Jael, you are such a hard worker. I think you are going to indeed reclaim the land. Someone not interested in agriculture would not probably not fare well but I think you are going to make this property more valuable than you can imagine. 🙏🏾
Jael bonjour. Good luck with the building of your driveways. Yes Cypres trees are beautiful indeed. We have clay ground also, and our fruit trees grow nicely, if you want to know which trees I will tell you next time. I keep a journal of the dates we planted what. The Taro roots looked good.
@@jaelofthevillage On our clay ground we have Cherry trees, Apricots, Peaches, Figs, Apples, Pears, Prunes and Berries (blue berries, black berries, red berries), even tomatoes, paprika, watermelon and melon we have grown but don't anymore because when the weather is too dry they don't grow well and needs lots of watering.
Hi Jael great job trying out different plants to see what works & what doesn’t. If your land is not even you can create a natural pond by having small French drains that direct water to all meet at the pond for water harvesting for the dry season & you can then add ducks & they are good for your garden & don’t destroy like chickens but add value as keeping pesticides & weeds at bay. ❤all the best
Jael, one thing I have learnt over the years as a passionate nature lover is, when ur planting a tree seedling, n u remove all the soil from the roots with water, as in after taking the plastic off, u place it in a bucket or cup of water n all the soil comes off, the roots straighten n when u plant it it really takes a short period of time to blossom compared to the ones planted with compacted roots. U should try it.
Hi Jael, thanks for sharing another wonderful video. How nice are those arrow roots, enjoy some for me I love arrow roots, iwe ni ya kushemusha, fried or roasted, I just love them. Be blessed dear ❤😊
Hello, I know willows grow near water and just did quick research and indeed willows help with swampy land by breaking up the clay underneath and drawing water deeper. Try it! Willows are also beautiful. Apparently some grasses do the same. I googled 'what plants to grow to improve swampy land'
Blessings Jael🥰. Please be encouraged! I think you are doing a fantastic job with what you have to work with. I pray God continues to send those across your path who will continuously give you a helping hand. It’s wonderful to have a knowledgeable big sis to give you advice and a helping hand. I believe one of your end results awards will be “this is what happens when you take what is considered nothing and make something of it!!!” Your homestead is already looking so much better than it did after the fire! The arrowroot and banana trees are looking great! Continue to move forward with your vision as blessings overtake you on all sides. Mungu akubariki! 💜🥰🙏🏾👏🏾🫶🏾🙋🏾♀️
Thank you Jael for this video, especially during this rainy season. How sloppy is your land? Have you thought of digging a deep trench along the parcel to drain the water downstream? Are there any experts in the channel to help out? Can she bring soil from somewhere to raise up the entire ground? But also remember that water is a very valuable resource. How else can one harness and exploit this resource without just draining it away to waste?
I have a trench along the fence to drain the excess water. I intend to put up a fish pond somewhere in the property. Harvesting rain water will also reduce the flooding. I'm building a tank soon.
What a great harvest of arrow roots, the Best feeling ever, i enjoyed learning about diffrent types of trees.. Happy that you can see with the experiment and know what plants trive in your land. Soo happy to witness your hard work praying off. More blessings jael ❤
Hi sis congratulations to all the success in your home karibu sana. I am very happy for you and I thank GOD ALMIGHTY for providing the resources. Thank GOD for your life because you are very blessed.
Thank you for sharing this update, Jael. Yes, I do remember when you planted the tarro. Great to see the fruit of your hard work. Please keep hope alive and never give up. God bless the fruits of your labor and may he fulfill your dreams.🙏🙏✌✌
Hi sis..Well, I feel so welcome to your channel. Even more so, with this vid. Me too, I love trees and all they do for us and the world. I enjoy seeing trees planted. After all, we are people of the Earth. Wonderful to have trees, we could use more! Thank you so "very" much!!! 😇
Have you considered digging/building a dam. And then cut the drainage to it. Then you will never lack water, and then you can raise fish. Amd then thank me later.😂
Jael, you are such a hard worker. I think you are going to indeed reclaim the land. Someone not interested in agriculture would not probably not fare well but I think you are going to make this property more valuable than you can imagine. 🙏🏾
❤
Thank you so much. It is all I have. I'm determined to make it work and your words really encourage me. ❤️
You could make a drainage pond to keep fish
So refreshing, you can consider digging a water pan if the space allows then use the water during dry season for your garden
Oh,this is a good idea. Thank you.
You have been very inspiring to me! I cant stop watching your videos. I am tempted to start something new Jael!
Go for it! No holding back

