Early October FULL Garden Tour | Fall Food Garden

Fridge Pickles: rootsandrefuge...
Hey ya'll, I'm Jess from Roots & Refuge Farm
Welcome to a place that feels like home. A small farm with a big family. We hope you'll pull up a chair, grab some coffee and visit awhile.
There was a time that all I wanted in the world was a little farm where I could raise my family and grow our food. Now, that is exactly what exists outside my door. In watching it unfold, a new dream was formed in my heart - to share this beautiful life with others and teach them the lessons we've learned along the way. Welcome to our journey, friend. I am so glad you're here.

You have no idea how much of a pickup it is to see a notification of a new video posted from you. 🥰😀🤣

[@katehopkinsbrent5573]

I agree. It’s like a breath of fresh air. She doesn’t talk at us like we’ve never gardened or cooked , she’s like a friend came for coffee 😊♥️ I SO enjoy her videos as she’s just herself, no bits and pieces of any other channel. She’s just our Jess.

[@stephmeyers4602]

You are Awesome❤ I love your channel thank you for always sharing your true self such fun😊

[@LoveGrowLiveFree]

I second this notion!! It's like getting a Christmas present ❤

[@maryellenwilson6075]

❤

[@michelewhite1150]

I totally agree 👍

[@kailuagirl27]

100% goals. I have claimed my garden motto is "I know better for next year" with how much I learn every single year! Volumes of new hands-on learning that brings such joy. My prayer is to be able to garden so well that i can not only feed my family, but have excess abundance that spills over to help feed my neighbors. Your garden is so inspiring. Beautiful blessing 🥰

[@shill4]

I would love to see a good pantry type tour where you share more about what all you preserve and your methods. ❤️❤️❤️you as always.

[@denisewade6439]

Me too!

[@samanthathomas4327]

Good afternoon Jess!! That video yesterday really made me feel connected to you in a way. I feel like we could swap medical stories for hours! Sending prayers and positive vibes your way ❤️

[@erikas974]

Jess you are an inspiration to me. I never thought I want to have a green house but last week when I went to the supermarket they had a mini greenhouse for sale $19.99 so I 🦘 jumped for the chance to try to start on my own instead buying seedlings. Will see if it works for me. I only wish I am 20 years younger so I can do more. Thank you❤

[@MistyMeadowFarm]

Thank you Jeremiah for constructing all raised beds and making Jes’ dreams come true. You have a very blessed marriage

[@cindymoore9096]

28:09 Bitter melon is a good one to ferment. Salting it first gets rid of some of the bitterness, then you can flavor the ferment however you want, but slicing it and just replacing napa cabbage with it in a kimchi, or replacing radish in kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi) works well.

[@BarbraThompson-j5i]

Lemon grass should be cut off and roots dug, separated every year in order to keep it robust. It’s very hard to dig……like pampas grass. The white part of the roots of the lemongrass is what you want to harvest for soups, teas and sauces. You’ll have lots to share. ❤

[@ImtheDawna]

Mine is still in the pots I bought them in. Do I cut them down and bring in the house during the winter? Is probably too late to plant. I'm in 8b Texas.

[@lauriecorley6983]

I’m in 8b florida. I have mine in a big pot outside. I never brought it in. Just cut it flush. It came back fine but it took a while. I suspect a little extra care would have made it come back sooner. This winter I’m gonna pull it out and separate it like they spoke of and spread it around to different beds.

[@trishaprice3563]

Mine freeze every year and I have to rebuy them. I’m in west Texas I think I’m in 8b also. I forget.

[@greggydeth]

We're hopeful to move to a homestead this winter, and your garden tours have sustained me for the last two years. Thank you from this pastor. You've lightened my heart with Hope and Truth while I've waited on G-d's promises for my family.

[@kennedy6923]

Jess you’re amazing. thank you. I had only just asked you to talk about strawberries towers vs row, and you got right on it. Be strong, be you. you are so good at it. Thank you for all your help over the last few years.❤

[@froggie211]

Everything looks great, Jess! You are an amazing strong lady! God bless you and you and your family are always in my prayers ❤

[@steveegbert7429]

Love these tours Jess. No matter when they are or what you talk about, I always learn something!

