My husband and I were discussing this at the dinner table last night. He's 80 and I'm pushing 76. We were discussing the fact that when we were young kids and adults, we didn't know anyone who had food allergies. Now it's an epidemic. It's what they're putting in our food supply. Our fear isn't so much for us anymore but rather for our grandchildren and their children. What kind of world will they be living in? Many people are totally unaware of what's going on. Thanks for the warning. It makes one stop and think.
I just told my SIL last night that that I never knew people or animals with Cancer when I was a kid (except 1 older lady). Then it suddenly exploded around the time when internet surfaced and big pHARMA started pushing more & more V's and shots. Why is that?
I learned of grazing earlier this year. And I thought glyphosate tolerant seeds/food crops were the problem. Now there's grazon! Wow! I wonder if that's why I'm anaphylaxis allergic to hay. How and why they say these crops are safe is beyond me!! I pray you can recover as painless as possible.
Hey...I'm from Alabama also. I accidentally came across your channel. The only thing I can say is. Stand up put your shoulders back, take a deep breath, and take a step forward. God will give you the strength and answers.
@MRSASUSTAO not really there are lots of herbal antibiotics and herbs that heal infections. Chemical antibiotics have been so iver used they are just about useless anyway nowadays.
It breaks my heart every day of how mankind has poisoned the earth, and the generations to come won't be able to grow up not having to worry about these things.😢
Last year I bought several bags of a nationally known potting soil from my nearby big box building supply for the containers that I have to garden in due to living in a condo with a very tiny spot of sun out front to grow veggies. Every plant I bought and planted shriveled like yours, and all my green beans died. Then I watched Jess’ video about her contamination disaster and recognized it immediately. So disappointed, and angry. At 73 I have little strength or energy, and no one to help dump out all that poisoned dirt. Empty planters of dirt all year welcomed all my guests. I don’t have many seasons left to plant recovery crops so I have quit gardening. Thanks, big ag industry. Best of luck to you, sweet lady.
Hi friend, I love gardening too. To rebuild your strength try Qigong it’s easy and will rebuild body and strength. It’s god given-The truth shall set you free. I learned from books and UA-cam. I started when I was 50 and today at 71 I’m strong and stronger than most 20 year olds.
My heart breaks for you. This is happening to so many gardeners. This should be illegal. Wish there could be a class action lawsuit. So very sorry. I feel your pain. 💔
Wish you were closer. My neighbor cuts hay on a 4 acre field on my property and lots of his own fields. He doesn't spray anything on them and charges less than he should. Local farmers love him.
I don’t see how this could be successful in any level. You have to prove the companies knew there was a risk. And it is very multi layered from the hay to the cow to the manure to the soil.
@@lilolmecj then we better find out what science is behind the ban in Oregon- and MAKE companies and public aware ASAP so this would no longer be a valid legal stance.
@@elleevans5730 I agree that the results of Grazon are more broadly damaging than us normies would have anticipated. In a fair and decent world it would be pulled two years ago. And after fifty years of disasters with herbicides and pesticides it is infuriating all the way around. I am not against people being held accountable I just think it will be very hard.
I'm glad your squash, watermelon and beans will be alright! It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who let's my garden rest on Sabbath years. Remember Joel 2:25! The Lord can restore your lost time!
@@lilolmecjShouldn't be hard to prove that manufacturer of Grazon knew the potention harm of its product and did nothing to make it possible for consumers to identify its residue and avoid damaging their crops.
GARDENERS UNITE!!! PLEASE SEND THIS VIDEO WITH LETTER TO YOU STATE AND FEDERAL REPRESENTATIVES! WE THE PEOPLE NEED TO STAND UP, EDUCATE AND MAKE OUR REPRESENTATIVES LISTEN TO THIS HORROR!!! I watched a video from Marie at Homestead Heart. She ruin her beds with unripe Black Cow manure and compost that was NOT ready to be sold! THANK YOU FOR SHARING AND I AM TRULY SORRY FOR YOU LOSS! Blessings!
What makes you think your Representatives give a shit about anything but big corporate money? it is a waste of time, people need to understand that and start acting on it. doing for ourselves and stop asking permission to do what is necessary.
as in home/apartment costs here in Kalispell, MT...GREED rules!!!! As illegals are sipped up here, given living places, money, health care. Meanwhile the vets and homeless suffer!!! God's judgement!!!!
Years ago, while our group was studying the book of Revelations, I found myself saying over and over again, “America will have to fall for this to happen.” It was prophetic and from God. I know that now, because of the times. He’s returning soon, may we persevere.
Constance, I had this same issue a few years ago. The amazing thing about it was the Lord gave me a dream warning me that my garden would be poisoned. The next day after the man delivered the compost for my raised beds he jokingly informed me that he just got off the phone with a customer who accused him of having contaminated soil and he went on to rant that it wasn't his soil but she was crazy. I knew immediately why God had given me the dream. It was the soil. It happened around the same time Jess from Roots and Refuge dealt with her high tunnel.. Long story short I wasn't able to grow nightshade for about 2 years. But I heavily planted Sunflowers in those beds and now they are thriving. There is something about the Sunflowers that help pull that poison out. 🌻 I pray your garden heals and thrives in the coming years ❤
I’m not familiar with this type of poisoning. What is it? Does it have an odor to it? I’m asking bcos I just emptied bags of top soil bought @ local Walmart. When I opened the Scott’s brand top soil it smelled odd. I finally told hubby It smells like kerosene to me!!! We had to get 10 more bags to be enough. We went to our TSC store and bought last 10 bags to complete my project. This was the exact same brand top soil but it DID NOT have an odor. Should I be concerned about the bags I first used????
This happened to me a few years ago. I feel sick for you. It was only my vegetables in pots that got the grayzon manure, but that was enough. It wasn't until I saw Deep South Homestead talking about it that I understood what happened. Your video will help someone else not make the same mistake. You will recover. Our food, and water, supply is fully under attack.
@Cosmopolitan Cornbread, I am just trying to think of a possible temporary solution. Is there a local community co-op where you can rent a plot of land, or perhaps a neighbor will let you garden on their land temporarily? This is heartbreaking and infuriating.
😢 if anyone can recall the old scifi movies made in the 50s and 60s, Soylent Green is the scariest i easily recall but there were so many. This is a long term project they're working. I remember a scene where a uber wealthy lady was eating " real strawberry jam".
Add activated carbon or biochar: Apply activated carbon or biochar to the affected area. Biochar is black carbon made from biomass sources like wood chips, plant residues, manure, or other agricultural waste products. One study says biochar can remove 68% of herbicides. However, adding biochar can raise the soil's pH level. Consider adding elemental sulfur to lower the pH back to your desired level.
We have property on top of a mountain. There’s an old man up there that digs out the big rocks, fills the holes with potting soil and plants in those. Maybe you can do the same there this year. He said the ground acts like a terracotta pot.
