    It is so important to teach children how to plant seeds & grow veggies. People just don't teach their kids this stuff anymore. Very sad. I like watching your kids learn and grow.

    My parents had a garden well before I came along. My earliest memories are of carrying a pail that held water and sometimes plants in that pail. In 6th grade we had horticulture and I was the only one that knew anything about it. I've got a small container garden now and have planted several fruit trees in extra large containers here. I'm 66 and am trying my best to grow more of my own food here.

    Good job to both boys on their school work.

    Wholeheartedly agree!! Because it’s a skill! Some people think you just plant seeds and instant food but it can take a lot of time and effort and dealing with pests and all sorts of issues like your daughter mentioned mold. There are all kinds of issues that can hinder someone’s ability to grow their own food but if they stick with it they will discover unique work arounds and ways to make their plants thrive so they will have an abundant harvest!

    My grandparents and my dad taught me how to grow a vegetable and flower garden. If I did not live in a high-rise, I would continue to grow my own veggies.
    When I would garden, I would be in my happy place.

    That was genius to add the person inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide. My daughter tested genius in 3rd grade. I believe you have a group geniuses on your hands!!
    I use to buy bean sprouts all the time. I stuffed them in pita sandwiches. Thanks for the inspiration little man 👍🏻
    PS … photo, as in photosynthesis, means light in medical terminology. Like, if someone is photo-sensitive, it means they are sensitive to light 💡 Therefore, plants need light to synthesize carbon dioxide into oxygen. LoL I’m such a nerd 😆 Happy NYE 🎉

    I was blessed to be with my grandparents who grew 90% of what they eat during growing season to last all year round and 75% of their meat. They mostly eat pork, chicken and fish that we caught out of the river. My uncles would go to the ocean(we live in the foothills of the blue ridge mountains)and fish all weekend for a freezer full and what didn't get eat, we would have a BIG family fish fry to finish it off. The uncles found this was an extra trip to the ocean to replenish the freezer!😂 I love the way y'all live and inspire others to live off the land as ALL our ansceators did at one time. Happy New Year to your wonderdul family!🎉

    So true Mike. Your kids are doing an amazing job. We are now retired w/3 married kids and 16 grandkids. We raised our kids on our little homestead and they learned to walk in the garden, chasing chickens and helping their dad take care of the goats, steers, and pigs. We taught our kids to can and to butcher our own meat. Two of them live in small towns now and one lives on a small acreage of his own. All of them grown their own veggies and our youngest son has animals too. They have all thanked us for teaching them how to do these things. We enjoy gardening and taking care of animals with our grands too. Very important skills to teach children right from the get go. Besides, being outside every day and connecting with nature is a vital part of our growing and being healthy.

    Wow! They are all growing up so fast! Noooo!😂
    Salah are such a good teacher and very patient with your siblings. You are beautiful through and through!
    And the boys are growing up to be fine young men. Mike, you and Lacy both have done such a good job! I have noticed how confident they have become and have been finding their "place" on the homestead. It is so awesome to see!
    The little guy is so cute! He is watching! He will be a natural at it all! He doesn't know, just yet, how good he has it!
    Mike and Lacy, thank you for sharing your homesteading journey with me. I have been watching your channel for a number of years now and it is like fine wine... only gets better with age!
    I think this is one of the most important videos you have made. I used to teach in public schools gardening to preschool, special needs children. It is so important to learn, no matter what your "level" is. I am here to tell your viewers, if special needs preschool children can have a successful garden, so can you!
    Happy New Year! Take care! God Bless!😀

    Hello again from Sparta NC. I'm 67 and grew up around gardening!! I was out of gardening between age17 and 55. I'm now 67 and moved to Sparta 11 years ago and two years later was once again gardening. I love it!! My health has improved so much!! I've also been canning and freezing for a couple of years🙂. I watched Meg from the Hollars and started cold packing the same way!! This year I want to invest in a small greenhouse!! I love the way Walsh is so patient with her brother!! Till next time stay warm🤗

    Although I grew up in a huge garden, my parents did not really go for veggie growing. My dad had a HUGE orchard and that was yummy as my mom made all sorts of canned fruit , jams and leather. She loved flowers so grew that all over but I am sad we never did veggies, so had to teach myself as my kids now have to teach themselves and learn with me. It is such a valuable skill, but wqe should not forget about the othersustainable skills, like basic maintenance and sewing/knitting and cooking from scratch

What a wonderful daughter and sister you are to help everyone out. Last but not least Josiah the Genius! Hezekiah has all of them to teach him wonderful things about growing food and of course you guys right by their side. You're all so very very special and I thank God that I know you through the wonder of RUclips, but mostly I thank God that I feel like I can call you all, my Friends. Never change!
