Easter 🐣 😀
Happy Easter to you both. The wallpaper reflects your vibrant personalities and the colors are very uplifting. I love what we call in the states pussy Willow. My Mom would pick some and put it in the house in a vase in the spring. Garden coming along nicely. Tucson Az
You both are such a wealth of knowledge and experience, and I thought that was the indoor stuff, your awareness of the environment and what is growing around you is wonderful too. Its going to be a great summer and I'm looking forward to hanging out with you!!!
Thank you so much Aunty Tutu 😘 we are so glad you are following us on our Journey happy Easter 🤗🐰

Happy Easter from Villages Fl.
Happy Easter to you to Claudia Moffett 🤗🐇
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries Thank you
Happy Easter to you and your family. The willow hedge will make a great wind break for the veg & herb patch. I think it is a good plan to solve the water ingress from the window before moving on to finishing the room. Bathroom, bedroom, kitchen makes the farmhouse quite livable while the rest is renovated.
Yes we totally agree Nanci . Happy Easter 🐣 💓
I am really looking forward to seeing your bedroom finished, I think it isgoing to look absolutely stunning. I also love seeing what you are doing in the garden, how nice to be able to eat your own produce. Happy Easter to you both love from South Australia 🇦🇺 x
Yes we are really excited to see it finished as well 🤗 yes perfect and you know were it's all come from as well . Happy Easter to youn🤗🐣
Looks good the hedge and a lot of progress has been made and thanks for sharing happy easter the both of you 😊🐰🐰🐇🐣

Great to see you guys are on mend. I didn’t realize you had COVID too Tracy. Sorry to hear that. My husband wants to join you both in caravan corner for a cuppa and a chat. Lol. The willow hedge is going to look lovely and the garlic has to make you eager to plant more food. Take care and keep em comin my lovelies 🥰
Thank youvso much our lovelie Sue and her husband of course he can happy Easter to you both 🤗🙏🐰🐇
Hope this find you well. The Willow. I watched a piece fro. The UK where a father had a red a thicket hedge of these and each year he wove al the new growth Into it making it strong and sturdy. He created a corridor for wildlife. Birds on top and somewhere for ground dwellers below like rabbits, hedgehogs etc. He also had like doorway openings so bigger creatures like badger and deer could get through. It will look amazing when it gets going. Congrats on being such great Wildlife warriors cheers Kim 😊👩💼❤
Hi Kim hope all is well with you 🙂sounds fantastic as our widlife is so important and needs to be protected and thought of by everyone thta what we are trying to do as well Bon weekend Tracy et Budo 🥰💐🌷
Great to hear both of you are feeling better all the best from john ps keep up the good work
Thank you John we will 🤗🙏🐇
It took me 6 weeks to get my taste and smell back solid. No jab. CV felt like a bad cold. I can't tell you which med works best to get rid of that chest congestion and ticklely cough. But it begins with a bud and ends with an esonide. 😊 Works like a charm.
Yes that seems to be two of the main symptoms and people have said the same as you and yes it was like a bad cold ? I will look it up thank you Janice 🤗🐣🥰
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries I had 3 nebulizer treatments. All done. No further issues.
Good to see you recovering, as a non gardener, interesting info on the Willow hedge.. cheers
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
I think your French home will be so unique, I am getting some great ideas from you both...and I agree you get what you pay for...quality counts and never dates...

