You're going to WIN. You're learning the land. Next, putting the land into Zones is ( key). The zones will dictate time spent on them. The overwhelming feeling will turn into order. Example: Monday, front porch area. Tuesday front yard cut, barn and wood pile organized. In time, some areas will need less attention, etc. Just give areas their own day, so if you miss a day, you can keep going with the schedule and pickup next week where you skipped. You got this!
Your plan sounds real good. I don’t have a big yard to maintain, but I think I will adopt this idea between front flower garden and backyard veggies garden. 😘
We try to stick to that but have not been very intentional about it. It’s definitely the way to go but we just haven’t disciplined ourselves enough to stick to it! 🤦🏾♂️ 🤦🏽♀️
Exactly. They obviously love their land and have vision. I found the question to be odd. They answered correctly. Challenges are expected and weeding sucks for all sizes of gardens. I like their vision and their choice to share that as a standard for others to aspire to. Wishing you success!
One great Christian farmers to watch: Living Traditions Homestead. This couple explain planting, soil, animal care and equipment. They also let you know about the errors they have made so you can do better yourself. Another TH-cam channel is Garden Answer and Lumnah Acres and Sow the Land( he is learning too but makes some wise choices as he grows ). There is also Joe Salatin who has been educating new farmers and old. I hope this helps you gain more knowledge and wisdom for your God given homestead! I’m praying for your success!
Feeling overwhelmed with gardening is normal. Think about the satisfaction of driving onto your property realizing your blessing. Buy one large perennial fern and split it into four plants. Buy several large hostas. Plant both in shady areas. If planted under trees, each will help with the weeds. Weeding and mowing are my nemesis'. Just remember to set aside each day to enjoy the work you have accomplished. You both know you got this and God got you!
I totally feel what you guys are saying. My husband and i have 24.5 acres in Arkansas that's a combination of woods and pasture. The work never ends, but we also believe that God called ua to grow and raise our own food. The food system ia contaminated and we need to get back to what God created. I heard another homestead TH-camr say that he is starting to believe that homesteading is like being a glorified landscaper. 🤣
Don't get weary in WELL DOING..for you shall reap if you FAINT NOT.....There is so much more in store for you all. LOVING watching your journey as you fulfill your purpose.
I hope you two are still prioritizing getting to date eachother. Getting dressed up and going out to eat, a movie night, something. Being married already can have its challenges, and taking care of this property while being married I could only imagine the journey building that momentum❤. You both seem fine and doing well but I just wanted to say that ❤. It’s a season you’re in right now but just remember, make time for your relationship outside of all this when you can 😊
I love to watch you two. It makes me feel so good to see young people purchase a home with land to call their own with their own money and make good on it. On top of all that you put GOD first. That is the most important thing, both of you give word to who, what, when, where, why and how you do what God called you to do. I thank God for you. Blessings!!!
🎯👏🏾👏🏾 Yes! If it was his divine plan for you to buy a home or obtain any property , there should never be a question if it was or wasn’t a good decision. Anything worthwhile that he gives to you is worth doing the hard work to maintain and thank him for your blessings DAILY! If we stand of faith & trust in God & his bountiful grace ALL things are possible, we just have to BELIEVE !The enemy likes to get in your head periodically to doubt the Lord! Job had strong faith in the Lord regardless of his circumstances, and God blessed him even more after he endured hardship and stood his ground on being faithful! Without faith it’s impossible to please God! Keep up the good work with building your beautiful home , family & property and in the future you will enjoy the fruits of your labor! God bless you and anyone who gets discouraged from time to time. We all need to encourage each other and pray for one another daily. 😊🙏🏾❤️
I can’t stand biblically illiterate people that say stuff like GOD won’t give you more than you can handle. Clearly you all haven’t read Job or the letters of Paul clearly he places us in overwhelming situations we can’t handle that’s part of the sanctification process. Life is filled with hardship what fairytale world do you people live in?!
I love love love planting Lavender and Russian Sage together. They repel mosquitoes and ticks (we live on 120 acres so that’s a great thing) plus my chickens and ducks don’t eat them up like they do every other freaking flower I buy!! But I usually plant some white petunia or other white annual flowers to fill the beds up around them and by mid-June the beds are full of white and purple buds. The Russian sage bushes get fuller year after year just like lavender!
