Makes me happy to watch you thrive with your garden.
Aw thank you! I so appreciate you coming along ❤️
I’m from Alaska and we used to go berry picking, and all of the adults had full pales/buckets and all of us kids had purple/pink hands and faces and empty pales/buckets! Some of the best memories ❤️ beautiful harvest!!!
Wow! What a haul! I am only physically able to harvest a little at a time. Today I harvested some Swiss chard, 5 beets, kale, the last of the pea pods and thyme. My calendula has also self sown and wants to take over my garden beds. My garden is doing better this year than in years past. The green beans are starting to grow beans and my zucchini only has male flowers at this time. I am also Zone 6b and live in Michigan. Take your time with your harvesting. I’m sure it will be there tomorrow. Take care and have a blessed day.
That huge yellow cucumber is PERFECT to harvest seed for next years crop! ❤
I bet your house smelled amazing from the herb harvest. I always feel so rich and so blessed when I harvest herbs.
Oh it was divine!
What a productive day in your garden.
Love the video! Thanks for sharing. I'm in Nova Scotia and have harvested beets, spinach, lettuce, carrots, chives and oregano so far. We have tomatoes and cucumbers coming along nicely. The squash (Blue Hubbard, Georgia Candy Roaster, Acorn and Pie Pumpkin)are growing well despite the squash beetles and squash bugs, which I am vigilant at checking for. Cabbage looking the best we have ever grown. Corn skipped but what came up is looking good. Green beans, yellow beans and pole beans (Scarlett Runner and Kentucky Wonder) all doing great. Our garden is my happy place and I thoroughly enjoy seeing yours as well!
Wow, what a harvest! Can’t wait to see your preservation video.
I've been dehydrating my cucumbers and making a shelf stable tzatziki mix, if you need a cucumber idea!
Oh my goodness! I’m so glad to have found your channel!!! I wish I found you earlier this season because I was at a loss trying to start my garden… I found other videos that were informative BUT not many people particular to my area that really know our climate, environmental challenges, etc. I look forward to seeing more of your videos and learning! 😊
Soooo enjoyed your harvest ❤
We drink a lot of fruit and protein smoothies in my house. You can slice and freeze cucumbers for smoothies. A lot of other veggies are good in smoothies mixed with fruit without changing the taste.
I wish I could grow cucumbers and zucchini. The squash bugs eat everything including the cucumbers. We also fight squash vine borers. We also don't have any bees to pollinate our squash and have to hand pollinate the zucchini. The drought has really been hard on us in north Arkansas and southern Missouri. Your graden is doing great. Glad I found your channel. Thanks
Great harvest! I think we are in for a rough winter in Maryland because the animals have eaten all my apples, peaches and blackberries. I grow Concorde grapes too and so far no animal problems. But oh my this heatwave is challenging. Keep up the great job.
Being July and having so much rain, the season of Zucchini Boats for supper has begun. Such a versatile vegetable it is.
very good harverst
You are rich from your labors! We are rich with inspiration and happiness for you (maybe even jealous) - LOL.
Lol, thanks sweet friend! Many blessings to you ❤️
Great harvest 😊love your celery 😊herbs are wonderful 😊
Thanks so much! ☺️❤️
For those who want to cut back their berry bushes every year, the best and easiest way I have found is to buy an attachment for my weed eater that looks like a saw blade. Makes fast easy work.
Yes! We have a pole saw attachment for ours and it works like a charm!
@@seedandsparrowhomesteadindeed! I have seen videos where people struggle with everything from machetes to hedge trimmers or whatever you call those giant scissors and thought I'd pass on some knowledge to your viewers that might need it.
Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to seeing your upcoming canning/preservation videos!
I store my celery in water in the fridge to keep fresh
I really enjoy your channel, you are a very hard worker
Thank you very much! ☺️❤️
Wonderful harvest
Thank you! ☺️ ❤️
So enjoyed this video 👍😊Well done.
Yay! Thank you ☺️ ❤️
It is my first time on your channel and I have just subscribed. Thank you so much for sharing. Your garden is very nice. Keep up the good work. All the best on this journey🙏
Hello new friend! Thanks so much! Glad to have you here ❤️☺️
That massive basket of celery!!😂 and the calendula, just wow. I can’t wait to have more flowers as weeds, so far I have plenty volunteer marigolds that need some harsh trimming to not choke out the peppers.
Wow! Beautiful harvest! You have lots of work ahead of you 😊.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching! I sure do 😂
Your garden is beautiful. I have a small garden this year. Just have a few tomatoe plants, peppers and herbs this time around.