[@steveegbert7429]

For anyone interested in the Greenstalk planters, I just got notice that they are on sale. The 5 tier original and the 7 tier leaf , in all colors, including throwback colors of black, rusted red, original green, and brown. Plus Jess' $10 code will still work in addition to the sale.

[@yeevita]

Amazing garden, as always. I have seen recipes for bitter melon relish, candy, ferments, and pickles. I don't grow enough to need to preserve it, plus I really enjoy stirfry or barely stirfry, so I do not know how those recipes taste. I think if you cook or blanche them, you can also just freeze that way and enjoy during all those months when the plant is dead. I would also just consider chopping/slicing them and freezing that way.

[@jeaniegobin1375]

Thank you Jess for the tour. I'm curious if you will plant onions from seed or starts or the little bulbs? I plant garlic in October and was thinking I should try onions through the winter. Any thoughts I would appreciate. Again thank you Jess. I bless you

[@littlecountrykitchen]

I ❤seeing all the possibilities! Does Toast or Zucchini chase the butterflies 🦋 or caterpillars? Wondering if having a host plant near my bengal cats is nice for pollinators! 😂

[@boysrus61]

That was refreshingly relaxing to watch t the end of my day... Thank you Jess.

[@stev9021]

Jess I love your videos! Would you be able to make a video on saving seeds?

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

So I grew up eating southern style beans and they are still my favorites, but I also love Greek style green beans and am wondering if you and your family might like them, too. Basically it’s cut up green beans ( I snap them, but i know some leave them whole ) cooked with chopped tomatoes, onions, garlic, evoo, and cubed potatoes. Cook them all together in a pan on the stovetop until it’s thick, tender, and tomatoes are almost a little caramelized. I have seen some recipes call for topping them with feta and I am sure that is delicious , but one of my college roommates was Greek and her family had a restaurant in Tarpon Springs and I don’t remember feta on the beans she sometimes brought back with her so I haven’t added it. You can google and find a real recipe. Just thought if your family doesn’t like southern style green beans (slow cooked until tender in a smoked pork flavored stock), or them sautéed the way you say you make them, they might still love them Greek style.

[@christiscamelotgardens47]

I have a tomato that I started from seed in the spring and it's huge and lovely and still provides beautiful cherry snacking fruit for me! Not terribly far from you here in the Pee Dee of sc 😊

[@taraconroy6631]

A garden tour with Jess is the best listening while preparing a (Canadian!) Thanksgiving feast. Thank you for the hope and so much to be thankful for 💗🙏💗🦃

[@justgoodness333littlehomes5]

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

[@debsenritchedrefuge603]

I'm traveling.. In Texas.. Just listening to your latest videos and this one popped up! Excited to help my Texas friends with their fall garden again and lots of epic photographs of all of them on their Epiphany Ranch Property! Thanks for you encouragement always Jess! Love you ❤️

[@terrytt2932]

what a fun tour...what a fun garden. I LOVE the diversity of your posts! ❣

[@freshwaterfarm4783]

Hi Jess! I use a method with my potatoes called the Ruth Stout method. We have hard clay soil and it is not fun at all to dig the potatoes out, not to mention that they have difficulty growing in it as well. We adapted it just a tiny bit by dumping a gallon sized bucket (from dollar tree) of our compost where we want the plant, pushing the potato into the pile, and doing this repeatedly to make 2 rows a foot apart and then leaving 2 feet between the double rows. We then cover the whole area with old, even moldy is okay, hay. We usually plant when a rain is expected, and we mark the first double row of each type of potato with a t-post with the labeled potato seed bag on it. When the plants are about 6-8” tall, we cover again with more old hay so only 2 sets of leaves show. We don’t water unless we have a huge drawn-out drought. At harvest time we go out, move aside the hay and there are our beauties, no digging required! I do NOT miss digging out of our concrete clay at all. In the meantime, we put our paper feed bags and cardboard down on the field when not growing potatoes as we have dirtied bedding from our chicken and turkey coops at the beginning of Fall and Spring when we clean our deep bedding coops. Maybe experiment and see what you think?

