How Ben is hugging that chicken is one of the most adorable things I’ve seen in a while!!!!!
Ben definitely is the chicken whisperer.
That should be on a shirt
Little chicken nugget. He's going to grow into a well rounded adult.
Dede Tudor I know right???? I AGREE!!! People used to sleep with their farm animals to stay warm in the winter! I was born and raised with animals and so were my children!! none of us have ever got sick!!
All this 100% antibacterial stuff is no good either! My kids played in the dirt & washed in the rain on beautiful summer days & so did I.
People are getting nuts & lacking common sense. I’m so glad I was raised the way I was!😊👍💗🍁🌾🍂🐿🐁🐇🦎🐝🐛🐔🐸🐣
Archa Price He really makes the videos a super joy to watch....he’s so precious! Reminds me of me youngest son although he is 16 now😊
Benjamin is absolutely adorable. His love for animals, nature and family is so cute.
Facts, he’s such a curious kid
I call each garden I have 'my experiment!' (That way there is less judgement if something fails 🤣)
great ginger haul! Also, the stickers are SOOOO cute. Jess, you are something else.
So are you Luke- don't forget it! From, Your friends over in Ontario.
I absolutely adore and and appreciate how you Never tell your kids to stop or be quiet that you stop and answer their questions and listen to them...It warms my heart
Am so sorry that ppl are just randomly dropping by :( I'm sure they mean and well and are just excited but still....
I love it too. I don't have kids so sometimes wonder how that never overwhelms Jess but she handles it all in stride. :)
I love it when Benjamin goes out with you.
They can feel the heart beats, warmth and kinship of each other. Praise God.
Miah explaining Benjamin's silent cry is so funny. He's a wonderful helper and sooooo CA-UTE! His tiny wittle elf voice makes my heart smile🥰😍
Oh be still my heart. I just love Ben. He is going to an amazing man and a great help to you.
Any video that opens with Ben is an automatic thumbs up!
Ben is literally learning all about life, as well as all the other boys, but Ben is a hands on sponge ❤️ absorbing as much as he can with gardening to farming animals to building things like Miah❤️ Jess you are Blessed, loved the devotional yesterday.🙏🏻
You are all a blessing to watch but it so fun to see Ben. His love and enthusiasm for not just for what you do but for being with you and Jeremiah is such a delight to see. Thank you so much for sharing!
When Jess showed the "pop up shop" did anyone else yell, OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So happy for them! Such a cool tool he will have to help others and bring in business.
You guys are super addictive to watch lots of smiles I love it
Put the ginger in your fabulous freeze dryer sliced.You'll have plenty for tea and ginger spice for cooking. Good show,I always love your show and tell episodes.
Put fresh ginger in freezer bags and use a grater and use what you need and place back in freezer.
Good idea, Ronald. Thank you.
I do this. Slice it up before freezing. Or chuck it in the food processor and then freeze little cubes. Or rough chop to use in tea.
MIah! What a GENIUS idea. Take your shop right to where you need it. Everything is there and no running back to the shop to get that one tool you forgot. I would keep it even if you move.
That's a great ginger harvest, seeing your older boys help the younger ones is very sweet. And seeing boys enjoy tea like they do is great! A health giving habit that benefits everyone. Thank you for sharing, can't wait to see the workshop in progress, a great stroke of genius on Miah's part!
When he says ahhhh after his first sip of tea was priceless.
Well there is my answer. Guess I should wait for the complete video before I comment. Ben is such a little sponge about everything natural. So cute.
Jess,
I want to thank you for helping me overcome one of my biggest struggles. I often find myself procrastinating, at best, but more often frozen by indecision. Always worrying about the best way, time, etc to do something. But you have taught me the value and grace of "just try it". Despite the challenges this year has brought, I'm getting more stuff done and am happier about it than ever. I'm jumping in before finalizing the perfect plan and I'm having very successful results. Now, I haven't gone out and bought any animals to keep in my teeny, tiny suburban backyard but I'm growing and eating more of my own food. I'm enjoying being outside more. And as my husband and I approach retirement, I'm thinking about new possibilities and seeing what happens. Thank you!
