[@mehonesssaliou5270]

Blessings Ras kitchen, Mokko, Matthew, Coppy & Ratty. Jamaica is full of hidden gems and love that some are yet to be seen.

Ratty is such a cool kid. Absolutely love him. Such a wonderful boy🙏🏾🥰

[@wraithstrongopark]

rewatching. the trio of Ratty, Coppy and Matthew is classic.

[@wavefromthebronx]

Watched ratti grow from a baby to a bright young man, never change ratti !!

[@bobbalkovec]

This is what I love about your channel...show the Real Jamaica. Sharing the history and culture.

[@robertgrant5372]

That’s what I loved about growing up in Jamaica,you can always find something in the woods to eat.

[@christinecarmichael244]

Ratty has really grown

[@columbushill4974]

No matter what man builds, nature will reclaim without constant human intervention. Amazing. Yea camping out there would be quite interesting to see what comes out at night, animal, humans or ghosts? Maybe some old timers will have the oral history of the place. Great content.

[@davidrausch7941]

My thoughts exactly! Nature has swallowed up the evil of that place, and is returning it to itself Im sure the slaves who toiled there thought the suffering would last forever- but even the greatest evils and vanity pass into dust

[@CourtneyMinors]

The estate became defunct about 1836, record shows last owner as Robert Cargill believed to be the same owner of Cargill estate near Richmond estate what is now Richmond Park near Halfway Tree. Actually we camped nearby on Mokko’s accounts of rolling calves presence but saw nor heard anything of the sort. Plenty of mosquitoes, but nothing deet couldn’t handle. It would be interesting to find the waterwheel as depicted in drawing from that era. That was planned for another exploration. But we return to a good mountain bike run soon. It would good to see mokko after all these years.

[@Chronomancer3791]

Duppy everywhere around de so. 😳

[@deandamon9922]

Ratty is gonna be a rock star! Coopy is a machine! love these dudes. Matt, mad props.

[@zaza_ftl]

The mushroom is the Bridal Veil Stinkhorn, one of the few edible varieties. Can grow up to a foot tall!

[@BlindMellowJelly]

No that is informative.....It looked tasty

[@Bellz972]

Learned last year not to touch unknown, intresting looking plants after I nearly touched a Giant hogweed 😱😱😱☠️

[@iLLi_Nois_Jake_b00st]

Looks almost exactly like a half free morel but that veil is awesome an crazy looking. Any idea if it tastes like a morel?

[@AAHomeGardening]

Wow, that's interesting Really beautiful mushroom 🍄😍 indeed

[@zaza_ftl]

Blessings from Liverpool England 🙏🏻.

[@florencechin6509]

Great Vlog Matthew! I believe there's gems in rock form near that river spring. The river spits them out during heavy rainfall. I saw Backpacking Simon pick up one such rock and I nearly died when he threw it back in the water. I saw a lookalike rock in a museum in North Carolina. A Ruby worth hundreds of thousands!!!🤭

[@yayo4nasal]

Coppys such a bad ass. Barefoot and everything lol i love that hes just OUT-out. Keep up matttyewwww

[@bengtal]

Stinkhorn ! ya you got it, genus Phallus, and yes it makes sense 😂 they actually start to smell pretty fishy early on in their cycle, I think that's why they're called stinkhorns. Very beautiful hike you guys are on. Bless up !

[@andrewdavid5264]

Matthew a true ambassador for the nation... bless up 🔥🎯💯🇯🇲🙏

[@carolinelove8227]

[@RasKitchen]

No this one is called Ladyfield! Theres a video on Friday coming up with some more info ;)

[@barbj672000]

I just looked up the mushroom. Its called "The Veiled Lady"

[@TheEverlastingBliss]

"This is Giant !" best comment on the building.. because you never know who really built it.. nice piece of hidden History and great adventure !

[@CourtneyMinors]

The great house is the Sunning Hill Estate c.1770 owned by George Paplay of England. The estate primary crop was sugar operated by over 600 slaves, about half were male, no children were listed. The estate was passed to his son.

[@bevh4408]

Thanks for the info! Correction: You mean stolen by Paplay

[@talesframyaad9748]

Thanks for the information you are a valuable person

[@CourtneyMinors]

@@bevh4408 Lol. George Paplay esq. purchased the estate from a previous owner. It’s believed he sold it to Robert Cargill.

[@bevh4408]

@@CourtneyMinors slave owner? Stolen. No matter what he paid.👍🏾

[@CourtneyMinors]

@@bevh4408 we won’t comment on slave owner, a system of labor that didn’t start with the English. We’ll leave that there. This show is very interestingly entertaining.

Coopy with that matching drip. Ras kitchen is on the bucket list... Bless up!

[@mariacicarelli6238]

[@lindabrown0]

Poor Matthew's getting no quarter (lol). Keep up or get left behind. Slip or slide, God go with you......The red seeds are "John Crow" beads. Don't eat as they're poisonous!!!. As to the Great House...........Man moves out, Nature takes over............Nice Video.

[@gloriarobinson1869]

@2075 because there are no wild animals nor venomous insects in there.

[@georgiagonzales3769]

Haven't seen you in awhile. Nice to see you. 🤗🌴💯 When I lived in the USVI, soursop was my favorite too. When you find out, please let us know what kind of mushroom that was. Very interesting. Crazy how they got all the materials to build way up there.

[@yoshtg]

14:27 when you said "wow i found a crazy looking mushroom" i was exactly thinking about this mushroom. i have seen one of these before with a yellow net in south korea and apparently these are eadible. i was also quite fascinated by the net around it

[@RasKitchen]

Wild looking one! Kind of like morels

[@ukguy]

The net is usually hanging from the cap but this one seems to have come off.

[@justinbayola]

[@BlueshiftRadio]

The Ladyfield Great House ruin is the most prominent relic of the coffee estate which once stood on the foothills of the Blue Mountains. This two-storey, large-cut-stone structure is estimated to date between the late 1700s and the early 1800s. The house has two wings; the larger northern and the smaller southern quarters. These two sections are joined by an arch and a staircase leading to the first floor.

[@sharonfoxmould]

Where is this greathouse

[@BlueshiftRadio]

@@sharonfoxmould mostly deteriorated. They show the stairs that connected the two wings of the great house. Bless up!

Citrus usually comes in about late Nov, December, January. Soursop, bananas n coconut year round. Even if it's not opened u can put it down n it opens by itself in 1 r 2 days the ackees. U shd bring some bk to CA scald/boiled in zip loc.

[@Putty_Flash]

Hey Matthew, thanks for the great videos. This one is no exception, I think it added years to my life as I'm sure it has done for you and others. The area you're in going back to Portland has some of the most sought after herbs, my dad knows quite a bit about them, he lives in Portland where I'm from. Time waits on no man, neither does Coopie 😂 my humble respect to Ratty, a true general in training...⚡

[@dianalewis8548]

Nice jungle hike. I remember your vlog with you and Mokko hiking up there. There should be some info. on why the place was built and what was being farmed up there. Ratty looked a bit scared by that duppy comment Matt.😅 Alot of good fruits up there too. That mushroom is a type of fungus. Goggle it. Very unique. Stay safe until next time.