Lovely video, you are both so knowledgeable about sooo many things. I learn a lot every time I watch your vlogs which are always interesting and informative. Thank you.
Wexare so glad you like our videos thank you 🤗🙏🐇🐰
Glad to see your both feeling better, I had 'the cold' last month and it took a while to get rid of the cough but it eventually should get better!! Just wish I had your energy!! 😁.. If you've had so much progress in such little time just the two of you I can only imagine what you'll get done with your sons help!! Love what your doing in the garden, will we be having 'garden corner' or willow corner in the summer? 😜🤔😁🤗
Thank you so much Anne we know what the end result will be
And that what give us the energy.
Ooh you never know 😂😂😂🐰🐇🤗
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries have a lovely Easter 🐣🐰🐇🤗
Love the wallpaper. Looking forward to the willow fence.
Thank you Kathy 🤗🙏🐰
Happy Easter
Happy Easter debra 🤗🙏🐇🐰
This one is going to be a tiny bit long because y’all are killing it. 1. Those bedroom panels just take that space up to another level. Pure craftsmanship. ( the wall lights also magical). 2. THE WALLPAPER seriously? The mustard yellow with that vibrant green is beautiful on its own but add in the colorful tail feathers 🪶 of the birds and oh la la magnificent. 3. Love your bold approach to every design because some may wonder why you chose yellow but I saw your little square on the wall and the color coordinates wonderfully wi kk KB th the stone. 4. The puddle curtains most definitely. So much more romantic than Roman shutters. Roman shutters should NEVER go in a classy bedroom that you are designing. 5. I vote for a four poster bed 🛌 too 😉6. I think having a dog who digs up roots is hilarious. Maybe he can find truffles in the future.:7. I’m sorry about COVID. Losing my taste also I was told to start with everything elderberries and slowly work tow lard my taste and smell.
Thank you so much Rowena for your detailed comment what l love is you cover everything every little detail and you like all our other subscribers appreciate everything we do and yes this is why l choose the wallpaper and l am really excited to see it finished. New windows shutters etc... Happy Easter to you 🤗🐇❤ xx
In Scotland we call the willow with the fluffy heads Pussy Willow. It loves water and seeks it out. Good that you are going to plant it away from your house. I've known people plant it too close to the house and it destroyed the drains. It is lovely though!
Do take care Budo . You are breathing very heavily Covid is no fun.
Thank you Ann we have heard that as well and Budo said he will thank you 🤗🙏
Lovely video. You two are so
Thank you Sandra 🤗 😊 💓
Hi, we have lots of blackthorn and we wait for the first frost before picking the slopes. The only problem we have is keeping it in control as it spreads by runners.
Yes we do know that and we will be looking out for this Sue thank you for pointing this out 🤗❤
Happy Easter Weekend The hedge looks like it will be a winner. I love the wallpaper it will make a joyous room. Bright ad uplifting. I am so happy that you to are on the mend. Be sure not to push yourselves to hard.
Happy Easter to you Sharon 🤗🐇 yes we think so as well and we won't 🤗🐇
Glad you feeling a lot better Budo. just take it easy. Nice to see you back at caravan corner again. The willow hedge will look lovey when established. Your dog[ Sorry I forgot the name lovely dog} was determined to dig was anything found lol. Loving the wallpaper Tracy for the bedroom , cannot wait to see when it up and the colour paint you will use. Loved watching. Happy Easter to you both. Take care xx
Thank you so much Annette . Her name is Chezzy no bless her 😂 we are excited as well the paint colour is more understated to match all the woodwork 🤗 Happy Easter to you to Annette 🤗🐇🐰 xxxx
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries 🥰
I really enjoyed your vidio this week and always do anyway! Gardening is also a passion of mine. Very interesting project of how to plant the willow hedges
So sorry to hear you both have had covid, such a relief so see you both up and outside again. Will be exciting to see more of your bedroom renovation , so far it is looking fabulous, take care and look after one and other xx
Thank you so much Sandra so glad you enjoyed the video and we will thank you 🤗🙏🐇🐰
Glad to see you both starting to feel better. That willow will be so lovely once it starts growing. Will it take a lot of work to maintain it? My wife has just set up a small veg patch in Normandy trying the no dig system you use… keep your fingers (or gardening gloves) crossed for us.
Hi Mike the maintenance on the willow is very little mate just cut it back quite hard to encourage more growth in late winter and the no dig system is so simple you wont go wrong my friend look up Charles Downing on youtube hes the daddy of no dig good luck guys all the best budo 🙏🌷👍
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries thanks for the reply Budo and advice. Appreciate you responding to messages as you both get a lot! Keep up the great work and videos! 👍
Great to see you both looking, and being healthy again. Is there anything you two don't know or can't do?. Something that concerns me is what's going to happen to Caravan Corner when you move in?. Maybe Cosy corner, Kitchen corner, as it'll be very well lit in the new kitchen. Always inspiring, and i'm hoping that there will be some good tips, when i finally mange to get there too.
Hi Simon thank you for your positive comments we have had this conversation as well and you will have to watch this space lol mums the word 😂 hope we can help you . Happy Easter 🐣 😀
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries Okay!. Looking forward to the rebadging. Also, a Happy Easter to you two, too.
Happy Easter to you both. The wallpaper reflects your vibrant personalities and the colors are very uplifting. I love what we call in the states pussy Willow. My Mom would pick some and put it in the house in a vase in the spring. Garden coming along nicely. Tucson Az
Thank you so much M
Yes it looks lovely in a vase as well 🤗🐇🙏
I just love your vision! I would love to come and see it all growing! Where in Normandy are you? X
Thank you so much Gillian wexare near flers 🤗🙏
Ooooh...could you tell me where that gorgeous wall paper came from ? I love it ❤️😍❤️😍
Yes I was like that is so beautiful