I’ve seen at least three other UA-cam channels that dealt with the Grazon poisoning. One of them said it took 3-5 years for the garden to recover. It definitely makes we question where hay is sourced from. Or if you get manure from somewhere you need to ask about the hay their livestock was sourced from. We need to make everyone aware
@@bcarol2484 can you provide the report that proves Black Kow contains Grazon? I have been using it for years and have never had a problem. I used the product EZ Straw several years ago as mulch and unbeknownst to me it contained Grazon. It made my plants look just like her plants. I took samples to the University of Georgia and had that straw tested. The test came back positive for Grazon(herbicide). When I contacted the manufacturer about it, they denied that they contain Grazon. I told them that I had testing them at the University of Georgia and what the test results were. I bought that straw from tractor supply and now when I go to look at the package, it clearly states on the package not to use in home gardens. But when I bought it, it was labeled organic safe. so they knew what it was doing to peoples gardens and hurried and changed it. I guess I’ll have to take a sample of cow and have it tested too..
Had an issue with the Kellogg products and steer manure from the big box stores. Straw used in the chicken bedding also had it when I composted it, switched to wood chips, found that worm compost and mushroom compost works
I'm so very very sorry! I completely agree with you about how EVERYTHING is corrupt. We can't even buy a tomato and grow the seeds from them anymore. All our food is contaminated and it's making us sick too.
@@CosmopolitanCornbread , Homestead Heart just lost a lot of crops from using bagged Black Kow manure. There is a recent video on their channel showing the devastation. I am so sorry this happened. It is infuriating.
Constance - my heart breaks 💔. You were so looking forward to this. But ya know Satan uses man. Man is a tool. Haha. That isn't what I meant. Man is a puppet. Laughter doeth good like a medicine tho! I think it's a spiritual attack. The bible give aways. So be the warrior I know you are and I'll be praying. 🙏🏻😂⚔️📜🛡️. Rom.8:28
Be careful with the bagged manure, as well. Another homesteading channel used a leading brand, and the contents were not truly composted. They found that the newest bags they had obtained had an overwhelming smell of ammonia. Killed all plants that had been used with the new stuff.
It is exceedingly obvious the order went out to major manufacturers to 'sour the milk' so to speak on these products in an effort to ☠️. Like they said "you vill eat zee bugz". 😡😡😡😡😡
I came here to post the same comment about Homestead Heart. It was Black Kow manure. In their case, I think they should contact the company. I feel so badly for farmers who work so hard on their farms, to have things like this happen.
So so sorry! This happened to me a few years ago, in my case it was the soil. The supplier came out and was mortified. We had purchased soil from him at least four times before over two decades. He was just as upset. He gets product from many farmers to compost into top soil. We suspected grazon or round up type contamination in someone’s manure as well. He lost the sale, was super concerned for other customers and his business, he felt so bad and we had to cleanup and out, scrape down and start all over again. Fortunately in California we have a long season and I was able to start again in early July and the difference in the plants was night and day, but very expensive! We went with organic soil and crossed our fingers because this stuff is everywhere and some people say round up is technically organic!!! Our county ag voted to become gmo free but the bigger farmers said no. So we are stuck with a ticking time bomb here. I know this is not our heaven here, but the agenda in so many facets of our lives feels like pure evil! Again, I’m so so sorry this happened to you. I know what you are feeling. I pray our Father gives you peace and wisdom in this.
This has happened to a few homesteads over the last couple years. The most recent to you this year that I know of was Homestead Heart. This is so heart breaking!
The same thing happened to Roots and Refuge farm. Grazon seems to effect nightshades worse. Ine suggestion was to plant sunflowers to remove it. Beans are unaffected but I'd be afraid to eat them. So many people have no idea what they are putting in their bodies. So sorry this happened to you
I thought that bean seeds were the first thing affected. You could test new soil or compost by planting bean seeds and they will sprout and quickly die. Anyone else know for sure??
The bean didn’t grow good they died. She said to test the soil . To plant a few seeds of beans if they grow your fine .if they died after a few weeks growing then it tainted .
So very sorry Constance what a disappointment. I will pray for you that the task will be lightened for you. I know your Garden is so important to you. And I love the videos. I hurt for you either way all my heart. 🙏
I’m sorry this happened to you and your garden! At 72, I’m daily searching for what food is still healthy to eat and what is already unhealthy due to chemicals and additives in the food-even fresh fruits and vegetables. Nothing has been spared! Prayers you can salvage somehow your beds and still plant some this summer. God bless you! You certainly are a blessing to us.
I instinctively stopped using layer feed long before the "feed" went bad. I started not trusting anything from any store way before anyone else was doing videos on it. It time we all put our foot down together and put a stop to poisons.
I believe that too. My husband and I made hoop houses for the boxes we were using and tried to remember to cover them every night...kind of like" putting the boxes to bed."
This makes me so angry! It's not fair. Why do they get to poison us (grazon sprayed hay, crop dusting with dust floating to neighboring gardens, crazy weird additives in "food", etc.) With no accountability? I cant grow an organic garden because of the fields i live near (crop dusting). I try to live vicariously through good UA-cam garden channels and i keep hearing these horror stories. I am so sorry this happened to you.
If you purchase compost you can check for contamination with bean seeds. They grow twisted if the Garzon is present, as you now know. Test in the bag before you spread.
What the enemy means for harm, YAH will use for good! You are a faithful servant HE will heal your land! Keep pressing forward Constance. This is a light momentary affliction that will, in the end, bring forth an abundance of fruit!! Love and prayers from Alabama! SHALOM! ♥♥♥
So sorry that this has happened to you it’s so upsetting. We lost all our first batch of tomatoes to this chemical on Some farmyard manure a few years ago. Charles Dowding also lost a bed of beans. He suggested always testing any soil or mulches with sacrificial plants before using it…..we shouldn’t have to do this!! It’s criminal. Sending a big hug from the UK xxx
I had to go read about Grazon. Yes. This is a curse. I’m devastated just realizing what you are experiencing. There are no words to express my pain for you. I am praying that you are able to recover your loss and heal your land. I’m so sorry. God bless you.
Wow! I literally feel your heartache! That sucks! I have a few raised beds and understand how you feel about what and why you plant. 🌱 Our food supply is so horrible! Our bodies were never made to ingest all the chemicals in our food. Try not to be so hard on yourself. Not all our loses are in vain. You still have a few beds to plant in and you have learned a valuable lesson that you have shared with all of us. I pray that God will abundantly bless the plants you have left and are able to plant. His will completely restore what you have lost. God bless!!!
I'm so sorry that this happened to you. It feels like we're fighting an uphill battle CONSTANTLY everyday, especially when it comes to our food. Many are clueless. This truly is a spiritual battle, down to every small detail of our lives. The agregious over reach of the government on so many levels. I'm sure you already know but Jess from Roots and Refuge experienced something similar a couple years back when they moved to their new property. She did some videos on what they did to fix it. Praying for you and your family. Romans 8:28, stay strong! Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤
Constance, my heart truly bleeds for you, and all that have been affected by this tragedy. The most tragic thing here, is that the government is not caring enough for the people of this country to take care of them.
TEST for Grazon: Pack a bucket with the straw/hay in question and fill with water. Let soak for three days. Remove the straw and pour it on to sacrificial veggies planted into disposable container. Use broadleaf veggies. You will need to do this early in the season or the year prior to planting.
That just breaks my heart for you! I understand the feeling of joy that growing your own vegetables gives and to have this happen is devastating. I am so sorry! 😢
I know your pain first hand. Over two years ago we went through this. Finally got it under controlled. We have goats and composted everything when we would clean out the barns. We had narrowed it down to which hay we purchased was the cause. We only buy alfalfa hay and buy locally from a person that bales it right across the street from us so we know what is put on it. The farmer does not spray his fields. The other person we buy Alfalfa hay from practices organically due to growing rotation crops chemical free. I thought when this happened to us that I was terrible at growing a garden but after doing some research I found out the issue. We immediately took action and fixed it but it was a long haul. i will never buy hay from another source without full investigation or I grow ourselves which is not possible at this time but could be in the future.
