- I'm back! I've been away at the most incredible regenerative farming training course and I can't believe how much has changed at the garden whilst I was away. Join me as I explore the weekly harvests, sowings, and ever changing seasons of the garden.

I did the trick of tying down the vertical branches on my 3 year old apple and had spectacular results. The tree went from producing 4 apples per season to 20! Fruit trees are definitely more likely to fruit on more horizontal branches and the tree shape is beautiful.
Its amazing to me hat you've been hanging out with Richard Perkins. Ive enjoyed his TH-cam videos gor a long time now, as well as yours. Everyone learning from each other all over the world. Such a global school we have now, so much opportunity for learning!
Malabar spinach grows crazy. Almost like you can stand there and see it growing. It's in a raised bed my neighbor planted. When she quit gardening she pulled the plants out. I was watering all the beds and up comes the malabar after 3 months. I cared for it. When it flowered and went to seed, I pulled all of them out. Still watering, up comes the malabar again after about 4 months. It puts out these vines that can be 10 feet long. When I harvest it, it looks like I have a Christmas wreath hanging on my arm. It's good raw in salads, sandwiches, stir fry. Not to good if steamed. Gets a bit slimy. I cut a branch off and threw it in the next empty bed and it rooted on its own. Now have 2 beds.
I can't express how glad I am to have found your program. I wish you all the best in your learning lessons and going forward with Vineyard.
Huw Richards and Richard Perkins got together, it's like a dream come true. I can't wait to find out what you're planning :)
Color Color Color I'm proud of you diversifying for beauty's sake.
The people at the nearby award winning vineyard at Lampeter Velfrey might be worth a chat
Great that you got to go on the training at Henbant.... we've just been assigned a mentor from Farming Connect to help us get our agroforestry plans finalised ready for the planting season ahead.... exciting! I'm just putting some of your chicken composting plans into action from your book as well, to process my horse manure! Cheers
Your plans sound wonderful. Looking forward to following along. Exciting manure!!!!
Your garden looks lovely beautiful and colorful! Mine in 115-118 degrees heat 🔥 no drops of rain( desert) everyone are all tossed and fried lol
Thank you 🙏🏼
Oh! Wow. Beautiful 🙂
Beards looking good my guy 👍🏻
great show, grapes go dormant at certain times of the year, winter here (Australia) no growth til the weather warms up, good luck with yours; i enjoy seeing what you do from week to week from season to season, weeds like your thistle & dandelions i love leaving them as they help my soil here & are also good food source for the chooks; have been watching Danu's Irish Herb Garden along with you for new ideas along with my own backyard growers 'Self Sufficient Me' who is extremely practical & has changed my views on raised garden beds (though a killer to get filled) as i'm getting older.
your flowers look amazing & wish mine would self seed as easily
thanx for sharing your amazing gardens with us
Thank you. So gorgeous.
Wow.. Given me a few ideas.. Though here in Florence (and rest of Italy) we are going through a heatwave with temperatures hitting 39+°c.
Good luck with those high temperatures 💚
Your videos are great 💯
cool!
Really enjoyed that ..😊
Great to see a range of emotions on your return to the garden after being away for 10 days ....from firstly concern to enthusiasm and laughter 😀👍
Great enthusiasm for nature
Thanks
Great camera work as usual 💯👍
Nice catch up and some really exciting plans. Just be careful with the horse manure! Mae sure it is well rotted otherwise you will just be planting weeds for the next 7 years. I talk from bitter experience.
good vid as always, I didnt see a link to the book for training fruit trees that you mentioned, self pruning is of great interest to me

Hello Huw, if you are planning a permaculture orchard PLEASE check out Stefan Sobkowiak, an extremely knowledgeable teacher and permaculture orchard owner here in Québec. He has been sharing what he has learned from experience for many years - on TH-cam and in class. He is a wonderful resource and I have no doubt you would enjoy his teaching style.
I've been following him too. Great guy plenty of practical ideas.. So is David the good channel.. Got me into trying landrace gardening
You mentioned carrot pesto. Interesting. Could you share a recipe please? Also what do you serve it on?
You can swap in carrot tops for the basil. You can swap in other nuts for the pine nuts. Pesto is made with herby greens and nuts, but not limited to basil and pine nuts.
My mother used to make carrot top tempura. It’s delicious!
Mix cake flour, an egg, ice cold water and salt into a crepe like batter (it should be thinner than pancake batter). Dip the carrot tops on the batter and deep fry. Eat with soy sauce or salt.
You can use cauliflower leaves too. For the cauliflower florets I would recommend a thicker batter. (Just add more flour)
Oooo. Huw. Would be interesting to see how you harvest your leek seeds. My leek seed flowers keeps throwing off baby leeks from the head before the flower has dried. 🤦🏼♀️☹️🤔

Hiiii✨

Around 5:30 - is this a newer hybrid of lupine? I thought they were pretty much all toxic, unless the beans were put through some rigorous de-bittering.
Can you please take a picture of your IBC tank to see how you have it set-up. I would really appreciate it. Also are your 4x4 in the ground or on top of the ground?
Would it be possible to set up a smaller fan for the buckwheat?
I’ve found some of the container soil being sold here has root fly. Kind of disappointing.
How did you keep your seedlings watered while you were away?
I thought the 'two foot off the ground so carrot fly can't get them' thing was a myth?
It’s actually true. My carrots got ruined every year by the carrot fly until I started growing them in buckets on the roof. Now I get good carrots!
@@fionagrows1848 on the roof of what? Your house? That would keep everything off except birds😂
@@thestorytelleruk It’s only a flat roof extension, but I do need the ladder. It’s called extreme gardening 😉😂
I'm leaving mine for three weeks and I'm scared lol.
Do you still sell your seed trays overseas? I live in America and seemed to be having a problem but it could just be me. The Containerwise website also doesn't list anything except shipping in the UK.
Huwj, nah. That's not even close to funny...but the garden looks great.
Make pesto with carrot leaves?
Who's niel
How cruel you are,we didn't get a chance to meet those "weeds" you've crushed with no mercy...
Love the weed crush! It goes with potato beetle elimination in all its forms lol
Aren't all Welshmen required by law to grow leeks, anyway? I'm asking for a friend...
... and on top of that the man talks about nasturtium dangling out of the secret garden and the shows nothing, not even a glimpse of that garden!
So really everyone's going to do all the hard work for you that's not a gardener to me there's no wonder you've got all that space then you just pick the shit
Even though that sounds quite the life... I can assure you that is not the case
@@HuwRichardsis it school holidays? You seem to have attracted a slightly different comment crowd today...😅
@@cyclingsfatsuma9808😂
Rude!
Please could the real Dr. Huw identify them(feel free to insert your preferred pronoun here)self?
Sorry?
@@HuwRichards exactly.
