- Went to our new DUMP! Must see What I found!
We FINALLY were able to get back to the dump for a dump haul! We sorted through the landfill room and found trash to could turn into treasure. I found an antique furniture piece!
You are one strong woman unloading those trees by yourself. Awesome find
The dumps here in New Zealand have the “Reuse Shops”. Any crockery, jars, paint and furniture, toys, clothes - anything that is reusable gets dropped off and they sort it, if it’s damaged they won’t take it and you dump them. You can get some real bargains, not free like your one. Some are a bit expensive but it certainly saves so much “stuff “ being dumped.
OMG Kudos to this landfill, WHAT !!! they even have a building & ppl can sort things instead of everything being trashed / destroyed ❤️❤️❤️ it
Soooooooo happy for you guys, What a Better system vs the other one
Yay GREENHOUSE, not sure of your plans but Roots n Refuge built theirs last year from Old Windows 🪟
Maybe check them out
Goooooo Nova Scotia w/ those big fruit trees 🌳🌳🌳
Can’t wait for the Kitchen 🤗🤗🤗
✌️ Marta K. Cheering you on from AZ USA
I love when you and your husband recycle items. ❤
Great to see how that landfill (and treasure room) is managed. Good on you guys! LOVE the fruit trees, strawberries, bulbs and berry bushes! 🌳🌷🌳🌷🫐🍓🍇🌳👍😎🇨🇦
SOOOOOOOOI much better! Back to your roots which I LOVE!!!!!!
A dump trip! A greenhouse trip! I'm in heaven!
Loved today's video!!! 🤟💙😊
I love that you’re doing this video I miss watching you make something beautiful from something that’s trash to someone else . That’s a great idea that everything isn’t just piled up in mounds of trash and they’ve separated it so that someone can take something from it instead of just throwing it all together . If only everyone did that it would save so much of our planet .
Love your dump flips! I love it when people redo old or discarded items and keep them out of the dump. ❤️
It’s also a tribute to your lovely community that your dump is so neat and tidy. Everyone seems to be considerate and is putting things in the right place, that makes all the difference. Looks like Nova Scotia was meant to be your home. 🏠🥰❤️🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
I love your enthusiasm! You and your husband are adorable. How exciting, the fruit trees and a greenhouse. And those evergreens on your property are to die for. I really enjoyed this video.
I love love love when you go to the dump and get stuff. I can’t wait to see everything y’all do. Love y’all God bless
Love how they do this! It is such a great model for how landfills should be run. So glad you are able to return to this kind of video. These upcycling from the dump is why I started following in the first place.
Me too!
I heard Louisiana has an organized dump, something like. Can't recall city name, though.
Yes, me too!
Me too 😍 I found this channel because of this videos and I love her making trash to treasure!
me too
I love dumps that have a “take it or leave it” space - so happy you found your happy place. 😊
I wish ours had that because we have laws again dumpster or dump diving. Everything goes to waste
The ideal time to plant your trees and perennials is actually when they're dormant! So, your timing is great. You can wait until they drop leaves, and you'll significantly reduce the amount of transplant shock they experience.
So excited for the future homestead!!
Oh Wow! Fresh eggs, the dump, lumber yard, and garden center all wrapped up into one video! Excited to see all of it! I was so hoping you would get blueberries! I planted my first one this year along with quite a few raspberries and blackberries! You should look into a garden stalk! They are amazing for planting alot of plants in a small area! Got my first one this year, and hoping to get another just for my everbearing strawberries! It would look great on your deck! When you go to plant the trees,keep in mind how big they will get and deer love that fresh fruit, and they will eat it all even before it's ripe! Can't wait to see your kitchen cabinets!
Love the trash to treasure you always make things look amazing, looking forward to your greenhouse build keep up with your great work xx
Glad you're going to finally get your greenhouse! Can't wait to see the kitchen!
My husband (72) and his brother.(80) used to listen to the Braves baseball games on their family radio. It was a big deal to own one back then as they weren’t from a wealthy family and with no television, it was their entertainment. The radio still works and provides us with fun nostalgic entertainment. Would be fun to find someone who could restore that radio. ❤️❤️❤️
That chair with the round seat is so cute and also love the old radio cabinet!
So excited about the fruit trees, plants, and vines .. Nothing better than having home grown fruit and you made great choices .
Love all of this! I’m a furniture artists. I reclaim vintage and antique furniture and flip it for a profit. (Keeping some of my favorites for our home.) So, I’m super excited to see you flip that vanity. Also, I can’t wait to see the greenhouse build. That is one of my dreams for our homestead.