[@emilygardner]

She has done this in years past 😊

[@davidnorris8852]

I can't wait to have bean abundance. This was not my year but this is my first season. Love your Devotionals Jess. Many blessings to you and your family

[@MissBetsyLu]

Congratulations on first garden. Many grand blessings everyone everywhere and always

[@mariahjuhl702]

Thank you for everything you share Jess! ❤️ its crazy to me how much you have affected my life over the last 5 years. I so desperately wish that we were friends in real life so you could know me too haha we are just so similar! 😅 I always feel so seen whenever i watch one of your videos! Even garden tours! Lol

[@erikas974]

I feel the same way. To have a friend like Jess is a blessing. She always lift me up with her beautiful smile and her positive attitude. We never new how much pain she was in because she always smiling and loughing. She is truly a special person. When I am sick and in pain I am hopeless grumpy definetely not smiling. I remember when at 17 years of age they took out my appendix and my parents visited me in the hospital and if they touch the railing on the bed I screamed at them because I was in pain. 😊 How weird to think about these feelings now.

[@JoannPou]

Jess, thank you for sharing your health journey with us. I have a daughter who I think this will really help. She has been told she has a baby bladder. That she needs her bladder stretched every few years. Nothing has helped. She told me that she feels like the doctors think it’s all in her head. I adopted 2 sisters that’s parents were on drugs. She was born at 5 months. She had covid 2 times within one year. That certainly didn’t help. She is 43 years old. She now only can work 2 days a week. She is a diabetic and nothing they have did helps her. She has no health insurance so it takes every penny she makes to keep herself (as she calls it half way alive). She is a pharmacy Technician . Loves her work but not able to do what she would normally if she didn’t have these issues. She lives in Aiken county. Not too far from you. I’m 80 years old so I try to help as much as I can. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I been listening to you for a long time. I remember when your family came to Augusta, Ga.

[@janw491]

Thank you for the tips and encouragement. You kept on about a fall garden and even though I’m in a zone 5 with a first frost date of Oct 1 I went ahead with carrots, cabbages, lettuce and green beans. Well it’s Thanksgiving this weekend for us in Canada so we had fresh carrots and beans with the turkey. Parsnips were sweet even with no frost and all the herbs were picked today. Weird weather, it’s been hot and now rainy but NO frost, love it! But it’s still to warm to plant my garlic. Still only my second year gardening and I love your videos and especially love the wildness of the cottage garden.

[@sydneykasmar]

Your garden is definitely lovely. I love autumn gardens. I feel the vitality of the plants that have kept on going and the smell of the garden in the fall is comforting to me.

[@ballymullinfarm]

I know it would probably make your garden tours last half a day, but I’d love to hear about all the varieties and what ones you’ve loved or haven’t.

[@angelawillis145]

Love your let’s see what happens outlook. I’ve seen some pretty cool “accidents” in my own garden. I live not to far from you in Georgia and our weather can be a big blessing in the fall and winter gardens. Although after last year I’m not sure I’ll be able to keep saying that.

[@Jules1280]

SUGGESTION: To get rid of Bermuda grass you have to bury it with 9-12 inches of chipped wood mulch, not bark mulch, for a full year. And keep adding to it to keep it deep to burn out the grass. You may have to pick a few pieces out but the sooner you get them out and re-mulch that area to keep them starved of sunlight the better off you are. You can also burn them with a weed burner but they still grow back. Good luck!

[@trishiatripp8871]

Thank you. In Iowa, we call it devil grass. Hollar Homestead was talking about it growing under their trees. He is using mulch. We love both utube channels.

