I am forever sticking seeds here and there never to remember where they are... I hope you remembered them!!!!!!!!

[@katrienvh4289]

The best crop to plant after where your carrots have been are potatoes! If you plant garlic where carrots have been, you are planting the same kind of veggies at the same spot and that should be avoided. you can find good crop rotation schedules online. Another very good thing to look at, are companion planting. My father used to plant unions next to potatoes, but those plants don't like each other so they don't help each other grow. Onions next to carrots work great (they fool the pests, onion flies get confused by the smell of carrots and carrot flies by the smell of onions. A great thing to do is to plant basil under every tomato bush!

[@tammielewis2438]

Could you take us along when you make your horseradish sauce?

[@danoneill2846]

Great Job !!!!! Many thanks !

[@marciathompson1237]

I have been saving seeds all my life, started when I was 4 years old.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Like my kids!

[@danamama6766]

Awwww the word last made me sad. However I told myself as always the months will pass fast and soon we will see you planting seedlings and will be Spring and starting all over again. I am getting my some things dehydrated, and it will soon be plant the garlic. Then hunker down for winter too. Maple might also hear your voice talking and thinks you are talking to her lol. They are so precious. I love love large sunflowers 🌻Gorgeous parsnips. And I thought weeds were supposed to be just part of a garden (🙄) Mine think they are.....Very looking forward to the seed orders and garden plans. Thank you for this video. hugs

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Makes me a bit sad too, but I’m ready for a bit of a break. The winter is going to bring all kinds of more homestead related videos which will be a fun change.😊

[@danamama6766]

@@LittleMountainRanch Yes it will for sure :)

[@denisescull4227]

Your forest garden is coming along beautifully and I'm so glad that you show us the reality of it, weeds and all. Thanks Chelsea!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Lots and lots of weeds!!😂

[@ElderandOakFarm]

I am heavily mulching this year as well! The weeds were so hard to keep up with since I've started my little cutflower farm.

[@TheOldSwedesFarm]

You've got quite the beautiful area and lovely gardens! We just subbed to you! Cheers!

[@JW-es5un]

CHELSEA, SWEETHEART YOU JUST ARE BEAMING AS YOU ARE GIVING US THIS GARDEN TOUR. THE OTHER VIDEOS WHERE YOU JUST ARE GLOWING ARE WHERE YOU SPEAK ABOUT ALL YOUR CHILDREN.. Thank You for Sharing. I know this takes so much time & you seem to be such a busy Farmer wife & Mother.. GOD BLESS from Julie WEST CENTRAL IN USA FARMLAND ✝️🇺🇸🍂🌼🌾🍁🚜

[@dianneb208]

Your fall garden looks great. I hope the Abundance Kale seeds germinate well. For your weedy area - can your torch it? If its not too dry. That would remove some of the seeds. The cabbage is gorgeous - please show us a picture when you cut it open. Stay well.

[@pennyloughlin5098]

Hi from Fruitvale BC. Love your videos. Thanks

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Welcome!!

[@JaninesPlace]

I’m glad to see that my garden isn’t the only one overrun with weeds!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Lol! There’s more weeds than anything else at this point.

[@JaninesPlace]

@@LittleMountainRanch we had baby #4 this spring and I WAY overestimated how much time I’d have to be in the garden. I miss it sooo much!

[@TheOregonTale]

Your forest garden is amazing! My greenhouse looks exactly like yours. Lol. I need to clean it up now that it’s not 100000 degrees in there during the day. -Dede

[@lynsmith2698]

What a great video. The thing i love about your channel and you is.....you are so real. I love your forest garden and want to read up on them over the winter so i can make one in my beeyard/orchard next year. Thank you for keeping it real

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you so much for saying that. Making videos maintain authenticity and also be fun and beautiful isn’t easy sometimes, but it’s important to me that I never give the impression that everything is rainbows all the time. Thanks for your support.

[@vanessaadams9145]

I love seed saving!! Alot of work with certain plants but worth it 😊

[@poodledaddles1091]

Well Momma and Grandma must be proud of all you are creating!

[@sjsmith9637]

You should definitely post a video of your garden clean-up. I'm sure it will be a satisfying change with a reapplication of wood chips.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Ok, I will do that. It’s going to be a heck of a job! Lol

[@One29Homestead]

Heck yeah I want some of those seeds! Hope it works out.

