@@Amishland_Chateau I wanted to make the comment that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. But I thought it was too obvious. He is the spitting image of his dad in personality and humor.
Lovely to “meet” William. Apple picking in the US is an annual day of fun for many families. 🍎 Everyone: Please remember to tap the Like/ThumbsUp button (located above, near the video description) to maximize Mapperton’s TH-cam algorithm! 🍎 🍏
Pleased to meet you William..What a well mannered and handsome young man. Looks a lot like Julie but with dads personality!..the apple part was funny. Well done super parents for raising such lovely children while running such a busy Place.
They do 'mesh' well, conversationally, as well as in humor. I fully expected that segment to fade out on a receding drone shot of them each taking one bite of every apple they picked! 😂
I'm not nitpicking, just trying to offer some friendly advice on apple picking. Don't pull apples off the branches, just do a quick twist. It is less damaging to the tree and less extra apples fall off at the same time. If the apple is ready to pick, it comes off real easy with the quick twist approach. If you wear a big pocketed apron or use a piece of rope (or long scarf) with a canvas tote bag tied to both ends and slung around your neck like an open scarf, you can pick apples two handed, twist-twist, for quick work without needing to buy or store any special gear. The apple picking looked fun! Reminds me of picking and canning apples when I was younger. Hard work, but rewarding and fun with family and friends.
Can‘t resist 😂 but looking at the two lads on a box munching on the same apple, the „apple doesn’t fall far from the tree“ sprang to mind. And then Dad drops one on his son‘s head! Brilliant! 🍎
William got the best of both of you. I noticed in looking at the black and white photos of Alberta that Luke William and Nester all hold her likeness. But I can definitely see Julie in William. What a beautiful family with those mops of blonde hair and quirky sense of humor. I love the sandwiches !
Yes we Americans love Chutney! I’ve only recently discovered your TH-cam channel. Julie I’m just like you! I get so excited over history even the simplest things make me happy. So wonderful to see you all working hard to keep the family home going.
What a wonderful treat when this came live…This is great fun, loads of apples on the trees, beautiful! Love fresh apple cider, hope you can get some pressed. William, it was wonderful to see you, even for just a few minutes. Very brave of you! Handsome son, Julie and Luke!!
Great to see young William, top tip Apple's make cider young man😉. As times goes by you'll realise your daft old dad is your best pal, I bet in decades on you'll show this to your children/grandchildren. Spend as much time with your parents/grandparents as you can, even if you think it's boring. The memories, knowledge they have is invaluable. Your Grandparents are showing you the way, how much you have/ how little we have, it is always good to share with those who have less.
I just made caramel apples with my granddaughter. We live in southern US and we love going apple picking up in the mountains every year. Such a delight getting out of the car when that apple smell hits you at the orchard- smells like Fall🍎
This episode is filled with father-child legacies. William Gee presents with confidence as a stone expert and his children have taken the love for stone working and have become absolute artists.
My grandparents had fruit trees that we had to go down & pick each fall. They had about a football sized plot of various fruit trees. We would pick while grandma & my aunts worked in the kitchen putting the fruit up. We would can some, slice & freeze some and the ones not quite ripe would be wrapped and put in the sunroom to finish.
This was such a fun TH-cam! I really enjoyed meeting your son, William. It was a joy seeing him picking apples with his father, and experiencing their shared humor! I also enjoy how Luke inserts bits about how he has embraced social media in his endeavors to repair and restore Mapperton. Julie impresses me as being so serious and intent on the wonderful work she is doing at Mapperton. Together they make a unique couple who appeal to both British and American patrons who support their endeavors to restore Mapperton.
Fun time apple picking! William is a very nice well mannered young man! What an interesting gent your stone Mason is! He must be very proud of his son carrying on his trade! Good to have the drone to help you see the hard places to access. The views of the estate are beautiful!! Unbelievable what the pigs do to the ground! Good thing you are happy about it!!! Love from Pennsylvania, USA 💕🌷🐻
BEST Mapperton episode ever. Interesting and entertaining. No interrupting and hurrying . Oh, wait, forget that. 25 thousand words written ( and spoken…)
İt is very great to see William Pretty pretty wonderful episode thank you . I will definitely try chutney recipe , not sure will it taste as good as Beryl's but hope it's going to be close enough😊😀
It was really fun getting to meet William. He definitely has his Luke’s personality and humor. 😂 Julie….the undertaking of archiving all the letters and documents is such a huge task. It must be overwhelming at times, but I’m sure you are taking it day by day. Once it is all done, think of the accomplishment you will have made. Great job! 👍🏻😉🥰🤗🙏
