Buggy is the cutest potato digger ever! My son, when he was joking with me one time, said ..."Oh Mom, I'm just kicking your knee" instead of pulling your leg. To this day we still say that. That was 50 years ago lol
Way to go, baby girl! Another shirt that says, "I digg'n Taboes!" The image can have a pitchfork in the dirt with potatoes coming out and on top, holding the pitchfork is buggie. She's such a cutie pie. Great harvest!👍🥰
I thoroughly enjoy your family as you joyfully gather your harvest. Your boys are such a blessing & Buggy is the 🍒 cherry on top. God has filled your quiver beautifully. You are doing a wonderful job of preparing your family to send them out into the world as straight arrows balanced in God's abundance. Blessing to you all always. 💜💙 💙💙💙💙💜
Some of my very earliest memories are of helping my grandparents in their garden. Well... I didn't really help much, I mostly ate sweet peas and whatnot LOL. But you know what I mean. It's awesome to see kids out in the garden, knowing where their food comes from. Learning to respect the land and all that important stuff.
What gorgeous memories you just made with Buggy picking taboes, Ben & you got it on camera. That was so beautiful to watch you two picking taboes together.
I've been watching you guys from the start. Like when you took pictures on the beach before you left. I am so glad y'all decided to try to save your marriage and family and leave the rat race. It worked beautifully. You guys are just a joy to watch and God has blessed your family and pulled you all closer to each other and him. You are living and raising your children with love and happiness. Demonstrating for everyone how simple life is so rewarding 💖. Keep up the good work and God bless you all
you've got to make Kudzu Jelly!!!!! You pick the flowers and it makes a very light translucent color and tastes like a cross between apple and grape jelly......YUMMY!
She is the cutest potato harvester ever!! Lol. The wholesome, warm feeling I got while watching this is priceless. Great potato haul!! Thank you Hollars!!😊💜🌙
They will forever be Tabos! Your toddler word growing up, Meg, that became the family word for gloves was glubs. I still think of them that way in my head.....
As much as I love 😘 your tractor n compost buggie digging for potatoes was the very best of all omg,She has gotten sooooooo big n look at her go.She is a pro!!!!!!!!!Princess💕😘🙏 absolutely Beautiful Buggie
Fantastic crop of my favorite vegetable...especially the little ones cooked with green beans and bacon or ham. Congratulations, Y'all have a Blessed day.
Hi... Meg and Ben nice to see you love watching your videos, thank you for showing your video homestead chickens farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣🐥🐄🐖🌱🌺🌹🌻🌼🌸🌷🏡🎥👍👍👍
Your daughter calling potatoes - taboes brings up many good memories. Our children all grown now with their own children called macaroni - macori and catsup - chepit. My husband and I still call them that and we are in our late 70's. Thanks for all you do. Keep up the good work and God bless.
The tractor saves so much time and makes it much easier to do more projects that you didn't have time for because you did everything by hand. Love watching your channel.
I love watching you work in the garden, especially digging up the taboes. (Hope I spelled that right, lol.) Your older sons look like men out there, helping, and your younger two are not far off. What a blessed family and a blessed life.
You have a natural Happy potato Digger with the best little Eye for potatoes in the Dirt😊❣️❣️Buggy is such a cute, adorable little girl & yes, we all realize dad you can get the job done faster yourself but it takes a good parent do you have patience allowing a child to develop and grow and learn them selves along the way I feel like they’re contributing as well to the family.… “BIG-G TATOR” was just Adorable❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️😊 That was quite a nice hall of potatoes just had a two rows!! My dad‘s potato bed up on the sand hill was his pride and joy along with his watermelon‘s. We were never allowed to go into that bed without him. He knew just the right time to dig another day before. He always had lush big plants that everyone came to see. The two secrets I think he had was sand manure, (which he kept a pile of back behind the barn & utilized for the garden as needed) Like you guys, our potatoes were put up in crates on shelves to dry for later use. Those are the best flavor potatoes ever. Good luck on your next crop but be proud of this one❣️❣️😊
Buggy is a gem! With your compost pile remember to never add Bermuda grass clippings to a pile. That stuff is monster grass that just keeps coming back! Glad you are enjoying your new toy!
I think back to the video where you talked about your choice to add another child to your family. Partly it was to celebrate your new life, and to raise a child who only knows this life. It was a good decision. 😁🤣. Buggy is truly a farm girl and she spreads joy and laughter wherever she goes. May the Lord continue to shower your family with blessings, and to use you to bless others. 🥰
Decades ago my sister and I pulled a match kudzu and I decided to put it on my small bush bean garden bed. So I chopped it up by using a lawnmower and I mixed it in the topsoil on half of that bed. I was amazed at how much larger and more prolific that side of the being bad was when it was time to harvest! Amazing!
So awesome watching you and your son on different equipment working towards a specific project. That's a new milestone for the things you can now do so much easier. Stay safe.
Gone are the days where your now very handsome boys would stand there, (wanting to help) but didn't know how. What a team. Shout out to the farm boys!!!!
buggy is blessed great life, great parents and family, great gift Janice congrats well required and will be valued and used, home grown pork, pickle and potatoes delicious meals and fresh and tasty with sauce and greens/mustard
It's so nice to see... Buggy knows more about gardening, fruits and veggies than most of the toddlers...even those who are older than her.. we have hope for the future.. such amazing harvest, the garden is better and better
Ya know we are gonna need a t-shirt that says "Woohoo! Taboes!" on it now! 🥔🥔🥔 Our family still has 'Sketti' night too! Buggy is a gem! Your new tractor is pretty awesome too, that'll help a bunch!
I like that grapple for making your compost piles with Ben! Great idea. Lillianne is so cute helping her dad dig up potatoes, tayboes. Wonderful haul you guys! Thanks for this Hollars!
A woodchipper would turn the woody material into the brown stuff you need to offset the green from the leaves. That would make composting those trees/shrubs much easier. Pto driven chippers are expensive new but maybe you can get a second hand one, or even make one yourself 😀😀
What a great video to watch to motivate me to get the rest of our Russet taters dug up. I planted a 45' x 7' area and so far have gotten 100# of reds and 11#'s of Russets. Our Red's ROCKED it this year!
Such a joy to watch y'all grow together, as a couple, family and in down-to-earth homesteading. Your sons are great, but that little Buggy steals my heart every. single.time. Feel like a distant great aunt or something listening to her vocab development and her helping with the potatoes is so natural! She'll be your one that only can remember growing up in such a manner and no city life! May the Lord pour out His blessings and mercies both in joyful and difficult times...
