Whenever I watch your videos I feel like: "Now here is someone living life right!" You're surrounded by friends and family that love you and appreciate you. You can see the support. He grew a 32lb melon... bragging on your friends! You're this example to the world that if you run around lifting up everyone you meet.. You're going to have a very blessed and fulfilled life. I love watching that. ❤

[@tamararfisher2127]

Well said!

[@FebbieG]

When my husband and I were dating, I asked him what his favorite fruit was. He instantly and excitedly responded, "peaches", and I was perplexed. From my experience, peaches were nothing special. Then, we visited his parents during peach season, and he made me eat one from their trees. Fresh peaches are the absolute best.

[@taberstockstill2681]

When you say “dudes! I have a joy to share with you!” My heart melted! What a life, indeed. 💚

[@maggiechrisman]

The pure joy in Daniel’s face that all he could do was laugh! THATS a good peach!

[@rachelgalus]

Last year I was mowing and all of a sudden saw a tree with big ripe peaches growing in our thicket. It must have come from my kids chucking peach pits up into the weeds while sitting on the electric box. The peaches were amazing and the best I’ve ever had. That’s a pretty special surprise here in Nebraska.

[@varpusaramaki4132]

Your enormous joy over your peaches has given me a great deal of joy. I love when someone elses joy gives me joy.😊

[@terilarson5416]

You are such a bright spot in my day. I absolutely love your laugh and watching you and Miah! Thank you for being you.❤

[@samanthahoos9827]

❤ I got questioned yesterday by coworkers as to when I was bringing in my leftovers from the garden. 😂 I’m tomato rich this week! So proud and smiling at all those that said I was growing “too many” plants. 😊

[@TACbaha]

Congrats, such a great feeling being in tomato rich season 😊

[@mercurybard9794]

I go around the yard every morning and pluck all the ripe cherry tomatoes and take them into work. Two of my coworkers are madly in love with the sun golds.

[@augustagootee6254]

Haha same I always got made fun of for eating a cucumber and pepper every day with my lunch lol

[@susanmcconnell6041]

I just LOVE starting 'too many' seeds!! I LOVE 'too many' plants!!! I especially LOVE TOO MUCH PRODUCTION!!! I share, share, share!!! I give eggs away, as well!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@monicamorgan2233]

“Woefully inadequate!” The exact sentiment that I experience standing in our orchard eating first fruits off the tree. This God…..❤

[@a.j.r_ball]

We saved the seed in hopes to get this thing germinated. The idea of a genuine Roots and Refuge peach tree at our home makes perfect sense to the Ball family!!

[@l.m.4014]

Oh Jessica... You were so smart to plant fruit trees, as soon as you moved to your new land ! { 🌱 🌳 🍑} Now, you and your family....have so many yummy peaches to eat. (in only abt. 2.5 years ) ( Organic too - and graciously sharing with your friends ) 🤗

[@trishapomeroy9251]

"Make gardeners out of your friends" BEST ADVICE EVER!!!

[@highfive9835]

What a sweetie Ben is. One bite and he immediately wants to share the joy with his Dad.

[@sharonbos3507]

❤ Oh! I had so much fun watching everyone's reaction to the peaches! So much fun!

[@fionaworrell4535]

Never heard you be so joyful and giggly in all the years ive watched!! Those are clearly incredible peaches,please let us know the variety ❤

[@carolhamilton5164]

My husband calls Jess giggle girl. ❤️🙏

[@christina995]

I must know the variety! For a fruit to bring so much joy! You are such a blessing to life! 🥹❤️

[@marandaranda]

DANIEL!!! In his element. He looks so happy! And working at that 🤣 You helped make that happen Jess! You help turn people’s lives from a normal peach to THE BEST PEACH! Life deserves to be juicy 💕

[@rejenlifestyle4485]

Jess, your smile, laugh and enthusiasm for even the smallest things brings me so much joy. Thank you. ❤🥰

[@helenpenner9899]

Lol lol who knew that ducks and geese could grow such good peaches 🎉❤

[@AnneQ-bk6wi]

A feast of peaches for breakfast sounds absolutely amazing. We planted peach trees last year, so in a few years I may get to experience this.

