Garden Tour | June 2022

[@kimberlylutz2775]

Oh my gosh, Kian is hysterical! 😂😂😂😂

[@homefries5557]

I love that the kids have their own gardens!

[@hannahthehomesteader]

Meanwhile in Montana, it was an incredibly cold and wet spring...until it wasn't. Went from 45 degrees to 85 in 4 days and sent my plants that hadn't drowned into utter shock. I'm currently eating a bolted spinach and broccoli salad (again). This has been a weird year. Let's all march forward and make the best of it!

[@steppininit8559]

Exact same thing happened here in southern Missouri went from cold in May to 90s beginning of June... Now our pastures and gardens are burned up, but we finally got much needed rain

[@jacquelineparkes9400]

I have to say that I am so impressed by your family and your children. At times I am nearly brought to tears with the joy I get from seeing how you are raising them. How involved they are. You are amazing parents and such incredibly hard workers. I love watching your channel and especially seeing the videos where you show what you are harvesting and cooking in a day. I have a very small homestead (only 1.5 acres) and compared to you I am an utter failure in the worker department. You are an inspiration. Keep it up!!! And Thank you for sharing your life and family with us.

[@TheSeasonalHomestead]

Thank you for your kind words! You got this! Of course, much of the fighting and complaining doesn't ever make the "final cut" in video production :)

[@naturenerdwi6381]

I love the kids showing off their gardens😁

[@ChristiCC23]

Kian has a huge personality! 😄😄😄 Loved it! All the kids are adorable.

[@singingstars5006]

I'm an American living in Germany with my German husband. When we started watching your videos, I said, "They seem like a sweet homeschooling Christian family." The sweet kids and the spirit both you and your husband give off say it. Then later I heard you mention homeschooling and then another video of praying at the table (which might be Christian or Mormon or similar, no idea). I was homeschooled half of my childhood so I recognize and honor that. God bless you all! ❤

[@grekmakadi6854]

Hello my name is Maria and i am from Greece Congratulations for your garden, all of you are wonderful, thank you for your ideas. I wish you Good power.

[@jenniferrosario1489]

Next season use the line that flooded to grow your celery. It likes damp soil. I live in a tropical climate and in order to grow celery here I plant them in a big store plastic tub that I drill holes to. I put that inside a kiddie pool or a bigger plastic tub I keep full of water. It does miracles for my celery

[@TheSeasonalHomestead]

Love that idea!

[@drakodala1156]

Cute Kian, so natural in speaking in the camera & confident to speak, knows whats he;s doing.. future news caster.

[@EricSmith-lf6cz]

Kian is an absolute STAR! All the kids are great. They show real pride in their gardens. A pleasure to watch.

[@koriwithak777]

I love your videos so much! I’m a single mom and me and my son dream of having a little land and a beautiful garden and some chickens. I loved seeing your children’s little gardens! Thanks for the inspiration:)

[@kaydeelaursen2925]

Love that BYU shirt! Thanks for sharing your sweet spirit

[@suezqcamacho]

How awesome the kids have their own gardens

[@larrybeatson6352]

I love watching your videos! You don't act like some special people that don't have any issues and that's what I like to see! I just subscribed to your channel! Thanks for doing what you do! Don't try to be more than you are! Be like regular people and have all the same issues as everybody else! That's what we as viewer like! Thank you!!!!

[@AlexandraAndStuff]

Ok, so I think I speak for everyone when I say we all love Kian now. Such a hilarious and smart kid, haha. If there is someone to carry on your channel in case you get bored...

[@alysonjenkins4392]

We put corn seeds on a tray covered with wet paper towels. We keep them moist. In a couple of weeks we have little seedlings that we pop into the ground 4-6 inches apart. So easy!

[@ralcayes9079]

Watching this made me want to just go back to the province and live there as a farmer

[@ralcayes9079]

Although i fractured my back due to farming. But still fun to grpw your own food so i do backyard gardening here in the city

[@alexandrah2812]

Despite the setbacks your garden is looking wonderful! 😍 Really enjoyed the tour & how you had the kids show their own gardens, they are all so adorable! What a great personality Kian has.. definitely not camera shy! Love to see a family working together like this! God bless! ❤️🙏

[@carnivoreblues1331]

A bunny?! Yay! Love love love your videos. There seems to me to never be an 'edge' to your voice or body language; it is incredibly refreshing to me and frankly quite unique in my life. Coming to your channel and listening to you is like a breath of air after nearly drowning. It means so much! thank you!