Having the right tools would make your land care easier. Two items I see you need are a side by side with trailer to go back and forth to the garden and attachments for the tractor, like a mower. Not cheap items but well worth the investments.
New to your channel. The good thing about your 21 acres, is you have nothing but time on your size. Dont rush anything.everything will come together as time gos on. The lord is watching you and hes on your side.
I understand what you mean because I commute 2 hrs every other weekend to the country to mow acres of my parents' home, my acre and now the churches grass and it is a lot but at the same time comforting because it's nice solitude. I'm nearing age 58 and it can be a lot to do alone. I just pray that God sends me a help mate who can appreciate the country life. You guys hang in there!! Blessings from Tennessee.
Y'all are doing an amazing job! We need y'all in the season you are in. He's preparing you both to feed thousands ❤ Every member of the body is greatly needed.
Hey folks. A word of warning about those plants with the purple flowers (at the 6:27 mark). They spread like crazy. They'll take over a flower bed and more. My wife planted some years ago and they first they spread to the side of the house, my neighbor's yard, and eventually down the street and and to yards around the corner from the house. They've spread all over the neighborhood. They are very hard to eliminate once established because they drop seeds. Planting them in pots won't stop them from spreading. So, unless you absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE them I'd avoid them. Anyway, it's always nice to follow your adventures & see you spread the word!
Gerald and Symone, I love you two. I love your togetherness. You do things together, talk and discuss things together, joke and have fun!! If everybody has a heart and attitude like you all. This world would be better. I’ll be texting you about once a month just to stay in contact with you all. Love you!! Have a bless day!!
Just an idea. You all could find a way to turn the acreage that you don't maintain into hay bales, and some cattle farmers buy hay. This could in turn fund your landscape budget.
With maintaining 5 acres, a 60” zero turn mower would make the job easier and faster. Having the right tools is essential to making maintenance of a large property easier.
Simone your house and property is so nice. When you get tired step back and take a breath or a day. Hang in there keep going. All days are not goi g to be good. You got it.
You guys can do it!!🥰😁🙏🏾👍🏾💪🏾remember routine, and it will get better and easier…😁👍🏾keep up the great work!! Oh and It’s ok to take a break sometimes, and call a yard guy!!😁
He is working on things you are not even focused on so later on when someone compliments you 😂you don't get puffed up. He did well with you two. Great job guys. God is amazing😅
Have you guys thought of investing in a mower attachment for your tractor it make landscaping a lot simpler. God bless and keep up the vision he is working you both towards
You are both of the same mind and same spirit. Having each other is wonderful andSpecial. God will be and is in everything you do as long as you acknowledge him and let him have his way. May the Lord continue to bless 🙏 you.
It is such a a blessing to have land. I love looking at God's creation changes of seasons. I love looking at the trees...the pathway to your home...It reminds me of the summers on my grandparents farm...Love it beautiful❤❤🎉🎉🎉
You two are so inspiring. I needed this today. Thank you! Ben Hartman, Lean Farmer in Goshen I mentioned, is making all his own organic compost (and using only compost for fertility) from fall leaves. He gets leaves from the city of Goshen, but would drool over your access to leaves. It's cut a huge expense from his farm budget of buying compost for his market garden. Vinegar kills soil microbes. It's great for weeds in concrete cracks, but not good for your flower beds. On flower beds, we use cardboard with 2" mulch on top added every other year (free from Chip Drop, but make sure there's no poison ivy in the mulch) - get zero weeds in my beds, only grass pressure on the edges and a flat spade on the edges every spring takes care of that. Perennials that bloom throughout the season work nicely for 3 season color, and you can often split them and get more for free (like yarrow, asters, daisies, lupine, and hostas). Miniature azaleas, miniature lilac, and hydrangeas behind them.
I'm sure it seems like much, but your children and grandchildren will be grateful. It's securing for them an inheritance. The Bible says a good man is able to leave his children's children am inheritance. It's my aim to be where you are by God's grace..
Happy Monday 😊 You may like Marigolds The view is beautiful! I enjoyed the video as always! Thank you both for being obedient and sharing another powerful message from the Lord.