[@trudyschaaf9917]

There is nothing better than a sweet ripe peach off the tree! Made my mouth water!

[@Sclathrop09]

I love how Michael was all, "yeah, it's good." Until he found out you grew it then he's like, "😲🎉😃 YEAH!"

[@nickilyddane3473]

I so badly want to be your neighbor, go to the Market, sip coffee at Beulah and share garden treats!! What a joy that would be!

[@kathystarnes6744]

Oh my goodness! My mouth is watering watching you each peaches. I love peaches!! 🍑 I laughed out loud at you telling Will what the kids said about the praying mantis! Hilarious!💚💚💚

[@miseentrope]

"Zoe, how come you always cut your apples?" --Firefly Oh, sweet Miah, those peaches are the genuine article.

[@bevstegeman]

The white peaches are not supposed to be canned - they're not acidic enough - but they are delicious frozen.

[@rebeccadavis6812]

Love the very beginning of this video when you say "to the orchard please" and he says "Yes ma'lady" 🤗

[@kdeediana]

😂 Miah’s face when you bit into that peach, like he thought bad things might truly happen . So happy for you that you have wonderful peaches, they don’t grow where I live and I miss a fresh peach

[@amyb837]

I just LOVE how much joy they have for fresh food. A good peach is my crack 🥰

[@cathykillion6544]

You and your videos are pure delight!!! Sharing your peaches is so you. Like Daniel said. ❤

[@jennifergasiorowski7471]

The Peach Lean!😂❤

[@KimtheElder]

The slurp bite! Yummmmmm😃

[@kathleenguthrie5719]

Watching your vlog and I'm just grinning ear to ear over the joy that your peaches bring to you and all your family and friends 🥰

[@kristicook7140]

Awww...hate I missed the boys, the market and now those peaches!!!!😂Watching everyone's faces was just so satisfying ❤! Nothing like an amazing peach!

[@apiecemaker1163]

I just learned a few weeks ago at 58 that if you get stung by a wasp, you can put some bleach on a paper towel or rag and put on it within the first few minutes, it takes all the pain and swelling away. It has to be within the first 5-10 minutes of the sting. Learned this from a friend whose brother lays phone lines. They keep bleach in a bottle on their trucks when they get on yellow jackets and wasp nest. I was skeptical but it truly works.

[@edenacres]

Your joy is contagious and so welcome! I would be teary eyed too 😂

[@cynthiahofer2903]

Peach pie reminds me of my grandmother. I love your zest for life.

[@ohdarling6657]

Your boys are just so sweet! I love to see them enjoying real life, they are going to miss this farm when they grow older

[@debdd7]

This is the best video ever. My mouth was watering watching the peach eating. God makes amazing foods!❤️

[@pameladanese6837]

I so love seeing you share your peaches and your joy, Jess. Thank you for sharing and bringing me joy today 😊

[@enosyodermattieyoder4298]

You are one rich and blessed woman to have your own peach tree. And peaches on it. 🎉 Happy for you!! We've tried a few times but haven't been able to grow them this far north.

[@brittni827]

The end of this video, sharing the peaches with friends, you and them delighting in it... that's the joy of life. Beautiful

[@ziggy7077]

We called the peaches that grew at my grandparent's house "life changing peaches"!

[@dancnluc1]

I love peaches. I have never had a white peach. It was a win, win eith everyone. I love your wild garden.

[@terris6322]

Takes me back to being 8 and picking peaches off our tree in Hickory Hills, Illinois. I just turned 68 and I have never had peaches as juicy and delicious, warm off the tree. Thanks Jess and Miah. ❤

[@dhansonranch]

So fun! I can't grow peaches here, but I planted two apricots and have plums so hoping to have a similar experience in the years to come. But in the meantime, I stand at my Saskatoon Berry bushes every morning and me and the birds enjoy our fill (yes, a constant battle..lol..but they gotta eat too).

[@tsianiniapruitt6148]

I loved seeing the reactions to eating peaches from your farm. So delightful.

[@marking-time-gardens]

Oh the memories this video brought back!!! Thank you so very much miss Jessica! Blessings Kiddo! 🌻😬🌿💚🙏💕

[@jamierodriguez352]

You are our Peach Jess. Just wanted you to know that. ❤

[@j3hallway231]

Did y’all see the juice from that peach flying when Ben bit into it. 😂🤤 EPIC! Jess you must try to get a still of that shot.

