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 – 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. Your garden looks wonderful! I’m a month behind you and you make me excited for what’s coming!!

  2. I keep trying to grow radishes and turnips but they only produce the tops. Idk what I'm doing wrong.

  3. My very first gardening memories were me helping my babysitter water her flowers each morning before I was school age. She had a couple little concrete frog statues in her yard. πŸ’“ Thank you for this beautiful video and for reminding me of those beautiful memories. πŸ₯°

  4. I am anxious for our first ripe tomato. Have some set on but zone 7b, 4547' elevation with the thunderstorms we've been having, it looks like it will be a while yet. Strawberries are ripening. If the hail does not decimate or rain come at the wrong time, it looks like we might have the first cherry harvest in some years. Have been battling aphids on sick trees for years but maybe, I am gaining ground with regenerative soil practices.

  5. What a treat to see all the boys involved in the garden. They had a great time, I'd like to see more of them and get to know them more.

  6. We missed you!! The garden is looking fabulous, and your boys are so adorable. Go hang out with them and enjoy your evening!

  7. Such a lovely home and lifestyle! I’m still hoping one day we will have lots of land! But just for now we have 2 allotments ducks and chickens

  8. Best sound from the trio of boys ending the video with you the same way β€œwe bless you, till next time!” Such precious angels and their lovely momma!! Xoxo ❀️

  9. Bug repellent and fertilizer. Bunny Pee. Black Gold. Dilute 20 to 1 with water. Had bugs allll over my taters. Sprayed it and they were all gone the next day

  10. I love watching you with your boys…just warms my heart <3 I hope in 10 years that you are still doing youtube so that we can get reactions of the older boys looking at their younger selves in these videos. You are such an amazing parent. The world needs more people like you my darling. Thank you for all that you do. Much love Tamara

  11. Strawberry shortcake is nice with whip cream and sqash is πŸ˜‹πŸ™πŸ’•πŸ₯°

  12. I wish my zucchini and yellow squash looked like that. Mine are still on the small side. But this is my first year growing, So I am hoping to get better. Also started a YouTube channel so I will be able to compare!
    But you are who got me gardening! I only hope to be as good as you someday! 😊❀

  13. If the little ones are OK, garden comes second when a mom has been away for a few days.

    Saying that, it’s obvious your young men missed you.

    I’d dig up everything that has potato pests. Unless you need the plants as sacrifice hosts to invite the JP predators in. Tbh, Jess. Get the potatoes up. There’s plenty of farmers around using pesticides that will guarantee sacks of tatts over the winter. Maybe you’ll have a second chance of harvesting potatoes planted in a few weeks.

    Daniel is coming to live with y’all?
