We want to share our passion for efficient, sustainable homesteading that brings the family together. On our homestead we do chemical-free gardening, grass-fed milk and beef, pastured eggs and broiler chickens, and free range children :) We love to go on adventures as a family, so if we're not workin on the farm, we're probably hiking or out getting ice cream. We're all into DIY, and being inventive and creative. We believe in homesteading that's sustainable, not just sustainable homesteading. In other words, we want to show you that homesteading doesn't have to wear you out to the point that you give it up. We've seen it happen, and almost came to that point ourselves. So go ahead and take a whack at that subscribe button if you'd like to join us on this crazy ride. Get ready to learn and be inspired! - บันเทิง

I could not stop laughing when the kitten scared you, mostly because I do the same thing, im always scaring myself with something, then have to laugh about it!
I totally jumped!!
The lizards in our garden always startle me.
I thought it was going to be a snake...lol.
My cat scares me on purpose all the time. He sneaks up on me when I'm busy and not looking and lets out a loud meow. Lol 😆😊
Yes me too. 😂
I had a kitty scare me in the garden today too, except I don't own a kitty. LOL. I love see the two of you work together to make a lovely life.
Michelle, please at some point share your caramel popcorn making
Yes!! Please do the popcorn recipe!
For tomatoes I buy some little clips and clip the branches to the panels. Very easy to put on and take off. I reuse them every year. They just squeeze and clip.
I thought those little clips were unnecessary when you have string, until I tried them. They are great. Simple to use and easy to remove. Then reuse. I love them.
@@a.p.5429 I thought the same thing. Now I use them everywhere in my garden.
@@a.p.5429Agreed! The clips take less effort, you don't have to measure out/eyeball the length, trim or tie anything, just clip and done. For years I had been using jute twine or soft rubber coated wire tie but not anymore. I used to get my twine and wite tie at Dollar Tree for a buck each and they would last a long time but Dollar Tree also carries the clips for the same price so I just swapped. I still keep the jute twine on hand though for all sorts of other uses like tying up bundles of herbs for drying, crafting and such. TOMATO CLIPS FOR THE WIN! 🎉🍅😂
Would love to see a video about what you do to prevent pests in the garden!!
She says at 6:56 she sprayed BT and peppermint oil twice. Wonder if BT is also organic?
Screamed a couple weeks ago when a snake slithered by, harmless one, thank goodness! Surprises in the garden are some of the fun!
lol the kitten jump scare 😂 Love the garden tour!
😂
When you were talking about your corn 0:56 it looks like there is a tiny bear on your left or did cowboy get really fluffy😂 I am a huge fan of your channel and you and other homesteading channels have inspired me to be a homesteader. I Am a 12 and I have 6 goats 15 chickens 13 pigs a dog and garden on 3 acres of mostly woods.You have inspired me to can and homestead. I love watching your channel and thank you for your inspiration!❤
That broccoli is INSANE! I cannot grow broccoli to save my soul. It is just a given that it is some thing I have to pick up at the farmers market.
Garden is magazine worthy. Hard work pays off. Well done.
The best homesteading blog on utube! ❤️
Hi Cody and Michelle, Love your garden, farm, animals, and family. For the loofah plant, the fruits (seeded) can actually be eaten when they are soft and green. Slice them and sauté with some butter and salt or add some to chicken soups. They are delicious, sweet, and very flavorful. Once they are brown and tough, then they will turn into loofahs. You do have one of the most beautiful gardens! Enjoy the fruits of your labor.
They’re also great to stir fry!
Have you considered growing perpetual spinach. It’s actually a chard but tastes like spinach. It doesn’t bolt and yields are amazing. You can sow twice once in the spring and one in the fall. They say you can continue getting a harvest through December.
I hope that someday my garden looks as good as yours. I pray that in a couple of years of trying I will get there. I like what you guys are doing and hope that you continue making vids.
I love that you mentioned chamomile for stomach aches. I think most people associate it with calming down and sleeping but I find it very helpful for when I have stomach aches and especially gas/trapped gas. Maybe that's TMI lol but I swear it helps
I used to use it brewed and cooled for my babies when they had colic, worked so well ❤
I believe because it has the same calming effect on your digestive system is why it is great for stomach aches!