Hostas are perfect perennials that are basically maintenance free and keep getting larger every year and some spread . You can buy a few and never ever have to buy another. You can split them and plant the babies wherever you want. They come in different colors and some are shade lovers and others love sun . Happy gardening ❤️🙏🏽
Oh yeah beautiful Irises too . When they grow you can split them and plant the babies . They don’t need to be way underground either so no deep holes to dig .
Look into growing the echinacea flower - beautiful pink/purple colour, easy to grow, perennial and has a multitude of medicinal properties! It's a must for any homestead!
My garden harvest does so well because of Marigolds, Lantana, Hollyhocks, Butterly Bush, Alyssum, Borage, Calendula, Hyssop, Milkweed, Beeb Balm, Sunflowers, Yarrow, Aster, Zinnia. Best wishes to you both!! 🫶🏼
You guys are truly blessed. I love the views of your lake from inside your house. I have approximately 2 acres of land, so I know it is not easy to maintain the large estate you guys have. You guys are young.... pace yourselves!
From the first video I saw of you two, she so reminds me of a cross between Essence Atkins and Lisa “Left Eye “ Lopez. She even sounds and have mannerisms a lot like Essence Atkins. I’m so enjoying y’all’s video and admire how well y’all work together. Thank you for NOT buying that Lucifer plant. I would’ve had to unsubscribe. To our Heavenly Father be the honor, glory and the praise in Jesus’ name. Amen 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾!!!
As I started watching I definitely thought Essence Atkins. Before I saw this comment. ❤ That's a beautiful compliment , because her spiritual presence is everything 😇
You guys can do this ,do a section at a time I mean clean in sections don't get overwhelmed take your time as a team time yourselves like maybe 1hr per section get Begonias flowers so pretty and can take some sun and they come back over again .Love it❤
You can use the landscape fabric used by 'Homesteaders' to block the Sun under your flowerbeds and for a decent time that will solve your _weed_ problem or you can use CARDBOARD box materials, lay them out and use like 'Weed Fabric' and temporarily that will halt your problem as well. Vinegar works to kill the weeds that pop up but you need to get it DEEPER into the soil to take care of the roots.
Easy maintenance: any perrenials flowering - favorite is canas. They can be tall, but showstopper on my property. Begonias are my favorite annual and last Spring to Frost
I thank God that I’m feeling better after my knee replacement last month by the grace of Gods & 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 I made it through… I’m very thankful for your content it really brightened up my day during this rough time🙌🏾 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 I love the 💜 Heart perennial my husband bought us 8 yrs ago that I let die last winter but you guys have inspired me to regrow it along with The 🫑, celery, 🍇 vine , 🧅 & 🍉 we just started. God will never leave you or forsake you keep up the good work 🙌🏾🙏🏾
Garden Queen she is a TH-camr from St. Louis Missouri. She just shared a amazing way and how she deals with weed pressure in her Garden! She’s so much fun but does a great job! I used it this weekend and it worked! I got rid of weeds in no time
Looking at you 21 acres Adam had a lot to do in the garden of eden Lot of work but it looks so beautiful So I'm excited to see where you guys are headed and what God is about to do and show us as your viewer's
My favorite flower is Calla Lily, Picasso Calla Lily to be exact. I owned learned how u can take the bulb out at the end of the summer n store it to replant next year if you live in a cold zone. There's several videos on TH-cam, of course, on how to do it. Zinnia, Cosmo, Aster and Marigold are some of my other favorite flowers. Plus Zinnias, Cosmos and Marigolds are edible so I will dry them n make tea. " A hug fr9m God" I love that you guys are so blessed. I too want property like this (more acreage cuz I want horses) and am working towards that. God bless you both. 😊
I believe it’s a lot of work to maintain the beautiful land but I know that God has chosen you too to continue growing through this journey and eventually you will start learning different ways to make the process easier to manage & maintain. I would love to come visit your beautiful promise land one day. Thanks🙏🏾
Love watching you guys living out your purpose. Find you both so refreshing and agree with you that everything belongs to God, sometimes we lose sight of that. When I bought my home weeds became my nemesis. I found this guy on TH-cam called silver cymbal. I started following his advice and there has been drastic improvements to my yard. Hopefully you guys can get some tips on handling the weeds.
