Yes variety is the spice of life. I love your garden. Nice to have a partner in the garden while the kiddos are napping. 👩🏾‍🌾👍🏾💕

[@bluebirdhomestead]

It is always nice to have company in the garden for sure! -Cara

[@emilygardening]

You're not weak! Your body is just already doing a major workout every day! 💪

[@bluebirdhomestead]

This is true 😃

[@KathysTube]

No shame in needing a little help... nice to see you working together in the garden 🤗❤️

[@bluebirdhomestead]

I am grateful for the help for sure!

[@candicethepastorswife7396]

Im new, a young widowed Baptist Pastors wife from Georgia...love your garden

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Thanks for joining the channel! Welcome!

[@joy-ju6tx]

I always like watching you two together! so sweet!

[@bluebirdhomestead]

You are so kind thank you!

[@megslittlehouseinthecountry]

Sometime I wish I had help with my garden. You are fortunate to have Ryan there. Being 60 means I can't always do the things I used to do when I was younger. I probably would have had to use a garden fork to get those broccoli out. I love how well your peas produced. The plants got so big and beautiful! Mine are huge this year! I had to go out yesterday and make a support for them. I have never had peas get that big! I thought the little fence I made would be enough. I guess I thought wrong. Take care of your self, and the little one inside.💖💖💖

[@bluebirdhomestead]

That’s awesome that your peas grew bigger than expected! What a good problem to have Meg! ☺️ I am definitely glad for Ryan’s help that is for sure! -Cara

[@newbeginnings-myeverydaylife]

i always love your bright and breezy attitude.

[@bluebirdhomestead]

thank you 😊

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

What a wonderful day and everything is looking beautiful and lush 🍃🌸🍃

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Thanks so much ☺️

[@peggyhelblingsgardenwhatyo7920]

Good morning Cara and Ryan, Your Garden looks great 👍 You've got to be feeling like you want to sit inside and stay cool. Take care of yourself. ❤Peggy❤

[@bluebirdhomestead]

It has been really hot indeed!

[@obgardening]

wow cauliflower grows very big and healthy, good planting medium and adequate nutrition for them to grow❤❤❤👍👍

[@bluebirdhomestead]

☺️☺️☺️☺️

[@mishalea]

Yes I could stare at those hollyhocks and poppies all day!😊🌸 Lol, don't thin my poppies!😂 You guys do so much and have a lot going on, don't be too hard on yourselves. Wonderful garden! God bless and enjoy the summer.💖

[@bluebirdhomestead]

They are beautiful aren’t they!? I want to plant more next year ☺️

[@GardeningOnTaylorMountain]

Y’all are so cute! Thanks for taking us along today 🥰

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Thanks for watching!

[@joyhomesteadva]

No shame! I need my husband to help with A LOT when it comes to the garden. He is definitely the muscle behind this operation. Also, I haven't turned my compost yet this year. I should probably do that, haha. -Jamie

[@bluebirdhomestead]

I don’t know what I would do without him ☺️😊

[@GardeningwithBernie]

Great video Cara. I always find it hard to not re-plant tomatoes when they spring up unexpectedly throughout the garden. The Poppy is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Same here, it is hard to toss the volunteers ☺️

[@monicas2461]

We buy veggies from a local farmer and he sent us broccoli side shoots a while ago. They were delicious!

[@bluebirdhomestead]

That is awesome! ☺️

[@helenlazoga1487]

Hi Cara, hope you are well. About the squash bugs, perhaps you could try and sprinkle some wood ash over and at the base of your plants. Hope it helps. God bless.

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Great idea! Thank you for the tip! :)

[@tomatoespoppieseverything]

Definitely take it easy & rest as much as possible💜 I adore those ruffle poppies! I'll have to sow some next time.

[@bluebirdhomestead]

we are trying too ☺️

[@reginabrubaker2310]

Gorgeous poppies! Love to see you working together

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Thanks!

[@pickleslabs]

Thank you for the video! It’s fun to see another harvest 😊

[@bluebirdhomestead]

thank you 😊

[@myrustygarden]

Morning lovelies, I have tried to grow purple broccoli to no avail. Yes brassicas have big roots but that’s a good thing it means no club root. Great update and always fun to watch. Have a blessed week 🙏, Ali 🌞🇨🇦

[@bluebirdhomestead]

I am glad I am not alone in failing to grow purple broccoli 😊😜 Thank you!-Cara

[@thehomesteaderwannabe]

I really enjoyed this video, you got to love a 3 foot tomato volunteer, Kristie

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Indeed. It’s crazy the number on volunteer tomatoes we have this year

[@Literaturewithkathleen]

Looks like you did alot and I understand the flowers are beautiful and hard to pull!

[@bluebirdhomestead]

So hard! Glad I have Ryan to help with those difficult jobs 😁

[@carolynrandle5454]

You do what you can do.dont overdo yourself

[@bluebirdhomestead]

I am glad Ryan is around to hep me with my projects -😊Cara

[@MayfieldRanch]

Good point! We sure appreciate those peas when we can get them. By the time we get tired of anything there is another veggie ready to harvest:) I love watching you guys work together ❤ your garden sure looks beautiful! Those poppies are amazing! Are they the same ones that were on the baker creek cover this past year? I need to order some of those seeds- they are beautiful! When is the baby due? I hope you have a great week! -Cady

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Yes I believe those poppies are the same ones on the cover lasted year! Special video on that topic coming tomorrow 😉😉

[@GlacialRidgeHomestead]

We give our garden to our chickens before winter.

[@bluebirdhomestead]

we do too :) -Cara

[@carolynrandle5454]

Love your redhair.i have cousins that are redheaded too.

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Thanks!

[@AHomesteadingHustle]

I just posted on ig about how gorgeous sage flowers are, i had no idea!! Looks like you need a goat or a sheep to eat all those greens 😉

[@AHomesteadingHustle]

You'll have to cut off that compost amaranth for a flower bouquet! 😊

[@bluebirdhomestead]

You are right I should!

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Those are probably in a our future! 🙃😉

[@gardenstatesowandsew]

Thank you for sharing ❤

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Thanks for watching!

[@lisanowakow3688]

I tried to take a large air conditioner out during the second trimester of my pregnancy. Absolutely no stomach muscles then.

[@bluebirdhomestead]

oh no 🙈

[@leighannf.4730]

Do hollyhocks have a good vase life? They're SO beautiful!

[@leighannf.4730]

Also, your hair looks pretty today! I like the braid.

[@bluebirdhomestead]

I’m not sure if they do or not. I’ve never tried to put them in a vase inside. I’ll have to try at some point.

[@Amanda-cn3pk]

Did you direct seed your hollyhocks and bachelor buttons?

[@bluebirdhomestead]

Yes I did. Directed seeded them in the fall.

[@Amanda-cn3pk]

@@bluebirdhomestead awesome, Thank you!