All gardens are beautiful no matter the size! I love to see people growing!
Very impressive haul from the garden!
Thank you! 😊
Hope you do a preservation video of your harvests this year.
Working on the first one now! It will be out on Friday!
Love watching and learning ☀️
So glad! Thank you! ❤️
What a beautiful harvest Kelsey! It has been very hot here in Washington. Today is another 96’ and then it drops into the 80’s tomorrow. It is also muggy here but not like back east. We’ve also been harvesting berries and peas. Last week I harvested my first garlic. It won’t be long and onions and potatoes will be ready too. Today I will be harvesting some dandelion hoping to use for tea. I’ve never done that before but giving it a try. I also have some wild Chamomile which I am also going to attempt to harvest the flowers from. Your celery and herbs are amazing and it will be fun to see what you do with them. Thank you for sharing with us. God Bless you friend! ☀️
Hi sweet Cheryl! Ugh this heat! I’m definitely a 70s and low 80s girl, I think my garden would agree too 😂 Sounds like your garden had been giving lots of goodies, such a fun time of year. Blessings friend, thanks for always being here, I appreciate you so much! ❤️
I take my cucumbers and peel them and slice them up and put some salt on them and make them into cucumber chips. They're so so good. I give them out at church and around my house as well. Wonderful video!!! The harvesting videos are my favorite
wonderful harvest and you are going to be busy. god bless you and your family
Thank you so much ☺️ ❤️
we had a temp as high as 111 this last week but it has cooled down to the low 96 to 102 now
My goodness that is a wonderful crop. 😊😊
Thank you! I’m so grateful!
A bountiful harvest indeed! I am in Canada and my garden is just starting to produce. I have harvested herbs, jalapeños, cucumbers and zucchini so far. Great job with your garden. It is beautiful!
Lovely harvest! It’s such a fun time when the garden starts to produce! Thank you so much , blessings ❤️
Awesome! I just pulled a big bowl of beans. I would like to see what you do with your calendula flowers.
Thank you! I can do that!!
Nice, happy watching😍😍😍😍
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
A good way to preserve your large zucchini is to cut out the seeds, shred, freeze dry and powder it. I use it in muffins in place of some of the flour. I put it in meatloaf instead of bread crumbs and I also put it in spaghetti sauce to thicken it. Hiding veggies in other dishes.
Amazing harvest.
Thank you kindly ❤️❤️❤️
@@seedandsparrowhomestead your more than welcome
Amazing harvest. I believe chickens love cucumbers so it’s definitely not a waste 😊
Thank you! They enjoyed them thoroughly 😂
You have so much knowledge at such a young age.
Aw thank you! I love learning and believe we should never stop!
I have joan j raspberries. I will have to try the purple royalty variety. Those double gold are beautiful.
Give me all the berries, seriously, I need them all 😂
How about grating and freeze drying the cucumbers so later you can make tzatziki sauce with them
I have never grown my own plants for tea. Maybe you can do a video on how you make your own teas, extracts, and medicinal things. I’m more of a visual learner and I’d love to start doing my own things.
I do have videos on extracts and tinctures but I can definitely do one on teas! ☺️❤️
You can freeze-dry or dehydrate cucumber for the pantry as chips, or using in veggie dips. Shred them if you like homemade tzatziki or ranch dressing.
Great ideas! Thanks you!!!
New subscriber here from California 9b Central Valley. You have a gorgeous garden!
Hello new friend! Welcome and thank you so much! Glad you’re here ❤️❤️❤️
What an Abundance!! God is so good!! Blessings prayed for you and family 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Yes He is! Thank you so much ☺️ ❤️❤️❤️
@@seedandsparrowhomestead can you please share the name of the toothache plant or is toothache plant what I should look for? Thank you !!
@@HuberRhonda you should be able to search for that but it right name is spilanthes. I believe baker creek has it, if you are allergic to daisies be aware they are in the same family.
@@seedandsparrowhomestead Thank you so much!!
I just got finished cutting off a lot of limbs that were broken off, full of golf ball sized tomatoes from two of my plants. The small storm wasn’t kind to my poor plants…😢😢
Oh no! I’m so sorry, that’s always a bummer! I hope they recuperate well and give you lots of produce!
Take care of yourself.dont overdo yourself.they will be there tomorrow
Everything looks great! My first year gardening I grew a cucumber plant up each of my sunflowers… all 16 of them 🤦🏻♀️ I only need about 6 jars of pickles and a dozen jars of relish. I genuinely had dreams about trying to give strangers bags of cucumbers 😂
Hahaha! I can’t imagine! I had a hard time giving them away, just from 6 plants. Do you ever see the video going around about it being zucchini season and nobody wanting them, so they start leaving them in any car that the windows are down? 😂😂
@@seedandsparrowhomestead lol, I have seen the videos and I totally relate!
