I’m so happy I had the chance to grow up on a farm in India. I still grow plants in my backyard here in Texas now. This year, I had a lot of okras, tindoras, beans, etc.

Very well done. I especially like how the kids are involved in growing the food that they eat. They will learn food science, team work, the ecosystem of the earth, and so much more. Your kids will have the advantage of so many more life experiences (and memories) growing up on a self-sustaining farm than us who grew up in the cities. Keep up the good work.

I so enjoyed this! While both my husband and I grew up with gardening and animals, for a number of years after we were married,we didn't own our place to where we could do much of that. We have our own little homestead now and last year got some animals and did some gardening. This year we expanded some, and want to continue to add things as we can. This video was so helpful and inspiring! I really enjoy all your videos and feel like I can learn a lot. Much blessings on you and your family!

I really appreciate the video and information. I've watched the video half a dozen times now and am planning to implement once we get our recently purchased 51 acres of trees cleared out enough to start. I came here for the 3-sisters information and will most likely start with that since that seems an easy place to start. In case anyone else wants to know, I've scribed down the following for my information and wanted to share; A circular mound of dirt (about 2-1/2 too 3' wide), about every 4', 4 corn per mound about 6" apart, about a week or so later plant 4-6 bean per mound, and plant squash between the mounds. Great activity for kids! Can even use a ~6" x 6" Magnetile square 🙂 : Butternut : Oaxacan Green Dent Dry and grind into corn meal for baking and porridge. Be careful not to cross pollinate with other corn plants if you are trying to grow for reseed next year. : Cherokee Trail of Tears Buy from Seed Savers Exchange? : Adirondack Blues or Molly, and Carola... And Elba for better winter storage.

Watching videos of planting potatoes I see whole seed potatoes being planted. I am 68 yrs old and I grow up planting gardens and canning. I still can sometimes. But with planting potatoes my grandpa taught me to cut the potatoes with 2 or 3 eyes per chunk to plant. Maybe it's to expand the amount of hills. It was the depression time that grandpa lived. We did grow a lot of potatoes.
@FromScratchFarmstead
@FromScratchFarmstead 28 күн бұрын
Yes, you could definitely cut them smaller. We had so many potatoes to use for seed and many were on the smaller side with only a few eyes on them so we opted to keep them whole this time. Thanks for sharing, that's really special that you were able to do that with your Grandpa!

My friend planted out 1-2 acres a yr every spring She had 9- with lots of hungry teens too There was never anything in her fridge as all food cooked for a meal was instantly devoured and even a pint of mayo made up for a meal would get just about eaten. Mustard might kick around in there. Jam sat on counter with the pb as the jar was gone in 2 days. 6 loaves of homemade bread a day. Kids were skinny, not fat!

For me “Tigers eye” and “Painted Pony” are the dried beans that give me the best harvest. I’ve tried many, many, but in zone 3 these are now my regulars. For sweet potato slips, I’ve come to always grow my own instead of purchasing. The time it takes for the purchased slips to recover and start growing again can be used for actual growing of my homegrown slips…but in zone 3 I have to over-focus on time since it is a true race from last frost to first frost. Just part of the fun of gardening!

In the 70's, 80's, a man in NJ, funded his retirement from growing seedlings, and his one acre garden, and greenhouse, and even his own compost. His compost, was the best dirt I've ever got. His wife, made dolls, etc. They did great, they died with money, even after the wife spent some time in a nursing home.

I am so happy to have come across your channel, we have a lot in common. We too, tried to grow everything when we first came to our homestead and now we try to plant what we eat and more of the winter staples. Your corn is such a pretty variety, for us painted mountain corn seems to do really well. This spring we planted it again from seed I saved MANY years ago, too many to cont, and because it was so old I planted two or three? in some holes, the germination was so good I will have to thin it out. We also plant a variation on the 3 sisters, but in our rows. We plant a corn and a bean (usually Aunt Emma's dried bean) together then a squash every four hole, it has worked so well over the years, and really maximizes our space. Love the video, you have a new subscriber here.

Have you thought about an area of permaculture with layered perennials? blueberries, asparugus, walking onions, strawberries, horseradish with companion planting, garlic ect? Or an area of medicinal flowers, teas, comfrey, borders to attract pollinators? Only asking because it's a dream we hope to take some time and start little by little. I have many of your videos to checkout yet. -John's wife

We have been slowly adding more perennials to our property, asparagus, rhubarb, herbs, some flowers. It's a work in progress, a little bit each year as we have capacity. But I agree, perennials are definitely the way to go!

So many good tips n ideas thanks for sharing! What a nice little family you have. I like to ferment some of my peppers. It makes a wonderful garnish in the winter when fresh food is scarce. Beets and radishes make wonderful ferments as well.

Wonderful! I also planted too much and had so much food I couldn't use, years ago when my children were small. Live and learn! I need to go out and get the last of my seeds in, I have sunflowers and marigolds I want to throw in the ground. It could still work! ;)

just subscribed due to your description of your realization - it maps exactly to the mistake I was just about to make: "buy a new house, have a big garden" - WRONG lol 😆thanks for the deep insight, I love the tractor purchase - excellent move - you can move dirt too - I was thinking of getting a high end riding mower that could double on some small tractor tasks but having that front end load means you can create swales, and a hundred other things.. many thanks and may you have a fantastic crop this year, thanks for sharing ❤

Put that pull cord on the shelf , and use an impact gun to start your tiller. Much, much easier.

"Sauerkraut" literally just means "sour cabbage" in German. It doesn't matter if it's red cabbage or green cabbage, if it has carrots or garlic or caraway seeds in it. It is still *technically* "sour cabbage". Whomever told you otherwise can go stuff it. Politely, of course. I love your garden setup. Especially the chicken tractors incorporated into the system felt like a lightbulb moment for many of us viewers.

Incase you didn't know Basil can also be used to make tea. And you can grind and mix it with butters and oils to freeze and use later. (as with most herbs) I just recently started making tea with my fig tree leaves, never knew you could before.(and believe me it has plenty of them lol)
