Boys and their toys 😜 xx

[@marieparks5674]

I’m 78 and no longer have a garden, but plant a couple pots of tomatoes. This video sure made me want to get my hands in the dirt again.all animals, in my opinion, love to be talked to and babied. Living their best lives.

[@prayerwarrior424]

My husband is almost 79 ; still working while I am gardening and got chickens and soon rabbits… keeps you young!!!

[@pamp5797]

I hear you. It's the draw of the dirt. I can smell it now. I'm going to try to get a little planting done while I wait to get my first knee replacement.

[@fadedglory1045]

You know you are a hard core homesteader when... you clean chicken poop by hand 🤣🤣🤣 Love you guys! I love how real you are. 🌺 I'm determined to grow SOMETHING this year! Thank you

[@maryellenwarrick8288]

love it all!

[@JuanitaStahl-r6v]

Such a good girl

[@cletenorris3558]

You two are an inspiration of right living, right parenting, right relationships, and cultivating and honoring what GOD has provided. Enjoy your channel immensely! Blessings

MEGAN TALKS TO ANIMALS THE SAME WAY I TALK TO ANIMALS I LOVE IT SO DO THEY. THEIR JUST AS LOVING. AS. PEOPLE. SOMETIMES MORE I THINK SO BELIEVE MEGAN UNDERSTANDS. COOL MAKE OUR OWN BUTTER THX

[@ayakashioni1336]

Your children are learning a lot of things while they are young

[@deborahrutherford5244]

I purchase plants from the local High school FFA greenhouse. It is helping the school and they are teaching the kids how to grow food.

[@billroberts3864]

Meghan, it is nice to see how you relate to your animals and they respond nicely when you give them treats. Maggie sure enjoys making butter because you encourage her to help you. Maggie will not forget the times she has helped you do kitchen chores. Andy, a guy needs tractors in his life to help him do farm chores. Blessings to all of you.

[@shirley7137]

So enjoy your videos. At 70 it is like a refresher course in the country ways. TY

[@thomasthibedeau]

I mulch my trees with the branches I cut off.

[@gloriadavis6202]

My husband used to put grass clippings and leaves I On our flower beds. It made the best mulch for our beautiful flowers and roses

[@badatti2d]

I like to see the young man following dad around, learning the things he will be able to put to good use when he gets older; and, watching your daughter helping mom in the kitchen with the butter-making and other things just gives me a good reason to smile. You folks are what America is all about, and I love watching your videos to remind me that life isn't necessarily all about spending money...rather, it's about spending time. It brings back great memories of when I was younger and would spend time with my grandparents, watching (mostly) them do these same things.

[@georgejobin1744]

The right way to grow up

[@brucemccann830]

So glad to see that you guys treat yourselves to a dinner out here and there... you all deserve it so very much!

[@TrexBex-t3b]

Very good video

[@lisacornett9364]

Maggie is the best helper in the world. She is adorable.

[@deenichols491]

So glad i ran across your video. Reminds me of home.

[@phyllispitts6656]

Howdy neighbor’s!

[@imaprepper1866]

Andy , there is only one person that works as hard as you do to plant a garden is Danny from pecan grove or Deep South Homestead. Both of you amazes me in your gardening. You may want to check him out. I’ve learned so much from both of you.

[@paccur1252]

Looks like a wonderful green house..healthy plants.. Yes, always need more strawberries..lol

[@jerrystout3032]

You all are having a great time!!!😇

[@tinainglima]

You guys are really really blessed to be able to live on all those acres and eat healthy homegrown food. No crazy neighbors lol cool country farm view. God really set you two’s up because you like the same things so well❤

[@vahlla78]

Maggie was so adorable helping you make butter. Thank Andy for the greenhouse tour. I’m so pumped for gardening season!

[@marshallfrazier915]

My Grandmother would only have a jersey cow cause she said that they made the best butter, and she made butter from the time I was a little boy till she got so old that she couldn’t get to the barn.She also sold eggs, and I remember she would put it in a plastic 1lb bowl and sell it for a dollar. I grew up eating eggs and butter and drinking buttermilk.

[@nancyburton566]

Great family. Love watching the your videos. Little kiddos are so cute. Newfoundland, Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️

[@theresalee9534]

Hello to you all. I enjoy watching all your videos. Megan I love canning , cooking and making butter. I don’t have a cow but buy heavy cream to make butter. Hopefully one day I can get a milk cow to spoil like you have. Hahahaah

[@lauraklein6405]

Thank you for filming your day!

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

thank you for watching

[@bettyferguson2815]

So many children on other sites are not my favorites, but your kids are pleasant. They are helpful rather than getting in the way. I'm sure it's the PARENTS who make the difference.

[@duncand5148]

Hey Andy. Awesome video awesome content . Information much needed very well spoken. This will help a lot of viewers and especially viewers new to gardening. 👍🏽 Listen, I about fell out watching you clean out those nesting boxes. 😂 Man you sure keep it real. That right there is why I love you guys.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

Hahaha thank you

[@kathymonica7516]

Your daughter is very cute!