Sheep or goats will sort out the weeds/growth. Also for your vegetable patch, you'll need to make sure you have flowers close by for pollination. You could sow the perimeter with wild flower seed mix, native to the area and for areas you don't want to cut, you could wild them too. So much land, so many options. Pigs for the wet/boggy areas, sheep/goats to keep large grass areas in check😊
I think it's beautiful that the house will always give you a reason to be outdoors even when you're older. It like solidfied a lifelong healthy lifestyle.
I plant a small 6 pack of wave petunias (purple) every year. They last and spread over flowing the pots where I plant them. Also zinnia, marigold, nasturtium, and some wild flowers for pollinators and/or deer resistant mix around my garden. I've got a few lavender perennials about a well.
I'm from Marion, IN & two of my favorite perennials are Larkspur's and bachelor buttons. Both have beautiful colors all summer and they re-seed themselves.
May God keep abundantly blessing you two! I thank you so much for being totally honest and sincere about your experiences. You are uplifting so many and giving us hope. Authentic people love being given the reality of "real" situations. May God return to you one hundred fold on all of your efforts. May your rest rest be sweet and complete. May your love and bond grow stronger each day!
I love Begonias. I've been planting them just about every Spring for 15 yrs. They bloom throughout the Summer thru early Winter. I'm in Houston, so it gets pretty hot. You must water daily if in direct sunlight. I prefer the ones with light green leaves.
Thanks for sharing your day with us the leaves are valuable. I believe you will be great Stewards on your land I work my garden all by myself because I have no one to help but Calkim, Yellow Door Urban Homestead, Roots and Refuge, Homestead Heart and The Rusted Gardener are just a few of the channels have help me and putting GOD first
Symone- "this place just feels like a hug from God"....
My husband and I - "I want a "hug,(house with land and a lake) " lol lol

The most wholesome vids I can watch w/o any cursing, fully clothed, and drama free, but teachable interesting content! Love it.
This is why they had 10 kids back in the day. 😂 Y’all got this. 🙏❤️
You not lyin!!
The blessing of the Lord maketh rich and He added no sorrow to it!! If He called you to it He equipped you for it! ❤
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Amen and Amen!
You guys are the epitome of “Equally Yolked!” I just love it! 💜🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🤗
Facts!
Feeling overwhelmed with gardening is normal. Think about the satisfaction of driving onto your property realizing your blessing.
Buy one large perennial fern and split it into four plants. Buy several large hostas. Plant both in shady areas. If planted under trees, each will help with the weeds.
Weeding and mowing are my nemesis'.
Just remember to set aside each day to enjoy the work you have accomplished.
You both know you got this and God got you!
🙌🏿
I totally feel what you guys are saying. My husband and i have 24.5 acres in Arkansas that's a combination of woods and pasture. The work never ends, but we also believe that God called ua to grow and raise our own food. The food system ia contaminated and we need to get back to what God created. I heard another homestead TH-camr say that he is starting to believe that homesteading is like being a glorified landscaper. 🤣
Roses, they come back every year and they smell beautiful when you open the door or windows first thing in the morning
Don't get weary in WELL DOING..for you shall reap if you FAINT NOT.....There is so much more in store for you all. LOVING watching your journey as you fulfill your purpose.
I hope you two are still prioritizing getting to date eachother.
Getting dressed up and going out to eat, a movie night, something. Being married already can have its challenges, and taking care of this property while being married I could only imagine the journey building that momentum❤.

You are doing great . Don't feel overwhelmed. I love watching you.
God would have not given to you something if he felt you aren't ready to handle it.
Amen.

Life is filled with hardship what fairytale world do you people live in?!
