yeah.... its only 10,000 gold guilders per gross its been that high since King Louis XIII came to power and even now with king Heeren VII the price is still more than a good craftsman could make in say 10 fortnites.
We have a flavour rich big cinnamon tree in our backyard. Though yearly the branches get cropped, we never harvested cinnamon out of it! Your video was cool and enlightening to try this trick next time! This educational fun video is nicely made though at times it seemed like you’re taking high risk hazards! Thank you. Loved it.
I seriously had no idea! I've learned so much in the last two year's. wowzer. Thank you. now I'll go pretend i knew cinnamon was bark the whole time lol. blessings y'all
These guitar solos always get me. It's like, peace, mellow, chill out vibes and then....funk, out of nowhere. It's like I am eating a piece of wedding cake and someone wedged a slice of Swiss cheese in the icing layer 🎂 🧀 🎸
Dave I looked up how to harvest Cinnamon to show my husband and haven’t laughed this hard in as long as I can remember. You throwing a rock at a wasp nest is exactly what my husband will do. He loves throwing rocks. 🙄 Once he took down a wasp nest from our front tree with his squash racket (instead of a rock). Then your saw broke which reminded me of a time when my dad took my husband fishing and twice my husband threw his fishing pole into the lake as he “casted” his line. Thank you for the laughs. You just made of Valentine’s Day. 🤣🤣
Wow! If my fiance and I were in your (two sets of) shoes we would just be in tears we would be so happy! You guys are so fortunate to have such abundance on that property and to have this opportunity. I am so genuinely happy for you both. This was a great video, thank you for posting. I got my mom a juvenile cinnamon tree for Christmas a few years back, so I am now equipped with the method to procure cinnamon! It probably won't taste the same as we are here in Tampa, FL and you are much further south but hopefully it will still be tasty.
Hey man! I'm a conservation ranger from NZ and use "Silky saws" constantly. Sorry to hear you broke your blade... I wanted to just jump on here and say it happens ALL the time. I often find I can keep mine longer if I: - am mindful of constant downwards pressure into the cut AND - if cutting the full length of the blade.. To be not get comfortable the "rhythm" of the cut as it were... It's super common amongsts novice rangers to have broken saw tips. So, if happens to us all!!
Oh, I already left a comment on this video but I just thought of a video suggestion. When I vacationed in the Dominican Republic, there was fruit everywhere- like on your property- and chickens! Which was fantastic to see. But, there was also some kind of pumpkin, squash or vining relative that apparently pretty much everyone grew everywhere! I couldn't find a single fruit to help me identify it, but the leaves and blooms were in probably 1/3 of peoples yards and/or businesses. This was in September and since then I have been hoping there will be some exotic squash that will thrive here in Tampa since everything I grow eventually gets powdery mildew. If you guys have noticed something like this around your area, or just have some awesome varieties there that you know most people don't know about here in the states it would be a really cool video! I would take notes of every variety to try lol
Great job with the cinnamon David! I bet that smelled spectacular! I love the smell of cinnamon in a hot pie or bread. Yum! So glad neither of you got hurt by the wasps. 🌾Merry meet 🌿
I had a similar version marketed by Corona Clipper, also with a super-thin, razor-tooth Japanese blade that cuts on the draw stroke. On mine, the handle broke. Trendy expensive stuff tends to do that, while the ancient American-made tools from Grandpa's shed just keep soldiering along.
Can you imagine if someone thought Dave2000 was back, so they jumped ahead to the 2:30 mark and just saw DTG hurling rocks at the tree and assumed that was part of the harvesting process? Then this mis-knowledge gets passed down from generation to generation - just from an irrational fear of Dave2000...
Hello sir, what part of Florida are you in, i believe i saw a cacao fruit hanging when you were messing with the wasp nest. I'm just interested to know because i want a cacao tree and a cinnamon tree, thank you in advance
I can't believe you bombed the wasp nest!!! 😂😂😂 I could expect it from anyone, but you. Next time you can cut of that branch where they have nest and leave it in the ground. I'm not a pro, but I've done it few times. You just to be calm and move slowly, taking pauses.
This Video gave me some good laugh time! Its looks like your are out in the boondocks always having to watch your back. Be careful that the neighbors don`t go and steal your cinnamon harvest.
I think it's acasia cinnamon that contains higher amounts of coumarin a toxin compound as compared to Ceylon cinnamon which considered a true cinnamon. You can actually see the difference between the leaves or on its bark when it is already dried.
What time of year did you harvest your cinnamon? Did you only cut off one limb? How much did it actually make? How long did it take for the tree to get bug enough to harvest? Lots of questions, sorry. Thanks! Hugs and love from Texas!
This was really interesting. I knew cinammon was bark but I have no idea how it was harvested. Where are you these days? Lovely land you have there. Those poor wasps, glad they didn't get you worse than they did. Janice
Oh wow! Glad it was only temporary. I think it's so cool when people are able to move to other country's. I have often times considered that but wondered how I would make a living. Is it difficult to find employment there? Janice
LOL You Knuckle head! That's the little boy in ya coming out. Leave em be (the wasps) and take the branch. LOL 🤣😂🤣😂 You're cracking me up. People swear by their Silky Saws. I go through allot of saws. "Silky" is good. Quite expensive though. I'm too rough on my saws. Gotta be tough and cheap for the "Fatwood Queen" to purchase and appreciate. Thanks for the laugh and the wonderful video the two of you created. 👍👍 p.s. be sure to spike up your dog wacking stick. 🤣 🐕💨💨???
COOL! Wow, there is nothing you can tackle and accomplish, you knew how to deal with the angry wasps, and you got the piece of cinnamon log, you peel the inner bark and this is the cinnamon we all love, making yummy, gooey cinnamon rolls, cinnamon chewing gum, cinnamon tea, and of course the cinnamon toothpicks we'd enjoy chewing on in grade school! So sorry about your sawblade Sir David, thanks to you I now saw a glimpse of the tree, how big it gets and the shape of its leaves. Liked and wishing the Good Family an IRIE Week! :)And the Bahfeemus? Ah, probably hates the cinnamon scent! ;)
Did you have to take so much of the tree off? We had a tree and only used the leaves to spice things up. In fact the whole neighbourhood used the leaves off that tree.
@@davidthegood Hi David :) I just found this video and I loved it as usual. Outside of my husband, you are the only man that can keep me laughing my butt off just like he does. You really remind of him when he was younger. I wondered if there was any particular reason that you cut the whole branch off instead of just harvesting some of the bark off of the tree like I've seen other people do it like in Sri Lanka? Also, did you ever go back to get the small thin branches and tips left up there? I've read that some people peel use those as whole cinnamon sticks? Have a blessed day David.
That's cinnamomum cassia if I remember correctly. That is the commercial cinnamon. I have a tree in Mississippi. I keep it in a greenhouse because the winter will kill it. Eventually I'll be able to do this. Ceylon cinnamon is the really good one though.
With protection, most likely you could grow them. Keep them warm when young. I'm going to post more on cinnamon on my website tomorrow - www.thesurvivalgardener.com.

