Homestead Garden Tour Week 3

[@hazelm.9434]

I really love that you include a Bible verse after your videos which are linked to your garden and enjoying the bounty🤓🙏🏽

[@iartistdotme]

Looks so full of potential - how exciting and homey and a beautiful garden!

[@maritzelcastillon1969]

“Scatter, pray and hope for the best” new motto 😎

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Hahaha 🤣 that’s about how i garden summed up

[@mackenzierobinson7667]

Thank you for being real and showing areas of things that are not necessarily growing as you would have hoped. Your garden is still so beautiful! Sometimes garden tour videos can be so discouraging, but yours is not! None of my corn I planted this year is coming up, so I’m going to have to replant. 🫠

[@homesteadhome8757]

I’m a brand new gardener so I am just as excited as you are about your apples! I know that feeling!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Yay! Happy Gardening

[@Kristin5059]

Your garden is beautiful! Jealous!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you ❤️

[@sharonfox8783]

That was me this year. Planting the sweet peas and so excited to see the tendrils.

[@cherylpresleigh6403]

Wow, the vibrant green from one week to the next was lovely. Your terraced area looks nicely done. I hope you show how it turns out when you’re finished adding in the beautiful plants etc.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I’ll be sure to do that! Thanks Cheryl ❤️

I am enjoying your garden update videos. Your cat is adorable! Loved how he kept creeping in the video ❤😊

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you Erin!

[@suenavivedisfruta558]

I also get excited to see more flowers on my fruit trees. 😊

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

❤️❤️❤️

[@Kristin5059]

I feel hopeful now as well, the straw I laid down has also rooted, lesson learned! I will go through after our last frost, which is still in the future in this location.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Ugh that straw is getting a lot of us! But you’re right, lesson learned, now we know!

[@erikalouwrens3992]

I love the selection of flowers you are growing ❤

Thank you!

[@vickiiluvboxers4191]

I know I say it every week, but, I must say it again. The scripture this week is so beautiful and you so graciously and patiently took us on the tour of your gardens progress and sharing your vision for further up the road. My eyes filled with tears when I read it! Sweet tears like only the precious Word can do! I'm like you, I love the tendrils. I can spend an hour delicately winding them around the trellis. LOL Question: Is the cook house in use at all? We've been thinking about building one.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Vicki, I can tell we are kindred spirits ☺️ you always bless me with your comments, thank you. The cook house is not currently in use. It is old and un insulated so the cost to cool or heat is outrageous 🥴it’s like an oven in there during the summer so it’s the last place I want to be canning. Perhaps one day we will be able to fix it up, I love the idea of it!

[@Janice_1979_]

Everything looks great, we did some work on our garden this past weekend. Can’t wait.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you! Have a great weekend!

[@Gretchen5010]

Thanks for the garden videos! I’ve done Ruth Stout method for growing potatoes, they will come right up through the straw. I did add more straw once they get taller, the straw does break down quickly.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Ahhh thank you so much! I appreciate it ☺️❤️

[@Nins-niche67]

They grow through the straw. Add more straw once they are about 10 inches tall. I have done this 5 years now. I also add some bone meal when i add the additional straw. My straw I use for 2 years then third year it has broken down nice I add lots of aged compost and plant either pumpkin or vining squash in it.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Perfect! Thank you so much Nicki!

[@elisabethdiamond]

Always look forward to these! Lovely to see the progress

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you so much for tagging along ☺️❤️

[@kdavis7525]

Do you have a place for a rambler rose? If so, I’d like to recommend an old one that my granny used to have. It’s called Albertine, has the most beautiful, pink blossoms, and it smells heavenly. She had one on the back fence that grew 20-25 feet up into an old Hackberry tree, and when it was in full bloom, it was absolutely gorgeous. I actually got one a few years ago when I lived in Anchorage, Alaska and it wintered wonderfully. When I moved back to Tennessee, I dug it up and brought it with me and my sister put it on her deck railing and it grew so fast and so large.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Well, after looking up that rose I think I’m going to HAVE to find a spot 😂 It’s magnificent! What a lovely memory of your granny’s rose, and oh my the visual of it growing up that tree 😍 I’m swooning. Thank you so much!

[@simoneclarke5104]

It’s relaxing going through your garden. I am looking forward to seeing the apples, I have never heard of a multi variety self pollinator! Can you plant that beautiful little pine tree some where, even if it’s in the forest(?), I hate to see it die😢

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I’m so glad ☺️ I wish we could plant it but after it’s been cut there is no saving it, roots won’t regrow 😕

[@simoneclarke5104]

Oh gosh I felt so stupid after my comment when it dawned on me that it was most likely a cut tree! Love your garden videos, it will look so pretty by summer💖

[@simoneclarke5104]

@@seedandsparrowhomestead sorry my reply is below

[@camaro1968nc]

Did you build your own greenhouse are was it a purchased one? I want a green house and trying to work it out.

