Smiling throughout this whole video. Love your content, Gaz

[@angcoutts3385]

Love your enthusiasm. Keep your spark alive.

[@niky_digital]

Comfrey is another plant with amazing healing properties. I had a burn and wrapped it with a comfrey leaf and it healed within a night, no joke!! Its the real deal. Also loved this video. your happiness about plants reminds me of.. me lol

[@beltoftruth56]

Gas I don't know what to say , but your making us all want to go to the countryside and grow everything

[@suissejetaime7]

I love this low-key, less edited style of video. You have such a relaxing presentation style, BBC and Netflix don't know what they're missing!

[@gazoakleychef]

Wow, thank you!

[@cicelyfairyflower2149]

I agree 👍

[@kristycarrington9413]

Agree!!! Productions can be so over done, Gaz you have such a natural soothing presence

[@dianeirvine1384]

Relate to the natural way of filming. Thank you from NZ.

[@dianeirvine1384]

Love garden to table. That’s me too.

[@atlantis3438]

🚩What a Beautiful Vegetables Garden! Serenity surrounding & majestic scenic!🌻🌹🌺

[@thavylor]

Watching your garden making me smile. I am happy and proud of you.

[@ricedishy]

Good to see you're practicing 'grounding' by not wearing shoes. It certainly revitalizes the body!

[@mandytaylor1008]

I love all your ideas for using your produce. I love watching your videos

[@foodgrowers1531]

So good to see you walking and talking and sometimes with your other Brit friends who I also watch.

[@rachelmarikimber-live]

Who else here is in love with Gaz and his garden? 🥰

[@GrowVeg]

Nice one Gaz! So pleased to see that baby watermelon came good for you (in the end - phew!). You should feel very proud indeed! And awesome to see you wondering about barefoot - the mark of a true gardener! 😀

[@momoe.4075]

When putting seedlings in the ground I like to give the roots a little massage and loosen up the soil. I helps make it easier for the plants to acclimate. At least that has been my experience

[@Investigate_Mermaids]

This channel is my favourite gardening inspo ever. I'm currently doing all the work to get my house ready to sell so I can move out of the burbs and down to the country. Can't wait to grow my own veges. Gaz's videos are getting me through the boring drudgy period.

[@DocAswad]

1) Your charisma and jokes are just absolutely charming 2) For this being a one take, you did absolutely wonderful! 3) Tom needs his flowers too! Equally a video king!!

[@sisukaslife]

Yes do more non edited videos. I love the natural confidence. Inspiring, thank you Gaz

[@Domekarl]

i joined a local community/club that grows their own food on a field about the same time you started. we grow everything. we have 3 greenhouses and even our own bumblebee colony and a buzzard :D. you inspired me. you changed my food and therefore my life. thanks alot

[@ro2974]

this sounds lovely ❤ wonder if i could find a local club too 🤔

[@Domekarl]

@@ro2974 in germany there is a network called "Solawi". Our club works in cooperation with a farmer who gave us the field to do what we want. Still alot is regulated by the state. We follow severel organic standards (no pesticides/fungicides etc.)

[@AudenimLock]

So much knowledge! These videos are so calming 😌👍

[@Vavala3534]

Well done, Gaz!

[@susanrodman]

Just came across you and am so excited to watch all of your vlogs. I am a gardener in the U.S. and want to move to the country so badly. I’ll live through you vicariously 😊. I am also thinking of becoming vegan and are ordering your cookbooks. ❤

[@jessicaabeling1666]

this is so wholesome! I love everything about this! Very inspiring, just started my own balcony garden 💜

[@sydneybreckenridge9822]

I don’t know why you don’t think we’d literally watch any video you put out. rough cuts and all. hands down favorite youtuber out here

[@annetedder8202]

Your garden is beautiful and reflects your passion and joy for the plant world. It's a wonderful video. Your best, I think. Blessings.

[@mandytaylor1008]

Hi Gaz squash will last a year. When picked leave them in poly to dry and harden the skin for few days or weeks then you can bring into house to store for up to a year

[@YummBells]

As someone living in a tiny apartment in an incredibly cold climate, I dream of a beautiful garden like this. Thank you so much for sharing

[@IAmHisBeloved5]

You can grow indoors. You can grow vertically indoors or outdoors. Or you can grow hydroponics indoors.

[@barbs0375]

Everything looks so amazing 😍 and the pumpkins are HUGE!