Tysm
I don't think anyone wants that saw seeing how it snapped clean off!! Doubt it's a good saw buddy. Lol
Btw, great video, great job!
I’m 31 me to it’s beautiful
Your sense of humor along with your unfortunate setbacks made this video all the more entertaining to watch! Thanks! 😊
Thank you.
@@davidthegood For sure! Can’t harvest cinnamon without wasps and tools breaking! You handled it well though! =]
"This'll be the dog beating stick"
**Peaceful guitar song soothingly starts**
What has my life become? I am watching tree bark being peeled, and actually enjoying it. Sigh.
Omg I know right. Here i am to 🤔
pretty sure people have been doing that since ancient times (just without youtube) and geting money off of it.
@Devendra Sahu much better
Best comment.
And I'm watching a man throwing rocks at a wasps' nest, and I'm actually enjoying it.
Oh dude! You throw rocks at wasps just like Napoleon Dynamite throws Grapefruits! :-D
I have skills.
David The Good LOL!!! You rule man...grace and peace to you all there in the field. :-)
Awww....lol
LMAO
Lol
I used to think cinnamon was expensive. After watching your video, I realize it is quite the bargain!
Heh - yes.
yeah.... its only 10,000 gold guilders per gross its been that high since King Louis XIII came to power and even now with king Heeren VII the price is still more than a good craftsman could make in say 10 fortnites.
I just wanted to see a cinnamon stick made 🤣 learned how not to take a tree down with wasps

Your video was cool and enlightening to try this trick next time! This educational fun video is nicely made though at times it seemed like you’re taking high risk hazards! Thank you. Loved it.
How did I go from watching how to bake cinnamon buns to watching cinnamon trees being harvested
I spill my drink when you start stoning the wasps 😂
After your gracious sawblade review I will state I will not be buying one
lol
I've always known that cinnamon was tree bark but never knew how it was harvest. Thank you for the education lesson. Never to old to learn new things.
I had to look this video up because I had no clue where it came from.
Pls, where do I get these cinnamon?
Idk why but the Hornet section was the most relatable aspect 😂😂
Thanks for keeping it in the vid 👍🏽
Thank you
Why is this funny like a sitcom
Wow! I had NO idea where cinnamon actually came from!! Amazing, thanks for sharing!
You bet.
I am at 3:56 and had to pause to laugh! I really loved that you showed the reality of growing and harvesting a cinnamon tree!
I seriously had no idea! I've learned so much in the last two year's. wowzer. Thank you. now I'll go pretend i knew cinnamon was bark the whole time lol.
blessings y'all
I love trees that give a food smell as you walk by.

