This made the garden feel like HOME | VLOG

[@slh9564]

This was a video about gratitude. It's a very appropriate emotion to feel for all the blessings you showed us today. It made me smile from start to finish.

[@alyselaurel]

What an amazing surprise reveal!! Seeing the pavilion and hearing your words today brought me to tears. I'm so happy for y'all 🥰 It's been a joy to see the transformation of raw land blossom into your vision. So grateful you include us along the way. I'm currently in season of my life where I'm dealing with my own autoimmune battle and it's been incredibly nourishing to be here with y'all. Thank you 🙏💖

[@robertlamb5105]

Glad you're getting your garden spot started. You've been working on the Roots, and now you're getting your Refuge. Good for you Jess!!

[@kellytalley7180]

Friends dropping by is a great testimony to the love you guys show. Your boys are blessed to have good examples of men. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of this.

[@misslussier]

You and Jeremiah holding that baby were *total* Nanny and Papa vibes! You guys have obviously have so much love for her!

[@285113z]

Wasn't that just so adorable?? 😍

[@deewinston5651]

Oh Jess, yes it looks like home. I knew one day, it would become your dream garden in real life. Y’all, with all your helpers, are building a masterpiece. What a vision! What a beautiful space. Thank you for sharing this dream come true with all of us.❤️✝️🙏

[@janicegilman7672]

When I miss your Arkansas garden and your “Goatie Girls”, I just go back and watch the old episodes. They make me happy!

[@cheyennemckoy2160]

Not me crying at “we get to be nanny and papa” 🤣🤣🤣 so precious. This video, Daniel, the nostalgia and all of it made me emo lol

[@lindaborn2336]

The pavilion takes the raised bed garden to a whole new level! I can't wait to see this area grow this year!

[@anneburdette6037]

I’m continuously amazed at how quickly y’all’s farm has developed, seemingly without anxiety and worry, although I know your lives have had different problems. I know editing has been amazing but I think mainly you and Miah take everything to the Lord. Thank all of your family for your witness!

[@thomasonmike7170]

Hi pretty woman. How are you doing today? And how is the family and the weather over there?

[@CopperIslandHomestead]

Sounds like an amazing week for you all 🥰 And the pavilion definitely brings an amazing feel of "Jess" to the gardens ❤️❤️❤️ Even without health issues, you guys have accomplished a monumental amount in such a short time. It's wonderful watching it gradually unfold like a seedling on its birthday 🌱

[@julesa245]

Hi Jess, What a lovely happy collection of family and good friends. Makes me wish I wasn’t such an introvert. However I love the quiet too much. Just my garden, my schnauzer and I. ( I do have a husband and full time job too!)😂 I really like your dress, where’s it from please? Maybe isn’t available in the uk but who knows? ❤

[@leeannandrews932]

I planted potatoes & peas yesterday. Harlow is beautiful

[@braheemmonroe11]

I'm happy the ducks in your life are lining up for you. I can't wait for mine to do the same!!! 😇😇😇

[@ninaleffingwell9184]

It's 18 degrees with a windchill of 9 today here in Michigan.

[@howardbarber2451]

I wish Jeremiah would make youtube for all he does would love to see some of your farm like & things he doing and building. Everything is looking so nice. The kids are going to have so much fun on the new dock. The garden building is beautiful will be so nice when done. I LOVE your farm etc.

[@lisbethwiseman1558]

Nanny and PawPaw made my heart melt. What a precious honor. ❤️ love that you’ve had a warm and loving week. Bless you!! 🥷

[@thomasonmike7170]

Hi pretty woman. How are you doing today? And how is the family and the weather over there?

[@ouachitafarmacy]

Run don’t walk to buy a Greenstalk! We love all of ours.

[@sarahkelly4026]

I believe the site has crashed

[@rayyoung7780]

That pavilion is beautiful. You are right. It brings the whole space together.

[@sueglovan8344]

Thank you Jess and family for sharing with us all. My brother went home to Jesus on 2/11 and I’m grateful to see your family smile. God bless you all.

[@paulipotgieter]

I appreciate so much that you convert the temperature to Celcius. It means I don't have to stop mid video and convert it myself to understand you better. Thanks Jessica- very considerate of you

[@nataliecartier8933]

I find it so refreshing to hear you say that you didn't film because you wanted to be present in the moment. I so often want to tell KZbinrs to put down the camera and forget about us for that moment and just soak in the memories with their loved ones. 💕

[@FiveCanadianAcres]

The "KZbin" seed has a long germination rate 😄Thank you for sharing what you do, you have inspired me in many ways (both in gardening and in life). Your joyful energy comes right through the camera and is spread around to so many people. Honestly, one of the best feelings in life is seeing those little seedlings pop through the soil, lol. So excited for your garden this year, it's going to be another great summer of living and learning. Blessings to you and your family ❤

[@Meg_Davis]

That's just it ^_^

[@WildHopeHomestead]

Love it! I'm going to keep reminding myself that my KZbin channel is germinating.😄

[@kimclayton7728]

So wonderful old friends are helping build the dock!! They will forever be part of the homestead!

