[@nkbrown8382]

You know you’re going to want a set of stairs on the side to check on the roof❤

[@margaretbedwell3211]

Most definitely. LOL.

[@madelinewhick7467]

Oh my goodness! What a brilliant idea!

[@maureenpool2127]

That’s what I was thinking!

[@debrasloan6929]

Oh gosh yes please much safer than the ladder!

[@nbc911]

Oh yes amazing idea! With a lovely English deckchair

[@jillychandler]

Thank goodness you have the lovely Ant to help you Kate, what a gentleman in the true sense of the word he is. He cares about you, about nature, what a treasure to have as a neighbor, and you seem so fond of each other, which is great. His wife is very lucky to have a lovely husband like him. xxx

[@thereseboogades8498]

Absolutely!!! ❤

[@debrasloan6929]

Kate ! Your kids are going to freak out when they see you climbing the ladder onto the scaffolding ! Careful please 🙏 what a beautiful concept.. a green roof wow! And such a gentleman Ant to help you. Take care Kate. Get well soon. Thank you for another great video ❤

[@seherozan7434]

Enjoy your new shelter lovely Kate.🥰💙🧿💙🧿💙🧿💙🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@chrisberry9017]

Hello Kate! This is such a super project! I first came across green roofs when I visited Norway over thirty years ago, and fell in love with the whole concept. Ant is such a great neighbour, and it’s a real joy to watch you both working together. Thank you so much for sharing what you do with us.

[@maureenveltenaar2728]

Greatings from an antillian lady who enjoys your videos! Love your garden, love your green roof, love your handey man! This is a beautifull world!!

[@thatgirlinokc3975]

Ant working while Eileen honks and hisses is too cute. She’s the goose in charge😂 Great job as always the drone shots are beautiful.

[@Luci165]

I have just *found* you and couldn't wait to see your green roof. Thank you so much for sharing your life. Take care.

[@martiparsons3141]

Thank you Kate and Ant. You need stairs now so that you can keep an eye on the roof!

[@addelinebell6158]

Yes I think stairs would be great. I wonder how Kate got off the scf….?❤

[@lauralake7430]

Yes! Silver birch grow fast!

[@kath9939]

What a pair the two of you are! It warms my heart to see how much Ant cares about your safety and satisfaction!

[@brendastajkowski502]

Eileen is doing an excellent job supervising the work.

[@marijkeschellenbach2680]

Oooooh, this is so exciting! Ant is such a treasure and I am glad you introduced us to his KZbin site...I love watching him.

[@penkast1605]

What a great project this shed is! You will be warm when it is cold outside , and cool when it is hot! Insulation is great, and the green roof will be amazing! Ant is a wonderful man, and I am glad we got to know him too 😊

[@athenahay1885]

You're absolutely right, Kate. Everything comes back to quilting. It's all about construction

[@venitabucceri8435]

What a lovely surprise... A Last Homely Garden video in the middle of the week💝 Well done Ant!!!

[@pattyturner7634]

Oh how I wish I had someone as wonderful as Ant nearby by help with all the projects I think up. He’s such a treasure! And I just love the way you two work together. The cabin roof is perfect! These project videos are so fantastic! I watched it just as I finished planting several pots to put around our yard to bring bright spots to darker areas. You are such an inspiration. Thank you for another fabulous, inspiring video!

[@sherrybonner4168]

You do. You just haven't met them yet!

[@mojow9841]

You’re quite right everyone needs an Ant to help out. I haven’t found mine yet either.

[@MyDaisy66]

Ant should have his own tv program. I said on insta he should write a book for his photography….a man of many talents. You are so lucky to have him as your neighbour Kate. He’s done an amazing job.

[@judithburke1539]

Your dreams are slowly but surely coming true! Well done Kate and Ant!

[@molamola7093]

It has been such a delight to watch the evolution of the pond and cabin. It’s so gorgeous and it’s fun to see how happy Eileen is!

[@angiewarren6045]

I love when you post updates on the cabin! It has really come a long way,in a short amount of time! Thank you Ant for all you do!

[@artifex_amandalastname2297]

Thank you, Kate. These videos are always such a sweet escape from a difficult day. I love the slow unfolding of your garden, pond, and cabin.

[@lilybee_]

It just came over me what a lovely mark Ant is leaving on the land he loves. I think you're right Kate. You both are happy because you do what you enjoy.