[@CatheyJenkins]

Hi 👋 l received your book 📕 today thank you 🙏 a beautiful book with great recipes will be trying some out soon 😊xx

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

Thank you

[@jennykiser2627]

I have a nephew that is just like Andy. He and his little boys love tractors. Can’t have just one.

[@claraanderson1305]

Our local greenhouses are more expensive in our neck of the woods but the plants are alot better, you all are blessed!

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

wow really? I dont know how it could get more expensive than lowes plants are

[@a.p.5429]

Looks like the hens are roosting on those boxes instead of just laying eggs. Not sure how to stop it though. My grandpa never wore gloves either.😂 Really enjoy the channel.

[@nellmanning8547]

So very interesting and learning experiences.......i love these videos !

[@ruthiecooper2446]

I'm watching you from Kentucky, ❤ we have a lot of Amish greenhouses in our county, they have really nice plant's and flowers, and a great price as well, buy local farmers and greenhouses. Always ❤ i love watching you all❤

[@AnnieHinson-x7n]

Reminds me of growing up on a very small farm in Whitton Ar. We had chicken,pigs and a big garden. I love watching y'all. There's times wish I was there to help u out. 😅😊

[@ElizabethTravis-n6o]

Just started watching your videos and my husband and I love them. We both wish we were younger. We live in the city of Evansville I N.

[@georgejobin1744]

Having one tractor is like eating one potato chip can't eat just one besides when one breaks jump on another one the show must go on.nice planter by the way bet lovie could pull that

[@909garrap]

Making that butter looks easy and I bet it’s delicious

[@adventuresinmichiganwlisa9852]

Howdy y'all from here in Michigan 👍🤓👍

[@marilynrobertson6265]

Love you guys ❤😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@fordilac]

Collectively we are smarter than any one individual. Great comment on the butter making.

[@kathiebumpers1767]

You have a special helper!!!

[@robbielynnhowle]

That’s some yummy looking butter 😊.

[@robynchote3208]

Excellent videos. I enjoy tuning in everyday with your smart beautiful family. I’ve learned a ton and I’m country breed 🙋‍♀️tx

[@shellakers10]

We drive an hour each way to get to the family run greenhouse that 2e love! It's worth it! The price is SO much better than Lowes or wally prison. You're right about the plants being tougher too... at least that's our experience. ❤

[@david-q5q4z]

great video

[@mollyt9714]

Porknbeanies love that talk too Megan!!! Porknbeanies also love Carmel apples and bobbing for apples in their water tank😂😅

[@stacypotts6341]

Back in the 70s, we would sell an enormous amount of eggs from chickens, ducks and turkeys to everybody. I had a radio flyer wagon that we'd load up with eggs several times a week and always come back home without any left. A man stopped me one day and asked where I got all them eggs, so I says, from chickens. The man laughed and asked if it was our chickens, so I says yes we didn't steal them. So he laughs again and says would we be willing to sell some manure, so I says, you've gotta ask daddy, but I'm sure he would. We didn't know what price to put on it, so whilst daddy was trying to think of a price, the man says he'd give a dollar for every gallon, so daddy says sold. Word got around quick, and we were selling manure as quick as the chickens could produce it. But just like with anything else, you've always got some knuckleheads out there, and folks were complaining that the manure burnt their plants. Weren't our fault.

[@snarky_farmer]

Strawberries make excellent groundcover so you can never have too many. 😂

[@PoorMansHomesteadCanadaBC1961]

I use maple leaves every year for my mulch cover my potato beds I leave my potatoes in the ground all year only dig what I want out of them and then come spring I turn it over with the Maple leaves in it take out what potatoes are left and leave the little potatoes in the ground to seed for the following year I hardly ever buy seed potatoes because there's so many small little baby potatoes in there that grow the following year works out pretty good i've only lost one potato last year that went wrought in the ground over the winter mind you the lowest temperatures we get it'll maybe minus 10 And my potato gardens are quite grovely so the potatoes don't rot

[@davidburchfield2720]

Good morning hope you'll have a great day nice video of country life and their's nothing better god bless

[@johnwillenburg1586]

Hello john from NC USA Scotland county.

[@LesaMejia]

Love watching yall. Blessed to have a chance and your choice of life. I'm from north Mississippi

[@johnwenstad8774]

I enjoyed your video. Making homemade butter brings back lots of memories. Haven't done it for fifty years I enjoy watching you guys. You're such a good family.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

thank you

[@jdman-ohio]

I agree with Andy I am ready to get out there and get started on the garden. As always great video and God bless your family.

[@AppalachianFarmstead]

Good morning! We get our starts from local greenhouses too. They are all owned by the Amish. Always have good luck with them. We have a Earthway also. Completely useless here where we grow rocks by the ton🤨. Thanks for sharing, have a great day

[@johndenoma6397]

I have an older Hoss seeder. It has worked great for the last 5 years. Ge a number of blank disks so you can control various seed sizes.