The chemical warfare on us only going to get worse! I felt the same panic about getting a garden in the ground a few years back, and then The Holy Spirit reminded me of the Scriptures where God says He’s going to feed His people and perform wonders like He did in the wilderness. Stay Faithful, and God always provides a way for His people! I’m a Sabbath and Feast keeper as well, it’s always such a blessing to come across another one of God’s remnant! My daughter says she feels like we’re the only ones, but I always remind her of Elijah! God always has His remnant!! Blessings
@godissoverign5789 Blessings in Christ Jesus. If you don't mind me asking, how would I learn how to observe the feasts and sabbaths? I am on my own in this wilderness and I love the Lord and read in the Bible that the Sabbath is forever. And, since I believe every Word the proceedeth out of the mouth of MarYa Eshu, I would love to know more and then do it for the LORD. With all love and gratefulness in Christ, Mystery. Shalem.
@@MysteryGrey Blessings to you! I let the Holy Spirit lead me, so I do things a little differently than most, but I’m so very happy to share with you! I would just pray about what I say, and ask God to lead you as well! So my family keeps Sabbath on Saturday, sun up to Sunday sun up. This is because in Matthew 28:1 it says the Sabbath was ending as it began to dawn on the first day of the week. So we can see that Sabbath was kept all day Saturday, not Friday to Saturday. We have to remember that Satan has been sent out to deceive the nations, and that there’s a big misunderstanding of Scripture. Jesus was not a Jew, if you look into the word you’ll find that it didn’t even exist at the time of Jesus. Furthermore, Judea isn’t the same thing as Judah, and in fact was the name of a Babylonian province. The term Judea has nothing at all to do with The Law. So just bare that in mind while you seek these things out, and I implore you to look into these things. As for the Feast, I keep them according to the dates in The Bible, with the understanding that the first month is April. So I keep Passover on the 14th(from evening to evening on the 15th) Unleavened bread starts on the 15th, 50 days from the first Sabbath during Unleavened bread I keep Pentecost, and Tabernacle starts Oct 15. I also observe Feast of Trumpets on October 1st, and Day of Atonement on October 10th. I keep The Feast of Dedication starting December 25th(according to the book of Maccabees). I do not light a menorah, as I do not find that in Scripture, and it’s associated with some things that I do not agree with. I also keep New Moon on the FULL moon, according to what ancient Israelites observed. I have searched these things out, and this is where The Holy Spirit led me. I hope I said something to help you, and I pray Abba leads you into a good understanding of these things, and keeps you on His narrow path! Many blessings! The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee; Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion; Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah. Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel. We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the Lord fulfil all thy petitions. Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand. Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God. They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright. Save, Lord: let the king hear us when we call.
I had a years worth of rotted down horse manure from my own horses, fed homegrown organic hay… stables bedded down on supposedly ‘aminopyralid clean’ OSR straw. Luckily I always test by growing few broad beans before using on my garden. Seeds popped up & 💥 showed signs of chemical poisoning. I was furious with the company but so glad I didn’t take their word. Now any bought in compost gets tested before I put onto the garden. You must be gutted, but you will overcome this. Good luck with your garden.
I've been on the phone this week with one of those companies PNW own ORGANIC( Swanson) bought by some multinational. Told them all my compost bought from them was contaminated for any direct seeding. I had purchased just straight Swanson soil and compost products in 2020 cause they make it local. Big mistake. Swore never to purchase this brand again. But recently I found the PNW own organic and bought a lot. Didn't read the fine print of the parent company. Same damn one as before but now relabeled as organic. 🤬. And other miracle composts were trashy too. I'm so frustrated. You can't trust them. This company tests once a year AFTER temps get above 60s. Yeah. That helps us that prepare gardens before spring. Not!
Oh Constance! I’m so sorry to hear about this. Yes, the “tweeking” is everywhere, the air, the dirt, our food. I’m with you and yet I know (even in all the mess they’re doing) Whom is caring for us sister. We do the very best we can. Thank you for being real- it’s much needed these days. 🙏🏻
I am so sorry you are experiencing this. 😢😢 This HAS to be by design to stop everyone who can grow their own food from doing so. Reject all items in stores and lets learn how to make our own products again so we do not have to get sick. 🙏🙏🙏
I am so very sorry. I can feel your pain. These little plants are our babies :) no words can express enough our love in watching them grow and thrive. We try to take as much care of ourselves as we can, and others try to keep us dependent.
Im so sorry this happened. You are absolutely right, when man takes things into his own hand, he often ruins the beautiful design of Our Creator. On a positive note, you'll have some beans and squash. Give yourself some grace and thank you for sharing your experience. This may help others prevent the same issue. ❤
I just KNEW this was what this video was going to be about, when I saw the title. I put hay on my ONE garden bed, and deep dark mushroom compost....I was so excited....and first year was great, never amended it again, but 2nd year mid range (not great) foliage, and 3rd year, NOTHING grew beyond 6 inches, no flowers, hardly any leaves, certainly no fruit/produce. I was convinced I was just a BROWN thumb! And then I tested the soil.... it's DEAD. IM SO SORRY, FOR YOUR LOSS. So many of us are experiencing this SAME situation. This is not an accident. This is an intentional... thing. In fact, probably noone will ever see this, becausr of this...situation going on. I must say, I was so touched by the fact that you planted a garden just for your new homeowners. That was just the sweetest thing. Good bless you and may He bless you abundantly. It's not arrogance... it's their downright love for the adversary. I cannot say anymore, I'm sure I've said too much.
I am so very sorry Constance. Danny at Deep South Homestead, and Jess at Roots and Refuge boith have gone through this recently, and it is heart breaking. Will pray for a way to resolve this in an expedient way.. I enjoy your channel so much,the good and the sad are a learning curve for us all. Takr care and take heart.
I learned the hard way too. I never put any hay or straw into my compost now. I only use clean wood chips, leaves, grass clippings, and other materials that I know for sure is clean. I never use straw for bedding for my birds, only wood chips. I won't even bring straw or hay on my property. I am so sorry that this happened to you. Thank you for making this video. Maybe others will learn about this before its too late. Much Love from Nikiski, Alaska. Subbed!
Had this happen 15 years ago, deep mulching with wheat straw contaminated with 2-4d and dicamba. Traced the straw bales back to the farmer, thanks to the feed store we bought from. "Clean" farming was just taking off here. About 10 years ago it happened again via horse manure we composted, that we got from a friend. The extension office investigated and said it looked like picloram and roundup, both of which pass through the gut still active.
Oh Constance....I can so feel your pain and frustration in this video. Most of us here know the time, money and labor intensive gardening is and to have it ruined by this is so sad, scary and absolutely frustrating. I know its so hard right now but don't give up....keep pressing on. ...JOY WILL COME AGAIN IN YOUR GARDEN!!
