1st frost is so beautiful. Don’t mourn it, celebrate the frost. Time to put Mother Earth to bed. Nature has, so should we.🎉
Yes, the animals always get their winter coat by the time it's needed. And I cackled outloud thinking to myself....I'm sure glad we as humans don't get super hairy before a frost hahahaha
😂😂
It only seems weird because it doesn’t happen.
But if it did, we’d think the hairiest people were the HOTTEST. 🔥
It would be the real life version of Teen Wolf. 😂
😂 I totally agree on skipping a winter coat.
Lol made me think of no shave november 😂
We get hairy after the frost because we don’t shave till spring. Lol
Maybe those of us in this region should call this the year of getting caught off guard. I had a different phrase in mind but it wasn’t suitable for everyone 😂. Lots of learning right there with y’all this year holy moly.
Christmas Merch ... "It's Gonna be Mush" with beautiful frozen holy basil, pumpkins, and elephant ear.
It was triple digits last week. Last night, super cold, gusty wind started. It didn't just sneak up on me, it jumped out of a dark alley and clubbed me over the head
The way that you worded that was so perfect! It has me laughing so hard! I love how you articulated that!
We were expecting a freeze last night in zone 6A Central Idaho but it did not happen! Freeze dates are definitely approximate!
The overflowing wealth and beauty of your farm. Magical. Thank you for sharing.
It makes me pray more often for those in Western North Carolina and East Tennessee 😢
I'm sorry the frost snuck up on you, but what a magical video...really beautiful.
Our first frost in North Central Washington was also a month early a month ago!! The weather has continued to surprise us in so many areas, as you well know with what happened with Helene in your area and others west of you.. It's God's plan and you will find your peace with it all, Jess! You always do!
"it's gonna be mush" that made me laugh!.
"welcome to my mushy garden" 😂
JESS❤, YOU'VE INSPIRED ME.😀 I NOW HAVE GOATS. 2 KIDDING IN FEBRUARY AS WELL.🎉🎉
Bless you back!!!
Thank you for sharing your wonderful life. We got down to 34° last night here in So. Idaho. I covered the potatoes so I could harvest them today. Garlic is going in the ground today. I have a ton of green tomatoes I'm hoping to ripen in the house. My 8yo Mainecoon has put his winter coat on so he's very toasty. Bless you and your family.
I love the poetry you manage to relay in your shots for the videos!
It's amazing to me that you got a frost in the south before I got one in Pennsylvania! Granted, I do live in a lovely little microclimate at the top of a hollow in a mountain, so many people around me got a frost but we stay a couple of degrees warmer and it's enough to extend my season at each end by approximately 2 weeks. Yay!
Here's hoping you can salvage a bunch of basil.
I am also in PA and thought the same thing!
Colorado here but same!
"They don't need the forecast to tell them what to do." I love love love this! I grew up learning about how to watch nature, animals and so on to know what would/could happen with the weather and I'll be darn if those little shifts aren't right 99% of the time! This year I noticed in my own garden that baby pine cones were falling about a month early and sure enough a lot of gardeners and homesteaders seem to be having an early frost or fall.
We just had our first frost/freeze (16th) but ours is right on schedule for NW Ohio! Sad but beautiful... depressing but encouraging... another season of blessings... now to finish the harvesting and get ready for next year! Yay!🌻🐛🌿💚🥰💕👵
Thank you honey. Very inspirational ❤
I'm LOVING your hair!! ❤
Beautiful frost covered farm
Wow, one hit after another. Praying for you. 😢 I can hear the discouragement in your voice. 🙏 ❤
Peaceful.
Same. I had 27°F yesterday morning, 32° this morning; weather forecast said mid-30's. My basil is toast. 2024 has been a weird year...
"The time frost snuck up on me" that is a good title for a poem or a book chapter.
I always take an early frost as God's gentle suggestion to start wrapping up bc I'm going to need to be a little more rested going into winter season.
Amen ❤
as soon as the video started I said "nooo her garden froze😩"
Feeling for you and all the ones who are going to miss your Goodness of Gifts! Now Mush!!
Our first frost in North Central Washington was also a month early a month ago!! The weather has continued to surprise us in so many areas, as you well know with what happened with Helene in your area and others west of you.. It's God's plan and you will find your peace with it all, Jess! You always do!
