Tipper, my Daddy was a gardener so when he died, I took one of his market baskets to the florist with veggies yhat he always grew and had them arrange them in the basket. I also used one of his red bandanas to tie around the handle. I had the card signed from my 2 sons and my 2 grandsons. I also had an arrangement of roses because Daddy grew them.

[@mags102755]

That's what indicates the coming of winter for me. Tipper and Matt's last popsicle video. I love how much you both care about what has happened to the victims of hurricane Helene in North Carolina. It just emphasizes what good people you are.

[@PhyllisGentry-b8n]

Thank you both for bringing peace and calm to a bad day for me. God bless you both, prayers to everyone, and be safe.

Drying leaves to crumble into soups, stews, & smoothies works so well. I'm glad Katie is doing this with the spinach.

You are sitting with winter hats and jackets and enjoying Popsicles. So funny!!!

[@csnanny1882]

Tipper I love the way you set you squash and other vegetables in tray in your kitchen . That’s the way some country folks do. I just can’t get over how long your garden just keeps growing. Reminds me so much of growing up in Tn. I can just see my Mom in the kitchen cutting up turnips for our supper , I haven’t had any for years, and they are so good. I would love to see all that you have canned this year. God bless you all.

I always love these Sunday evening videos. It’s a perfect way to end the weekend!😊

I can’t believe today was the last popsicle!Seems like the shortest summer ever.I made beef stew and apple cobbler this afternoon to officially mark fall.Thankful that I have a safe dry place to live-please pray for Milton and Helene survivors everywhere.🙏🙏☮

Tipper I love your toboggan.

[@brendastajkowski502]

I have not had a woodstove in over forty years but I remember using dried potato peelings and also orange peels in the woodstove to help keep down the buildup in the chimney. It might be an old wives' tale but I always did it. You just add it when you are putting in the wood.

[@lisaboling5336]

Matt in his "drawer-tail".......that tickled me......I say that myself..........he will be sad too Tipper, when he eats that LAST mater sandwich!!

[@swoodhaus]

Thanks for sharing organizations and communications for helping with the storm damage. I have burned wood all my adult life. Nothing better. I have my chimney cleaned every year. Like Matt, it gives me peace of mind! I've had four or five fires already here in middle TN. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

It’s been cold here! It’s that time of the year when (in my case, living in and old house ) you wake up cold and it’s hotter outside than it is inside. ❄️

[@Tonytherf]

Hey Tipper and Matt, Mr. Frost is a coming. I just pulled my few tomato and pepper plants yesterday. I had a handful of baby peppers no bigger than a finger nail, but I'm still going to eat em in some scrambled eggs or something. My nephew got a doe this morning, not real big, but it's still exciting. Continued prayers for everybody, I love you all.

[@brendaschenck859]

Did Granny make that, if so she could sell those real good this time of year. Knowing Granny she won't. Tell her to make matching ones for Corie and Katie, and the boys, that would be cute and comfy.🙏❤️🙂

[@DianeTorbett]

Love watching you

[@carolmarra1536]

It's sad when the seasons pass by, but I believe it's Gods' way of reminding us everything has its season and has to die. Also a time for us to slow down some and stay cozy indoors with the promise of Spring and rebirth. Hope Matt stayed safe on the roof and that you all enjoyed your first fire of the season. Here in northern NY state, we've had 3 good frosts so far, but the days have been beautiful.

[@Dougeb7]

Postum weather coming! Stay warm! Continuing to pray for and donate to hurricane relief. Not trying to toot my own horn. I just want to encourage you that people care and are responding to the need. Thanks, and God bless!

[@robinhaupt9119]

Your marigolds are beautiful Tipper! Thank you for sharing Tipper and Matt.

[@This_Old_Man_68]

We've had our first frost 4 mornings ago Ms. Tipper. I read the Farmer's Almanac and we're not to have snow again this winter it predicts. It's calling for a lot of rain and much cold is all. I sure hope it's wrong. I'd sure appreciate to see a great snowfall this January or February. It's been good and cold here of the morning lately but the mid afternoon it's been a good bit warmer, low 70's. If I had my druthers it grow cold already and stay throughout the day. I thank you for the prayers for the Augusta area. My daughter says folks been busy clearing and cleaning the city. Just like Asheville which got the worst of the hurricane, it's going to be many years for everything to ever get close to what it once was. It's been a great while that I've prayed so hard for others and in a good way it's helped me move closer to the Lord. Ain't it strange how the Lord uses such calamity to reach people in such a way. I do hope you will fare well and as always God bless you and yours.

We had to take in our peppers this week I have got all the peppers taken care of and the last two days we have been making pear butter in the crock pot. I had to do a three quart pan on top of the stove. We ended up with 13 half pints and three pints of pear butter. It is so good.

