I loved when you said I care more about my animals well being than my neighbors opinion of me. Absolutely, today people were coming over and I felt anxious because my back porch is a total mess. It is a total mess because I moved my 12 goats on to it during a storm and flash flood for the past week. My husband gave me a sweet pep talk.
Your post caused unexpected emotions. Thank you for sharing, I teared up! I love that your husband gave you a pep talk instead of giving you a hard time for it not being clean before the guests arrived! ❤
I'd be your perfect neighbor. Just tear down the fence. Anne, husband, parents, goats and cows, dogs, frogs, whatever...all welcome on my property. As long as I can play with the goats. I love goats. So much personality, plus I'm a Capricorn. 😊
You are quickly becoming my new favorite! I started watching you about nine months ago, you have a different style, I dig it! I appreciate how honest you are on your channel. In one of your videos when your hand was hurt, you were emotional and saying it was worth it if you helped even one person, it's helping me now. Thank you.
It was great to meet you today. Thanks for taking the time to answer so many of my questions. All this can be a bit intimidating, as I'm sure you know. I think the only other question I had was about the wood chips. Do they attract pests like ants or anything? If so, it's that a problem? I also wanted to say that you are an inspiration. It seems like you have been through a whole lot. The way you handle it with honesty, openness, and somehow still find joy is really beautiful. I'm very sorry to hear about your recent loss. I don't know what your beliefs are, but if it's ok, I'll be praying for you. Thanks again.
If the wood chips are from cypress or cedar trees, the natural oils in them will repel insects. Other types will attract them. This can be a problem because the insects can damage your garden plants and structures. Insects that like to nest in them include earwigs, roaches, carpenter ants, and termites.
I planted Orville Redinbacher popcorn in my bark mulch garden last year as a total experiment and it was old and had been in our freezer for a few years so I had zero expectations but as Anne would say “boy howdy!” did I get a popcorn crop!
I want to grow popcorn, so bad! I couldn’t find seeds at the store, and was too lazy to order them. I will be planting regular popcorn seed next year because of you! Thank you so much.
@@wendylambel39 I’m so excited to have been able to help Wendy! Best of luck and maybe a year from now you can look me up and let me know how it turns out? Thanks for letting me know that you’re going to try this out too, gardening is so fun hey? FYI, I clarified butter and popped my corn in that and it tastes just like movie theatre popcorn! Yum! 👍😁. Have a super day!
Your pawpaw tree is similar to my peach tree. I’m in zone 3/4b where peach trees don’t grow. So I purchased the most cold hearty peach tree I could find and planted it on the south side of my house where it gets full sun all day and is protected from the wind by the house and is close enough, 10’ , to get some warmth from the foundation in the winter. The tree is now three years old and is thriving. It produced blossoms for the first time ever, some of which produced peaches. After enduring a hailstorm there is one peach still on the tree. I’m hoping that by October I will be able to eat that peach and share it with my best friends.
This year, I have volunteer chamomile, strawberries, mint, zinnias, marigolds, sunflowers and tomatoes that have all just popped up wherever...and I'm letting them go for it since I can't seem to grow grass.
@ChelleyV0807 I found the information in a book titled Southwest Medicinal Plants by John Slattery. Bermuda grass has a very long history in India as a healing agent for many ailments. The thing that stood out to me was that it is a "potent inhibitor of MRSA and other pathogenic microbes". Supposedly, it also helps with rheumatoid arthritis and neurodegenerative diseases, among many other ailments. I love this book, as I live in the Southwest and have many of these plants and trees in my backyard, but it may be a good book for anyone to own.
Bc of you, I'm totally reworking my in ground garden. I've come to the realization that I must embrace the weeds for now... Once things cool down it's on! Thank you for inspiring me💞🤗
I love your good common sense, years of experience making the best of the time you have and your sense of humor. Not every top-notch gardener says “because veggies are disgusting on their own” 😂 and who doesn’t have a Jeffrey in their life, in some form or another. All of my Jeffreys are chickens and squirrels. Maybe if I took cute portraits of each of them being their cute selves, I’d be able to laugh more at their crimes too. ❤Thank you for being real, vulnerable and honest.
“ You get what I give you !” 😂 If you wrap the tomato plant around a tomato cage like a tomato hurricane,it works well. Use bonsai wire. Plants don’t need every leaf to be pretty and perfect. The fruit is what matters. Even remove leaves shading fruiting sites. Lazy DOGGO time,lol!! 😊
Well Anne, is there no end to your accomplishments and talents? A fluent Chinese speaker no less! Colour me so impressed....by your garden AND your linguistic skills ❤
Hello from eastern Canada :) You're so funny Anne!!! Such a delight and a nice change from all my other YTers. Thanks for the laughs and the gardening tips!
