You Will Be Shocked At What It Looks Like Now! (Fruit Orchard Tour)

[@ChrisCalmtheCrazy]

For anticipated freezes... we use tall 'Pop-Up Collapsible Mesh Laundry Hamper', cut out about 1/2 of the bottom in a circle enough to put plant inside. Pull the plant thru it and fill with leaves and mulch, even blankets, to give some protection. We also use heated bricks if the temperatures get down to 20 below zero. Cook house building bricks in a wood fired or propane grill, take grill gloves and place 1 to 3 bricks (depending on how low the temp goes) on the dirt beside the pant. Cover brick and plant with tent covers (we use old polyester blankets that we have kept since the 70s or available at any thrift store). Bricks will emit enough heat for the plants and replace each morning or evening depending on daytime temps.

Beautiful orchard Jason ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@julieh9010]

Thank you for your awesome youtube channels. I watch both of them every morning with my 81 year father. He has dementia. He enjoys watching your channel and sometimes comments on all the animals. We also enjoy your Saturday morning kids channel. It makes my 80s kid heart happy. Brings back great memories of Saturday morning cartoons. I told my husband your channel is right up there with Sesame Street and Mr Rogers. It is great for children and all ages. We are big fans in our house. Thank you for sharing about your farm life. It is truly a blessing.

[@cynthiamulholland2976]

Jason your blueberries will come back in full force so be prepared!!! Even without the cold freeze blueberries will sometimes go dormant then skip a year & come back in an explosion the next year!!! Just give them time & you will be overloaded with more fruit than you ever dreamed possible!!! 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@donnaflanagan6612]

A few setbacks, all in all though the orchard is looking wonderful😊🥰

[@Robyn_369]

Your roadside stand is gonna be ROCKIN' even more when all these fruits take off! 😊 🙏 🌱

[@RobinsNestEggs]

I love seeing how your carefully planned orchard is thriving. All yours and Brooke’s hard work is coming to fruition. It’s a joy to watch. 🤗🙏🏽💓

[@debrabeard1830]

I remember earing an unripe persimmon, it was like I had a mouth full of cotton, and I haven't eaten one since!!

[@CynthiaBerry713]

No pun intended, eh? Heheheh.

[@pattywilson9550]

I could not have said how I feel any better. Thank you for posting.

[@lillianperry6451]

I found it very interesting. I have a crabapple tree that was smothered by a lilacbush that died my brother pulled it out with his truck. I noticed the poor little tree and in the spring it burst into bloom. I never knew you could make jelly from them always thought they were to tart to eat.

[@janetwithers7427]

Lovely tour of your fruit orchard. 💞. The trees have really grown a lot.

[@sheilajones4338]

Jason ...LOVED the fruit orchard tour..so Informative..thanks West Texas ❤

[@yvonnemcmahan9037]

The orchard has grown so much. It is beautiful.

[@auntmemo4508]

Awesome educational tour of your gorgeous orchard Jason.

[@marywrigjt7614]

Yes, my grandparents had muscadines and scuppernongs. Brings back memories.

[@elviraobregon5225]

Jason, I love figs and am glad the figs survived. I hope you have an over abundance of figs. This year every time I ordered figs from my grocery store they were out😢😢. I didn’t mind the outrageous price I was so desperately wanted them, I finally gave up.

[@davidleroyemmons]

love watching you talk about your passions

[@annierambo5606]

Jason, your videos are so informative. Love the orchard. Y'all have accomplished so much in such a short time. God bless y'all. Love and prayers.❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤

[@nancyamick8202]

Love the muskadine grapes and persimmons and figs, well everything you’ve planted! Wish I was your neighbor!❤️

[@candiwine]

Thank you for the update. I miss this type of your vlogs.

[@dianapulido1807]

I really enjoyed the tour of the fruit orchard. It will be great too see it as it matures.

