*FULL Winter Garden Tour TIPS for Vegetable Gardening in Ground & Raised Bed Container Growing Food

[@Toulalu-rev310]

Thank you for the wonderful tour of your garden! Right now I’m looking out my window at newly fallen snow. Last week one day it was 61 degrees here and boy did that give me spring fever! It was so wonderful to take a walk through your green garden with you and Gary! Please keep the gardening tips coming! They’re so appreciated!😊

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

@@Toulalu-rev310 Stay warm, even here our weather changes minus the snow😊 take care, thank you ❤️

[@sandyjohnston9988]

It was a nice long overview ! A mini bonus too with Gary sharing!

[@GinaSiska]

I’m so thankful for you and Gary! I’ve been watchin both of you for years ❤ from Maryland

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

That is so kind of you, thank you so very much, happy new year❤

How absolutely wonderful! Thanks so much for showing us! The fog is so mystical, your gardens are spectacular ❤

[@jenniferjones4984]

May you both have a happy and healthy blessed new year

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Thank you so much, have a great 2025! 😊 ❤️

[@marilynm8812]

Nice to see Gary's garden again. Glad to see him back at work. No black aphids on your Nasturtiums. You should look for a used electric three wheeler or golf cart to ride up and down to canyon area.

Happy New Year Robbie and Gary.❤👍🇨🇦🙏

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Happy New Year Robbie and Gary ! I hope you had a Happy Anniversary . You have a year on us , we just celebrated 30 years.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Yes, nice quiet day ❤Happy New Year to you too! Congratulations on 30 years! 🎉

[@Dee.C]

Your gardens inspire me and relax me while we are starting to get into our coldest months of the year and right now we are freezing . January and February are brutal here in SW Oklahoma near the Texas border. Look out for Valentines day here , it can be the worst snow and ice .

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Well you rest and stay warm and try to just enjoy the “down time” till garden season comes. Happy New Year, take care❤ Thank You

[@Dee.C]

Happy NewYear!

[@SunshineCountryChickens]

Wow those potato baskets Gary made thats what I will do for my potatoes! I hate to waste a felt grow bag on a potato lol! Happy New Year! I really needed this long tour got me through the loss of a special chicken Shelly a barred rock she was 9 years old and had a great life and gentle passing. Thanks for everything Robbie and Gary!

[@geraldineheywood1728]

Happy New Year. So happy to start this new year with you 😊

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Funny, this video was so long it took hours to render and process, so I had to wait till morning to make Public 😂 Gary told me to make it shorter, I said no let’s go for it for the first one of the year😊❤️

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Happy New Year❤

[@GrandmaSandy]

So much for sharing a wonderful video with us today

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Sorry, I will have more videos on gardening and the hummingbirds ❤️

[@rgb5031]

What a wonderful garden tour. Thank you so much for sharing your delicious eye candy for hungry growers hearts. I find it so soothingly therapeutic to be transported through your gardens as you share your thoughts, plans, and hopes for the 2025 growing season. ~ A thought regarding 'shaded coverings' (organic and man made), I know they do 'seem' problematic during (less warm) times, however, I also find that they're the difference between survival and death of plants during the hot times of the year. Reflective lighting can be very helpful key. (I've even used tinfoil oven liners at times). I like your idea of the small reflective balls set in potted plants, (it's inspired me to try covering little D.Tree ping-pong balls with foil, as they may provide plants with reflective lighting, and possibly be an insect deterrent also).

[@terrykunst3883]

WOW, talk about fog! this is so awesome!! I'm going to watch it again, thank you! Absolutely love the kennels too.

[@408Dolly]

🎉🥳🎊Happy New Year!❤

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Thanks! Happy New Year to you as well! 😊

[@tammykunz7195]

I just love your content and your awesome personality. I live in upstate NY so seeing your plants is so uplifting. 😊 knowing that the hummingbirds are well is great. I won’t see them until May.