[@jessicaclark4076]

Jess, when you said "I ate one the other day and almost cried" I felt that. I love that you have such strong emotions over things. I can relate so much.

[@taradouglas8648]

Plantain leaves on your wasp bites, right away. Chew up some fresh leaves and put the juice on your bites. Takes away the pain immediately and reduces swelling.

[@Joyfulfarmer]

The praying mantis!!!! I had dozens hatch in my car this year and it was a surreal experience. I surely did drive them home and put them in my garden. ❤️❤️❤️

[@nestahumphries5496]

This video made me smile so much. Happy little peaches 🍑

[@Clippiedippie]

Always a pleasure to catch up with the roots and refuge peeps!! Jess, can I also just say I love your hair and think you should grow the grey out 😍

[@shaysummers3520]

No joke on growing your own stone fruit! The best nectarine I've ever had is the one I allowed to grow on my less than a year-old Snow Queen this spring.

[@heathernotzdaniels6350]

Oh Daniel, you make my heart so happy! The look you had on your face about a peach from Jess, just so perfect! :)

[@augustagootee6254]

I love your enthusiasm in the garden i get like this and often poeple like ya the crazy garden lady glad there someone else out there get so excited

[@jAnEl1111]

And they bring your beautiful family joy!!!!

[@marybethwhalen70]

I have missed Daniel! It’s good to see he is doing well!

[@TheNataliesaurus]

I’m going to see this as a sign! I have looked at this dwarf peach tree at my local garden shop twice now, because I couldn’t decide if I should get it or not. And now here’s a Roots and Refuge video on peaches!!! I guess that means I should do it! Can’t wait!!!!!

[@anitamurphy2454]

We planted 8 fruit trees this spring, and 2 were peaches. They've grown so much already, and you've got me more excited. It's like Christmas in July! Going for the low chill cherries and Asian pears next spring.

[@thehamfamhomestead]

Chauffeur Miah! Loving this summer in Houston. Rain and below 100s, big change from last year!

[@cathyscroggins1420]

Yes, it feels so much better. I’m north of you near Conroe.😊

[@Myowndoing]

Gotta crack those stones open to get the seed. Then a little peroxide and water on a napkin in a baggie in the crisper drawer.

[@photographybybrianparton]

I've gotten around 10 gallons of peach halves in the freezer from my 3 trees this year. They are yellowish white like those, and they are sooo good. When it gets cooler I'll thaw them out and can peach jam and cobbler/pie filling with them.

[@jessicajordan680]

Jessica's joy is absolutely infectious! 😊 Watching people's eyes light up tasting her home grown pride and joy peaches (they should be renamed this, without a doubt) makes the heart so full. When gardeners spend so much time and effort growing food and in turn they can share it with others who truly appreciate it--- best feeling ever. 🥰

[@ChristineSorrell]

Epic peach bite from Daniel! That was great!

[@BettyBrancato]

You're killing me! I just planted peach trees this year and I can't wait for the best peach ever!!!! I hope mine grow as fast as yours- great job!!!❤❤❤

[@speranza8494]

I would love to have that experience again. Grew up with peach tree at my parent's home....Miss those home grown so much.

[@wandakirby7883]

Sweet Miah reminded me of Ben in this video 😊 I love watching Ben reaction when he tastes things from the garden ❤️

[@jaimebudzynski1131]

"Well you survived" I'm dying 😂

[@coryart]

I loved that you shared the joy of those peaches.

[@whitemageFFXI]

I planted plum trees this summer! I'm so excited! I can't wait to start getting fruits from them!

[@kimcritchfield5796]

I feel this way about all my fruit trees! I’ve been waiting to see this video since you planted them!! ❤❤❤

[@LottoLady]

I live in Charlotte, NC and watch your channel. I can say that SC peaches are the best in the world. Enjoy your lovely peach tree ❤

[@reneelavoie9807]

Thank you for sharing the experience. Priceless!❤

[@reneethompson523]

That was exciting! Love the joy on your face.

