You are really planting trees for the kids to have when they get older, they will remember when daddy planted them ❤
You are so right, Andy and I talk about this often
I read somewhere this quote: "The true measure of an unselfish person is to plant trees whose shade they will never enjoy."
It is a wonder to watch your kids scamper and play barefooted! I remember that was the fun of warm weather arriving, when I was much younger. I love watching your children run through the woods, climbing through the underbrush - letting their imaginations create their fun as they go. Even something as simple as standing on the top of the waterfall and throwing rocks is so great to watch...makes me wonder how many other 'little humans' would be so much better 'bigger humans' if they had spent more time in these activities, and less time glued to computer screens, cell phone screens, and gaming consoles. I am convinced that children raised like yours will be the continued 'backbone' of our existence in the future. You should be proud of the way they are being raised, and proud of the people they will become because of it. Thank You for another wonderful video!
I'll echo that👍.
Happy kids means your doing it right...
Hello from northwest Kansas. Love you videos. Your children are so fun to watch as they run and play and explore. Keep making all the wonderful videos ! Great job!!
Y'all sound like my husband and me...😂him..we can't plant anymore berry bushes or fruit trees. Me..ok..him next year, I think we can squeeze an orchard in here😂😂
I agree with you, these children are the future of our Country. A heart, common sense and a backbone. 😊
Enjoy these years y'all! I know raising kids, working till you think you can't do anymore but you do, and wondering where the night went because you're still tired when you get up is exhausting sometimes. But I was blessed to know I was living the best years of my life in those days. And I can tell that y'all know that too. I wish there were a lot more families like you than their are. God bless your family!🙏
I could sit for hours and watch your videos. I enjoy them so much.
I love the fact that you included your children in everything that you do
I'm 64 my granny use to tell me that where ever you see daffodils in the woods like that it was a sign of an old homestead had been there many years ago.becouse they aren't a wild flower they are a bulb and had to be planted to get a start.
I think it's so cool! I think back to someone many years ago going along that creek planting the daffodils and we are still able to enjoy them today
About all y’all need is a few honey bee stands to help pollinate, and God’s blessings of course, for all this goodness that you’re planting!
My husband and I love watching your videos ! We are both in our 70's but you are never too old to learn ! Keep up the good work ! Great idea for the pork.
Many people need to learn the true value of woodchips and mulched leaves to their soil. I grow sweet potatoes in leaf mulch dug into the garden every year, and grow a great crop.
I’m glad we’re not the only ones with jackets on while our kids are out in short sleeve shirts
haha they dont get cold
Love watching your videos and how you do them as a family together. Those kids will have more memories to tell than you could imagine. God Bless your family and have a wonderful year gardening ❤
Your farm land looks so much like ours. I do like the elevated raised garden beds. Most of all I enjoyed the walk in the woods, to me that is so peaceful. When I was able to do so, that was something I enjoyed so much, exploring the the woods around me. Your children will relish the memories made as they get older.
Little Maggie looks like shes having a blast on her bike. Thats what a childhood should look like.
Y'all always deliver great info. Love how the strawberries will, hopefully, cover the entire hillside someday soon!
Hey y’all enjoy watching your videos gardening,cooking and family ❤
What a great video thanks for talking us along the creek and woods they are beautiful.
Best time to plant a tree .. 10 years ago... next best ... today 😃 something like that
Just started 2 weeks ago watching your channel,and I truly love it.yall are a hard working family. I was raised on eighty acre farm and loved it.
I sure did I love watching your videos and I hope you have a great night
I love Nehi! Strawberry 🍓 was my fav! Oh my, the carbonation back then! 😊
Man, throwing rocks into lower little river was my favorite thing to do as a boy. I’m glad not much has changed.
So many ppl have moved around us in last twenty. Four years
Same here - dont like it - refugee city folks that dont have clue and run wild - only thing they grow is lawns for mowin
It's always good to have a Crab Apple tree or 2 for pollination down in your Apple orchard 😊
Yeah, bees work best but a lot of people use yard and garden chemicals these days and takes a toll on the bees
♥️✝️🇺🇸 Thanks for sharing your day with this old lady from North east Texas, I truly love nature walks ♥️
Thanks for taking us along! Everything is lookin good, and so did that canned pork, that stuff is awesome. God Bless. Rebekah
That is beautiful. All the daffodils, waterfall and the kids playing around....
My papaw always said if you have room to plant flowers you can plant vegetables. Or fruit trees.I guess he was right but I love pretty flowers.💓💓💐
I'm of the same mind - yer eyes can eat pretty but yer stomach wont agree
It seems like you do more and enjoy more than most people. It is relaxing to watch what you do in your day. Thank you for taking us along.
thank you
I watched you build that area and it is so fabulous to see its use.
