Welcome to Early Summer in the Vegetable Garden
It's summertime in the vegetable garden which means plenty of colour from flowers and an abundance of vegetables - well usually! I've only managed to plant out a third of my garden this year for various reasons - will this be enough to feed me?
In today's video we have a wander around the garden to see what's happening!!

Did you make a video of the soup you make with the lamb meat?
No I don’t think I have - sorry!
@huttonsvalleypermaculture it looks good. I like your organization and rotation of your animals. Maybe you can make a routine with your skins too. I live near the ocean and unfortunately the creek behind my land is salt water. But now i think its better than fresh water bcoz if i can set up some solar stills i not only get fresh water but also the salt. If i get started with live stock then hopefully can use that salt to stockpile skins until i have a big enough pile to process. Lol maybe you can make a small cart and have a sheep pull it for you. Many machines were powered by animals such as pumps and grinding mills.
@rashadabdullah9769 haha sheep pulling a cart for me - that would be fun! Producing your own salt and then using it for the skins - would be amazing - love the ambition 😊
Sorry I can't understand I wonder if it has thin long leaves. Caressing with your hand I wonder what is the Latin of this acacia? Sorry my bad english 😅 Maybe Latin name Acacia cognata right?
Yes acacia cognata is correct!! I always admire people who speak more than one language (I don’t) - no apologies needed 😊
@huttonsvalleypermaculture I speak a little bit of English. However, my biggest secret is that I have a ready-made translation app on my keyboard 😂👍🌺Thank you for the information
I got my compost pathways installed over the last few weeks! Loving it all ready, much nicer to walk on and reducing compaction.
9:56 i’m really about doing less work and leaving things in place and having things happen in situ. And so I won’t be harvesting pathways just continue to add to them. My plan has always been to try to cultivate mushrooms in my pathways I also have a few spots around the property that are specific for growing mushrooms already. The mushrooms have the ability to help break things down even faster.
If the beds themselves had plenty of organic material I probably wouldn’t harvest the paths but they still need more. Maybe just lots of mulch added while growing would help. Still trying to work out what’s best but agree less work is the ideal!
Yes they are great to walk on!
Hi Linda happy New Year, lovely to see all your volunteer plants. Just wondering if you are interested in presenting in Moe for Permaculture Week, have sent you an email. thanks, Rosemary
Thanks Rosemary I’ll check it out!
Sheet metal sheers are better. You can find ood ones at flea markets. The handles are longer giving better bone cutting leverage.
That’s a great idea - thank you!!
@huttonsvalleypermaculture my dad had a pair he got from a flea market to cut fish to cook when we went fishing. So easy. Much better than the ones you are using. I really enjoyed your video, thank you for making them. Check mine out if you got some power tools to fix. Not as nice as your videos, but im not looking to make money.
Well done! So much garden food and garden beauty. Opening up the space will ventilate it too. Will you put in floor to ceiling windows and doors to drink in more of your garden views?
Removing the study will open up the living space to lovely garden views and extra light. Too much involved with increasing the window size but it would be fantastic!
What a great video! We have 4 muscovys (sisters) and much to my husbands displeasure they are just for laying. They currently are housed in a room next to our chickens and go into our orchard during the day. We have decided to not clip their wings as I'd much prefer them to be able to get to safety, although they've now decided it's time to explore our fields. We do have to round them up to get them indoors which our sons help with. We are in the planning process of new housing including outdoor runs for the ducks and our chickens, which is easier said then done as I want them to have enough space but also be fox proof. My husband would like meat ducks so we may look to get some in the future. We had our first attempt at preparing a bird to eat last week with one of our roosters, unfortunately we didn't get the water hot enough when scalding so plucking was difficult and we don't have a machine. We ended up skinning him in the end which worked well and his meat was so much nicer than a chicken!
Looks fantastic 😊
Thanks ☺️
Thanks for checking in with us 🧡
Thanks Alice!