[@Jules1280]

@@trishiatripp8871 I live in Iowa as well. The article I read this info about the guy did his whole back yard. I am thinking about doing my front and back yards. It is not a pretty grass or I wouldn't bother. Cheers!

[@haleymglick]

@@Jules1280we had a professional landscape maintenance company scrape and remove our Bermuda lawn and remove about 3 inches of top dirt to remove as much roots as possible we then topped with about 5 inches of fresh wood chip mulch and 4 years later I could probably spend about 1-2 hours a week pulling out regrowth.

[@joyofgrowing]

Happy to she you sharibg your garden this Fall! Love it like always! You are truly exceptional!

[@christinelamb1167]

Wow, what a treat this was! Thank you for sharing your full garden tour with us, Jess, I really enjoyed it. I watched it while working in the kitchen this afternoon.

[@HabitualHobbies]

The raised beds in the high tunnel look so good! I love how sleek they are! The temp here in southern Missouri seems to finally be lowering. Last night got down into the low 40's. My peppers and a few tomatoes are still hanging on, but I know that they dont have much time! First average frost for me is October 16th ... only 9 days away! Perennial garden space is such a dreamy thought to me! Berries, asperagus, fruit trees! I'm so excited to see you fill out this space with beautiful nourishment. Eventually I'll be able to do the same! I would LOVE to just lay on the grass and stones in that cottage garden. Maybe read a book or listen to a podcast. So relaxing, even through the camera. Thanks for the tour, Jess! 😊

[@Growbacktoyourroots9]

🙌🏻 yay! Thank you, Jess! Love waking up and having coffee, watching your garden tours. We love and appreciate you

[@gailpoirier1857]

Whàt can I say ! Absolutely Abundantly, breathtakingly beautiful. Thank you for taking the time Jess. All your work ,with a little help So payed off . So abundantly BLESSEd

[@loriy7532]

Always good to drop by to visit and hear your news of all kinds , your farm is quite something Jess and so are you , in the very best ways..

[@samanthaw1419]

Lovely tour. Regarding the perennial cottage garden, I would suggest marking those plants now with stakes or labels (with variety name.) You will want to redo it and knowing where things are will make it soo much easier. x

[@pkharris]

The growth is exciting! I remember when moved here and you only had your houseplants ❤

[@lovelight9164]

Beautiful gardens, God's Blessings all around you.😊 🤍🕯️🤍

[@HomeLifeLoveliness]

Thank you for another great video. So glad you showed those holes in your greens. The pests got my brassicas too (SC - 8A) I’m so glad it’s getting cooler.

[@fareebug8439]

This basil TREE! ❤ 😮 Midwest is having the same thing with our Tomatoes, second wind! 🎉More fried green tomatoes. 🤤

[@Renie-hl8dd9mw8c]

Thanks for the tour, Jess. I love the garden tours. I am really enjoying the cozy cool weather, and I trust that you and your viewers are too. I appreciate you and your beautiful family.

[@Mphscat]

You are such a wealth of knowledge!!! I'd love for you to talk about the construction of the high tunnel. Where do you get the plastic and more about that please. I love your chicken method of pest control. I'm curious if you do all this gardening all by yourself? Your garden is so extensive I can't imagine all the work that goes into it.

[@HabitualHobbies]

This is EVERYTHING that I needed today! 45 minutes ❤❤ Woooo, thank you, Jess! I'm sure I'll have more to say later in the video haha

[@megang877]

Thank you for the beautiful garden tour!❤ I may have missed it, but does anyone know the type of lumber used for the brand new raised beds!?

[@BradfordHomestead]

Your garden tours are always, so inspiring! You give me ideas for my own space. Thank you so much for sharing!❤🤟

[@dawndawn6946]

Thai basil, echinacea, and zinnias are my weeds this year. I love it, but the basil is particularly prolific!

[@carolynerickson6365]

It's been an amazing year for basil here too! 🌿

[@robinlj5767]

Love your gardens, stories and insights Jess!!! Thank you!♥️💖♥️

[@debrahaley1235]

So inspiring Jess! Thank you for these tours- LOVE them!

