A Different Chick Farm
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 20 มิ.ย. 2017
We are a small Certified Organic family farm on just under 6 acres in Johnson City, TN. We have about half of our farm planted in fruit trees, such as apples, peaches nectarines, pluerries, cherries, plumcots, plums, pears, blackberries, raspberries and more We also have backyard flock of chickens we raise, all while producing about 80% of our food. We love growing rare and heirloom fruits and vegetables. We try to do weekly updates on our farm during the growing season. We strive to be more self sufficient every year and love sharing the journey. We also are a grower, supplier and enthusiast for Super Hot Peppers.

Nice video you two. Hey Daniel, what’s your favorite thing to eat from the farm, and what’s your favorite way to eat it?
@greenman8644 Daniel loves Figs, sweet potatoes,and Sweet Peppers. He eats the figs fresh, sweet potatoes baked or as fries, and sweet peppers anyway you have them.
@@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard I bet some fresh figs and some sautéed sweet peppers would be nice on top of a sweet baked potato 😋. Thank you. You both have a wonderful day.
Seems like there is several super hot growers in Tennessee
@fathead7140 I am sure. We have been growing superhots for about 13 years. We started with Red Ghost, Apocolypse Scorpions, Yellow Trinidad Scorpions. We have been growing Orange Habs for 26 years, but now we are growing around 15 varieties of Habs.
I wanna come and taste test!!!
Come on over!!
❤ shopping on the farm!
@@donnahicks384 I guess it is the way most people used to do it.

👍👍🌺🌹
@@fotyfar thank you.
Radishes are great baked with bacon.
Well, I don't even care for hot peppers, but you made it interesting to hear all these varieties, most of which I've never heard of before. My dear departed Hubs was the one who liked the hotter stuff, I used to fling any hot peppers from my nachos over to his plate, haha!
@rbud57 I am glad you liked it. We grow Sweet to melt your face.
New subscriber - great camera work! Very steady and well centered. 👍
@rbud57 we try, but only so much we can do with a phone camera and the cats don't help either.
Blessings 🙏🙏🙏
@fotyfar thank you so much. Are you planting a Fall/Winter garden?
@@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard only turnips but thank u so much for all ur useful vids 🌺bless ur hands
Wow! I don't even know how you can find your way around the pepper forest! That's an awesome group of plants. Hope Tiffany feels better soon.
@@ErnieHatmaker thank you, we are feeling pretty good now. It is definitely a job finding the peppers in the forest.
Nice garden..
@nicodumitrana6672 Thank you very much. Hope you are having a great day.
I like poppin some sunrise bumble bees or green striped zebras in my mouth😋. I just tried a sart roloise, very interesting tomato, sweet and tangy.
@greenman8644 we like the Sunrise Bumblebee a lot. Have you ever had an Amethyst Cream Cherry?
@@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard no but I want it now🤤😆. My girlfriend works at a non profit farm. It’s small, about 3 1/2 acres, she’s gonna recommend it 👍
excited to see what is up.
@@alyssastanley8083 thank you so much.
Super nice video..
@nicodumitrana6672 thank you, we love our pepper jungle, and why not have fun.
@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard It looks super nice, because you have the love ❤️ 😍 & passion for it..congrats..
@@nicodumitrana6672 thank you so much
Maybe there’s something like a mechanic’s creeper that’d help in your army crawling? You’ve had some great growth these past few weeks. I’m impressed at your lack of weevil damage I’ve been suffering from. Very jealous!
I agree with the theory about spacing out your peppers versus them crossing. I experimented this year by just growing them all together. When I start my seeds in the winter, I'm going to pay close attention to how my peppers turn out.
@@ErnieHatmaker what spacing did you use this year?
@@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard They were placed about 8 inches apart with either marigolds or basil between them.
@@ErnieHatmaker that is definitely tight.
Great Job! Helped a lot! Thanks!
@@RayRay-dr7og glad it was useful for you.
Can’t see how this would be beneficial. All you are doing is killing the leaves and not the roots . But, I believe it would be a great tool fighting tick infestation.
@ctb2814 if you catch the weeds at thread stage you can destroy the energy of the root unless it's like crabgrass. On older weeds like these you have to flame them several times. It also helps to destroy the weed seeds from year to year
Great update. How much of the season do you have left? Looks like everything is pumping now.
@capsicumco we are just getting started. Our first frost is normally mid October. It will be insane harvest in about 4 weeks, if nothing goes wrong.
@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard wow that's a good season so far. Jeremiah 29:11
@@capsicumco we are happy so far.
Thats an impressive pepper farm you have there. Being an organic farm what kind of feeding/fertilisers are you using for your peppers? Thanks
@capsicumco thanks we rotate our chickens onto it for part of the off season, we do cover crops, and we use a blend of Agrothrive and Harmony organic fertilizers also. Do you grow peppers
@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard sounds like you have some good products. Have you ever tried fish hydrolysate? It's easy to make but I'm not sure of the price to buy compared to your other brands you're using. It's the best stuff I've used.
It's my first year and I am growing super hots. They're getting big but no fruit yet. I can't wait until some peppers are ready
@samueljackson856 some superhots take a long time to set fruit. While others set fruit much faster. What varieties do you have this year?
Wow 4,000 plants! Great job I hope you pepper jungle grows big and you get a big harvest.
Awesome pepper video! Can’t wait to see more updates as they get bigger! 🌶️
@@TylerT86 thank you so much.
Cool bug.