Ohio weather!!! Got to love it. I love seeing videos like this of how you can do so much with what you have. Not sure why people think 20+ acres are required to feed a family. You guys are awesome.
What broccoli variety do you use? Mine never get heads that big. Also.m, what was the other thing you said you sprayed it with besides the peppermint oil? Thank you for sharing with us.
The luffa are great, they look like zucchini for canning and freezing we like peaches and cream corn
I also use the cattle panels for trellising tomatoes, but i use clear plastic clips to help train the tomato plant to the panel.
@@farmgirlzz2319 same here. I have been using the same clips for several years now as well so it’s worth the little bit of money they cost. I use them for anything that I trellis.
I use zip ties. Anna In Ohio
We love your channel.
I aspire to have a garden like yours.
It is our second summer here.
We live in Texas, and I have not successfully grown tomatoes here.
I definitely didn't have any trouble before we moved to this area.
People say it's the heat.
Its always hot in Texas.
We moved from Central Texas to Northwestern Texas.
So, it's not a big change.
We have blossoms, but they wither and fall off.
My herbs are growing like crazy.
We definitely have lots to learn.
Thanks for sharing, and any tips would be appreciated.
Your garden looks amazing! Your hard work is paying off! The kitten scare was hilarious 🤣. I thought for sure a snake or something, but a kitten??? 😂😂😂
Totally 😂
😂
A beautiful garden for sure. Thanks for the update.
I wanted to thank you for mentioning Berlin Seeds!! I recently received their catalog and wish I had gotten it this Spring!. The selection and prices are wonderful! We live in Colorado in zone 3-4 so we are way behind you on gardening. I love your videos and at my age 69 I am still learning! You have me so excited to try growing more strawberries next Spring! Thank you two so much for what you teach all of us each week! Love your videos!
Thanks for beautiful garden tour! Love new ideas. Please make a video of harvesting the dried beans whacking the pillow case. 😁😆 I like learning. 🤩💗
1 cool tip for having sweet greens, if they turn our bitter we always soak them for about 30-60 mins in very cold water and then spin and enjoy
Your garden is incredibly beautiful! WOW❗️You Two do a great job with videos, always a pleasure to watch 🦋💜
Thank you so much!
Your garden is amazing! Wish I had that much growing space in the sun. Unfortunately most of my garden space is now under the shade of the fruit trees, so I'm forced to grow tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers and peppers on the roof of my workshop in containers, as it is the sunniest place. It works surprisingly good though, and this year I pruned some of the fruit trees more than usual, so I do have some raised beds in the garden as well. However I still didn't manage to make enough space for all the potatoes, onions and garlic I wanted to grow. But learning to grow better and better and transferring it to our kids is probably the best part of that journey, and you're a great inspiration for me and my family indeed, thank you very much for that!
Michelle, I just wanted to tell you what a wonderful job you and Cody did speaking at the conference👏👏👏.
Grapes look great!! Everything does!
We do 2 cattle panels beside eachother with room inbetween for the plants. That way the branches can lean on either side and there is no Tying needed
I make a hash with potatoes, carrots, peppers, onions and hamburger and put sage, rosemary, thyme, and salt and pepper. Sometimes I will add eggs for extra protein. Really good.
This is the first year I've grown broccoli. I started it from seed and was so pleased. Mine got fairly large and had no bugs or worms.
Beautiful garden! Mine is at that point to where everything is so green and the weeds are down and it’s just so much fun walking through it!
BASIL LEMONADE- 2-4 ounce of basil juice from juicer unless you love the flavor- then more
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 gallon of water
sugar to taste
Garden tours are my favourite! Especially at this time of year because here in Australia it’s freezing and I’m coveting your season!
That would be a nice winter balm 😁
Rosemary is the best herb for memory!
Everything is looking SO good! You guys are killing it!
You tie the indeterminant tomatoes to the fence with cotton string. Beautiful garden!
My loofas are about 15 feet now (I’m in Texas) and my goodness they’re still just going for it!
