Your most endearing quality is that you and kristi are both so relatable, you chat like your talking with mates, it’s not over the top, I don’t feel like I’m having products pushed on me your both just sharing your way of life ❤️
I love the way Zack explains what he’s doing. Very relatable & honestly comforting. You both have proven how genuine you are & I think that’s why so many people love you!
Zack honey, you did great. Don't beat yourself up! The more you talk to us the more at ease you will become. I am so enjoying these, ya'll are living my dream life.
Zack… you are much better at this than you realise…🤗because your talking on our level, your taking us on the journey with you and Kristi, so relax and just keep doing what your doing. Plus Kristi has faith in you x I could easily watch seed planting all day it’s so relaxing add you voice and I’m a happy bunny. Take care of each other xx x x
Becky at Acre Homestead lives in WA, so she's probably full of local know-how. I have learned a ton from her videos. She does gardening, food preservation, and baking/cooking. 10/10 recommend.
Genuinely appreciate how you guys don't add all that over-the-top voices and expressions when talking to the camera... it's like sitting down and learning from friends who genuinely want to teach you and know that you're interested because you chose to listen :)
“Why am I apologizing? I’m going to edit that out.” 😂 that cracked me up for some reason. P.S. give yourself some grace and don’t beat yourself up. Fun video!
Try not to get frustrated with yourself. You did a great job! Plus, there's always editing if need be. You got your points across and it felt like a conversation with a friend. Can't wait to see how things grow and what's next!
I first landed on Kristi's channels a couple of years back, don't wear make up, don't want to wear make up but loved her honest conversions and always loved the ending with the bloopers !! That music today, I had to wait and stick around ....lol awesome, anyway I'm a Gardner, mostly veg , and I what can say is , not every year is the same , weather plays a big part and every year I look back at my season and plan for the following what worked, didn't work and what I'd change for next growing season. It takes time to build that confidence, you guys are doing a wonderful job, have fun with growing , and the bonus is the food . I'm loving your willingness to try, explore and grow , from an nz girl who didn't garden and now does (5 yrs in and still trying to figure it out) !!;
Be a tightwad in the garden. Little bit of bought seed dirt. Little bit of force packing ground. Many videos show no force used transplanting.except bracias. They like being transplanted and more packed down.
As someone who wants to grow their own food and follows big and already established homesteaders it's really refreshing to find creators that are also still at the beginning of their growing journey. It eases my own fear of failure to see that it's hard and challenging but still really rewarding in the end.
It’s a constant learning process! Also don’t forget Most bigger homesteads started small too and if you go back on their channels you can usually see how they started and the mistakes they’ve made
Zack bloopers are the best because they are us bloopers. It's weird talking to a camera but I thought you did great. And I didn't know you were supposed to start onions out in a smaller area and then transfer them to the ground. Your local home depot or local nursery might have a community board or info for other folks to talk to about methods and whatnot in your area.
as a fellow adhder, your videos are just right for my attention span and way of learning. i’m attempting my first veggie garden this year and learning from fellow neurodivergent folks is exactly what i was missing throughout my public school days. 💙
You can do it! Gardening isn’t hard I think we tend to get in our own way a lot and overthink it. Plants want to live so as long as you do the bare minimum you’ll get something for your effort
I’m terrible about remembering things too! Something that helps me keep track of things is setting alarms in my phone or adding it as an event on my phone calendar.
Just sat down, picked this video over my makeup videos to watch lol. Gardening is my first love, you’re doing great! Love seeing the outtakes at the end, it’s zachs turn now lol.
My mom passed away when I was 12 and it's her birthday today. Your videos are always so soothing to me. Thank you guys for making videos and just being yourselves.♡
Zack you are a pro! Love seeing you so involved. I can tell the more comfortable you are gonna get the more we will be cracking up. You and Kristi have great sense of humor
💗 Love it all. Don't worry about thinking that you're going off topic or talking too much - we love to hear it all. It's real, and that's so good! Love you guys! 💗
In my area there is a compost dump of trees and plants from from the parks dept that compost and mulch can be taken from. It may not be treated but its free. Something for people to look into
That soil tray / storage looks so handy. Definitely something I'm going to keep in mind for when we start our own garden. Also agree that having a old school thermometer just makes more sense. I'm sure you can find good looking ones on Etsy, they don't have to look old style
if i know i need to do something at a specific time, I immediately save it to my phone and my phone tells me when I have to do something or I WILL forget it. Especially as I get older. That's my pro tip on forgetting stuff. Or write it on a note someplace where I look every day like the coffee mugs or the fridge door or the dash of my car. i have literally left myself a post it saying get gas, because i dont look at the fuel gouge but i'll look at a bright pink note.