I didn’t plant mine in the ground because the mice or rats ate a bunch of my potatoes last year. This year I have 20 buckets and at least I know I won’t find teeth marks in them. My motto for compost is…the more I make the less I need to buy! Love you guys!♥️👍🙏🇺🇸🤓
I tell you, hearing little Buggy talk and laugh is precious to me. I'd say you all will call potatoes "taboes" forever now! Like when my son was her age he called popcorn "pa-torn" and fruit cocktail was "fut-cottontail". 29 yrs later I still call them his baby words!! Buggy is at my favorite age of babyhood when they start talking! Bet if you rented some goats they would eat down that kudzu and other evasive weed. There's a local guy here that you can rent goats from to do just that. So you might have a local person who rents out goats for grubbing weeds. Nice taboe crop!! So proud of you all!! Do you have more to dig or is that it for this season? Dad always put ours in a couple bushel baskets after hardening off, and then in our basement that we ate on til the following spring. Meg, you should make some honeysuckle jelly. Recipes are on Google and TH-cam. Easy too.
Bluebuddies is one of my favorites from my oldest and my youngest is 3 so he's still popping off with odd names. Mark is milk, wain is rain... These days will end, I want to carry these words everywhere!
again this video...the best helper ever!!!! I could sit and watch her all day long....she is absolutely adorable. love and hugs to you again baby girl you pick those potatoes lol
Yes very invasive it takes over my yard I have to keep pulling the vines back. I have it pretty under control right now but it creeps up on you if you don't keep an eye out on it . Another great educational video thank you
Don't ever wish that you could get things done faster when they are that age just the fun of watching her picking potatoes is absolutely marvelous and of course she lost interest and you still got it done all of my kids are all grown and got their own families now but I have the memories of when they were little and they were picking maiders I love watching your Channel all of your kids are so fantastically fun and you are such an interesting Papa I love the way that you treat your wife and I love the way that she cooks absolutely awesome thank you for the enjoyment that I get daily from watching you
Nice Homesteading video of knowledge. Buggy is sooo cute. I noticed that the little one is walking around bare-foot and everyone else has boots on. I used to walk around barefoot in the garden, but after stepping on a nail and then a Ground spider who bit me, I wear shoes. Nice garden cat and kids ! Be safe garden kids !
Kudzu is really good for your circulatory system and the leave are extremely nutritious, more than most the other eatable plants for humans, too. One lady would make paper out of it. What about those honeysuckle, too. They are as hardy as kudzu, tho. You are really making a win, win with your decision. Next purchase - chipper? Peanuts are a dig-it crop.😁💗💕❣️
I LOVE the trays that you used to harvest / store your potatoes. It looks like they are nice and sturdy and that they ventilate well. Can you let me know where you found them? ALSO, I just ordered a 3rd function kit for my Kubota L2501. I thought I wanted a grapple bucket, but after watching your video now I know I NEED a grapple bucket. Thanks for sharing, I can't wait to tackle about 2 acres at the back of our 11 acre property that are so overgrown with blackberries we haven't figured out how to begin clearing it. Cheers, Tom
I can attest to if you don’t kill off plants with roots your compost becomes a planter. Did not want hostas and at the time didn’t have a spot to transplant. I brutally ripped them out and when I was wishing I still had them for a new shade bed noticed the back of my compost pile turned into a hosta mound when I was turning. What a nice surprise.
Buggy and her tabos…absolutely precious! Loved todays vlog! Ben your really making the homestead look good…that tractor is gonna be a game changer for sure! Blessings guys-your all so inspiring!💖🙏
Kudzu (and Japanese Knotweed) is a nightmare in parts of the UK, it's considered dangerous with many councils forcing property owners to register removal/management programmes to stop it damaging neighbouring properties as its roots have damaged foundations and caused walls to collapse. As for 'taboes' they had the nickname in our family as "Totoes", but "we" (the business dad worked for, when not mining) grew them by the ton (the average yield was more than 120ton) to sell along with onions and carrots to UK supermarkets. Even in our allotments we grew 60/70lb a year. But we needed about a third more. And like you said it always felt Christmas morning to see what had happened Underground....
Not sure how expensive it would be but a few compost bays made out of concrete blocks would give you walls to work with/against with your tractor. Then when you are trying to grab the compost material to turn it over or even just grab when it is finished you could scrape up against the walls.
such a nice haul of potatoes from a small planting..... Keep adding amendments and compost ... THEN TRY SEVERAL 50 FOOT ROWS of potatoes!!! Cheers for organic gardening!!! Rick in Pa.
It is really nice that you are back to doing frequent videos. So many of the channels I watch have reduced their output or stopped completely. I'm really enjoying seeing your little one in the garden. Blessings to you all.
I’m from Georgia and the roads are just lined with kudzu here! We always thought of it as the bane of our existence! I was watching a video on foraging a few years ago and low and behold, kudzu soup is considered a DELICACY in Europe!😂😂😂 Who knew??? I had no idea it was good for composting! Unfortunately anywhere I would have access to has probably been sprayed with weed killer! But how awesome that you have so much CLEAN fodder and compost material right in your property!
Kudzu tincture, the best thing for headaches!! I learned this from Stephen Buhner's Healing Lyme. We have it back in SE KY. It's great to eat too. The tincture if you don't use alcohol it tastes like sweet tea.
I had a friend who used the paper mulberry to make mulberry paper with the dried and partially pulverized plant matter. Beautiful stuff for calligraphy or bookmaking or whatever.
In our community garden we have the 3 year compost. First year filling, second year rest and third year lokking if we can use it otherwice an other year of rest. We do it with the leftover plants but also with our kitchen raw leftovers. G'D BLESS and greetings from Inge Noordam (the Netherlands/Europe)
Had kinda a frustrating day today. Credit card hacked car problems. But just watching Buggy in the garden brought the joy back. Love you guys and your family. 🙏❤
I have one of those trailers too. My only issue with it is that it doesn't dump dirt or wood chips out without having to shovel a lot out. A wood chipper would probably be a good addition for your compost making experiment. I think I would focus on turning it into manure first if they will eat it. Keep up the awesome work.
Buggy is the cutest potato digger ever! My son, when he was joking with me one time, said ..."Oh Mom, I'm just kicking your knee" instead of pulling your leg. To this day we still say that. That was 50 years ago lol
Way to go, baby girl!