Something that would make this task much easier. Spread old sheets or plastic tarps underneath the apple trees. You can set the ladder close enough to the tree branches. Shake the tree, the ripe apples will fall off and the sheets/tarps will make the ripe apples easier to pick up.
Watching you two piok apples reminded me I have nice cold apples in the fridge to eat...thanks. I am thankful for TH-cam so I can pause and go get a healthy snack
What is that they say about the apple not falling far from the tree? … What a chip off the block. William is the spitting image of his dad. Of course the other son also looks like his dad. I don’t know if I’ve seen your other two kids but, yes, I agree, that from what I’ve seen of these young men it certainly reflects favorably upon their upbringing. Mom and dad are obviously raising nice young men who they can certainly be proud of. Watching from PA, USA.
Hello from Virginia! Our family always makes Chutney, and that's what we call it. We use my Grandmother's recipe and it seems identical to the one Beryl was using, except... crystalized ginger! What a great idea. I'm adding it next time! We love chutney with ham and smoked pork chops.🙂 William seems like a lovely young man! Nice to see him in the video. Thanks for letting me live in England vicariously through your videos!
As the Viscountess (Julie) would say, BEE-U-TEE-FUL! Im a new fan from the U.S., and I truly enjoy your videos. This is WONDERFUL on so many levels. The new "Prince William". Congratulations on another GREAT video.
Julie, what you are doing for the family is priceless! Organizing the archives of the family and providing a system to continue is quite the accomplishment! It’s a gift that future generations will be able to enjoy. ❤ Also, it was wonderful to see your son on the channel! William and Luke were quite funny, and it was wonderful to see the father and son interaction. Thank you for sharing your family and home with us!
Brilliant introduction to meeting William. The Apple picking brought back memories with my dad when I was younger and those memories are some to cherish. Well done!
William is a nice young man, and he looks a lot like his mom, with her energy. Nice to see the next generation, his humor is a bit like his dad, so a nice blend of both parent's in William. Thanks for appearing William, be proud of what your parent's are trying to achieve. G-d bless.
Howdy William! Happy Trails. It’s deeply inspiring and gratifying to see the next generation pitch in and take things seriously. Bravo. Do you give the ground apples that are a bit spoiled to the pigs you raise?
I was watiching another YT channel where the farmer (in Vermont USA) had mentioned that ground apples that were donated to him to feed his pigs had fermented, which made his pigs a little tipsy ... lol!
@@canukmrsben I watched a video many years ago called Animals are the Funniest People. Animals from miles around would visit a certain area when the Marula fruit was 'overripened'. There were elephants, apes, rodents, you name it. Not sure how the words gets out but it was truly fun to watch.
This is so adorable! ❤ Your relationship, son and father, apple picking. He has your humor dad. 😉 Welcome in front of the camera William! Adventure awaits! 👏
Thank you. I didn't think that I would enjoy watching apple picking but the photographer showed beautiful angles on the grove. That was a beautiful section of your video.
What a delite to see William and Luke. What a wonderful sense of humor they both have! I can see where William gets his sense of humor. I enjoyed their back and forth exchanges. Nice to meet you William! Your parents should be very proud for the wonderful man you have grown into! A very handsome young man!
Such a beautiful countryside. I hope the animals are there to be cared for and not to be sold for meat. Looks like there is enough space there to design and build a beautiful country village. William is a lucky boy to have such a lovely place to live.
Handsome and well-mannered young man you should be proud
William will be the next Viscount when Luke becomes the Earl of Sandwich.
@@chatterjeelinda4 I would like a hot pastrami sandwich, please
Willam seems to have his father’s dry sense of humor 😊
Yes, quite. Love it!😂
Most British do!
And his looks! I think we can safely say we now know what Luke looked like as a young adult. :)
@@Amishland_Chateau I wanted to make the comment that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. But I thought it was too obvious. He is the spitting image of his dad in personality and humor.
exactly🙂
Father and son with the same humor. 😊
If you lay a tarp underneath where you're picking then you can just gather the tarp and put all the apples that fall in the bin.
I do that with mulberries every year.
I do the same with my olive trees when I don’t have time to catch them in the netting and they fall through there’s a tarp they fall on. great idea
You clearly have picked apples before 👍👏❤
I came to say the same thing hehehe
I hope "the help" have more sense than these two do. They don't seem to know what they're doing!