[@BATgirl57]

Watermelon is a long, hot season crop and a dream of all our higher latitudes, it’s all good, Gaz!! You make the garden to table connection really sexy and I’m in for all of your creative KZbin videos! (It’s the only social media I do🤤) You’re my newest favorite 💚🌱🍽💚Thanking the algorithm for introducing you!🙏

[@paruvo9968]

Love this format! You're such a natural! My first real vegan meal was your chickpea Curry recipe including the turmeric cinnamon rice. Thank you for continuing to put free content out there and taking us along during your transition to country life! (Pat in Florida US)

[@ellaswann4873]

Thank you so much for all your content and all the work you are putting in! If you do a garden to table cookbook, may I please float a few ideas that I would love to see and buy in a book. To follow a seasonal growing/harvesting lay out, then within each season the best crops to grow and a few of your favourite recipes that hero that produce. Almost the ultimate culmination of gardening and cooking. Thanks again, throughly enjoying your channel

[@sierramcelfresh2836]

Gaz! I love the uncut live video format. It’s a window into who you are! We all adore you, your team & your channel so keep your head high & your confidence peaked because we’re all here to support you. You could make a thousand “mistakes” in a video & we wouldn’t mind. We love & appreciate all the content. Less time editing means more time with the garden & chickens! 🩵

[@luckyl4107]

Thanks Gaz, love your videos and amazing advice and info. You are such an inspiration :). Have started a month ago with my humble little bed and seedlings and watch your channel often.

[@julietjosefeliciano5759]

So inspiring, thankyou Gaz for such wonderful gardening and plant-based organic cooking🌼🥬🥦🥕🥦🥬🌼

[@AlicePriceMusic]

Wow! Those veg look amazing well done omg!

[@pagirl913.]

I see chickens in the background….Gaz must have rescued them from certain death. Bless you Gaz!

[@pagirl913.]

@Gaz Oakley…see I knew why there were chickens in your garden. Don’t listen to the naysayers… you do you… cause we love you!

[@saronnpov2687]

This real life / not so edited style of shooting was so refreshing to watch … wondering around the garden and just being you 🙏🏼❤

[@carolinacarter7730]

LOVE YOU GAZ!

[@CindyOrangeNeely]

I just absolutely ❤ love ❤ you! Your sense of humor has me laughing out loud, your humbleness and love for all the plants and your precious chickens bring tears to my eyes! I am so glad I found your KZbin channel. You are an amazing person!!!!!

[@valr.r.7130]

Yes please a fermentation video 🙌🏽

[@Latinacb]

Love the rawness and natural not so rehearsed videos ❤your transformation from city rush life to the more living with nature and fully embracing its peacefulness is really refreshing.

[@krisztinarozsos710]

We love you Gaz, you are such an inspiration. Wishing you the very best always ❤❤

[@mandytaylor1008]

Don’t forget to plant up your poly for over winter and sow carrots now in poly for early spring harvesting👍

[@adventureswithwonu4467]

Have no fear Gaz, no matter how crazy the algorithm gets, I’ll always seek you and your content out. You are such a calming presence that is so needed! Never stop please!

[@manuelacassia]

❤I'm from Brazil, I have little space, but I'm studying and your video appeared out of nowhere. lots of inspiration, gratitude

[@beatricewongchalermthan565]

Lolll that pure joy and giddiness at finding out your surprise un-mistake was contagious. Spreading joy through gardening and harvests are the best!

[@marymcandrew7667]

Gaz, I love your videos! My beets are doing great this year, I've been letting them grow big so I can store them over winter. The Candy variety you mentioned is probably the same as what I've got, called Chioggio. I didn't get many beets last year because the voles and mice kept chawing them! This year I cant wait to taste all the different kinds, Albina, Golden, Chioggio, Bolthardy. I had chickens when my kids were little, your video makes me want to have them again, I miss all the little noises they make.

[@KitchenonaBudget]

Gaz, you mush have known it already, but just saying that quinoa seeds have a bitter saponin coating and it that must be removed prior to cooking them. So wash them in water and rub vigorously multiple times until no suds form in the water. Others even suggest to put seeds into pillow-case and run in washing machine without detergent of course, seems a bit extreme, so I think prefer just washing and washing and washing🌊😀

[@xxghoulfriend]

The man is really out here living my dream 🖤

[@lunchymunchy2984]

Mate, you do make top quality content, been following you for years now and made a ton of your recipes... all love brother, keep on keeping on🥰🥰🥰

[@wiseguyfan]

Please do more of these! Your uncut self is so truthful and lovely to watch. I can't wait to see what you where your journey takes you and hope to visit wherever you welcome guests 🥰

[@tinagirton7761]

Loved the video! Yep, you picked it way early! haha! I wanted to tell you when you bent down to pick it! ha! You'll know for next time. Those suckers get huge!

