[@Sage_ria4629]

Yea these 2 are my fav 🤗 and I've got a roots thro charles 🤗👍🏼💚

[@soniarose1387]

Same here 😊

[@sharonholford]

Thank goodness it was the REAL King Charles. If it was the other fella I would've switched off!

[@khakim7308]

The hug from Charles when he saw you going in for a hug was so genuine and wholesome 🥲

[@wendycullingworth3879]

You had me worried for a moment when you said you were visiting king charles. What you really meant was you were visiting the REAL King Charles. Great collaboration 👍 a tempting recipie to try - I could almost taste it from here. 🍄🍃🍅🌱🍄🍃🍅

[@sharonholford]

Me too 😅

[@Phyllis-uc5ks]

Going barefoot is excellent! It grounds you which is so important. People were not meant to wear shoes and be separated from the earth which grounds you and makes you healthy mentally and physically.

[@jtsjtsm-b7c]

No thank you. I'd rather not chance getting hookworm or other parasites.

[@Rain-nw2vk]

Charles seems lovely 🥰 kind and intelligent a peaceful humble soul 😎

[@prubroughton1864]

Gardening is the cheapest psychiatrist there is. A very healing activity😊

[@eagledice2008]

King Charles Dowding is my King too love that guy

[@SiarlW]

It’s always Cawl when a Cymro makes it 😉 barefoot, no-dig, Gorgeous! I love how King 👑 Charles, as you call him, remembers the date he planted everything in his garden. He’s an international treasure.

[@1940sDream]

If Charles Dowding is struggling with a plant, that makes me feel better. I just try to keep learning & with my failures, I'm trying to adapt and expand. Thank you all!

[@ysobellagaylor1912]

anyone else love how enthusiastic he is hahahaha

[@KrystalKaleidoscope]

I really hope you have lots of people telling you, and that you fully embrace, how wonderful of an addition you are to the world. Your videos are peaceful and healing in themselves. Your mission and what you are sharing is inspirational and what our world needs more of.

[@Tiffany-Rose]

I love Charles, his energy is so pure 💚💚

[@emohtadi]

Charles' garden is such a dreamy oasis. Seeing the both of you interact is too cute, it should be a regular series xx

[@debbybrady1246]

I love King Charles’ garden. ❤

[@rachelmarikimber-live]

'We're at the carrot isle' ohh the best grocery store in the world is the garden store!! 😍💗🧚‍♂️

[@AnnRamgulam]

Good day your videos are so beautiful and educational

[@1nilu1]

This was a very Indian way of cooking the stew, with the different stages of cooking first the spices, then veggies and then the herbs. Very nice 😋

[@Danilyn_Livao]

Wow, this episode was amazing! 🌱🍅 Visiting such a beautiful, self-sufficient vegetable garden is so inspiring. The creativity and dedication behind it are incredible. Can’t wait to see more of these garden tours-so motivating! 🙌

[@yahkhaifarms8372]

Two of my favorite channels together thank you so much

[@whisperingbotanicals5304]

Omg I LOVE Charles Dowding! What an amazing collab this is. Im so happy :)

[@Thankful_.]

“Now we’re in the carrots aisle…” AND “I feel like I’m getting a foot massage!” Those are My two most favorite lines from this video! I’m so intrigued! What a beautiful garden! This video is a soup-pot of knowledge! I dream of having a garden like this! I’ve shared my little no dig garden, made from mostly upcycled materials on my small YT page. Thank you for being an inspiration! I look forward to watching many more of your inspiration videos!

[@dawnteskey3259]

That was a lovely video to watch, and inspiring!

[@snippetsofinconvenienttruth]

OMG Thank goodness You had me for a while. I am with you on this Charles So funny. Love it 😂

[@MissCosicosa]

Wow! Two masters who do know everything about birth, life and second life of the vegetables! The wisest gardener and the best vegan chief ❤️ can’t wait to watch this film

[@lilaclilly198]

This was a real treat! And a feast for the eyes. Watch ing you and Gaz sharing experiences and cooking with home grown produce! Doesn’t get any better 🥰🤗🙏🏼

[@tamrahawkes3170]

Love when you cook!