YES YOU CAN REPLANT THE BUDS WITH THE LEAVES ON
Once again, Miah and Jess have filled my day with Joy except my husband now wants Miah's work shop
Benjamin is such a good helper.
That ginger was soo beautiful. Excited for Miah's new mobile shop!!
Jeremiah keeps track of his stuff.... he should be in charge of coffee cups!☕
I wish you could smell the flowers that ginger plants grow, it’s so fragrant. We make leis out of the flowers here in Hawaii.
Do you have control of the closed captioning? As a hearing impaired person I just want you to know I need it. Love your channel
Thank you for asking, I use closed captioning alot for the same reasons.
I'm also a bit impaired. I can't seem to understand some lower tones, especially if there is background noise. CC is always appreciated!!
This would be great if they can add it!
I agree, those piglets are growing well!
Holy piglet Batman!
LOL!! "I kind of thrive in chaos, my workspaces are a little bit like WOW, they give him an eye twitch"! So funny! That's going to be a cool set up for tools!
This episode was full of t shirt ideas! Just in case it hasn't been suggested yet...how about a shirt with some harvested veggies that says "Learn by putting your hands on it!"
Goodness the little piggies are so adorable. Miah's shop will be awesome. The garden isn't dying it is just living its best winter life.
Miah's shop is going to be epic! I'll send my address so he can come help me build a greenhouse...Dreaming big!
So nice you have a little buddy to help you. So cute. 😊
"What's caffeine?" Needs to be on a shirt Jess.
Your boys are awesome. I think Ben will be the farmer in the family. Either that or he is really attached to you and husband. Love your videos.
I bet the smell of that harvest was intoxicating! 😍
Young ginger is the tastiest ginger to eat (you know it's young when part of it is still pink). It's very rare to see it at a regular market. Chefs, like Ming Sai, make a big deal about using it in their creations. You are very fortunate to have grown some, and have a lot of new growth on it. Perfect for stir fry, fresh eating, tea... Look up recipes for it - especially Chinese and Japanese recipes. Very healthy, very tasty. Enjoy your ginger good fortune!
I love that you shared this! Thanks for the info! I was worried I pulled mine too early, with the pink, now I know I didn’t 😊👍🏻
@@alystodola 👍
Ben is so precious
Yes you absolutely can take the smaller shoots , put them in a pot & keep em inside over winter. Heck I had a huge flower pot with a 8 foot ginger plant in it for a whole year. My mother inlaw asked me to care for it & I became the new owner & until I started smelling it & repotted it, I didn't know that I was gifted so much ginger. Yay Me! There was a huge harvest of ginger. LOL.
A mobile shop was a brilliant idea for your situation, you can take it with you!
Thanks Jeff! That Miah has some good ideas!
Ben makes me so happy. ❤️
roots and refuge on more acreage😍can’t wait for all the content !
cows my friend! I dream of cows!
I slice my ginger into coins and freeze it. I usually use it in Indian cooking.
Finely chopped ginger 'steeped' in raw, organic honey is DIVINE!!!
"What's caffeine"? "Its stuff that makes you crazy" 🤣🤣🤣 I feel you mama! I love that your kids love tea mine are really not fond of it and I keep trying with them
Love your lil Benjamin ❤ so adorable theybare so cute at that age
absolutly you can grow indoors. Love Ben...
Your sidekick is the cutest.
I ❤️ the aroma of ginger! We make a ginger bug and then fermented soda from our ginger and the juice from the blackberries. So yummy!
need you in times like these...thank you
My fav way to drink ginger is to cut a thumb sized portion and put it in the kettle while the water boils. Then, use the ginger water to make tea with. You can adjust how much ginger you like after getting a taste for it!
