We passed by on the way to Maine from Virginia in May. Met Andrew, Grammy,aunt Becky and grandpa. Warm,friendly folks are these, and the wife said she got the nicest hanging basket she ever seen! Oh, forgot to tell you how cute your daughter is. Blessings to your family, Andrew.
Lucky you !
Thanks for stopping by!
I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed these videos….. it is truly nice to see the process by which you operate the farm and how you work together all of you to see that orders are filled and the market place is kept ready for the demand of the market not only in terms of the store there on the farm but people from around who want to give orders to you & Please take orders for them selves or maybe others… i’m just fascinated with every aspect of your farming process and even the picking which seems to be fun for all of you.😊
Andrew, this is a great time to establish date night with your daughter. I grew up in a family with 12 children it was very hard to get time along with just my Dad, … so something that got established early on was on our birthday we could ask for whatever meal we wanted and we got the cake of our choice and a present within reason (as we weren’t very well off. I learned very early on to ask for time with my father. We were very close and I would ask ham to do something with me Which he like to do such as fishing, But it was right in the middle of summer harvest and gardening planting time. I was just sure he wasn’t going to get home in time to share the night with me when just before sunset he showed up from Grandpa’s house. He had not forgotten and he told me you got everything ready? Did you you dig any night crawlers? I smiled because I showed him my collection and we headed down for the pond across from the farm house. It was just my Dad and me…Hand in Hand as we headed for heaven for my father to FISH, & For me, peace and quiet alone with my Dad,.'a when we could just talk about what I wanted and nobody else in they could NOT interrupt US❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️♥️♥️
It was my 16th birthday that we headed down to the pond and as soon as we got there Daddy wasted Wasted no time baiting my hook & Throwing it in the water so I could begin fishing while he walked around to the other side near an old dead tree looking to catch his much desired large catfish he had been fishing for for the last several years. It wasn’t long before I had a fish on my hook and I began reeling it in and then I heard my Dad say,
“Not so fast! “Just as I jerked it and suddenly I felt a hook flying into my Eye…. My father was already my hero before this fishy answer from that point on he definitely he was! XO what is he could get around to the other side of the pond where I was standing, keeping his voice very low and telling me to stay calm, I could see that he was coming near me and that he was also reaching down for his pliers which, he always carried in the loop of his outside carpenter denim pants. The other pocket on the other side he was reaching for handkerchief and keeping his voice low income he continue to say, “be still susie, don’t move and I’ll take care of this quickly!!” In the same moment, I felt his hand reaching to my hand and placing it on his shoulder and he said, quietly, “keep it right there and don’t move! No matter what! “And then he placed my other hand on his waist and I wasn’t sure if this was the Steady me or him, But he went to my eye it in the side of my cheek because by then I could feel the coldness of the blood running down my face and he said,
“ I want you to close your eyes now, and hold very still and try not to move no matter what Suzie❣️❣️”
In one swift move I felt and heard the sound of my fathers pliers tighten on the Fishhook in My eye and quickly and swiftly, The hook was out and I could feel daddies handkerchief once again why people are away yes he played pressure to the area and he said “well, that wasn’t so bad now was it?” and I said, “No Daddy!” as I shook my head and he continued to put pressure on my eyelid and kissed me on my cheek and said, “you did good! You were very brave! “…He turned and looked at the pond and said, “we can fish for just a little bit longer call and we did. 15 minutes later daddy had caught the catfish here wanna kill and I had caught a nice bowl head that was worth keeping to eat later. We walked home with our catch and daddy and I stayed out and clean them and skinned them on the back porch. Date night with my father was something I look forward to every year. It was more special the older I got and I think he enjoyed it too.!! He is gone now and I miss him terribly but I have the scar on my eyelid to remind me that wonderful time we went fishing together and I wouldn’t trade that scar for anything, nor a dad that took time to spend with his daughter alone from everyone else even if it was for just an hour making me feel special in amongst the big family❣️❣️♥️♥️😊😊
Watching this from South Africa, never missed an episode
Hello Elias.... I live in Cape Town and absolutely love this channel. Nice to see other South Africans here. X

Feeding people, you guys are the real hero’s!
Amen! Work Smart not Harder always remember that
How’s that a hero ? It devalues real hero’s who risk there lives !
@@kaynefryday1251Behave yourself
@@kaynefryday1251 You don’t know much about farming, I was an EMT for 12 years, and responded to various farming incidents. Farming is much more dangerous than it looks. And for your info., hero’s come in many forms. I also grew up on a farm, I know the work and dangers involved. I’m comfortable standing by my comment.
@@kaynefryday1251
How many people do you know that have the means to grow their own vegetables and produce meat?