I enjoy your garden tours. If you have the capability, I'd love to see an ariel view of your garden.

[@ambersimpson75]

I love your gardening style❣️ broccoli planted today ✔️ dill ✔️ I think I'm out of room, but totally ready for fall. My garden is a mix of flower and veggies because of me looking for pockets to put plants. I finally got an big arch put in, used some stuff that was in a cluttered pile of metal. And spray painted it black, cause I love that contrast idea you guys had❣️❣️❣️ gardening just keeps getting better every year, because of lady's like you, and the guys😉

[@KCallaAK]

October! Can you believe it! Fun to see the end of summer in your world.

[@agooddaytogrow238]

My Cinnamon Basil is about 4' round and 3' tall in a container. I cannot wait to plant it permanently. We had some swallow tail caterpillars on some of our passion fruit. Thank you for sharing Jess. We bless you till next time

[@raversmead]

Wow the pepper tunnel looks like a jungle ❤ love your garden tours, I've learned so much from you over the years

[@takishasage-freebeautyzone]

Welcome to my Thai basil world 😁 . My backyard is a Thai basil paradise and I only planted it when we first moved here 5 years ago. I've never had them like this at any other place we've lived. I'm in NC a little closer to the coast. So I guess our areas are similar to Thailand. Just a bit colder. I'm getting a good amount of green beans too. I love it! I'm also getting a few volunteer potatoes in my grow bags, which makes me so happy! Yahweh keeps providing, and I'm so grateful!! The only summer things that I'm really holding out hope for are my tomatillos and peppers. I didn't get enough salsa verde this summer. So I'm hopeful I'll get one last harvest.

[@petecilione4166]

It was beautiful. I live in a city , but have a double lot .i am already rethinking the layout for next year. I’m like you. I prioritize food, but I winter sowed everything with so much success that I think I have to rent a plot next year. My eggplant tomatoes, and peppers were prolific. Unfortunately, we had a family illness that required most of the hours my days at the hospital, but we still got a large yield. Thanks for the tour . ~ Tammy

[@jeannamcgregor9967]

Try fermenting green tomato wedges into pickles! I love them, especially the paste types like San Marzanos.

[@christinebrydges645]

Beautiful, ty for the tour🥰

[@shamancarmichael5305]

Another beautiful summer winds to a close, and the quiet fall garden begins. Lovely. Thanks Jess!

[@julie-annepineau4022]

Love a garden tour! Your garden is so inspiring. I am hoping for more volunteers next year, especially of flowers. I am moving the chicken in to clear the bugs and some weeds out tomorrow I think. So happy you had a great garden season, even if the cukes and melons didn't go as planned.

[@elizabethlink3993]

💚 Lovely Fall Garden Tour. Thanks Jess. I went to tour 2 local farms in our area of Santa Cruz today. I love seeing the variety of plants that different farms are growing. We got to taste many varieties of apples, figs and pears at one farm, and tomatoes, marmalade, lavender lemonade and apple mint tea at another 😊 💚

[@michellesilva2688]

What a beautiful space!

[@terresiagregg9326]

Awesome video Jess really enjoy your videos so much

[@PsychoPixie57]

Would love to see your process of harvesting and uses for lemon grass!!!

[@Sweettomatovine]

Awesome tour, Jess🍅🌱

[@michellereid9339]

Thank you for the tour... love the present garden and the future plans. I was always a neat freak when it came to what I planted where. I channeled my inner Jess this year and my "messy" garden was actually less stressful and I enjoyed it more. Who knew 🤷🏻‍♀️ Thank you. Quick note: Cheap bed sheets from thrift stores or garage sales work great for overnight protection from frost. I won't waste money on frost fabric either.

[@deewinston5651]

Thank you Jess for the garden tour. It amazes me of all your garden space. The eggplant looks so good. One of my favorite things that you grow is all the lovely roses. I can only imagine what it smells like walking through all your gardens. Thank you for sharing Jess.❤️✝️🙏

[@michelleinthemeadow]

Thank you for sharing. I can hardly believe how amazing how abundant the cottage garden is, in such a short time❤.