Great harvest. Looking forward to Fridays video. I am looking to get a new dehydrator. What model do you use?
All my squash keep getting hard with SVB, I go out each morning and scrape eggs and do surgery on each plant to find the larva, BT doesn’t seem to help. The south is brutal for growing them!
I live in the Bahamas and I have found that if you just use ash from any burnt weeds, bush, cardboard etc it eliminates cabbage worm, aphids and squash bugs. We use to pick bugs for hours before and tried bt, neem, DE and some dawn but the ash has worked the best. We didn’t need to pick bugs after that. Trying to keep ash on my watermelons, cantaloupe, squash and cucumber plants now. It also does not harm or deter bees.
I could roll around in a field of marjoram.
I’ll join you! 😂
@@seedandsparrowhomestead 😂
Number 635 to like the video... and I am in the 6.6k to view the video... Hugs from Esquimalt
Hey sweet friend! Thanks so much for stopping by! 🤗☺️❤️
I make horehound and spilanthes lozenges and I literally just made a throat spray for my husband 2 weeks ago. It’s worth mentioning that they should not be used by anyone allergic to daisies as they are in the daisy family.
Oh fantastic ideas, thank you! Yes, thank you for that reminder!!!
❤
Thanks for being here ☺️❤️❤️❤️
Love the variety of berries you have incorporated into the homestead! New raspberry & blueberry fruit grower here 🙏 & was curious how you keep the birds from stealing your berries?
I seriously want every variety, I may have a problem 😂 Fortunately I haven’t had any issue with birds, but I do keep netting on hand if they start to get greedy ☺️
@@seedandsparrowhomestead #gimmeallthemberries 🤣
@@juliedayton8754#YAS 😂
wondering you said you have a bunch of cucumbers in your freezer do you have ideas or tips for freezing them?
❤❤❤
Hi friend! ❤️❤️❤️
On your little homestead, do you have room for a little Veg Shed, with counters/running water, so that you can Process outdoors?
Where did you get your plants or seeds for all your mints ? I also am in Pennsylvania, northeast. Thank You ! ❤❤😊
Baker creek has a few but most of mine came from a specialty green house in my area, Smuckers in Millersburg.
Hi! How do you keep the bugs off your kale?? I quit growing it because it always had tons of worms on it. Yuck. Do you fertilize your garden plants? With what?
I always plant a lot, to account for loss but I will spray with BT! Like I said the one kale is doing well but the other is not.
I don’t fertilize unless I see something struggling, I focus on a heavy amount of compost at the beginning of the season ☺️
How do you keep rabbits from eating your kale and greens? Rabbits ate all my kale a couple days ago and I am heart broken. :(
And I don’t recommend planting less cucumber plants.. because some years they will fail miserably and some years the same amount of two plants will feed the entire neighborhood lol
Ain’t that the truth 😂 I do have a lot left from last year so I may be good to take a year off!
Kelsey you’ve been at this longer than I so you must know something I don’t…. But I chop my whole celery down and it regrows…. So what is the benefit of leaving some and taking some stalks ?
They all get big! I’ve done some of it all, leave small middles, leave small outers and harvest whole bunches. I find if I leave the smaller stalks they continue growing so I get all big stalks!
What about pickle chips for a healthy snack
Good idea! ❤️
Not sure how I feel about banana and mint together. Is that the flavor profile as well?
Yes, totally odd but somehow works, it’s not overly one or the other, somehow it’s a flavor all its own!
My kale was netted yet somehow the aphids got to them. 😢
Sneaky little things! I’m so sorry, such a bummer to loose things to bugs! Look into captain jacks spray or purchasing some lady bugs!
If I was to purchase up to 4 books for medicinal/ tea/ tincture benefits, which of the 4 on your amazon would you recommend as the top beneficial to get the most helpful info for?
Rachel Weavers books are golden, I’d choose her over gladstar, although hers are still great resources. Amy Fewell has a great beginners book that includes so much! It’s not on Amazon but I love Darryl Pattons book too! Wealth of knowledge!
@seedandsparrowhomestead awesome thanks so much. I will go check them out. I do follow Amy as well! I love your cottage garden. I would love to create a space like that. I have been re-working my garden spaces all spring trying to get some more flowers and herbs and mints integrated into the garden spaces. I love watching your garden and harvesting you are a wealth of knowledge with all the plants and flowers and herbs. Thank you.
