Jerry’s whole “thank you, glad you like content, but you’re wrong” comment cracked me up! 😂👊🏾
Way to break down his misconception with truth. Love it. 🥰
Jerry is the cutest! Y’all make a darling couple❤️. Jenny …. I love the way you give Jerry equal opportunity to speak and share even if he doesn’t take you up on it. UNLESS you get him talking about something he’s passionate about haha. Then he’s on a roll!!!! LOL. Love you guys❤❤❤. One thought on the “you aren’t a grower” comment…. If you weren’t a grower then you would just buy the plants fully grown from a wholesaler and sit it on a table and resale it to the public. That would be more of a garden center but not a grower greenhouse. You guys are DEFINITELY growers😉
Jerry is like, After all these long days of work, don't you dare say we're not growers! I love watching the production process y'all have going. It must be satisfying at the end of the day, to get so much done.
We love Jerry!! 👏👏👏 seriously love that southern sass. People need to be kind
As a grower myself I found that first comment quite rude
Agree. People have no idea the amount of work and expense that goes into these plants, even if someone else "starts" them.
Jenny & Jerry, please don’t take to heart ignorant comments. Some people just have to find a negative way to express their “superior” (not!) knowledge.
I loved the look on Jerry’s face when Jenny reads the first comment!
My husband gets rude comments on his channel also. Most times, they apologize or agree when he comments back in a respectful manner with an explanation. 😉
Rude and ignorant
That adorable laughing between you two 😂❤
That first question was bizarre; overall, I think people have different definitions of what a “grower” is. And you guys definitely do so much to nurture a plant within your production and it isn’t always easy. Keep up the great content.
Thank you
It’s great to hear you talk about “plant management.” Plant management is a skill set and over the years of gardening, I am glad to have exposed to it. Thanks for all your work.
As for the comment that you are not growers....Bless his heart. Bless it.
Jennifer thanks for the encouragement
That’s the most I’ve heard Jerry talk. You go guys! Educate, educate, educate.
I can’t wait for Spring in Georgia and continue to see what continues to grow at Creekside! Thanks
Your plant growing process is absolutely amazing! Totally impressive. I love watching your expertise in growing those tiny cuttings into beautiful plants. 💖💖
Poor Robert, I guess he has never heard of " strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel." I am truly amazed at the process of growing plants. Your channel is one of the first I begin watching, even though I am an older past farm girl, so much still to learn. Process never stops. I watch everything from sawmill, homesteading, gardening videos, that is my entertainment. I love seeing your children, and all the family working together to make your business a success. What you guys do is a wealth of knowledge, thank you for all you share to help us gardeners along. Thankful Jerry is okay.
I agree with you on this topic. I am older, but love my gardening videos, Homesteading, it’s my joy these days! ❤
glad Jerry didn't get hurt badly....a few bruises mend quickly , it's the breaks and punctures we want to avoid....happy you're still smiling
Nothing like a critical comment from someone outside your industry to straighten you out 😂😂😂
Yes. LOL
Jenny and Jerry you are an inspiration to me. Don't let nobody rain on your parade. Much love from Trinidad.🍹💐
Jenn, Jerry you are definitely GROWERS, thanks for sharing the information.
Your welcome
Oh, I’m so sorry that Jerry was injured! Also, I’m not sure why when people have questions, they don’t always know how to phrase them politely so they don’t come across as insults. 🤔
Thanks for all you do! I’m excited to see all of your new projects and more plants! 😊
I absolutely love that you started with the "y'all aren't growers" comment so Jerry could insert little hilarious tidbits of info into each question that followed to reinforce the fact that INDEED you are growers! Very fun to watch! Y'all do such a great job! Please don't worry about the ignorant keyboard warriors.
Oh golly! I'm so glad Jerry is ok. It's really comforting to know ya'll have medically trained folks on your crew. The landscape job looked really nice.
