Best of luck with your garden seed shop Sarah! I I figure many gardeners who enjoyed my Little Shop of Seeds will love your seed quality and prices. 75 cents is the best price I've seen for seeds. Best of success to you! www.sarahsseedshop.com

Certainly miss you my friend, i don't know how many times I've rewatched your videos to let the stress float away and for a bit more selfishly just to spend time with another garden gnome. I hope all is well with you guys and hopefully the long drought will come to and end. You're still loved by many of us here.

Hey Ray, We miss you buddy. I come here once in a blue moon to reminisce on the good times here and in the voodoo Garden. You'd be happy to know you inspired by indoor Garden. I've been keeping it going since 2009!. Some of the plants are 15 years old. Hope you, rascal and the critters are well.

Ray, I would love that so much. I was surprised you also closed your seed store. I miss that as well. I hope all is well with you, Mike and all the animals.

[@lindaslinger4413]

I miss you Ray.. You’ve played such a big role in me growing up, watching you thrive and bloom in your garden. Even being a teenager, spending a day with you, Mike and the animals in the garden sounded like the most perfect day and now being 34, I still feel that way. I know it’s been a while now since you retired and I hope you are happy. When things go bad in life, right now I’m at a very low point in life after a devastating relationship and the breakup, I still find myself seeking calmness and safety in coming back to your videos. I don’t know if you realize just how much you have given us. It has always been so much more than just gardening videos. Thank you so much for everything Ray ❤

Did you know I started watching you my sophomore year of HS? I just graduated college after 4 years the other day. My first time cooking enchiladas was because of you. The video you posted using your family's recipe. I cooked it over and over again. Couldn't get the sauce quite right when I was younger, I would always burn it. I revisited that video today, and saw this video. My English has gotten soo much better now that I can actually understand everything you're saying now. You were part of my teenage years, watching you after school after a stressful day. Thank you for sharing yourself to us and letting us in. You have no clue how much you helped me, especially during my lonely years. Also, I never make Enchiladas unless their your recipe! Good luck!!!

[@huntermacalady2084]

I found your channel when i was 12 or 13 years old…. Now im 23 getting my degree in ornamentals and turf grass with a fiancé and a kid on the way! I learned so much from you and got a job at a nursery for 5 years where i took what you preached, a way of being rational and calm in the approach you have, recommending and teaching them what you taught me. Youve helped me through the roughest times of my life and i cant thank you enough for reminding me that today really is a good day. Thank you ray

Hi Ray, I hope you are still checking comments. This year I planted Praxxis cherry tomato and Ray’s Mule Team tomato seeds, and they grew! I have several of the cherry tomatoes growing, and they are amazing. Dark green, super healthy and nothing eats them. No disease, and absolutely full of little green tomatoes. Every time I water them or pass by I thank you for the seeds, and the years of your videos that led me to start gardening. Everything is in pots or tubs becaus I have limited space and can’t get on the ground, but it works! Thank you thank you thank you. I hope you are well, and still hope for another video one day.

Gotta say even after two years, I still miss seeing you and the animals and the gardening results. I especially remember the turkeys that followed you like amorous puppies. Do you still keep birds of all types. Perhaps one day you'll pop up a few dozen pictures of your place and your animals and gardens, etc. I know you didn't have close neighbors in your neighborhood, but we were your neighbors, Mr. Ray.

My youngest is now 20 and what made me think of you is when I was standing in the back yard looking at the huge garden she has grown and all the landscaping she has done around the house. Know you have left a mark on many lives and you are loved.

[@tjbowman68]

Ray, Thanks for leaving the channel up. I found you just today as I was watching videos about Thanksgiving cacti and I watched in horror as you ‘pruned’ her down. So then I looked for a follow-up to see how she did. I found her in the background of a video about a year later. Then I find this video that you have retired from making videos. Just my luck. Haha I’d love to see updated photos of the cactus should you decide to post them. All the best…

I believe I started watching you when I was around 12 or 13, about 9-10 years ago. I remember my favorite videos were the mango from seed and cocoa pod videos. I even sent you rice that you grew for a short time several years ago. As a kid it was amazing to see you growing something from my families farm. I suppose I'm kinda rambling now but the point I'm trying to make is that for the better part of a decade I've been watching your videos. In that decade everything has changed so much, family and friends have died. New ones were born. I've been through breakups and nee relationships. Moved more times than I care to remember. Went through some bad times and some good times. But through all of that I could always count on you. Whenever I was going through a rough time your videos could help relax me. If times were good your videos just made them better. I'm sad to see you go but I'm happy if you're happy. I'll still be here watching your videos though. I'll always be here just like your videos were there for me. Thanks Ray

[@hebrewmama]

[@bluebird9193]

Finally a KZbinr who cares enough to tell his audience he’s leaving. Ray knows what its like when videos suddenly stop with no explanation! Many channels I subscribed to have done that. Subscribers start commenting hey is everything ok,etc and they get no response. I’ve seen a few come back months later sometimes a year later and don’t even explain what happened. Then they disappear into the corn again. Not a good way to treat ppl IMO. I don’t want Ray to retire but at least he is considerate enough to let us know. The door is always open if he chooses to return!

[@benmatthews3732]

I am very sad, even though you tried to make this as easy as possible. No one has more gracefully said goodbye. After watching your videos for the last ten years it feels like we are family and I am losing a good friend. I will miss knowing what is happening in your life. Did you get more chickens? What does the new building look like? Is Rascal ok? I will miss you and your gardening and pets and your good and honest soul. Take care of yourself my dear. P.S.

Hi Ray. I just watched your last video. I have to admit it made me both happy and sad. It’s been a year since I’ve watched you so I didn’t know you had stopped filming. My husband passed away a year ago and I stopped watching but as things are settling in I came looking for you to see what was going on in Iowa! Lol I basically just want to tell you thanks. In the two years leading up to his passing I quit working to stay home and care for my husband. I also suffer from depression which I could not treat as I no longer had insurance so I went through some pretty dark days during these last few years and your videos and just listening to you talk helped me through the dark times. So thank you for being you. How I happened upon your little oasis in Iowa I don’t even remember but I’m sure glad I did. Today IS good day!