Oh I so echo this comment! God is evident in y’all’s life!
Thanks
I agree and remember that day at the beginning when Ben has short hair and no beard.
Same! I still rewatch "finding home" sometimes! 🥰
Beautifully said! 🙏💖
I really like getting to see you both working with the kids on your farm.
Same
you've got to make Kudzu Jelly!!!!! You pick the flowers and it makes a very light translucent color and tastes like a cross between apple and grape jelly......YUMMY!
Hoohoo - taboes! awesome that you've grown that much in taters for this year! AND you are not the only family that will call them taboes from now on.
This was quite a satisfying vlog: tractor, ripping stuff out, hauling stuff, composting stuff, and digging for Gold.
Buggy is growing so fast. She is a garden baby start to finish!! You guys are doing a great job. Love it!!!
She is the cutest potato harvester ever!! Lol. The wholesome, warm feeling I got while watching this is priceless. Great potato haul!! Thank you Hollars!!😊💜🌙
Hello how are you doing?
She is such a good helper! I love how she loves to help in the garden, her and the boys are living the best life and they all seem to enjoy it! ❤
They will forever be Tabos! Your toddler word growing up, Meg, that became the family word for gloves was glubs. I still think of them that way in my head.....
Glubs 🤣
As much as I love 😘 your tractor n compost buggie digging for potatoes was the very best of all omg,She has gotten sooooooo big n look at her go.She is a pro!!!!!!!!!Princess💕😘🙏 absolutely Beautiful Buggie