[@thomasonmike7170]

Hi pretty woman. How are you doing today? And how is the family and the weather over there?

[@heatherklotzbach4905]

I love it. My cousin would do this to us. The world stopped when he showed up and we did whatever he felt like. It was being a kid again for me and it was his healing time to be with people who don't complicate things. Not everyone has that in their life! Relish in the time.

[@paperchaser9565]

Banana trees in each of your circular metal bins, they will look awesome. True, we all miss your last Arkansas garden...it was your work of living art! We watched you create it. Now, we will watch you create living art again! ❤❤❤❤

[@lindaglenn6129]

The Pavillion looks fantastic! You are such an inspiration for so many!

[@thomasonmike7170]

Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the weather over there

[@fishnapples]

Oh Jess... I'm so happy for you. Not just growing something lovely, but your husband building something lovely💜💜

[@georgiavanhouten9360]

Ah Jess, What a beautiful life,Y'all make me cry with gratitude, Our God is an awesome God,Thank you Father for loving this Family.

[@rebekahmccabe3195]

“The pavilion feels like home.”We couldn’t agree with you more. Well put!!❤

[@ginnysulya9805]

Wow! What a beautiful blessing! Sometimes we just need to feed our souls with fellowship and time to enjoy the blessings of a day’s accomplishment! Enjoy and be blessed! 🙌🙏💖

[@melaniemohler3634]

The gazebo grounds that growing space. It provides shelter and a community gathering space. Most importantly, it is the center of that growing universe. ❤

[@tasteofheavenhomestead8553]

So happy that you are surrounded by family and friends that you love and who love you in return! What a lovely life the Lord has blessed you with!❤

[@LS-iz1wi]

You brought tears of happiness to my eyes... seeing the pavillion, talking about memories, picturing your personal electic touch scattered throughout the garden. I can definitely see it...the best is yet to come and I can't wait!

[@joyces.9021]

Looking at you guys in your shirt sleeves and playing on the water when we are navigating minus 20plus Celsius temps here in Alberta, Canada...not jealous haha

[@tbrown2302]

I’m amazed with how much you have accomplished in just two years. House, barn, greenhouse, pavilion, raised garden beds…. all the while dealing with an intense health issue. Thank you for sharing your journey. Blessings.

[@mountaingardenamma8730]

The pavilion is a major impact! And yes, so much has been done on the now farm. It’s beautiful - visually and purposefully!

[@thedurochers4970]

Your old garden was relatable, probably why people miss it and the content you created in it.

[@pattyharker2540]

Thanks for discount code♥

[@debiebrumley3104]

you are so funny when you see the seedlings , love it ! and you deserve your farm and so much more to come.

[@hopewellinfo3321]

Every new thing on your farm is a time for rejoicing for me! I love all that you share-especially the beauty of your family and friendships! ❤️ Congratulations on all you are achieving! God is evident in all that you are doing!! ❤️💕❤️

[@renattaburke3500]

Please bring back the pink garden gate. I have that magnet on my fridge, and it was my favorite part of your old garden. I miss the coziness of your old garden, the feeling of shelter.

[@theIAMofME]

AGREE!! Bring back THE PINK GATE.

[@SmallSeeds]

I'll never forget the first garden tour I watched of yours back in 2018. It was such an inspiration and just beautiful and calming to watch. It really looks like you're bringing back some of the old garden elements but it will be even better this time. It's been amazing to watch your journey for the past 5 years. Glad it's starting to feel more like home! Much love to you and your sweet family!! 💚

[@MarciesWhimsySoaps]

Awww! Nanny and Poppa!💜 Arent gbabies the bestest?! Beautiful! Yes, Ive so missed your old, graceful, beautiful trellised garden! It made me love gardening. 😊🌻

[@charitysmith5245]

Oh yes, the pavilion makes it officially Jess’ garden! Girl, it looks great…friends with skills are #1!

[@thomasonmike7170]

Hi pretty woman. How are you doing today? And how is the family and the weather over there?