I lost my frost tender plants this week, but I'm in Iowa. Really early for you! I'm still picking strawberries though! :) This is the first year ever that I was still harvesting cucumbers in October, so I feel very blessed.
How sad but the weather will do what it does. We are getting colder at night and during the day is a lot cooler for right now. Hope your basil is ok. We shall see what my plants are doing when I get out back. Hearts and flowers coming your way. ❤️💐
Oh, yes. We all think we would have had more time…whether in the garden or in life. Beautiful morning.
Your shots of sparkling frost are beautiful! Here in Central CO we will have our first hard frost and snow this evening. Our fall has been quite warm and I am doing my final harvest today and putting frost cloth on my brassicas today. ❄️❤️
Thank you for the reminder to pay attention to my micro climates. I live in a city and my backyard is even different from the front.. Time to get to those last garden tasks as fall kicks in!
You brought New England weather home with you lol.
The frost has settled in here too. Stay warm my friend.
❤️💡🙏
I bought a temperature/humidity monitor with 3 remote sensors so I can track my own temperatures for this reason. Unfortunately, sometimes the weather forecast is off enough to kill plants. I don't have big enough yard for a full weather station but this moniitoring system works for my garden. In fact I have been changing the batteries in everything today so I'm ready for freeze season.
Your tip of watering frozen veg at 6:50 mark was mentioned in the book “Farmer Boy”. 😁 They used it to save their corn crop.
I loved the intro!
I so appreciate you as a fellow Christian and gardener. Love your videos; especially about resilience and preparedness. We are in NC and our frost here was this week. I put my green stalks in mini green houses but the rest is gone. That's okay. I love the elements of all for seasons. ❤ Praying for you. 🙏
That’s South Carolina for you lol. It will warm up and everything will be ok. I know it’s weird but it’s happened to me but like I said it warmed up and everything was fine and I still harvested
😂 Please rewatch this video when it’s February and you’re in full blown locked and loaded kidding season! 😂 Prepare yourself now to not be overwhelmed. By me people breed the smaller goats as pets to keep in the yard for property control, leaf eaters, horse companions and brush hogs. My last one is 10 years old living with my flock plus 15 year old pet pig. Everyone’s asking me to buy a few new goats, but I think after 20 years we are done caring for larger ban animals in the winter months. It was fun and if you do breed smaller they should totally be sold for pets! They’re adorable!!!😊
Me too! I wasn't ready. I covered some peppers. Hopefully will still get to harvest some as it warms back up.
you guys frosted harder than us in SW KY for sure!!!
My granny would always say “Jack Frost came a calling last night!” every time we had a good frost. I know it’s the normal cycle and a much needed one but…. Let’s all take a moment of silence and mourn the losses of our beautiful and much beloved gardens. We will miss you dearly until you come again!
I know how you feel Jess! But it’s time to rest. Our gardens for the winter spring is just around the corner!
It can also help prevent a frost from damaging your plants if you water deeply the afternoon before it frosts.
i think she knows that ;-)
The birds and berries told us winter was going to be early this year,for us that is cool temps and a lot of rain and storms, usually we don't get frost at all,certainly not before January into February..I have a feeling we could well get some by Christmas this year,there's a bite in the air.
Similar happened to me in Ohio. I had been watching the forecast it was getting right around 40 at night, so I thought I had a little time, too. The night before last, I got an alert from my weather app for a frost warning at 9:30 pm! I still had frost tender stuff out there that I wanted! So, in the dark with the flashlight from my phone, I was harvesting just a few of the most important things I wanted to keep and not risk, knowing I had to give up on the rest. It made me chuckle, honestly.
Spray it off with a hose before the sun hits it. We had a first frost south of Chicago but mostly made it ok. Had some basil leaves turn black but mostly ok. My thermometer said 29 this morning when I looked out around 7. ❤️🙏
I've been thinking the Carolina's seem like a great place. Maybe I should move. Then Helene hit NC and you have frost today. I am in Michigan. Our first frost was yesterday. LOL You still have a much warmer climate year around.
You are just so cute. I adore watching your videos. Thank you for all you do and teach us.
I can't believe you got a frost before I did!! I live in zone 5B/6A in southeastern Colorado. We don't have a temp lower than 37 in the next 14 days!! Craziness!!
