  1. Best videos I've found in yrs! My "kale" has been wildflower jellies, especially dandelion everything. Since making those jellies I have elevated so many allergies. And my other is mulberries! Best fruits ever! You get to eat the fruit, make tea from leaves, and i get to use the wood for my woodworking!

  2. Two years ago, I used the rain gutter grow method. Too much work. Last year, I did the straw bale method. Goot for peppers, eggplants and herbs but couldn't find bales this year. This year, I brought in soil to put over cardboard and mix with compost and peat moss to create mounds and another area I used the Ruth Stout method to grow potatoes. This year was less work up front. Setting it up this year was staggered but I feel it is hands down the way that I will have better successes in the future. The "just try it" method makes it worthy while.

  3. Awesome just saw The Hollars Tues Video and they ratted Miah out . So cool that he was able to go and help them wrap up the house interior before the baby gets here. Y'all Rock!!

  4. I love my layered no till beds. I am actually starting one bed this fall Ruth Stout method, a proven no till method that requires minimal work with great yield. Now that my other beds are mature enough I am going to use primarily Ruth Stout method. Nothing new about no till. 🙂

  5. Just preordered your book! So excited! I’m in Central AR area too so I know what you mean by the heat and humidity! I look forward to book signings!

  6. loved listening Thank you for all the tips. I didn't know what to do with all the random stuff coming out of that garden. Dehydrating them as you go and then make a soup. Thankfully you.

  7. Jessica! I would love to purchase a copy of your book, if nothing more than to support you and your family. Do you know if it will be available in New Zealand?

  8. I just preordered your book! So excited and happy for you! Watch your videos almost daily and learn so much. I am older, but if I had to do it all over again, would love to endeavor a life like you have with your sweet family. Blessings. Deanie from Murfreesboro, Tennessee!

  9. I don't know why, but I was pained by your response to the person who wondered if no till was a fad. I thought you came across as defensively ranting.
    On the bright side, I do enjoy your garden tours. How sweet to open up your home, garden and family up to us!