[@multiversejc]

This one is amazing.. 😭 like, I'm emotional thinking about how beautiful all the plants are.

[@aithingxu953]

Totally lovely life. This is my dream life. I wish my dream can become true too. Wish you the best .

[@WhisperingJaneASMR]

Others say: What I got going and you say WHAT I GOT GROWING! I love it! 😂

[@YourGreenLady]

There is nothing better than saving your own seeds they have already adapted to your unique environment wherever you live making them strong and more resilient.

[@danihworld]

You are so inspiring as a fellow young gardener . Saying hello from USA!

[@rosanopdenkelder1378]

I love how genuine en enthusiastic these videos are. I see a big difference since you have started your garden, you seem so energized and alive. I just keep smiling looking at you because I recognize the joy of picking your home grown food and tasting it.

[@SA-ke8qc]

Please can you write a book on food preservation recipes 😋 It ties in to your passion for gardening! My partner and I just go an allotment. So excited 🎉

[@gprogers1]

Fun watch - lovely, abundant home-grown - full of ideas, hints and tips. Great, yet again. Thanks Gaz

[@CynthiaLeBosse]

Yesss your Earthing, it’s absolutely healing your body and it connects you in a different level with your produce. ❤🌍🍇🍓🥭

[@elisad3609]

I cannot stop telling you how beautiful your veg garden is! I do preserve a few vegetables too. With courgettes, I usually cut them in small thick slices and boil them for 5 minutes in water+vinegar and a pinch of salt, dry them and put them in jars and cover with extra virgin olive oil (that I produce ;-)). They last months and they are absolutely delicious!

[@thegreengoddess8850]

Watermelons and pumpkins are ripe when the first tendril next to the fruit is dried.

[@paulajones6366]

Green bean chutney is a great way to use green beans too. Surprisingly tasty.

[@delphine1001]

I would love to watch a video about you preparing pantry food from your harvests like celery salt, tomato purée etc.

[@CaitlinFaulks]

Gaz, your videos make me so happy. Keep being you 💜🧑🏼‍🌾

[@lisas2359]

What a lovely, beautiful garden!! This was a very enjoyable video. It's very encouraging to see other people learning from their land and growing along with their gardens. Just fantastic!

[@gazoakleychef]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Punkyrooster6]

I believe your lifestyle is what the Greeks meant with the term eudaemonia! Refreshing.

[@JustineDodd]

When you knock on a ripe melon, it will sound hollow. And the vine will be drying up and dying next to the fruit. Might be a champagne melon, perhaps? And my Nanna used to make watermelon rind jam - we got to eat the fruit fresh, and she used the rind to make the tastiest jam/marmalade! I love your garden!

[@TheKeksefresser]

thanks for keeping to make so much great content! I've been watching for years at this point and I'm still sooooo invested.

[@tee2936]

YOU ARE perfect friend!! So is your incredible, thoughtful, sustainable, happy, healthy garden/farm! Brilliant job. I admire your work so much and share your passion! I couldn't be more grateful for your channel. It makes me feel like I have a tribe. More this!! Rambling and all. So in love and so excited for you!! Keep following your intuition and don't apologize. This aligns with the all the right frequencies. Have fun harvesting! Ps. OG watermelons are yellow and from Africa!!! Congrats you're doin the damn thang 😂 🎉✊🏽

[@elletoye9666]

I agree with everyone who’s saying this relaxed, spontaneous style of vlog works well. Watched it right the way through and really enjoyed it just as much as all the other videos! This vlog has a really cosy and humble vibe to it. Can’t wait to find out more about the retreats, and the backstory to the chickens! 🎉💜

[@amandacarter5114]

The watermelon at the end….😂😂😂 Good job, though! You’re garden is beautiful and your excitement is contagious! 😁

[@gazoakleychef]

😂😂😂👨‍🌾

[@jackiek4159]

Your garden is absolutely stunning! You are living the dream life! 😍👌🏻💚

[@littlelifesnaps3280]

Your content is the most wholesome thing on KZbin Gaz, thanks for doing this for so many years for all of us 💕 the roller coaster of emotions over that watermelon is everything hehe Also you should read Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. I think you'll love it x

[@jolie7751]

You are so positive and radiate so much kindness

[@sarahbryant2515]

I love this less edited version of KZbin videos! So authentic and lovely to watch! Congrats on all the food you’ve grown!