[@susanbanack4855]

Your cabin has turned in to such a serene little spot and what is better than that is now it is topped with flowers and potentially more flowers!

[@lidaconn2029]

It would be great if I had and Ant around to help me. You are very lucky to have such a good friend who is willing to help you.

[@deliad8826]

The view from above is spectacular. Thank you Kate and Ant. What a beautiful project.

[@inezwalsh2584]

Nice to see you both laugh,made my day…

[@lizadams7662]

Ants advice about planting and caution about trees self planting, is great. A bulb garden, too, great idea to look forward to. Wildflowers! He's really an expert. Also Eileen, nagging and checking.

[@janespond922]

Congratulations to you both on completing the cabin project! It's fantastic that you had the imagination and skills to make such a jewel of a place from a boggy piece of land. I can imagine next time it rains , you could sit in there with some tea, honey and scones. Snuggle into a quillt and watch the rain drops on the pond! Enjoy!❤

[@darlenencambria]

We would all love to have a friend like Ant. It’s is a pleasure to watch both your channels 🌻🧡

[@mojow9841]

What a wonderful idea having crocuses and grape hyacinths on your roof. Your cabin looks like a comfortable space to be. Enjoy it. Thank you for allowing us to share the building of your cabin.

[@Vivien-j1f]

I need Ant! I have so many jobs in the house that want finishing (or starting!) Shame he is so far away. What a fantastic craftsman.

[@Liz.Green789]

This whole project has been a joy to watch. This roof is going to be beautiful.

[@6gorks]

I have a small suggestion: Add a couple of small floating solar disc fountains to your pond. They are inexpensive, maybe 10 pounds, and it's amazing how quickly you will get a smile on your face.

[@labnurse1]

The green roof will make the cabin blend in to the surroundings and won't be able to tell from the view above. Splendid! Thanks Kate. Hope you are over your cold soon

[@LifeInBama]

I chuckled when you said there was no purpose in patting it. I thought well you are patting it so well! Lol. You should definitely be proud. That is wonderful and I hope you enjoy.

[@knackfulknitter]

So wonderful to see you and Ant working on your living roof. This is the most enjoyable channel. 💕

[@uterick-seleck2541]

How cute to see you both acting together, the cabin turns out gorgeous and the roof will be great.

[@Cdees57]

Hope your over your cold soon Kate. So nice to see a friend like Ant helping you see your vision come true. Planting succulents that grow long and hang off the edge of the roof.. that would look beautiful. ❤❤❤

[@bellascraftystudio]

Hi Both, you are so blessed Kate to have such lovely man as your friend and helper, he did a wonderful job it’s going to be amazing. Thank you for taking us along the over head shots were stunning. Love Bella xx

[@juliemix3373]

Kate, you and Ant did a great job. Very lovely to watch. Cheers

[@darcicole5530]

I remember when we first saw Ant and he shied away from the camera. Now he embraces it and has become a natural. I'm looking forward to seeing this roof as it develops. Intriguing!

[@Shogozenart]

Kate…. Next project…. You need stairs …. So you can keep an eye on your garden! ❤

[@jamiethrogmorton2540]

And today I learned on a random video how to make a quilted green roof, must be TLHG!!! 😂😂😂. Next you’ll need a deck chair up on the roof garden, nice for a spot of iced tea and a view! ❤

[@merylchesebrough2271]

OMG, you weren’t kidding everything is so green! Amazing. It will be interesting to see how the roof grows. Ant did a good job with your supervision of course

[@annetteperks]

Beautiful to see you Kate and Ant working so well together.

[@philippaking1732]

What a treat to watch the green roof be installed. I love Eileen giving stern instructions to Ant at the beginning. I really appreciate the relationship between you and Ant, Kate. You are both treasures. Thank you so much. 💚💛❤

[@annrubino6252]

What a lovely collaboration with Ant. He is not only a builder of all things, but a true landscape artisan.

[@maryellenhardy]

Ah, the Mighty Ant and his MAD SKILLS!

[@carybradley3968]

“Everything, everything comes back to quilting, doesn’t it?” Love it, and YES, it does! Hahaha! Adore this green roof, and like others, freely admit I was expecting a different “green.” This is brilliant, fair Kate. Many thanks for sharing the hobbits dream with us. Adore you, and Ant!