Can’t wait to see yalls harvest
With the trellis u’ll want 1 luffa plant per side of the trellis. And u will still need to weekly trim the plant once it gets to the top. When u trim it, it will help the plant focus on the first luffas it makes. Which is good cuz otherwise your luffas wont finish before a frost. They are so beautiful but do take some active maintenance.
I left my garden for six days. Our grandson watered and we had rain, but nobody was on weed patrol, so you can guess what I came home to. Your garden looks wonderful!!! God bless y'all and keep growing
Straw can be your best friend in the garden
I’m growing loofah for the first time this year myself! Mine are on a cattle panel arch trellis, and it is way plenty strong enough! We have discovered that if you pick them young, you can cook them up like you would zucchini and even make a zucchini bread out of Young loofah. You have to pick them small though. We’ve been sticking to about the diameter of a quarter. I’ve put away a lot of graded loofah for bread as well. I think I currently have 8 to 10 bags of loofah ready for individual loaves of bread. they are portioned out in one and a quarter cup bags because that’s what my recipe calls for. I’ve always had an impossible time with the zucchini. I can’t wait to see what y’all do with it! They are in my outer garden bed tour. I have five plants on a double cattle panel arch trellis. I know, I know. Already too small! Lol ha ha ha.😂
I cultivate your land, maintain the house, and repair all your supplies
Love the kitty scare!! Made my morning!! watched it several times for the laugh🤣 I used leaves on my potatoes this year because of you guys - Love it!! Your garden is Gorgeous going to find more & more & more leaves this year!!
Try clips for your tomato trellis, I have used them for years, they are super cheap too. No more vines breaking trying to weave them in place. Love your channel.
Omg I have never seen broccoli so huge 🤯😍
It probably seems like a little thing to most people, but THANK YOU for cutting out the chewing part! I watch a couple gardening channels who like to crunch on produce they picked and then talk with food still in their mouths. *crunch* *smack* this is just *smack* SO good *crunch* It's like fingernails on a chalkboard, so I skip through their videos until they are finished eating. 😂
So jealous of your basil!!! Looks amazing!
ECHINACEA TEA!,, MAKE A MIX OF HERBS TEA FOR WINTER COLDS!, DON'T FORGET TO ADD THE RASPBERRY LEAF& COMFREY!
Your tomatoes look great. You can use tomato clips to hold them up to the trellis as they grow. It works for me with my tomatoes on my trellis as they grow taller.
I live in mid Michigan and have a garden but nothing like yours, it's just awesome.
Enjoy watching your channel! I am also at #19 on the collaboration list. I have enjoyed most on the list. Thank you!!
I ordered LMNT a couple of weeks ago from your link and a couple days later went to Buffalo to visit family. Imagine my surprise when my nephew is drinking a can of LMNT! I said "wait! what are you drinking!!! Then proceeded to tell him that I had just ordered some for myself! He loves it and I tried a bit of his can and loved it too! Thank you for such a great channel. You two are the best! Love everything you both do and talk about. Thank you from New York!
Use some cotton strings or strips of cloth to tie those side shoots on those tomatoes up on the panel.
I love how y'all rocked your casual look on stage! You're there for business!
Your garden looks amazing 😅😊 Your garden content is so refreshing 😊
I am a multi-professional worker with an excellent mentality in performing work
You guys are amazing! I love seeing what you do with this amount of space. I grow only in containers, so this is really cool to watch. I learn a lot.
5:41 professional gardener 😂❤😂❤
Would love to see a recipe for the caramel popcorn! 😋
Helpful hint: Strawberries lifespan is 3 years. I noticed your berries were very small. After the 3rd year you should have an alternate patch and replant every three years. This way you get huge very sweet berries. Love your channel. I am so jealous of your broccoli. I cannot grow brassica's to save my soul. I believe peppermint is for tummy aches and camomile is to help sleep.