Do I detect a bit of Luke's sense of humor? I see the apple didn't fall far from the ole' tree. Thanks for the wonderful father-son excursion video.
Lol! I see what you did there, love puns.
😂😂😂 A pun well done! Loved the exchange between William and Luke! Welcome, William!
Pleased to meet you William..What a well mannered and handsome young man. Looks a lot like Julie but with dads personality!..the apple part was funny. Well done super parents for raising such lovely children while running such a busy Place.
Personality like his Dad, but boy, does he look like his mom!
Handsome young man
Loved seeing Will and his Dad……so funny together….👍👍👍😂

You sound like a pro!
This is the proper way🍎🍏🍎🍏always wash your fruit before you eat them, the fruit skin can be covered with the larva that cause intestinal worms.🪱
I mean all good advice, but they seemed more interested in eating the apples, lol😅
This one made me smile...picking apples, eating apples, and great banter between father and son.
Can‘t resist 😂 but looking at the two lads on a box munching on the same apple, the „apple doesn’t fall far from the tree“ sprang to mind. And then Dad drops one on his son‘s head! Brilliant! 🍎
I always picked up the windfalls for applesauce.....Lovely!!

William looks so much like his Mommy. Amazing young man.
Dads colouring, Moms features …William is a lovely young man and a natural on video 😊
Omg I really enjoyed father and son apple picking!! ❤
He’s got his mothers personality…❤

Lovely to meet William. Father and son are quite the comedy team 😂😂😂😂😂Those apples looked delicious 😋

Awww❤ so grown up and tall! Great combination of both of you!

Long line of British humor over picking apples. Cheers guys..

Good afternoon from sunny Gatineau, Quebec, Canada!!! ❤❤❤

Love chutney here in Charlotte NC!

Good catcher.!
You guys are hysterical. Such dry humor and definitely NOT prepared to do serious apple picking. Loved this video!
My goodness! Luke has a “mini-me!” Such a Sandwich resemblance! 🫨😂🙌
Such a handsome young man! Welcome to the channel William.
A pleasure to meet your adorable and handsome son William. Fun video.❤
Very much enjoyed this episode, from beginning to end. Thank you and cheers from San Diego🌴☀️👋🏻
Love from lower Alabama in the US.
Did you survive Helene?
Delicious boy, the apple our eye. Bravo you lot, what beauty you give us. Thank you. Proud Mama and Dadda.
Very Handsome young man
Well done again today. Watching your presentations is really enjoyable.
Our nearby apple orchard is open for business and picking apples is a total delight! William looks like a pro!
Careful William is too cute🥰 lovely to meet you. A wonderful family. 💋💋💋
Looks like mom, acts like dad! ❤
That was lovely. ❤❤😊
Hi William! Thanks for helping pick apples.
Goodness gracious, Dad, you are bruising them all when you toss them into the bin.

I will definitely try chutney recipe , not sure will it taste as good as Beryl's but hope it's going to be close enough😊😀

I never thought that watching Luke and William picking (and mostly eating) apples could be so enjoyable. William and Luke and wonderful together! ❤
Looks a lot like his Mama! William is my eldest sons name.
I thought it was Nestor...he and William sure look alike!
SO blond!
I thought it was Nestor at first as well. Hello William. Lovely to meet you. Welcome to TH-cam. Super kind to help with the apples 🍎
Blessings
Yes! Me, too. It took me a minute. Such a great episode. 🥰
I think Nestor is taller? They were both in Italy.
Luke, your son is very handsome and quite hilarious, just like his father. Your sense of humor is addicting.❤
They are creating a memory that will be treasured by father & son.
Watching you two piok apples reminded me I have nice cold apples in the fridge to eat...thanks. I am thankful for TH-cam so I can pause and go get a healthy snack
Yes, no low hanging fruit…you have to work for the best, higher up! Life lesson for young William. 🍎🍏
Delightful video with wonderful cheerful music
A new star in the family! Well done.
All your kids are gorgeous, Julie.. ❤
Very nice young man . He likes to help.
How nice to see your son. How handsome he is.
What a sweet mom you have. Loved seeing William helping his dad. He has a great sense of humor.
He does have his dad's sense of humor they're so much alike

The ladder wasn't locked. It was worrisome. The apples look scrumptuous!

Do you give the ground apples that are a bit spoiled to the pigs you raise?
Great question. I was wondering if any animals had already been indulging on the grounded apples.

Very Good. J.C. the Apple tree. Good job Luke.Well done preserving the word Julie.;)
This is so adorable! ❤ Your relationship, son and father, apple picking. He has your humor dad. 😉 Welcome in front of the camera William! Adventure awaits! 👏
Put netting on the ground around the tree to catch those that fall while you're picking. You could just shake the branches.
Lovely to hear about Matthews passion for stone work and how that has spread to his children! Very talented family!
What a beautiful " father / son " episode ❤....handsome young man ...all the best to the beautiful " family "
This is a great family. I like them. Very polite and polished.
I think you ate more than you picked. They look really good. My apple tree dropped all its apples early this year. Nice finally meeting William.

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode, such a fun video. Luke and William are so funny, I half expected them to start pelting each other with apples 🍎 🤣
William and Luke seem so similar. Very lovely and well mannered young man. Those apples look great!It was nice to meet more of your family.
Such a beautiful countryside. I hope the animals are there to be cared for and not to be sold for meat. Looks like there is enough space there to design and build a beautiful country village. William is a lucky boy to have such a lovely place to live.
