Sweet Potato Harvest Follow-Up + New Plantings! W/ Jim Kovaleski

[@backwoodsbaby9729]

People who complain about Jim videos are insane. And literally do not see the value in growing food, so it really perplexes me why they are here in the first place! Id be perfectly delighted with daily Jim videos! I watch the old ones multiple times a week!

[@ayina111]

Only one complaint about him out of thousands. There will always be negative comments. Just ignore it. We all know whenever Jim is on the video we can learn so much from him. The number of viewers don't lie

[@jeff6899]

Agreed & Understood !

[@bigheartedgal833]

Seeing Jim opened my eyes about what was possible. It opened my eyes about what I can do, too, and I'm so thankful for your channel and the time you've spent with Jim. Thank you!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Awesome!!

[@nathanwall8169]

Pete is good clean education . always watch videos with Jim multiple times

[@scottcarr2871]

Jim is a market gardening profit. His message is pertinent and timely. The wise will follow in his ways.

Very true, I started out when I was 18 and 2 years later I got my back broken. Then when I recovered I went into gardening full time. It's those like Jim a Pete that inspire those who are looking for a new passion or calling that will make things better for them and the community. I am now 27 and have been gardening 9-10 years now. I'm hoping to get bigger and expand more in the future.

[@lisakukla459]

Similar story for me. I had a big deal surgery on my spinal cord with a super long recovery. Once I was up and around, I threw myself head first into growing. It's been 6 years now and I'm still full steam ahead. Even bought a camper & did work-trading on a couple farms for a year. I'm 40 and for the first time in my life I finally feel like I'm doing exactly what I'm supposed to be doing. Good luck to you in the coming season, and happy growing!

[@lisakukla459]

Livin the dream. I'm moving mountains so I can do this myself. Food security for myself, for my community, and showing them how to do it themselves in their own yards; It's all I want in the world. Thank you for showing that it's possible.

[@cpnotill9264]

Awesome to hear Lisa! 🌱

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Yes 🙌

[@Kamurirubey13]

He's such a beautiful farmer. Team Jim

[@sugarbomb26]

I really cannot get enough of your Jim videos. They are the best, most inspirational gardening videos on par with Charles Dowding.

[@tesha199]

Jim is always giving 100% truthful advice, no BS

[@aa37988]

always, Always, ALWAYS look forward to your vids with Jim. Thanks!

[@golfingtx]

Got a dose of Kovaleski wisdom to reenergize me for spring. A form of winterizing so to speak. Thank you.

[@jenn6838]

Jim videos are the best!! I learn a lot Thank you Pete!

[@777overjoy777]

Jim, Pete, I tried to grow sweet potatoes but the gophers got them. Any suggestions on how to get rid of gophers?

[@sj_88088]

I’m a new gardener and I find Jim’s knowledge incredibly valuable. I’m inspired

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

He is a wealth of knowledge and an inspiration!

[@toneyjohnson8910]

Always enjoy you and Jim together thanks for sharing.

[@joansmith3492]

Jim is the real deal. Love seeing what he is up to!

[@joepeace5297]

I drive by the house at least once a week and go fishing down on the river there I'm always interested in what he's got growing on. Very nice fellow gave me some good advice on sweet potatoes thank you

[@arlene7057]

I LOVE Jim’s videos!!! … He’s the One Jim Revolution! … Fukuoka & Kovaleski ROCK!

[@ArcsandSparks315]

I like both Jim and your jobs👍🏻

[@rgb5031]

You're so right Pete, people do need to be; taught, trained, and encouraged to try, try, & try again, at any age. Grocery store produce is just not good enough, we've got to have alternatives, and for that to happen, skills must be passed on. Thank you so much for all your wonderful videos!

[@cpnotill9264]

We can learn something every day and so exciting. Thanks Pete for sharing and thanks Jim for inspiring us all! 👍🌱❤

[@robertling9872]

Thank you Jim and Pete for another beautiful video. 🍀🌱

I love the Jim videos; it’s very kind of him to share his wisdom with the world. Thank you for sharing his information in your videos and broadening the reach of his voice. As the saying goes “haters gonna hate” so keep ignoring the naysayers complaining about awesome content. This is a great video; keep them coming, please…

What a beautiful garden! Gardeners like Jim who can make the ground so productive have a gift from God.

[@thomaspostma9897]

Im in the npr area and Drove my kids past a bunch of times over the past few months to see the progression from sweet potato’s to everything else being planted. My son is always amazed every time we go by!

Thanks for showing me what's growing on at Jim's place! He is an amazing farmer!

[@later_daze_4080]

nut sedge is a evil weed. Jim is living the dream! Super envious of his setup and lifestyle!

[@ajb.822]

It's a part of creations built-in good things, tho. These tough, vigorous weeds. They're there to keep the soil covered, to repair and heal when it's been damaged in some way, or in tough/extreme conditions. It's difficult, when that's where your home is, for sure ! But just sayin', I've learned to view these weeds with appreciation for they're designed use, even when they're in my way and when I don't understand why they're still such an issue, when I seem to be successfully reducing they're reasons to be there ( things I've learned from Geoff Lawton and others, about why they're there and taking over and what to do about it etc. and what to watch out for/know - I really recommend Geoff's videos on weeds ).

[@cpnotill9264]

[@wilecatrexy]

Thanks Pete and Jim for all your videos.

[@jeff6899]

As mentioned once before, Jim touts natural soil fertility, formed by micro-organisms that you constantly feed with cover crops, etc....which then becomes your fertilizer. As Gabe Brown touts in his classic "Dirt to Soil," etc. Jim is so correct...

[@jellojoe00]

I'm only here for Jim's house! 😁

Love all the jim k videos, gives me the boost I need to start my garden up here at 53 degrees north

[@jesseferguson6208]

Pete, Thank you so much for all the hard work and content. Mr. K, I have been emulating your methods for years. From soil blocks to harvest. I am eternally grateful for being so generous with your knowledge. God bless. Much respect and adoration. Peace

My desires and ambition have change because of the content you all and others have been putting out. Looking forward to the day I have some land to be a good steward to!

[@tkaart2242]

Thank you for all your videos and highlighting Jim. He is a plethora of knowledge. Jim amazes me all what he does for his age. Inspiring! I have a large vegetable garden and grow food for my family - alot of it to eat, but I work 3 days a week as a teacher. After this Covid stuff, I might just enjoy growing full time and selling. I would probably make more money!

That’s awesome! You can do it 🙌

[@shangri-lahomestead2895]

Actually, I follow you because of the Jim videos. I live in Washington state & grow in a suburban homestead. Florida landscaping doesn't apply to me much but urban farming and the climate in Maine does. Variety is great!
