"Plant thieves will be composted!" is one of my favorite garden signs.
A garden is a great idea, especially a community type garden such as this. Sounds like many people have gardens at home which means extra produce could go to a soup kitchen to help the homeless. Perhaps bringing someone in to teach staff how to can produce would be something else you could do for the team, as canning has not been passed down between families like it used to be.
As you already have the fishies, why don't you make a aquaponic system (for the vegetable garden)? Thanks for the videos!
Seems to be a fun great idea/project! Everyone eats! "Hoeing ain't easy"
You guys are killing it with the new vlog format. Keep up the good work.
So here's a logical extension…Have a "Canning Days". Having grown all the component veggies (Tomatoes, jalapeno, onions, cilantro, garlic, parsley, etc) all summer, have a fall canning day(s) and make salsa and pasta sauce and pickles! Make a party of it…the biggest reason most of us don't can more, is the "ramp-up" – and almost as bad – THE HEAT in the kitchen…y'all could have have a heck of a set up under the big awning!
You should be pushing this idea out and marketing it harder for the western/south west USA

What an awesome idea! Any produce that can’t be utilized by the people at Aquascape could be donated to a local food bank! 👏👍💖🙋♀️🇨🇱
Invest in a mic
Looks like its going to be a huge veggie garden, be sure to leave enough walkway space between beds to be able to get a cart or wheelbarrow in there.
why not do a aquaponics system as you guy have all the fish …. the same way the bio flirt plants uses the fish wast the plants in the aquaponics can use the fish wast to grown veggies an other crops
There's nothing better than finding out that some of your fave YouTube channels are going to be collaborating.❤ Looking forward to the progression of this garden area!
Awesome! Grow baby grow! How about. No weeds allowed.
Looking forward for the ride and everything you guys touch and build is heaven.
Be sure to add a composting area. The compost made from this garden can add lots of nutrients to the planters.
Will you use AquaBlox for the cistern?
whop whoop, as us English say 'right up my alley' perfect veggies, flowers, water and looking beautiful cant wait to watch. Thank you all at TA
Good idea but by knowing the number of employees it looks small.
Better plan would be going for aquaponics system with greenhouse since you are based in Chicago, you can control the temperature, this way you can have harvest year round and get to enjoy source of protein in the form of fish.
Nice work!!!
Lovin it!
This will end up being a gathering spot for your employees and their families! Make sure that it is wheelchair accessible, so that everyone can enjoy it. I have to say, considering the amount of area you have, this looks small, both the cottage and the beds. I would build it as big as possible, knowing that you’ll have room to accommodate more people as the interest grows.
Here’s a slogan for you, “there will be no weeding during cocktail hour”
You guys always have so much going on!! I love following them with this video format. Looking forward for the EPIC collaboration!!
Can't wait to see the reveal!
