You have the nicest, friendliest, You Tube channel for homesteaders. Never ever change. Best Wishes. Grandpa Jones. 😃
🌸Your videos take me away like a good book. 🌸
Grow lemon balm around your hives. The Greek name for lemon balm is Melissa which means bee. The old bee keepers grew it for the health and happiness of the bees. Rub some on the hives to keep the veroa mites away.
Lemon balm is my favourite tisane anti anxiety and so uplifting
Your videos are like we're living in a more peaceful time. Can't quite describe it ... but almost like the olden days. Absolutely beautiful. Such peace.
Sitting here with all my babies asleep...daydreaming about waking up at your house and sitting in your kitchen enjoying watching, and tasting all of your creations 💛 thank you for the amazing content- and the free daydreams 💤
It would be amazing waking up in her house and enjoying a delicious meal.
Your farm & family continues to become more beautiful.
I wonder what your little daughter answered when asked what she thought about having new bees, after you & she got stung.
Homey bees are usually less likely to sting, especially after they get to watch you a while, & come to trust your presence in their vicinity. You probably already know this, but they were likely just aggitated by being transported & handled so much on the day you bought them. They'll love their new home with wide open spaces, & hopefully, find enough food sources. You have enough room to grow wild plants just for their preferred food sourcess, so you might ask the vendor which wild plants there were around them where they had been living. They will feel more content if they can still find familiar food sources, in addition to the new ones you grow.
They study faces & recognize us as individuals, which seems remarkable, but it's true.
I was once digging a new bed in the yard (where I rented an apartment), to plant spring bulbs.
I kept on finding big, Japanese Beetle grubs. I was lifting them out with my hand trowel, & placing them on the concrete structures around the front steps, into which the wrought iron railings were seated, & would chop the heads off so each one wouldn't wriggle it's way back into the soil.
Within a few minutes, a Yellow Jacket showed up. I bent my face away, since it seemed interested in me, then I noticed it trying to lift a grub, but it was too heavy. I felt as though we began communicating with each other, & suddenly didn't feel threatened.
It had grabbed a head & took off, soon to return. By that time, I'd begun chopping them each into 3 sections, which it could manage to fly off with. It would land & watch me do that, & then would pick up a piece, fly off briefly, & return for another.
This went on for the entire time it took me to dig out the 1.5' wide beds alongside the walkway.
Please read up on no till gardening. It's proven to give a jump start to the plants we start in spring. The complex biology within the soil is destroyed by tilling. It may or may not restore itself, eventually, but why not respect that it will provide a far superior growing medium if we add our amendments on top, seasonally,dig a hole & plant in that, & let the rain, gravity, microorganisms, beetles & worms assimilate the new material naturally. They will not let you down.
Please check out the research of famous UK gardener Charles Douding. He's well published & has many wonderful vids on UA-cam.

Love learning about bees, & seeing them in my gardens. They let me work right next to them, if I take the time to observe & acknowledge them. I've had bees fly up to within a few inches to study my face. I just say hello, then go back to work. They don't ever bother me.
Hope you'll share often what you've learned about yours, & whst you've learned about them dying. Hope you're not near any areas where they use crop dusters to spray for insects.
Oh those Madeline cookies look amazing & whose music is that ? Love that too!
Cheryl Anderson this was a really nice informative comment 🥰
@@doodle6166 TY, Doodles! Bees, building nutritious soil & gardening fascinate me.
Love that little fence/border! If your grapevines are too rigid, you can soak them a bit to make them more pliable. That's what I do when making wreaths. Keep up the good work and thanks for another great video!
I've always wanted a man like this one...someone to garden with. 😔
She's a lucky woman.
Beautiful, as always💛 We don’t have our own bees, but we have someone who brings some of their bees to our place every year. In exchange for using our place, he gives us honey. Sooo yummy!😊
Beautiful! Photography is amazing! That shot of your kids walking down the dirt road should be on the wall :)
We lost our hives over the winter. Didn't rehive this year. Harvey currently has a couple of traps set hoping to catch swarms. We are focusing on finishing projects this year and thinking about what we're going to do next year re bees. They are amazing aren't they? We find ourselves stopping what we're doing many times just to watch them. Your homestead is shaping up beautifully. Thank you so much for the tour. I always find myself not wanting your videos to end. They are so relaxing and enjoyable to watch. Thank you for all of your hard work. We were in Chelan yesterday and I always think about you as we're driving and can see Malaga across the river. You live in such a beautiful area.
I'm in love with your gorgeous story telling the careful way you approach homesteading its not so aggressive as other channels and the flowers just love your space xx
I am severely allergic to bee stings and wasp stings but I could watch beekeepers all day. They fascinate me and, my word, the fresh honey is so delicious. And I stress FRESH. Yum.
you are living my dream.. this is so wonderful to watch
I absolutely love your channel blog and books. My husband and I are starting our homestead in the next year. Bees are on the top of our list!
