  1. It's been brought to my attention that I made an editing mistake and the end screen on this video is very long! I'm so sorry! I can't fix it without pulling the video down, and it would take overnight to re-upload it on my slow internet. So, I suppose you all can enjoy an extra five minutes of Daniel's beautiful guitar skills, or you can end the video with the intended content at 26:40! Thanks -Jess

  2. I just love your enthusiasm for life and your garden. your'e a joy to watch. You keep it real each video I watch. I haven't planted anything yet but, you are encouraging me to get out there and do it. Thanks for it all and I will continue to watch

  3. This is one of my favorites of your videos!!Thank you for showing the "hot mess" 🙂 This is my first year of planting a fall garden (zone 5b, upstate NY) and it's just as exciting as you promised!

  4. This is so embossing to see reality and how the cycles of life here in earth are needed! God is Good in all his Blessings Always! Your Roots and Refuge channel and videos have gotten me through months this spring! So grateful to have found you!

  5. The truth and reality of your hot mess garden (last year) let’s us all have so much more relaxed freedom to learn from and enjoy the hot messes in our own gardens. Thank you for sharing!

  6. It's good to see this is part of the natural process… thought it was because I did something wrong…do you cut the tomato plants off to pull them and leave the root in the ground?

  7. I love that you show your garden at all stages, the real thing…..not a make believe perfect garden, but the reality of life, the real cycles of growing a garden. Thank you!

  8. Please Jess, save seeds from that Fantastic Tabasco- along with the two-colored Sturgeon <3<3<3, and sell them! Can´t find them- love the Hot peppers- and I would love to buy seeds with you.I think we are many that would! God bless you and your family.

  9. I LOVE that speech at the end about being real and how it's tempting to only show perfection on social media and about how dying is just as important as sowing and harvesting. THANK YOU for being so real! This is why I love this channel!

  10. Is there anywhere I can buy some of the pink tip annie beans or peas?? I would like to do as many heirloom as possible… I will be trying to get purslane in my garden, Its so good in salads… I am waiting some what patiently for your gardening book into my mailbox!! So excited