[@MarshaShelley-t3n]

Beautiful wild fall gatden!!

[@jmuth890]

How blessed you are. It’s all beautiful.

[@emilybh6255]

Do you ever grow Fennel? I would love to learn how to grow Fennel bulbs here in zone 8a SC. I think your reasons for growing as many berries as you can makes a TON of sense! Everyone would benefit from a financial standpoint, to grow if they can, fruit and vegetables that are the most expensive to buy in the grocery stores.

[@dianamcanally5515]

Have you ever tried knocking the sprouts off of the potatoes in storage? Grandma used to send the kids down to the root cellar to work through the pile os spuds knocking little sprouts off (just rub with thumb when they're not very big) to keep the potato from shriveling up. It does work to extend the storage life of the potatoes, and a few kids can clean off a lot of potatoes in a short time. I guess it depends on how badly you want to be able to use them longer. To this day I do it when I notice potatoes in my pantry are sprouting.

[@genevastratton8270]

I love your wild. garden, it's fun to watch it grow with you.

[@lynnkincaid6780]

Your tattoo says it all for your cottage garden... "Wilder Still" ❤️❤️❤️

[@tst1200]

I don't mind the grass in the cottage garden. You can get a Reel Mower and adjust height to quickly mow over if it gets taller than the slates.

I just cleaned out my garden this week. Saturday was our first frost of the season and I didn't get a great crop this year, so decided it was time for it to go to bed.

[@zuzauramek9850]

The birds love blueberries or any berries you need a cage or mesh to protect them. After 20 years we needed to make berry cages against birds because 2 years in a row they ate all barriers even green ones.

[@christinelamb1167]

The birds love berries as much as we do, don't they! 😂

[@hiltonvg]

Sharing your love of lemon grass. I use it regularly for Thai green curry😊 great to know I can try using it as tea

[@earthensoulliving]

It would be so fun to let whatever survives your outdoor garden this winter go to seed, your future veg would be so resilient!

[@debwallace100]

I love the garden tours, and the cottage garden is gorgeous 😍

[@kathymyers2009]

Have you tried smaller buckets or milk crates with air flow directly in, or close to, the flow of cool air from the mini split (for potatoes)? Might help them last longer (or dry out?). Or maybe some damp sand in the 5-gal buckets of potatoes (which might require some monitoring of moisture level). Curious to hear what methods you use/try and how they work.

[@barbarakarman8427]

Throughly enjoyed your tour of all your gardens

[@magsstewart5488]

You guys have done such great work on that property. I’m 1200 miles away and I’m getting fulfillment from your gardens. You’re sowing more than seeds, you’re spreading joy. Beautifully done! 😊

[@dianaderoche9312]

It must be a year of wild gardens❤ recently a friend mentioned to me that my garden reminds him of the jungle in jurassic park. 😂😂😂

[@chelsiamassey2292]

Jess can you please do a video on over wintering strawberries in a green stalk?

[@gointothedogs2]

❤❤❤Jess I'm thinking you could deeply weedeat between the stones and use moss to grow between. Wherever I have moss nothing grows through it here. If that doesn't work maybe sand would at least make it easier to pull out unwanted between the stones.

I'm going to Carolina in my mind.❣️(🎶 JT)

[@SiriusScientist]

Would you do a video on all the ways you use up a large number of eggs? We are getting a little over a dozen eggs a day and I’m running out of creative ways to use them. I’ve made lemon curd, brioche, fresh pasta, various soups and noodle dishes that include eggs, frittatas. We give a lot away to neighbors, but still have them building up on the counter.

[@itsallperfectlynormal9805]

Water glass them for when your girls are not laying?

[@shervin6711]

Potatoes, I wonder if you could winter them in the ground? Dig them as needed? In your high tunnel/in ground with bales of hay over it etc..might be a fun experiment in your new garden .