My mom had great success with raspberries, radishes, and carrots in WA before we first moved to TX. Every year she made jams and jellies from just 2 rows of raspberries. Extras from your harvests are pretty easy to can! Veggies like green beans and asparagus, you just blanch them, then fill your mason jar. Lots of simple recipes for canning. Ball will most likely have the best resources for recipes. You can also sell what your family can't consume to restock for your next season. Permits might not be required if you're not producing a certain amount to sell. Local government offices (Ag office) should have that info or point you in the right direction.
I’ve been watching Kristy for years, but love watching this channel as well! Don’t be so hard on yourself, you’re doing fine. You talk and describe things well!
It’s so genuine. ❤ Love this channel. I recently bought a small house In city limits 😑. The backyard is huge and plan on building raised beds and gating an area to start my own self sustainable garden. We’re all learning together here. 💯 and Zack I can relate to the adhd. SHIT HAPPENS 😂😅
I use to work for the USDA Farm Service Agency, and one thing we would recommend to new homesteaders is to look into the local agricultural colleges and their extension programs. The one in my state that was super popular was Clemson Extension (SC) and they would do a ton of workshops and whatnot to talk about soil health, science of food, equipment details, etc. Even though I am not a farmer/gardener, I found a lot of the workshops fascinating and considered taking a few just so I could learn more about the farmers I was serving in my community. Not all the workshops were for homestead level, but there were a bunch that was and even a few of my clients would just email the local extension agent for general questions. Just something to consider :)
I’m sure you already do, but Reddit is a great place to ask questions and talk to people about gardening! The amount of times I’ve asked a question about one of my plants and somebody comes to the rescue to tell me exactly what’s up, is crazy!
I’m going to try and start growing vegetables for the first time this year and I appreciate the inspiration and knowledge. ( I didn’t even know the planting info is on the seed packet, I thought you all just knew this stuff 🤦🏻♀️) Thank you for taking us along.
You did great! Not in your area, however for tips and tricks on seed starting, seed saving and such, Homestead Heart is a great resource. Also for preserving the harvest she is amazing. She walks you thru step by step. Another great gardener and COOK is Whippoorrwill Holler. I have been canning for 35 years and I find some of the younger canners can go "rouge" and I don't think you want that for yourself or your child. Friendly tip, when watering seeds, use mist instead of the shower feature on hose. Ask me how I know this? LOLOL Hollis and Nancy have great videos. They do from seed to harvest on items. You say you don't know what you are doing, but your garden last year was beautiful, and I learned how to build a worm bin from the 2 of YOU!!!! You guys are doing GREAT!
It' so awesome how knowledgeable you are .. I truly couldn't have been less interested in gardening until I started watching you guys do yours over the last few years. My grandma had a beautiful garden when I was growing up, and id love to carry on that legacy for her someday now, simply because of being inspired by you guys. What wonderful, beautiful work you both are putting in.
You and Kristi have definitely made me want to start planting my own food garden. With the price of food, and inflation, I feel like it’s more important than ever to try and grow my own fruits and veggies, and be less dependant on grocery stores.
The last 3 minutes are GOLD! lol!! You are getting so much better being in front of the camera Zack. I just moved some of my asparagus plants yesterday because I had them scattered through my garden and I wanted them all in one big raised bed. I have extra if you would like me to send them to you. They are about 5 years old and very healthy. I pick my asparagus straight from the garden and eat it fresh, it is so good! Gardening is so much hard work and a lot of trial and error, mostly error on my part. But my parents have always had a big garden and I learn so much from them and youtube. Ya'll are doing amazing and making important memories and life lessons for your son.
Nicole from @FlowerHillFarm is amazing. she does a cut flower garden every year to sell at farmers markets, and this year she just purchased her local nursery so she is renovating that now!
Can’t wait to follow this journey!! I’m also an out of sight out of mind type of person. Just remember how these seeds propagate in the “wild.” Usually when we soak the seeds or stratify or chit them, we’re simulating a season. And Mother Nature is not perfect. The seeds fall off the plants and sit on the ground getting soaked and dried out multiple times. They’re very resilient and I’m sure you’re going to be swimming in plants!
Don’t beat yourself up so much, Zack! Your videos are always great. No need to overthink it. You have a great way of explaining things (even if you feel like you’re “rambling”) lol
Please stop beating yourself up about being on camera. I learned a lot from you and love watching you do something you’re truly passionate about. To me the trial and error of a project is what you learn on the way!