Your videos always inspire me to take a fresh look at my own garden. Thank you for sharing! 👩🏻🌾💕
The final scene at the lake before the last pan with the kids at the lake reminded me of a Monet painting. Absolutely beautiful! Those madeleines looked yummy!
I watched a vlog by Jeri Landers at Hopalong Hallow make cloches and it inspired me to make tall square ones for my garden.
I have two that I put solar fairy lights in for one deck....so pretty at night casting light onto the white flowers I put in the pot inside of it.
I love your rustic videos. Beautiful homestead, the views around your house are breathtaking. Thank you.
I will open my very first beehive ever to check on my bees tomorrow. I hope all goes well. At my age, 59, I have learned that it you do everything to insure that things go well, it usually will. But there is always the chance that it may not. Your life looks so calm and peaceful.
Wise words!
Your videos are lovely in all aspects.....i also live on a small piece of land that i am gardening and it has blown me away just how much i love doing it....have 3 beautiful children.......many blessings frim colombia, southamerica.......🙏🏻❤️
Beautiful family, beautiful farm, beautiful life. I love to watch your heartwarming videos. Hugs Shay❤️
Hi there this video is just truely truely beautiful I so look forward to seeing these vids this homestead is a piece of heaven. The kids are lovely how do you manage to do all that work and both look so good the scenery walking down that path to the water to die for you live in a beautiful part of the world.bless you all take care.:-) ♥♥
Thats is great ! I usually use my grapevines for wreaths with tons left so over this is a great idea . I have a little shorty ( my dachshund ) who always seems to walk over my garden . This would keep short legs out . 😂
How do you only have 28k subscribers? Every video I always wonder the same thing. Thanks for the videos and the vibe you create for us 🐝 Keep BEEing you!
My husband and I bought our home in a suburb. We havent been here long and we love it, but we both dream of having land like yours. And I've dreamt of keeping bees for several years now, so I loved this! Who knows where the future may take us but I sure dream it's down this same path ❤ Thank you for sharing so much of your life!
How do you harvest all that fruit from the trees all at once?? Do you hire help?? It looks like so much work. Love your videos takes me back home.❤️❤️❤️
Oh my gosh your little duckies are precious!
Wow! The area you live in is absolutely beautiful! I love watching your videos....it's like a peaceful break away from the craziness of my everyday life....thank you for sharing your beautiful life with us!
Gorgeous gardens! There is so much life at your home- something new to discover around every corner. 😊
i love the grapevine border. what a beautiful place you have with all the animals, birds, bees, orchard how lucky you, truly blessed. i purchased your book and have thoroughly enjoyed it.
What a delicious life.
You truly have a working kitchen....I love it 😍
Honey is really good for us. 💖💖💖🌷🌷🌷🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😍😍😍🤗🤗🤗👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼🌷🌷🌷👍👍👍🔔🔔
Wow one of your Best Videos to date loved it
Thanks for posting. I really enjoy seeing what You, Stew and the family are up to. You really have accomplished a lot since last fall
Jo Jo in VT
Personally, I loved the sunglasses!😎
Such a beautiful homestead
Those stairs are beautiful
Beautiful Homestead!
You two inspire me soooo much.thankyou. your children are sweet little Angel's.
Flight of a bee: ziuuuupp 😂😂👍👍
I always get inspired watching your videos. Now I want to buy a madeleine pan and bake something good.
I love rewatching your videos, Shaye! A new nugget always shows up. Today, I’m really digging the curved lip of your kitchenaid bowl. Love how perky the tulips are when planted and how loungy they can be in a vase. Your shade garden is so charming.
I’d love to see what you do with that meadow space! Stu’s specific-non-specific idea sounded great. Like you, I have to sketch things out.
Ohh I just love Madeleines ! The only thing stopping me from making them is the pan .. someday I’ll splurge . 😃
Beautiful people Beautiful land
Beautiful life
Thank you for sharing !!!..
Absolutely beautiful your garden is really an inspiration
Crawling about on gravel - I remember those days.
The flowers are so pretty. I would want to spend all of my time out absorbing the beauty daily.
So inspiring. Brings peace inside me just watching it.❤️❤️❤️ Thank you.
Check out Doug and Stacey episode on bees and horrizontal hive, supposed to give extra protection during winter!
I second that! When my husband and I start a hive, Dr. Leo's natural bee keeping methods with local bees are THE way to go!💗
You live in a beautiful area, how peaceful!
The music, the clarity, there is an essence I can’t describe with your videos that’s just so amazing. Are you a producer/director ? Such beautiful content. 🙏 . Real and raw actually I don’t have the words to describe but thank you so much. Your vids lift me higher every time.
And always something yummy
Your place is maturing beautifully! Style! Swarm season has been in full swing here in Alabama! My brother has captured 7 or 8 so far. We're running 7 hives at our main garden and one at his work. Gotta love the bees!
