According to my grandfather, who was an Iowa farmer, "Knee high by the 4th of July" is what he always said in regards to corn.

[@deannathethriftycorgi1581]

Isn't it wonderful to have someone to thrift with?? Love you guys! Your happiness shines like a light.

[@notmeme1859]

Random. I was watching a training video for work. At the end it said "go out and be great" but I automatically said in my head "go out and get what's yours!" 😂

[@melindacase9769]

My grandparents always said corn should be knee high by the Fourth of July. I love your videos and all your great finds!

[@heathergallagher2981]

That’s what I have always heard too.

[@payattention31]

Good to know about corn.

[@karakoverman1287]

Same saying in Ohio from my farming family members.

[@joyceritchie-charnetzky9934]

That’s what we say about corn in Indiana

[@lorettafoster783]

I always heard the same. Most of the corn in your area is feed corn and generally not harvested until September/October.

[@lauramclaine504]

Your videos are so relaxing watching you and your husband out in the sun enjoying yourself shopping and eating breakfast is such a joy to watch. I’m so happy you found your happiness. You both are a great success.🦋

[@olivia3506]

I love you video’s and I would really love to see how you pack your breakables for shipping please ❤

[@christineprescott2417]

I absolutely LOVE that Woven lamp shade. I have never seen one like that, ever.

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Right? I am in love with it, & for only $2? What a deal!!

[@maryarwood8942]

I’m with Roger on the milkshake.

[@pattihuesken9583]

Spelt is a type of wheat Karen, spalt is the fungi in the wood. Enjoying your videos as always! ♥️

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Wow, the fact that you cleaned that rug shows how much you care about the inventory you sell! I have watched resellers who have their inventory (clothing especially) shoved all over the place. When I see things stored in a less desirable way, it makes me not want to buy from them. You take such good care of your inventory & are so organized, I would not hesitate to buy from you. (I just downsized, so I’m not looking to bring more items into my home at this time, but never say never😂) xo

[@nancylee533]

Karen, why do I love watching you pull solds ? Enjoy your channel ❤

[@suekrebs3497]

Very enjoyable. You have such a soothing voice. It's so nice to see a happy couple!

[@TheCoolnTheNicNac]

Haha Nothing wrong with Ice cream for breakfast! My husband was having our oil changed once and we were by a Thrifty's. I asked my young kids if they wanted Ice cream for breakfast?! Mom win!!

[@kathycoblentz4852]

knee high by fourth of July is what we have always said! You guys are so fun to watch!

[@barbknight7803]

That’s what I grew up with, too❤. “Knee high by 4th of July”. We’re surrounded with corn & soybeans in Eastern South Dakota…I LOVE driving around here❤

[@tracyrodriguez4793]

Wow! That lamp shade is a SCORE. Nice pick Karen. 😊

[@lavenderclothesline]

It really is! Thanks!

[@rebeccarose2346]

I am not a reseller, but you have got me motivated to shop at Goodwill and go to Flea Markets again. I had spinal surgery a few years ago and do not walk as good as I once did, so I stay pretty close to home, but, I am going to start venturing out. I enjoy your videos so much. I love watching you and Roger shopping together, so nice. Glad you picked up the bird pictures, they were so nice.

[@trixiegirlism]

Your closet is lovely. I would recommend a small 2 step folding step ladder to use to access the top shelves. It's safer than a step stool. It can be folded up and tucked behind the hanging pants. I admire your restraint in the size of your wardrobe.

[@deborahparadis3442]

Do we love a pocket door? Yes we do!!! 🥰 I had them put in in my basement remodel in my last home; loved them!!! Every home needs to have them (somewhere)!!!🥰 Loved your video! I'm with Roger on the milkshake, any time is a good time for a milkshake! 🥤🐮

[@loriquinn2850]

I am having a great time watching you showing the inside of the item I ordered--The Japanese writing set. I absolutely love it's uniqueness, beauty, condition and history. Thanks for picking that up;). Do I love a good Japanese writing set?, Yes I do"

[@lavenderclothesline]

Thank you so much! 💜💜

[@kyhilltophome3153]

I am in 3 vintage photo groups on Facebook.. Quite often people get their photos from auctions and flea markets then try to find descendants who are thrilled to get them back. It's tragic how many treasures get discarded by someone who doesn't care when there are family members that want them.

