Great work. Just like the rest of us, we all need to crack on now
Yep, plenty to get on with! Thanks for stopping by Tony 💚
Well done job on Tidying up the garden/allotment Katrina. Yes, it's a good idea to keep part of it untidy for wildlife. Keep safe, warm, well and happy gardening.
Best Wishes from the State of Mississippi, USA
5000 miles away from you !
It is very satisfying tidying up at this time of the year, I've been tidying my plots and tunnels up for the last few days and the difference is amazing with bags of promise moving into a new season...Steve...😃
Steve's Green Side Up is a Fantastic Channel. A Real Gardeners Friend. Check him out👍👍
There’s nothing like a good clean up 🧹
Yep. Winter is probably my busiest time of the year working in the garden and yard.
The short days don’t help! Thankfully they’re getting noticeably longer now ☀️
Great job! Here in central Texas were are preparing for the spring garden, we plant in March. Get's warm here very fast so we started seed in the greenhouse. Our garden is on about 2 acres and we produce lot's of produce, fruit and herbs. We are looking forward to a trip here soon to the UK Cotswold this year.
Winter is a wonderful time to tidy up. Most of my life I waited until spring which is silly since spring is so busy with other things. I've gardened for over 40 years and it's just been the last few that I've worked in the winter in my garden. I hope bunches of new gardeners see this and are inspired to do the same early in their gardening endeavors. Great video Enjoyed it.
Goodness Katrina, what an untidy plot you keep!😃😁😅😉 (Only joking...) Keep up the good work - great videos, thanks!
Great content! So fun to see such a bright day with near 0 temperature!
Dunno how you guys handle it!
Layers, tea and moving heaving things around 😆
I have size envy 😄 My allotment doesn't allow for tall trees and I really miss the feeling of containment you get from hedges and trees and upwards growth. I'd love to have fallen leaves on my plot and a place for the birds to dart between.
Nice to see you again. I'm looking forward to the next growing season. You're not wrong about things to do now in preparation for it👍👍
Such a satisfying video to watch!!!
Thank you for your teaching.
Am from Thailand love your video at garden
Thank you for sharing. Still winter here in NW Missouri-snow and freezing 🥶 temperatures so my spring clear up will be a few weeks in the future.
Yep, winter chores are in progress, trimming and cleaning up and what not. I agree with you on the power tools. I switched to all electric tools over the last few years both corded and battery. I like that there is less maintenance for them and love how quiet they are. I find gas engine noise really annoying in the garden.
You've done well, now maybe I should get busy again. 👍
Hi Katrina
Great blog, well put together and interesting, all very professional.
From Maidenhead
Black Walnut trees pop up like mushrooms in USA, I typically use a herbicide to take care of the regrow before digging out the crown. Brambles are not easy to get out of any allotment when the neighbor refuses to do any work to control them.. The past three years I been a slave to clear the overgrown brush from our property (wild rose, blackberries and trees) before planting fruit trees and berry bushes.
Keep at it!! Too hot too do anything in our gardens here in Australia!! LOL!!
Yes I did started cleaning to 😉👌🐝🐝🐦🐦
I struggled this year doing anything physical in the summer, you only have time to harvest! I will remember to complete summer jobs before the heat! Like putting up the nets pegs for the full fall cabbages
Nice gardener. Greetings from Poland
Nice to watch you tidy the gardens. I still have a couple of feet of snow and a few months of frozen to go, so I will garden vicariously through you! Smiles!
You are a hard worker. Well done.
Its so nice to see young people gardening.
I love your videos, I'm trying to grow crops wild at side of river as I live on a cruiser. I would love a garden but I can always comandere one lol.., keep up great work savvy..
What a legend! You work so hard, you deserve all that the garden produces in spring. Thanks for sharing your tips :-)
So nice to see you out working in your garden very refreshing. Over here in Ontario, Canada we’re in the snow season with minus double digits.
Cleaning up in the spring also is a big job with the clippings, remains of fallen leaves and such.Soon our spring bulbs will be brightening up your space. Thanks for sharing your gardening tasks.👍❤️😊
Good job! Cutting back the jungle takes a lot of effort. Your electric pruners looks like a great tool. I agree with you, hedges make a great natural barrier as well as promoting cover for wild critters. Thanks for being so considerate of the birds! As you know, I'm sure, birds really need are help in this day and age. Here right now, with so much snow and winter to go still, I'm only seeing a few Steller's Jays, Canada Grey Jays, little Chickadees, a local flock of wild turkeys and the local Raven family. Down at the marsh and big lake there are Canada Geese and a few ducks paddling around. Take care and keep gardening! Cheers!
lovely video enjoyed that
It's so cold and snowy here, I dream of the day I can worry about my raspberries getting out of control. :-) Thank you for my winterinspiration!
Hard work, great results!!! 😍☀️🌱
Wow Katrina! What a good information about your Homegrown Garden. I love it!! By the way; what a heavy work in wintertime! Greetings Pieter Smit from the Netherlands!
Great job done. Love all the bird's around. Hopefully they will start to nest .Looking forward to what you grow this year.
I really hope the bluetits return this year 🤞🏻
Hey Katrina. Great video and I totalt agree with you, its so nice to tidying. I would really love to hear more of your educational background and your current job (im thinking going in the same direction.
Great job! I too started tidying up my gardens here in Florida. Started some seeds for Spring. Love all your videos!!!
