    The other week I was watching one of your videos and I told my husband that your videos are magical because your kindness comes through each one. You take the time to recognize the gardeners and the unique intricacies in each garden. You don’t just see the garden, you see the gardener and make each one feel special. That is a gift and I am so thankful that you share your gift with gardeners far and wide. I look forward to your videos every week and watch many of them multiple times 😊. Thank you for sharing your story!

    I can't express how much peace and joy each video brings me! I usually watch first thing in the morning as part of my meditation practice. Your calming voice, gentle spirit, friendly personality and knowledge for plants make each video a treat! Thank you Jay for gifting the world a peek into these beautiful secret gardens and thank you to each gardener that has been gracious to share their works of art.

    Thank you. I filmed my dad's garden shortly after his death. I believe that though I was still in shock at his loss, my grieving process began as I walked through his garden. Now that the season has changed, I'm glad I recorded the garden in its full glory.

    I cannot begin to tell you what a peaceful, serene experience you give us. I have a very small garden and courtyard, but enjoy gardening in every square inch. I love seeing these amazing spaces and gardeners with such passion. It really does inspire me, in my humble surroundings to strive for beauty, not perfection. Thank you so much.

    Thank you for sharing your story about how you began your channel. I am thrilled to have found you! 15 years ago we downsized from 5 1/2 acres of gardens to a postage stamp size garden. These tiny gardens can be magical as well. I live in a top tourist destination along the northern California coast. I can’t tell you how many people stop their cars in the middle of the street to photograph my garden or if I’m in the garden, ask me about specific plants or opinions and thoughts on garden designs. My husband is a certified arborist. He’s been in business over 40 years climbing 200+ foot trees and trimming 2 foot tall trees. Scaling down has had me hyperfocus on what I want to achieve in a small space. I would love to see other small gardens. Thank you so much for sharing your love and joy of gardening with those of us who do as well.❤

    Oh my, Jay. I am so glad you shared your story. It definitely touched a chord within me, a chord which resonates with the beautiful simplicity of God’s world. I live in the mountains of SE Kentucky. I have only been to New York once in my life on a sort of bucket list trip. We visited the expected sites, but still I was able to enjoy garden plantings whether we were in Central Park or on Ellis Island. Your videos open the “gates” of these gardens that most of us would otherwise not be able to see. I so appreciate hearing the whispers in the gardens that you so lovingly present.

    I enjoyed hearing the story behind your UA-cam channel, while you took us to one beautiful garden after another. I am so grateful to you and the gardeners who have allowed us a look into these serene, peaceful, and inspiring spaces. I hope you will be able to continue to post these weekly visits. I often view the video with your commentary and lovely music, then turn off the audio and watch the video again, as if I am walking through the spaces myself. Such an opportunity for reflection and meditation! Thank you!🙏 ❤

    As someone who is not able to travel or walk very much, the garden visits are so much appreciated. I look forward to seeing them and want to say what a good job that you have done. I know that sometimes the open gardens support a cause. I am sure that if you note and link the charity (or those suggested by the garden iwners), then maybe some online donations would be made by viewers. Thanks again for the beautiful strolls threough the garden!

    I don't know how recently I found you, but it's probably been in the last month or so. I live in central NY, and absolutely love watching your videos, and really enjoy your calming voice overs, or conversations with the gardeners. Living in a similar climate zone, I can see how other's pair plantings. I too have a large garden, but really wish I had more tree coverage in my village plot. I hope you'll continue and your channel grows, to help support your work. Thank you and to the gardeners for allowin you in their private space!