Beautiful images of the frost on your farm! It's wild that you had the same first frost timing as upstate NY this year, we're a little past our typical date. I had frost cover over a few plants and you can tell which leaves were exposed because they are mush while the rest of the plant still looks great.
Which area of New York we’re from Lake George
That's awesome I'm just a little south of you.
Our first frost was just the other day.. 2 weeks later than usual.. beautiful sunrise scenes❤
❤ It’s been so dry here in NJ that I’ve had to water almost daily, but I know some plants are at the end of their season. The one thing I am excited about as it gets cooler is that the dew seems to be watering spinach seeds enough that the ones that didn’t germinate are now popping up. 😊 I pulled dandelion roots and leaves yesterday for the dehydrator and the house smelled so sweet! Ah a nice cup of dandelion tea is a pleasure for my arthritis!
It’s that kind of year. It makes you appreciate the days when things go as planned. I’m sorry for your shock. God’s got this.
Good morning!! I've never caught a video so quickly.
Yep!
I'm in NY state. We haven't had a freeze yet. Wild that you have.
Where in New York I live in Lake George
It caught me by surprise here in Alabama too.
Full moons can push it into frost. We had a frost advisory and 2 freezes according to the weather data. I picked everything and started cleaning it up, but nothing died. I don't know if we have a warm spot or if our incredibly dry soil has something to do with it.
I absolutely love the beginning of this video. Gorgeous. You got a wonderful beautiful life family and I'm so happy for you. It's exactly what I'd love to see. ❤
Our frost date is October 15th and it was right on the button. But so far so good. My garden is on an upper slope towards the southwest. I did cover my late planting of green beans in the hope of getting a nice picking from them. It's frosty at night and fairly warm during the day. So I re-cover the hoops in late afternoon while the sun is still shining on the bed of beans.
Ok but where can we get the background music? It’s Daniel’s, right? It’s sooo so lovely 😌
Living in Florida for over 20 years, when we lived in Central Florida, the fern farms during cold snaps would put water on the plants and let them freeze to protect them. Now we're not talking food greens and maybe ferns are a different leaf structure but it's what saved the plants. Millions of ferns for florists.
Wow! You got a harder freeze then we did here in Maryland! Weather is a crazy thing.
The white streak is stunning beautiful human❤❤
Happening in Georgia too...I feel you Jess❤❤❤❤
We had our first real frost last night too. But I am a month late getting it so I was waiting for it. The top layer is damaged but the underside looks fine, but we are supposed to get even colder tonight. My undercover spaces should be good for another few weeks yet. Sorry for the surprise for your morning but at least clean up will be easier now.
I love yr chats.
God's prepares our way.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen you speechless. You frosted before us in Central NY! Crazy weather!!
This is so wild! You beat us to first frost. Frost usually hits us here in Newfoundland early October and this year I still have sunflowers opening up.
I have sprayed (using a water bottle) the leaves of my "frosted" plants before the sun hit them and they had no damage.
*JUST BEAUTIFUL 🇺🇸🇧🇷*
*l LOVE J👏🏻*
Because no video is complete without Jess’s blessing !!! ❤❤❤
God thought you needed to have a little extra free time. We had some frost here in Ohio and I’m letting the flowers go. Could have moved some pots or covered but this year when it goes it goes. I’m done! lol. Bless you! From Fly , Ohio.
Oh Jess ❤ that's so crazy. We had our first frost here in Nh this week also. Ours was expected, but it's still hard to try and wrap up the garden when you don't feel ready yet.
I was also blindsided. I am up here in Ontario Canada, above the north east side of New York State, and we totally got that frost too. BAM! Normally we do get frost this time of year but a few little brushes of frost to warn us first. That was hard core -3C frost, right out of the gate. I was lucky enough to think of a final harvesting of things, a few days before just in case, so I don't have loads of stuff left out there. There's only an Italian vine bean, the really large white type, that I am not sure what I will get from those. My first time growing them too. I feel for you Jess.