Mat you would love hunting way up in the deep north woods where I live in northern Maine the deer are plentiful and the black bears are all over the place however the most fun is the moose I get buck fever every time one walks up on my stand I’ll miss it at 73 after a stroke I’m done hunting . I love your show I’m an old retired tracker now I’ll miss the track we would find a buck and stay on the track till we got our chance . You should u tube search hunting the big north woods of ME I think u would like it

[@dustyroselansall8185]

Matt & Tipper - I am thinking if it is time to be building a fire, it must also be time to put the popsicle away!! Made be shiver watching you eat them.... ha ha ...but it's always a special time to share a few moments with y'all. Stay safe on that roof Matt!

In my area, we've had 5 frosts to date, with 3 of them the past 3 days/nights. I eat the Outshine popsicles year round, don't matter if it's cold or not. I used to like the coconut but grape is #1😋 I just recently started seeing commercials for Outshine. I sure miss the metal roof. I ADORE the sound of rain on it.

[@s.c.2424]

Oh, I just love your marigolds. Watching yall pick whats left is so bittersweet. My papaw would have us outside picking what was left and afterwards he'd always say "well time to find a new hobby". My favorite thing though was I got to "keep" the less favorable stuff and my grandmother would help me can it to make Christmas gifts. I bet you got a good few things to use towards Thanksgiving and Christmas too!

[@frankscarborough1428]

Thanks you two for the garden cleanup and last harvest tour. God bless

[@benitastevens612]

I pulled up all the tomatoes, big little , green. I cook the green ones with onions, peppers of all color and add a can of drained beans, some times I use all white beans, not navy beans but any other white or I some time use mixed beans or just pintos…they are so good with fried potatoes, meatloaf and cornbread. We love beets, we add beets sometimes.

Hi Tipper and Matt, Thank you for bringing us aolng your last harvest before the frost and the last popsicle chat of the season. Matt please be careful cleaning out the chimney on the roof. I hope you have the first fire in the wood stove this evening .😊❤🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you Kim!!

[@RoberyRichey-my7dx]

My grandmother had a continuous war with Blue Jays primarily because they attacked her cherry trees and pecan trees. As a kid with a BB gun I was given strict instructions not to shoot Bluebirds, Cardinals, or Mockingbirds , all southerners know that's a sin, but there was a cash bounty on Blue Jays. I think my ability to lessen their population impressed my grandmother more than anything else I accomplished Thanks for sharing as always.

[@catherinecooper2360]

Every year, Tipper, I get sad when I have to cut the Geraniums down for the winter. Their blooms were so lovely, and it's sad to know that all their effort to be beautiful still, is wasted. I apologize to them for that and thank them for all their efforts to add beauty to the world. But I bring them into the garage for the winter and the precious things still continue to try to bloom. Spring is hope, Summer is fruition, and Fall is the demise. Winter just beds down. If you have Tommy Toes that are still green, I'd use them in salsa with Matt's favorite hot peppers. Toss in a couple of the spoilt red tomatoes, some onion and garlic, and Matt would have a feast all how own! 😜

[@lorirobbins1099]

I am probably a little strange, but I like to explore old graveyards on vacation. Charleston and Savannah are just fun to walk because of the old houses, headstones and unique gardens. I remember one graveyard had huge lantana plants growing. I didn’t even know they could get that big. If NC weather stayed tropical, we could keep them over winter too. In Puerto Rico they were using plants for hedges that we can only get at the florist. This year I was blessed to get to visit another tropical island. There was a banana tree growing almost at our door with tiny bananas on it. I will be wondering how big they are getting and if they got big enough to eat. My family taught me to love plants and nature. I guess once a gardener always a gardener no matter where you go. Still praying for our fellow North Carolinians. I appreciate all the information you have provided. Have a good week and love to all.

Hey gang, If you needed more food storage space, you have a very good situation for a root cellar, right back K there in the goat bluff. If you started digging straight back into the hillside, by the time you got 8’ in, you’d start a roof. You could easily dig one that would gravity drain, and would only something like 4’ of roof at the front.

[@bluegillbum3165]

From what I’ve seen on Facebook, they need volunteers desperately to help sort through the donations. I need to clean my pipe before I build a fire this year. I’ve never done it and sure would like Matt to show how he does it.

Not a gardener myself, my bumper crop was 8 cherry tomatoes. Could you cover the cucumbers in clear paint tarp so any sun could warm the vines a little? I really have no idea if that would work. I know in our area they use smudge pots and fans to keep the frost at bay. I just love seeing your harvest it’s God’s gift for your hard work.

A couple of my friends who live just 3 to 5 miles away were talking about the 2 frosts we've had. But, I'm not seeing signs of it. My enormous nasturtium is still up and beautiful, so I'm a little confused. It is planted up on a hill in the open. I asked my husband, and he said he has not noticed that it has frosted, so 🤷‍♀️
