    I havent been to TSC yet! I cant wait! (None near NYC, a little farther out) when we move onto our land I'll have 2 nearby. Yay! I think you should put a little cafe set or bistro set in your spot so you can sit and ponder your garden and life! Great video! Thank you.

    So excited for you… great job on everything!! Your dream is coming true, and it's all looking amazing already! Thanks for sharing this with us -☺💓👍 I get very excited about business like Tractor Supply also! 😉 Your veggies, herbs and flowers are going to love their new home in your well made, attractive beds!! Blessings to you and your husband! 😊👏💞💐

    Great job, shovel by shovel you did it. Here's a thought…. embrace the rust, it's beautiful. As long as it's sturdy, it reminds us nothing is perfect nor permanent.

  18. Sharyn

    Wow, so beautiful. You definitely make the raised beds look easy enough for a novice. 😊
    I love that T-shirt with the kitty in the pocket!

    Way to knock out those beds Natalie! I can understand your excitement about Tractor Supply. The first time I walked in there I was like, "this is my store".🤣👍

  22. Linda Rinner

    You are absolutely right. Just because you didin't check off everything on your list TODAY doesn't mean you don't deserve a JOB WELL DONE!! Look how far you've come since it was a bare patio. I hope you'll be able to video while you plant, I love to watch someone else work, LOL. I'm proud of you, girl!

    Looks AMAZING!!! You are doing good!!! I had that moment over the weekend when a Hummingbird sat at his feeder and I thought….YES! All the hard work is paying off. Believe it or not, up here in Indiana we are actually praying for the rain to stop (as thunder rolls in the background). Farmers are unable to plant and my small garden is struggling. So all prayers appreciated. Keeping going lil lady. It's looking great! 🌱🌷🐦🌻🌿

  25. Gin G

    It's amazing to see all of your hard work come together!!! The garden looks so beautiful 🙂

  27. Elisheba79

  28. Littlefoot Ranch

    You are absolutely brilliant! Your garden is incredibly beautiful & I’m so happy for you. Seeing you in your garden just makes my heart so happy ❤️

  29. vmorganbogart

    Great job! What a difference from that blank canvas that was once there. You are painting a living masterpiece! Can’t wait to see it all planted.

    Looks wonderful!!! Yes, feel awesome on what you have accomplished! Don't eliminate the rusty panel. I look for rusty, earthy elements to add to my garden! I just got gifted two old stump seats for seating plants on but I think they are going in the chicken coop for perchs.

  32. Providence Farmstead

    Look at you speedy builder! one of the most common questions people ask on Miah & Jess's Facebook page is how do you haul a cattle panel. Good for you for figuring it out! Everything looks amazing!

  35. Along The River Homestead

    Those flowers laid out looked amazing! Every time you step foot outside you will be reminded of how hard you worked on that space & enjoy it that much more <3

    1st time at Tractor Supply????? OH WOW!!!! I've noticed once a hummingbird finds a place of food he comes back every 15 min. Favorite quote: "I could sit here and say wow I’m really bummed I didn’t finish all the things I set out to do today. I could do that or I could look around me and say oh my goodness chic you have done so much." THIS!!!!! Doing a great job!

  41. Heavens Essentials

    Ok I went on your Amazon link and got some girl digz yes!! My hands thank you. I also got some other stuff my husband will not see lol. It was fun to shop knowing it would benefit you. 😊

  42. Tawana Jeffries

    Oh my goodness!! Lowe’s and Home Depot sell cattle panels and they have delivery. I’m impressed how handy and determined you are! How many yards of dirt did it take to fill those beds. Awesome job!! Love your plant choices. You’re so inspiring!

  43. A Lazy Christian

    New subbie here – thank you and God bless you for this channel and the wonderful raised bed design that I have forwarded to my husband for production Lol. We moved to NC a little over a year ago and Tractor Supply was right next door to our complex – I was like "ooooh a tractor store!", but had no reason to go in. When we began searching for a home earlier this year (with a big yard, of course), we went in for the first time and I was like "ooooh baby chicks"! Been my place ever since. Now that we're making plans to begin homesteading I won't allow myself to step foot in there without Hubster – I will spend all of our money and have no regrets.

    Hey Natalie, came by to share this video with my bff in az. She will love your beds! They’re the prettiest I’ve seen. Hope you’re doing awesome. Dani