Hey, you can eat loofahs, did you know? My family used to grow the kind with splines, that look like giant okra pods - we called it "running okra". We cooked it in a not very healthy but extremely delicious way - and I urge you to try this at least once. (1) Harvest gourds when large but not too fibrous; (2) trim off splines and slice into thin (1/8 inch thick) rounds, like hamburger dill pickles, but bigger diameter; (3) lightly salt each slice and make stacks 6-10 high on a plate in the fridge - this helps extract moisture; (4) after maybe 30 minutes when the slices have lost moisture, coat each slice in flour; (5) pan fry till crispy and lightly golden; (6) remove from oil with a spatula and let drain on paper towels on a plate. They are delicious like home-made potato chips or fries, but have a very different delicious flavor. Enjoy!!!!!
Thanks for the tips!
You can buy some tulle bags online to cover the clusters from the birds.
The wind just flatten my six foot corn stalks.
Sorry 😞
Your garden is so beautiful.
Thanks for the grape update!! We just started ours this year. I hope you have a great harvest. Also, great job on the onions!!!!! 🎉🎉
Thanks! Hope it goes well for you too 😊
I just discovered your TH-cam account. I just love both of you sweet family and you explain so much. I just love watching your shows. You’re doing such great work both of you. Thank you for entertaining me With all that info.
Thank you and we’re glad you’re here!
Thanks for the tour. Love seeing the progress. Congrats on all your grapes!
Beautiful and bountyful! Blessings!
That’s a beautiful massive garden!
Sending support, love, and kindness from Lexington, MI, USA.
Your garden is beautiful! Thanks for the tour!
I love your videos. Bless your sweet family.
our cucumbers and zuchini are going crazy, weve already made 4 gallons of pickles
You all have a spectacular garden!! Well done!
Luffa plants are so awesome they are really a beautiful plant and the bumbles love them. A word of caution though...they do stink after the luffas get big. It's not really horrible or anything just not a pleasant smell. But they produce so many luffas. I literally grew 4 plants 3 years ago and still have enough to last till next summer 😊 no more buying sponges for me ❤ love the tour for your pretty garden
Good to hear thanks!
Everything looks amazing, great job!
Oh love your garden, beautiful!!!
First time watching. Thank-you for your honesty and tips
Those luffa are going to definitely take over. Get ready😢❤
Mulberry is lovely to harvest too
GORGEOUS!!!!!❤ and PS I grew loofa last year on a cattle panel. It’s definitely strong enough. ❤
Your garden is looking stunning!!
Another awesome video!!! ❤❤❤ I've been binge watching some of your videos. Don't want to miss any advice.
I love seeing ur garden! I find it interesting that we struggle with different plants. Like I am growing in 7b southern Illinois and I have an easy time growing cucumbers but am struggling with basil! lol it’s so interesting to see what different gardeners excel at and what they struggle with too. ❤
Poor Michelle! Cat scared her half to death. 😂
On one of your videos. You mentio ed using your carrot greens as a substitute for something, but I don't remember. Do you? Also, for your grapes, you can buy wedding gift bags with drawstrings to protect the clusters from birds and bugs. Get the 7 inch by 9 inch ones.
I stopped doing the summer potato planting as well. It was space I could use for things that want to grow in that time frame. I do spring and fall potatoes and that works best for me.
I just love your videos and am always so pleased to see one come up. Thanks.
I love thyme and I love Rosemary chicken and Rosemary potatoes
Garden looks fantastic! Good job.
Love your garden and videos!! I use cattle panals for my tomatoes. However I use two panals about a foot to 14" apart so its like a two sided cate for the tomatoes. They work great and i do not even have to tie the plants to them.
Rosemary is one of my favorite herbs to grow! I always have to be careful not to prune it back too much for use. I love baking it into my breads! I just need to plant a couple of more so that my one has more time to keep up. LOL
Good Morning from Texas! Great Video!!!
You gave me some great ideas for my garden next year:)
Good morning from Florida. Love the garden, great work.
You guys seem so happy sine Cody went full time TH-cam
I'm taking ozempic and my jaw dropped watching this episode today. I literally have been finding myself endlessly thirsty I just thought it's because I work 10 hour shifts for a contact center and talk non stop even though I dont Remeber it being this bad a year ago. My doctor just prescribed it to me but we never had a full conversation about side effects or things
love this vvlog. I have afew brollios coming up i the garden and a few caulis's..
Please post often I love your videos ❤️❤