That red cat is always with you when you are working at the garden beds. Cute.

OMG that Buggy is just growing sooo fast and her personality is even grander:) Thank you so much for sharing her digging "tabos" 😘
The memories you make now are the treasures of the "later" years that make a family.

🚜 So pleased for you all that you got a nice tractor!! 🤗
Your new tractor is awesome and will be a great help around the homestead I am sure. Buggy is so sweet and she loves her Taboes.
God bless Janice. 🥰
Gone are the days where your now very handsome boys would stand there, (wanting to help) but didn't know how. What a team. Shout out to the farm boys!!!!

Buggie knows more about where food comes from than many people I know, they just think it comes from the store. 😏

I second the Taboes T-shirt. Excellent idea
Great idea for a shirt 😊👍

He also has a lot of saw dust from milling his own lumber he uses that in the chicken coop. Double duty when he adds that to the compost pile as well.

Buggy is growing so fast, and being a great little helper , and she is as bright as a button, to use a very old saying.
Love your videos.
That's awesome guys! Buggy is so adorable, it's great that you have help out and she is in the video for later years!🤗🤗💗🤗🤗
I guess I'm behind times , so happy to see you have a tractor awesome blossom. Nobody deserved one more. I love you too thank you for sharing 🥰
Such a joy to watch y'all grow together, as a couple, family and in down-to-earth homesteading. Your sons are great, but that little Buggy steals my heart every. single.time.

There are no failures only lessons learned. I enjoy watching y'all and your homesteading adventure.
Love watching Buggy in the garden and seeing the boys help out as well.
Tractors are so amazing on homesteads, so happy for you to have one now!
How lucky you are to have these special moments recorded.
I didn’t plant mine in the ground because the mice or rats ate a bunch of my potatoes last year. This year I have 20 buckets and at least I know I won’t find teeth marks in them.

So many blessings! Buggie’s “Wahoo” melted my heart!!
One man's invasive is another's man's abundance.
I love how you research your stuff. Pros and Cons. And I love that tractor. What a wonderful new “Hank”. Fabulous “tabos”
I'm so glad you got that tractor! Bless your Hearts!
Yes very invasive it takes over my yard I have to keep pulling the vines back. I have it pretty under control right now but it creeps up on you if you don't keep an eye out on it .
Another great educational video thank you
Don't ever wish that you could get things done faster when they are that age just the fun of watching her picking potatoes is absolutely marvelous and of course she lost interest and you still got it done all of my kids are all grown and got their own families now but I have the memories of when they were little and they were picking maiders I love watching your Channel all of your kids are so fantastically fun and you are such an interesting Papa I love the way that you treat your wife and I love the way that she cooks absolutely awesome thank you for the enjoyment that I get daily from watching you