[@harrietmartens742]

Lol, the same thing happened to me with my greenhouse where I start plants in spring. I had to do a major cleanup

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I’m on a mission to get it done this week!

[@joannak4640]

Very beautiful video of the end of garden season ❤️

[@sajmt1414]

Beautiful. I look forward to watching your garden tours.

[@dianemaybee5635]

excellent video again! so enjoy your gardens and share in your delight! Honeybees love catnip just as much as they love borage. Also amazing that you still have elderflowers on your elderberry bushes, have you tried elderberry cordial? I wait impatiently every spring for the flowers to show up and make at least 2 batches each year and freeze it in ice cube trays. mmm it is so delicious! especially during our long canadian winter. We are expecting our second calf any minute now and we are always grateful to you for posting that video on how you milk and calf share! God bless and keep you and your family safe!

[@sherriekemper1828]

do you think you could video the horseradish sauce process. I grew it and have no idea what to do with it. Thanks for your videos, I always love them.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Sure!😊

[@jobrown7647]

Hey Chelsea - Really appreciating all of the videos you've been sharing of late. I am also growing a Deadon Cabbage or two. I got starts from a local nursery to plant in a flower bed (at the request of my husband who though it would look cool). I've never grown them before and they are still beautiful and growing. From what you said I will leave them until a good frost. Thanks again for everything you do.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you for noticing my effort. Dan is home more right now which has allowed me to make more regular content. What started out as a hobby is working itself into a way to make an income, which is so wonderful for me!

[@GtJrGrowsItAlaska]

Thanks for sharing.

[@janecannon5567]

I saw you staked up the cherry tree. We did ours with a metal stake with a rope and old hose on it on the tree. To much work that way and mowing around.

[@futurehomestead1263]

Chelsea I would totally buy those Kale seeds. You should sell them!

[@bestbroker10]

I agree!!

[@drekfletch]

You didn't mention it, so I will suggest to leave some parsnips for spring harvest once you can get them out of the ground again. Winter sweetens them.

[@amandar7719]

Yarrow really does take over…. I’m a tad jelly! I’m only on my third purposeful Yarrow year. This year I spent a few stolen hours transplanting Yarrow seedlings having watched how it attracts teeny weeny wasps that attack a variety of veg garden caterpillars. Dill flower does same. Got loads of Dill flowering and going to seed this year. Oh! And does anyone know why I have loads of Swallowtail butterflies hovering around my UK garden this year? Haven’t seen Swallowtails for decades! 🦋🦋🦋

[@tremjm]

Chelsea will you be doing a video on making your horseradish sauce?

[@ecocentrichomestead6783]

Weeds in the perennials ...There's always an understory to the understory! The elderberry is an example where the tree line limit is dictated by how warm the summer gets. Not how cold the winter gets.

[@amandar7719]

I tread hard down onto extra large parsnips and carrots. If you hand-push down (before pulling) parsnips or carrots, they loosen and extract nicely. Little effort. The only time I use a garden fork is with leeks on a cold winter morning. If anyone can tell me how to easily harvest garden bed leeks without a folk, I’ll give them my 120 year old heirloom fork…. 😃👍🏻🏆

[@LittleMountainRanch]

That’s brilliant! I’ll give it a try!

[@Bev437Sqn]

Love your videos. So much information presented in such a beautiful way.. Thanks for taking the time to help us newer gardeners. Can I ask where you got your Comfrey roots or seeds. I can't seem to find a source.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I got them from my sister. Are you in my area?

Hi Chelsea. How do you "cope" with horseradish? I only saw 1 plant. In my garden the plant is everywhere and it grows like weeds. I also love to eat horseradish but they invade the area. All the best to you.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Mine was planted 4 years ago and hasn’t spread at all. Things don’t seem to be invasive up here the way they are elsewhere.

[@amandar7719]

Around where I live, do-goody “foragers” take truck loads of elderberry flowers early summer to make elderberry cordial 😡😡 Leaving S*A to convert into berries. There used to be plenty for everyone until foraging documentaries and youtube lefties became a thing.

[@gardeningperth]

What about allium and brassicas?

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I’m not sure what you mean? Are you asking about the nutritional requirements?

[@marciathompson1237]

If you put a net over your Sunflowers the birds want be able to get them.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I don’t mind feeding the birds. I always plant enough to get enough seed to plant again next year.