So good to see you back. Your garden seems happy to carry on it's production while you are busy with the house. I wondered how you were and your health, and how you were getting on with the renovations. I am moving house soon and have noticed volunteer potatoes , tomatoes and various flowers coming up in the new garden from the previous owner, which I am pleased about. I will be putting in No Dig beds and hope to have a garden similar to yours with lots of different produce and flowers. I am in New Zealand.
It sounds like you’re going to have a wonderful garden!! Good luck with the move, it's a big job but worth it in the end.

How exciting Jeanette with a garden filled with seeds and lots of surprises ahead!! Good luck with your new garden!
Thanks for the update Linda. I really enjoyed it, especially seeing all your wonderful volunteers!
Thank goodness for volunteers - no garden this year without them haha!!
Your sunny summer garden is quite welcome on my feed today, as I sit and watch the snow fall and prepare for frigid temps this week in Ohio!
I know what you mean - I always enjoy a northern summer veg video when I’m shivering here in the cold & wet winter. Never snow - I think that could be fun (but only occasionally haha)!! Thanks for watching and sharing!
@@huttonsvalleypermaculture Theres snow today in Florida, I saw in my FB feed - shut the area down full stop hahaha
@MartinaSchoppe hi Martina! I think if we had snow here it would shut everything down - I feel for them - although it would be pretty exciting too (for a day or two!!)
@@huttonsvalleypermaculture I've lived here my entire life and still get excited every year for snow!
@@huttonsvalleypermaculture we have no "real" winters here anymore either. Just a few days below freezing and maybe some with snow. But according to a certain President, there is no global warming, so there is no global warming! Snow in Florida prove it... 🤐
So good to see you! Your garden looks wonderful. Looks like you were having gorgeous weather when you filmed this video. I'm envious. We had snow this morning. The current temperature is 26°F/-3C with a wind chill of 13°F/-10°C. Best of luck with your garden. Hoping your renovations are completed soon.
Hi Vicki - that sounds a bit too cold for me! Yes while you guys are having a real winter this year it’s a real summer here - dry and hot! The last few years summers have been cooler with quite a bit of rain so having to adjust to watering the garden again! Thanks for watching & rug up!!
Hi Linda, there is so much in your garden, I hope your freezers are still hooked up even in a temp kitchen. We have had weird semi Winter weather and the garden is going really slowly, fingers crossed the warm weather comes soon. Take cae as always. =-)
Wow it’s amazing how different the climates are. I’d describe this summer as a real summer - hot & dry. Unlike recent summers that sound more like what you’re going through. Yes freezers are hooked up outside so at least & can park a bit of produce in them!! Good luck with the weather - hope you get some sunshine for your garden (& vitamin d) soon xx
Hello Linda , I love seeing you especially in the garden surrounded by volunteers. The echinacea are looking fantastic, as are your zinnias . I'm glad you have some veg growing but I know how hard it is when you don't have a full kitchen to cook or preserve in. I hope you can get at least , your sauerkraut done with the cabbages. Hopefully the builder will be done soon for you . Enjoy your summer garden lovely and thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Naomi it’s great to hear from you - I hope all is well with you & the family!! House is no where near finished - I’m hoping the builder will start soon (had to change the builder so having to wait!!) Thanks again xx
Last season I had an unpleasant experience with a volunteer cucumber. At first I was delighted to see the seedlings emerge, the vines were incredibly vigorous. Alas, they never produced any blooms or fruit. The vines were almost "thorny" and fought back when I pulled them out of the garden. It is good to see your post. I always enjoy seeing your garden as we are in the deep winter now and expecting overnight lows of -6C
Ooh thorny cucumber plants is no fun. Neither is -6°C!! Good luck with that & thanks again for your ongoing support xx
Lovely to see you and you're looking well. The garden still looks amazing and I hope your home will be finished soon.💚
Hi Christa thanks for that! Home still quite a way off but that’s ok, I’m comfortable in the space I’m living in !