I am heartbroken for you, knowing how much you were enjoying getting to build your garden again, this is devastating. Sending you strength to add to yours so you can make this an exceptional year. Keep God in focus and the help will come. 🥰
So very sorry. A section of our farm was poisoned by a neighbor, I know how you feel. That was several years ago. I have slowly begun planting that area again. It makes me a bit nervous and I am avoiding root crops. We lost very mature grapes and a few trees plus chicken eggs, chickens and several other food plants. It would have been too expensive to try to recoup the loss of time and money from him so we just stopped planting there for awhile. Prayers for a workable solution for you. It's great to see another Sabbath homesteader on UA-cam, glad I found your channel. Blessings
Oh no, that’s so sad to hear. sorry that happened to you. How did your neighbor end up poisoning your land if you don’t mind me asking? Really awful that you couldn’t recoup anything
😰 Oh no! I'm so sorry Constance 💔 and I'm spittin' mad along with you !😡 The only thing I can think of for this year's garden is plant in the ground, if you have room or do a container garden with what plants you have left. It may not be too late to get some good soil. Thank you for showing us what grazon poisoning looks like in the plants. 😭
Oh , Honey ! I am so very sorry for your loss ! The only good thing to come out of this , so far , is that you are able to warn us of this hidden danger...cold comfort , I know... The Father knows the intent of your heart and perhaps there is His comfort , from an unexpected source , in the future . Sending love and hugs 💖🫂
I feel so sorry for you and couldn't agree more with your words and frustration on our food. I have so much anger with what they are doing to food and our environment. Good bless you.
Oh no..I am so, so sorry 😞 that is heartbreaking ! But God’s got you and He has a plan..maybe you don’t know how just yet but you’ll have a garden and you’ll have your hands in the dirt and growing food again soon! Sending all the love, encouragement and prayers your way 🫂❤️
Don't give up, I had this happened to me a few years ago depending on how heavy the contamination is my plants looked sick and didn't thrive but they lived and produced some not as much as they should have. I planted sunflower the following 2 seasons and it cleared it up
We lost our first garden just this year- ours died due to poor dirt management. We are still learning and we didn’t plan the nutrients that should be part of the soil.. but it still hurt. So my friend I can’t imagine the hurt you are feeling. I’m so very sorry.
I’m so very sad about what has happened to you! You deserve a good rant! It’s shocking, frightening and makes me angry, too. I lost my garden to Grazon tainted manure 3 years ago. Everything curled up and died. Broke my heart to see everything die. I’m praying for your speedy recovery from this loss and for you to have peace. ❤🙏🏻❤️
This is one of the reasons why a very rich land buyer has been setting once cattle land idle for ten+ years before putting it to use for anything! All the drugs fed to farm animals including cattle which are required by unelected agencies that do NOT report to the citizens have been poisoning the land for many decades! We have to manually pollinate many of our vegetable plants due to no pollinators! Sometimes we have a few alternative pollinators which does help. We are in a very sad situation!
It’s not just the corporations. My bees keep dying out and so many lawns in the community are weed free. Why are herbicides still available to consumers in the stores?
So sorry you had to go through this, after all your work you put into your garden. I've just read of another gardener after planting her food plants found them all dead from the roots to the dirt. She realized it was the black cow manure that hadn't been prepared properly. So she and her husband had to start over. That is so sad.
As I plant my garden , my heart breaks for you . here in Texas, I heard this same story and It breaks my heart to hear your story . Ninette Bird The Caribbean Wife , Tx
I watched the Texas gardener, he did the same thing. It happened to me about 10 years ago, when I had soil delivered. I didn’t really get it until I watched his video. It is very risky to take any soil that is not sold to you as organic in bags. I wouldn’t dare buy anything off a truck again. I passed this information to my next door community. You did good sharing this. A lot of people make the same mistake. It kills your soil. It can’t grow anything. It’s dead. I had to cover the spot with landscape fabric, I can’t use it. It’s the only place in my yard that gets sun. I can only put in raised beds, I only use bagged garden items for use from the garden center.
So sorry for your loss. I understand your problems, I live in Texas where poison reigns high. I fight everyday to produce clean meat and vegetables. We should all stand up to the giant companies and let others know what is doing.
I've seen so many videos on this topic there is no way I'm bringing anything from the outside to my garden. If it takes me longer to build my soil so be it. I'm just thinking when will those responsible for all the loss and grief be made to take responsibility for it
Problems w/food system don’t come down to ineptitude or arrogance; ITS DELIBERATE DESTRUCTION.
Exactly
100%
Never forget that!
"That's a bingo!"
Absolutely

💯 I think the same thing
I just told my SIL last night that that I never knew people or animals with Cancer when I was a kid (except 1 older lady). Then it suddenly exploded around the time when internet surfaced and big pHARMA started pushing more & more V's and shots. Why is that?
Money!
I learned of grazing earlier this year. And I thought glyphosate tolerant seeds/food crops were the problem. Now there's grazon! Wow! I wonder if that's why I'm anaphylaxis allergic to hay. How and why they say these crops are safe is beyond me!! I pray you can recover as painless as possible.
we are in the End Times. Repent, prepare and stand for Jesus!!!!
Hey...I'm from Alabama also. I accidentally came across your channel. The only thing I can say is.
Stand up put your shoulders back, take a deep breath, and take a step forward. God will give you the strength and answers.
We are in NE AL. Agree totally. We even keep Shabbat.
Jess at Roots and refuge dealt with poisoned soil as they built new greenhouse beds. check her out to see what she did to change things up
Even our blood supply is poisoned. I often wonder how we would feel being 100% free from man made chemicals. Longing for the good old times.
We'd be dying at an early age, experiencing lots of pain due to infections.
Indeed. But longing for Heaven too.
tatoos too
@MRSASUSTAO not really there are lots of herbal antibiotics and herbs that heal infections. Chemical antibiotics have been so iver used they are just about useless anyway nowadays.
It breaks my heart every day of how mankind has poisoned the earth, and the generations to come won't be able to grow up not having to worry about these things.😢
Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning 🙏
Best comment! I actually cried. But to the content creator, I found you through this video. May God turn your setbacks into new wells.
Even so, Come, Lord Jesus!!!
This is horrible! I'm so sorry! You are 100% right about our food, air & water being polluted! I'm so angry about it!😡
Last year I bought several bags of a nationally known potting soil from my nearby big box building supply for the containers that I have to garden in due to living in a condo with a very tiny spot of sun out front to grow veggies. Every plant I bought and planted shriveled like yours, and all my green beans died. Then I watched Jess’ video about her contamination disaster and recognized it immediately. So disappointed, and angry. At 73 I have little strength or energy, and no one to help dump out all that poisoned dirt. Empty planters of dirt all year welcomed all my guests. I don’t have many seasons left to plant recovery crops so I have quit gardening. Thanks, big ag industry. Best of luck to you, sweet lady.
Praying a blessing and solution comes for you.
Look in to remediating your soil with mushrooms.
Godspeed
😢 oh wow they push the poisons in all levels these for profits on our doomed ...
Hi friend, I love gardening too. To rebuild your strength try Qigong it’s easy and will rebuild body and strength. It’s god given-The truth shall set you free. I learned from books and UA-cam. I started when I was 50 and today at 71 I’m strong and stronger than most 20 year olds.
My heart breaks for you. This is happening to so many gardeners. This should be illegal. Wish there could be a class action lawsuit. So very sorry. I feel your pain. 💔
activated charcoal will suck it all up. see bio-char
Wish you were closer. My neighbor cuts hay on a 4 acre field on my property and lots of his own fields. He doesn't spray anything on them and charges less than he should. Local farmers love him.
