Hey ya’ll, I’m Jess from Roots & Refuge Farm

Welcome to a place that feels like home. A small farm with a big family. We hope you’ll pull up a chair, grab some coffee and visit awhile.

There was a time that all I wanted in the world was a little farm where I could raise my family and grow our food. Now, that is exactly what exists outside my door. In watching it unfold, a new dream was formed in my heart โ€“ to share this beautiful life with others and teach them the lessons we’ve learned along the way. Welcome to our journey, friend. I am so glad you’re here.

  1. Such a feel-good video! I've been getting my son out in the garden as much as I can and he now loves seeing things grow. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Now, I'm trying to convince myself that I don't need another planter.

  2. I love Ben (your shadow) and Lulu ( his shadow)!! ๐Ÿ˜Š. And Bear ( your shadow)!! ๐Ÿ˜Š. Hehe. Just kidding. I love you all!!๐Ÿค—๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™โค๏ธโค๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™. God bless.

  3. Ben, that bouquet was so beautiful it could be a wedding bouquet ๐Ÿ’ ๐Ÿ˜

  4. I had to chuckle when Benjamin spit the seed out and planted the seed, ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ I thought to myself, " well he didn't fall far from the apple tree ( thinking of you) and again when he picked, and made a beautiful arrangement of flowers, I say way to go Jess, not only you're a great teacher to your children, but a hole lot of us ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Šโค

  5. Oh Jess a friend is one of the most beautiful Florist & Bens arrangement is just as good as her Students- Just Beautiful. Cheers Denise- Australia

  6. Always sweet. We bought our first Greenstalk this past Spring and I have really enjoyed it. We put it on our back porch that is covered with clear ripple fiberglass, set where it would get some natural light. It did pretty well, but I'm thinking it should be out in full sun. My sage loved it. Thanks for the code.

  7. Oh be still my heart!

    Ben with his flowers is just too much!
    ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

  8. The way your greenstalks are situated on the ground it looks like a flower and then i imagined several of them in a row staggered and maybe made to be different sizes with skinny swervy pathways coming from a main sidewalk..so that it looks like a patch of flowers from an aerial shot…Flowers are a special kind of blessing from our creator!! God Bless!!

  9. Ben talking about the next video: โ€œIโ€™ll be there, and Lulu!โ€ as heโ€™s holding his bouquet and trying not to trip on his new best friend โค my heart! Please never stop being so precious, Benjamin!

  10. The best! loving the flower loving post. love. love that you let him pick flowers and do what he wanted,, and then teach with basil. or whatever that was… soooooo good to encourage and help creative that kids express their energy of who they are… I just love it all.. Happy Birthday!

  11. Sweet Ben, beautiful ๐ŸŒผ flower arrangement. Such a cool thing for a young boy to do…. which will bless his momma and daddy's soul for years to come.๐Ÿ˜Š

  12. I love every time you mention the storage tote lettuce video! Thatโ€™s the video that brought me to your channel. Iโ€™m so thankful it brought me to you and your love for the garden has taught me so much. Thank you for sharing your passion โค

  13. Hello Jess and Miah and family. Holy moly Ben is getting big and is cute. Have a good day God Bless from a viewer in Toronto Ontario Canada

  14. Soil suggestions for the greenstalks? Been struggling with mine a little. Hard to find ones without chunk that clogs.

  15. I hope my Meyer Lemon that died back in the St. Valentine's Day massacre Freeze of 2021 comes back as a bitter orange! That would be great on the kitchen, or behind the bar!!!!!

  16. That's a life lesson right there!:

    Never miss the opportunity to bring natural beauty into your home!

    Always be picking flowers and fresh produce and bring it inside the home!!!

  17. Hey Jess and Ben,you didn't get "it"to Bad ๐Ÿ‘.

    You look nice,I hope your feeling better ๐Ÿฆ.
    JO JO IN VT ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ๐Ÿ’จ๐ŸŽƒ

  18. I love seeing Ben in the garden with you, he's such a gardener already… it makes my heart happy!

  19. You look adorable! Love your outfit! โค๏ธ
    Always love me some mommy and Ben gardening videos ๐Ÿ™‚

  20. Jess, your scarf is sooo beautiful and fits you perfectly! <3
    I have to ask – is Lulu's tail docked? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Is it a standard procedure in the US?
