We bought 1,200,000 POUNDS of gravel - WHAT'S IT COST??

[@savvydirtfarmer]

I’ve never been so excited about rock!!

[@Horizonnetworkscc]

How big is the lot I have 4 acres I’m thinking about clearing and turning into an equipment storage lot so just wondering about how much it would cost around?

[@bri0013]

That dang internet cable was most certainly holding up some serious progress. You win twice. Room to grow and less grass and weeds to cut.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

YES!! We';; still plenty of weeds, but much fewer.

[@dantolen3969]

Your video production has gotten fantastic. The music and the fast motion gravel spread was on point. That style of video is fun to watch.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

We're trying to get better... definitely not our strong point.

[@patriciahogg5763]

Exciting!! Best wishes for success! What an inspiration! 🌼🌼🌼

[@ourcoupleofacres8859]

[@brettmathews6866]

Great job bud, lots of hard work paying off!!!

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Thanks... we hope so!

[@nel6211]

Congratulations! You've come a long way from just a "backyard nursery". As you grow I hope you'll still find time for videos. Good luck.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

I hope so too!

[@danradtke1663]

Awesome progress.👍

[@underthesun]

I'm so glad for you. God bless your endevours!

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Thanks so much!

[@Notthelizard]

You make me feel like I could build my own nursery someday. You make it seem simpler than it is. Thanks

[@savvydirtfarmer]

That's the goal - you can!

[@dreaminggreennursery]

Wow that looks so cool! You guys have come so far! This is getting exciting. I can't wait til spring, this will be my first year open for business so there's still a lot I got to get set up and figure out. Thanks for all of your time and knowledge in this adventure.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Good luck!!

[@johnt3728]

Im excited for you and I’m just watching it.❤

[@jeffhughes1862]

I love a fresh layer of gravel!

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Absolutely!

[@anniathome]

So excited for you! Having that 4-6+week deadline makes it all seem really real! Praying for your health and strength!

[@rosacruz6135]

So happy for you guys!,,

[@lindakay8171]

So excited for you and the family!!!! I do not have a nursery but enjoy watching the progress you are making each day and am learning things about plants that I never knew before, so thank you!! (I don't know who your family is rooting for today but I live about 30 minutes from Philadelphia so I'm in EAGLES country) Good luck to both teams!!

[@pamelamercado6902]

Your property is coming along real nice. I'm glad you were able to get gravel down

[@kathydean9099]

[@savvydirtfarmer]

YES!! Hard to understand if you haven't been there.

[@whitneyanderson6050]

Wow. Wonderful. God Bless you and thank you.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

[@Growing-Our-Retirement]

Looks great! A huge step forward! Excited to see how you set up plant sale displays and what you bring in to resell. Will you put up a sign?

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Yes, soon

[@crystalruth3733]

So excited for you guys!!! Such an inspiration for us!!! God Bless you!

[@jparks7874]

Great job, it looks awesome.

Thanks!

[@denisebalog994]

Wow👏👏🎉🎉 Congratulations 🎉 Isn't it amazing you started your heart's desires in your 1500 square foot backyard. Now look at you go! 🏡🌱💚👍

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Yes! Thank you!

[@DaydreamManor]

So exciting!!!

[@mimiartates8956]

Great job!

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Thanks!

[@jkkelley7582]

It looks marvelous!! Love that ROCK!!

[@zone9gigi]

Looks great! Congratulations on another step forward. I’m curious if this came out of your original $50k budget. I’m interested in the numbers and how you manage to remain debt free which is an awesome accomplishment!

[@savvydirtfarmer]

That budget we mentioned was only for the land. Water, electric, house, sewer, gravel, shade houses, plants, fence... everything else, is in addition. We saved for it all. And, the nursery, over recent years, we have reinvested every penny we made into the nursery, now having thousands of plants. And, we sold our house... living off the equity and building the business with it until we can get things rolling. Thankful for the huge increase in home values in the last 2 years... it really helped make this possible.

[@tinarytting3799]

Awesome 👏

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Thanks 🤗

[@lanceb7438]

Making great progress. Do you plan on hiring help to get plants potted and finish getting ready or are you going to try to do it with your family?

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Doing it all ourselves

[@lanceb7438]

@@savvydirtfarmer Lots of work, but probably simpler than dealing with all the stuff that comes with having employees.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

@@lanceb7438 Can't deal with employees right now. Maybe never. That's just not what we're looking to do. At least not now. Everything subject to change, of course.

[@LibertyFallFarms]

Congratulations, you have come a long way since this video.. Lots of hard work and it looked amazing this past weekend when I stopped by. I know that it wasn’t this video but, are you still of the opinion of planting the green giants in the ground is a worthwhile process? I am debating whether or not to prepare a bed for some emerald greens to grow next season. Your advice?

[@savvydirtfarmer]

I would grow them in containers... but I have a good setup for regular/daily water. Otherwise, I would grow them in the ground. Wish you'd have said "hi" when you were here. Didn;t realize who you were until after you left.

[@LibertyFallFarms]

@@savvydirtfarmer I wish that I would have as well. I have conditioned myself not to talk plants if I am on a schedule. I struggle with talking too much lol. I am planning on stopping by during your spring sale.

[@redprankster9317]

Do a video u planting 5 gallons

[@savvydirtfarmer]

?

[@robinbass3133]

Reality!

[@savvydirtfarmer]

Really real, reality!

[@philliphinkle2812]

Is Savvy Dirt Farmer the name of your nursery too?

[@savvydirtfarmer]

It will be Odem's Nursery

[@jimbest5878]

what job did you quit?

[@savvydirtfarmer]

I was a pastor for 24 years

[@philsla]

i'm jealous!!!

[@savvydirtfarmer]

No need.

[@IreneNevins]

You know I'm wayyy smaller and have been for several years.

[@PG_Living]

Looks like a Mr. Beast thumbnail.

[@savvydirtfarmer]

I wish! We're having fun with it.