Wonder if there could be a collective lawsuit for spoiled soil from products?
I don’t see how this could be successful in any level. You have to prove the companies knew there was a risk. And it is very multi layered from the hay to the cow to the manure to the soil.
@@lilolmecj then we better find out what science is behind the ban in Oregon- and MAKE companies and public aware ASAP so this would no longer be a valid legal stance.
@@elleevans5730 I agree that the results of Grazon are more broadly damaging than us normies would have anticipated. In a fair and decent world it would be pulled two years ago. And after fifty years of disasters with herbicides and pesticides it is infuriating all the way around. I am not against people being held accountable I just think it will be very hard.
I'm glad your squash, watermelon and beans will be alright!
It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who let's my garden rest on Sabbath years.
Remember Joel 2:25! The Lord can restore your lost time!
@@lilolmecjShouldn't be hard to prove that manufacturer of Grazon knew the potention harm of its product and did nothing to make it possible for consumers to identify its residue and avoid damaging their crops.
GARDENERS UNITE!!! PLEASE SEND THIS VIDEO WITH LETTER TO YOU STATE AND FEDERAL REPRESENTATIVES! WE THE PEOPLE NEED TO STAND UP, EDUCATE AND MAKE OUR REPRESENTATIVES LISTEN TO THIS HORROR!!! I watched a video from Marie at Homestead Heart. She ruin her beds with unripe Black Cow manure and compost that was NOT ready to be sold! THANK YOU FOR SHARING AND I AM TRULY SORRY FOR YOU LOSS! Blessings!
What makes you think your Representatives give a shit about anything but big corporate money? it is a waste of time, people need to understand that and start acting on it. doing for ourselves and stop asking permission to do what is necessary.
@@kemonoyama2084 some of them do and are there for the right reason. plus, maybe they'll do it for your vote.
Not all men destroy, only those who sold their soul to evil.
Thank you for posting.
So needs to be shared far and wide.
Over a decade ago I said GREED would take man down. Little did I know what a profound statement I had made. Blessings with God's grace
as in home/apartment costs here in Kalispell, MT...GREED rules!!!! As illegals are sipped up here, given living places, money, health care. Meanwhile the vets and homeless suffer!!! God's judgement!!!!
Years ago, while our group was studying the book of Revelations, I found myself saying over and over again, “America will have to fall for this to happen.” It was prophetic and from God. I know that now, because of the times. He’s returning soon, may we persevere.
It isn't just greed. It is deliberate evil.
Constance, I had this same issue a few years ago. The amazing thing about it was the Lord gave me a dream warning me that my garden would be poisoned. The next day after the man delivered the compost for my raised beds he jokingly informed me that he just got off the phone with a customer who accused him of having contaminated soil and he went on to rant that it wasn't his soil but she was crazy. I knew immediately why God had given me the dream.
It was the soil. It happened around the same time Jess from Roots and Refuge dealt with her high tunnel..
Long story short I wasn't able to grow nightshade for about 2 years. But I heavily planted Sunflowers in those beds and now they are thriving. There is something about the Sunflowers that help pull that poison out. 🌻 I pray your garden heals and thrives in the coming years ❤
I didn't know about sunflowers!! Corn does the same thing.
Sunflowers! Thank you!!
They even use sunflowers to detox soil after nuclear contamination.
I’m not familiar with this type of poisoning. What is it? Does it have an odor to it? I’m asking bcos I just emptied bags of top soil bought @ local Walmart. When I opened the Scott’s brand top soil it smelled odd. I finally told hubby It smells like kerosene to me!!! We had to get 10 more bags to be enough. We went to our TSC store and bought last 10 bags to complete my project. This was the exact same brand top soil but it DID NOT have an odor. Should I be concerned about the bags I first used????
@@denisefaust6408I definitely would.
This happened to me a few years ago. I feel sick for you. It was only my vegetables in pots that got the grayzon manure, but that was enough. It wasn't until I saw Deep South Homestead talking about it that I understood what happened. Your video will help someone else not make the same mistake. You will recover. Our food, and water, supply is fully under attack.
Deep south homestead encountered the same situation in their high tunnel.
Yes, and Danny said it takes years to overcome. It’s horrible.
I agree our whole food system has been tainted. I could scream this daily. It shouldn’t be this way. I hope you can recoup and find a good solution.
@Cosmopolitan Cornbread, I am just trying to think of a possible temporary solution. Is there a local community co-op where you can rent a plot of land, or perhaps a neighbor will let you garden on their land temporarily? This is heartbreaking and infuriating.
😢 if anyone can recall the old scifi movies made in the 50s and 60s, Soylent Green is the scariest i easily recall but there were so many. This is a long term project they're working. I remember a scene where a uber wealthy lady was eating " real strawberry jam".
Add activated carbon or biochar: Apply activated carbon or biochar to the affected area. Biochar is black carbon made from biomass sources like wood chips, plant residues, manure, or other agricultural waste products. One study says biochar can remove 68% of herbicides. However, adding biochar can raise the soil's pH level. Consider adding elemental sulfur to lower the pH back to your desired level.
this works, I now add activated charcoal every time I use composted manure.
We have property on top of a mountain. There’s an old man up there that digs out the big rocks, fills the holes with potting soil and plants in those. Maybe you can do the same there this year. He said the ground acts like a terracotta pot.
I’ve seen at least three other UA-cam channels that dealt with the Grazon poisoning. One of them said it took 3-5 years for the garden to recover. It definitely makes we question where hay is sourced from. Or if you get manure from somewhere you need to ask about the hay their livestock was sourced from. We need to make everyone aware
Black Kow- has Grazon in their 50lb bags. At least the ones I purchased. There is no way out when it hits the commercial/retail sales.
@@bcarol2484 can you provide the report that proves Black Kow contains Grazon? I have been using it for years and have never had a problem. I used the product EZ Straw several years ago as mulch and unbeknownst to me it contained Grazon. It made my plants look just like her plants. I took samples to the University of Georgia and had that straw tested. The test came back positive for Grazon(herbicide). When I contacted the manufacturer about it, they denied that they contain Grazon. I told them that I had testing them at the University of Georgia and what the test results were. I bought that straw from tractor supply and now when I go to look at the package, it clearly states on the package not to use in home gardens. But when I bought it, it was labeled organic safe. so they knew what it was doing to peoples gardens and hurried and changed it. I guess I’ll have to take a sample of cow and have it tested too..
Not just that, but all the medication the horses could be on.
Had an issue with the Kellogg products and steer manure from the big box stores. Straw used in the chicken bedding also had it when I composted it, switched to wood chips, found that worm compost and mushroom compost works
I'm so very very sorry! I completely agree with you about how EVERYTHING is corrupt. We can't even buy a tomato and grow the seeds from them anymore. All our food is contaminated and it's making us sick too.
Roots and Refuge lost a high tunnel to grazon their first year on their new farm in SC. So sorry for your loss. ❤🙏🕊
Yes, she has some very interesting ideas about how she healed the soil. Nature is so ahead of us ❤
I remember that. It’s infuriating.
@@CosmopolitanCornbread , Homestead Heart just lost a lot of crops from using bagged Black Kow manure. There is a recent video on their channel showing the devastation. I am so sorry this happened. It is infuriating.
