It’s been a quiet month here at the SkyRidge garden.
In this video I wanted to sit down and explain why things suddenly went quiet, what has been happening behind the scenes, and where the garden is headed next. Sometimes life forces you to slow down for a while, and that’s what happened here.
But the garden isn’t going anywhere.

Thanks!
Great video! We missed you and are glad you are back!
Family first, we will be here when you're ready
Prayers for your family member who is going through that. It is good to have y’all back. Don’t worry about us, we will be here for you and there is power in prayer!
Brian, give our best to Emily and her family… Good to have you back, looking forward to seeing some videos. Now…Full Steam Ahead.
♥♥♥♥♥
Of course we'll still be here waiting for you.
My best to you and the family, especially Emily's sick immediate family member.
I pray God touches him or her in a special way with His healing power, in the name of Jesus.
Hi from the Philly area. You don't have to apologize for not putting out videos. I understand u have a life like all of us. I love ur gardens. Please I need help with mine which is not as big as urs.
I hope everything will continue to go well for you and your family. I enjoy both of your channels. Whenever you upload a new one, I’m happy to see it. But, certainly understand that life sometimes throws us curveballs. 🙏
Isn't it great to have friends that know things?? Thanks to Debbie for the banana info!! We'll keep Emily's family member in our prayers. Looking forward to the Vego planters! We've had two false springs and everything is on hold. 80º one day, next day sleet and a little snow mix. Zone 7B needs to get with the program! Thanks as always Brian! 💜
Godseed Brian, Emily, Noah, and family. Praying for yous, in Christ. Amen.
Hope all turns out well with Emilie's family member. Funny you're in the 90s and after a very nice false spring, I just finished putting frost fabric over my blueberries to protect the flowers from several upcoming nights in the 20s here in NC 7b. Noticed your redbud in the background of your latest NLG video and was very excited for you. I have 2 good sized ones blooming but not sure how badly the frost will hurt them. Very glad the gardening season is getting under way again. I think you're really going to like your new raised beds.
Glad you are back. Family comes first.
I had to sub again youtubis lol unsubed me but I love watching your videos you seem like such a kind heart when ever you need take time life happens sometimes good sometimes not so good sending prayers for you family just know you are amazing
I am so glad you are back. God bless you and your whole family.
We know you have family and life and that you share with us here mostly for free on top of all the responsibilities.. my prayers have been with you and Emily🌸🙏🏻🌸🙏🏻🌸. And we are all just grateful for whatever you post here whenever you can💜
Okay I feel Like Im in HAWAII walking around your place. So wonderful🌸🌸🌸
The cottage garden💜💜💜💜💜 looks amazing!!!
My redbud tree started blooming and then the sap started running down the drunk from where I pruned it. I think it may have died and I don’t know why.
And… we love you guys!!! God bless you and Emily and family. I know Emily is going through it to since you lost her dad. I’m catholic and you’re both on my prayer list every Wednesday when I light candle..
love and prayers for endurance and peace.
God Bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Family first Brian. We will wait after all you do have another channel we can watch if we are having Brian withdrawals. Have a beautiful day.
Hi Brian, I am sorry to learn of serious health issues in your extended family, but glad things are looking a little better. (I've been busy with my OWN troubles – multiple broken bones, great pain, surgery/ casts/ inability to DO things, etc. and ON TOP OF other earlier serious body & brain injuries, so I "understand" somewhat.)
Have you checked out "resonance/ frequency healing" yet? The Rife frequencies, and the frequencies of spiritual places of LOVE & GOODNESS – especially if they still have their OLD bells/ ~130 year-old building/s, could be VERY helpful – with NO intrusive "treatment".
BTW, I'd stay away from music based on 528 Hz – it's billed as "the love & 'miracle' frequency", BUT, the REAL "love frequency", is supposed 728-729 Hz, so, to be safe, just avoid it/ 528.
Sadly, MANY healing vid creators do NOT know this, so likely erroneously create music that could actually NOT be what it purports to be/ do, but ACTUALLY, "do the OPPOSITE" – open one to the demonic… The LAST thing we need – when recovering from serious health issues, is exposure to DEMONIC cr*p!! For me, personally, I just avoid 528 Hz-based music, "to be safe".