[@kathyaldridge7171]

Hi Karen! You might be a "sucker for a bowl", but I am a sucker for a pie plate, lol! My husband even commented on the towering stack of pie plates I own. I mentioned this to a worker at Goodwill adding, "I'm a sucker for a pie plate" and he replied, "I'm a sucker for a pie!"

[@payattention31]

😂😂

[@TheAntiqBoutiq]

As always 😊an enjoyable trip. Someday your tombstone will read, “You guys know me…” Lol and we do! I’m truly so happy for you.

[@jellybeanparis584]

Love your Vlog!

[@brendaclement5081]

Such a pleasure to spend time with You and Roger this afternoon. Yes the the Corn and Land is just Beautiful. Love the Closet as well. There is nothing better than Pocket doors, every door in my home we owned as my kids was growing up had pocket doors. Have a great week you two.

[@sharont3406]

Your area looks like where we live in SC. I'm always surprised to see youtubers who live in the country. We have corn, peanuts, cotton and sometime soybean fields around us.

[@nancyshattuck141]

Knee high by the fourth of july Is the guideline my father always went by for corn in michigan But I don't know how it is in pennsylvania On the 25th of July.

[@karenadams138]

That's what we always said in Pennsylvania too 😊

[@independenceproject18]

I think the saying is with corn: it should be knee high by the Fourth of July! Great vlog as always!!

[@barbarascarpa26]

Amazing couple❤

[@glendasully]

I love how organized your closet is! Your sales are doing well and that makes me happy for you!

[@KLeonardM]

Such a varied video. I loved this one Karen. So much fun....

[@tamaramason9424]

Corn is supposed to be knee high by the Fourth of July in my area of Thousand Islands NY and it’s ready by the first week in August.

[@rachelcampbell675]

Love your videos! I enjoyed the scenery clip. My mom lives in New Holland. I think July is one of the most beautiful times of the year in Lancaster. My father was a produce farmer when I was younger and his goal was to have sweet corn by July 4th. It always depends on when you can get the seed in the ground and then water and temperatures after that. If the ground is to wet in the spring and it delays the planting, then it’s not ready for July 4th. 😄

[@payattention31]

Oh usually corn is ready by mid-August where I grew up.

[@tweedandfeathers6302]

Oh, that's interesting. My family was from Illinois, and the expression I always heard was that corn should be knee high by the fourth of July.

[@lanapeske8931]

Hi Karen! I enjoy your videos. I haven’t missed one! I also switched my whole store to ground advantage with calculated shipping. If it is a heavier item I ship priority. You can always upgrade and still use priority boxes. The cost is similar. Sometimes less!

[@lisaockerman9940]

You really live in a lovely area. I have always heard corn should be “knee high by the 4th of July” here in Kentucky. Thanks for sharing your shopping trip.

[@Sunshine33333]

When you mentioned Roger sold the knock hockey, what a jog to my memory that was, I had forgotten all about knock hockey, oh we all loved to play it back in the day, sadly, I'm showing my age. The lampshade was truly beautiful Karen, and the corn fields looked glorious.

[@debbied3116]

Corn will not be ready til around November. I grew up on a dairy farm and we grew lots of crops. They are beautiful when you look aross the fields. Thanks for sharing!

[@robinmp3841]

The saying goes, "Knee high by the 4th of July" for the corn. Love the lampshade!

[@Grace2010H]

9:10 - I spy an old Duran Duran poster on the ground. 🥰🥰🤣🤣🤣

[@cloverdo-over2541]

We're in West Virginia growing zone 6a. The saying that has always been used for corn here is, "knee high by the fourth of July". Corn takes a long time to grow so here it's usually an August harvest.