@@luckydiscoqueenoh man I just used black cow in my garden beds
Constance - my heart breaks 💔. You were so looking forward to this. But ya know Satan uses man. Man is a tool. Haha. That isn't what I meant. Man is a puppet. Laughter doeth good like a medicine tho! I think it's a spiritual attack. The bible give aways. So be the warrior I know you are and I'll be praying. 🙏🏻😂⚔️📜🛡️. Rom.8:28
Be careful with the bagged manure, as well. Another homesteading channel used a leading brand, and the contents were not truly composted. They found that the newest bags they had obtained had an overwhelming smell of ammonia. Killed all plants that had been used with the new stuff.
Homestead Heart posted (last week) they lost a good portion of their garden,totally devastating!
It is exceedingly obvious the order went out to major manufacturers to 'sour the milk' so to speak on these products in an effort to ☠️. Like they said "you vill eat zee bugz". 😡😡😡😡😡
I came here to post the same comment about Homestead Heart. It was Black Kow manure. In their case, I think they should contact the company. I feel so badly for farmers who work so hard on their farms, to have things like this happen.
It was black cow that did their plants in.
So so sorry! This happened to me a few years ago, in my case it was the soil. The supplier came out and was mortified. We had purchased soil from him at least four times before over two decades. He was just as upset. He gets product from many farmers to compost into top soil. We suspected grazon or round up type contamination in someone’s manure as well. He lost the sale, was super concerned for other customers and his business, he felt so bad and we had to cleanup and out, scrape down and start all over again. Fortunately in California we have a long season and I was able to start again in early July and the difference in the plants was night and day, but very expensive! We went with organic soil and crossed our fingers because this stuff is everywhere and some people say round up is technically organic!!!
Our county ag voted to become gmo free but the bigger farmers said no. So we are stuck with a ticking time bomb here. I know this is not our heaven here, but the agenda in so many facets of our lives feels like pure evil!
Again, I’m so so sorry this happened to you. I know what you are feeling. I pray our Father gives you peace and wisdom in this.
People say round up is organic?! 😱😱😱
Sorry that happened. Give yourself some grace. The lord will give you a way out.
Exactly! We are all on a hell of a learning curve with this crap (fake food chain)
Oh no, so very sorry. I am hearing so many people having similar issues. Our food system needs a total reboot.
As does the education system, as does the medical system, as does the justice system, as does our government system 🤦🏻♀️ America is in crisis.
@@amomto4 unfortunately it’s not just America, but I know what you mean.
This has happened to a few homesteads over the last couple years. The most recent to you this year that I know of was Homestead Heart. This is so heart breaking!
I saw the homestead heart video and she said it was because the manure was still green. Not a grazon issue.
@@JubeeBijoucould have been both.
@@herelieskittythomas3726 Maybe, maybe not, but her plants were not exhibiting grazon symptoms.
I'm sorry that happened to you. Wonderful to meet a fellow Sabbath keeper. God's got you, pray about it.
The same thing happened to Roots and Refuge farm. Grazon seems to effect nightshades worse. Ine suggestion was to plant sunflowers to remove it. Beans are unaffected but I'd be afraid to eat them. So many people have no idea what they are putting in their bodies. So sorry this happened to you
I thought that bean seeds were the first thing affected. You could test new soil or compost by planting bean seeds and they will sprout and quickly die. Anyone else know for sure??
Also happened to Jill Winger of Prairie Homestead and David the Good.
The bean didn’t grow good they died. She said to test the soil . To plant a few seeds of beans if they grow your fine .if they died after a few weeks growing then it tainted .
So very sorry Constance what a disappointment. I will pray for you that the task will be lightened for you. I know your Garden is so important to you. And I love the videos. I hurt for you either way all my heart. 🙏
@@michellerose6721 I too heard that beans were a good and fast indicator of soil contamination.
I’m sorry this happened to you and your garden! At 72, I’m daily searching for what food is still healthy to eat and what is already unhealthy due to chemicals and additives in the food-even fresh fruits and vegetables. Nothing has been spared! Prayers you can salvage somehow your beds and still plant some this summer. God bless you! You certainly are a blessing to us.
I instinctively stopped using layer feed long before the "feed" went bad.
I started not trusting anything from any store way before anyone else was doing videos on it.
It time we all put our foot down together and put a stop to poisons.
I learned on Roots and Refuge that mushrooms and sunflowers help to remove Grazeon.
The weather manipulation via chemicals in different states affects how things thrive as well everything is sprayed now..
I believe that too. My husband and I made hoop houses for the boxes we were using and tried to remember to cover them every night...kind of like" putting the boxes to bed."
This makes me so angry! It's not fair. Why do they get to poison us (grazon sprayed hay, crop dusting with dust floating to neighboring gardens, crazy weird additives in "food", etc.) With no accountability? I cant grow an organic garden because of the fields i live near (crop dusting). I try to live vicariously through good UA-cam garden channels and i keep hearing these horror stories. I am so sorry this happened to you.
If you purchase compost you can check for contamination with bean seeds. They grow twisted if the Garzon is present, as you now know. Test in the bag before you spread.
So sorry for your loss.. Please don't let this stop you from gardening
What the enemy means for harm, YAH will use for good! You are a faithful servant HE will heal your land! Keep pressing forward Constance. This is a light momentary affliction that will, in the end, bring forth an abundance of fruit!!
Love and prayers from Alabama! SHALOM! ♥♥♥
So sorry that this has happened to you it’s so upsetting. We lost all our first batch of tomatoes to this chemical on Some farmyard manure a few years ago. Charles Dowding also lost a bed of beans. He suggested always testing any soil or mulches with sacrificial plants before using it…..we shouldn’t have to do this!! It’s criminal. Sending a big hug from the UK xxx
What a terrible situation, BUT what an important message to send out. Thank you for sharing.
There are no words to cover how terrible I feel for you. All that is going on makes one afraid to eat anything. Just know you are in my prayers.
I had to go read about Grazon. Yes. This is a curse. I’m devastated just realizing what you are experiencing. There are no words to express my pain for you. I am praying that you are able to recover your loss and heal your land. I’m so sorry. God bless you.
So sorry Constance. It’s so hard to find safe resources for our gardens.
Wow! I literally feel your heartache! That sucks! I have a few raised beds and understand how you feel about what and why you plant. 🌱 Our food supply is so horrible! Our bodies were never made to ingest all the chemicals in our food.
Try not to be so hard on yourself. Not all our loses are in vain. You still have a few beds to plant in and you have learned a valuable lesson that you have shared with all of us. I pray that God will abundantly bless the plants you have left and are able to plant. His will completely restore what you have lost. God bless!!!
So very hard. May God give you peace in the storm…….
So very sorry, Constance.
Thank you Juanita. It really stinks, but I hope good comes of this for others.
@@CosmopolitanCornbread I know good will come from it....for us and for you!
I'm so sorry that this happened to you. It feels like we're fighting an uphill battle CONSTANTLY everyday, especially when it comes to our food. Many are clueless. This truly is a spiritual battle, down to every small detail of our lives. The agregious over reach of the government on so many levels. I'm sure you already know but Jess from Roots and Refuge experienced something similar a couple years back when they moved to their new property. She did some videos on what they did to fix it. Praying for you and your family. Romans 8:28, stay strong! Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤
I am so very sorry. I know how hard you've been working.