[@longashl]

Love that the kids are super involved. You are living the dream! :)

[@anyasyht]

I find your video so peaceful, I would love to have a garden one day! Loved the garden tour, especially from your kids! So adorable ☺

[@bobbijodubelaar6151]

Thanks for the tour. I loved seeing what the kids were each growing in their own gardens.

[@sorosenb]

Ur kids are so sweet!!! Good luck with it all 😊

[@PlowAndPantryHomestead]

Oh my goodness, Kian is a character. 😂🤣. The garden is looking great!

[@libertybellemedia7165]

Don't you letdown mamma!! Keep kicking butt

[@cherylpresleigh6403]

We are so impressed with all the gardens. The Children’s knowledge by memory of what’s in their gardens is amazing. Loved seeing all that you’re growing! Thank you for sharing.

[@TheSeasonalHomestead]

Kids are smarter and more capable than we often give them credit for :)

[@susanfreeman6350]

As always, your video made my day. I love your experimental spirit in the garden, Becky, and so happy to see success after the rough start with your tomatoes. The kids are incredible. It’s fun to see so much of you and Cameron, not only in their appearance, but in their demeanor. Some so serious, and, as others have mentioned, Kian is such a character. I spent my morning canning dill pickles in a recipe from ATK’s Foolproof Preserving that you recommended a long time ago. I used your recommendation of subbing 5% white distilled vinegar for the apple cider vinegar and I’m excited to see how they turn out. The low temperature pasteurization for pickles was new to me. Thanks.

[@TheSpanishGuitarHub]

This is the kind of life I want to live too. I had digestive issues too and have an allotment. Needed to completely clear my diet to get better, but now I do not eat any processed food and try to grow whatever I can, and the rest I will buy organic. But I wish I had so much space like you to grow that much food. Looks amazing and so much hard work you put in it.

[@ReadingwithMrsInlow]

Great job kiddos.

[@MrClivelupo]

Such a nice Gardentour and so adoable Kids but Kian´s tour and introducing himself was just the icing on the cake

[@ecarr9537]

I agree! The kids are so precious & Kian is definitely a mini Joel Salatin!

[@florencecampbell774]

I’m sure you are very proud of your children.Well done everyone.👍

[@christiaanbianchinawiid309]

I just love the energie you have and the passion for planting food. You have such an wonderful garden and veriety.

[@LA-mn7jr]

Seeing your children in the garden made me smile so big! So heartwarming!

[@Nins-niche67]

Love the garden tours (especially the childrens)

[@gladiasanders7264]

What a beautiful garden that is oh my goodness I am jealous the children all you teach them so well my dad taught me to plant gardens now my yard is too small so I grow in containers so I see your garden and I'm envious love it keep videoing God bless

[@bentolinmaddox9806]

I was not ready for Kian! What a champ !

[@kendraspees3144]

Kian's garden tour reminds me of my son + 5 more years. All of them are doing great! Thank you for sharing!

[@morningstarlet]

My meat pen rabbits are CRAZY about the curly edged kale.

[@seekwisdom5102]

So happy to hear about your tomato solution. Praying its paste tomatoes. Also praying for your irrigation. It changes everything!

[@samanthaw1419]

The children were adorable. loving that they kicked your butt with the tomatoes 😂

[@Cindyscrossstitch]

The kids showing their garden is the best. 🌻

[@alexandralaske9415]

your kids are great and you too

[@joannak4640]

I've been seeing it's been a really hard year on A LOT of growers 💔 Gosh, you certainly were missed. I understand you are busy. I'm happy about your onions. I know you really wanted to succeed with them this year ❤️ The kids gardens look so awesome!! Kian is a trip 😂😂😂

[@katrinalau4137]

Dax is adorable 😍😍

[@farmer-red488]

Kian is a HOOT! You are raising beautiful children!! Well done guys!🌻💗

[@carolyngregory9354]

Your kids are smart gardeners.

