My husband and I are on 18 acres and 10 are pasture. We maintain it all by ourselves and are in our 60’s. We have 6 raised garden beds in our enclosed garden, 8 huge flower beds around the house, 10 chickens/ coop, cows, a green house, 2 barns, a garage and a 2 acre pond. We do not make videos however, but it is a full time job to maintain our property! We have raised 3 children on this property and now are the grandparents of 7 grandchildren that love our farm! I feel so blessed to get to live this life we have built on this land! Farm life is the Best Life!

[@lindaga820]

What a blessing to have those grandchildren !!!

That sounds amazingly beautiful and I wish you would do videos so we can enjoy your property. God bless you both always. 🙏 ❤️

🥀 I've always wondered, what was the tall flowering hedge next to the spruce tree? it was part of the privet hedge around Versailles!! I began to watch tours in 2020, have watched all videos since then. Its truly amazing, seeing a beautiful transformation , from an already beautiful garden, to another stunning garden.🥀

[@kdean9537]

Oh my gosh...time really does fly...I didn't realize how long I've been watching your channel. I remember when it popped up as a suggestion, that I saw this woman out in a dirt field digging holes and planting, I thought okay...my interest was peaked. You both are just amazing and a blessing to watch, not only your garden grown, but your beautiful family! Really well done on the before and after shots...this video was beautifully edited, I can't imagine the time it took to edit it, so thank you very much for all your hard work, it is very much appreciated! Sorry for such a long comment, but I feel so blessed to have found your channel & I tell my children and anyone else who will listen about it! Have a beautiful rest of the week! Lots of love and appreciation. Kathy x Ontario, Canada

OMG you guys included footage of the first video of yours i ever watched, the circle around the rams head urn in the versailles garden!! i almost got emotional for a bit there, thinking how much amazing work you've done since then, and how far i've come since then. i wasn't even into gardening when i watched it, meanwhile now i'm pursuing a career in native landscaping/restoration. I could never thank you guys enough for how much you've been instrumental in my plant journey ever since i started watching when i was 17-18 to now (25) and beyond. does make me wonder, do you ever think about the wonderful influence you've had online? like to people like me or really anyone who at the start of watching didn't even garden themselves, yet now gardening is their life?

I think your property was beautiful when you bought it, but you've transformed it magnificently into everyone's dream home. I love this journey of progress.

[@nindyhunt]

I've been here since 2015 when you lived next door to Aaron's mom and dad. I've watched your videos faithfully each morning and have rejoiced with excitement at each new space and of course your 2 visits to the hospital when you had Benjamin and Samantha Grace. It's been an incredible journey to be on with you both. Loved this video today. Thank you all for making this such a fun adventure.

[@jgg7377]

My mind is blown away at how much you have actually accomplished in the few years that you have been here. You and Aaron should be very very proud of yourselves , you have turned a overgrown, diseased tree/bush ridden, not make any sense areas into something SOOO BEAUTIFUL and a wonderful place for you and your children to grow up call home 🏡 I can’t even imagine what it will Look 👀 like in the next 8 years , and I’m hear for it! Love you and your channel so much, I have learned a ton about gardening and so much more!, so Thank You!!! So keep those videos coming and let’s all learn and GROW together!!! 🫶💪

[@ceciliadelgado6899]

The amount of work to develop all 26 areas is mind boggling! And it all looks so lovely. Congratulations to you and Aaron on this daunting achievement. Thanks so much for taking us along.

[@chrissihr1031]

I’ve always had an easy time of mentally navigating your gardens thanks to your garden tours. In fact, I think a garden tour that began in what was still your new-ish vegetable garden back in 2020 is how I originally found your channel. The work you’ve put into it since then is mind-boggling to me, as a gardener with chronic pain and limitations on my mobility. Thank you for sharing so much of it, especially for those of us who can’t always garden with our hearts the way we’d like. 😄❤

[@be_you2023]

Hello Laura and Aaron, Thank you for making this video, kudos to the people that called for this video; it’s the video I didn’t know I needed 😬. Firstly, I would like to say what an amazing job you have done in growing your business, all the hard work has paid off from a bystander point of view. Secondly, it gave me joy to see the progress you made has created efficiencies and comfort for you, as I hope you are around for a long time. Thirdly, I wish you continued success in all you do, you deserve it. Lastly, if you want to get rid of the name “Versailles Garden” may I suggest, because of its proximity to your house the “Colonnade” or “Portico” garden? Great video!