As tomorrow is my birthday I’m preparing for frost, harvested Barry’s crazy cherries, amethyst cream cherries and some jalapeños today. I know I’m safe to plant from seed from my daughter’s birthday 3/19 to mine 10/19 just a tad over 200 growing days here in SW Virginia… Old man winter is creeping in.. stay warm
So incredible! I live in MAINE and our garden froze 3 days ago! Last year was 10/29 and normally it is 10/2. 4 years ago it was 9/22. To me, it ends when it ends now. I used to be very stressed, but now it gives us time to do cleanup before snow 🧡💚🍂
I've done a lot of my cleanup pulling all unripe tomatoes to put on my grow shelves in the 60 ° greenhouse to ripen. Have all my Dahlias relabeled with new labels for storage after 1st frost. Our first frost is in Nov but I check each day for any updates if there's any change. Raking up maple leaves to shred and layer each bed with them. Still have more that will be falling in the next few days.
I can't wait for the cool weather. We've had such a rough summer and it's been over 100 lately. This past week was beautiful though. Finally a taste of fall ❤❤
Same here in Suffolk, Va, near the NC border- zone 8a. It has never come this early, nor snuck up on us like this. It snuck up on the forecasters too. First warning came this morning, after the drop. I'll be looking to see if spring and summer also come early too. They seemed to this year and last.
Thanx for the warning! It was pretty chilly here in Virginia Beach this morning 😬
Wow that is surprising. I’m in zone 7a in Virginia and still haven’t had a frost yet.
Frosty Frosty!
It was 25 when I woke up here in deep Appalachian Virginia. I'm not a cold-happy girl by any means. Time to wrap my head around the consistently freezing mornings until April. Whee.
I’m your neighbor in West Virginia and just told my husband yesterday “I guess my feet will be cold till April!” Winter is rough in the mountains.
That first frost caught me to but then I’m in Ontario‼️🇨🇦
Time for rest and reflection.
Hey Jess....Farm tour of the animals, please. Now that your Garden is Mush, I would love to see more of your animals.
Especially > The babies. i.e. how much the lambs have grown / the Calf.
What about an Animal...Count (altogether) > Do you know....haha.
> How many horses/cows/geese/ducks/birds/goats/sheep/cats/dogs...it that it ? > Your Favorite / Hardest to look after etc.
Here in Alabama zone 8b we had frost forecast the past 2 nights. There has been enough wind that frost did not form in our garden. We usually get a light frost in.mid-October then it warms up for 2 to 3 more weeks. I cover for the first frost but not beyond that. Let Nature take her course.
Wow! You’re keeping up with us here in Vermont!
Yikes! You never freeze before me! I’m in SW Canada (Southern BC) - estimated frost day Oct 31 - Im staring down Wednesday night next week willing it to rise from its 1C overnight projection… looks like it’s going to be an early year but wow I never expect yours to go before mine!
It's funny, It frost for the first time yesterday were I live to, but our estimated first frost is septembre 25. (Québec) What a strange year!
It's crazy that you got a freeze in SC but here in CT we didn't. I watched this video and the last one as I'm sitting in my kitchen prepping my green tomatoes. I pulled most everything Monday because we had a forecast of 34 and I wanted to be safe. I hope that your high tunnel was safe in the end!
Interesting. On Thursday I woke up to +17. In Norway. It has never been so warm in the middle of October. I'm still waiting to plant garlic.
It’s so hard to let go! I’m still getting up early and spraying some of mine with water.
Good morning!❤
We just had our first frost this week too! ❤ Guess it's time to slow down. 🤷♀️
The first frost. Weather is unpredictable. Best to have half in and half out of the high tunnel.
Our first heavy frost was last night here in Southern KY. Right on our "average first frost" date. Usually we have another week though. My house and garden are on a little hill so garden isnt mush yet but the neighbors were so white it looked like snow. Beautiful and sad for me.
We did not have a frost yet way up here in NE Massachusetts. I was considering moving South to get a longer season.
Good Morning Jess! I plucked the last of my green tomatoes last night skipping over the herbs, and last cucumber plant and awoke this morning to the my first frost as well. Your frost appears to be a little harder than my Maryland frost.. the garden will now begin her hibernation.
We had something similar here in East Texas. It was supposed to be in the 40s and many areas went to freezing. Caught everyone off guard. And next week is supposed to be 90s again 🤦🏻♀️
I feel your pain on the frost. We got a temperature sensor just to get a more accurate temp reading. We have also learned its usually 5 to 10 degrees lower than forecasted. Last nights forecast was mid 30s I woke at 4 am to 11 degrees. We live in central Oregon in zone 6a.