Thank you 😊
I agree about starting early to clear up. Have been doing the garden since before Christmas but currently diverted into a project to clean the moss off the graves in the local churchyard so they can be photographed and surveyed
It’s lovely to see you back again love your posts Thankyou for bringing us with you to your winter clear up bring us again next time. Take care see you soon. Oh and I am going to order a window bird box for my shed at the plot I havnt seen them b4 so Thankyou for that. I do follow Tania but I havnt seen her recommend these but you have inspired me. Thankyou x🖐
Loved watching 💗
Hello love, so good to see you today. So good to do the prepwork for the upcoming season. Being able to think, plan and do the job is the blessing of a fortunate gardener. Even if you are the one doing the work. take care bye for now
This style video was fun I really liked it
Happy New Year 🙂 Great video on tidying up and lovely to see a Robin too, thanks for sharing & take care 🙂
Saw the intro video. I'm in Montana, and just got a small 10'x20' green house given to me yesterday. It collapsed under a snow load, so had to dig it out. Thinking about installing it with snow still on the ground. Want to get an early start. Lovely accent btw. It is also easily understood. I'd lend you a hand, but the trip would be a bit much.
Great job. It’s beautiful! 😃
What a great video, I have learnt a few things, not on the gardening side but on how to do an interesting video 👌🙂
I love winter tidying videos. Jealous of your leaf mold!
I felt like I had just found a pot of gold! 😄
Looking great - I’m new to your channel but enjoy the prompts of what I can do next. I would love a review of the tools you use - I need to upgrade/improve my gardening kit.
Ps. You inspired me to revamp my shed - just need the pegboard now 💚
Well done good job 👏
You could do à hedge of all the clipping like Wedo in Sweden 👩🌾
Happy New Year
I pray may this year bring lot of good luck to you and fulfill all your dreams I really like your videos
Everything you show in your videos is always worth watching
I enjoy alot
Have a Good time💚
Love your videos. Keep up the great work.
Notification squad 😊
I am Osama, I like it very much, I will always follow you😊
The transparent bird feeder is a great idea - I'll be getting one right away to put on the greenhouse at my allotment! Would you mind sharing where you sourced yours?
Great video
Love the vlog style ✌️
Thanks Alex! 💞
Great job 👍 I would love to do that as well but it's toooo cold, rainy and stormy ⛈ outside to go to the garden by bike (30 km up and down). Do you clean the bird boxes?
Hard work today . good
Eye like star
Nice working sister in cold icy winds
hello home.grown.garden
American robins are ground feeders and won’t come up to hanging bird feeders. We have to put a feeding dish on the ground for them. Idk if English robins are any different
Our robins are traditionally ground feeder too but adapted some what and may try to visit a bird feeder, even when it proves difficult because of their round shape!
I wonder if you have any hollow stems, there may be native bees inside.
Hello, Salutations I have been watching your progress and you are doing well. I also noticed that pot on the a building behind in the next plot may be what is it please, the building is it used ? You do work hard. Home Now Grab a Take-A-Way, hot Bath and tell him you have a headache. See you next time 😂
I have a lot to tidy up
DO IT MY FRIEND. YOU WON'T REGRET IT👍👍
Let’s talk gardening clothes. Do you find the brambles etc get caught in your woollen jumper? What are the best clothes to wear for gardening? I usually wear an old tracksuit with a gardening apron.
I'm one for leaving all the deadheads and brackeny bits for as long as possible too, but once the bulbs are up a few inches I like to get tidied. I wonder if you can help me Katrina, I have 2 Autumn Bliss raspberries which I got last year. Obviously no fruit last year, but should I prune them right down now, there are only two twigs, but not sure what to do. Any help very much appreciated.
I ve bought a lot of nesting houses for birds to hang in the trees in my street
Could you tell me what is important to know ?
Thank you
Marcus
Weeds are wild flowers
If only it was a wee bit warmer. Talking of winter & warmer are you going to tell us the winter warmer squash recipe you mentioned a couple of vlogs ago? Please tell us I’ve still got 2 crown princes that I don’t know what to do with as I’ve never grown them before.
Can you not burn so of that wood/brush right there on the allotment ?
Hey any tips for wild strawberrys anyone? We have a ton of them in our hourse pasture they very rarely have berries ive never done anything with them.
Lol, people that don’t garden have no idea of how physical it can be. Moving all those heavy things. Especially that compost tea.
I was so drained after all this 😅🤪
it's nice to see you again on your allotment sorry but I'm a bit far away from you to help
I would like to help but being two n half hour drive from you I've got a wood chipper and other petrol tools alone with a 7x4 traller but as I'm bit to far from you I dont think I could help
What exact bosh hedge cutter are you using thanks
Bosch 18V AHS 55-20 LI Battery Cordless Hedge trimmer. I paid about £149 last year. It’s incredibly light and quiet. I would recommend it to everyone!
@@homegrowngarden thank it look really light and easy to use I been looking for a new one for a while my old really heavy and cord is such a pain
You didn't have eye protection I noticed - those sharp twigs and brambles can cause a nasty accident.
may i know what camera you are using to take the video?
iPhone 12 Pro Max
:)
Hy cute girl
I buy your rubberboots plz
Great up date , your lovely eyes need protection when doing this type of work, and I take it your not allowed fires ?
We are 🙂
sorry you don't reply to many comments