[@ragedarealist6545]

Wow! Smart! Hard working! And absolutly stunning . You’re husband is a lucky man. Loved the garden. Can wait to move out of town and do my own stuff .

[@mariemulligan657]

You are such awesome parents...I would have loved to have grown up like this ❤️

[@nancyseery2213]

Every year in the garden is a new learning experience. Keep notes and save seeds and you will be OK. God bless y'all and keep growing

[@tiffanysailor8410]

What a beautiful garden/gardens. Your children are adorable 🥰

[@jacobpayne1]

I was not expecting Kian to steal the show.

[@warthog1086]

For the trap you could put a small bowl upside down in a little bigger bowl and fill the bigger bowl up with water and put bait on upside down bowl . If you wanted cut cage and mount bowl to cage and partially bury bowl in ground so don’t spill or move around and even provides water for rabbit till it’s relocated or harvested.

[@dilmarasevolution]

muito interessante cada criança ter seu jardim com sua preferencias e sempre ajudando no geral. assim se constrói e mantém uma familia unida e produtiva

[@mommabear2many]

Looks so wonderful! I love your experimenting! So many tips I can try. Also it made me more willing to experiment here.

[@liv4gsus61]

Kian's garden tour made my day! 😂😂

[@sunnyacresgarden2433]

We’ve had the best luck with putting half an apple in the rabbit trap!

[@TheSeasonalHomestead]

We'll try that. Thy didn't seem to go for the nuts we put out there!

[@karenr7931]

Thank you for the suggestion. Our garden is fenced but we have had a real problem this summer with a rabbit eating newly planted okra, green beans and my sweet potatoes. :( It leaves it's calling card behind in the form of fertilizer.

[@KevinJames-uh6lp]

What a great video. Thanks for sharing your energy and thoughts with us all 🌶🥕🪴👍🙏🥦

[@caitlynmartinez8125]

I love your sweet family and videos so much Thank you for sharing all your garden knowledge and experiments that’s how I like to garden too lol I love to see it!!

[@altoncheatham7383]

Awesome video y’all.

[@jeanmuehlfelt7942]

For cabbage worms, try Bt (bacillus thuringiensis). The organic farmers use it regularly and it is extremely effective. Saves days of picking worms and/or losing your crops. 😉

[@Root_and_Fleurish_Farm]

Oh my goodness what a ham Kian is 😂 what a great garden tour ♥️

[@deborahtofflemire7727]

Wow great job . All fin and good. From Ontario

[@rodewerk5034]

What we used to do for rabbits was to stake down cheese cloth loosely enough to catch their claws and remove them as we noticed them. I have never seen any other trap that was more effective. It works on squirrels also. Apple cider is probably the best bait for rabbits, the problem is a lot of herbivores are attracted to anything apple. It doesn't seem like a big problem. . . yet. Thanks for the video.

[@cj.972]

Thank u for another update that is always full of really good information. I love that u bring ur kids along in ur family's joinery. They will get so much from what u are teaching them. Keep up loading ur ace video's

[@brandicarballo]

bananas for rabbit bait. I raise rabbits, bananas are by far everyone's favorite treat.

[@emmamarkwell9130]

We use to raise Pencil Cobb Corn.We loved it for corn on the cobb.We lived in Mississippi.Love your videos,

[@4meliaRose]

Kian came to win the Family Garden Tour Cup lol

[@tinabow3812]

I don't know what's wrong with my phone sometimes I get your shows right back to back and lets me know and then there's other times is this shows up I'm having a stroll through and I'm like wait a minute I didn't see this show yet I really enjoy it

[@merijaydoconnor1506]

Wonderful! Would love a video on irrigation setup. Thanks!

[@Ace-ue4id]

Kian is such a character!😅😅

[@TheSeasonalHomestead]

Yes he is!!