Way too much Bermuda grass over here in M'boro! It is the one thing I hate about gardening, but I'm going to keep on gardening and killing Bermuda grass just as long as the good Lord is willing. God bless y'all and keep growing.
I'm loving your trug! The self-seeding, self-renewing garden is totally one of my goals. Michael "Skeeter" Pilarski talks about "closed canopy gardening" where there are leaves photosynthesizing everywhere and no visible soil surface anywhere.
@AnneofAllTrades transplant shock - 1tsp epsom salt per litre water. Been using for years very successfully. Inch high self sown lettuce seedlings transplanted on 36C/97F day with no wilt. One year we moved 30+ azalea bushes, many flowering, during a drought and they contributed to flower and leaves didn’t wilt. Also, stick tomato cuttings in bottles water to get them rooted.
So exciting to finally see your video! I saw a hobby farm that let their Runner Ducks into each garden for a day. They eat bugs but no plants. Crazy easy way to keep your produce pest free .
Jeffrey: the problem child! ❤️ the tomato hack to propagate more plants. Zone 7a: had first real garden this past summer…still have tomatoes in December. You’re such a great teacher and a joy to “spend time with.“ Thanks for sharing and caring! 🤗
Great video as usual. I have one really important piece of advice from experience; "Never, ever, ever wind Kiwi through any kind of metal lattice..., ever. The damage to the extremely fast growing plant can kill it, or cause so much damage, you will have to cut the wire from it. I am currently fixing this exact problem for my mothers Kiwi's. The Kiwi's were just old enough to produce their first little crop when they also grew around and through the fencing they had used as trellising so thickly, they began to die off. She lost most of the females and nearly lost the male. I managed to cut the fencing away and install a new overhead trellising system (A Polish system in fact), and I was able to get some cuttings from the girls to take root, it will be another 5-6 years before she see's another crop though.
Thank you! I am home bound and miss gardening. I just found your channel this morning. Your videos bring back happy memories and bring me great joy! Thank you!!
I just found and subscribed to your channel. As I was watching for about an hour or more, I started thinking, this viedo is lastiing so long. Then I realized, it was on autoplay. I also sent this channel to my friend and son. Thank You for sharing.
One thing with Paw paw trees- the sucker . So expect them to start showing up . We have a 10 year old tree and suckers running under ground 25 ft away. They are a nuisance in a raspberry garden. I enjoy your channel. Blessings and happy growing everyone.
So wish could just live there with you all on the land With my rabbits do gardening and woodworking. My fur children would LOVE to help eat those greens and offer their bunny gold maybe meet your rabbit. Lol Thank you Anne, from another Ann w/o the E 😊❤
I could listen and watch all day if I had such kind of time. So much to learn and I love it. It’s almost overwhelming amount of content. You are absolutely amazing, above all.
Bermuda grass is the bane of my community garden. I tried the cardboard and mulch n April. It’s now growing though now. Problem is my neighbor plots often let them go wild. The cardboard/mulch has definitely helped. Zone 7a/b northern Virginia, love your advice!
Hi, Anne! I really enjoyed listening to you at the Modern homesteading conference this past weekend. You bring an ease to being able to maintain a big family garden. Thanks 😊
The garlic doesn’t have to cure in the sun, it just needs a dry location with good airflow. Hanging in a hayloft or from the porch rafters or other such location will do the trick. Also, storing it with the stalk intact will help to increase the shelf life somewhat.
You are my favorite love watching you.made my night always learn something.going through a lot right now and gets me away.lpve your company.no stress.gardening is my outlet.
Sunflowers are my favorite companion plant.. ants and aphids don't care to eat anything else.. plus awesome shade cover that grows as it gets hot.. and, lady bugs love laying eggs on them.. I plant them everywhere. The tallest is around 14 feet tall.. Let's grow Brandon!
That sunflower is at least 2.3 Anne! Creating stuff is amazing. I'm barely keeping up with my bees this year. I either cracked then code or landed in s bumper crop year. Hope all is well, and press on when it ain't.
I love your personality and am always entertained by your videos. But today was extra special because of the Chinese! It was such a surprise, and a treat for my ears! Yet another reason to love you!
