The sky looked beautiful at the beginning of the video. Exciting to see plants growing this early, and how you compost. The girls looked so cute with new hair clips. 🤩
❤❤nice video 😊
What a beautiful garden that comes from those rich beds. The children are great workers. God bless a your work . I wish every one could have a garden even if it is small. Makes one health and enjoyabe. The children are growing up so fast enjoy watching your channel.Our Dad had a small garden when we were young, 1949s.
Very nice video. The little girls are growing. Esther is such a hard worker and she has a wonderful, happy attitude.
I struggle greatly with hot composting. I've started a chicken composting system and it's working pretty well for me. Really enjoyed this video! Thank you!
That’s the same starter mix I use from Walmart. Thanks Carrie for the ton of different tips. The purple potatoes are beautiful!
Buttercup is so pretty . I love your gardening tips and advice. I laughed at Esther walking on the cool earth and I'm guessing ,very cold water . One of my boys always loved to run at dawn on the frosty earth barefooted . He thrived in the sharp cold weather. He loved looking at his footprint in the frost too. Haha. Not me , I prefer warm toes. Happy gardening lovelies and thank you for sharing ❤❤
Thank you for sharing. I prefer warm toes too.🙂 Esther enjoys the cold, but doesn't mind the heat either. She much prefers being barefoot whenever possible. Blessings to you.❤
Your kids are so well mannered and behaved! What a blessing!
What a beautiful morning sky. I keep being surprised at how quickly your children are growing. I am fascinated by the comfrey fertilizer and it’s free!
Esther pie is very strong indeed. I imagine she is a very knowledgeable gardener and cook! Thank you for another lovely video. I only have my balcony garden in Paris now, but it’s all good to know. Sending you all love. NB: I am still working in your piano piece. I can sense spring in the air; it’s a time I often want to suspend - the expectancy of new beginnings is something I love. 💕
Thanks for sharing.🙂 Hope you're enjoying the piano piece. And I hope your balcony garden does well for you. Blessings.❤
Beautiful hair clips! The girls are adorable ❤
New to your channel, but LOVING it! I am a home schooling mom of 3 (like you I was a public school and private school teacher prior), I have one that has graduated and is married. You all are such an encouragement. I am sure you know when you have been home-schooling for a long time (I am now well over a decade, I have lost count of the years) you can easily get into a rut. I have really enjoyed the fresh encouragement.
On another note, we have a decent sized vegetable garden for where we live. I am looking through seed catalogs for the spring. I have never really started any flowers from seed and I am wanting to add them in our garden area. I have been seeing all of your beautiful flowers and I am wondering if they are started from seed, or if plants are purchased from nursery.... are they started inside... what are your tips? Thanks!
We are in the same Zone as you and we don't live too far from you. We are just on the other side of St. Louis, practically neighbors! :)
Thanks for sharing a bit of your story.🙂 We usually start all of our annual flowers from seed (zinnias, petunias, nasturtiums, cosmos, calendula, gomphrena, snapdragons, etc.) and usually get perennial flowers as plants (daylilies, hardy mums, hardy hibiscus, hardy geraniums, sedums, clematis, creeping phlox, bee balm, heucherella, astrantia, bleeding hearts, etc.). We have had success starting a few perennial flowers from seed though, like echinacea, salvia, aster, columbine, coreopsis, verbascum, and penstemon. We try to start the perennials early in the greenhouse and baby them along in pots until they get to be a few inches tall, before planting them out in the garden. As you probably know, many perennials multiply readily, so you can just get one or two plants and spread them out over the years.🙂 Hope you you have fun with flowers this year. Blessings to you.❤
Carrie I love your good information on raise beds. I have one raised bed and going to get another one and lots of pots hard to wait for spring. God bless you and your sweet family love your videos.
You are a great mother
I think it’s Josh on Homesteading Family that has videos on no turn hot composting you all might find useful. The kids seem to grow up so much every video I watch!
So glad you all are flourishing, PRAISE THE LORD🙌🙌
Great suggestions! Thanks so much for sharing 😊
Hi to all, wonderful video I’m doing my own compost also and it’s coming out beautiful then I hav just chicken manure on the side that also break down and it’s so thin and fluffy, great job you all are doing god bless ❤ hi Esther ❤
I live in a small apartment ( ground floor ) in 🇬🇧 UK. Inspired by you .. I have some pots, 1 grow bed. & starting to make own compost in bucket.. food scraps, leaves 🍂 etc . Thank you 🙏🏼
This is so encouraging to hear.🙂 Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you.❤

Hello precious Smyth family. Your video was so helpful and seeing everyone working together is so special. I can see your excitement about the spring/summer growing days ahead. ❤
Great video! 😊🙌🏽
Ha I spotted a fellow barefoot walking human 🤗. I have always walked barefoot and at 62 now continue to . I only wear shoes when I go out to the shops etc . My feet are always warm , sometimes even too warm 😂.
Nice video. Thank you for taking the time making them . Blessings 🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing! Blessings to you.❤
I enjoyed the video, thank you!!
Thanks for your video ❤
Awesome video .
I know you have mentioned in other videos some of your favorite books... could you please share again with me your favorite flower gardening book, thank you!
Nice😊
Can't believe 1st video I found was Biddles birth. She must be about 5. Have never missed a video.
She just turned 8! Time is going so fast. Thanks for watching for so long. Blessings to you.❤
I would love to know what Esther wants to do when she grows up. I never wore shoes as a kid & still don’t like them. Nothing like being barefoot in the garden.
At this point, Esther wants to keep doing what she's doing, homesteading and gardening, when she grows up.🙂 Glad to hear that you have good memories of being barefoot in the garden. Blessings.❤