[@gratefulmin1180]

Happy New Year Robbie and Gary!! So grateful for your channel, my Mom and I still learning from your old videos, and new ideas on most of your recent videos. Have a question, why not use clear green house plastic on top of the dog cages instead of the tarp? To let the light in. Love the idea of the dog kennels to protect the plants👌🏼

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

We have been thinking of putting something else on top that’s more clear, but right now I want to use what it came with. I may change it up later, but we’ll see how it goes with this. Here in the summer we get very hot so I’m thinking this could even help the plants. But that is a great thought and it is something we have been both thinking about here. Thank you so much. Enjoy the downtime in the cooler months now because garden season will be here before we all know it. Happy new year and again thank you❤

[@lorisnyder8322]

I have tree roots , health problems, don't want to give up gardening, live in northern michigan. Going to try this! Anyone else do this in colder weather? I worry about worms in the tubs in winter. Do the tubs freeze and crack? Thanks Robbie and Gary for your videos!!

[@kleineroteHex]

My tubs have held up so far, in PA. Just make sure water can run out and they have soil in.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

@@kleineroteHexthanks so much for your comment ❤❤❤

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

This is worth talking about, great question. I believe they will do fine where you are, but if you want, you can go a little bit better and get the extra heavy duty and I know those will be wonderful. And don’t worry about the worms if they’re not happy they’ll leave or they’ll go more towards the center of the tote where the soil will still stay a little warmer ❤

[@lorisnyder8322]

Thanks everyone

[@Toulalu-rev310]

I’m in south central NY. I was wondering the same thing about the totes. I’ve had ceramic pots crack in the coldest part of the winter here.

[@susanjordan2130]

You do have a piece of heaven. Happy new year💖

[@EasyZ-p1e]

Happy New Year Ribbie and Gary

[@karoleg3366]

Halo new year another year of tote and tulle growing with you two 😊

[@debclark4512]

Thank you for the wonderful tour. Just love your gardens. My gosh, maybe you need to find a food bank to donate shark fin squash to. They sure are prolific.

[@jackierandle8412]

Hi Robbie!

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Hi Jackie ❤❤❤

[@knitswithdirt]

I no longer have a yard to garden and have switched to houseplants (and developed a Hoya obsession...) but I still enjoy watching your videos! I do have container fruit trees in my patio but there is very little sun back there as the patio is right at the back of an office building. No idea how they will do in the long run. Really miss the big backyard I had before.

[@CrazyBob1357]

Happy New Year to you Robbie and Gary 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤ Bob C.

[@nancyphillips6446]

You could install shelving on the inside of those instead of using chairs. Use heavy duty zip ties or use adjustable metal worm clamps such as used to hold dryer vents in place.

[@debbiegallett1125]

I have trouble with sharpie pen disappearing off my labels. But I have found that Posca acrylic paint pens are working great.

[@a.p.5429]

Same.

[@terirachelsims8928]

Happy New Year!

[@debtaylor4172]

Thanks for your tour . got idea for chayote from Gary, I picked over 140 from one plant. It took over our fence. Shared a lot with our spanish friends. Most anglos don’t know what to do with them. They’re so Good for you,! Robbie I got 2 stainless hoses and love them. Thanks for tip about them. Happy new year. It’s 80 down here in Escondido 😅

[@jlseagull2.060]

Wild chayote (thorny ) is the best!

[@yovandarodgers9224]

Happy New Year look forward to seeing more videos

[@LauraRowley-j4l]

Great tour! I keep looking for totes and chairs but seem to miss them, I guess. Or all of the Florida people are using them, themselves .

[@jlseagull2.060]

Wait for spring or summer when people throw them out.

[@LauraRowley-j4l]

I will keep looking...