I was wondering where they they got those trays from too.
The trays look like soap curing trays. Not sure where she gets them from though. I got some from essential depot but mine are much bigger and bulkier.
I can’t say enough how much I enjoy watching y’all’s vlog. How much all your babies have grown. God Bless y’all
I'm so happy you have that awesome tractor 🚜 ❤️ nice job on the farm 🚜 👍 👏🏻 😀
You can cook and eat Kudzu root and livestock love the rest of the plant.
I can attest to if you don’t kill off plants with roots your compost becomes a planter. Did not want hostas and at the time didn’t have a spot to transplant. I brutally ripped them out and when I was wishing I still had them for a new shade bed noticed the back of my compost pile turned into a hosta mound when I was turning. What a nice surprise.
Buggy and her tabos…absolutely precious! Loved todays vlog! Ben your really making the homestead look good…that tractor is gonna be a game changer for sure! Blessings guys-your all so inspiring!💖🙏
Hello how are you doing today?
I love watching you. Get a real charge watching buggy!
Buggie is the new potatoes girl love it love the new tractor hardly wait to see what next for the homestead
OMG, Buggy digging potatoes, that's epic shot!!!😍
that was a great potato harvest! Your helper was adorable!😊
I just want to say that you guys are super likeable and do a great job of presenting the wholesomeness and nobility of the rustic life.
Kudzu (and Japanese Knotweed) is a nightmare in parts of the UK, it's considered dangerous with many councils forcing property owners to register removal/management programmes to stop it damaging neighbouring properties as its roots have damaged foundations and caused walls to collapse.

Even in our allotments we grew 60/70lb a year. But we needed about a third more. And like you said it always felt Christmas morning to see what had happened Underground....
Daddy and Buggy digging potatoes just made my day! Love you guys!
Not sure how expensive it would be but a few compost bays made out of concrete blocks would give you walls to work with/against with your tractor. Then when you are trying to grab the compost material to turn it over or even just grab when it is finished you could scrape up against the walls.
Awesome potatoes harvest .!!
Great potato haul kiddo! The tractor has really changed things for the better!
Buggy is too cute! She can really spot them taboes 😁😁. That was a good haul.
Now thats adorable her out there picking potato's!! Teaching her the right way for sure!!! 👍💞💞💖💝💖💞💞👍
such a nice haul of potatoes from a small planting..... Keep adding amendments and compost ... THEN TRY SEVERAL 50 FOOT ROWS of potatoes!!! Cheers for organic gardening!!! Rick in Pa.

Now that’s what I call a tater tot! 😉 Great job Sister 👍🏻 And thanks for the motivation to start a new compost!
I think we all should call Buggy....Tater Tot now! 😉
Buggy, as all children are, is very precious 🥰🥰 my grandson had his own words too. Water was ottie, pillow was apo, egg was too-tat. So sweet🥰🥰
my son's was "utiddily room" for utility room.
Hello how are you doing?
I had a friend who used the paper mulberry to make mulberry paper with the dried and partially pulverized plant matter. Beautiful stuff for calligraphy or bookmaking or whatever.
In our community garden we have the 3 year compost. First year filling, second year rest and third year lokking if we can use it otherwice an other year of rest. We do it with the leftover plants but also with our kitchen raw leftovers. G'D BLESS and greetings from Inge Noordam (the Netherlands/Europe)
Had kinda a frustrating day today. Credit card hacked car problems. But just watching Buggy in the garden brought the joy back.
Love you guys and your family. 🙏❤
Buggy is so amazing she has gotten so big💝
What a great harvest.
I have one of those trailers too. My only issue with it is that it doesn't dump dirt or wood chips out without having to shovel a lot out. A wood chipper would probably be a good addition for your compost making experiment. I think I would focus on turning it into manure first if they will eat it. Keep up the awesome work.
Yeah - my old troy built Chipper Vac comes in reallll handy - makes wood chips, saw dust, shredded leaves - cant imagjne bein without it
That grapple attachment is incredible…we seriously cannot wait to get one. 👍😎
Bug/Sister will grow up and watch videos of her antics/escapades. Lovely video. thanks for sharing!