I love the refuse system in NS! It's good to know that it can be done!
I think the chair will be too big for the vanity, but I can't wait to see them finished.
The greenhouse and fruit trees are exciting! You got so much from that garden center!!
Looking forward to all of your projects. Since you won’t need all the cabinets at Little Blue, perhaps use some in your laundry room at home or for project materials. Your sink and faucet is totally my style! Love them!!
I would use the vanity in the little blue cottage bedroom 💙
When I was a kid in California they did it this way. Mom and Dad found all kinds of great things from time to time.
Such a great idea to have a set aside area at a dump! It breaks my heart to see all that’s going into our landfills!
All the wonderful things you’ll have next year - I know it will take a while to get the apples and pears going but you have a lot there that will pay off next year probably. I love the fact that you’re so excited about everything! Enjoy!
I am so looking forward to your kitchen renovation with the new plans.
Braeburns are the apples I buy here 🇬🇧🇬🇧 love them ... my absolute fav ! So exciting to grow your own fruit I can imagine you're already so exciting to pick them 🤩🤩
Our dumps are gated and manned with staff with huge skips for every different thing and we are not allowed to take things away 😢😢 we would have to ask permission from the managers at the site and they dint always say yes which is tragic when you see something incredible.
Having grown up on farming. Dairy, crop, and married into farming (41) years. I am 59 and am not creative but Elysia is true farm girl loading and unloading and just doing!
Love the idea of a reuse in the dumpster! Great find!
So enjoy your show in so many ways. Can not wait to see your kitchen!
Looking forward to the kitchen build. You so creative and I can't wait for you and Phillip to begin this project. AND, I loved seeing you back at the dump again. Can't wait for the vanity upcycle.
You can grow food throughout the winter. Also start your seeds. Smart move. I just love your journeys and adventures
I just love when you guys go to the dump yard!!! Love your flips!
I can't pick a favorite project; I am excited to see all of it!
WOW!! I am soooo EXCITED (& thrilled) for y'all! Working on your new kitchen,,,.. Greenhouse/fruit trees....furniture to restore! Y'all will make it turn out fantastic! God bless
I love that items get recycled. As I mentioned before, I started a place in my hometown in Sask that I take in and give away usable items for free. We call it Jack's Place home of second hand treasures and started a facebook page for it.
Thank you for doing that, I try my best to save or recycle items 💗
Elysia, I love all of the trees and the projects you have coming up.
I love the way the dump was set up. They should all do it that way. Your going to have a good amout of fruit and berries that going to be great. Can"t wait to see your cabnets. You will make them bueatiful.
Can't wait to see the green house. I have been given 6 2.13 meter high glass doors to make a green house with. So very excited.
You hit the jackpot today! Can't wait to see the greenhouse!
Look at all those plants and trees!😃
You have such a nice spot for them too. Can't wait to see the greenhouse too🙂
I'm loving the fact that you went back to the dump I was so excited I wanted to go with you LOL I love the little vanity I think you should put it in the little blue and I can't wait to see what you've done with the kitchen I'm so excited I love you guys God bless you
Ah yes, the Dump smile!
Elysia be careful of old radio cabinets. I encountered asbestos (used for heat protection) in one I was repurposing. Such a cool old cabinet though!!
That vanity would be great for you B&B home too. I am excited for you to have the greenhouse. I want to build one next spring. Lol along with the chicken house and small barn. Lol big year for me starting next spring. Raspberries multiply quickly. You will have a full grove of plants next year. So plan a row area to allow for multiplying. The first time I put in the beds I did not plan on the rapid expansion and had to dig a new area for them. I ended up with 7 50 ft rows the first and second year. After that I potted the new growth and sold them for $2.50 each. I did the same thing with my strawberry plants. I even sold them to a local hardware store that had a garden center. The excess berries were purchased by a local restaurant for pies etc. Lol before we knew it we had a truck farm. I had an herb garden that was prolific, so bagged up the herbs In cute packaging and the local grocery store purchased them.
Could you use some of doors and windows from dump for your greenhouse 🤔😍
LOVE at of the trees and plants!!
Green houses are so important to start some veggies. Glad you are get going.
Good finds Elisha don't forget to stake your tree's I reckon you'll have some fierce winds this winter have a day love from TEXAS
This is great news to be able to get them in before winter. Fruit in your own back yard. Very cool!
First, those eggs are amazing. The yolks in a farm fresh egg is such a rich golden yellow. Good job, chickens!
