Oh yes…I have a worm tower with worms I’ve bought on Amazon and they compost the most beautiful black gold for my garden. Kitchen waste into free worm castings ❤

[@kaydefreese7586]

Love watching your precious family work together in the garden.

[@easystreetwithjen]

I have had my worms in a simple large plastic food grade tote for 5 years. I recently upgraded their habitat using the same method I initially used. I love my pet worms because unlike other pets, they can be left at home without a pet sitter. ;)

Wishing every time I watch a video with Art and Bri, I could make time for a thoughtful comment. Enjoy these videos so much. They are played slowly often rewound multiple times thru out the video to rewatch multiple parts and to make the video last as long as possible. If I could find the words, I could go on and on about just how much this family touches my heart.❤️I would love to know your family. The simple heartwarming family videos take me back to the days of family television programming where kids played outside, learned about nature, explored the creeks, fished, swam and just learning more about the world we share. Bri, you can make grocery shopping entertaining ❤️ and Art you are one of the best teachers and so fun to watch your children learn so much about life. Together you make such an incredible team. You are living life with careful intention while immersing and taking notice of the world around you with your children almost always at your side. Of course, viewers do not see everything but I’m betting on both of you to be sitting on a porch together, one day far far into the future. It is my hope that your marriage will continue to be healed and that you continue to share a glimpse of your life as you continue to raise your family in the most natural ways. Thank you for sharing your story z❤️

Jumping even low and softly, is perfect for helping your lymphatic system to function fully! You should jump on it as little as 10 minutes a day Bri! It us fabulously fun and sooo good for everyone!

[@laurenmarie1379]

From Australia here, to save my summer crop I have had to get poles and cable wire to put a shade cloth over the entire garden area. It’s clipped onto the wire so you can pull it Back when it’s not too hot.

[@terrym.2264]

Ten years ago I told my husband I wanted worms for my birthday. 😂 He thought I was a little crazy. I started with a tower and worked up to four large totes. It is so satisfying to not wast my food scraps and to get black gold for my garden. I hope your kids enjoy the journey. 🐛 I have sat and looked through the compost and gotten excited when I find their eggs. It is really relaxing even therapeutic having a worms.

[@marycook9607]

Buying soil these days is really hard to get in bags. The soil isn't composted down enough. It is mostly forest products.

[@michaelafinley8741]

I used that and I am using that and it is working amazingly my plants did great

[@Maggieroselee]

Perfect solution ❤, that mulchy stuff looked like a great way to ammend the clay soil. ❤ Next year will be amazing in those beds.

[@vickiblizzard1001]

My grandkids are outgrowing their trampoline and don't use it much these days. In its heyday, we used to have a trampoline sprinkler that ran around the top of the netting and sprayed a fine mist. They all LOVED that, and it made mid-summer jumping much more fun. We also had LED lights around the top for evening jumping.

[@roseannejacquette9347]

I got a worm tower and an having a great time. Playing with it. If you watch 20 videos you will get 20 different ways to do it. It would be wonderful for the kids.

[@cindyfinn4845]

I swear by worms Bri and they love coffee grounds and banana peels. My dad kept a water trough and raised them the castings can be made into tea for gardens and fruit trees.

[@noramax2925]

[@thenodiggardener]

I've been vermicomposting for decades. I've moved down from massive heaps to a tower, and totes. I have Red wrigglers, European night crawlers, and Indian Blues. By far the Red Wrigglers are the best to have, and the calmest. Well, apart from Jerry the Rebel Houndini Worm I have. Jerry is an escape artist that gets all over my outbuilding. The worms like to know their territory, They are sensitive to vibrations, and water levels, so I've lost a lot of my Indian Blues to storm pressure fronts moving in, as they just vacate the premises. You'll need to grind down your egg shell to a powder for the worms. They use that as a grit, but also it helps keep the PH level correct in the bin, and it helps prevent protein poisoning. I'm just editing videos now, because I raided my whole tower for the castings to help repair the waterlogged damage to my beds. Your boys may be amused by some of my latest thumbnails in my vermicompost playlist. I've been having a bit of fun with them. I have had nothing but rain for months, so my plants have been drowning, whilst yours are scorched. I wish we could weather share, so I could have some of your sun, and you some of our rain.

[@laymanhomestead4711]

It is going to look so beautiful! You have such a gift with making lovely spaces ❤.

[@whiterose1972]

I went through the same thing. I figured it would be fine outdoors. I put it in my raised beds. Terrible idea. It’s really woody like mulch. I was surprised.

[@cindylidberg492]

I've had my worm tower for almost 3 years 🪱🪱🪱I love it. The compost is awesome !!

[@magen2271]

If you guys get strong winds and storms please stake the trampoline down to the ground. It was recommended that we do ours and we never got to it and the first storm took it away into our barb wire fence and ruined it. It flew really high. Just a suggestion. You guys might be fine. We had so much fun on ours that was similar. We plan to get another and stake it lol.

[@Judi-lm2fj]

You both have a gift for gardening.

[@TheShearinHomestead]

Can you link the worm tower? :) I LOVE the flower beds you created!! That's going to be so beautiful. 😍 We have a 16' trampoline just like that. I love the net, I never bought one for my kids without a net and I never would! Lol 🤣 I love the safety of the netting.

[@user-vx6tc8mv9y]

I have a worm bin, I love it, my worms love bananas and bananas skins and cucumber I like to chop things up small but also you can freeze all the skins peels and defrost when needed so nothing goes to waste.. Also when you get some castings you can add water to it say 1 cup of worm castings and fill a watering can and can uses as a feed. Also worm tea(liquid at teh bottom) some people say it does not help plants others say diluted it will feel plants, I use it diluted and its never harmed any plants. I use when planting new plants out. I love mine it’s fun, keep food covered in shredded leaves paper/cardboad to stop any flies getting to it. Love the fact they are like chickens and need crushed/powdered egg shells to break down food in their mouths.

