The August Garden | It's A Wild One
This week I'm playing catch on what I've been up to around our farm. We pick wild plums from our CRP ground and apples from our backyard orchard. There's pumpkins being harvested & more tomatoes than we know what to do with. I talk about how the raised garden beds are doing & take an honest look at the weeds that are winning the battle. I introduce you to three new dorper\ katahdin cross ewes that joined our flock & are now out with our katahdin ram for hopefully late winter lambs.
Come walk around the yard & the wild August gardens with me.

    Hello from my northwest Florida homestead. I just saw your video pop up in my recommended list. Happy gardening, sheepherding, and other animal husbandry! I'll check out your other videos soon as I get a chance. I am zone 8b Florida. I saw you are in Aledo, IL., is that zone 5b? Your microphone is very good and no wind noise at all. I don't have a microphone yet but I been looking at what kind to get because if I'm not holding my phone when I do videos then no one can me. I know what you mean about videoing for your own record, that's me too and to let friends and family see what I been doing.

    Fun fact: unwashed eggs will stay good for 28 days out on the counter, and even longer in the fridge. Please note that this is unwashed eggs, ehich sre not sold in supermarkets in the US, and once refrigerated do no unrefrigerate your eggs!

      It's good you're realistic from the get go. The issue with the sound is called clipping... Basically it has to do with the volume at which you are recording your audio you can research on it and find how to solve the issue. New subscriber from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪 Great work.