I did not know so much work went into this cinnamon. Thank you, that's awesome 👌
Those saws are amazing! I use one too :) My good friend who trims trees in Hawaii recommended it to me.

Yes - you want to grow Seminole Pumpkin. I have a lot of info about it on my website. Excellent and handles the mildew.
Calabaza perhaps
That's absolutely fascinating. I confess I had no idea where cinnamon came from.
I know - of all things - the bark? I ground some this morning and it was amazing.
Great job with the cinnamon David! I bet that smelled spectacular! I love the smell of cinnamon in a hot pie or bread. Yum! So glad neither of you got hurt by the wasps.
🌾Merry meet 🌿
It was amazing.
David The Good I bet! Too bad I live in too cold an area for such plants. =D
and here I thought cinnamon grew in supermarkets
"This saw is fantastic"
Cinnamon Tree: "we'll see about that."
Wow, I had no idea how difficult it is to process my favorite spice! I'll definitely enjoy it even more in my next cup of coffee.
I love in hot chocolate, add slowly to taste... Delish
Where did you live back then? Such cool looking property. Looks like South America, possibly Costa Rica?
Thanks, you two, now I need a cinnamon tree in my life 🤣😂
I love how much of an ordeal this becomes. Awesome video!
Thank you, Cody.
Does it shrivle into the sticks as we know it or do you need to roll it? Thanks!
Came here to watch cinnamon be harvested ....didn't realize I'd be stumbling into this bit of gold lol
No Dave, it not a great saw :)
Saw fail.
i have the same saw, its pretty sharp and comfortable to use., but its snap but still a great saw
I had a similar version marketed by Corona Clipper, also with a super-thin, razor-tooth Japanese blade that cuts on the draw stroke. On mine, the handle broke. Trendy expensive stuff tends to do that, while the ancient American-made tools from Grandpa's shed just keep soldiering along.

Noooooooooo..............
Fyeqbz
Ahaha 🌴
Great advertising for that saw. i was about to go buy it. No longer in the description? Love it.
Where did u shoot this VDO, as in the country?
Very nice my first time to watch how Cinnamon tree looks like. Rip for your great Saw.
What a lovely video... I as my tree is fairly young - how small a branch can I use? I don’t want to cut big chunks off the tree as yet
Hello sir, what part of Florida are you in, i believe i saw a cacao fruit hanging when you were messing with the wasp nest.
I'm just interested to know because i want a cacao tree and a cinnamon tree, thank you in advance
This was filmed in Grenada
I can't believe you bombed the wasp nest!!! 😂😂😂 I could expect it from anyone, but you.
Next time you can cut of that branch where they have nest and leave it in the ground. I'm not a pro, but I've done it few times. You just to be calm and move slowly, taking pauses.
That was WAY cool, thank you for sharing... My very first time seeing the process
Thank you. Glad you stopped by.
I can't stop laughing!!!!!
David you are too much!
Thank you, Lina.
Great job. Funny video.
Thank you, Jason.
Thank you for showing me this. Now I can file cinnamon under too much work.
This is a fun video! Thank you for the entertainment.
Learned something new today. Thanks.
You bet - thank you.
Do you know if your tree is cassia or ceylon cinnamon?
Pretty sure it's ceylon but can't say for sure. The trees all look very similar.
This was far more entertaining than I was expecting! Thank you for posting!
I just love learning new things!! Thanks for the How to!!
This Video gave me some good laugh time! Its looks like your are out in the boondocks always having to watch your back. Be careful that the neighbors don`t go and steal your cinnamon harvest.
Thx! How's that shillelagh worked out?
Wow! Cinnamon comes from a long way. What a tiring 😫 process. I probably will appreciate the product more now
Wow how exciting to harvest ur own cinnamon!! U got cinnamon fo life!! 👍🏼🌞
Cinnamon-4-life sounds like a rap album.
David The Good 👍🏼👍🏼
That was so fascinating! I never knew where it came from!!
I think it's acasia cinnamon that contains higher amounts of coumarin a toxin compound as compared to Ceylon cinnamon which considered a true cinnamon. You can actually see the difference between the leaves or on its bark when it is already dried.
Many people say the machete is a great tool because its a “one stop chop” for all ✌🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻😂
How do they get the cinnamon sticks to curl?
They curl as they dry
cassia or Ceylon, or something else?? Was just curious
I think it's Ceylon, but they're close relatives.
was just curious...I find the taste of Ceylon milder & actually prefer it...thanks
Even the leaves have a wonderful hint of cinnamon taste to it
What time of year did you harvest your cinnamon? Did you only cut off one limb? How much did it actually make? How long did it take for the tree to get bug enough to harvest? Lots of questions, sorry. Thanks! Hugs and love from Texas!
How small a diameter branch can be harvested? I have a tree but it is small
Even an inch-thick branch will give you a little.
Nice property it has so many fruiting trees and thanks for the video now I must get a cinnamon tree
the cinnamon leaves when dried can be used also you can buy it in the store we use it to make porridge or tea
Oh do please include a link in the description to a saw that breaks when used for what it was intended. LOL
Will cinnamon grow wherever cacao grows?
This was really interesting. I knew cinammon was bark but I have no idea how it was harvested. Where are you these days? Lovely land you have there. Those poor wasps, glad they didn't get you worse than they did. Janice
We're in Central America. I was fortunate with the wasps - a neighbor got stung in the eye and lost his sight for a while.
Oh wow! Glad it was only temporary. I think it's so cool when people are able to move to other country's. I have often times considered that but wondered how I would make a living. Is it difficult to find employment there? Janice
I write for a living, so I don't need a "real" job, but looking for one as a foreigner would be tough.
I have a cinnamon tree. But the cinnamon layer sticks to the wood in the centre that I got it only in small shreds. Not as a layer. What to do?
Thanks for the information and method of extracting cinnamon..👍
LOL You Knuckle head! That's the little boy in ya coming out. Leave em be (the wasps) and take the branch. LOL 🤣😂🤣😂 You're cracking me up. People swear by their Silky Saws.