[@diannemiller4754]

Yum peaches! Mom used to buy 3 or 4 bushels of peaches. One bushels was for the family of 10 to eat freely 😊 Thanks for sharing the delicious peaches with us

[@debralowe6437]

I love this on so many levels, but most of all, the joy you had in sharing the peaches with your friends. I create canned food from recipies that go beyond simple food preservation with harvests from my garden or locally growers and also bake from scratch- all of which I give away to friends and acquaintances. There is no greater joy than hearing people tell me how much they enjoyed and appreciate that I share with them.

[@annbolandloveslife]

One of my favorite videos. I loved seeing the "family affair" of your kiddos eating peaches.

[@southofthesticks]

You go girl ! 💥🌿💜💚💜 (Geezzz Ben is getting so big) That blue and white shirt looks really good on you. You really suit it. Much love from OZ (again) 🙏💜💚💜👍🐨🇦🇺

[@tracyriley2397]

What a wonderful video, love all the laughter.

[@suzannegrimes9743]

That was an absolute delight!!! What a life you are living with your family. It’s amazing. I planned a vacation to Myrtle Beach during the week of the Farmers Market so that I could go to your farmers market, get a cup of coffee and take in the wonderful community that you have brought together!!! I will be in heaven if you are actually there ❤

[@ryannegavrila2492]

What a happy and fun video. I laughed so many times with you! Enjoy the yummy fruits of your labor!

[@Jessica-pn1dl]

Oh girl now I need to k own the name of that peach tree!!!!!

[@wholesoulmichelle]

We need to get back out there again! So happy for you !

[@joanneganon7157]

Hey Jess and Miah, Whoo Hoo 🎉 Peaches galore! JO JO IN VT 💞

[@Nancelot13]

Daniel's looking good 👍 He looks so happy!

[@growjoyfullyhomestead]

That's great! You're getting an orchard going!

[@paulfamilychronicles]

This video made my day! Those smiles on all those beautiful faces when they bit into the peach. LOVE! When we came to visit, we saw all kinds of tractors coming out of peach fields so we followed them. I was surprised that I was disappointed in them being that they were so fresh. I can't wait to find a fresh white peach!

[@joytotheworld2100]

Oh Jess, I am growing 12 peach trees on my tiny Enchanted wonderland lot. About 7 of them I grew from a peach pit I ate. Some people say don't do that because you never know what the peach will be. I say go for it. My goal is to feed my friends & family from my 38 fruit trees. Sending love

[@judysherrill2871]

Lovely video of a lovely family! Now I want a peach.

[@brittanyragon6033]

Dried peaches are soooo amazing its my favorite dried fruit!! This year in Washington is a bad year for them almost no peaches in our local orchards. So I totally have peach envy. They look lovely 😍

[@MarshaShelley-t3n]

Makes my mouth water wathing you all enjoying your beautiful peaches! Used to get them fresh from the organic orchatd neat me! But moved to n. Idaho over 20 years ago and really miss those peaches. Enjoy!!!❤

[@hannahallain]

This video brought me SO much joy!! Peaches are my FAVORITE fruit ❤

[@julie-annepineau4022]

There is something so exponential about sharing the joy of something you grew with others. Especially something that is that delicious! I have peaches, nectarines, and a few apples on my trees this year. I can't wait until they are ripe to taste them! Probably another month for me!

[@Victoria-Kerr]

Those peaches looked so good! We planted melons for the first time this year and I'm anxiously waiting for them to ripen so we can cut one open. Its been incredible watching them double in size every couple of days the last few weeks. They move so much faster than peppers and tomatoes lol. Also, just wanted to say that I love your hair at the end of the video!

[@kimwood6632]

I totally understand that excitement of eating a peach fresh off the tree that is so perfectly juicy! My grandparents grew them in Yakima Washington and every summer! Peaches and pears will forever be ruined as I haven't had that pleasure since. Enjoy!

[@CrazyCatLady-dx8uj]

Oh my goodness! I’m so jealous! I love peaches right off the tree! Praying mantis are great for pest control let alone not to mention they’re good luck!! Lucky Will!!

[@Mekare40503]

This video had me smiling ear to ear cause of all the reactions from your friends. Such a treat!! Peaches are the best!!