I live in Ohio, and they pick trash up at curb where it gets compacted. They dump the load at the landfill.
You are so right when you said things in Nova Scotia are sorted and given a 2nd chance. More work, but more eco-friendly.
It's so nice to see that there are still dumps out there that let you rescue items from the landfill, that just make sense. I saw that you bought fruit trees and some bushes, that is fantastic, so excited for you to have fresh fruit right off of your own trees there is nothing like it. Have you tried Haskap or honey berries? They are similar to blue berries and will grow pretty much anywhere, if you can get your hands on them you should give them a try as well. Enjoy the fruits of your labor. Happy planting. Thanks again for the amazing content that you both put out for us! Coni
Can’t wait to see it all come together!
Hi from Sweden "English" Family! 🇸🇪
Just wasn't to tell you that there are apricot vareities that would work very well where you are located... In Sweden with its nordic cold conditions, we have a variety called 'Frost' that works very well planted outdoors in the open ground. And it tastes well.
I live on the Swedish west coast and here I have many neighbours that grow them..... Me, I live in an apartment and would probably be able to grow that variety in a big pot! So do some searching and you will certainly find a very hardy variety for your conditions.💖👍🏻
Kitchen n greenhouse projects are what I'm looking forward to.
I am a gardner by profession and this is the perfect time to plant fruit, looking forward to seeing the garden, but right now I am looking forward to the craft fair and the projects for it. I am working diligently on my crafts for my fair starting nov. 20.
Can't wait to see what you do with the dressing table with the mirror, but look forward to seeing the greenhouse too. X
Can't wait to see what you do with all your finds!
I really love how you guys seem to be leaning to content that originally attracted me to your channel. It’s always been my favourite. TFS from a subscriber close to your old neck of the woods 🇨🇦🌲
I love, love your videos of repurposing. Our center stopped letting us take anything, which is so disheartening, I got the ole stink-eye when I asked them to help out with the environment. We are thrilled to see you keeping up the efforts.
I am excited to see your orchard take shape. I always find the ways owners protect against animal damage interesting. But....I. most excited to see which room becomes your kitchen. I have an idea, can't wait to see if I'm right.
Braeburn apples are one of my favorites. You'll love those.
Elysia you are living the dream 💕 Thank you for sharing your family’s blessings and adventures
I'm excited to see all the projects you have planned. But would be more excited to see how the puppies are doing.
Can't wait for all of them! That dump is absolutely amazing! So happy you found it & no punishment or restrictions on it! Being able to build what you want to without restrictions is amazing also! I can't imagine being told what you can build or how much you can build! We live in the US, Missouri, out in the country & there are no restrictions! I suppose in some bigger cities there is. But small towns have no zoning laws or any of that.
It's great to see you getting back to your original roots & recycling things! The vanity would make a cool vanity for the zinc in the bathroom at little blue or somewhere in your home, with a little restructuring added to make it work! If anyone is capable of that it would be you guys.
I feel a garage make over may be in the works for all the projects. Since winter is getting closer & closer. Working outside will most likely come to a screeching hault if there is no where to get out of the winter weather. Maybe the garage is allready suitable, I can't remember seeing it in past videos.
I only mention it, because we are fast approaching the colder mths. & working on many projects ourselves that we are kinda worried about accomplishing in the colder mths. We have a very nice Shop, but no source of wood heat that we have got around to setting up yet. Hoping to get it in before winter hits.
You guys are amazing! Resources are finally coming around for you, that should be of great help with all you are capable of if you have the things you need to work with!
Can hardly wait to see those kitchen cabinets!
Great video ! You should go back to the dump and get those old windows to use for your greenhouse!
My local dump does the same thing, but they SELL the items for nominal amounts. This revenue stream helps keep the costs of dumping to a minimum. So excited for your dump picking videos again. They were the ones that got me into your channel. I can't believe that raised garden beds were considered a "structure" under your yard usage limitations back in Ontario. Elevated or not, they're still just a garden.
Can you turn the chair that you picked up at Little Blue into a stool with a long skirt, for the vanity you got at the dump? Glad you guys are feeling better. Thanks for sharing your projects. Can't wait for you to start work on your kitchen. Hurry up !!!!!!!!
Excited about your kitchen upcycle, greenhouse, orchard; in that order. I love your new plan for the kitchen.
Kitchen project is my favorite the green house will be wonderful as well as the trees and berry bushes have your hearts desire I wish it was me
Make sure when you plant your trees that you tie them off a little bit so that way the snow won't pull them in any direction and they'll break.
