Awww, is that a Guardian dog? We are looking at adopting a 5 yr old alpha male Guardian, who needs a home, and won't eat our chickens and ducks ♡ He would be the solo pup here 🙂
I had a small urban garden this year and I lost my tomatoes to a hungry rat. I have a jack Russell that tells me when one is around and he is great a catching them but this one outsmarted us this year. Have a wonderful day!
We are in OR, and lost all our tomatoes, and peppers due to really late season frost, and early heat. 6 heirloom varieties we began indoor – gone so quickly 🙁
My tomatoes are all almost gone! Blight! I had tomatoes till frost and after last year… My beans were crap too!
I've heard of 2 acres per person to be fully sustainable. Sounds like a lot but some crops do take a lot of space, like squash and potatoes. What do you think? Love that Mr. Peaches! Congrats to Miss Maybelle! xoxo
Hi I am so blessed by your life's lessons , your so positive through sad things that happen on you homestead . You are a wonderful testimony for all people
I would keep seeds from the volunteer tomatoes.
Where my parents live in southwest CO a lot of the peoples gardens around there don't make it this year to well with the heat. My parents tomato plants didn't make it. They always go about 3 hours north of where they live and buy tomato, corn and peaches to can and freeze. I would enjoy just listening to you share your wisdom you have about homesteading.
My tomato production sucks this year too. Worst year so far.
Unless I'm wrong, you don't have pigs. Could I ask why not?
I don't know what's going on with tomatoes this year. I'm in Australia and we had the worst year for tomatoes.
Save seed from the blight free plants
Hey I was in Yancy County NC a few weeks ago. It is beautiful down there where you live miss Patera. Thanks for sharing, I will keep my volenteers next year.
Awesome video have you done viedo on geese. I am interested in meat geese. Sorry about tomatoes and blite
I thought i read in my past research that oak trees protect chestnut trees from blite could oak trees protect other plants from blite
This is my first time I put more work into my garden then my garden provided for me. I'm in Maryland and the funny weather in may and June really messed things up. Got 40 bushels of cucumbers, very little tomatoes and my squash plants only produced for one week.
Im in Marion county, Wv our whole community lost their gardens to major flooding last week. It's going to take a toll on many families.
My best tomato plant ever, grew out of my compost.
You are just priceless!
Hey! why don't you showed us the little calf?
we live near ducktown and would like to meet u tks
What do you do, with your hens when you wake up the next morning and you lost one?
We have had to supplement our garden every year. There's just no way that just the two of us can manage a garden big enough to supply our needs for a year. Especially this year with the husband having had double knee replacement surgery. So we go to the local U-Pick farms all season and pick, pick, pick. Then we come home and can, can, can 🙂
Great wisdom, as always! Love your place and it shows the work you lovingly have put into it. As you see in my avatar, our place is a little on the wild side, but are working to make it a mini-homestead. Not to sure about the animals, yet, but chickens hopefully. Praying for your hubby and hope he is doing better.
The weather has been dreadful here too. The tomatoes are nothing like last year, and the bean (my biggest crop next to tomatoes) didn't even get planted. Too many car breakdowns (we do our own repairs) and other immediate problems. I wish to be sustainable eventually, but I'm only one person who works ft. Blessings!
I feel a bit better. I thought it was just me; last year we had an abundance of tomatoes, this year, very few. I'm in MiddleTN.
Plants that come up like that may well be naturally resistant to that blight
did you say Delano?..great place!!!
Howdy