Farmers ARE true hero's. Give them due respect.
Oh my goodness, your dad with his "hey, subscribe" 😂🤣 Made me laugh out loud!!! Even though I've already done my daily harvest on our small farm, it's still so enjoyable to watch you all picking those beautiful veggies ❤
Am sure you enjoy farm life its been good for vegies so far
Grandpa makes me wish I could subscribe again
Lol thanks for watching!
Lol I would grandpa, but I’m already subscribed!
Grandpa needs to start taking a day off here and there.
I just love the shots of the truck all full of such beautiful produce ❤
Never get tired of watching these two videos of veggie boy’s& girl’s and Stable Life with Joel’s Family they rock . Yea what watermelons you guys didn’t eat 🤫wont say a work 🫢
Dad n Daughter night.....PERFECT! And, how important it is that mom gets to be a carefree lady with her friends for the evening. Everyone reunites with stories to share and bonds strengthened 'til the next time. Yaay for the family!!!
I watch because I learn. THANK YOU!
Andrew I can’t get over how much Callie is starting to look more like you every time you post a new video. She is just so adorable, I love seeing how much your entire family just loves her and she loves hanging out with her great grandma on the swing. We hanger to cherish those special moments like that. Hopper you all have had a great week and you enjoy your weekend. Can’t wait to see what you all got coming next week.
I'd say that black mulch you used this year was worth every penny.
Good afternoon Veggie Boys. Just dropping in to once again express my appreciation for all you do working with dirt - soil being our most important resource. I especially appreciate the fact that you provide alternative food sources to online "deliver to your doorstep" online food companies that deliver food in cardboard boxes, which means that the contents have a good chance of getting spoiled by the inevitable rains of August. God Bless Y'all.
Hi Veggie boys 👋👋. Love from Tanzania East Africa 🇹🇿🇹🇿
I never knew about the water changing vegetables , thanks for that tip. Your whole family are beautiful
I pressure can my Anaheim Green Chilis every year… from Hatch, NM. This year I ordered extra hot forgetting that we were in a severe drought all summer. They were EXTRA hot alright. Now we’ve had so much rain that the crops are only medium or mild😅😅😅😂.
You are the best! Your family working together and making life happen as you grow food for so many people to preserve for the coming winter. It so nice to see you all and little Callie is so cute!
What a great produce haul today🤗! Andrew, thanks for giving us the rundown on the affect less rain can have on the produce! Please tell Grandpa I’m already subscribed but I loved his cameo asking us to subscribe. Your Dad has a great sense of humor 😂🤣😂🤣!
"Whiskey", says Matthew; my kind of man.
Interesting info on sweetness of some foods & the hotness of the peppers. Now we know!!. Picking canning tomatoes & corn sure can keep you busy.. those bell peppers are selling well too. God bless you all from grandma Katie in Oregon.
Red radishes are the same way. Too much rain and they have no flavour. Drier the weather the hotter they are. I controlled the moisture of my radishes and they were just right, not too hot and not too mild. Just the right bite to wakeup your mouth.
I love you veggie boys🙌🙌🙌oooh and giirrls
Wish we lived nearby....would be at your store weekly. Love your program (from NE Idaho)
I've noticed that grocers on the west coast don't seem to know what a poblano chile pepper is. They are ALWAYS marketed as "pasilla" which is a different chile altogether and doesn't even look the same. Poblanos are fat and squat while pasillas are long and thin. A true fresh pasilla is a rare find on the west coast unless home grown while poblanos can be found in virtually every supermarket and are the preeminent chile used for chile rellenos. When jalapeños turn ripe and red, they are called Fresnos out here.
Grandpa: "Subscribe!"
Me: Yes sir.
Such a great dad and husband!
I enjoy watching Joel on a stable life and I enjoy the veggie boys too. Such a nice family ♥️.
Looked like you had another good harvest today.
It seems like you manually pick 98% of your crops! that’s amazing!! what a crew! love on that cutie for me!
Love the heat, but wilted plants are stressed and drop a lot of blossoms. Cuts productivity and longevity of the plants. Yes I've grown firey pepper for quite a while. Next year check out pumpkin spice jalapenos for a change up, a beautiful orange pepper with good size too.
How cute would it be to have Callie be in the "Annnd Girls" shot every time. Would be adorable!
Your a good dad and husband Andrew - it's good for mom to get away with friends sometimes. I'm always amazed how many peppers there are on the plants. Everything looks great and you all work very hard. Thank u for the video and all the explanations.
Personally, still prefer the yellow corn over the white or bicolor. The peppers and tomatoes are looking great. My tomatoes (beer stake and Roma) and peppers are oohing in also. Noting like fresh picked produce! Hope you had a great father and daughter time.
