I keep all my fruit trees pruned at head height, so I don't have this issue of trying to net really tall trees. I still get masses of fruit on a smaller tree and nothing goes to waste

yap yap yap

Will a copper ring of tape on the trunk base stop this process ?

How do you decide how deep to dig swales?

Love your videos ❤

A very good video. One concern however I did have when watching the duck processing, was having grown up on a farm myself and having had our own for the past 20 years, we never left the innards inside the duck for even an hour after the creature was killed. The reason being every creature has a host of bacteria in the gut and when killed, that bacteria goes into overdrive and begins to multiply as the creatures immune system dies with them. It is better to gut the creature immediately and gather the saved offal seperating it, ready for processing. Refrigerate all overnight then joint and sort /package for the freezer next day. The refrigerated resting overnight allows the chemicals in the creature that made them stiff (rigor mortice) to dissipate and the flesh softens and the meat is more tender.

Might i suggest a clever? I put the pumkin on the floor. First swing gets the clever in. Second swing you lift the clever with the pumpkin attached and slam it on the floor to split it. You can lever the clever back and forth on a cutting board to get through the pieces once it's split, or use a rubber mallet on the clever...

Hi, lovely vid as usual, thanks for sharing.

Great to see you back in the garden.😊

Welcome back Linda. You have certainly achieved a lot since your last video. I hope your renovations do the trick. Great to see you turning a negative into a positive, it's a perfect time to include some new designs into your home.

Plenty to share and feed nature. Love it.

I love your garden Linda, thank you for the update. Your patch is very inspiring. It's great how you gently steer nature in the direction you want.

Wonderful to see u back Linda!

Great to see you Linda…🙂

Good day Linda, yóur gardens are beautiful and joyous! You grow a massive amount of plants and flowers, I do a fair amount of both tóo.I also have a 3 season greenhouse witch is so great too. Great to watch your videos and your knowledge of plants.thankyou

Can i visit you this saturday Linda ?

Beautiful 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I had wondered where you'd been; I don't know how I missed your previous video about your mold toxicity issues. Thank you for sharing your health journey with us; it could be information someone else is seeking. In the SE USA we are approaching fall; we had a frost that came a month ahead of the average first frost date and then almost immediately, it turned back into summer. My lettuce seedlings gasped and died. My sugar snap peas don't know what is going on; between the temperature swings and marauding armadillos (grrrr!) I am not sure I am going to get any harvest. It is so lovely to see you again, Linda. I send you healing light.

Great that you are back again and great to see what you are doing in the house. I had been thinking about your condition and wondered how you were getting on. Good to see the garden carrying on with and without you. Lovely self seeding and flowering plants. Take care.

hi linda, Wont be tje first time I moved a tin sheet in the veggi garden to find a black snake under. Greetings from sydney

I was wondering what you have been up to lately. I thought that when you moved the sheet of tin .there would have been a big snake under it

Lovely to see you back Linda!

Everything looks great. I am also dealing with mold/mycotoxin issues so not only can I relate but I'm cheering you on to regain your terrain. All the best wishes Linda from Philadelphia, Pa.

So good to see you back. My garden is so overgrown in places and bindweed is grr. Can you send over some ladybirds for the aphids sigh. Your garden is looking great even though neglected, lots of chicken feed and compost material. With the house once the base wood is sorted can you line the floor with the tinfoil building lining before laying tiles or vinyl? . It may help repel damp in the future. Take care and take it slowly, hopefully you are feeling not too bad. =-)

Sunlight through windows is so important in a home. I love that you'll get a beautiful view of the garden too. Flowering veg is so pretty and useful. Look at all those volunteer plants ❤ You've been super busy I see . I hope you get some relief soon and can rebuild . I've been thinking of you . Take care lovely and thank you so much for the update 🥰❤❤

Hi Linda, it looks like you have done a lot since the last video.. keep on trucking.. thank you again for sharing

Good to see you back Linda Your garden still so giving !!! Beautiful!! Are you doing the renovations yourself?? Big job!!! 😊🌿💚

Hi Linda, looks like you've been flat out and I hope the hard work pays off for you. 💚

🎉😢Hello 👋 Linda , I'm guessing you're Doing Better . Stay strong and healthy. Love.

Nice info thanks. I just got 6 duckling today for my off grid homestead in Thailand 🇹🇭. How do you stop them flying away if you let them out? Thank you I think I need to buy more 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This morning I made the first ever duck liver pate in my life, thank you so much for the recipe idea. I used chicken broth in it instead of alcohol, and no thyme, as I had none. And it is still absolutely delicious. Sealed the top with some ghee. We raise our ducks too, Muscovy, Indian Runner and Black East Indian. They are all amazing breeds. It is interesting to see that ducks are the bosses over other birds, as we raise chickens, turkeys and Guinea fowls too. Definitely ducks are the bosses. And turkeys are the frieliest and most curious in our experience.

Roasting the duck parts a bit under a broiler before going into the stock pot wpuld be a solid improvement. Butchering was solid.

I love how sustainable and mindful your lifestyle is

Thank you very much for making this video. You are a boss! ❤

I believe ‘ no dig’ does put the potatoes under the ground. This seems to be a ‘Ruth Stout’ method of laying the potatoes on the ground and covering them with straw/hay or other matter to cover them. You have a very nice harvest nevertheless!

Thanks so much, this video has been so helpful, just wondering what month you are doing this..

Great info I have 3 baths Hubby is oh no! As they are all cast iron wxcept one was delivered as they were renovating and I asked for it. One has water in it with some water lillies, but I need to clean up around it and in it. I hope it will attrqct one of my favourites dragonflies as they are the ninjas of the predator world I want to do this with another bath in making a worm farm. Notnsure aboutbthe other thought garden but heart if kead posioning from old baths, would need to test it. Can buy kits. Looking foward to making a worm farm. 🪱 ❤

You need a dog to keep you company. A rat terrier would be a good choice.

I’ve really enjoyed gathering different materials with you this morning

Why grow so many potatoes? You said it - because it is fun! 😊 Nothing better than some homegrown potatoes with butter, salt and pepper. It’s lovely of you to share with others in the community in need. 😇

Brilliant video. Thankyou so much for sharing this with us.

I lost so many ducks to coyote this year

Hi there, we also have moisture issues and dampness in our West Gippy property which aggravates our allergies and asthma. I bought a dehumidifier- just a small model-but it is amazing how much moisture/water it sucks out of the building. Maybe one of these or even better a HVAC system could help you minimise some of the excess moisture at your place. Take care, you deserve it!

Very easy to follow how you do this. Thank you.

Why do you put the ducks in the fridge before you got them and not put them in the fridge after you got them?

We have 2 groups of chickens with a turkey as well.

I've given up using it, because not only has it failed to contain my chickens.

you did amazing job for your first try i have been trying to do my own too hope yours are going better than mine have good luck to you

Hi Linda ❤ amazing to think of the things around us that effect our health which we often don't consider, thank you so much for sharing with us. Will keep you in my prayers and hope the journey of renovating your home is not too overwhelmingly as you take each day and project as it comes. I was thinking as you were speaking how our lives like our gardens are filled with so many different seasons. Your video's no matter how often your able to get them out will continue to be a blessing, enjoy the times drinking in the wonderfulness of your property and those absolutely gorgeous daffodils 😍

Sending well-wishes for your recovery & challenging issues wirh the house. Great tour of your beautiful property & progress 😊