Just came across your channel and had to check it out... yep... had to subscribe! Blessings on your day Kiddos!🌻🐛Carolyn in Ohio 🌿
This video was interesting and full of information. I'm wondering how you built your raised beds. I am slowly going back to watch all your history. May I tell you how beautiful your homestead is. The woods, hills, valleys. Every which way I look. I can see the work you folks have done, shaping it with your own hands. You really live and work your land. A real home.😊❤ Going to watch an older video of yours and learn some more! Thanks
thank you, honestly i dont think we have a video on building our beds, but they're made from white oak I sawed on my sawmill
Your little Maggie May (Rod Stewart) is such a willing farm girl. So cute.
Megan and your beautiful family, Love your videos and your way of life. Thank you all for sharing. Well worth my time to watch and I look forward to new posts.
Just subscribed! I am a neighbor kind of. I live in King, about 20 miles from ya'll! Love seeing ya'll keeping the old ways going! My husband and I are 58 and 65 and are both disabled. Watching these videos bring back sweet memories of my Papaw's farm! God bless!❤😊
Everyday I check to see if ur on. Love to hear the little one humming. She s so sweet. Love watching the kids grow up.
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your time, you are a breath of fresh air in a messed up world.
I literally come here everyday! I'm like...let's go over to Megan and Andy's and see what's going on. I had no idea what mulch is actually for...NO IDEA! You guys know so much about so many things. Truly inspirational. My family on both sides were farmers in Louisiana but the younger generation didn't pick up on any of the knowledge. Glad your kids will have the know how.
thank you
Love the video. The kiddos are awesome, exploring having fun being kids! Thanks for sharing. Stay safe, and God bless
Good morning everyone, great video!! Enjoying everything you all share!! Many great blessings to you all!!!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE DAFFODILS!!!!!! I'D LOVE SOME TO PLANT IN OUR YARD!!!!!
Your place is really lookin good!
Love watching your vlog and I believe I learn something every time! Thank you and blessings to your family ♥️
Another day binge watching :)
Beautiful
Omg so beautiful the sounds of the creek.
That’s the same cabbage I plant, love it. Nice and big. I’m in Michigan
Great Job guys and all of your Work IS paying off!!!
Enjoyed your butter churning sing this morning.. 🌺 greetings from Florida!
Man, that Red Clay, Imagine a person could make a outdoor oven and fire some homemade pottery 🙂
What a beautiful place y’all have!
Thank you Meghan and Andy, loved the video.
Hey guys have a wonderful and blessed day
I just love your alls podcast!!! I'll check out the video when you all were looking around the old house behind your property. As the old saying goes, "if walls could talk" then there'd be some big tales about the old homeplace! I love stuff like that. The hike up the mountain sure was pretty. And what a surprise seeing all the daffodils growing up through the mountain! Have a good weekend!👋
Ya'll are a hard working bunch of folks I will say that. Really enjoy your videos.
thank you
Purslane makes great edible ground cover. You probably have it growing but know it as a weed. It is very good tasting, extremely nutritious and quite filling. I just use it raw but you can cook with it. Look it up on line to see some pics. You can buy seeds but probably don't need to.
We have sandy soil here in South Alabama. We are building more raised beds and filling them with mulch. We watch all of y’all’s and have learned different ways of doing things. We love the waterfall and creek video. Thanks for all you do.
All those forest floor leaves are free gold
Good morning, your video was so refreshing. Out planting, then a nice with the whole family goes for a walk in the woods and down near the creek bed appreciating what God has plantled along with the beautiful sky to look st and enjoy. Lucky you. We woke up to snow. Which we will have all day. Its going to be in the 30s for 2 more days
After that the 40s & 50s are coming. Then maybe i can get out and plant something. Anyway, y'all have a great day. Enjoy everything the Lord has blessed you with. God bless you, Andy and kids. Love y'all. From Michigan.
Enjoyed your video. I spent many hours on a creek behind my grandparents house. Wonderful memories! ❤❤
I always enjoy your videos, the kids sure are growing.
Great job on the videos and love the old homestead that a beautiful place!!! God has really blessed y’all’s family!! Hope y’all have a great weekend 😀😀😀
❤❤ love yall .. GOD BLESS YOU FROM MRS GRANNY INGRID ANNA 👵✝️ FROM PA. farmers and Appalican,miner's daughter 👩🌾
Thank you so so much!
Next time the brassica, radish and turnip bolt, try stir frying the tops with the unopened blossoms like broccoli. (you can cook the blooms too).
I've got the fever too. Fingers crossed its a true early spring. 👍
Most people I watch on UA-cam who have clay SAYS MULCH,MULCH, and MULCH! Mulch is good for other types of soil as well.Im glad I have ChipDrop in my area.
❤❤We have Snow here in Iowa...
Love all the berries and fruit trees you're planting! We're trying to do the same. Nothing like homegrown.