[@benmenneken1854]

Somehow this video touched me. Thank you for your incredibly beautiful content, just rediscovered it after some years :)

[@theresamarie1379]

I lost count, but I think it was 20 different plants! That's nearly a weeks requirement for health in one dish! Awesome! Looks soooo tasty. Can't wait to move back down south to grow veggies like that. Ours have been shocking failures in the Midlands this year. Wonderfully inspiring video! Thanks Gaz.

[@viviancovington7813]

Gaz, I just have to tell you I planted my first pot of flowers today and am so excited! Thanks for the motivation! 😊❤🌺🌼🪴

[@DValentine-lp3yr]

Does anybody else wish Mr Oakley would do a series on meals which fulfil the Dr Greger Daily Dozen using fruit and vegetables which are in season?

[@tashaking8907]

It looks wonderful.

[@laurafruhwirth5913]

Thank u so much for sharing 🎉

[@justmandybryant]

Wow each video feels like a warm hug!

[@AnnaKnoblich]

So wonderful, picking up own grown food in the garden. It is like a dream. So relaxing to watch your videos.🥰

[@kerrymichelle1]

So wholesome and natural, I love the fact that the stew didn't get drowned out by strong spices, every single vege and herb made it's own star of the show, thank you Gaz

[@tanyajasiecki3722]

So inspiring!

[@kit.indiana]

I'm glad it's not just me that had a slightly rubbish year in the garden.

[@thomgabites5578]

Always an inspiration. Thank you!

[@FromGardentoTableV]

I love King Charles’ garden.

[@lindsiholland81]

Fantastic! I wish I could just hop barefoot through the screen and hang out with both of the kings!

[@rushvatte]

This makes me so happy ❤

[@Balancinglife]

Absolutely awesome video! Inspiring.

[@pennygrimes8425]

Amazing video, thank you, and already looking forward to your next visit with Charles 🙏 You and Tom are the dream team, brilliant combination of skills and talents!

[@elsdriessen4125]

My favoriet you tubers, got to love them! WE want more! ❤

[@willowberry8719]

Very lovely video. Definitely inspired to make stew from scratch 🍲

[@rubygray7749]

I love your kitchen!! And your portable kitchen too. I think you should visit Charles more often, and make a seasonal meal from his garden. Autumn, winter, spring, summer. I'd have added a cup of "shellies" (podded Czar beans) to the stew, and a garnish of those tasty discarded potato skins, crisply fried.

[@gawain8000]

Inspiring

[@BATgirl57]

Fabulous love stew from an amazing garden shared between two lovely human beans!🫘😍😘🥰 Keep ‘em comin’ sweet Gaz!🙏

[@KokoraLife]

40 years! Congratulations!!

[@CharlesDowding-c5t]

Oooh tastes of summer - depth and boldness!! A lovely reminder of your visit and the great editing too

[@soniarose1387]

The Italians usually take out the pistils (small stalks with a yellow tops inside the zucchini flower) out, coz they say they are bitter. That’s what I have been taught while living in Italy. Not sure if it’s true though. Just thought I’d mention 😊. Always love seeing Gaz and Charles together 💕

[@karenr7931]

Simple cooking is the best. The dish was beautiful. Charles was devouring it!! Thanks for keeping us inspired.

[@SMRetired]

Thankyou so much for this, I smiled the whole way through the video 🙂 Ive bought the book for my daughter in law for Christmas, though will give it to her early so she can make the most of it in the festive season 🙂xxx

[@aurorapang3530]

Wow! Love that vege garden, n a stew from the garden

[@ArandenaHerbalist]

What a beautiful video! So inspiring, as I'm coming from a place of learning to grow all these crops, but I don't know how to cook very well! It's so great to see the food coming straight from the garden and learn more about how to work with them that way. Been a big fan of Charles' channel and learning from him for a long time, thanks for spreading no-dig ways to more people!