[@kimberleawilson3545]

Jason, you make growing seem easy. You are a humble man, you and Brooke have put in a lot of work to get it to this point! There isn’t a single doubt in my mind, you will continue to be very successful. You guys do your research and are great stewards to the preservation of the indigenous fruits to the area. ❤ That freeze dryer is going to be very busy for years to come!

[@cherylkoenig5509]

Jason, you and Brooke are simply amazing.

[@oceanhome039]

Your orchard demonstrates the care, research and hard work that you put into its development. I love any success story , but this one is heartwarming. Thank you for your thoughtful videos. I look forward to and enjoy everyone. 🇨🇦💕

[@dianeh5044]

I couldn’t be more excited and happy for you. Your hard work and knowledge made your orchard awesome. Fingers crossed for better weather conditions in the future. The fig trees we have in the north get wrapped and covered in the cold months but NY weather is so different from yours. The good Lord willing I hope to see when everything is mature and full of fruit and berries.💕

[@aquiltingmama]

Jason and Brooke, it has been such a pleasure watching all of your dreams come true on this beautiful farm. You folks are hard workers and deserve all that you have achieved. It can only get better.

[@valerietromble]

Have you checked your persimmon seeds to see what your winter will be like

[@shirleygrant8538]

It was great seeing how the fruit orchard has changed

[@9liveslisa]

Love the praying mantis! Whenever I see one, I always think it is a good omen. 😃 The orchard is looking beautiful! I love fig trees. I used to live in a house with 2 fig trees in the backyard. Lots of figs on the trees every year. We also would get raccoons in the fig trees. They would come at night and we could hear them in the trees. We'd go outside with a flashlight and we'd see bright pairs of eyes staring back at us. It always amused us. There were enough figs for us and the raccoons. Your farm is a little slice of heaven!

[@heidiDonato]

didnt know there were so many types of figs your a walking book of knowledge thankyou

[@BoxVanMan]

Can't put my finger on why, but your tours are just so much more enjoyable than other channels.

[@pamelahousley7543]

The orchard looks amazing -

[@bonniestawski219]

Thank you Jason for Sharing there's about the orchard. I always love everything you show about it. Any video you make is fabulous! I love yall!

[@johntatum1951]

Thanks Jason, boy those figs looked goooood...yuuuuuum!This fruit orchard has so much poetential. Thanks for the update!

[@mikecox3659]

It's a beauty .... all the best from Arkansas!!!

[@paulabrown5983]

Thank you Jason I really enjoyed the tour of the fruit orchard. I hope you will continue to keep us updated from time to time. One day soon the orchard is going to so beautiful when everything is in bloom!

[@phyllislowry6265]

It was good to see the fruit orchard. I was so sad when you lost some of the bushes & trees from that frost. I don't remember ever eating muscadines, but my Southern granny born in 1889 told me she used to make muscadine wine! There's a challenge for you, making muscadine wine! I am happy to see the fruit orchard looking so good. I love blackberries, raspberries & strawberries. My Ukrainian grandmother in Canada, grew raspberries by the bushel. I would stand at her bushes as a kid & eat until I would almost be sick. Ukrainians serve fresh raspberries & cream as dessert all of the time, which is my favorite.

[@janinebell763]

The Orchard is great. I love figs and buy them all the time.

[@cub221954]

New show on Saturday for kids...great for preschoolers...Cog Hill Farm Sesame Street. Lol

[@peggyzion8448]

As kids, we used Asian pears to play baseball...lol. They were so hard and grainy, even after trying to let them ripen, we could never eat them. My mom used them to bake pies. BUT, we ate the Bartlett's till we couldn't get off the pot. Yummy!

[@megslittlehouseinthecountry]

Your fruit orchard is doing very well despite the set backs. I love how it is thriving! And figs seem to be very resilient! 💖💖💖

[@benjaminspencer6507]

I love seeing the orchard!! I'm 70 years old and I remember at about 11 or 12 eating peaches at my grandparents home and throwing the "stones" over the hill behind their house. Today, there are 4 or 5 peach trees that are "wild" and still produce peaches. How about a couple banana trees, just for fun!!!