QUESTION # 1 - I am so glad you started out with Robert's question/comment! Although I thought the question was put a little harsh (that is just me) I understand his question but he needs to step back and understand that a rooted cutting, or even a seedling, is not retail ready. There is a period of time that is make or break for that plant and that time is in your hands. I have a local grower (Vite Brothers in south-western Michigan) and I see what they go thru to present acres of Proven Winner (and other brands) plants to the public. It is a gamble on your part and that is mitigated by your knowledge. It is obvious to me that your knowledge of the industry is vast and I thoroughly enjoy watching you 'GROW' those plants on !!!
Don, I love your response
Jerry ... I seriously felt your frustration... some people should take a moment .. breath and reread what they wrote and then delete it .... and on the other... OMG so sorry to hear about your accident Wow ... and I am glad that you are doing okay ... !!!
Ignorance is not dumb or stupid or in some cases rude. It simply means someone saying something without knowing. It is then important to educate by simple means to bring forward knowledge.
Jerry and Jenny, you have shown us, your viewers, how much work goes in from start to finish. Allowing people to experience what happens not only from a business side but from a family working their business.
I buy all my annuals from a family owned grower/retailer. I am never disappointed. It takes months of preparation and hard work. For us, here in my area, the season starts on Mother’s Day and ends by the end of June. For the grower/retailer it is probably all year round because once one growing season ends, the planning of next season begins almost immediately.
I hope people who question what you do, see how much it takes for you to do what you do.
Great recap. Sorry to hear about Jerry’s injury. WOW. Lucky you had the right people there. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I can’t wait to see you get started on the signature gardens. The way it sounds this might take a while to complete because of the size of the areas you want to turn into a signature garden. I’ve never really seen a signature garden so I’m very excited to be able to watch yours get started and grow! ❄️💚🙃
Me too! But I’m in this for the long haul and magic doesn’t happen overnight. Happy gardening 😁
I have sat here fore about 20 minutes just fuming over the first question. Jerry you are right. They buy a plant from the store and put it in the ground. They did not grow it. I have learned so much from watching your videos. I lived in a zone 5 for over 40 years then moved to a zone 7A. I had no idea what really grew here. I have learned from watching you two that here the sun gets to hot for some some plants so they only need morning sun and not afternoon. Certain plants need all that sun. Crepe Myrtles can grow in zone 7A. Heck I ran out and bought 7 of them. Could not grow them in zone 5. I just want to say thank you for your videos. They have helped me out so much in my garden.
I just love you two together and you have made me laugh with you today! I have really let my gardening love blossom with all the knowledge both you and Jerry give. Much thanks to you both!
Thankfully Jerry is okay. That’s happened to my husband several times and it’s ALWAYS a scare. From my experience you just to wait a few minutes to see if they really need help, like going to the hospital kind of help.❄️💚🙃
Jerry cracks me up. That guy was born one day, but it wasn't yesterday!! Such a smart whippersnapper.💚 gosh! I'd take him on my crew any day of any week.
So glad Jerry is okay! Those falls against equipment, or hitting the ground because they are so high in the air can be a total tragedy. We've had a breaks, cracks, cuts, bruises, and the whole 9 working on the family farms. NO JOY IN INJURIES!!
[2] As for Robert Nolastname, the reply to that comment is:
the basic agriculture/horticulture ladder is :
(1) Commercial Seed germination production, or Propagationist cutting production OF "STARTERS" ) ;
(2) Commercial Growers / production [like Creekside] ;
(3) Home or business gardeners,,, IN THAT ORDER for all those who do not do their own germination. A garden nursery isn't your local home depot or lowe's where they arrive already grown in the retail sizes. Growers get them to the retail size. Robert, you are trying to leave off the actual places who do, do the growing.
[3] The teamwork at Creekside is off the charts fantastic. On our family farms [farm to table 🌱🍅🍓🥕🥒🫑🥬🧄🍐🍏🍎🫒🌽🥦growers ] we are always in pairs, or couples [2 or more]. We never go into the jobs as a single person. Someone is always in a pairing, minimum. It is safer and more work effective.
[4] Can't wait to see the Signature Gardens. This will be a CLIMAX to the Creekside Ventures.