I will appreciate more ideas on crops and trees I can grow here. I'll be waiting

Jael you will have to try and test which grows on your kind of clay ground

Thank you for these new tips. I'm considering the French drains. Someone mentioned it here

Makes some sense. I'll try this next time.
I like following your farming adventures. You keep trying plants and trees and I enjoy the journey with you!
I'm always so happy when they stand the soggy soils. One day this swamp will be a forest. Thanks for sticking around. ❤️

Get an excavator to dig the driveway. Also consider rearing geese. Nice video
Good idea!

I have a few already. Thank you so much
Hii Jael nice to see the progress that is going on your piece of land.

Wow! I didn't know about willows. What a beautiful tree. I don't know if I will find it here,but I'd love one in my yard
Wooow! Just can't wait to do this in my land. I love farming
All the best,darling
Jael why don't you grow the trees around the four corners of your fencing, except where you have constructed your house.
Yes,dear. There are so many trees along the fences,only that they're still young and may not be visible in the video.
Mungu azidi kuwabariki wanadada❤️
Amen to that. Bless you

Jael can you try arrow root? It does well in such place
Hey Florence. You must have skipped some parts of the video. I have arrow roots. I even harvested some.
@@jaelofthevillage seen and saw it at the end ,kudos dear
Pls use Garden Gloves, and Gumboot.
I honestly enjoy touching the soil with bare hands. The gumboots, I agree
Watching from South Sudan juba 🙏❤️
Hey Grace
What type of soil do you have in your home? I would like to own some land there. I will appreciate your response to this, thank you
I have clay soil. It's not the same case with my neighbours. Apparently, there are only two homes with this type of soil here.
Kenya?
Yeah
Pine is good, only that it does not allow other things to grow around it.
Oh yes. It takes up all the water and nutrients.
Make some swales and divert water .
Sure. Thanks
A huge Dry well ?
I don't understand
Jael is that another(anew) plot?
Yes,different from where I live
try plantain also
Sure. I'm trying to find the seedlings. They're not common here.

The swampy nature is actually blessing! You just dont know. Do proper reclaiming and you shall enjoy.
Sure. I'm trying my best. I know it will turn out great
Have you considered digging/building a dam. And then cut the drainage to it. Then you will never lack water, and then you can raise fish. Amd then thank me later.😂
😅 very good idea. I want to use it for keeping fish
Pumpkins will grow too.
I'll be so happy. Let's see how it goes
Maybe you can try growing the trees that don't love the swamp on dirt mounds.
Yes,thank you
The bananas are really doing well. 👍👍
Oh yes. And they're so sweet always
You receive so much love but the love birds hate you.
😅😅😅
Hi Jael. I like all the trees you have planted on your land. Great work you are doing.
Thank you so much! I love to preserve and welcome nature to my humble abode

The pumpkins will do well.
I hope so. Let's see how it goes
I love your positive energy in everything you do. You spark meaningful inspiration to many people . Thank you
You're welcome. Thanks for the kind words
So blue gum trees are best for absorbing water? Like in a swampy area? Do their leaves fall off often?
Yes,they're good for waterlogged soils. The leaves fall off in the dry season.
Those papyrus family plants do well in the swampy area.nice driveway
Thank you. Let's see how turns out
Wow, learning so much from you Jael. May your efforts pay back. Enjoy your home girl.