[@susanrichards4844]

Oh WOW! The pavilion!!!!! This is truly home. I’m so happy for you!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌞

[@LoveGrowLiveFree]

Thank you for all you do! 🥰

[@diannerichard2509]

It is so wonderful to see your joyous smile again and the smile on Jeremiah’s face when he is holding his niece is priceless!

[@courtneybrown7178]

Nanny and Papa 🥹 that gave me all the feels for a million different reasons. Makes my heart so happy! 💓

[@MayfieldRanch]

We are super happy with our green stalks.

[@reneemeyers2503]

I love the pavilion. I hope you have a squash that overtakes it like Jumanji! That was so fun at the old homestead! Everyone needs a friend like Jake and Dan.

[@katherinebelk8398]

WHAT?!?! Y'all are building your own lake deck?!?!?! Y'all NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME!

[@alyssamariebelk7203]

Just wanted to say I’ve developed such a love for you and your family, Jess. I relate to you so much and I also love the Lord and I can’t wait to come meet you guys eventually. We’re in the process of developing our two acres into a food growing machine so I watch your new videos every morning while I make my 6 kiddos their morning oatmeal. Also, my husbands a carpenter so this video made me laugh. Appreciate you guys more than you know 💛

[@jessicawoodruff3078]

You all have the best friends which is a testament to how amazing your family is. I'm particularly partial to Daniel. I love all the videos he's in. You should have a Daniel Playlist. His voice is so calming.

[@katherinebelk8398]

Thank you for giving the rest of the permission to continue to dream w the possibility the seed may actually germinate ❤️

[@caseydoodlegirlartforte2569]

I’m so glad you take time to be present with your family and friends. It’s so important to take that time. But as an avid viewer, I REALLY appreciate the bits you share like this! Thank you ❤

[@whisperjoy1128]

Daniel reminds me so much of my stepson, Zack! He's got this old, gentle soul who loves the country and fishing. Also, I am SO happy you're beginning to feel like home. That pavilion just screams JESS and she sits so perfectly in that space. I can't WAIT to see your content as your farm unfolds.

[@rainfalls2964]

I needed your smile today. 😊

[@rainfalls2964]

I have tears too now.... Your videos put my husband and I on a new (homesteading) path 3 years ago. And these have been our best 3 so far.

[@teresaclaiborn4426]

What a peaceful place that will be in the garden. Love all the family and friends that come visit.

[@cyndyalvarado3913]

I used to be able to live the life in the moment. Want a pavilion? Throw one up right here! Raised garden beds?? Put one here and here and there. After decades of hard construction work and now pushing 70 years old, it gets harder. The "want to" is still there. Execution, not so much. So I live vicariously through you and Miah now. Thanks for including me. Inside my head, my garden looks very much like yours. Reality is a little different. 'Tis the season of my life. No regrets. Still very blessed and grateful.

[@PinkTigger33]

I love how excited you get about seeing the baby seedlings emerging from the soil.

[@loristricklin7627]

Men are the funniest. One guy working the others on the bank telling story and jokes and basically standing around and watching!!!!

[@lyndaevans1132]

It D It DOES make the garden feel like home--so inviting....

[@turtle2212]

The pavillion really connected the garden beds to one masterpiece, amazing!

[@peggy1844]

You and Miah have opened your heart to people and you are reaping the benefits! At times I think this teaches viewers more than your gardens ❤

[@NatureGirl58]

Oh there it is.. jesses garden is coming to life. . The pavilion looks great so far and I can’t wait to see all the arches and plants back again… ❤

[@xtinatoni]

Jess you still never cease to amaze me with your ability to quickly translate F° to C° 🤣 love all your videos, thank you for all that you do. God bless you & your family sista!!

[@brittewater]

I love this new farm even more than the old. The old was special though, and one thing I did actually really miss was the sound of you opening your pink garden door. The pavillion makes it feel more like home.

[@sandraoconnor5700]

So happy for you for the Pavilion, and know you will adore having it❤❤ Nothing like true friends with hearts of gold❤❤

[@katiegleaves3792]

this was such a heartwarming video, filled with so much genuine love throughout. From plant baby birthdays, brother's birthday, baby, old friends and new... What a blessing. I've been watching your channel for many years now! Cannot believe it's been two years since you toured this property - WOW! And yes, it is really starting to look and feel like "home" especially with everything coming together with the gardens and new surprise addition! All while surrounded by friends and family. Awesome. Nice to hear you've had the time and ability to be fully present with your loved ones around you; cherish every moment you can get! And thank you for taking this moment to be present and share with us too.