Love you guys from Oman🇴🇲🇴🇲
'peaches and cream'.
we call the yellow and white corn, peaches and cream. the most popular sweet corn in Canada.
I just found your channel and have been binging your videos. Love watching you and your family harvest your crops. It's very relaxing. What is Joel's favorite Root Beer? I flip between Barq's, A&W and Dad's
Blessings to all!
I hope y’all realize how pleasant these videos are we appreciate all y’all do to make these videos please keep it up
Absolutely beautiful bounty...hard work but you are creating wealth and feeding this country. Thank you!
Andrew and Family always happy and smiling God bless you all guys 🏡🙏👍🖐️
Love a good harvest of healthy veggies
Farmers and truckers are the greatest! 👍
I love that you all have a dedicated date night!
My daughter loves the sound of the peppers being picked. Actually she loves everything about the show. More Gavin on VB channel plz! 🎉☘️🌨️💩🦷🧠🦊🐻🐶🌈❄️☃️⛄️☔️☂️🍒🍇🍓🍏🍐🥕🌽🍟🍕
I have noticed that we are 2 weeks behind in making tomato sauce this year. Next week can some whole tomatoes and one more batch of wax beans. Thanks for the sharing.
Love y’all so much prayers to them helping us and everything
First let me say I love your channel and how your family works together. Your dad looks at the harvest with delight and he may not say it but he looks at his boys with so much pride he has in you. Your family is truly blessed.
Everything looks amazing!
So glad to see your "twin" hanging out in the corn Andrew!! He hasn't been in a video is a long time, but I recognized him immediately with that sideways ball cap!!! 😂😂😃👍🏻
Glad we found him haba
I was going to say! A twin sighting! He's been lost in that corn for quite a while! :D
Your veggies are really good lookin, I wish I had some chickens that laid, you and your family have a good evening
حصاد رائع يارفاق
I’m growing Anaheim Hots and they are hotter than Florida asphalt but I like them. As you know always watching from Panama City Florida, USA. 🇺🇸. Oh bu the way don’t forget to tell Grammy hello from her friend in Florida.
Have you heard of Ice wine? It’s a sweet wine that is made from grapes that have frozen on the vine. It’s the same as cabbage. Much sweeter after a freeze. I live in Watkins Glen and it’s New York’s wine country. It’s about 2 hours North of you.
Same here in NE ohio. Geneva OH has an Ice Wine festival. You Probably have the same in NY. Finger Lakes region rocks for great wine!! ❤️😊🍷
@@mbbuckeyes8386 yes, the finger lakes are a wine lovers dream. We have a great wine festival every year at Watkins Glen International Speedway.
Joel's part of their family. I don't understand why everyone that loves the veggie boys, isn't subscribing to him.
19 minutes? I watched 19 minutes of a video without stopping? God, this was fun.
Grandpa says "Subscribe!" with such authority, I subscribed! 🤣😂🤣
Another fan previously stated, " I click like as soon as the video starts". I do the same! It is the least I can do as a thank you for providing me with informative, fun entertainment daily. Fan from Bozeman, MT
I love the look of your great harvests of peppers, but what do folks cook with so many peppers? I usually only buy one at a time.
I can pepper relish, salsa, and chow-chow. Also pepper vinegar with the hot ones.
I just love watching you folks harvest. Our family garden has been doing well but you folks are amazing
Fabulous ….What an achievement I would love to have this kind of life….Keep up the good work…
Great video. 1st. I learned water effects the taste. 2nd. Ochs Rocks when it comes to customer service. 3rd. Hope you and Callie have exciting dates.
I have been binge watching most of your previous videos. Excellent entertainment and very well edited.
My dog, Gypsy, gets upset and barks every time she hears the truck's backup beeper. Just wondering, can you give her a shout out next time you back the truck up?
I love how y'all get a little snack while you work. You and Callie had a Daddy/Daughter Date night.
Hey spending time one on one with the munchkin(s) is always an awesome date night.
I love the veggie boys and girls.
Godspeed Veggie Boys & Girls.
Shirts! A different topic - so many Ochs Family Members - who is the person who orders the shirts in your family and how does that work? Does each family member get 7 shirts, one for each day of the week? With maybe, 10 family members working in the store and farming, that’s a lot of shirts just for one week of work! I am sure you have long sleeve shirts for fall and spring and sweatshirts for fall winter and spring. Inquiring minds want to know! Thanks!! 😊❤️. Just curious…. Appreciate all the work the family does to support the farm and greenhouse operations.