[@lm8006]

Portico garden was what popped into my head as well. Retains a “formal” name & provides orientation with respect to the house.

[@annehedlund7333]

Nope! Versailles forever!

I really like that idea.

[@ninnornaranjo8877]

This must have been so much work to pull footage together and edit. Such a great job! I really appreciated the lighted highlights on the drone footage when calling out the different sections. Thank you for sharing. I’ve learned so much from you all over the last five years of watching. Mostly though I’ve become more comfortable with just going for it in my garden and not being afraid to ‘mess it up’. Thank you!

[@GrammyinColorado]

Thank you for taking the time and effort to put this overview together for us all. I'm glad you also found it fun to look back and see the absolutely incredible changes and progress in your property! It has been such a beautiful, interesting journey that you have taken us on thus far! Thank you again!!

[@kariannep1548]

You are a rockstar as far as I’m concerned. I love watching you. I have a tiny yard and at 72 after suffering a broken arm, I got a Orange Glory Maple, some Montaugh Daisies, grass, Russian Sage and 17 shrubs. I eliminated half the lawn. This year I’m breaking up my perennials to spread and give to family and friends. You inspire me. I find no matter how upset I may be by things in life, all I need is to work in my yard and it all disappears. ❤

[@seriouslyreally5413]

What your channel has provided us is a continuous source of vision and courage to consider the possibility of scale. Most homeowners are provided with the contractor's special of anemic subdivision lawn that runs up from a public sidewalk to a 3ft wide foundational border planted with the token shrubs of mugo pine, juniper tams, and the one or two ill-suited tea rose or Stella d'Oro daylillies and feel sad and depressed that we don't feel inspired to go & spend some time outside. Your inspiration had been to look at stuff and have the courage that if you don't like it, even a nice, well maintained, established landscape, that you can tear it out and make it what you truly love. Its the hardscape that is the most expensive and hardest to envision; the patios and stone walls, the hedges and fountains. Thank you for the courage. ❤

[@MyBackyardScience]

It's really incredible to have watched the evolution of your property into what it has become today! It's magnificent! 🙂

[@Daymickey]

I’ve been with you guys for every single one of these changes. I actually get attached to certain areas. I miss the garden by the old pallet walkway for example. You’ve inspired me so much over the years. It feels like you’re part my online family. 😊

Your show is so therapeutic!!!!!!!

It’s been a great journey watching you both as I have developed my garden. So much knowledge you have passed on and helped me with. Also to say that during the Covid years when here in Melbourne Australia we had two years of insane lockdowns… you guys were almost wholly responsible for helping me through it and saving my sanity! Can’t wait to look back in 5 years time again!!!

I live in Ontario Canada and came.across your videos and love how well spoken and honest and fun you both are. What a gorgeous place. Thanks for sharing your skills and experience.

[@dannnunn4821]

I am not a commenter, but the home and garden you guys have built is just beyond words. I get tears in my eyes with almost every video. My homesite is on 2 acres, and I have a section of pasture/farm land that's been in my family for 5 generations. My husband and I took it over in 2015 and took the opposite approach; starting with remodeling of the home and moving to the landscape last. I am blessed to have a 50 x 100' greenhouse (not a Hartley-I cannot even dare to dream); but the work and love you've built is more than an inspiration. I have incorporated many items from your videos, and we're installing the 4x6 post/hoselinks all around the property this spring (I have them in the greenhouse already, but seeing your take on the 360 degree outdoor swivel is just a beautiful thing!). I just wanted to thank you and commend your dedication and work. Thank God every single day for your beautiful family-every single member, and all the many blessings bestowed upon you!

[@barbb.9489]

I think it’s unbelievable what you’ve basically accomplished in 3+ short years with design. Construction, etc. plus raising a young family.

Watching this reminds me how fluid time really is. Memories start to blend together, and the seasons of life really move quickly. You guys really have made, on top of beautiful gardens, a very special time capsule for your children and future grandchildren to have.