The Tartarians used energy healing in their vast, incredible, gorgeous churches – which also collected "etheric" free energy… Sadly, MOST of those magnificent healing edifices have been bombed to smithereens, or BURNED to the ground, or somehow negatively changed (wouldn't want * FREE*, Truly EFFICACIOUS, REAL HEALING of body, Spirit & Soul, now WOULD "they"/ our controllers??
Prayers, for you & all of your loved ones' well-being…
As for the lavender, why not put all three varieties of lavender, in your planned area? Interspersed. That way, you get ALL of the qualities, of ALL varieties… It might look "patchy" in the very early spring, but it SHOULD "fill out", right? Just my thought, and what I would probably do… (The scent of lavender is heavenly, IMO.)
Anyway, YOU are the gardening expert, so you will know what to do…
Last year at this time, it was t-shirt weather, and I planted various hardy "green", and had edible clippings by the end of March. THIS year, it's been FREEZING (though, luckily, not as much snow – but heavy rain, so that we still get our grounds saturated with moisture, as would happen with snow).
It's a wild world…
Cheers, Brian, and ALL Best Wishes, to you & your loved ones (INCLUDING all pets/ animals, of course), AND to ALL of your viewers. Cheers!
I really feel this. Been dealing with a lot of family stuff as well….parents and other relatives getting older and stuff.
I hope the best for everyone involved.
Of the two channels, this one is my favorite! I do watch the other channel but I’m in a totally different climate up here north of Seattle in 8b. I do appreciate the gardening videos where you do mention considerations for other climates, but we do suffer up here from lack of heat for ripening.
Love your work, Thank You!!
Brian, continued blessings for you, your family and your family member in medical crisis. Keeping you all in my thoughts.
******IMPORTANT****** only clip one wing! If you do both, they just flap harder and can still fly out. If you only clip one, they are off kilter and can't fly. Try it and see!!
I am glad it stabilized the diagnosis! Prayers for a full recovery! Have a blessed God week! ❤ Hugs to you 3!
I thought my daughter's medical emergency would only be a month long. Nope, 2 years in and we're still looking for answers. I have not worked a lot in the last two years. Thankfully my business was well established before this happened. If this had happened when I had a regular 9-5 job, I would have been unemployed 2 years ago. Whenever you get around to posting new videos, I'll be there if I can.
Blessings on you and your family Brian. May God hold each of you in is loving, healing arms and give wisdom to the physicians.
I hope Emily’s family member is getting better. My prayers are with you.
It’s all looking good , keep it doing
Lost my oldest sister Feb '24, my son's father June '24, and baby sis just passed about a month ago on Feb 11th.
Maybe you already know but just clip one wing each. Puts them more off balance and unable to get anywhere.
No worries Brian I'm subscribed to both of your channels. I'm here for you. I enjoy watching both. Love and prayers to you and your family.
This channel is the one I prefer. The other channel is the one I watch just to participate in views. To be honest I don't really care for the other channel, LOL
Maybe I am weird.
🥰 Hello Brian 🙋♂Hello Nacho 😸 Hello Bella 🐶 Hello Chickens 🐓🐔🐣🐤🐥 Sending good vibes and positive thoughts for your family through this tough time 🙏
Best wishes to Emily and family. Good luck!❤
Absolutely you have my prayers 💗🙏💗 Yes, we can see that your anxiety management has improved. Give yourself a well-deserved hug 🫂
Hi Brian, First…I am so sorry to hear about Emily’s family member’s health concerns, but grateful things seem to be improving! I will be keeping you all in prayer. Also just wanted to say how fun it was to hear you mention my comment about bananas. While we have never met, your sincerity and garden wisdom make me feel like we are true friends. Hope to meet you in person sometime! I often think of you when I am trying to get a vision on landscaping my yard.
Prayers coming your way.
We love you Brian. Take care. We're here when you need us.
Sending prayers for your family 💖
I’m days late from this post. But grandma Girl please. No disrespect.
I was thinking last week that it's been a while. I enjoy your videos and look forward to them. Family first! Lots going on in my family, me included, with cancer reports and scary news. Hugs and prayers for you and your family.
doo doo occurs. family first. love ya man
Of course my prayers for Emily's family. I can't believe how much you've accomplished over the last few years. You need to show new subscribers.
Glad you're back Brian. I've been going through withdrawals not having a weekly SkyRidge video to look forward to. Hope things continue to improve for your family!
Nice to have you back! Hello Bella! Take care and can't wait to see your new raised beds.🎉🌞👍