You've got the best looking produce. I'm canning and boy I wish I could drive up the road to you. SC produce really looks scarce . I get somethings but you have to work with what you get. TOO MUCH RAIN THEN HEAT NOW RAIN. GOD BLESS hope it's really a great year for you all
When I heard grandpa saying subscribe he did not have to say it twice. Love the videos keep them coming.
lots of tomatoes on the ground. I know all of them can't make the trip to the store but being a tomato loveri it hurts me so much........ ha
Daddy Daughter Date - cool . Thank you for sharing your day Andrew .
Loved it when you dad said hey subscribe
What another awesome video.
THE FARM MARKET GIRLS starring Aunt Becky. I’d watch that channel. Another tantalizing glimpse of Aunt Becky today.
How much time do you let go between corn plantings to keep it going all year? Thanks. Best channel on TH-cam
A few weeks without rain is not a drought. As a resident of the Southwest since 1950, I know drought.
The amount of vegetables you pick every day...and the very hard work that goes into it...I commend you all...great job
Andrew on one of your other videos you almost grabbed that GREAT BIG BLACK AND YELLOW STRIPPED 🕷!!! when you were pulling sweet corn. My blood turned to ice water.
Blimps in the Pennsylvania area usually moor/anchor at Williamsport Airport. N3A, the 'Spirit of Goodyear,' is scheduled today (27 August 2022) at Cleveland, but I'd think they'd moor at Akron:
NFL BROWNS VS BEARS
First Energy Stadium
Cleveland, OH
August 27, 2022
WEWS
N3A
Sunday, 28 August 2022:
NFL STEELERS VS LIONS
Acrisure Stadium (formerly Heinz Field)
Pittsburgh, PA
August 28, 2022
CBS
N3A
A few years back, it would be a safe guess that they were covering the City Council meetings at Scranton, they were fun back during the "Ray Days"!!! And, if memory serves, the US Military had one break loose, then come down near Williamsport nearly a decade ago.
Wow those are some long hot peppers my goodness there are some really fantastic soil to get Peppers like that
I just love your video’s ! I was a farmer who thought we had great garden crops but nothing like you crops of Peppers! I am 89 yrs old I never. Miss your vedio s! You asked if we liked them! Love them!
Glad you are getting some tomatoes! Hope yall get some rain soon.
Hi Veggie boys and girls ...greatings from Suriname.
Good afternoon all the Veggie Boys & Girls :), we have been watching your YT programme for quite some time, and I have to say from the first show I looked at I am still in love with the present. Cannot wait for new videos to load. It is understandable with all the hands on picking it is not easy to do the editing for videos but when Grandpa made a statement "subscribe" that made me think yea he's correct, so I am a new subscriber even though I am well aware of all your responsibilities during all the Seasons. We just love Kelly Rose, she is such a Darling child always has a smile and always looks happy, like my own grandson, it is amazing when children behave like that. Not all things are possible hence our veggies are dismal to say the least. Potatoes are a nightmare we have tried so many varieties but still not satisfied for what we have to pay. People who can buy from the Farm Stall do not always appreciate the value what they can buy. Yes, Brinjals do have thorns at the calyx I know what their sting feels like, I pick them with tender loving care. Veggies truly are amazing and so good for us. Do take care, be happy, we are watching you. Kind regards, Elize
Harvest is always the most enjoyable thing to watch you doing. But think of all the hard work preparing food this moment from the winter to spring, it is all beautiful! Planting in tears, harvest in laughter. So true! God bless you!
Did he just say unsweetened tea 😱 oh my southern heart can’t take itttttt!!!!
Here too.... romas are getting ripe... my personal garden too and cherry... but I picked up quite a bit of Romas just picked at the produce store.... now time to make sauce on Monday👌🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅
Gorgeous produce! Former grocery clerk here. I remember the painful thorns on artichokes poking me. They can infect your fingers and cause inflammation. Great seeing you all!
How often do you irrigate, and how do you decide when the watering is sufficient?
Enjoyed you water talk👍
Awesome video
How do you know the difference between the colours when your picking them?
Keep the great videos coming, thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us all
👏👌👍🥰
A great harvest God sure blessing you all
Such a busy day, you picked so much food. I agree with Grandpa, water is the best 👌.
Just bought some RockRooster boots using your link. Thanks for the promo code and telling me about the boots. Now my horses have a new set to step on!!!
Your baskets on the van look so colourful! 👍
We grow and keep pepper plants of all kinds in our house in a green house we added on. The plants live for years and years.They produce and then loose their leaves, hibernate for a month than regrow their leaves and restart producing. They do this cycle over and over.
Awe daddy daughter date night how sweet 💕
I love plum tomato . I cook a lot of sauces with them . .
I'm already subscribed GrandPa, love the channel and all the hard work.
I used to love long hots but not now.