[@Fawn62312]

A lot of soil is full of wood chips. They've been pushing it out quicker to meet the demand. You will want to fertilize because it's lacking nitrogen.

[@kitstah9741]

We're in southern Virginia and our garden was struggling too! I finally broke down and put shade cloth over the tomatoes and cucumbers. Twenty four hours later and the garden is SO HAPPY!💗

[@belieftransformation]

Fun visit with your family as you beautify the yards & gardens. Interesting about the worm bin. Your kids will love the trampoline & the pool looks like a lifesaver in the heat! Blessings to everyone 🤗🇨🇦

[@mneraasen224]

We finally got a good thunderstorm in Delaware last night. I’ve been putting one of those long sprinklers that arch on my pumpkins for an hour at a time. I don’t have native soil. It’s mostly sand. The builders scraped the lots of anything good🤦‍♀️

[@lisette-fr]

I am not an expert on worms, I only started this winter. Worms don't like heat. So don't put it in a hot garden. My worm hotel only started working after a month or two. I think there needs to be an ecological balance with various other organisms. Have fun with this new project.

[@rhondamckinley4373]

Thank you 😊

113 degrees in Oklahoma yesterday and a ton of us without power because of a storm the night before that had 85mph winds.

[@hollytaylor6799]

Hey, I just thought I would share that I had those exact same worries Bri, about trampolines without the padding and the enclosed net. I'm so glad the children have this now with all the safety features to make Mom comfortable along with the children so safe. A tip I'd love to share is add a sprinkler with the heat. The sprinkler makes it the perfect cool down exercise and entertainment for the children. Nobody gets hurt on it. I mean I have 13 grandchildren and daycare grandkids. Dad have grown up with a sprinkler added to the trampoline during the summer time and it is such a fun cool down addition to trampoline fun! Please just try it even if it sounds like it's going to be slippery or something, not an element you're going to have to be concerned with but if You're worried, then try it while you are supervising. Just an absolute blast for the kids that I had to share and hopefully they will get to enjoy it too.

[@maryturner3534]

Soil needs water year around even if there is no plants. You could add compost to your existing soil and water regularly. Your soil is anaerobic.

[@teresahaynes8757]

I bought that garden soil last year and nothing would grow well in it. It too was mulchy. I mixed potting soil with some of the garden soil to help but I made sure that I checked this year. Good luck and God bless.

[@quackersplatfarm]

Here in the northwest it completely stops raining in summer. My entire summer is spent dragging hoses and watering! Thankfully I'm on a good well. Praying you'll get rain soon!

[@Stapletonhomestread_Ohio]

That happened to me too. I think there is a shortage and there isn’t enough finished product to go around.

omg so my mom bought the same bags. she said I can use whatever I wanted. I thought ok, so I opened one of the bags and didnt even stick my hands in it because it looked like 90% mulch. It was a no from me.

[@joanneganon7157]

Thanks for being there Art🤗. The worms are very interesting. I use worm castings because I have so little room and its very cold here in winter so an outside farm would freeze🥴. JO JO IN VT 💞

I am sorry you are not getting any rain some places are getting too much rain and they are flooding. We need rain in parts of Oklahoma.

Broke power poles in half there were a lot of power outages. I love your garden . Prayers and Love 💞 From Oklahoma

Funny enough… My last job was a worm counter/cupper. The company I worked for supplied convenience stores with worms for fishing. At the end of our shift we were allowed to take the worm castings to use on our gardens. Bonus!

I have found that since Covid when so many ppl took up gardening all the baggec soil i buy, and ibought tons, is mostly mulch. Every brand at all the box stores was just shredded wood chips.

[@Mrgreenjeans578]

YES!!!! I bought same stuff and it wasn’t good at all and you’re right it is just like mulch not soil!! I don’t have a big garden but I have a big flower bed and some pots and totes with veggies and flowers and I planted some seed in that so called soil and they never came up , my totes with last years soil in them have tomatoes and they are doing great . So that soil is bad they should be ashamed of themselves for even selling it to the public

[@katehopkinsbrent5573]

Bri. I’ve been growing echinacea for years and they flower year two and to harvest the root- is third year. You should consider hydrangea ♥️ They’re beautiful- flowers every year as long as it’s not mowed over. It depends on the acidity of your soul as to colour. I have white, pink lilac and Deep purple. … Toxic if dogs chew it 🥴. I have huskys and they never bothered with it

[@tthomestead2763]

Your flowers will grow ok in that. Most flowers are basically weeds and will grow anywhere. I dont spend a lot on my flower beds either.

[@charlottedouglass8869]

It is hard to believe you have gardened for years, & didn’t know the difference between garden soil, & potting soil!

[@helenmeyer8343]

I have a bag of that. I had some beautiful basil that needed transplanting so I used that mulch soil. It was put in my lanai and something ate all the tops off. It has to be some kind of worm in that mulch soil. I could not figure out what ate them. It had to have come from that mulch soil. I have lost everything I have planted in it. It never dawned on me until now.

Love the fact they are like chickens and need crushed/powdered egg shells to break down food in their mouths. Mine first went to the top and tried to get out, until the bin settled and worms settle IE when things started breaking down. Should be damp not soaking wet and not dry so if you add cardboard get it damp first. They are getting used to a new enviroment that at the moment is not optimal as peelings etc have not started to breakdown which is what they like, give it a few weeks and they will settle. I always feed mine on one side of the bin so they dont get overwhelmed and have space to move away from food if they choose to.