Came in from the garden/greenhouse & saw you had a vid up . Yipppeeee I needed this today 😉 You are an absolute joy to watch🤩 Entertainment & garden tips all in one. 😂. You are amazing 👍👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Thank you for being so real! I love how UNPERFECTLY PERFECT your garden is! It makes me feel so seen, lol! I second guessed myself and over researched how to companion plant what /where in my "lazy" garden but thanks to you it is feeling less stressful and I'm good with it working or not working in the end. I love the method of learning it all, but I am also super hard on myself if I don't do something, "correct." But it seems like we are very likeminded with trying to mimic nature and not making it overcomplicated. Thank you for showing me how that actually is possible! So far, it's going great! I'm so excited! Question though- I thought planting multiple kinds of corn next to each other was a no-go? I think that's one of my most favorite things about you is your simple way of mixing seeds and saying we will see what happens and also how close you put everything. I wish you had a video of what you plant next to what and where and how to do it all, lol PLEASE BE MY LEADER! HAHA! Im hoping I didn't screw it up too much. I binged your videos and think I did pretty ok. But we shall see. Also, my "Jeffrey" in my life (other than my chickens and children) is my Pig "Potader." Last summer he ate my blueberry bush! Much like your Lucy, he is useless, but I love him (most of the time). I almost tossed it, but luckily (thanks to my laziness to actually take the time to remem to toss it), my little jerk didn't ruin it completely. My blueberry bush started coming back this year! He is lucky! Haha Thank you for making me laugh and making me feel like I can be productive even if it isn't perfect and a little lazy. So far I am loving my lazy garden! People think it is genius! I send them your way!
Planting different varieties of corn near each other is only an issue If you are going to plant them. They will pollinate from what's nearby, so while the plant is still the genetic variety you planted, the kernels will have the genes of the pollinator/s variety as well.
Anne I have been watching your videos for a while now and I want to say your videos are the best. Every time I go to my garden and see weeds, I say it’s a lazy garden so I don’t have to pull them. Haha Have a wonderful day! Cheers!!❤
I absolutely love and learn from your videos! 💕 I started lazy gardening this year using wood chips. It's been 80s and 90s all ready and i am having to water, but not as much as last year.😊 Here in the 🏜️ desert part of WA we have that insidious Bermuda grass! Thankful it's no longer a problem in my garden, just in my landscaping. I'm fighting a huge patch of it right now! It is coming up through my mulch and cardboard so I'm raking it all back and going to start over with a thicker layer of cardboard. That stuff is evil!!!
I planted my tomato trimmings on shortish stems in 9cm pots and they rooted to the bottom of the pots in a week (it's been about 20C, but they are in a shelter that makes it warmer in the afternoon). It worked just as well (or better) than my usual long stem method. Epic Gardening have a good video on an experiment they did with different depths of planting for tomato transplants (TL;DR; just buryi at soil level ). So I figured I'd try the same with cuttings.
Nice! I planted artichokes where we had to many thistles. They're in the same family and love the spot that belonged to the thistles before. Just like your lemongrass example.
Just found your videos, love the info & your energy. In reference to pop corn, my husband grew up on a farm in Kansas. His family grew wheat, but a neighbor grew popcorn. Lightning struck his field resulting in burning acres, popping all the cobs, looking like snow falling up then covering the ground. The next day all the wild birds feasted.
I love your videos; 9 month growing season? wish I had that; living in Northeast Pennsylvania makes having a garden challenging but not impossible- I've used a lot of your tips. Thanks; keep these coming.
Bermuda Grass has underground and above ground stolon runners and seeds. Some former owner of my home here in the Mojave desert of Arizona (Zone 8B) planted a lawn of it over the septic drainage field. We have a quarter acre lot but I mostly have only one side of the home to garden with and most is in raised beds and large planters/pots. I do have a small in ground spot I am amending and working to improve.
Middle row strawberries😂 Replaced my front lawn two years ago with an edible perennial garden. Its a hot mess after a year of neglect... But the strawberries have spread everywhere and I am happy to see them.
Thank you for sharing. I am learning so much. I am in a hot climate and covering the ground seems to be working. I am sure it will do better the more I put on it. Have a great day.
The half-shaven alpaca cracked me up so much! 🤣 Hahaha! Oh, man. Poor thing. Anyway, thank you for sharing with us, Anne! The garden is a triumph. Well done! ❤️
After watching my wife work for hours doing her garden weeding and now watching your videos I’m really tempted to start my own garden. Going to save cardboard and wood chips (2 box truck loads) and this fall will be carving out a huge area for my garden next year or the next?
Zinnias are my new favorites. Ive never planted flowers before. This was my first year. I am now a full on flower lover. I wanted to attract more pollinators and hummers. Forget me nots Zinnia Mexican sunflower Zinnia Marigold Baby's breath Corn flowers 4 o'clock flowers Hollyhocks Morning glories Theres more but I forgot right now
Speaking of asparagus allergies! My dog has been sticking her head inside of asparagus bush and standing there, meditating for about 10 minutes a few times a day every day for the past 2 years. Any thoughts? In winter she does the same thing, but with a dining table.