Hi Jess , Benjamin is so sweet . I dehydrate oranges , lemons and limes . I add a slice of ginger and sometimes raw honey w/hot water . Its such a delightful drink warm or cold . I admire all you and Maya and Family do . Love and Blessing to all
Yes! Absolutely you can overwinter small ginger plants in pots in your house.
Love Miha's mobile work station, great find & idea.
Jeremiah, great idea for the mobile workshop! Glad you found good deal. I love to see kiddos happy about a cup of something healthy.
I love watching and rewatching your vids
Ginger is really good added to your second ferment of kombucha! I like ginger and lemon together =)
For the ramp some non slip rubber would work perfectly. They make this stuff that is used on boat docks and things. If you know someone in industrial conveyor belting, they can hook you up!
Just remember that sometimes you have to fake it to you make it because sometimes you just walk into the face of the Lord I think it's a wonderful thing that you can call to do this thank you for doing this God bless
My hubby keeps his shop & trailer so organized too!! He even keeps a log book on his phone when he loans out tools. Congratulations on your new book! Can’t wait to order mine
Ben is adorable xx
I understand the eye twitch! 😆 And your roses are gorgeous!
You can take the smaller plants and place in pots to continue growing inside or in the greenhouse if possible. If left in the ground long enough they will also put out some beautiful flowers
You can grind the ginger in a food processor and freeze them in ice cube trays (then transfer to a baggie) and throw into curries or tea!
Can also ferment it 😋
OMG Miah, I am a little jealous!!! MOBILE SHOP!?! That is a dream of mine! So happy for you... I have a log mill and LOVE IT!!
A fork will help pull up that ginger whole. Candied ginger is a great snack and it's good in tea. My kids love it
Very good ginger Harvest
Oh your kids..😍 They are just so precious!
Nice ginger harvest! They are nice in smoothies too, just a little piece, very healthy raw!
Watching from Australia 🥰🥰🥰 Daniel’s music is very relaxing.
We put ginger in our fresh apple juice. Lemon, and ginger juice helps open the sinuses.
I love lemon ginger tea. It is delicious and caffeine free.
Wish I could smell the ginger. You have inspired me to try it next year. Have a great weekend.
My geese act like they never get fed. They go nuts if they hear me open the front door 😂😂😂
I'm surprised you guys don't own a personal weather station yet. For me it really has given me insight into how much rain and and how much sun my plants get. They really aren't that expensive and I love being able to check the temp right at my house instead of relying on a regional weather forecast. :)
Yes you absolutely can grow it as a house plant over the winter! I do that frequently when I get ginger that sprouts over the winter
I make crystallized ginger. It’s good for cookies, cakes, sweet potatoes, just eating it, it’s so good. And of course as medicine.
I love ginger. There is a Filipino dish called "tinola", a type of chicken soup with ginger, unripe papaya and pepper leaves, its my favorite during rainy season so I think its a good recipe for winter. As for tea we have "salabat" its ginger tea sweetened with honey paired with "bibingka", a type of rice cake topped with salted egg or shredded coconut, this is staple during Christmas season in the Philippines. Stay safe Ms. Jess, Ben is such a sweetheart 😊
That sounds so good, I’m gonna try it! And Jess, yes you can stick some of those small shoots in a pot! I’ve been growing mine sprouted inside all year. Don’t worry if the first shoot dies away at some point, it will probably grow another.
That sounds delicious.
Nice ginger harvest!! 💚
YEA! for all the ginger. My favorite way to preserve is to chop/grate it into freezer trays, add some water and freeze. Then when frozen, I pop out the cubes into a plastic bag for storage in the freezer and use them in tea, soup, stews, tea, tea for colds, tea for energy, tea for quiet time, tea for getting warm. I LOVE ginger tea but also any tea that has some ginger added. I really should try drying it then grinding it for powder in pies, cakes, cookies, etc. YUM. Favorite cookie is molasses ginger cookie w/nuts. But also, with candied ginger pieces. It is also so good when you have the ick in winter - brew it up strong with honey fermented garlic and a sore throat is gone, head clear, sniffles snuffed.
