You really inspire me nyathiwa! I went back to doing youtube shorts lol. You should link up with Judith Down the Village one day and do a collabo-that would be a nice watch!
Watching your channel for the first time. I acknowledge the house became so good with modern finishing. May God give you strength and bless you abundantly.
I found your channel a few weeks ago. I'm newly retired to Jamaica 🇯🇲 and going through a similar situation as you. You're inspiring, and I don't feel alone with the struggles of setting up a new way of life. Thank you
Good work Jael! I have similar soil here in Nanyuki. So, to increase chances of your trees surviving, I'd suggest you digger bigger holes. 2x2x2 and Square always. Round holes encourage the roots to continue the circular growth motion of their small seedling bags - rather than finding a corner to penetrate the earth and spread. Also, consider the same wood and grass layering strategy (hügelkultur) for your tree seedling homing. All the Best! Carpè Diem
Adding fruit trees is a good idea, if the soil doesn't drain well is it possible to get soil that drains well and mix with the soil on sight, where you will be Planting. we did that to some trees back at home and they are 15 years now. They were also fruit trees. ❤
The BEST TIME TO PLANT A TREE WAS 20 YEARS AGO. THE SECOND BEST TIME IS NOW. NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR BEING A POWERFUL WOMAN. THE WORLD NEEDS STRONG WOMEN... 💪❤️💯
I admire your gardening skills but why dont you wear protective gloves u knw scorpions hide in the sand and it could save you from getting hand or nail injuries
Thankyou Daisy. I'm working towards having daily uploads. It is not easy but I'll try. In the meantime, set that notification bell on so you don't miss a thing. ❤️
Poor drainage bring roots rots to young trees eventually dying . Have experienced the same & lately came a cross french drainage system (for an even ground underground hoses, pump on container) which am still studying it's effectiveness.
Hello from Canada . I am so confused 🤔 did you renovate your parents family home and build a new home for your self? Did you build the new home in the same compound? Love your vlogs .I am an avid gardener myself and I love flowers 🌹
You deserve a good masseuse after a hard days' work. Good job, Jael. This is better than sitting in front of a computer in an enclosed office full of chatter, phones ringing, ... Chapa kazi, it will pay in the long run!
Looking forward to having a home like yours,you inspire me so much,i check everyday to see if you have a new video
I'm so humbled to be an inspiration to someone. May God bless your plans and grant your heart's desires. ❤️
Dear jael,Am so inspired by what you do at the village level.
Thank you, Faith.
You are a great woman. God will help you achieve more
Amen. Thank you so much
Progress 👏👏👏
I love your energy Jael, you inspire me a lot...go girl and when I grow up I want to be like you.

I am learning quite a lot from you Jael! You are doing awesomely well preparing your homestead!
Thank you,darling. ❤️
You can use a subsoiler or run under ground French drain to collect any ponding and store for irrigation
Amazing. Thank you for this
You are welcome

Awesome. Thanks for the info. I will add loam soil to the ones I already planted.
Yes that will help.
Sooo inspiring
Thank you

Hello from Canada . I am so confused 🤔 did you renovate your parents family home and build a new home for your self? Did you build the new home in the same compound? Love your vlogs .I am an avid gardener myself and I love flowers 🌹
My home (under construction) is not too far from my parents' renovated house. The houses are in the same village. Thank you
Jael out of Curiocity..would it have not been better if you built your home on your parents land? After all its just your brother there.
@misslilly2833 no,I wanted more space. In our culture, it's the boys who build their houses without their parents' compound, not girls.
@@jaelofthevillage Shame! I love your homestaed. Can't wait to see what you do with your own space. By the way I am so inspired by you.
Build some raised beds for the plants to grow in
That's what I did
They work very well too
Jael do you have snakes on your property ? And how do you get rid of them !
I've haven't seen a snake in decades. Snakes hide in long grass/bushes. We keep our lawns trimmed and have snake plants all over the compound.
You deserve a good masseuse after a hard days' work. Good job, Jael. This is better than sitting in front of a computer in an enclosed office full of chatter, phones ringing, ... Chapa kazi, it will pay in the long run!
True. That 8-5 isn't my calling. We have a village masseuse, I will call her over for a deep tissue massage. ❤️
Good job❤
Thanks darling 😘
Hi dear , i love your vlog
Thanks Bebby
Great👏👏
Thankyou
Good job
Thankyou
Can you use fresh chicken droppings or it has to dry for sometime? N if so, hw long plz?
Dry is the best. The fluids in the raw droppings tend to kill vegetables
You go gal.. im so inspired today. How big is the land?
Thanks darling. It's 1 acre only.
Avocado? Guava I saw you make guava juice the other day please make sure you have a guava tree I know you will have banana
Sure,thank you
Hi agirl, what's the reason of placing grass around the fruits?
Mulching to keep the soil moist. The rains have gone MIA again.
Am new to your channel. Is it that you have two homes in the village?
Not really. I'm currently shooting at my parents' home while mine is under construction nearby.
Aki your so hand working
Thankyou Tabby
Here from LNN Approximately how far is your home from your parents?
5 km. Thank you for checking in
Are those burnt bricks or concrete blocks you used for your building?
Brick
👏🏾
I think a microphone would raise your volume
Sure. I'll invest in one. Thanks ❤️
@@jaelofthevillage great!