Constance, my heart truly bleeds for you, and all that have been affected by this tragedy.
The most tragic thing here, is that the government is not caring enough for the people of this country to take care of them.
TEST for Grazon: Pack a bucket with the straw/hay in question and fill with water. Let soak for three days. Remove the straw and pour it on to sacrificial veggies planted into disposable container. Use broadleaf veggies. You will need to do this early in the season or the year prior to planting.
Love this idea...thank you for sharing.
That just breaks my heart for you! I understand the feeling of joy that growing your own vegetables gives and to have this happen is devastating. I am so sorry! 😢
Ugh yeah that’s like a 2-2.5 year recovery without taking it all out. I’m so sorry you are going through this. It’s heartbreaking.
I have a neighbor that this has lasted 5 years and more.
I know your pain first hand. Over two years ago we went through this. Finally got it under controlled. We have goats and composted everything when we would clean out the barns. We had narrowed it down to which hay we purchased was the cause. We only buy alfalfa hay and buy locally from a person that bales it right across the street from us so we know what is put on it. The farmer does not spray his fields. The other person we buy Alfalfa hay from practices organically due to growing rotation crops chemical free. I thought when this happened to us that I was terrible at growing a garden but after doing some research I found out the issue. We immediately took action and fixed it but it was a long haul. i will never buy hay from another source without full investigation or I grow ourselves which is not possible at this time but could be in the future.
The chemical warfare on us only going to get worse! I felt the same panic about getting a garden in the ground a few years back, and then The Holy Spirit reminded me of the Scriptures where God says He’s going to feed His people and perform wonders like He did in the wilderness. Stay Faithful, and God always provides a way for His people! I’m a Sabbath and Feast keeper as well, it’s always such a blessing to come across another one of God’s remnant! My daughter says she feels like we’re the only ones, but I always remind her of Elijah! God always has His remnant!! Blessings
@godissoverign5789 Blessings in Christ Jesus. If you don't mind me asking, how would I learn how to observe the feasts and sabbaths? I am on my own in this wilderness and I love the Lord and read in the Bible that the Sabbath is forever. And, since I believe every Word the proceedeth out of the mouth of MarYa Eshu, I would love to know more and then do it for the LORD. With all love and gratefulness in Christ, Mystery. Shalem.
@@MysteryGrey Blessings to you! I let the Holy Spirit lead me, so I do things a little differently than most, but I’m so very happy to share with you! I would just pray about what I say, and ask God to lead you as well! So my family keeps Sabbath on Saturday, sun up to Sunday sun up. This is because in Matthew 28:1 it says the Sabbath was ending as it began to dawn on the first day of the week. So we can see that Sabbath was kept all day Saturday, not Friday to Saturday. We have to remember that Satan has been sent out to deceive the nations, and that there’s a big misunderstanding of Scripture. Jesus was not a Jew, if you look into the word you’ll find that it didn’t even exist at the time of Jesus. Furthermore, Judea isn’t the same thing as Judah, and in fact was the name of a Babylonian province. The term Judea has nothing at all to do with The Law. So just bare that in mind while you seek these things out, and I implore you to look into these things. As for the Feast, I keep them according to the dates in The Bible, with the understanding that the first month is April. So I keep Passover on the 14th(from evening to evening on the 15th) Unleavened bread starts on the 15th, 50 days from the first Sabbath during Unleavened bread I keep Pentecost, and Tabernacle starts Oct 15. I also observe Feast of Trumpets on October 1st, and Day of Atonement on October 10th. I keep The Feast of Dedication starting December 25th(according to the book of Maccabees). I do not light a menorah, as I do not find that in Scripture, and it’s associated with some things that I do not agree with. I also keep New Moon on the FULL moon, according to what ancient Israelites observed. I have searched these things out, and this is where The Holy Spirit led me. I hope I said something to help you, and I pray Abba leads you into a good understanding of these things, and keeps you on His narrow path! Many blessings!
The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:
The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.
Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the Lord fulfil all thy petitions.
Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
Save, Lord: let the king hear us when we call.
I had a years worth of rotted down horse manure from my own horses, fed homegrown organic hay… stables bedded down on supposedly ‘aminopyralid clean’ OSR straw. Luckily I always test by growing few broad beans before using on my garden. Seeds popped up & 💥 showed signs of chemical poisoning. I was furious with the company but so glad I didn’t take their word. Now any bought in compost gets tested before I put onto the garden. You must be gutted, but you will overcome this. Good luck with your garden.
Good that you tested it!
I've been on the phone this week with one of those companies PNW own ORGANIC( Swanson) bought by some multinational. Told them all my compost bought from them was contaminated for any direct seeding. I had purchased just straight Swanson soil and compost products in 2020 cause they make it local. Big mistake. Swore never to purchase this brand again. But recently I found the PNW own organic and bought a lot. Didn't read the fine print of the parent company. Same damn one as before but now relabeled as organic. 🤬. And other miracle composts were trashy too. I'm so frustrated. You can't trust them. This company tests once a year AFTER temps get above 60s. Yeah. That helps us that prepare gardens before spring. Not!
Oh Constance! I’m so sorry to hear about this. Yes, the “tweeking” is everywhere, the air, the dirt, our food. I’m with you and yet I know (even in all the mess they’re doing) Whom is caring for us sister. We do the very best we can. Thank you for being real- it’s much needed these days. 🙏🏻
Yahweh will always keep a remnant of His people, despite Satan's tactics.
Yeah I don’t want to have to move to TN to avoid the constant Chemtrails checkerboard in my skies every week.
I am so sorry you are experiencing this. 😢😢 This HAS to be by design to stop everyone who can grow their own food from doing so. Reject all items in stores and lets learn how to make our own products again so we do not have to get sick. 🙏🙏🙏
The words you say are true. I am so sorry for this terrible situation. So disheartening.
I am so very sorry. I can feel your pain. These little plants are our babies :) no words can express enough our love in watching them grow and thrive. We try to take as much care of ourselves as we can, and others try to keep us dependent.
Im so sorry this happened. You are absolutely right, when man takes things into his own hand, he often ruins the beautiful design of Our Creator.
On a positive note, you'll have some beans and squash.
Give yourself some grace and thank you for sharing your experience. This may help others prevent the same issue. ❤
I just KNEW this was what this video was going to be about, when I saw the title.
I put hay on my ONE garden bed, and deep dark mushroom compost....I was so excited....and first year was great, never amended it again, but 2nd year mid range (not great) foliage, and 3rd year, NOTHING grew beyond 6 inches, no flowers, hardly any leaves, certainly no fruit/produce. I was convinced I was just a BROWN thumb! And then I tested the soil.... it's DEAD.
IM SO SORRY, FOR YOUR LOSS. So many of us are experiencing this SAME situation. This is not an accident. This is an intentional... thing. In fact, probably noone will ever see this, becausr of this...situation going on.
I must say, I was so touched by the fact that you planted a garden just for your new homeowners. That was just the sweetest thing. Good bless you and may He bless you abundantly.
It's not arrogance... it's their downright love for the adversary. I cannot say anymore, I'm sure I've said too much.
I am so very sorry Constance. Danny at Deep South Homestead, and Jess at Roots and Refuge boith have gone through this recently, and it is heart breaking. Will pray for a way to resolve this in an expedient way.. I enjoy your channel so much,the good and the sad are a learning curve for us all. Takr care and take heart.