Your gardens are outstanding! ❤️
Nancy Pats Thank you!
Did you know that when you get stung, if you put a dab of honey on the sting, the pain stops instantly? 💜
My introduction of my first nuc to our bee box was not very graceful but I got it done and am so excited for the honey!
Excellent video.
Lovely
Sending you guys a Heart ❤ for your creative spirit ❤
Love that you guys are keeping bees! I hope to do that when I have my wee homestead! Looks like you are finally having some great weather, too! We'll be up in Joseph, OR this summer - lookin' forward to that!
"Suger for sugar." That means you wanna a sweety?- then I get a kissy! 😘 It's a win/win in my book.😉 The madeleine toast was sweet!💕
New subscriber here. Love love love your vlogs. Takes me away to dreamy beautiful place. Your family is precious. ❤️👌
Welcome! So glad you are enjoying our channel. Thank you!
Another beautiful video! Hope none of the littles are allergic to bees!
Lucky you for having honey bees! I guess the verroa mites are inevitable. I also find bumblebees on the ground carrying more than ten of them, too. Am always delighted to find people who love bees!
Those ducklings look cute! I would love to also have honey bees in my backyard, unfortunately its still too tiny for a hive.
Awesome video
I just became happy seeing all ur bees and ducklings and all the beautiful flowers and other things 😁 💖
Very nice video. I too love this time of the year when everything is coming back to life. Planting the vegetable garden.
One quick question. I noticed the mixing bowl on your mixer. Have never seen one like that. Where did you find it?
That might be a commercial mixer?
I just discovered this channel and I’m in love 🥰.
I love your videos and blog! They give me such homestead dreaaammmss in our city apartment. Maybe one day haha
Is the orchard behind you also yours?
I love this video! Great job👍
Hey! You are living my dream!🙂
I love watching you!
Beautiful beautiful video, as always.
I can only describe your videography as romantic. 🥰
New subscriber I love your home is beautiful ❤️
Welcome! Thank you. So happy to have you join us.
I love the music in the background! I'm dancing over here in Brooklyn!
It’s keep on keeping by viewpoints
Very nice video! Do you own the orchard too? That's even more work to keep up with. The ducks are so cute. We are getting some this year. Do you have any problems with preditors? We have racoon, possum, fox, and hawks. Oh and ground hogs that get in our garden. We have rabbits, but they don't seem to bother the garden. So anything we have has to be supervised or in an electric fenced area. Take care.
Christine McCombs Nope, that’s not ours. Maybe someday 😂
Glad you have bees to enjoy all the flowers you grow. Bees don’t like me. I’ve been watching bee channels lately. Do you grow any crops in your fields? Do you have an apple orchard? Is the pond on your property? Not expecting answers. I just post my thoughts as I view your videos. My wife would use grape vines to make wreaths for the door.
Always enjoy your videos! Inspiring and fun. :)
Love this so much. Every part of it..and oh the music! Can anyone point me to the artists?
Love all the flowers. May I ask what are the flowers that are the blue mounds? So pretty.
Deb Woracek they are forget me nots!
A property as this big during the medieval period would have been managed by a monastery. To make it productive they would have given tenancy to atleast 4 farmer families. This is amazing how times have changed . Single family where two adults are able to manage the produce of earth sustainably. I always support farm produced products. Even things like soap, cloth or ceramics.
Thsnks
Total beauty
Have you checked out Dr Christine Jones (soil biologist), Gabe Brown? Might reconsider the tilling if you do.
Second that, I reckon you guys might like his talks, if nothing else
I love raw honey. Not doing bees though. Giant nope. But I keep trying to find a source.
I thought from the title that you guys were baking honey bees lool
Your life is reminiscent of 60’s farms and communal living.
1:13 "Bee-yond the honey" ;)
Great LifeHappy Marry Christmas.
HI Shae and Stuart! My name is Kerry and I’ve been binge watching your channel. I love your Lacanche range! What made you decide to go with that brand? Had you cooked on this type when you were in Europe?
If that's your full time lifestyle & occupation do you sell produce and animals for income? Just curious as to how that works and you still have to pay taxes on the property.
Love your videos and really enjoyed this one. On a side note, I really enjoyed the music you used in the background for this one. Do you by chance remember what it's called?
Are you working with the bees midday? we usually did it early morning or late afternoon when they are less active, also used a smoker.
Very inspiring! How do you water your potager and veggie gardens?
Shae, are you french?
You have so much of the french style.
She said she’s very inspired by the French styles, they finished their kitchen with things imported from France
How many acres do ya'll have on your farm? So Beautiful!
Put a shungite stone on top of the box.
3:36 Doesn’t honey loose all his enzymes and miracle properties when heated/cooked? 😳
Amazing family and life though 💙