[@victorianoel9784]

As for corn, plant two - three corners in one small pot and then transplant them . That's what I did this year. I grow the corn in containers because I live in suburbs so small backyard. I planted almost 60 curnells in 32 containers

[@donnalefeld9725]

Can you do a video on how you save seeds on different type veggies and how to store them for next season. Thankyou ❤️

[@cathyscroggins1420]

The drought has been tough here in Texas as well. Your garden is hanging in there though. The part with your kids was cute.

[@melissabouffard6246]

Thank you so much for the beautiful garden your! I’m always excited every time you post a video! God bless you and your family .

[@KeithSilva2]

Cute kids.

[@lucdeslauriers1021]

Congratulations from Québec, North Canada,!

[@annabodhi38]

This was so awesome, I especially love the 'kids garden tour' and then all of a sudden, it was over! Looking forward to the next video. Thank you so much for all of your hard work and for sharing it with us.

[@alalmaoui5212]

Beautiful family! Teach them while they are still young. Blessings to all from Arizona.

[@rik80280]

Love it! Now that I have a little more space I want to experiment with more cover crops and compost crops. I really like your low tech crimping methods and interplanting ideas.

[@TheSeasonalHomestead]

Let nature do the work for you. It's amazing!!

[@liv4gsus61]

I would totally bait your rabbit trap with strawberries.

[@mickiedoty623]

I loved this video. ❤️

[@kikstartmyx3]

LOVE the kids intro's to their gardens....you've gonna have your hands full with Kian hahaha

[@juliekooiker3408]

What a great job you all are doing and you all look so healthy!!!

[@gardengirl4718]

My rabbits LOVE oats. It's like candy to them! Maybe put a dish of rolled oats in the trap?

[@Beaguins]

I appreciate how honest you are about the results of your experiments. So many things sound good but don't work when we try them. It's been a really rough year for gardens. Squirrels and chipmunks have ravaged mine. I wish I could give you advice about controlling rabbits, but I'm clearly no expert on managing pests! Good luck the rest of the way, and thanks for the tours!

[@lisagilchrist5055]

Love the video! That darn rooster 🤣 So glad you had the kids give a tour of theirs as well. You guys are doing a wonderful job!! 💖

[@billastell3753]

Very interesting to hear about all your experiments, successes and and let's saying learning experiences. Glad to hear your tomatoes are coming along. I had a similar problem this year with all the rain but they are now thriving. You are absolutely right that saving your own seeds improves the results as long as you save from the best plants. With regards to cabbage worms wasp and or hornets will pick them off once they learn where the cabbages are. Thanks for the videos. Thumbs up and a sub from a gardener for 50 years..

[@bettyjorodgers8552]

Excellent. Thank you for the tour.

[@ItsOkayToPray]

i love your videos and you are so inspirational on my gardening journey. Do you have a video describing how you get rid of the garden pest (worms, animals, boers etc)? Thanks so much for all of your videos.

[@victoriaspringle4873]

Most gardeners on youtube that I watch struggle with setting up their irrigation. Don’t feel out of place.

[@robertacleary5256]

Great family and garden thank you for sharing 😄enjoyed seeing all your hard work paying off😊

[@gardenvistas]

Awesome and well presented garden tour! Very nice! Wishing you the best on your garden and channel.

[@wanderingstarfarmhouse]

We have the best luck catching rabbits by putting the trap right in front of the hole they are coming though. We find the trampled grass from them coming and going through a certain hole and set the trap right in front of it--we don't even use bait at all.

[@The_Wentz_Homestead]

Can Kian host more videos, that was hilarious. Reminds me of my 5 year old son who's so goofy.

[@libertybellemedia7165]

Celery looks great!!!

[@vickiesletters5732]

You guys are amazing.I can’t wait to expand my garden

[@soberparty1]

Yesssss!

[@karenr7931]

FYI.. I took the advice from Sunny Acres Garden and used half an apple in our Have A Heart trap to capture what I believed was a rabbit eating our garden. The next morning we had successfully captured a bunny!! Thanks Sunny Acres Garden!

[@ibelieveinpandas]

Very helpful and clear tour! Here in Virginia it has been cooler and dryer than usual. They keep saying it's going to rain and then it doesn't. So I'm watering every other morning and ignoring the weather man.