[@aly_b]

Your cat definitely wants to be a youtuber 😂 desperately trying to steal the spotlight. Your garden looks more beautiful with every passing week. I tried to plant some green beans on a seed box and one afternoon forgot to put them in a shaded area and left them with the transparent cap to retain moisture and I swear they cocked thru 😅 It's been so hot and dry here. I long for some rain 🌧️, pls send some my way.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you friend! LOL that cat is convinced she is a star 😂

Those of you who thinks or feels that God doesn't care. That He is indifferent and or mean etc …. Are you wondering why is the world as it is, so much evil everywhere… where is God and His faithfulness… why does so much so bad happen?..... Well God does not miss it, none of it.... Please keep reading and understand things better and let this truth help you.... Evil things happen because there is sin and people sin and there is a way out of it all, evil, sickness, pain, heartbreak, demons, lies and so for.... Read everything here, please just read it and really listen because it is how to get out of so much hardship 💕 God does judge sin which is evil and if people don't stop sinning they will die for that disobedience,that sin. When God said if you take from that tree you will die He was saying if you disobey, you sin, I will punish that sin because God does punish it, sickness, demons and death. And if you keep sinning I will punish you to the point of death, is that punishment. Sickness is a consequence of sin and it is a judgement God makes upon the people for their sin. All sickness takes its toll on the body and will result in death unless you stop sinning and that brings a reward from God for the righteous decision to stop sinning that brought that illness. Throughout scripture God tells us these things. God does love and there is mercy in His punishment too. He chastises those He loves. His wrath doesn't mean He doesn't love, it doesn't mean there is no mercy, it means He puts His law first and He obeys it first. He punished sin and then punishes sin and so forth and if someone doesn't stop sinning or sins more then that judgment is death just as He said, sin is death. Scripture says we are all responsible for working out our salvation with fear and trembling. Seek scripture, learn who He is and what He said to obey and do it. if you obey Him you live in blessings just like Deuteronomy 28 says and it also says disobedience is curses, that's sickness, demons possibly and again to continue in sin results in death. God told all the details, and paid for us to get out of sin and how we should live and when people don't live righteous then the world looks like it did in the days of Noah, violence, drunkenness and such lovers of self, pleasure and all sin and life apart from God, life in disobedience to God. Why should He bless sin? He punishes it then punishes sin more if someone keeps sinning. Is it tough people die from that choice they make, their sin and lack of seeking God to obey what He said, yes it hurts. How do you think God feels, He loved the world so much He gave His only begotten son and Yeshua died in agony for us to be out of that sin, taking God's wrath upon Himself so how do I think He feels, grieved so grieved but I know from scripture He always obeys what His word says, He never changes and that includes every word He said. Now Yeshua took God's wrath upon Himself for our sin Isaiah 53. We get peace with God and can come before Him to be heard and we get to be cleansed from our iniquities, sin. Just like the lamb sacrifices in the old testament Jesus was that for us a peace offering and forgiveness offering. We get freedom from that sinful past, from that sin and we get our healings because His stripes healed us from the consequences of sin. He gave us a way out. A way to start again out of that wrath. How loving is that God gave us His son who took God's wrath for us out of love. How loving just how loving is our God who made a way for us to be out of that wrath? Wrath we deserved by our sin and continued sin. But God so loved the world He gave us Yeshua. Yeshua gave His life to rise to life for us to give us new life. A new creation to begin again a new life, having been born again. Having received forgiveness for sin and a pardon from God's wrath, that very wrath you talk about. But God gave us a way out of His wrath when Yeshua, our lamb paid for our sin. Again how loving is that! Our way out of God's wrath. Our new life. Our second chance to live rightly, that's righteous, before our Holy righteous God. Our being born again to live right because God planned for us to not all receive His wrath for things we did, sin. Yet His son for everyone, one for everyone and a way out, pardoned and free to live life righteous, whole, healed, delivered, how loving oh so very loving that is. All that is in scripture too. Seek and find, learn who He is and obey and see more of it. Read Mark 4:24 the more you obey God the more He reveals to you, it means that. Read Matthew 6:33 live it daily and understand who He is and just how loving He always is and honestly how loved you are will be seen felt and KNOWN too. 💕 Read all scripture and read it often while listening to every word. That's needed to understand. May you come to understand Him all your days seeking and finding in scripture and growing in the knowledge of God, we know Him and His ways from scripture alone. in Yeshua's name 💕 there are many misconceptions and lies in the world about God and people should spend time seeking Him and they will see that and better yet, the truth about Him for themselves 💕 Trust God and learn who He is in scripture and obey it all. Believe Him because you should and trust what He said you truly can because He never fails, every word of scripture is truth. Read scripture often and ponder each word to understand what it says, then Obey it. 💕 hallelujah Yeshua Praise God