[@1940sDream]

That celery is glorious. Ok, I won't give up. Will keep trying!

[@ligiasommers]

Amazing! Congratulations!!! You deserve all the accolades 🎉👏🏻🙏🏻🥂👑

[@TurianShepard]

Brilliant collab! It’d be the absolute dream for me to have a plot of land like this to grow loads of my own food! Here’s hoping one day it happens!

[@merfamilyasanagallery]

Awesomeness in my morning! Two amazing lights sharing the gift that keeps giving. Thank you both for sharing the knowledge 🫶🏽🪴🫶🏽

[@marciahamilton7647]

Lovely content! My 2 favorite gardeners.

[@tinachilcott6929]

Can I just say I absolutely love your content. Your passion and love for food and health is next level. So so inspiring. Thanks for sharing such wonderful content 😊

[@MongTonk]

Oohh looove Charlesss ❤❤❤

[@jkdruid]

Two beautiful souls !thank tou.You are both so inspiring.

[@jaycee157]

Thanks so much for sharing this lovely video. So glad that you came to my country recently. Hope you had a good time and will come back soon. I really enjoy your videos.

[@tesswilkinson7742]

There is nothing better than being barefoot in the garden. To then harvest and eat fresh, grown vegetables and herbs from your garden. My mouth was salivating watching this 😋 I also agree with the mushrooms, Gaz. They are one of my absolute favourite veges. We are at the end of spring here in Australia, but we are fortunate enough to be able to grow just about everything year round because we live in sunny Queensland.

[@prettymayuricostumescreati3233]

And your new book is a must have honestly.highly recommend

[@elfiefae]

Love seeing you guys together. So warming & wholesome! Like the soup🤗

[@newenergyawakening]

Yum!!! Thank you so much for showing a new, delicious way of creating veggie stew (one of my favourite meals).

[@RichardTaylorgardening]

Brilliant interview my very 1st memory was layering newspaper on my grandads beds aged 3 so over half a century no dig now as always happy gardening Richardx

[@nicknamemichael8614]

Absolutes Dreamteam! 💚

[@NadyaKing-p7h]

Lovely - and very much my style as well!! Garden royalty 👑 I'm lucky to be in W Oregon, with veg year round, and farmers market for organic goodies i don't grow. And aim for a good amount daily. A Gardeners Meal indeed!

[@DenisebNY]

Hi Gaz. I've started watching your contents and I find them very interesting. My daughter came and saw me watching your videos, and she said, "Mom, I didn't know you watch Gaz, I have his book", and sure enough, she showed me your book. Now, I will be trying a few new menus. Best wishes in your endeavors.

[@StarCat616]

This was super cool ❤.

[@НатальяКоробко-к9ъ]

Полностью не поймёшь пока не начнёшь жить на природе!!! Вы вдохновили приготовить крем для лица и тела!!! Буду пробовать❤❤

[@LiamBushrod]

[@peterandroy]

Lovely video Gaz, informative and full of great tips. Regards, Peter & Roy (South Africa)

[@YourGreenLady]

Hello my dear Gaz, Elephant garlic is actually not garlic at all... it is actually a leek but many times mistaken for garlic.... Im sure that is where the onion flavor is coming from. I hope this little tid bit of info helps you as you continue to learn and grow on this gardening journey. Thank you for always sharing these delicious recipes they are truly inspiring and you and the crew are always giving me a good laugh.

[@phoenixmimesis7692]

Elephant garlic is an onion. So cool!

[@DValentine-lp3yr]

Wow - two of my favourite KZbinrs in one video!

[@fairweatherannie]

Wow, Gaz, your stew looks amazing! A vegan chef’s dream come true, working with fresh produce like that. I always love watching Charles, too; he has such a calm, gentle energy about him. Great video, thank you! ❤

[@jenthang]