Oh my goodness, this is the 1st video I've seen on this channel, loving it. He sounds like a friend of mine lol 😆 "you do it into a tray obviously" shoulder shrug and double blink specifically 😂 Then reminded me of myself with the rambling, forgetting words, getting way off subject and not watching a video about how to do something, then complain if it doesnt work out properly😆 I'm rambling.... yeaaahh....I'm adhd too 🙃 Great vid, thanks for sharing.
I loved every dang second of this! It was fun to see Zach talking to the camera and I can relate to forgetting after having kids. I also learned a bit! Here's to wishing your seeds a full and healthy rooting lol!
I’m sure you two are familiar with YT Simple living Alaska - Ariel has a full playlist starting from PNW of no till gardening. Her and Eric seem super open to help others.
@@sweetlifeofzackkristi9574 - I just watched your other video and I know there is someone they used in Oregon for seeds. Also, M.I Gardner here on Yt. 💕
I have been gardening for a very long time and I have never had great luck growing onions! I have tried a number of methods. Then I just gave up but I'm going to try again this spring. We use onions a lot and I would love to get a good harvest. Love this content!
I feel inspired to start gardening again. You and Kristi are so comforting to watch whether here or on her rbk channel. Thanks for sharing parts of your journey with the internet! Yall are awesome.
The Beginner’s Garden! Jill has a TH-cam channel by the same name but I listen to her podcasts. She is down to earth and goes through everything: garden planning (she also has a course) seed selection, raised beds, in ground planting, soil amendments, even sometimes recipe suggestions and preservation
Another favorite of mine is Mark over at Self Sufficient Me. He's down in Australia, so he can plant things we can't, but I've still learned so much from his videos. They feel like an uncle joking around while teaching you stuff. 🥰
I'm excited to see how they grow. I think it's cool that we get to learn along with you guys on gardening and home projects. Zack you do a great job in front of camera. It's perfectly imperfect and that's what's so endearing & relatable about you and Kristi. 💕
I’m going through the same journey, a lot of learning and patience with yourself. We are looking for a home with acreage, so in the meantime, I’m researching permaculture, food that grows in my zone and practicing by doing a simple raised bed garden temporarily. From the words of Jess at Roots and Refuge Farm, turn your waiting room into your classroom! Try looking at Joel Salatin for permaculture design/regenerative agriculture along with Justin Rhodes, awesome ideas that are a whole new level of homesteading! Can’t wait to see the beautiful garden this summer!
Your most endearing quality is that you and kristi are both so relatable, you chat like your talking with mates, it’s not over the top, I don’t feel like I’m having products pushed on me your both just sharing your way of life ❤️
You're doing great, Zack! I really could not talk to a camera. In fact, I can't look at a camera!
@@erikalouwrens3992 don't need to face camera. Others post videos without being on camera. Just turn away from it and show what you're talking about.
I'm so glad Zack is taking a more prominent role in videos. I adore Kristi don't get me wrong, but seeing Zack grow in confidence is awesome
I love the way Zack explains what he’s doing. Very relatable & honestly comforting. You both have proven how genuine you are & I think that’s why so many people love you!
Very much this!
Zack honey, you did great. Don't beat yourself up! The more you talk to us the more at ease you will become. I am so enjoying these, ya'll are living my dream life.
The suspense will actually kill me. Can't wait to see the spring/summer garden.
Lol @darian. Get a pot and grow something, already ! ! Your life is precious as all and anyone's.
I love watching Zack. He’s so relatable. Keep it up. Your doing amazing! 😊
Thank you! Will do!
I love the little soil bin built into your countertop! That’s so convenient!
Always thought Zack had a “podcast voice” so it’s nice to see some long form content with tips and tricks I like to tell myself I’ll need someday 🙏🏼
Wow thanks! Lol I don’t hear it but that’s very nice of you 🙏🏻
I agree, I like listening to his commentary!
The outtakes are hilarious 😂 😃 😄
I agree!
@Coff what a name. I can't even type it! I prayed you would get your place to need this stuff.
Zack… you are much better at this than you realise…🤗because your talking on our level, your taking us on the journey with you and Kristi, so relax and just keep doing what your doing. Plus Kristi has faith in you x
I could easily watch seed planting all day it’s so relaxing add you voice and I’m a happy bunny.
Take care of each other xx x x
These videos are so relaxing. My adhd mind is quiet.
Becky at Acre Homestead lives in WA, so she's probably full of local know-how. I have learned a ton from her videos. She does gardening, food preservation, and baking/cooking. 10/10 recommend.
Brb I have to go stalk like 100 of her videos now, she looks so nice! ❤️
I've been a loyal follower of Becky's for well over a year now and she's amazing! 🥰 100% recommend! 😍🙏🏻🌻
Becky is awesome!!! I have followed her for about 2 years and she is very knowledgeable and sweet. And she puts out a video every other day.
Becky is amazing!
Mike Kincaid is also great on here too! He's based in WA and does a lot of videos about propagation he's awesome
This was so satisfying and calming to watch ❤
Genuinely appreciate how you guys don't add all that over-the-top voices and expressions when talking to the camera... it's like sitting down and learning from friends who genuinely want to teach you and know that you're interested because you chose to listen :)