How amazing!♡ When I have time, I am still (binge) watching old videos prior to when I became a devoted follower of Garden Answer in 2019. This past weekend, I watched "September Garden Tour 2017" Laura talked about future plans for what is now the Pond Garden. She was wanting to turn that area into a pasture with horses and chickens, etc (when the chicken coop was still a tool shed) and Aaron wanted to plant it up differently. I love what it has become, and your plan for that area next spring. It's amazing to watch back where you started and how far you've come. The greatest changes you have made are your beautiful children.♡ May your family continue to be blessed for many years to come. Thank you for taking us along on your journey ♡

I wish I had a Paul and Bethany and could afford a Pedro to build things for me. I don’t even have an Aaron the most my hubby will do is pick up a load of soil if I nag him for months to do it.

[@sherylemoore8626]

What a walk down memory lane! Loved listening to the two of you discuss the different parts of the garden and how each one came to be. I have longed for a complete "sky view" of the property. It was marvelous. I am taking bets that the "dirt lands" will forever be "the dirt lands." Just like Versailles, nothing else will ever seem quite right. I think Versailles is a sweet name for that patch of garden, it has aspirations! We had a shed in our back yard that morphed into a two story building, affectionately know as the "shanty." Over the years, it has continued to grow and now houses a two bedroom guest house. We have tried to shift to "guest house" over "shanty" but it fails to stick. So our guest house has taken on a whimsical and contrarian name. So be it.

Beautiful gardens ...How much I have learned from all of these episodes, I'm looking forward to spring of 2024 to see what has emerged from all the fall and winter plantings (trees, bulbs, etc). Age (80 yrs) has crept up on me and I can only dream of what I would love to accomplish. Unfortunately gardening is on hold for a while... Nevertheless your videos get me through my morning coffee hour (+). Last year I was a winner of the garden link hose but neglected to claim my prize as I am computer illiterate and didn't check in in time. It's going to be a BEAUTIFL spring. Loving every episode of your magic touch, a hard working couple (and helpers) and loving Family. You two are the perfect example of what the American Family life should and can be. Aaron does a magnificent filming job and captures each episode with matching music composition . Anxious to see how the Little Red Barn develops. My how your children are going to love this acreage. The serene winter and snowy videos are so magical. See you tomorrow...I'll put the coffee on! 🥰💞 Thank you from Carole Smialowicz......

And gardens are all about change. Can't believe that B is so tall. And he's working with bees or aliens now? I've been away too too long, this show was like a salve for me today. Seeds grow. Views change. Got to tend what needs tending. I appreciate change (peaceful, orderly change) & I love how L *speaks* about gardening. About how sometimes you have to give up on something you initially loved. It's okay, New life forms. Perspective (particularly the ones A shot from the drone!) Climate. Adaptability. Care, curiosity & commitment. Effort + more effort = Ah-may-ZING rewards.

Had a very reputable service owned by a friend that was removing a tree a couple houses down. A young man died when he removed his hat to put one of those frog cloths under his hat. When the tree went down, it hit another branch from another tree that struck the young man. That limb was less than four inches in diameter. The owner of the tree service ended up closing his business because he constantly worried about his guys. You were so right to get it cleared out immediately.

Thank you thank you thank you for doing this! I don't know how many times I've stopped your videos and tried to figure out where the chicken coop is in reference to the gazebo or the fireplace area and just when I'd think I had it I'd look at an overhead and get twisted up again. I know I'll still get turned around but this was really helpful! You've done so much and should be so proud of yourselves. Not only do you work so hard and take us all along with you, you do it with such grace. It's a thing of beauty to behold. Thank you!

[@angelwolfe6728]

This was a fun chat about how far you have come in transforming your space. Its a dreamy place all around. Can’t wait to see the stream to the pond area! 🙌 beautiful job guys!

[@heatherw.2751]

I loved this video! I’ve been following along since the townhouse days and often forget how far you’ve come! It was a nice trip down memory lane. And y’all should be proud of what you’ve accomplished! You have created a gorgeous home for yourselves and a wonderful way to make a living for others! Not to mention the daily reprieve from all the crazy the world has thrown at us as of late. Thank you for sharing the journey with us all! It has become a part of my daily routine that I would sorely miss if it was to go away! Thank you, thank you!!! ❤️

[@christiemay4444]

So beautiful! Thank you for this video, as it is not only a beautiful piece of property, but now we can visualize exactly where you are. Love the big green "front yard." It is serene looking, and what a treasure for your children to make life long memories. You two have made such a beautiful and welcoming home. It's always such a joy to watch all your videos! Thank you!

Wow, we bought our house in 2019, not sure I’ve finished painting a single room, let alone major endeavors! Hats off, I should be taking notes, but alas I think I will have a glass of wine instead.

