HOW MUCH FOOD CAN I GROW in my Zone 6 BACKYARD GARDEN? This is the FINAL VIDEO in the series! I show what I harvested in OCTOBER and I total up HOW MANY POUNDS I ended up growing FOR THE WHOLE SEASON!! My goal was to grow 1000 pounds of produce this year. Did I make it? Who guessed the closest weight? I also look at some prices for the produce I grew compared to store costs. It’s been a long season but I can’t wait to reveal what the FINAL TALLY IS!

I have been wondering where you were I was getting worried! (Carrie Newsome here) started a channel this week so name changed. Not very good videos yet just starting 😂
Well…they say better late than never, right? I could have called the video "Beans take a long time to dry and other delays…" 🤣 I needed an extended break for all sorts of reasons that kept coming up but I managed to get this video sorted out finally! What a great garden season! It was great sharing it with all of you 🧡 I hope you enjoy this final installment! Did I make it to 1000lbs?? It's not long now before I'll be starting seeds inside again…
Soooo happy to see you’re back and ok, was worried. I even left a comment on your FB page to check in on you. I know so many people who are sick with CV so I was praying you weren’t another one of them! ❤️
Glad to see you are back! My garden was a disaster this year. Heat and deer was too much. Glad to see yours produced. Now we get to see some meals you cook. By the way, I’ve been seeing more and more people using the greens from the leeks. They dry them then grind them into a powder. I want to try it!
Beautiful backyard time harvest and re plant nice potato and beans enjoy harvesting
I started to write down and document the amounts this year, but I am not as dedicated as you.. future goals!!
I'm so glad to see your smiling face again, I was a bit concerned. Thank you for the fireworks lol. I'm rewatching your No spend challenge right now so I can get ideas for my own challenge. I plan to rewatch all of your challenge videos to help me save some money. Take care and tell Mr. Wanders we missed him too.
Nice haul even if it is down from previous years! 😁
I, too, was really worried. I though you might have decided not to do more YouTube videos. Your my favorite to watch, so that was very concerning 😟! Really glad your back. 😊
Thank you so much for doing it. It was really interesting. Do u know how much u spent on the garden? I bet u got 3 to 5 thousand dollar worth out of the garden.