Loved the Q&A today! Like the cartoon show Bob the Builder, maybe we need a "Jerry the Grower" show as well! 🙂
I so appreciate the knowledge you share with us through your videos. Equally appreciated is the way you deal with adverse or less uninformed comments with humor. Thank you for sharing this glimpse into your business and lives!
Just have to say that you two simply are THE best! I appreciate all of your plant knowledge, your impeccable work ethic, your beautiful Christian family values, your fabulous personalities, and your willingness to share your lives with your faithful viewers. Every day with Creekside is a wonderful day! Thank you for being such excellent role models to all of us! Linda
Obviously no explanation necessary for someone so rude! Jenny you and Jerry are so awesome and I have learned so much from your videos much appreciated!
Sometimes, all you can do is laugh at people and their statements. Y’all are doing a great job!
You are exactly right! Bless their hearts 😉
Glad to hear you are okay, Jerry!
Amen Jerry ! I I see you nurture and care for a lot of plants and they grow beautiful! I hope one day I can visit your nursery!
Thank you Kathy
So glad Jerry is ok !
Thanks for your videos. I enjoy you both so much. My grandpa had glass greenhouses and I loved going in there and smelling the dirt and plants. He’s been gone a long time but memories remain.
9:12 this made my day today. ❤😂 y’all are awesome
I just love Jerry. No nonsense kind of guy. We went to our local grower here in Maine yesterday and they were just starting their pansy with the little plugs. that's how far behind we are here. so interesting seeing all the things you talk about and the huge bails of potting soil. thanks for sharing. I find everything very interesting.
You guys are excellent growers. Love you channel love your Content. Don’t let others steal your joy.
Can't tell you just how much I love your videos! Family health issues have severely impacted my ability to keep our garden railroad as beautiful (and in scale to our trains) as I'd like. Your videos keep me inspired and allow me to plan for the future. THANKS so much!
One Farmer's Market here is biased like that. "You are not growing you are just reselling." I asked, "So like these farmers are laying the eggs, or are the chickens, and they are just reselling." If someone gets dirt on their hands somewhere in the process, you are growing.
Jerry , answering some of questions and is king! 🌷🌱🌷💕
Y'all are awesome, Jerry kept making me chuckle. I am the same way, I hate when I am busting my butt and someone belittles all the hard work I have done.
Love your channel and love you both SO MUCH. It's clear that people just don't realize how much hard work is behind the scenes of getting the flowers/plants to us, the consumers. Thank you Jenny, Jerry, family and crew for all of your dedication, blood, sweat and tears in making Gardening with Creekside a success. I've learned so much from your channel and look forward to your daily videos. Glad to see that Jerry is ok - and Jenny came home with a fresh haircut that day 🤣. You all make me laugh so much. ❤ from Michigan.
Hi Jenny 🌺 you are a wonderful couple . Have anice day .🌻🌺🌻
I am so sorry for your injury Jerry. I have been battling torn muscle in my side and it is so frustrating not to be able to pick up heavy things and having to put heat and rest on it in between a few garden chores. I am amazed at all the garden jobs you all do. Since I am in MS I look forward to seeing your PW signature garden for us southerners. Hugs
So glad to hear Jerry ok, you too are so cute. Love this chat video's..
I just wanted to say thank you for all your videos. Have watched Laura for 4 years and learned so much. I am in foothills of NC and you have taught me so much more and I am thankful for you.
By the way I love your chats🙂
I love that dig Jerry! That would be me….love that sarcasm. It’s our family mantra….sometimes we just see if we can outdo the others. We have so much fun trying that. It’s just fun! We are serious when needed, but fun when it’s not.
I think there are a lot of people who don't understand all that is involved with "growing" plants. I know I didn't, until I watched your channel. I thought plants shouldn't have to cost so much. Appreciate you and your family, and other growers, showing us how much work it takes so that we can have beautiful plants. Also, I love seeing how the potting machine works. Fascinating! Thank you 🌻
You both do a wonderful job. I can’t keep hanging baskets alive and I always buy them and they are beautiful until I get them. Lol. I sometimes transplant them and do fine. I really don’t think people understand how hard it is getting plants to grow the right way. Lots of love to you both and your family. I wished I lived close by for you could teach me a lot.