[@Lulu5771]

I’m always happy when I get up and see your video is up! Got my coffee and I’m all settled in to see what you and Roger have been up to. I’m originally from NJ and used to go to PA at least once a year for a trip to the Lancaster area. I loved the Amish and antique shopping. Of course the country side is beautiful it reminds me of growing up on a beautiful dairy farm. I’m living in Phoenix now and I really miss the greenery ! Also it’s hot as heck here right now, gonna be 118 today, yikes! Thank you for a really nice start to my day ! So happy to see you and Roger settling in as a married couple now. I also triple love your new closet ! Wow, it looks great ❤

[@beforetreasures]

As a former farm boy. The expression with corn is “Knee High by the Fourth of July”! Great video and appreciate you.

[@charlenejones68]

Karen and Roger, Thank you for another enjoyable video! You guys never disappoint. Watching from Anchorage, Alaska. 🙂🤗💕✌

[@RoseFaubush]

You are such an inspiration! I have been telling myself and my husband each morning “I’m going to go out there and channel my inner lavender today” as a positive affirmation. I’m just starting out with selling and I love your enthusiasm, encouragement and how well you explain things. Thank you for putting out these videos.

[@phyllisburris7093]

You guys saved a ton of money & time not having to move your basement inventory. Great idea adding addition to your home.

[@susanhernandez7290]

Corn is suppose to be knee high by 4th of July in Illinois.

[@darleneakstayawhile427]

Enjoyed the scenery that brought back wonderful memories of our visit there and our stay in a "tourist home" that looked like homes you were driving by. What a blessing to live in such a peaceful, charming area. The farmers make it beautiful with their "organized corn" (love that)!

[@miriambrooks1087]

Your organization is very impressive! The flea maket was fun. Thank you for sharing the lovely PA landscape.

We had a cool spring in California...that would make corn late in PA?.

[@mythoughts6922]

They are like a senior Barbie and Ken ( Grand parents.) If they made them into replica dolls, they would cruise over to babysit in a pink convertible Mercedes Benz. Roger would be in white pants and an aqua blue polo, and a pink sweater wrapped around his neck and top siders. Karen would be in a white knee length boho dress, with pink accents, aqua blue sandals and white pearl necklace , earrings and bracelet.

Loved the painted tray. I believe that is a Jacobean print.

[@mary.reynolds6391]

Yes that first item is for Crumbs. As a waitress at Shanty Creek Lodge in Michigan...we used those to tidy up at tables for patrons. Knee by the fourth of July./ Corn.😊

[@StephanieCroquez]

You are right about the corn and frankly a lot of the vegetables this year! Love this video, especially this week - so calming in our crazy weather (Bucks County PA). Love the organized corn!

Your driving view looks like mine. I live in a small town in Ohio. As soon as you leave, it's farms and cornfields. Love your closet. My house is an older house with small closets but we make it work.

You are SO organized!!! I’m guessing that is the only way to be efficient with that amount of inventory

[@paraleezappa9271]

I’ve loved your videos so much as I told you from the beginning. I’ve been ill or had family issues and still not on eBay. I’m amazed how much get done!!! You and Roger are amazing. I need your energy! I’ve packed all my stuff up and took a room, hubs calls the Jenga room!!

[@brendavukich8194]

Corn should be planted by the 4th and ready to pick around Early September. That’s what we do here on our farm (Seattle) but if it’s field corn they like to plant sooner so it gets chopped before all the rain

[@Kate-oi6ct]

You could have a lot more space in the basement if you put all the clothing from the round racks on double racks kind of like the system in your closet. You could build or buy the good racks and make sure to put the heavier items on the bottom or anchor them so they wouldn't fall over. Organization makes me happy and I try but you are the Queen! Thanks for sharing!

[@deborahcostello8214]

In lower Delaware, so about 3 hours south of you, we are very happy if the corn comes in by the 4th of July, but usually get it by the 2nd week of July. We were close to the 4th this year so I would think yours would be about 2 weeks after that due to you being further north. Just a guess, I'm not a farmer.

[@rebeccaofpollywogflatts8976]

Coming from a long line of farmers in central NJ, the old saying I learned many years ago is: "corn should be knee high by the 4th of July"

[@marvineblackburn7846]

Love the little bamboo box ❤

[@earleendoute492]

The corn you see along your route, looks like field corn. It won't be harvested until late Oct. early Nov. depending on how much it dries. Farmers want it within a certain low moisture content, in order for it to be stored in silos so it won't get moldy.

[@patcarter7575]
