For the last 5 years, I have only left my house or have been outside for doctor's appointments, a funeral and times I have been in the hospital. Watching your channel is helping motivate me to want to be outside again. Thank you so much for reminding me of how much I love to garden and to be outside in the beautiful weather. You are motivating me to get healthy so I can have a garden again. May God Bless You!!

    Please do keep a file folder with your "soil info" to include your compost company reports, your registration sheet, and notes you gather while researching. Periodically, go back through your soil folder to reacquaint yourself with the information you have because as you become more familiar over time, theninfirmatuin you've gathered will make more sense. It will also enable you to understand a wider variety of a whole host of gardening, farming, and soil related articles. Periodically, add to your file folder new information you find valuable.

At 68, I am definitely going to do raised beds for everything. Your gardens looked so pretty last year with flowers mixed into the veggies and you have talked about that again for this year. I've definitely decided to add herbs, flowers, and veggies in a combination that will make all my beds pretty to look at and fruitful. Thank you for inspiring and teaching this "old Nebraska gardener" some new tricks.

I personally buy my starts form a small local grower who grows a lot of heirloom plants organically. I get punnets for $3 which usually contain about 10 plants.

    I want to thank you, for letting me live vicarious through you. I'm not able to do any gardening right now. I'm learning so much from you, hopefully I can put it to use someday. I tell my husband that I want to be like you when I grow up. We get a laugh, (we're in our 60's). We love to watch the chickens, they are good supervisors lol, they make such cute noises too.

    Thank you so much for this soil test recommendation. We have been wanting to find an easier test for years as we too have been so confused by our local extensions results. Just ordered a kit. Thank you Becky!

    Becky, my dear girl. What a wonderful life you have created. Your business "Acre Homested" is so very exciting. Your YourTube channel and Scratch Pantry are informative and entertaining. I really enjoy the snipits of your personal life and getting glimpses of your living room, sun room and that view! What a beautiful kitchen work environment, your desk is right there for you to be able to compartmentalize work and personal life. As an entrepreneur, scheculing time is most important. You are my inspiration and hero! I'm retired now, but most of my working career I was owner, operator. Love, love, love you and what you are contributing.