Good to see you again Linda, your garden is so generous, so many volunteers!! Hope you are keeping well 😊🌿
I feel blessed to have such a giving garden !! I’m pretty good - hope you are too ☺️
So it is wonderful to see your face and garden again and I hope you're doing much better. I'm so happy to see the work you've done over the years continue to feed you while you've not been able to plant as much as normal. I hope your kitchen is nearing completion. It's difficult/frustrating to grow and not be in a position to preserve the abundance. I'm pleased to say your inspiration with zinnias led me to a great "production crop' at TAFE ❤😂 i'm also expecting my first jaune flamme tomato harvest and designing a much smaller but integrated chicken, orchard and garden system than originally in my head, now that realism is kicking in 😂 Here's to a kick-ass New Year 🎉
Good to hear from you Deborah! Unfortunately kitchen is no where near starting! Had to change builders as scope of work increased following my demo work & discovering where mould actually was. Needed a builder with insurance- hopefully he’ll start in a few weeks time. Jaune flamme tomatoes are pretty delicious! Good idea to have a manageable sized project - can always extend down the track!! Zinnias- beautiful 😍 Thanks for sharing 😊
Looking forward to seeing the results, if you share them. I changed builders too, and may be in for winter 😊
Yes of course I’ll share! It would be great to be in by winter - good luck!!
Nice looking day at your place Linda. We mowed the tree plantation today. We kept getting washed out. We have eaten heaps of mangos plums and apples. sweet corn, water melons Only have macadamias dropping now

I’m in central Vic and growing yakon for my second year in a wicking bed in my small backyard. I really like the fresh taste. I started with one plant which I got 7 tubers off and divided into two plants this year. I dug up as the plant leaves and stems turned brown before the winter cold set in. Cut back like you and buried again. Last year the leaves got attacked by white fly. None so far this year..thanks for your info and seeing how you manage this plant
Thanks Marie - pleased to hear that you are having success with yacon also. Haven't had any white fly issues and hope they stay away for you this year!! Happy gardening and thanks for watching!!
Very informative. Thank you.
Thanks for watching 😊
Hello Linda, thank you very much for such a detailed and step-by-step plan for the arrangement of the garden and Swale
My pleasure- thanks for watching 😊
That rooster jump started my heart.
Hi Linda The Latin name of this fig tree is Ficus caricaSo if it is not a variety, what is its Latin name? Of the flat-leaved one Because when I typed the name of the variety, I couldn't find any dataThanks for the information about icnir with flat leaves 😊
Do any stores sell Yacon in the USA?
I’m sure there would be some that sell it. A quick google search says that ya on is cultivated in many places including the US. Perhaps give your local nursery a css as if an online search comes up with nothing. Good luck!!
As Filipino. I cringe a little bit when you decided to throw away the gizzard and intestines. We processed almost all of the duck including the blood, except feathers.. most of the time. Its only the feathers and talons that are thrown away. Take that for nothing wasted.
Well done!! I admire you for your waste not want not attitude! I never learnt this growing up, so slowly slowly I’m learning the value of this supposed waste! Thanks for sharing!!
This video was suggested to me tonight, so hopefully you will see this comment a year later... Do you find that the parchment paper helps prevent freezer burn?
Hi Christina thanks for watching!! The paper does pretty well - helps reduce my plastic use which is good. I do get through the duck quite quickly - usually within 6 months. I think if it’s kept longer than that freezer burn might start to be an issue
This will be my first year harvesting Yacon, thanks for the video, very helpful 😊🌿
Congratulations- enjoy!!
Hi Linda I really love Tagasaste trees. Do you Use Animal manure in your garden? Also, your fruit trees look very healthy despite being so young.
Hi there - I love tagasaste trees too!! I use a lot of animal manures - in compost making and around my fruit trees - helps everything grow well!
@@huttonsvalleypermaculture Thank you for the information. So, is animal manure in our garden causing these insects mole cricket? (Gryllotalpa gryllotalpa) If so, what solution did you follow for this? Because he ate my plants like walnuts, Melia azaderach, his roots It also destroys the roots of my plants in every pot. I don't know how to manage instead of fighting I hope your opinion will be formed Thank you 🤗
wax should help to get the fether off, Pluckers for ducks and bigger birds would help
Thanks for the tips!!