I learned the hard way too. I never put any hay or straw into my compost now. I only use clean wood chips, leaves, grass clippings, and other materials that I know for sure is clean. I never use straw for bedding for my birds, only wood chips. I won't even bring straw or hay on my property. I am so sorry that this happened to you. Thank you for making this video. Maybe others will learn about this before its too late. Much Love from Nikiski, Alaska. Subbed!
Good advice never to even take it onto your property. What a shame
Had this happen 15 years ago, deep mulching with wheat straw contaminated with 2-4d and dicamba. Traced the straw bales back to the farmer, thanks to the feed store we bought from. "Clean" farming was just taking off here. About 10 years ago it happened again via horse manure we composted, that we got from a friend. The extension office investigated and said it looked like picloram and roundup, both of which pass through the gut still active.
Oh Constance....I can so feel your pain and frustration in this video. Most of us here know the time, money and labor intensive gardening is and to have it ruined by this is so sad, scary and absolutely frustrating.
I know its so hard right now but don't give up....keep pressing on. ...JOY WILL COME AGAIN IN YOUR GARDEN!!
I am heartbroken for you, knowing how much you were enjoying getting to build your garden again, this is devastating. Sending you strength to add to yours so you can make this an exceptional year. Keep God in focus and the help will come. 🥰
So very sorry. A section of our farm was poisoned by a neighbor, I know how you feel. That was several years ago. I have slowly begun planting that area again. It makes me a bit nervous and I am avoiding root crops. We lost very mature grapes and a few trees plus chicken eggs, chickens and several other food plants. It would have been too expensive to try to recoup the loss of time and money from him so we just stopped planting there for awhile.
Prayers for a workable solution for you.
It's great to see another Sabbath homesteader on UA-cam, glad I found your channel.
Blessings
Oh no, that’s so sad to hear. sorry that happened to you. How did your neighbor end up poisoning your land if you don’t mind me asking? Really awful that you couldn’t recoup anything
That is terrible!!! I’m so sorry you had that happen 😩
I'm so sorry, I pray for the healing of your garden.
😰 Oh no! I'm so sorry Constance 💔 and I'm spittin' mad along with you !😡
The only thing I can think of for this year's garden is plant in the ground, if you have room or do a container garden with what plants you have left. It may not be too late to get some good soil.
Thank you for showing us what grazon poisoning looks like in the plants.
😭
Oh , Honey ! I am so very sorry for your loss !
The only good thing to come out of this , so far , is that you are able to warn us of this hidden danger...cold comfort , I know...
The Father knows the intent of your heart and perhaps there is His comfort , from an unexpected source , in the future .
Sending love and hugs
💖🫂
Oh Constance, I’m so sorry. ❤ I hear you loud and clear 💯! Praying God leads and blesses us through all this poison everywhere. ❤ Bug hug! 🥰
I feel so sorry for you and couldn't agree more with your words and frustration on our food. I have so much anger with what they are doing to food and our environment. Good bless you.
OMG. I so feel for you. Thanks for the warning! Prayers.
Oh no..I am so, so sorry 😞 that is heartbreaking ! But God’s got you and He has a plan..maybe you don’t know how just yet but you’ll have a garden and you’ll have your hands in the dirt and growing food again soon! Sending all the love, encouragement and prayers your way 🫂❤️
I am so sorry. My heart breaks for you . Gardening is very rewarding but it is hard work. And you have spent a lot of time and money. Praying for you.
As a fellow gardener my heart goes out to you
Yes it is so rewarding to garden. That is so cool that you planted a garden for whoever moved into your old home.
I'm so sorry! That is worth a rant. Praying for you. And wisdom with the garden.
Constance this is heartbreaking. Thank you for sharing this video❤
Don't give up, I had this happened to me a few years ago depending on how heavy the contamination is my plants looked sick and didn't thrive but they lived and produced some not as much as they should have. I planted sunflower the following 2 seasons and it cleared it up
We lost our first garden just this year- ours died due to poor dirt management. We are still learning and we didn’t plan the nutrients that should be part of the soil.. but it still hurt. So my friend I can’t imagine the hurt you are feeling. I’m so very sorry.
Prayers for you during this struggle
I’m so very sad about what has happened to you! You deserve a good rant! It’s shocking, frightening and makes me angry, too. I lost my garden to Grazon tainted manure 3 years ago. Everything curled up and died. Broke my heart to see everything die. I’m praying for your speedy recovery from this loss and for you to have peace. ❤🙏🏻❤️
I’m so sorry. Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s so important we are all paying attention- sharing your heartache will be helpful to so many.
So very sorry for your loss. Praying for the Lord add unto you what you have lost and multiply it ❤.🙏
Bless your heart. I'm praying for you!!
This is one of the reasons why a very rich land buyer has been setting once cattle land idle for ten+ years before putting it to use for anything! All the drugs fed to farm animals including cattle which are required by unelected agencies that do NOT report to the citizens have been poisoning the land for many decades! We have to manually pollinate many of our vegetable plants due to no pollinators! Sometimes we have a few alternative pollinators which does help. We are in a very sad situation!
It’s not just the corporations.
My bees keep dying out and so many lawns in the community are weed free. Why are herbicides still available to consumers in the stores?
So sorry you had to go through this, after all your work you put into your garden. I've just read of another gardener after planting her food plants found them all dead from the roots to the dirt. She realized it was the black cow manure that hadn't been prepared properly. So she and her husband had to start over. That is so sad.
Look at Jess at roots and refuge, she had the same with her soil, she used mushroom compost and it took a season to amend
As I plant my garden , my heart breaks for you . here in Texas, I heard this same story and It breaks my heart to hear your story . Ninette Bird The Caribbean Wife , Tx
Grow mushrooms in those beds this year! Compost teas.
Sunflowers and grasses will help too.
I watched the Texas gardener, he did the same thing. It happened to me about 10 years ago, when I had soil delivered. I didn’t really get it until I watched his video. It is very risky to take any soil that is not sold to you as organic in bags. I wouldn’t dare buy anything off a truck again. I passed this information to my next door community. You did good sharing this. A lot of people make the same mistake. It kills your soil. It can’t grow anything. It’s dead. I had to cover the spot with landscape fabric, I can’t use it. It’s the only place in my yard that gets sun. I can only put in raised beds, I only use bagged garden items for use from the garden center.
I am so sorry my heart goes out to you and your family. Sending you Prayers & a hug.
How truly heartbreaking!
I'm so, so sorry lady! We lost all our plant starts too. I don't know what happened. 🥺
Too many new gardeners must be blaming their failed gardens on their lack of experience. Not!
So sorry for your loss. I understand your problems, I live in Texas where poison reigns high. I fight everyday to produce clean meat and vegetables. We should all stand up to the giant companies and let others know what is doing.
So sorry you have to go through this-praying for you. You are nice to share so that others may be aware of the dangers .
Man, I'm so sorry 💔
Oh no, I'm so sorry. 😢 For the donkeys as well. What a crappy thing to happen to a nice person. 🇨🇦
I’m so sorry that this happened to you. Thank you for warning the rest of us ❤
Its so tragic and makes everything feel so hopeless 💔
I've seen so many videos on this topic there is no way I'm bringing anything from the outside to my garden. If it takes me longer to build my soil so be it.
I'm just thinking when will those responsible for all the loss and grief be made to take responsibility for it