[@theIAMofME]

I LOVE your reaction to sprouting seeds. LOL Today, for THE FIRST TIME, I have successfully sprouted my own Rosemary. You give me a seed, I can grow you anything! Except Rosemary and Lavendar. I've had the seeds in the freezer. So, that's the trick!!! I have two little rosemary babies sticking up. Now, I am hoping I don't forget about them and they die of thirst. They take FOREVER to grow from what I understand. That excitement truly never goes away. That "gasp" when you see it!!! JOY!

[@belieftransformation]

Thanks for bringing us along to see your wonderful family & dear friends! Great progress that you so deserve! Happy birthday to Daniel & have a wonderful weekend! Blessings to all 🤗💜🇨🇦

[@rowenakotelniski2603]

The changes that have happened since you moved are monumental! Love the look of the new pavilion ❤

[@Farmerbettyboop2]

Oh wonderful. Another great pavillion!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@riettedevilliers6592]

Thank you for sharing, this special time with family and friends that you love and hold dearly in your heart, with us . You are looking amazing and the love shines through 💞

[@GypsyBrokenwings]

When Harlow started making sounds my dog perked up. She misses grand babies.

[@emb54]

Yes! It's looking and feeling like home. Yaaaayyyyy. Enjoy beautiful lady ; )

[@marshashelley8668]

Yes, I do the same thing when I run into spider webs! And wow! Love your new gondola!! Fantastic!!

[@MelSr8]

I was so excited to see a pavilion in your garden again! A pink garden gate and a pavilion screams R&R to me. ❤❤❤

[@pennywv8636]

For those of us who don’t get free products and can’t afford the over priced green stalk products, by the stackable planters at dollar tree, they work great for a tiny fraction of the price

[@goingguidedhealing]

Wow! It looks so lovely. I'm so happy for you, Jess. I know other people are missing the old garden and old garden tour videos, but I hope they can also be excited and one day appreciate that we get to see this new garden unfold from it's very beginnings.

[@thenortonfamilyhomestead]

Even though it isn't exactly how your last garden was set up, I definitely see how proud you are of your garden. It'll feel more like home every year!

[@colleenbellscanadiangarden9180]

This video brings me so much joy! Seeing you with friends and family and your homestead growing into your HOME stead and seeing you smile as your passion and dreams come to life ❤️

[@jamjar5716]

Jess, everything is coming together so beautifully! What a wonderful place for gatherings of family and friends!

[@NanaSuze77]

That baby looks 100% Sowards. Cutie Pie 😊😊😊

[@tinatippin5705]

What an exciting week you have had. Friends and a pergola to boot. It is such a pleasure to watch you happy and thriving. A privilege as well to lift you up while the tough times have visited. Happy weekend!

[@louiseswart1315]

Can't wait to see your arches up with all your beloved knickknacks around your garden.

[@sunsetsky594]

Ohhhh, I applauded to see the pavillian going up 😁!!!! Yes, agree that is a big step closer to the "home" feel of your garden, something that gives it some more of that "Secret Garden" feel. That special place to go and just enjoy the garden.

[@roxannemayfield5122]

Ohh..8 just love when Daniel comes to visit. He has that comforting Bob Ross voice..lol

[@mccoolfarmandgarden]

This video made me cry! I love that everyone is there and that pavilion!!! It’s lovely!

[@Dorkramus]

Jo Hubbard-SW VA…what a great surprise. It will be wonderful to see you sitting and drinking your coffee under it. Also no wet camera…lol.. You all HAVE accomplished so much and it’s beautiful. Looking forward to seeing it finished. A wonderful pleasure having your friends being there and a safe dock for the boys. Bless Jake’s heart. 🍅🥒🫑🥬🥗☀️💐

[@Meg_Davis]

I felt it! The title said it and then there it was!! So wonderful to see your pavillion again!!!

[@wanderertimetogo348]

Your land is not developed over night. I love to see the progress. What a bunch of beautiful friends.

[@mikkileon6380]

Thank you so much for sharing with us. Just seriously thank you❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@sunsetsky594]

Sound feedback - When you were in locations where it was windy I could still hear you just fine, even in the greenhouse. I could hear the fans too but they weren't overwhelming, so I don't think the wind is a problem if there is something you really want to show us and it's windy, we can still hear you. :)

[@cindik8017]

I loved this vlog. Gratitude and humility set you and Jeremiah apart Jess. So happy for all you have been blessed with and look forward to watching it all grow to fulfill your dreams! Thank you for being a friend to so many of us and sharing your lives.

[@choirmom78]

Thank you for including us in the joy of being with friends and family. How blessed you are dear girl. The pavilion is spectacular already...the finished product will only be light years better. 🌻🌄💗
