    One of my favorite memories of my childhood was my parents beautiful greenhouse. When we couldn’t find mom and dad outside in their extensive gardens, we would find them in the greenhouse, tending to their plants, making new plants from cuttings, chatting with each other, laughing and doing the hobby they both loved to do together. Today would have been their 72 wedding anniversary. They both passed away a couple of years ago within one month of each other. Thank you for sharing this video on their special day. I’d like to think they’re tending to beautiful gardens in heaven. xx

    I am so enjoying watching this couple tackle so many huge projects needed to start bringing the Chateau de Rosieres back to its former working productivity and glory. The "hot" greenhouse is going to really be something. To see them both working full speed, hands-on, AND having two very small children, what a wonderful young family with big dreams...

    I am fascinated by your land management plans. My friend "rescued" a couple of professional growers greenhouses last year. We found a guy who was getting rid of his pavered driveways (!!!) and we dug up and took the bricks to put inside the greenhouses. Not quite as beautiful a project as yours, but quite the task for a couple of ladies of a "certain age." Plus, we saved the beautiful pavers and the greenhouses from the landfill. Seriously, who would trash them???

    Tomorrow would have been my parents 75th wedding anniversary. Sadly, my Mom passed a year ago. My Dad, 93, is missing her dreadfully, and wants to be where she is. They raised us 9 kids on a farm, and if we didnt grow it, or raise it, we didnt eat. Tho we didnt have greenhouses, we spent many hours in the gardens and orchards. I am thankful for being raised the way I was, and have a farm now (tho still no greenhouse), with huge gardens, orchards, and berry patches, as well as many flower gardens. I'm enjoying following you on this growing and building adventure! Thank you for sharing your lives!! 🥰 This Episode brought to you by Chicken, Daring Chicken 007!! 😂 I love seeing Pepper in the vlogs!!! They say that dogs who have 'two sets of eyes' (the light markings above her eyes), are highly intelligent. Having had a dog like that, I'm inclined to believe it's true!!