Glad Jerry is ok and not seriously injured
I just love watching you.
Great Q&A! After listening to all the questions and your answers, anyone who even doubts that you are a “grower” needs to go back to the beginning and listen all over again.
Good to hear that Jerry wasn’t badly hurt. That accident could have been so much worse; punctured lung, etc. You all work so hard, obviously love what you do, and are kind enough to take the time to share your journey with all of us. Thanks so much for sharing.
So glad Jerry is okay! Thank you so much for always having such wonderful, informative content. Thanks for talking about edging too. You helped me make a decision for mine!
Lol I like how Jerry keeps it real 😂
Oh my word - we love you guys! This video is a gem♥
Fabric in beds is a demon to deal with. The previous owners of my home used landscape fabric, clear plastic, black plastic, and regular tarps with the grommets in every bed. I've been tearing that stuff out for months and have so much more to go. It's covered with organic material with seeds, grass, English ivy growing on top of it. I couldn't agree more with you, Jerry. Love your videos. Stay safe!!!!!
Some plants just do not come true from seed. Those plants need to be propagated differently say via cuttings or tissue culture. It is a simple as that. And, it is not simple to grow them - even at this stage. There is art to it - and a science. It is disappointing that some do not appreciate that
Love these videos. Fun and informative. Thank you for sharing.
Love your videos. Yes you are a grower.
I got such a kick out of Jerry’s response to the questions today. He needs his own Jeff Foxworthy style channel. He could name it “You might be a grower if….” 😂
Thank you Jenny and Jerry, you’ve answered some questions I didn’t even realize I had. ❄️💚🙃
Growers come at all plant stages. What a weird question and viewer comment . Creekside doesn't breed or propagate but they certainly are a grow nursery. Buying stock in and growing it out is DEFINITELY growing...and not easy. Love you Jerry & Jenny! Keep on doing a beautiful job growing and selling your plants and I hope your nursery continues to grow leaps and bounds!
Thanks for the encouragement and watching our videos
@@GardeningwithCreekside ya’all are a blessing! Keep on being beautiful! God bless!
Did anyone count how many times Jerry said, "Because we GROW our plants"? Hilarious!
Great videos, love learning about what goes on behind the scenes. It definitely makes me willing to spend more when I know what goes into a product.
You guys are so real and I just love you 😃
Love all your knowledge and growing plants!
I like so many others are so glad You are ok Jerry ! Thank God !!!
It's that time of the year for you "grower's " where things are hopping and poor Jerry looks tired....you can see it in his eye's and he's kinda giddy lol....but as Jenny always says " don't fret my pet " Jerry will get his second wind and the twinkle will return to his eyes....it's like any kind of seasonal job ( I know Creekside is year round for J&J , but the retail part takes a short break ) , and getting back into the swing of things takes a minute ....you are both doing a fabulous job getting everything set up for your customers....keep up the good work
❤ I love your videos. They are so informative and I’ve learned so much about my home garden. You all are amazing, I wish I could come and learn from you both.
I am so excited about the signature garden. CSG is on my bucket list for a visit and this is even more motivation for me. Busy with my little granddaughter right now but when she is in school I’ll be coming for a visit some April.
Yall are definitely growers and I enjoy all the video's and education shared . I have learned alot watching yall video's...
You two are so awesome! I'm so glad Jerry is okay, I'm recovering from a broken rib from a fall and wouldn't wish it on anyone. Love your channel & and I'm so glad I found ya'll! Have a great spring! 🩷🌷
Wonderful q&a 🥰 I’m looking forward to seeing all the new changes 🥰🥰
You folks are great and I have to say that your answer to Robert was a polite and knowledgeable response. It demonstrates such excellent professional behaviour. Lord knows how I would have responded - but it would not have been for family viewing! Keep rockin' guys and God bless you!
