    Your videos have become an invaluable part of my life during trying times, and not so trying times. They are inspirational, uplifting and "chicken soup for the soul". I get lost in your garden, if only for 20 or 30 minutes. Everything is right in the world and cares of the day dissipate. I can't wait for spring.

      Well said! Edward thinks it's one of his best and is a bit disappointed by the viewing figures which are lower than some others. I think however that the view figures are a bit misleading because the actual minutes watched are very high. Often a view is just a click and then gone!

      @Concojone5 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@CharlesDowding1nodig That's interesting. My favourite videos of yours are this one and your small garden series, plus those showing off your garden in all its splendour. These have one thing in common: "look, this could be your life, you could be picking these delicious things for your meals" / "you could be living in something beautiful as this garden." Interestingly, these don't have the highest view counts, that seems to be reserved for "here's how to grow vegetable XYZ"-type videos. -- If Edward does a great job on a video, I'd expect more minutes watched (check!). However I wouldn't expect more views, simply because when someone decides to view (click), all they have is a title and thumbnail picture. The thumbnail of this video is okay but I wouldn't call it eye-catching. The current title is good. "Fresh greens in Winter" would be another good one, perhaps a little more telling. Or anything with "with Charles (Dowding)" although here I'm just speculating :) Hope this helps!

    I totally agree about the sprouts after a frost! They really do taste so much better. My grandad wont pick any until there has been a frost. Also if we get some really good frosts it will stimulate them to produce tons of flowers in the sring and summer for those wishing to get seeds especially if they have a heirloom or heritage type. Honey bees love the flowers too as do bumbles.

    • @ricos1497
      @ricos1497 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Have you tried the leaves of the sprout? Maybe an acquired taste, but I really enjoyed them. Shredded finally, mustard dressing and then added to a wrap or flatbread with other ingredients and they tasted excellent. Similarly, shredded and fermented (like cabbage) was also good.

    How nice must it be to have acces to so many greens like that in the winter. All these colours are missing from this long and very cold canadien winter we have here. We eat heavy food, but this looks so refreshing.
    I started studying agro-ecology last september. Our classes are for the most part on the computer. Hard to learn on how to care for soil and plants like that, but we make it work. Now, in the middle of winter, it is very alienating to study agriculture, when everything is frozen and we need to stay inside. But for real, seeing you and your garden always reminde me why I am doing what I am doing and what good it brings me.
    So for all of that, thank you.

    Hey Charles! Initially I was impressed with the sporty beard (not as long as W.G. Grace's yet) and the new trug, but the sound of each green you harvested would have been worth braving the cold for. One of the highlights of our cooking calendar each year here in the subtropics is a winter soup that includes a lot of what you are harvesting in this video. I enjoy brussel sprouts for its really deep and earthy flavor. I understand how you feel about parsley and I have made simple parsley salads in the past that include as little as parsley and halved grapes. Whenever I read the phrase snap frozen I will always remember this post. Stay safe and test negative my bearded friend!

    Your garden looked very pretty under all that frost. We were astounded to have inches of snow last week here in Doncaster. I've been pulling different varieties of my favourite vegetable, the humble Radish, of course, and just thought that I'd mention if people don't like Swede/Turnips, as I don't, they may want to give growing Sakurajima Mammoth Radishes a go. They stay crisp, juicy, and sweet, but very mild tasting, not radish like at all. Can grow huge, depending on how much room you give them, and very versatile for cooking😃

    After 35 Years of gardening and diverse trials and errors, like the ABC method of Gertrud Franck, I changed my garden to no dig with compost last year and I am glad. I am living in Lower Saxony. The soil is very sandy.

    Looking like quite the silver fox with that beard! Thanks so much for the inspiration as I look out over the blanket of 3ft. snow here in Upstate New York. It’s getting me motivated to get my seeds in order and start planning for the spring when I can actually see the ground again.

    For the first time ever (thank you for the inspection) I have tried winter growing this year. Love going into the garden to get sprouts, kale, cabbage, broccoli and leeks. Will be growing more next year! I feel it really grounds me and makes me appreciate and value of food. Thank you Charles for sharing an inspiring me with your skills and enthusiasm 👍
