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 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.
@FromScratchFarmstead28 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!

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!

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.

It is still *technically* "sour cabbage". Whomever told you otherwise can go stuff it. Politely, of course. I love your garden setup.

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)
