Thanks for the kind words and support 🐕😁❤
Can you please do a video on how to plant, grow, trellis, harvest, store, basically take care of growing grapes?
Don't be afraid to grow a food forest in a forest.
Correction: it will feed the darn squirrels and deer! Oh, yeah and birds and horn worms.
Can you tell I am bitter, after working so hard to then not be even able to taste ONE peach out of two trees, and raspberries and blackberries and blueberries.
Loosing joy of gardening here.
Just found your channel. I'm in central NY and have deer,red fox, and groundhogs…how do I plant a food forest that will still leave some food for the humans?
Tuck❤❤❤
That garden looks amazing! You are such an inspiration, thank you!
Thst a lot of food! Keep up the good job…Amazing!
I wish I had his energy and excitement for something like he does with gardening 🙏🏼✌🏼🫶🏼
Oh Honey, you make it look so easy! 🤣🤣 I thoroughly enjoyed yet another video in your garden. ❤ You have mastered both the space and your growing conditions. I’m such a novice and I’m waaay too old to be such a beginner! Just harvested the end of my spring crops (well, I still have 3 containers of potatoes to harvest — grew them on the driveway!). No apple trees for me here in the south, but I’ve done well with all kinds of berries and figs. Turns out that I have my very own pecan tree and the muscadine grapes grow as weeds everywhere on my ppty. I’m better at growing cool weather crops…..so far. Keep spreading the fun, James! My dog doesn’t eat the veggies, but she’ll sure grab an egg from the hens when she finds one. Rabbits and hens are making some mighty fine fertilizer for me here in central NC.
james i love your channel! been watching for a couple years, but i always forget to ask, what do you do with all your extra food?? do you sell at a farmer's market? 🙂
So awsome always!! Thanks again for so much inspiration!!!
Most beautiful in your garden. Your plans and carring so good. Congratulations. I like very much and enjoyed in your garden.👌💐❣️❣️
Yay Tuck ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wanted ask, with so many grapes, apples, 20 variety of tomatoes, rows of cucumbers etc how do you process all of that food? Are you preserving it somehow? I’ve been watching for a while and just curious what you do with all your harvests?
You are an inspiration James. We are planting veggies closer and getting more from our backyard garden. Thank you.
What do you spray your fruit trees with? Mine have a fungus. Looking for something organic.
Started my Food Forest again (we moved 3 years ago) and it saves us so much on groceries. Next year we should be growing enough berries (all kinds) for a year. However, I can't seem to get big strawberries….
How did you get rid of the grass before you put the mulch down?
What do you do with your excess? Do you can, freeze, dry, etc.?
What about in the winter, minus 20 degrees?
James’ videos are like visiting your cousin who is crazy for gardening and he gets so excited to show you everything that he has growing! Your abundance is amazing.
How do you you water such a large number of plants?
Hubby and I have one acre here in East Texas. We’re building raised beds and have had 10 yards of premium raised bed mix for those and premium compost brought in to put in the garden. I’m so excited to plant my very first sweet potato slips in one of the raised beds. Two beds have corn, green beans zucchini and yellow squashes. Another bed has cucumber, bell pepper, radish and dill. I have a long row of cherry tomato varieties and mini San Marzo along a fence and asparagus in a corner bed. I’ll plant Purple hulls, black eyed peas, and pintos in the garden. I’ve planted lots of fruit trees and berry bushes as well. Praying for God to bless the fruits of our labors. 🙏🏻