There is still a good chance of frost until April , so hope your strawberries will be ok. It’s still not spring yet, just because it so warm. Wish you luck.
Tiger definitely looks like a cur. Such a cool girl! I love the NC hills. Anything farther out than Charlotte and Asheville proper im good with. 😂 I aint the biggest people fan.
thanks for the vids, awesome
I love everything that you all do I got what I thought was going to be two very special nectarine trees and did not want to lose them so when I planted them I put a piece of PVC pipe down in the ground beside them poking right up straight in the air. That way whenever the drought comes I just run out and pour water down the pipe and it gets all the way down to the roots instead of just running off on the ground not trying to be bossy , just my tip. It did work work to save my trees only to discover 2 years later that I did not have nectarine trees I had peach trees which always die here after 2 years hope you guys have better luck
Thats a great idea, thanks for sharing!
We have dirt like that in Texas!
Great job with the garden planting and more trees for your orchard. Hope the cold doesn't get to freezing or even close. Supper looked good too. You all keep sharing , we sure enjoy your video especially the part of working with the red clay ground. Fred.
We haven't started planting here in Tennessee yet.
Hello hope yall are all doing well have a blessed day
I'll be waiting with y'all lots of fruit
I just stayed watching your channel a few weeks ago and I have enjoyed it so much. I live in Alabama. Yall have a nice wekend.
Thank you!
Applehead plums the size of a teacup
Thank you guys for the time it must take to produce these videos/tidbits of your efforts! Yep; the red clay is a challenge but I did the same as you years ago. You really can "make dirt" out of it.
Good morning y’all. Here in the Adirondacks we are finally getting Winter past week and now they are calling for snow. Y’all’s video made my morning. Can wait to get out in April and May to start our planting. We started plants in the house from seed but I started too early cause I got anxious 😂. God bless y’all and God bless you land and home. Here’s to an amazing fruitful growing season 💜
I really enjoy watching your videos. You have beautiful property. Have a Blessed Day 😊
Love the creek and daffodils!
Put some compost in those holes Andy. I have 3 citrus, 4 plum, 1 peach, 3 apple, about 20 strawberry plants and I can tell you apple trees don't do very well this far southeast. My Anna apple is 3 yrs old and already has bad fungal problems. It was created in Israel for low chill areas but our humidity wasn't taken into account.
Your grass is so green!
Good luck with your blueberries and strawberries
Canned pork is my favorite because it’s so versatile. I’ve been enjoying it with my home canned salsa verde, it makes an easy, delicious soup. I also love canned pork mixed in rice and vegetables for a quick stir fry.
My favorite jelly is plum. Yummy
Maybe this time next a 100,000 subscriber's
Loved the video today, especially the exploring in the woods. Love doing that on my farm. Your flowering trees will be beautiful in a few years. Your hard work will pay off. You’all have a beautiful place, very homey. 😊❤️🤗
Now you need an apricot tree. Yum yum
I don't know that I've ever eaten an apricot, may have to look into it!
Next time your Collards bloom, cut them and a little bit of the stem and steam them like broccoli. I like to put a little lemon on them they taste a lot like broccoli. just one more way to get a little extra out of your crops.
Another great video. I'm so glad I found this channel. You even have my clay dirt.
That red clay looks like fertile soil compared to what we have. To plant trees here I have to use a digging bar or pick to get through the rocks. The pork tacos look amazing. We really like using our rabbit meat in tacos. Have a great weekend
The yarrow makes a really good pain balm for joint pains. All you need is yarrow, oil and beeswax to make it. I don't buy pain creams anymore.
You've given me Spring fever. Had the mower running last week but today woke to 5" of snow and still snowing.
Have you planted a Apricot tree? Had one years ago and they are so delish and dehydrate well. Best wishes from lower Wisconsin, D
I don't know that I've ever eaten an apricot, I'm definitely going to look into it!
Being from the red clay regions of AL and MS, I agree you can grow about anything...I would suggest for the fruit trees to dig a considerably bigger and deeper area and fill with good soul/compost to give the trees an advantage until they can get established, as the clay us hard to root into! Good luck and God bless! Love yall!❤❤
that's a good idea, I've done it both ways though and honestly cant tell a difference in the performance of the tree
My dad always kept a hose on new trees, any kind. It would be a couple seasons of babying and making sure they were good. But, he didn't have as much to plant and take care of as you two do. 🙂❤
we used to baby some plants, but lately we find ourselves letting them fend for themselves more and more
You guys are a real inspiration
The family time in the woods is awesome
You have a beautiful place. Great place for your kids to grow up too.
thank you
I would love to have some dry land fish also know as morels.💐💐💐
Your flowering trees are beautiful, and I really enjoyed the walk in the woods, y'all will be eating strawberries in no time.