[@misstlc7136]

Thats a cutie pie helper u got there❤❤❤

[@teresahix5658]

Good visit. When I was little we had a milk cow and we loved churning butter. ❤❤

[@brendawoods554]

Love y'all's videos, we always buy local if possible, you are right, the plants are much better.

[@kerriskitchen4747]

As a grandma, it is my job to teach my 6 year old grandson how to drive the tractor, lol Course his daddy just got one too. But I still let him drive mine. And yes he has every toy tractor (some he has multiples of) from Rural King and Tractor Supply.! Tells me all the time he's gonna be a farmer like grandma

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

That is awesome!, sound like Jacob

[@Christian-jx3nx]

I couldn’t grow green bell pepper 🫑 until I bought a Big Bertha plant at Home Depot. One plant produced a year’s worth for just me. Try it you’ll like it! 😊

[@JuanitaStahl-r6v]

Wow so cute cool you got

[@cathyswain3496]

I have two favorites on KZbin, you guys and Countryview Acres .

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

thank you

[@DebraMorris-q6r]

Good morning ☀️ I have saved some pretty close to dead plants starts, they were screaming at me “please save me “And managed to to pull thru😊

[@alanwilliamson2259]

Always enjoy your vids, and today was a bit more learning as i had to look up maps for Ararat. Your area is beautiful and wish you all the very best on the farm.

[@Rich386a]

Another option is find a farmers market, and ask the vendors there if they sell plants. thats (from the lady that runs the market) where i get probably 80% of my garden plants. Green house locations is great.. i fill in what i need (other 20%) from a local green house.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

Great idea!

[@charmainevandiford6622]

Can’t have too many tractors and I don’t have a single one but sure want one bad.

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Good morning to you all. Looking good around there. Thanks for the road trip to the local greenhouse, that's a big operation and well maintained too. Maggie is the butter maker for sure she's quite the little helper. Thanks for the calming effect you have around here. We do enjoy your channel. Fred.

[@gardeningwithhoss]

Great job Maggie.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

shes the butter queen!

[@kathiebumpers1767]

That butter looks great! You hav

[@keithdevillier1459]

I love y'all's vide😢os takes me back to my childhood days at my grandmother's land my aunt's and great aunts miss all the great memories of the huge tuck patch garden that consisted of 4 acres drawing water from the well milking grandmas jersey named butterfly and churning the cream making butter again I love y'all's videos may God Bless you all and I have added y'all to my prayer list book.

[@karlam7050]

I'm going to try n make some butter. Did that when was little with my great grandmother. But we shook it in a qt jar......

[@MelissaMounts]

I love all your videos! There’s nothing wrong with splurging sometimes after all the work you all do. Your kids are so adorable!

[@ScottsLifeOffGrid]

Your videos keep getting better and better, loved the trip to the greenhouse. Btw, I'd be happy with one tractor w loader. So expensive these days.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

you're defiantly right about that! fortunately I've bought all mine used at really good prices except for the kubota with the loader we bought it new but before all the price hikes in 2020

[@creativespaceslandscaping]

in the background of your video, there are a few trees in bloom that are absolutely gorgeous! One has white flowers and the other is pink...what are those beauties? I'm guessing they only bloom in Spring? We have flowering tropical trees here in South Florida but gosh nothing compared to those 🤩 I already have some tomatoes in the ground & my collards & watermelon seeds have popped up, its always so exciting this time of year! thank you for sharing a day in your life 💚 - Sheri

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

yes they only bloom in spring, the pink ones are peach trees and the white ones are pears there are pretty for sure

[@creativespaceslandscaping]

Oh wow that is certainly a surprise to hear peach and pear for me lol 😆thanks, hopefully you have a blessed bounty!@@TrueGritAppalachianWays

[@freesianlover]

I’m glad to hear that you like the late Dutch cabbage. I started to seeds for that kind of cabbage and I’ve never grown it before. We are a good 6-8 weeks from last frost here in iowa😢

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

our last frost date is april 15 i think but most likely we wont have any more hard freezes, hopefully anyway

[@freesianlover]

@@TrueGritAppalachianWays we are 23 degrees tonight and they are talking more than inch of snow next while the schools are on spring break 😢😂 I can’t make this weather up😂

[@jeff1968y]

Hello ya'll i went over to Hoss's web site after watching your video's and was looking around for something different to grow this year and found guess what? Tobacco and like usually i picked the hardest one Carolina flu cured.That being said i growed up in tobacco country Ashe county but was only a summertime job Pulling plants,planting,and spuding = cutting,I now know i missed out on a whole lot of the process, Was thinking maybe with your ability to get knowledge from the old timer's in your area you could take us tru the whole process not talking ackers maybe 1 pack of seeds.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

I'd Love to plant a crop of tobacco again, I've thought about planting a couple rows just for the nostalgia but I dont have anywhere to cure it anymore, we grew flew cured here and all of our tobacco barns are out of commission now

[@lindabyrne1645]

Enjoyed watching!

Making butter is relaxing to me we use a #4 dazey church it takes a while but boy is it well worth it to have homemade butter. The videos are inspiring to me , keep up the good work.