[@showmemovegan]

Did I miss it? Have you done a video about the chickens yet? Can't wait to hear the story! This was a great video, too. Those are some beautiful veggies!

[@catrionagarde4410]

I noticed them too, but maybe they're the neighbours chickens? Or He just rescued them?

[@SB-cr4su]

@@catrionagarde4410 he told us in one of his videos where they first appeared that he rescued them and a video about the story will follow

[@showmemovegan]

@@catrionagarde4410 in a previous video a few weeks ago he mentioned that he was going to tell the story of how he got them, but I don't think I've seen anything else about them yet. I'm guessing he rescued them.

[@YarmouthBotanicals]

I cannot think of anything else that provides that same feeling as growing one's own food. Gorgeous garden Gaz!

[@kristyb_]

Beautiful garden, beautiful chickens, even the way you tell your stories put a smile on my face!

[@ТатьянаФилиппова-п9щ]

Браво! Вы достойны высокой похвалы.

[@eleonorastevic9448]

Spontaneous and clever guy. Like his accent. 🐱

[@rachaeljohanson-brown6005]

A good way to keep the slugs out is to make a thorny border of brambles from blackberry bushes!!

[@jopascoe686]

I love your passion ❤️ Gardening fills our soul for sure

[@troxycat]

I watched this with my pet rooster in my lap, and we both enjoyed it immensely! I love the uncut format, it felt like how I would give a tour through my garden lol. Your excitement is palpable, and I completely understand. There's nothing more satisfying than growing your own food!

[@CraigPayne-o8u]

The most beautiful channel, the best channel on here, the most stunningly beautiful man and he has such an expressive smile and your enthusiasm for self sufficiency and gardening is truely and honestly inspiring and i am so thankful for all the work you’ve done and shared

[@maciarenas]

I am sooooo fascinated! I just found your channel and I was flabbergasted by all your hard work! Your garden looks soooo stunning and it so cool to see that you care about it so much! I wish I could have a big garden with my own plants and vegetables. Cant wait to see what’s coming next! Good work mate! 😊😇💚

[@holistichomeschool9236]

Try fermenting your purslane! I can’t keep enough for my family. They eat a whole jar per dinner.

[@simplydifferent.]

This is such a beautiful video. Keep them coming please ❤

[@nicktheavatar_]

Everybody like the video if you love Gaz as much as he loves his garden ❤️

[@patislittlenest]

Hey, me again. Here in Germany we eat Rhubarb only until 24th June. After that it contains to much oxalic acid, which makes it a bit poisonous and it's after that date less tasty.The plant also needs to store energy for next year's growth, so we leave it alone and don't harvest it until next spring. We usually eat it at the same time as asparagus, which is a big thing here around Berlin. We love asparagus season (and rhubarb season). Sorry for being such a party pooper, but I thought you should know and check, also about that thing with eating beans raw...

[@alicewhite8339]

Love you so much Gaz 😭 your videos consistently make my day!! 💚💚💚

[@gazoakleychef]

You're the best!

[@luckyyluci7627]

I think it‘s great and contagious how enthusiastic you are when it comes to vegetables and good food. Thank you and your team for your work. 🙌

[@kimthaelf]

i absolutely LOVED this live tour and hearing you talk so amazed by your own garden. inspires me SO much, i can not wait to grow my own produce in the near future 💖

[@Oogs777]

such feel good vibes

[@gardeningzebra5756]

When you were picking that watermelon I was shouting at the screen that it wasn't ready! The tendril and the stem that attaches it to the main stem have to turn brown and die off before they are ready. So I wasn't surprised that it wasn't ripe. At least you know for the next one. Also when melons are ready for picking they smell very "melony". I discovered your channel a few weeks ago and love your passion. We moved to our bungalow 4 years ago due to my declining health and chronic pain. We have a much larger garden than our previous home, nothing like your plot, and I've really got into growing our own. Charles Dowding and Jess at Roots and Refuge farm have been my inspiration. I can't imagine my life without my garden now. Keep up the excellent work ❤

[@lizzardnannerzz]

I love your channel. I've watched it for a few years now, I believe, and I have loved your evolution. It's incredibly motivating and inspiring and such a great way to connect with nature and our food. I'd continue watching your old style of videos even if you didn't go homestead like this, but there's something super special and relaxing about these videos. Love them!❤

[@Katherine-ed4gd]

you are amazing love watching your videos in New Zealand

[@Tierrittaa]

I’m manifesting this lifestyle for myself