@gsii1573 Job circumstance didn't kill him or destroy his belief in God. It made his faith strong. The things that God give s does not bring sorrow
Peonies are good perineals, and they come in beautiful colors too. Mainly whites and pinks but gorgeous every year
I love that young couples are doing this. Every time you complete something the reward comes immediately. Keep doing whatcha doin
I love love love planting Lavender and Russian Sage together. They repel mosquitoes and ticks (we live on 120 acres so that’s a great thing) plus my chickens and ducks don’t eat them up like they do every other freaking flower I buy!! But I usually plant some white petunia or other white annual flowers to fill the beds up around them and by mid-June the beds are full of white and purple buds. The Russian sage bushes get fuller year after year just like lavender!
Thank you so much for this comment…. I COMPLETELY forgot to plant sage this year! We’re going to have to go grab some tomorrow to get out in now
I love how y’all work so well together while learning the lay of your land and your land is absolutely beautiful. Your gratitude is beautiful too🙏🏿❤️
Some people are such a good match. God bless yall😊
You’re Happy,, Satisfied ,, Grateful and delighted,,, Through it all 💟✝️
Having the right tools would make your land care easier. Two items I see you need are a side by side with trailer to go back and forth to the garden and attachments for the tractor, like a mower. Not cheap items but well worth the investments.
You two are such a Blessing 🤍🕊
I love that aerial view of y'all's amazing property.
God gave y'all this vision and he's made provision .Stay Blessed ❤😊

@@j49bd189 Thank you.
You could definitely have a MASSIVE compost pile with all that cleanup! I’d love that, so would your garden
Oh we definitely do!
I love all colors of roses. You plant and you can enjoy forever. I pretty much like perennials. Plant once and done.
I own 30 acres trust me everything you’re saying is so true. I bought some cows and Goats
Pay a landscaper. It's the best money you'll ever spend. The time it will save you is priceless !
Y'all are doing an amazing job! We need y'all in the season you are in. He's preparing you both to feed thousands ❤ Every member of the body is greatly needed.

You two have a hidden jewel, and you are so young yall have a lifetime to learn and that's with anything in life
I love dahlias. They have such huge blooms and so many brilliant colors.
Pearls (the plant with attached “mables”) are nice 👍🏾
I really enjoy your property and how you manage it. The Love 💕 and Respect is Beautiful 🩷🙏🏾
Just an idea. You all could find a way to turn the acreage that you don't maintain into hay bales, and some cattle farmers buy hay. This could in turn fund your landscape budget.

Garden Queens shares so much on Hydrangeas not sure if you watch other TH-camrs! She is hands down my favorite TH-camr right now! I just subscribed
“A hub for God.” So good! That’s exactly what it is.
I'm sure it seems like much, but your children and grandchildren will be grateful. It's securing for them an inheritance. The Bible says a good man is able to leave his children's children am inheritance. It's my aim to be where you are by God's grace..
Beautifully said! 🙏🏾
In these end times, it is a good thing to make sure you secure your own food supply.
Happy Monday 😊
You may like Marigolds
The view is beautiful! I enjoyed the video as always! Thank you both for being obedient and sharing another powerful message from the Lord.
Yes you are right! Marigolds come in many sizes and constantly bloom.
Hostas are perfect perennials that are basically maintenance free and keep getting larger every year and some spread . You can buy a few and never ever have to buy another. You can split them and plant the babies wherever you want. They come in different colors and some are shade lovers and others love sun . Happy gardening ❤️🙏🏽
Love hostas! Definitely need some of them
Back in action❤
Oh yeah beautiful Irises too . When they grow you can split them and plant the babies . They don’t need to be way underground either so no deep holes to dig .
Look into growing the echinacea flower - beautiful pink/purple colour, easy to grow, perennial and has a multitude of medicinal properties! It's a must for any homestead!
A long lasting favorite that is perennial hardy and fragrant is Dianthus..also Dahlia.. Daylily ..Coreopsis and Phlox.. blessings 🕊️❤️

You kids are very smart. You can never go wrong with property! Love what you do and it will be fun and not work ❤❤😂
Easy maintenance: any perrenials flowering - favorite is canas. They can be tall, but showstopper on my property. Begonias are my favorite annual and last Spring to Frost
I thank God that I’m feeling better after my knee replacement last month by the grace of Gods & 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 I made it through…
I’m very thankful for your content it really brightened up my day during this rough time🙌🏾 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I love the 💜 Heart perennial my husband bought us 8 yrs ago that I let die last winter but you guys have inspired me to regrow it along with
The 🫑, celery, 🍇 vine , 🧅 & 🍉 we just started. God will never leave you or forsake you keep up the good work 🙌🏾🙏🏾
Garden Queen she is a TH-camr from St. Louis Missouri. She just shared a amazing way and how she deals with weed pressure in her Garden! She’s so much fun but does a great job! I used it this weekend and it worked! I got rid of weeds in no time
We’ll have to check it out!
