Ever Considered Raising Livestock? // What did You Study at College? // Recap 🌿

[@pearlmatthias2916]

The reason why you have so many positive comments...is you and Aaron. You both are positive, realistic and little sassy sometimes :) You two are the eptitome of what KZbinrs should be. Wish you were my neighbor and friend. I look forward to your videos everyday. Don't think I've missed one since I began watching. Thank you for being so amazing.

[@lisaburnette6850]

Not to mention the protective GA fans... apparently when GA videos show up on other channels there are a few that have something to say about that 😆

[@terri2612]

It is because you are both real. You show your real selves and we connect to that. The content is amazing too 😀

[@zukosmom3780]

I think it’s her passion for flowers. It shows through everytime she turns on the camera. It’s also obviously how much they love each other too. Laughing, smiling, teasing and being sassy is so adorable and I love watching these two. They lift me up. Especially since my marriage is crap, I have this funny beautiful family to watch ♥️♥️♥️

[@jeans3190]

Yes I want to be your neighbor and friend. I'll bake for your family & I tour/help you dead head. I so enjoy all your videos

While you might not like public speaking, you are an excellent teacher! You have taught us all so very much about gardening, positivity and rolling with the difficulties that arise.

[@laraemitchell9064]

I think the answer for Laura going to someone’s garden club is: instead of booking her for a speaking engagement, have a garden tea party where everyone can drink wine, admire the garden, and just chit chat, maybe a Q&A.

[@Rita70.]

Agree Gina! I always love that one clip where she's walking out onto the stage to speak at one of the garden shows a few years back, and Aaron is following her and filming so you can see the crowd's reaction to her entrance. Gives me the sweet feels because I so get it! I'm that person in the crowd! :) (or rather I wish i had been ! aahhh maybe someday)

You have two littlies, a massive piece of land/garden to look after, plus all the usual life bits and pieces. You are both wonderful people and doing an amazing job. Thanks :-)

Y’all are amazing. I love every you do and how gracious and positive you both are. Laura I 💯 % agree with you not answering questions directly. It’s so hard to do especially since you have people from all over the world. Every location is different. Zones are not equal. Zone 8 in Louisiana is not the same as zone 8 in Washington. You I get little rain where as I get on average 58 inches of rain annually. But mostly Because a lot of people just don’t give enough information when asking a question. I cannot begin to fathom how long it would take you to answer even the smallest portion of the questions that are asked of you. I think the best answer is the one you give frequently as someone from your local garden centers. I also encourage each to find gardeners in their areas, the local extension office, garden clubs and master gardeners in their area. Drive around and look at landscapes that are lush and beautiful. Pay attention to what seems to grow best in your area. We don’t have local nurseries in my area so when I started gardening at my own home I went to garden club symposiums. Nurserymen, read books, bought every gardening magazine I could find. I went to my county agents office and picked up numerous brochures. When I drove around to neighborhoods and even knocked on a few doors and asked if I could take some pictures of plants in their garden. Most gardeners love to share their knowledge. I stuck up many long lasting friendships that way.

I went to listen to you speak in the North West Flower show March 2020. You were EXCELLENT. You are a natural teacher. You need to share your knowledge. We need to be your students. KZbin is perfect as you can pretend there's not an audience of thousands in front of you!

Love watching you do these recaps and hearing you and Aaron discuss future plans!!!

[@bethsatterfield9499]

Just heard your comment about being cheered up by our comments. You and Aaron so deserve all the praise we can give you. I can’t tell you how you’ve changed my gardening game. I knew a lot, but you have shown me so much more. You two are heroes to many of us. ❤️

It’s such a joy to be able to sit and listen to you and Aaron. What an great family and what an awesome legacy is being passed from generation.

I love when you two spitball ideas during these videos!

[@joanl2057]

Definitely better now that Aaron participates.

I’m telling ya. We need a mini series where we follow Aaron around and see what his chores are! From keeping the garage/shed’s organized to grass maintenance and even when he goes around treating plants for special issues. 👀

You two are great together! Love to listen to you. Thanks so much for all the knowledge you share and the entertainment you provide.

I love the recap video format much better than answering each individual question. I think with the amount of questions you get it would be overwhelming to answer them with a post. The way you discuss the answers and Aaron editing in pictures or clips for visual reference, makes the recap videos kind of feel like we’re all just sitting around having a chat with you and Aaron. Thanks for all the wonderfully positive content you do!
