Devastating Fire at Mountain Gardens - 🔥 Destroyed Apothecary, Library, Seeds, Solar, Tools & More🔥

[@Zoeybeau_1]

Sad to hear of your passing, I'm sure you're looking down on everyone with fondness!!

[@Satarma61]

The new building looks beautiful, too bad Joe can't see it. Thank you to everyone who is working and preserving Joe’s legacy.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

So sorry about the fire. My heart goes out to you. I almost cried to see what you had lost. Prayers that you will receive all you need and more to build a new building.

[@ladykickboxer23]

@Windhill Acres Thanks for letting all of us know about him. I was on the stream when you mentioned it earlier, I actually did cry when I watched this. That's such a huge loss, it's so sad when it happens to good hard working people.

[@jennyc1846]

I got tears in my eyes just listening to Joe. He may not have cried after the fire but it must have broken his heart to see his lifes work all gone..now he has too...I hope his legacy runs on. I will be following this channel from the other side of the world from now on. Thank you Joe I hope you have moved on to another beautiful place 🙏

[@StoryTeller_guy3]

He passed away last year :( The good go first sadly the evil go last. Life’s strange

[@damonlin2782]

I am from China.I‘ve heared your story that i am so shock we love you,Joe!!!!

[@qualqui]

Just heard about you Joe,you seem to be such an IRIE guy, coming here today because a KZbin buddy I'm subbed to, told us the sad news of your passing, but I will try to watch all these cool videos you have. Joe Hollis, RIP.😢

[@deepliving7915]

Joe, I’m so sorry… you were kind enough to host me there and this is such a loss. With your permission, I’ll pass the go-find-me around

[@zedvojtisek8693]

i send you love from Pague Bohnice in Czech Republic

[@annabellevaughn5968]

Oh. I am so very sorry. I pray you get everything back to how you want as soon as possible.

[@Nico5890]

We love you, Joe and team. I’m with you in grieving this tragedy. I’m also grateful that you made it out alive.

[@marceltopawian]

I'm so sorry. Donated. Mountain Gardens are truly divine place and have to be rebuilt at all costs. I hope you have a place to back up books and that new building will be even bigger and prettier. All the best. Keep up your work, you are awesome.

[@julieharris3861]

Glad to hear you are rebuilding! Blessings and know it will be bigger and better!!! You are a wonderful gift to this world and I thank you for all you have given us !!!!!

[@roeirwin1629]

Love you Joe and your truly a gift to this world 🌎

[@MelodyRK]

Oh my heart is just so broken for you! I’m so so sorry this has happened to you! All your books and seeds and tinctures and all of that hard work…. I’m just gutted for you. I wish I was not living in Oklahoma, I would drive there and help out as much as possible. I will most certainly be donating!!!! Hopefully the love of this community will help you rebuild quickly and you’ll be back on your feet in no time. Love & prayers to you, Joe!

[@wyo112]

lives are not replaceble!! good thing youre ok!

[@carinibern]

This made me cry, too, Joe. Thank you for posting this and to those who created it. "You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone," has been playing in my mind. Mountain Gardens and its herbal medicine resource is a treasure, one I relied on for my Chinese medicine practice. Now, without it, not only am I not able to serve my patients in a way that has been part of their healing path for decades, I also feel a loss spiritually. MG sustains me, even when I don't visit. May the phoenix rise! I'm grateful to all who are helping rebuild!

[@harriettejensen479]

So sorry this has happened. I don't know that I could be as calm about the loss of my life's work as you appear to be. I have been watching your videos for quite a while now and I hope that you will continue to film as you rebuild. I am donating and encouraging my friends to do so also.

[@flyfishing1776]

Your life was spared. A true Blessings Sorrow fills my heart of the loss. You are strong. You will overcome. Sending Much love and Prayers

[@viviennemurray9400]

Heart breaking Joe. What an inspiration you are - Thank you for lighting the way❤

[@jennydeane8033]

So devastating Joe … deep love from Eire/ireland 💚

[@lymecompass3625]

We love you Joe. We’re so thankful so many are helping! The new library and building will be amazing. 💚

[@divided_and_conquered1854]

I'm very sorry. My heart and love go out to you. To see libraries burn has always been the worst for me personally. I can only imagine the collection you had! You have an indefatigable spirit.

[@rjung_ch]

[@c.parker8439]

I want to thank Peter for introducing us to you and your way of living. Good luck

[@peitabreese721]

Sending you love from Australia Joe 💚

[@oceanluv88]

My sincere condolences on your horrific loss. Green Blessings for your rebuilding.

[@42cubes76]

I am so sorry to hear and now see this. It truly is heartbreaking. This home was amazing, and I could really feel it when you said the place is perfect in every way. My goal in life is to have a piece of land very similar to this, but with a treatment center close by. I actually have a folder of screenshots from your vids that I save for ideas when I build my place. And you did all that, absolutely nailed it, and then this. I get sentimental very quick about work and projects especially when you put lots time and actual manual labor into it. Times like this it's not so much about the loss of property but more about the memories built up around them. Stay strong, but I know you are.

[@elfi9409]

Oh my, I'm crying from Australia. But very thankful that you are receiving support and rebuilding! You must write a book to ensure that all of your herbal knowledge and wisdom is handed down across the world.

[@kaightyomanatee]

Sending love to you from Ireland and I'll see what I can offer in terms of financial aid x

[@Charlalaland]

Gonna share. Sorry to hear it man, I've been wanting to come up there for a couple years now. Sending you a love and support.

[@MizRuthie]

So sorry to hear about this ❤🙏

[@gaiustesla9324]

Spring always returns.

[@nubbosaur]

I found this channel recently and it has been a catalyst on my journey to becoming a Herbalist. The way you provide information reminds me of a botanist version of Bob Ross. Botanist Ross? I was so relieved to see the GoFundMe is still available! Wishing you a full recovery and my heart goes out to you for all of the loss ❤️

[@jeffcrist2977]

Can't wait to see the new Mountain Gardens. I should say built back.

[@memyohmine]

[@codysaunders7348]

I wish I could help, you're such a wonderful man. It must have been so hard to lose all that bounty of knowledge. At least your plants outside survived. I know that you will be well cared for, you've done so much to help so many. I hope things are quickly rebuilt

My heart goes out to you. We lived thru afire also… wish we were closer. Just know that your community of heart will hold you up!
