    Oversized zucchini are the best for zucchini breads! Chocolate banana and cinnamon nutmeg are my two favourites! Don’t knock it till you try it

    What an incredible accomplishment for your first year on a "new to you" homestead! It's obvious how much hard work you have all put into your gorgeous, incredibly productive garden. Thank you for the tour, I really enjoy seeing other families gardens. I'm in Western WA and it's been a rough year for cukes and tomatoes here as well; my harvests have not been near the size that they were the past few years. Have a wonderful weekend!

    Man!! Watching this video made my fingers itch to get in there and pick, pull, dig and cut!!! I like that cattle panel method of hanging onions to dry. That's one i haven't seen yet.

      My husband would use drying racks (frames made out of chicken wire) to cure the onions.

    Excellent haul. Loved the train in the beginning. We lived next to a track many years ago. I sure miss it. It took a long time to adjust to not being next to it. Almost could not sleep without the horn and the click clack of the wheels on the track.

  • @debbiebix

    @amandaevensonthehappyhippi5110 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I love every aspect of your homestead, and your family is absolutely wonderful!! Good job guys!! My tomatoes did surprisingly well this year too considering the cold wet spring start we had here in upstate NY!! I also love the little secondary broccoli heads! My cukes did not fair well either but I had an abundance of green beans, now stored away to enjoy this winter!! I am inspired by your videos!! Have you guys done any work with companion planting systems? Similar to the Native planting of the three sisters together? I have had great success growing carrots among my tomatoes! I have a small yard with one raised bed so I try to maximize my use of space , but space does not seem to be an issue for you lol!! I love to see all of your improvements and modifications!! Thank you for sharing your lives and journey through homesteading with us all!!

  • @mikecourteau6567

    I love watching your videos. I've actually binged watching them! I just watched the video on harvesting and preserving herbs. Many herbs can be harvested and hung to dry but I've never seen one doing this with basil. Is there a reason it could not be done? Iknow basil leaves are extra sensitive but what would prevent me from hanging them to dry?

  • @mattfinchdesign
    @mattfinchdesign 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The bean tunnel is an excellent idea, going to copy that one!

  • @plante_n_seeds4505
    @plante_n_seeds4505 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Your grapes look fantastic! I'm glad to know if my tomatoes don't ripen, I can take them in and let them finish ripening inside. There are so many on the plants this year and I don't want to lose them.

    • @PatsyMellen
      @PatsyMellen 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Plante_N_ Seeds, my friend would wrap in newspapers and put into boxes to ripen. Had tomatoes in November for deer camp.

  • @calliefournier4545
    @calliefournier4545 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It’s hard to tell from the video, are the green beans planted outside the cattle panels? Have you ever done squash to climb up cattle panels like that? Thinking it would be a space saver. Love your videos!!

  • @RoseFelton
    @RoseFelton 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Love, love, love your garden. So envious! I especially love your bean tunnel. Makes me wonder if I can do something like that in my little garden.

  • @elenatwine7073
    @elenatwine7073 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Maybe for the next year, would be nice to see what you do in the garden weekly or monthly, planting, fertilising, harvesting different crops. Do you use stive solomon method?

  • @homesteadincrazy7773
    @homesteadincrazy7773 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    try companion planting with basil or nasturtiums for flea beetles. Just a though.

    Looking good! Your hard work paid off indeed. Thank you for sharing, by the way, I am going to write down some stuff I saw in this video, so that I can find it when I start our vegetable garden (hopefully somewhere before next summer-season...). Things like that cattle panel for curing onions or straw not only as mulch on, but also between the growing-beds. I need to learn a lot :D

  • @EricaD61

      @PeasAndChoiFarm 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, please. Would LOVE to see how you make the bean tunnel. My garden has really suffered in the heat and intense sun this year, and I’m hoping your bean tunnel would alleviate some of that.

  • @stephaniejohnson3739
    @stephaniejohnson3739 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Absolutely loved this video and seeing your abundant harvest! I also love your bean tunnel and will definitely be making one for my garden next year. Your helpers are sure cute too!

  • @hayleyroy4810
    @hayleyroy4810 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Josh - Could you go through some of the garden tools/supplies you use - and maybe some suggestions as to where to get them? Like the cattle panels, where? What size? (I love the tunnel!) and maybe how much is too much to pay - the one's I can find are quite pricey. The ground cover etc... And what you plan to put into place for the watering system and how. Mother nature dropped a tree on my garden this year and destroyed everything. My que to start fresh I guess!

  • @homesteadincrazy7773
    @homesteadincrazy7773 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    What kind of okra did you try? It also should be in the sun more - anywhere you have lots of sun and heat. if you didn't use this one, try Clemson spineless, it is an heirloom and starts producing at about 10 inches high. Heat is what you are missing though. Plant on the south side for sure. It grows great here in North Alabama.

    Nice !
    Was a late start here in ontario canada. Ill be having fried green tomatoes it looks. And some smaller cucs. But got quite a few nice cucs and some amazing off the vine beefsteak tomatoes.
    Here its sooo nice having tomatoes with actual taste ! A nice deep red inside too !
    Just did a small raised bed garden this season.
    Its been many years.
    Next season im going to go alot bigger and plant early.
    Ill start plants inside come early spring.
    Great lifestyle.
    Enjoy your posts. Thank you.
    Cheers from canada.

    This may be a dumb question, but how do you water your garden? Do you have a video on that? I'm in South Texas and seriously thinking we're need to move to a greener place if we want to grow a big garden. Love your channel! Thanks for sharing all your great info!

    Hey! You mentioned how you love Okra, and doesnt do well at your place! I have a suggestion for you! I am growing ,even, as I speak Okra in plastic mop buckets from dollar tree and galvanized foot tubs and various pots and one 7 gal grow bag.It has gotten abt 5 1/2 - 6 1/2 ft tall!! I m harvesting off my 8 plants abt 7 pids every other day right know zbt 2 nd week of harvesting! If you want Okra , grow in containers!! Wat3r dvery morning , miracle gro every other week 1-2 Tbs per gal of water, after plants get abt 1 ft tall ! Make sure to put drain holes in bottom of pots tubs ,or buckets! I have 10 plants! Good luck!

  • @stoner2439
    @stoner2439 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Random question. With your little ones, as they began teething, what natural remedies did you use?

  • @PatsyMellen
    @PatsyMellen 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    We would cut the seed tops off and wait till the onion tops dried before harvesting them. Have we been doing it wrong all these years?

    What variety of greats do you have? I’ve got Catawba in my little garden here in the UK (don’t ask). You have tons of harvest, how do you process all of it? How many freezers, how many jars do you can? I’m a small (1 person) homestead in the UK, and just wondering how you get it all settled away. And what happens if you don’t have enough to process at harvesttime? (I know you probably don’t have that issue, but a small homesteader like me and a lot of inclement weather makes harvesting in such a way quite difficult. Love your channel. Just made Switschel!

  • @chloemypet
    @chloemypet 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hiya!! Great Job!! I am interested in learning more about tomatioe's..I have never heard of them before. My cucs also did not do so well this year and my tomatoes are just now turning red. We have already had a light frost so fingers crossed the garden can finish up before a hard frost sets in. Would love to see a video on your seed saving techniques I already do the obvious ones but not sure about the beets and such.

    • @TheWatching11
      @TheWatching11 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Susan! "Tomatillo" is the spelling and hopefully will help you in your search. They are pretty straight forward to grow, with few pest and weed issues. The purple variety store longer than the larger green variety. Do keep in mind they are not self-pollinating, so you'll need at least two plants. Good luck and hope you have tons of delicious salsa in your future!
