Although I am in my seventies and garden less, every spring I plant something from seed ... I never tire of the thrill of seeing a sprout unfurling from earth. We are surrounded by miracles.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

It is such a miracle 😀 Thank you!

@@CelebratingAppalachia Ever wondered why you see corn in your poop after eating anything with corn in it? Here you go: *Foods such as corn often remain partially undigested. Corn has an outer shell made of an indigestible material called cellulose. The body digests the material inside of the corn and expels the hard outer casing in the stool.* Love your videos! Keep up the great work!

[@christyjohnson6967]

Tipper, I never miss a video and this may be ONE OF MY FAVORITES! You are first of all a true historian, which is so very important, but you are also a teacher and an inspiration. Your heart is pure gold, and during these times, we all need to sit at the desk in your classroom. Thank you. Blessings to you and your precious family.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

You are so kind thank you!

You got a LOT of seeds to plant! It’s a good thing Matt is taking a day off to help you. It will be exciting to see everything grow! Happy sowing!🍉🥬🥒🍅🫑🥦🥕🧅🥔

Completely forgot about crowder peas. We had them back in the 40s, 50s or early 60s seasoned and cooked with smoked ham. Always serve them with biscuits, crackers, and/or freshly baked bread. Mother made Navy bean soup, black eye peas, crowder peas, potato soup, chicken soup, tomato soup, etc. every Saturday with fresh baked bread. With 11 kids and Dad, She made a lot. Always Outstanding and Good.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you! We really like crowder peas 😀

[@turnapage7417]

they all are sooo good

[@GiselleRoebuck]

I suffer from the same dilemma. Lots of seeds. I started driving myself nuts with the whole "companion" planting thing this year. Trying to plant tons of vegies that get along. I have given up. They can just figure out how to work their issues out on their own. God bless you and your family.

[@Psalmonetwentyone]

I'm so glad that you get to put your garden out! I know you've been dreaming about it for months and I'm happy for you to get such joy from it. I hear people say, "I wish we could go back to the simpler times". I always think, " Just come to Appalachia, we're pretty good at simple. We value faith and family. We talk and walk and do life just a little slower, but it's such a good life!" God has blessed us richly and I am so thankful! Continued prayers for Miss Cindy and your entire family.

[@terrihart2133]

I planted my entire garden and the next morning I realized I forgot to plant my beets!😮 I pickle them every year and everyone wants them for gifts. So.....I got up and planted them every tiny little space I had. And added them to here and there. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

I hope they make!

All those pretty beans remind me of the story "Jack and the Beanstalk." 😂

[@lindathewordlady3204]

They are so pretty and I bet you all will have many yummy meals with them. I love butter beans. They were my Mom's favorite. And black-eyed peas. I have and idea to share that might help. One night sit down and take the marker signs that you were given and go ahead and label them and wrap them with the vegetable packets. That way that part is done and you won't forget what you planted. Wish we were physically able to plant a garden. Too many health issues but thankful God is seeing us through. Praying for your family. Enjoy your videos. God Bless.

🥒🍉🥬No green bean emoji ?! I eat green beans daily, nightly, sometimes with breakfast too💚

[@papaw5405]

From what I heard Debbie at Brysons say some of those seeds came from the Cherokee Indians. They could been handed down from their ancestors who grew them before the white men showed up here. The Cherokees grow the three sisters -- corn, beans and pumpkins. The beans climbed the corn and being a legume put nitrogen into the soli, the pumpkins shaded out the weeds so the corn could get all the nutrients in the soil. How is the lambs quarter doing?

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

I thought about that to Papaw 😀 Such history!! The lambs quarters are up about an inch. I hope they spread all over the place so I can have them from now on. I aim to help them spread a little when they get bigger 😀

[@judypatrick42]

Growing Up We Had Huge Gardens. Then We Canned All Summer Long. But Come Winter Time Sure Was Good Eating. I Hope Y'all Can Do A Video With Miss Cindy . I Have Been Praying 🙏 For Her, Y'all. I Took Care Of My Momma, Daddy,2 Brothers Until They All Passed Away. I Sure Do Miss Them.

I’m from Mississippi and you’re going to love the speckled butter beans so tender! You’re making me hungry for some good old fashioned cooking!

[@marthakemp127]

Your excitement about planting is palpable! I can’t wait to see what you find to be a “keeper” for future planting. Fresh peas and butter beans are consumed daily with rice here in the low country. I was raised on dried pinto beans and fresh green beans. I do love all the varieties of peas, but my go to is still pinto. I am growing Kentucky wonder, rattlesnake and Whitey Swanger greasy beans. I also planted baby bubba okra and homemade pickles cucumbers. I can vouch for the cucumbers-delicious, but the okra hasn’t produced yet. Happy gardening!

[@cindysmith1162]

Couldn't you plant should of the peanut beans in one of your new planters? That should make them taller and easier to pick. I know how Matt feels. My Mama talked me into going with her to a U pick farm to pick sweet green peas one time. Those people had not stalked those things at all. They were vines growing across the ground. We literally had to crawl on the ground to pick them. And she had have a five gallon bucket. Bless her. She loved her some fresh vegetables. I promise you I never complained about picking butter beans again. They were way easier then those sweet peas. Lol Bless you Tipper for sharing your knowledge of gardening and canning with us. It brings back so many precious memories of helping my Mama in her garden and kitchen. She loved to provide that wonderful bounty for her family just like you.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you! That would be a good idea to plant them in the beds 😀

[@dustyroselansall8185]

Mrs Amerson is a winter squash not spaghetti. Enjoy These garden videos. I was born and raised close to Cave City Arkansas where they grow some of the best watermelons. They tell me it is their sandy soil. You might try adding some sand. I won't even eat any others except from Cave City.

[@brendastajkowski502]

I always look forward to your videos. It's like visiting with an old friend.

[@Dougeb7]

Hey, Tipper! Looks like you got it "made in the shade" today! (It's so hot in Texas!) People like y'all, who live off the land, seem so "grounded," lol! I think our country was much saner when a large proportion of people lived rural, agrarian lives. I'm watching with interest as your garden progresses. :)

Another really good summer squash is "patty pan".

[@marlaschaefer9245]

Oh this is exciting, those Xmas beans looked like scar let runners. I let them get to big and they didn't taste very good so let them dry and added to my mixed soup beans and they were good tasting that way. Maybe you could plant rows of bush beans in the big raised beds.

A couple years ago, I planted some "sugar beet" seeds that were at least 42+ years old. They had been stored in a jar at a local museum since 1978. Before 1978, they had been part of a display the Grange organization had at the fair each year, so they could have been much older. They grew well. I was very surprised.

[@donnahawkinsharper8344]

Tipper, I grew up in Florida. We had big gardens when I was young. I always remember my Granny coming out to our house and bringing her seeds for us to plant. Golly how I wish I had some of those seeds, although we can’t have a garden where we live. Just not enough sun, so I keep the local farm stands in business getting my produce to put up/can from them. Not quite like picking it yourself but always appreciate the canned goods later on. Take care. Prayers for Miss Cindy. Hope ya get all your seeds planted this week. 😊❤😊🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I also have more seeds than places to plant. I focus more on food but I've got to have my flowers. While at the hardware store today I spotted a potted black petunia called black mamba don't see a black flower very often it is georgious. It now has a new home among my other petunias.