Zack is perfectly adorable, Kristi 🥺🥺🥺🥺 I love his humor throughout and he explains things so well!!! He did an awesome job !!!! Love u both sm
OK yeah, that soil blockers super cool! Do a butterfly garden. The baby would love seeing them.
Im guessing the problem with sprouted seeds was dirt packed in too much
Be a tightwad in the garden. Little bit of bought seed dirt. Little bit of force packing ground. Many videos show no force used transplanting.except bracias. They like being transplanted and more packed down.
‘I’m kind of just winging it and then I’m gonna complain if it doesn’t work’ 😂😂 my life’s moto.

@@sweetlifeofzackkristi9574 i can handle the bare minimum! 😆 appreciate y’all!
Zack is doing great talking to the camera, love these peaceful videos. Love seeing what you're up to with the garden.

Haha! 🙏🏻 thank you! I’m trying! 😂
You did great Zack! 😊 the realness is why I keep coming back. More of this and less “polished” content is what I appreciate and want to watch!

Blessings to you as you rest in the memories.

I use to work for the USDA Farm Service Agency, and one thing we would recommend to new homesteaders is to look into the local agricultural colleges and their extension programs.

Very good advice we’ll have to look into the ones in Washington that offer programs
Those places here are about clueless. I read a lot. And ask questions. They never did answer me.
Zack, you are doing a great Job. I love this channel and your content. Thx for sharing your life and experience with us.
Jess from For Roots and Refuge farm would be an excellent source if you’re not already following them!
Happy gardening! I can't wait to see you guys grow as gardeners this year.
Us too! Thank you
ooh so excited to hear you're exploring permaculture!
Permaculture for me too!
I’m sure you already do, but Reddit is a great place to ask questions and talk to people about gardening! The amount of times I’ve asked a question about one of my plants and somebody comes to the rescue to tell me exactly what’s up, is crazy!

Thank you both for being just like the rest of us. I’m trying to figure things out as I go too. 😂
The Beginner’s Garden! Jill has a TH-cam channel by the same name but I listen to her podcasts. She is down to earth and goes through everything: garden planning (she also has a course) seed selection, raised beds, in ground planting, soil amendments, even sometimes recipe suggestions and preservation
Such a lovely and chill video, thank you for sharing!
These videos make me want to move into the forest
Another favorite of mine is Mark over at Self Sufficient Me. He's down in Australia, so he can plant things we can't, but I've still learned so much from his videos. They feel like an uncle joking around while teaching you stuff. 🥰
We LOVE marks channel! One of our favorites that we’ve learned a ton from.
I'm excited to see how they grow. I think it's cool that we get to learn along with you guys on gardening and home projects. Zack you do a great job in front of camera. It's perfectly imperfect and that's what's so endearing & relatable about you and Kristi. 💕
Y'all are making me really want to quit my job, but some land and homestead.
The Elliot Homestead is a channel I love watching for gardening and cooking both, and I believe they are also based in WA!
"Why am I apologising, I'm gonna edit that out, ugh!"
~Edits it in~
😂❤️
With the sticks, you can staple the packet to your sticks also. that is what my gramps did.
Very smart!
@@sweetlifeofzackkristi9574, He did the gardens at the Vets home in MN.
I’m going through the same journey, a lot of learning and patience with yourself. We are looking for a home with acreage, so in the meantime, I’m researching permaculture, food that grows in my zone and practicing by doing a simple raised bed garden temporarily. From the words of Jess at Roots and Refuge Farm, turn your waiting room into your classroom! Try looking at Joel Salatin for permaculture design/regenerative agriculture along with Justin Rhodes, awesome ideas that are a whole new level of homesteading! Can’t wait to see the beautiful garden this summer!