Do you sell seeds from cinnamon tree? Can the tree take light frosts?
I don't sell seeds. Larger trees can take light frosts.
I have to get a few of those trees!!!
Where can I get one of those trees?
Woodlanders nursery sold me one once.
David The Good Thank you! Added to my growing list.
Where can you usually find cinnimin trees?
could you have used big clippers to cut off that branch and drag the rest away?
What about vanilla do you have any vanilla vines growing in your plantation?
You think like I do!
They're coming - a nursery down the street from me should have some ready in February. Already on order.
COOL! Wow, there is nothing you can tackle and accomplish, you knew how to deal with the angry wasps, and you got the piece of cinnamon log, you peel the inner bark and this is the cinnamon we all love, making yummy, gooey cinnamon rolls, cinnamon chewing gum, cinnamon tea, and of course the cinnamon toothpicks we'd enjoy chewing on in grade school!

Get yourself a bahco Laplander. Best folding saw I’ve ever used.
Thank you. I'll check it out.
Sandvik also make excellent saws.
Where can I buy a log from the cinnamon tree? I need one about 70 inchs long and 6-7 inch diameter.
I need an email
I can literally hear the buzzing!!!
I'm wondering how you ground it?
Did you have to take so much of the tree off? We had a tree and only used the leaves to spice things up. In fact the whole neighbourhood used the leaves off that tree.
Yes, if you want the bark for cinnamon, you need to cut good-sized branches. They grow back.
Minor pruning can keep a tree healthier than it would be if left to grow rank.
So David, do you think that they destroy entire tree to continually get more cinnamon?
Oh ok so it's the soft bark, cool beans! I have learned my new thing for today
Lifetime warranty on saw?
Love your videos and books!(ok, I only read one book so far but going to get the others.) Have you found any use for the berries from the cinnamon?
No, but I haven't done any research. The fresh bark smells amazing and there's lots of it.

David isn't just easier to order it off Amazon, I mean they deliver it right to your front door? :-)
Amazon... I miss Amazon...
That's cinnamomum cassia if I remember correctly. That is the commercial cinnamon. I have a tree in Mississippi. I keep it in a greenhouse because the winter will kill it. Eventually I'll be able to do this. Ceylon cinnamon is the really good one though.
Very interesting. Could these trees grow in north Florida or are they mountainous? Love the music too. Happy Harvest

That whole first half of the video was an amazing train wreck lmao. It was great.
Isn't there a way to debark the tree without chopping it down?
You know something similar to harvesting cork.
Can’t be harvested without cutting the branches off?
Something like cork is harvested