Didn't realize you were on TH-cam.
Absolutely, we thoroughly enjoy engaging with everyone.
Keep up the good work
Thank you, we are trying
do you ship hatching Rhodebar fertile eggs ? Thanks
We are not currently breeding Rhodebars
We ship eggs
@@dannypritchett01 do you have a website I can order from ? Where from ? thank you ! :)
@@TwistedRootsVanVelzerPress I do but I have the website in maintenance mode which disables it til I have time to run the entire business again. I actually have a little rhodebar inside at the moment that a guinea hatched because I knew the guineas eggs wasn't fertile. So I gave her some rhodebar eggs. The first egg hatched early. So I brought the little guy in to love on. I'm trying to think of a way to give you may contact without getting millions of spam emails or texts from bots.
I don't understand why people still spread these old tales. Many soils already have sand in them. There's a thing called sandy clay. So there's no problem adding sand at all. I'm starting to experiment with this too.
I understand completely
Greasing the shaft and universal joints doesn't hurt!
Even spraying WD 40 is better than no thing! My favorite is gear oil, W 80/90.
😮❤
Awesome!!
Can not wait. What color watermelon is your fav?
@@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard I have only ever eaten the standard red. So you will have to introduce me to some new varieties!
This was a great video, I’m a first time pepper grower doing ghost, jalapeño, habenero, and shishito this year
Those are staples in our farm. Always grown, and enjoyed. Thanks
We preserve our chilli peppers sometimes by pickling in apple cider vinegar (not my favourite way but practical and the left over vinegar is so beautiful that it’s worth it for that alone) freezing in vacuum packs (which is pretty good), by slow drying in a low oven (for flakes and seasoning powders) or by roasting, then jarring and topping up with sizzling hot olive oil (favourite, it keeps for over a year and is so good). Our favourite preserving chilli peppers are Lemon Drop, Pot Black, Satan’s Kiss and Padron.. though we eat most of our Padron Tapas style by grilling or flash roasting them with a sprinkle of sea salt, in the manner of the Spanish people. We only grow for ourselves, only grow a fraction of the varieties that you produce annually so I’m learning from you, thanks👍
I have never grown Pot Black ot Satan's Kiss
@@ADifferentChickFarmandOrchard pot Black is a UK developed chilli pepper that performs particularly well in a sunny spot outside. It’s a low bush that produces hundreds of small black shiny fruit up to 2 inches long. They eat well in black, with a perfumed flavour and a low to mid heat, but will further ripen to red and take on more heat before summer’s end. Satan’s kiss is just one name for a small round red pepper that is grown commercially in Italy and sold under the brand name Pepper Dew when de-seeded and preserved in a sweet brine, often stuffed with soft cheese. They’re not as hot as their name suggests and I like them with a little heat so I don’t de-seed them, I just roast them whole, pack them tight into hot jars and preserve them in hot olive oil.
Many thanks for your good advice, I really enjoy your banter (you make a great double act), I learn from you. My favourite pepper for drying for powder is Lemon Drop, much loved in Peru and a lovely lemony heat. Perfect for sprinkling on fish or hot grilled meats👍
Lemon Drop is great and makes an amazing seasoning for sure. Glad you enjoy the videos. Please like and share with friends.
Fresh Garlic is awesome
Fresh local year around produce would be great.
I Was wrong. YOU WERE/READY TO ROLL. GREAT JOB...
Man you are practically ready to roll.
We use that thing all the time now, especially in the greenhouses.
Might wanna wax and oil that baby. Dennis