You both are very enjoyable!❤ Great video content! Thank you!😊
You’re both adorable, I love your channel and I’ve learned soooo much from you. Thank you !🌷
Y'all crack me up . Go Jerry! 😂
I am sorry Jerry had an accident scare but happy to see his full recovery.
As always....very inspiring video!
“You can drown that plant that you repot” had me rolling! Y’all are gonna laugh every time you have to use that word thanks to Robert🤣 You are definitely GROWERS. I love that crochet was mentioned at the end😍 I only teach tutorials on my channel, I do not sell. I thought for sure the hat was from Bknits or Lisa, I love their instagrams!🌱🧶💚
Proven Winners is so smart expanding their “Signature Garden” concept outside of Mackinaw Island. Looking forward to learning more about this from you.
I don't know why some people have to be so contentious. You aren't trying to deceive anyone. You are sweet and kind and honest. You were much more gracious than I could have been to such rudeness.
So glad Jerry is ok! You two are just to cute! I ordered a large order of annuals from PW cant to get started planting have to wait April! We have a lot of Amish communities the one iwent tothis week are growers sellers i was surprised how many they are growing very exciting! Thank you both for all your videos!
I love you guys and your content. Could you ever give us a video explaining all the steps required for maintaining those baskets you planted. I want to make baskets but I don’t understand how often and how much fertilizer and how to pinch back if necessary.
It is fascinating to see how it all works. You have done a tremendous job of improving your business on every level, and all while keeping your sense of humor. You have such quality products, from amendments to pots to plants. It is just wonderful from a gardener’s perspective to get all the information and your recommendations, even if we live far from you. And, speaking of which, you almost seem to make it worth my while to take a ride from Williamsburg, VA to Creekside. Owning your own business is extremely difficult from many perspectives, and it is heartwarming to see you succeeding. Much good luck from a fellow entrepreneur who has experienced to ups and downs of self ownership.
That first comment is accusation I know first hand that they are the grower. From the most favorite nephew in the world 😄
Thank you Logan!
I keep commenting, sorry, but Jerry is referring to the fine art of gardening, and you mention that Jerry has the gift. Had to say that you all are extremely lucky to have that gift. Bless him.
I'm sure a hundred plus plus more people are very glad that you repot those plant Jerry. 😁😁😁😁😁😁 Oh goodness!!!!
Thanks for the videos. I enjoy them because of the information you share and the fact that you are gardening in a similar climate like mine...zone 8b. So glad Jerry is ok. AND, you go Jerry. I love the fact that you are honest and share your knowledge with people who do not know what they are talking about....aka your not a grower On a different note. I order plants from Creekside a few years ago when you were shipping. Those were some of the best plants I have ever purchased and grown. Even after they went through the shipping. Just a great testament and validation of what a great job Jerry does in growing your product.
I thought the conveyor belt time looked so fun, I told my husband we should move to Dallas NC so I can volunteer to help in this season and get paid in a couple baby plants to grow. They're so cute and I love the productivity I feel after such a routine task. Totally my jam! Even if I received nothing tangible, the community building and experience is worth it! 💞
LoL that first comment, that's don't work that way, my friend have small business, seasonal maintaining pots and landscape for few businesses and he grow plants he use and sell surplus, he import his baby plants from Italy, nobody grow plants from seeds, like Jerry said, that's the first line in whole of line of plant production. Please don't take those rude comments to your heart.
Always learn stuff watching you! I didn’t know about proven winners developing strong shrubs by cutting them back and growing longer before they are even sold. Also, congrats on growing a signature garden:)
Gracious as always addressing that first comment.
Yes if you are nurturing a plant at any stage you are growing it. If you aren't giving a plant everything it needs it's dieing. 😳 Love that you tackled that one.
Thanks for the info. 👍
Thanks for sharing. Pat in NC
I can relate….as a retired nurse, I had no issues helping others but I hated once I became the patient. That isn’t my cup of tea. But unfortunately I am now on the reverse side of the table now. I’m glad you didn’t puncture a lung. That’s not fun! Glad you are ok ❤️
6:19 I love y’all!!