I loved when you said I care more about my animals well being than my neighbors opinion of me. Absolutely, today people were coming over and I felt anxious because my back porch is a total mess.

Dang, I’ll catch this after gardening! Who doesn’t love Anne?!
She’s awesome. I adore her!
She’s the best!!!
Only those who do not know her.

Even though Bermuda grass is a medicinal plant, it is the bane of my garden. I am constantly battling it. It's relentless.

It's been 80s and 90s all ready and i am having to water, but not as much as last year.😊 Here in the 🏜️ desert part of WA we have that insidious Bermuda grass! Thankful it's no longer a problem in my garden, just in my landscaping. I'm fighting a huge patch of it right now! It is coming up through my mulch and cardboard so I'm raking it all back and going to start over with a thicker layer of cardboard. That stuff is evil!!!
1:10 that is nature’s pollinator billboard right there! I’ll take that billboard any day of the week!
The face on your pig is Priceless!
1 clove of traditionnal french garlic probably is taste wise similar to a head of other garlic, I approve.
Your reaction when he sneezed was so funny I had to keep re-watching that part over and over. You looked so offended 😂
😂😂😂 bodily functions of any kind are illogically repulsive to me
I planted my tomato trimmings on shortish stems in 9cm pots and they rooted to the bottom of the pots in a week (it's been about 20C, but they are in a shelter that makes it warmer in the afternoon). It worked just as well (or better) than my usual long stem method.
Epic Gardening have a good video on an experiment they did with different depths of planting for tomato transplants (TL;DR; just buryi at soil level ). So I figured I'd try the same with cuttings.
Thanks so much for another great garden tour, my dear friend
Nice! I planted artichokes where we had to many thistles. They're in the same family and love the spot that belonged to the thistles before. Just like your lemongrass example.
Just found your videos, love the info & your energy. In reference to pop corn, my husband grew up on a farm in Kansas. His family grew wheat, but a neighbor grew popcorn. Lightning struck his field resulting in burning acres, popping all the cobs, looking like snow falling up then covering the ground. The next day all the wild birds feasted.
I love your videos; 9 month growing season? wish I had that; living in Northeast Pennsylvania makes having a garden challenging but not impossible- I've used a lot of your tips. Thanks; keep these coming.
Bermuda Grass has underground and above ground stolon runners and seeds. Some former owner of my home here in the Mojave desert of Arizona (Zone 8B) planted a lawn of it over the septic drainage field. We have a quarter acre lot but I mostly have only one side of the home to garden with and most is in raised beds and large planters/pots. I do have a small in ground spot I am amending and working to improve.
Middle row strawberries😂
Replaced my front lawn two years ago with an edible perennial garden.
Its a hot mess after a year of neglect... But the strawberries have spread everywhere and I am happy to see them.
2:08 snap 😂 it needs to produce food or be beneficial to prevent garden pests!
I love your real lazy farmer tip, "let your friends grow it for you".
Thank you for sharing. I am learning so much. I am in a hot climate and covering the ground seems to be working. I am sure it will do better the more I put on it. Have a great day.
Picture this is my favorite!!
Thats how ai remember what Ive got coming up too
Your garden has given me SO MUCH INSPIRATION!
The half-shaven alpaca cracked me up so much! 🤣 Hahaha! Oh, man. Poor thing. Anyway, thank you for sharing with us, Anne! The garden is a triumph. Well done! ❤️
Yes that’s my favorite app! Worth the money
lol I love how you pick lettuce because I do that too I ain’t got time to delicately pick lettuce. And it does fine!
Great video! Thanks for all the Lazy Gardener tips! Love your garden. I’m putting cardboard down now for my spring garden
After watching my wife work for hours doing her garden weeding and now watching your videos I’m really tempted to start my own garden. Going to save cardboard and wood chips (2 box truck loads) and this fall will be carving out a huge area for my garden next year or the next?
Great informative channel Anne! Keep going!👍
I love lazy gardening. I’ve been doing my version of it for 25 years.
Thank for sharing your tips with us.
Watermelon is my absolute favorite food too Anne. I knew you were a woman with good taste, and your love of watermelon seals the opinion!
I have become a big fan of your channel and can watch it continuously!
I love the way you garden. You temind me of myself❤

Speaking of asparagus allergies! My dog has been sticking her head inside of asparagus bush and standing there, meditating for about 10 minutes a few times a day every day for the past 2 years. Any thoughts? In winter she does the same thing, but with a dining table.