[@mardacraig7095]

You are so Blessed to have this beautiful peaceful property in one of most favorite places in the World❤ God Bless you, your family and friends.

Kate-the roof is so cool. I was explaining everything to my husband and showing him the pictures. I don’t know why but it made me so happy that I cried. Martina-Avon Park, Florida.

[@margaretmlydon6910]

Kate , the green roof turned out perfectly. Well done to yourself and Ant. 👏

[@nbc911]

Its seems that an Owl Nest Box is now on Ant's list of things to do. How wonderful to have a resident owl 🦉

[@Tea-nOpals]

The dynamic duo! The things you two get up to when left to your own devices 😂 . I absolutely love your living roof. Ant doing the install, and while Kate was in charge of patting. ❤

[@tammyschniers569]

Wow Kate! I always learn so much from your channel... I have never seen or heard of growing a roof like this. Amazing!! When I heard you saying you were going to put a green roof on, my mind automatically was envisioning a tin wavy dark green roof...hahaha was I ever surprised!! I absolutely love it, great job Ant!!

[@lesleyhutchason6277]

Wow, it'll look amazing!!

[@susangaetz9264]

So much fun!! You look like a couple of little gophers sticking your heads out of the ground, up there! Will be so interesting watching your roof progress..... good for you guys completing such a project. Love your stuff! 😊

[@janikabertone5566]

That roof is going to look great when it all grows in. You are very lucky to have a wonderful neighbor who is so handy at just about everything. Once again I learned something new on your channel. Have a wonderful week

[@greyfeather7857]

What a beautiful way to finish the cabin. Very much looking forward to seeing it next spring. I imagine the owl watching with interest while you’re working 🪶🦉🌱

[@julestopper7553]

Well done Ant and Kate! The green roof is beautiful!

[@maryrichardson8790]

Ha ha, that beginning was priceless, oh, so funny! Thank you Kate for your sense of humour. 😊😊❤❤❤

[@margaretbedwell3211]

Kate and Ant, thank you so much for sharing this process. I love the idea of a green roof. Ant has really made this area of your property almost a secret garden. It is beautiful. I am sure Eileen thinks she has the finest pond in the land. Y'all have a Blessed week and Kate, I hope your cold is over quickly.

[@melindafisher1584]

What a beautiful overhead view of your beautiful oasis. So fun to watch the process of watching you and Ant installing the green roof.

Love a green roof. Good to see the reality of installation and maintenance

Thank you so much for sharing the green roof installation. You and Ant and just a delight to watch and so inspiring. I look forward to seeing what grows in it through the summer and fall and spring.

[@mjclark7119]

You and Ant are so funny together! 😂😂😂. What a fab project - it’s going to be amazing. Looking forward to seeing the progress and thanks for the video - loved it as always. Sounds like your having the same weather as our Winter - freezing nights and 12 degree days! Do hope it warms up for you. Hugs to you both Meredithe 🤗🤗🇦🇺

[@kimemerson4316]

Oh Kate ….. your pond and cabin are looking so beautiful. A tranquil haven for you, Eileen and the wildlife that quietly cohabits with you. Enjoy ….

So very happy for you. This has been a great project which will continue to bring joy. Ant is such a lovely guy too.

[@keenDesign64]

Aahh...just wonderful guys xxx Friends of ours had a seed bomb party to celebrate their green roof installation.... maybe when the warmer weather hits you can all sit on the deck and make seed bombs whilst drinking home-made lemonade then chuck your seed bombs up.... such fun... Greetings from Amsterdam xxxx

[@venetiaerickson9289]

At first, I imagined a painted green metal roof when Kate said a 'green roof'. What a nice surprise to see the living roof! Some creeping Jenny with their pretty yellow flowers and snow in summer would be pretty as they cascade over the edge of the roof. And Ant is an amazing helper!

[@carolnash5617]

I did also... i thought " why is she so excited about a green roof"!

[@karenkaren9526]

Hooray the garden. The funny part is in I don’t garden,but I love watching you guys.

[@carolnash5617]

I can just hear what Eileen is saying to Ant..... "you made this wonderful pond for ME, and now you are doing something that might interfere with it" !

What a beautiful sight it will look with wild flowers growing amongst the grasses. Thanks Kate and Ant for another garden video .Get well Kate 😊