When we were kids, we just plant sweet potatoes, not adding fertilizer, and our harvest are good, selling them to the market. But this days, we have to fertilize them, spray them with insecticide, during their 2 moths period, for us to have good harvest.
Thanks for sharing!! I hope you continue to get good harvests.
Love your trellis set up Linda. I will try double podding next time. I do hope you are on the improve health wise and the reno makes every difference. 🙏❤️ Kayleen

Thank you for the information
My pleasure!
Hi, Linda. So good to see you in the garden. Broad beans are not something I have ever tried to grow here in southeast USA. The plants and blooms are striking. We have had our first killing frost and are going into winter. I recently planted and mulched my onion sets; because our winters are usually mild with dips into the below-freezing range, the onions will be fine and primed for spring growth. I have been attending to the usual end of season chores: cutting the asparagus, side dressing with compost and mulching; trimming and protecting the dwarf bananas and figs; putting blanketed huts over my citrus. I wish you a successful journey to robust good health.
Wow sounds like you’ve been very busy!! Hopefully your winters will continue to be mild. Yes it’s good to get back into the garden. I’ve finished in the house for the moment. Have to wait on a builder who is 2 months away (original builder fell through - turns out no insurance). So I have plenty of catch up time in the garden. And hopefully time for a video or two! Look after yourself Sue, in addition to your hubby (hope all is going ok with him xx)
Love the fava beans. The scent of the flowers definitely was something this season. I've harvested my green ones for freezer and this year have saved many dry ones to try making felafel 😊 That trellis system sure would have helped here! 😂 Lovely to see your face. Thanks also for the message on Nacho's page 😊 😊
Good luck with the falafel - I’ve never tried making that - maybe next year!! Yes the raspberries are doing well & I expect a second big flush in autumn. Lots of jam for my stall! Good to hear from you!! (Did you see my video last month??)
@@huttonsvalleypermaculturethe spring veg garden, yes i did 😀 i haven't had much capacity for comments lately, but have the bell set for all yours ❤ Felafel seemed like a good idea, i eat enough of them and are not keen on the dry ones so thought i should make them before i criticise others 😂
@deborahlee8135 let me know how you go with the falafels!!
Thanks Linda. It's great to see the cycle from beginning to end and I loved the way you built that support for them.
Pleased you enjoyed it & thanks for watching 😊
Nice harvest, might need to give that idea a go. Incase you don't pop up in my newsfeed, merry Christmas and a happy new year.🎀🎄🎀🎊🍾🥂
Thanks Christa - may get another one out by then but if not, seasons greetings to you too ☺️
Great to see your video again. Hope the house and health are making progress. I didn't realize you can double pod them.
Not everyone double pods but I like them that way!! Getting there with house & health 😊
Good onya Linda
Hey Bernie how are ya??
@@huttonsvalleypermaculture Im doing well mate. Im Still able to do some chores at the farm . Lots of rain lately, greener than Ireland up here at the moment
@Bernie5172 green is better than a dry brown that goes up in flames!! Good to hear you’re up for a chore or two 😊
How lovely to see you again Linda, and especially with those beautiful beans! They have done well this year! Just to reassure people not familiar with broad beans. It's not essential to double pod them. Some people, me included, love to eat big robust beans where every one is a mouthful! I pressure canned a croo of broad beans in recycled screw top jars. They turned an amazing shade of dark brick red, but tasted just as good.
Hi Ruby - you just single pod them! Maybe I’ll try them like that - don’t think I have before!! Thanks for the suggestion
@huttonsvalleypermaculture They're very filling. I tend to steam a big pot of veggies, all together, and I do have to confess that large broad beans like this stain the potatoes an interesting shade of grey. But that does not deter me. And there's nobody else to complain!
@rubygray7749 mmm grey potatoes- yum!! Haha 😆
@huttonsvalleypermaculture Broad beans are infamous for their colour. They're the main ingredient in Br,own Windsor Soup, which I haven't tried, for some unknown reason!!