[@valrummel7215]

We grow a variety of Kiwi in Monroe Washington. They are massive and 25 years old.

[@garymixson687]

I grew up hanging in a tree eating wild muskadine grapes here in North Central FL. Between those and loquat plums...aka.. Japanese plums, I had plenty to snack on.😊

[@Geminigem-2349]

You amaze me. You work so hard on your orchard and it is absolutely beautiful. You should be so proud of your work.

[@jackiesaylor2487]

I remember when I was a little girl. We used to use crab apples to write on the sidewalk.

[@mwhiddon54]

Love listening to, and learning from you. Your enthusiasm is infectious!

[@karenspeer7378]

[@angiebrewer9960]

Not just a planned orchard, your entire farm is beautifully planned!!

[@patmcdonald4607]

I can hear so much joy in your voice when your doing anything in the garden. It's looking very good. I don't see Holly.

[@KathyCoker53]

You have put in so much work but now have an amazing place. Praying the weather starts cooperating with you!

[@jessicajackson9164]

[@judybass4339]

Good morning! NC

[@renebates8090]

I love to hear you talk about gardening. I grew up on a farm that had a fruit orchard. It had, pear trees, apple, cherry. We had tons of black raspberries, in the summer us kids had a blast in that orchard. We also, in the yard, we had a mulberry tree. I didn't care for them, way to sweet. My dad complained all the time about that tree because the birds would eat the mulberry then make a purple mess on his truck....😅😅 I live in Michigan 😊❤

[@marshabevis3768]

My grandparents owned half a city block and I would say 3/4 of that was garden and fruit orchard. My grandpa grew apples, pears, plums, cherries, blackberries, grapes, and more. In the garden, he grew peanuts, strawberries, okra, corn, beans, peas, and so much more that I can't remember. Us cousins would get together, steal the dog's food dish, rinse it out, and go picking. We would get caught and told we were going to be sick if we ate it all. I never remember getting sick from eating all that. It was so good and still warm from the sun.

[@poorthing]

​@@marshabevis3768 sounds like great childhood memories, kids that have had a 'country-ish' kind of Summer had the best!

[@poorthing]

Indiana here, oh yes.. The Midwest has great farm/orchards. Like many of us commenting, Jason sure helps us remember great childhood memories of country Summers.

[@marcelitabellaesconde2258]

Way to go Jason ! I'm excited for you !.... 😊

[@littledude5311]

Jason, for a man that only has two hands you sure know how to get the work done at CH.

[@lookingforbluewater6162]

Your orchard is looking wonderful!! Great job Jason!!❤ Thanks for the update 🥰

[@Emily-by4kx]

That's a beautiful orchard. ❤❤❤❤

[@annduffy1356]

What a beautiful orchard. Your tree method becomes espaliered trees, have you looked them up? You can actually buy them that way. 😮

[@Kymberlee_W]

Seeing the figs brought back such memories for me. I grew up on a small, 10-acre farm in rural SC. We had 1 huge fig tree beside our house that would fill a room and you could pick figs off the top off the tree from a 2nd floor window. Crazy, right? I don't know what kind of fig it was, but it grew so big that my dad would cut it completely back about every 7 years. But my fondest memory is of my dog, Tasha, picking ripe figs for herself from the bottom branches. She was a German Shepherd so she could reach pretty high. My mama used to complain that Tasha picked all her figs lol. My mama was short, so she'd have to get a ladder to pick them.

[@scorpio11359]

I Love ❤️ Love me some Muscadins...I will be 64 in November and I can remember when we was kids and my Granpaw raised them, us kids would stand under the vins and eat them....Yummy, Love from NC

[@debbiec.3763]

Ya'll have such a great attitude about farm and orchard life. You know there's good and bad with anything but, you don't let it keep you down.