[@ptreadway39]

Hi Robbie. I do love your garden and all of your ideas. I've copied so many of them. I ordered 4 cuttings of tree collards, 2 green and 2 purple. I ordered them from "tree collards project" and they have all rooted, so now I just have to decide where to plant them. I would love it if you could do a video on how to use tree collards for cooking. Just wanted to say thanks and Happy New Year 🎊🎉🍾🥂

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Sounds great! Wait until they all take off and you have lots 😊❤️ I will do a video on tree collard this year❤️

[@Verna-m3i]

I was thinking. Your wall would be great to erect a couple of trellises to grow passionfruit, choko, or any other perennial or seasonal vine. Sweet peas would be nice to add a splash of colour between the green. Just a thought.

[@pawamore4047]

Hello Robbie, Do you juice papaya leaves?

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

I have not, I have so many other greens that I just haven’t bothered with the papaya leaves. Thanks happy new year.❤

[@helensmith9265]

Happy new year Robbie & Gary!!! I got you beat when I went to a thrift store & spotted some yellow tulle a big bolt for 3.00. I got a big bargain. I started getting totes at thrift stores. I do need irrigation tubing. Is it 1/2”???? Great tour y’all. 15:29

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Is this how you are starting off the new year 😳 #2 😂 Happy New Year

[@a.p.5429]

Robbie, that yellow plant in Gary's garden looks like jasmine. Double check before you add it to yours. It is poisonous to honey bees. Enjoyed the tour. I'm in Piedmont NC, we have almost nothing growing but greens. Spring is around the corner. It's snowing right now.

[@Verna-m3i]

Happy 2025 Robbie! 😀 Robbie, how did you make your rotating strawberry tower? I have a lot of trouble trying to grow strawberries 😮‍💨

[@hopemorrison2367]

Wow you come up with so much unique garden ideas but how much food can u and Gary eat

[@juneramirez8580]

We just lost one of our 3 chickens to a coyote. It jumped over two fences to get to them. This Sat. my boys come for a work Sat. so we will be covering the chicken run as best as we can. Unfortunately coyotes can show up anytime day or night. The chickens are now locked up at night with food and water so if I don't get to them early, they can eat and drink! We can only do so much and nature is out to get us! In my case my neighbor saw the attack but could do nothing.

[@Verna-m3i]

Robbie, I was wondering, perhaps the avocado tree can be kept arm length height, and by keeping it in a tote the roots will be sort of bonsaid only they will be growing in the nutrient rich soil you make, adding a new bottom layer, or transfering to a new tote that has already prepared compost in it every 1 or two years. In a few years it should start to bear fruit. The fruit might be smaller or bear a comfortable small crop. What do you think?

[@KariMoon3568]

❤ROBBY WATCH THAT FOG PLEASE!! 🙏 IM IN MINNESOTA..WE HAD FOG for 2 WEEKS! I didn't feel ill lk people complain about but DO check your air filters every few days😮

[@karoleg3366]

Morning Fog. Sounds like Berkeley

[@vickymyers3804]

Robbie please either use or just take the tarp roof off. If that stuff starts shredding on you it will be horrible it will get every where. A fellow I used to work for had blue shreds every where from the neighbor's dog's roof. Just cover it with your tulle or clear plastic or glass.

[@LGGGlove]

What’s the name of the camera and where did you get them from?

[@jlseagull2.060]

I cannot do bird feeders😢 A neighbor is feeding the squirrels in the neighborhood. Then the feeder also attracts 🐁😱 They even raided my garage where I kept amaranth seeds 😢 Now I have a mess of mouse droppings everywhere in the garage to clean up😤

[@ann7318]

Enjoying your video, but I nodded off and heard a strange dog barking. I thought it was in my yard, so I got my coat to go outdoors in the snow and see about it.... When I shut my computer, the barking stopped.. No problem. I already have 6 dogs, and people dump them here. Sometimes a neighbor's dog gets loose (and she lost two last year because they got hit) ... Nice to hear your dogs barking though. I like your dogs.