[@sheiladouglas5258]

Beautiful video! You and Aaron have done an amazing job of transforming your property into something that is just spectacular. ❤

[@alw5101]

I’ve gotta say The Pallet Walkway if still my Absolute Fav! So much I had to have one myself!🥰👍

[@guntaweiland3428]

I’ve been watching almost since you moved onto this property, and have marveled at what you’ve accomplished. Even with help, it’s a lot of work, and Aaron’s a magician putting the videos together. This is the good side of “reality media”. Thank you.

[@tonigardella4165]

I remember your journey from then to now , wow . To say you have made an incredible garden is an understatement !!! I’m so glad you took us along . I remember watching the video when the branch of the tree came down !

[@babieangels]

Amazing growth, for sure! Curious if you keep in touch with the previous owner or have they been around lately to see all the beautiful changes? Wishing you continued success! ❤️

[@PatriciaAShelton-no6cq]

They were an are friends with the previous owner. Growing up she had been in the home many times,never dreaming she would someday own it. She did a video of tye previous owners new home. It's an old Victorian home. It's beautiful. Not as much land and garden upkeep ,but staying true the Era, it does have a white picket fence, roses etc.

[@babieangels]

@@PatriciaAShelton-no6cq yes, I remember. Beautiful Christmas tour. But I was curious to recent interactions with all the new changes. 😊

[@joyces.9021]

If the root cellar stored food at one time, I can understand why there would be a lock on the outside.

[@jgwood10]

There was a lock on the inside! That was the question!

[@KC-bz7eb]

Wow, I just can not believe that it only took 4-5 years to have that kind of beautiful garden. I thought those gardens were at least over 8-10 years process. At least now I have some hope that my upcoming project to redesign my first home back yard garden can have potential in the near future. Thank you I always learn so much from your channel.

[@maryannemarais7777]

This was so fun to be reminded how it looked and what you and your team accomplished over the years. It is truly an amazing creation.

[@brendamoon2660]

Building a wall on a slant towards the higher dirt side is actually smart. That wall would have never budged.

[@vzeimen]

I've been following along since you lived in your last house and my jaw drops to see all the changes in one video. It's like watching children grow, you see the daily changes but when you look back at pictures from years prior, you just can't believe how much change there has been. I'm sure you guys are so proud of what you've built. So much creativity and hard work and such good entertainment.

[@seanaames6855]

Me, too! It's so fun to see all the progress!

[@GlacialRidgeHomestead]

That Hartley greenhouse is my dream!

[@marywilson7669]

Aaron should have been a golf course superintendent or a football stadium maintenance guy haha That’s is he likes to mow!

[@ariellelle]

Oh my gosh, I've just finished physical therapy school after 3 years and have compelty lost track of how much you guys have done! Planning on finally being able to give my yard some overdue TLC.

[@Fluffie11r]

Thank so much for taking the time to help the viewing audience understand the layout of your land. Lol sometimes I’ve felt like I needed a map like at the amusement parks to help guide me😂. For the most part, I just enjoy whatever particular area you are in at that moment and don’t worry about how it relates to the surrounding areas

[@andreagalda28]

I think you should add a big round raised water garden/container pond in the middle of your formal area near your greenhouse. Lots of marginal plants, some water lotus and lots of little medaka ricefish!

[@jancourtney9965]

This is magnificent to see how far you have come. "You should be proud of yourselves!" You have worked so hard. Thank you for letting us come on this journey with you. My number "1" KZbin channel love you guy's ❤❤

[@donna-ruthasher3148]

To see what you started with , and improved then expanded, and improved was amazing !! I can't even imagine . Congratulations to you both !! I'm encouraged to do more in my own yard and garden , thanks !! I'm excited to see what's next .

[@donna-ruthasher3148]

And , my name is Donna-Ruth Asher , lol it looks odd all ran together.

[@marynimocks6791]

You SHOULD be proud of your spectacular progress in creating such a lovely home for your family! Bravo! P.S. You might consider nailing down your actual land based on the newest survey, with a friendly but clarifying easement with your neighbor. Just an idea. 🙂

[@edcglassworks5771]

You are a Proverbs 31 girl if I ever saw one. Incredible what you and Aaron have done with that place.

[@darlenebennett85]

It would be nice if you could build a little cottage house on the new property for Paul.