I showed a friend your videos for the way you parent, co parent and how incredible you raise your children. You two are inspirational in so many ways. Thank you and bless you
You can make candied ginger slices in syrup, it's so nice with cheese and crackers, also candied stem ginger is so good in icecream and cookies and other bakes.
Love your family.
Every body needs a Benjamin. 😉♥️
Petra uses the ginger leaves to make tea also. I live at the farm with my dad who turns up the thermostat on a regular basis so when I planted ginger from petra and followed her instructions with using the grow mat dad had the house so warm it combined with the growmst heat cooked the ginger. Some ginger I had bought at Dillons grocery started sprouting after I had resigned myself to having to wait to try it itill next year and I planted it as a house plant by a east window. It likes it although it hasn't grown as fast as it would likely have grown outside. I figured if it wants to live and sprout that bad who am I to deny it.
We have a bazillion microclimates here on our own small (24 acre) hobby farm that always astounds me how plants literally right beside each other can be so differently affected by frosts here in North Idaho zone 6a. Another relaxing great video! 🌻🌿💚
Yes, you can use the leaves of ginger, I infused them in water. So wonderful and refreshing!
Ginger did real well
Jess, I can tell you you can grow ginger in the house. I did till the labordoodles tail broke it and his mouth finished it off. You have to love a puppy. Also, I have a weather machine that sits on my desk.. it is connected outside right by the garden. Never did the temps get to freezing... close... but not there. We had frost at the end of the drive but no where else. My basil is gone, long beans and loofa, squash -gone. But, get this, my tomatoes are still there!!! My peas are doing better now than they were before. I have no clue what's going on out there.. I'm just very thankful that my sage, parsley, broccoli, cabbage 'tomatoes' and brussels sprouts all look really good! I can honestly say, it's a little odd out there. The tomatoes is what got me the most.
Ben is the most adorable. Cherish it now mom. When my 28 year old son was his size, he was like a little calf.. he never left my side. He took his naps in combines and tractors... he picked strawberries with me.... we were just never apart. He got married and all that changed. Enjoy every moment of it. Now I have a granddaughter Ben's age that reminds me of Ben.. she loves the garden. Another video win!!!
Ginger harvest 🥺 I’m a redhead does that mean it officially adopted ❤️🇨🇦
Me too lol
Lolol...
Lol
You guys are awesome!
Whats caffeine?
It’s stuff that makes you go crazy!
Yeah I know that 🤣🤣🤣🤣 your kids are lovely. Sending you love from Sweden 🥰
Wonderful family
I shred my ginger and freeze it. You can put it in your recipes and tea.
Totally get the tool thing! My dad and brother would use my mechanics tools and I could never find the wrench or socket size I needed. So frustrating! I finally resorted to locking my toolboxes in the trunk of my car. With my adult son, it's my screwdrivers! When I need a phillips, all I can find are the flatheads. No phillips to be found...anywhere. And vice versa when I need a flathead... a thousand years from now, if there's an archeological dig here, they're going to wonder about all the screwdrivers they find LOL.
Ben is so cute!
Jess, try a couple of teaspoons of chopped fresh ginger in your smoothies. It is awesome, especially with blueberries.
Dice the excess ginger and freeze it in a zip lock bag . Use it in ur chai when u make it next time it’s so good
Sliced thinly and freeze dried ginger......you can make your own ginger powder.
I'm going on my second year of planting ginger that came from the store that sprouted. I grow it inside in the winter and take it outside when it gets warm out and keep it like a house plant. The greenery smells so good and it grows fine inside. Tops die back and I get the ginger roots out in the spring. I keep some out for the pantry and replant some.
Ginger for fall baking 😍 ginger bread cake with some very finely diced fresh ginger is always tasty, you could try candying it too
Miah likes to show up. That sort of says it all from what I can see.