Excited about all the projects but most excited about your new kitchen. I can't believe you have been without a kitchen for so long. It is interesting that you've lived in the house and now want to move the kitchen. So maybe the delay was a blessing in disquise.
You scored with that vanity. Give it a little love and it will be so cute!
I'm excited to see the trees and berries do! I'm inspired!!
I am super excited to see your new kitchen cabinets. Also love all the new plants.
Love all the fruit trees. Love blueberries & raspberries. Can’t wait till you get everything going❤️
Those were some awesome finds and I can’t wait to see how the vanity and little chair turns out. Keep finding and saving things GOD Bless and stay safe.🙏🏾💖💯💫
Would love to have some fruit trees, so happy that your going to have an amazing Greenhouse, and can’t wait to see your new kitchen, I’m so excited for you all, 🥰
The beginnings of so many great things look forward to seeing you harvesting fruit next season . A green house I'm a little envious xx
Glad you are feeling better. Whatever you guys touch turns to beauty!!!
Elysia,
You had me LOL @ the clown car comment 🤣 😂 I was thinking it as you were pulling out the trees too❣
Wow.Great finds at the dump.Can't wait to see the transformations.Watching you pull all of those trees out of your vehicle made me laugh.I kept thinking of how you and your son must have felt like you were in the jungle on the ride home.
😊🌳🌱🌳🪴🌲🌳🌴🌳🌴🌿🤭
I'm looking forward to it all, but most excited about the greenhouse and kitchen!
Goodness lots of fab projects coming up. Can’t wait to see the progress.
You could use it for the literature like you mentioned...and have a cute special framed picture on the top with a little lamp and a welcome basket for when guests arrive..and you could have the guest sign in book there also...
Woah! Love that take home building at the dump! So smart.
I love the idea of the dump and love watching the growth
I absolutely love you and your wonderful family.My husband and I are going to tour Canada next year .We can’t wait we want to see the real Canada not just the tourist parts .This trip has been on our bucket list for many years we cannot believe we are only months away from fulfilling.our dream Nova Scotia has been top of the list .Thank you for all your inspiration and talent you share with your viewers Hugs and have a blessed day from Uk.x
Cute little dresser. You are so good with your furniture flips.
Woohoo greenhouse super excited 😊 👏👏👏👏
You should have a nice blend of apples to make homemade applesauce. That vanity at the dump was a sweet find! I also think the radio cabinet is cool too.
I'm excited to eatch your orchard come to fruition but I'm more excited about the kitchen. I am amazed you have coped without one for 6 months. It will be fabulous. We have a revycling place down the road from us but we can't take anything. We used to be able to but not anymore. We have lots of recycling done in charity shops. They are full of donated furniture and all proceeds go to whichever charity the shop is for. There is the British heart foundation.....many different Hospices....the Childrens society and many more. Of course we are in Manchester England. Whatever you do then i know it will be fabulous. XX
Looking forward to your projects in your new garden! I’m in 6a in Michigan & my peach tree did amazing! So, go for it. I also have the arctic kiwi vine.(which should have a male and female vine to produce the fruit) I would suggest you make a very large trellis for it to grow on. Because it loves to be in the sun and grows at least 35 feet long. (I have to prune mine all summer because I didn’t realize how big they got) out of all the years I’ve had the vine it has only produced Kiwi ‘s once that were edible. (I hope you have better success). When building your greenhouse. Make sure the northside/roof and all around the bottom edges are insulated and have siding. It will help you keep it warm during the cold nights. We heat ours with a woodstove but I would suggest you get a larger one to keep it going during the night. Mine only lasts for about three hours of heating. We use solar fans to cool it in the summer. And utilized old windows.
For your fruit trees I would suggest that you protect them with metal fencing from the deer. (Cattle panel on a roll & t-posts.) wrap the trunk of the tree from rabbits gurgling (chewing) it during the winter. PS. Do some research on bone sauce. This is not a barbecue sauce 😉but a process of cooking down bones that deter dear for 10 years. It’s interesting…
Exciting!!! Glad you are doing the market place kitchen. Seems like old times back at the dump. 😊
I'm so excited for you both and your boys don't forget get your garden bed ready now so you can start getting stuff to break down into it for the winter love you guys
Hi Elysia Philip & boys,another great video.Have a wonderful week ahead.👏🏻☺️👍🏻
Great place to find amazing goodies to upcycle. How fun!!!
I love it when you go to the dump. Redo fun.
You can save those big pots for future planting,herb gardens etc