[@catherineramsey5375]

Good morning.

[@louisecataldo118]

Oh Jason. You should be so proud!!! Your orchard is beautiful. So happy for you. I can hear the excitement in your voice. It must be so relaxing for you. Good job!❤

[@chichitex1252]

The orchard is really coming on! I love the espaliered method!❤❤❤

[@joycecutter3358]

It was great to get an update on the fruit orchard it has grown so well it certainly will be a beautiful orchard once everything is fruiting for you all xx

[@teresahix5658]

Wow! Orchard looks beautiful!! Glad to hear an update on it. ❤

[@fallbrkgrl]

I'm not a bug person. In fact, I've been afraid of most bugs my entire life, but I love praying mantis. They are absolutely fascinating to watch. Love to see them turn those little heads towards you, as if they are saying hello. Haven't ever encouraged one to climb on me yet, but I will. The orchard looks beautiful Jason. A lot of hard work has gone into it, and it's definitely something to be proud of. ❤️🌵☀️⛈️🌈☮️🐎🐕🦍

[@cynthiamulholland2976]

I had a praying mantis as a pet for several years!!! I found it in my roses & it came & set on my shoulder!!! Eventually it came into my house!!! It would sit on my shoulder & watch TV in the evenings!!! Many took care of the flies in my house!!! I fed him lettuce & grasses & he was a joy to watch!!! After about 4 years I got up one morning & his aquarium was empty!!! I don't know what happened & I never did find him!!! I think he knew it was time to go & slipped out the door & I just didn't notice!!! I searched every plant, shelf & room in my house!!! He was a good friend & loved it when I talked to him!!! Praying Mantis usually don't live very long so I'm thankful for the time he was around & chose me to be his friend!!! Don't ever be afraid of them!!! They are harmless I assure you!!! 😀😀😀❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@fallbrkgrl]

@@cynthiamulholland2976 What a cool story! Thank you for sharing your experience with your friend. They are one of my favorite things to photograph. I moved a year ago, and unfortunately haven't had found any in my new yard.

[@marshabevis3768]

I love the praying mantises. They are sp cool with their big eyes and triangular head. They're so helpful in the garden, too.

[@shawnfranke2637]

That orchard looks great! And I wouldn’t have thought about a trellis system for trees, etc. Fabulous information! Thanks for sharing! Stay safe and blessed all! ♥️🙏♥️

[@briankeithfisher7305]

I have lived in Korea for the past 16 years and absolutely love eating Asian pears because of their huge size, texture, and juiciness - out of this world! Jason, you will gratefully thank yourself for growing them. Persimmon trees are popular here too but the pears are my favorite!

[@cheriwhitley8385]

How beautiful is that orchard!!..🩷

[@carrolganoe9896]

[@juliettefields7202]

Looking wonderful, Jason! I know Brooke is itching to get some of that fruit in your freeze dryer! ❤

[@lenellamaxwell6934]

Your orchard is becoming so beautiful and it looks like it will be so productive. You started it right and it is wonderful! Nice job, Jason & Brooke. You two are a wonderful team. You do your research, you make good decisions, and you learn from your mistakes. You always have a good attitude about everything. With that being said, you are human and we all have our negatives, but I love that you keep your channel so upbeat and positive. And I love your kids channel too. Looking forward to tomorrow's episode! Keeping you guys in my prayers. Love ya!

[@stephenullman4534]

About the best tutorial of fruit trees I've ever heard. Wonderful explanation of how you're going about building your orchard Jason. You're very smart on your approach. You'll become a master at this in no time. Seeing you're already a master wordsmith. 😂. You're doing an amazing job on your farm. Congratulations on your progress!

[@lindaduncan5541]

I enjoyed seeing and hearing about your orchard Jason. I learn so much from you! The orchard is beautiful and designed so well. It’s young now, but in a few years, it will be maturing and will yield more fruit than you can handle! Thanks for sharing! 💕