Looking at you 21 acres Adam had a lot to do in the garden of eden
Lot of work but it looks so beautiful So I'm excited to see where you guys are headed and what God is about to do and show us as your viewer's
My favorite flower is Calla Lily, Picasso Calla Lily to be exact. I owned learned how u can take the bulb out at the end of the summer n store it to replant next year if you live in a cold zone. There's several videos on TH-cam, of course, on how to do it. Zinnia, Cosmo, Aster and Marigold are some of my other favorite flowers. Plus Zinnias, Cosmos and Marigolds are edible so I will dry them n make tea. " A hug fr9m God" I love that you guys are so blessed. I too want property like this (more acreage cuz I want horses) and am working towards that. God bless you both. 😊
I believe it’s a lot of work to maintain the beautiful land but I know that God has chosen you too to continue growing through this journey and eventually you will start learning different ways to make the process easier to manage & maintain. I would love to come visit your beautiful promise land one day.
Thanks🙏🏾
4:01 that view! So beautiful
God is your strength! Be patient.❤
Absolutely Awesome 👏🏾
Love watching you guys living out your purpose. Find you both so refreshing and agree with you that everything belongs to God, sometimes we lose sight of that. When I bought my home weeds became my nemesis. I found this guy on TH-cam called silver cymbal. I started following his advice and there has been drastic improvements to my yard. Hopefully you guys can get some tips on handling the weeds.
Wow!! That soil looks amazing! 😮
Sheep or goats will sort out the weeds/growth. Also for your vegetable patch, you'll need to make sure you have flowers close by for pollination. You could sow the perimeter with wild flower seed mix, native to the area and for areas you don't want to cut, you could wild them too. So much land, so many options. Pigs for the wet/boggy areas, sheep/goats to keep large grass areas in check😊
My favorite flower is baby breath
I think it's beautiful that the house will always give you a reason to be outdoors even when you're older. It like solidfied a lifelong healthy lifestyle.
Cone flowers are my favorite, but like lilac bushes, and peonies.
Hello. I like begonias, hydrangeas, hybiscus. For spring, peonies are nice, and hostas grow well.
I plant a small 6 pack of wave petunias (purple) every year. They last and spread over flowing the pots where I plant them. Also zinnia, marigold, nasturtium, and some wild flowers for pollinators and/or deer resistant mix around my garden. I've got a few lavender perennials about a well.
I love Lillies the tropical colors, those Begonias were really pretty
Hydrangeas and peace lillies ❤
I'm from Marion, IN & two of my favorite perennials are Larkspur's and bachelor buttons. Both have beautiful colors all summer and they re-seed themselves.
Y'all got this little by little
Give your selves grace
The help will come together divine community of helper's
We will come

May God keep abundantly blessing you two! I thank you so much for being totally honest and sincere about your experiences. You are uplifting so many and giving us hope. Authentic people love being given the reality of "real" situations. May God return to you one hundred fold on all of your efforts. May your rest rest be sweet and complete. May your love and bond grow stronger each day!
I love Begonias. I've been planting them just about every Spring for 15 yrs. They bloom throughout the Summer thru early Winter. I'm in Houston, so it gets pretty hot. You must water daily if in direct sunlight. I prefer the ones with light green leaves.
Backpack flame torch is the best for driveway and walkway weeds! So fun and lasts much longer than any weed killer.
Gerald and Simon keep the faith and trust the process! I have no doubt that you Love the Lord
Thanks for sharing your day with us the leaves are valuable. I believe you will be great Stewards on your land
I work my garden all by myself because I have no one to help but Calkim, Yellow Door Urban Homestead, Roots and Refuge, Homestead Heart and The Rusted Gardener are just a few of the channels have help me and putting GOD first
