That’s pretty cool your plants are producing cucumbers and eggs 😆
I loved the surprise eggs!
What a treat for goats
Loved the duck eggs in cucumbers
Growing eggs in the garden. That's an interesting idea.
Sayla is so hard working and is turning into a beautiful young lady!
Wonder how the cucumber flowers would taste? You can eat squash blooms I imagine cucumber blooms would be similar.
Selah's puppet show with cukes ❤ she's such a delight. All your children are such blessings, good job raising them 👏
You all have a beautiful garden. The problem child goat is so cute with that PAUSE/PLAY button. 😂
Goodness! When she prunes, she REALLY prunes! LOL! 🤣 I look forward to seeing how much harvest those tomatoes produce after getting all that attention. She has taught me that I need to prune more. Thank you!
I don't know why but seeing the eggs under the cucumber leaves made me smile
Yeah, a nice shady spot to lay eggs. Now that you have pruned them so much, I'm not sure they will continue to lay eggs under there anymore. They sure like to hide their eggs if they can.
I love all y'alls hard work and dedication. Your kids are so Well mannered. Parenting done Right!!! Blessings 💜💜💜💜💜~Mel
Those hooks work really well. The plants look so healthy, and everything looks like it's fairly easy to see.
This is a lovely family. He and mom are teaching how to garden. I love watching how they do things. I learn something every time ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Little man is getting to be such a farmer I just love him.
Every video just makes me love you guys more! The RESPECT you instill in your family is beautiful and so inspiring.
Much love and may Allah always protect you and your precious family.
Everyone is getting so grown up! Salah just gets more beautiful everyday, and the boys are such hard workers. With my Houdini goat, I tied her to a tire wheel, the metal part. She was new to the herd, and not quite integrated. All this did was keep her from getting to far away from the enclosure. After a month or so, she was more comfortable with her new herd and stopped trying to find her old family. Hope that helps.
Sayla is awesome. She brings laughter and character to the farm. I would have her as a farm buddy anyday. Love her expressions.
Haha. My saying. “A little dirt never hurt” 🥰
The new little goat is gorgeous.
Loved the sound of the rain on the yurt. We are having temps in the 90’s, humidity and are in a moderate drought here in Iowa. We need rain! Rain dances please!
Well theres your problem, you must repent of your blasphemous rain dances and maybe God will water your garden.
The rain on the Yurt feels like holiday ... just love the sound
Did you save your strawberry runners that you cut off? If those were touching soil they would have rooted.
Man I enjoyed listening to the rain.
Love me some fresh cucumbers. Dipped in ranch dressing.
My husband hates when I PRUNE! I usually still get produce till frost when I keep stuff prunned.
Y'all make me smile!💜😀
God bless your precious family.
I love your theory of being care takers of the earth as well as animals. Yes us as humans are caretakers. Love your humour, you are teaching your children very well. Thankyou.
I hope my strawberry plants do well. It’s my second time trying to grow them.
I hope with the pruning, the cucumbers 🥒 start growing better, and it's so nice watching your family always working together ❤ on the homestead! 😊👍💕💕💕
Glad to see boys helping
There's a little french cucumber called cornichon which makes amazing pickles.
I had to come watch again to get the names of the cucumbers Selah grows! They both made me want to grow them! Thanks for the great ideas Selah! Your parents have an amazing helper in you!
Everything is looking so good. No fear Lacie pruning technique,I’m getting braver,it definitely makes a difference. Looking forward to an update on your carnivore experience. The kids are growing like your garden,beautifully.
My grandma used to love to pickle the little cucumbers. She’s add a bit of jalapeño.
You have egg plants growing!!🤣😘. Love watching you working with your children
Selah is growing into a perfect young lady
Nice cucumbers! Great that the boys are helping. It's great to hear the little duck noises in the background. Pause/play, so cute. Loved the joke about life being hard because it's green. Kermit would be proud. The strawberries look great. It is looking super good on the homestead this year you guys! Nice fermentation bottles. Those will look so nice as they ferment on the counter. The rain does sound nice on the yurt. It is so fun seeing you guys do this as a family. Thanks for sharing this. God bless.
What ever it is that everyone is doing it's showing really well on video. The farm is looking so organized. Continued success growth and blessings to you family.
I use fresh dill in mine. MMMMMM I can’t wait for our cucumbers. Our season is behind yours.
I stick a piece of garlic in mine to give more flavor too.
@@audreyabdo7719 I use fresh dill, fresh garlic, and a grape leaf or two. The tannins in the grape leaves helps them to retain their crunching.
Crazy cucumbers!! The boys are so cute and such a good helpers!
The greenhouses both look fantastic 🙏🏻👏🏻❤️🥰
I just found this channel yesterday, and I love it. I really do love your lifestyle. I wish that I live like that.God bless you sll.
The pruning process is also beneficial to us health-wise. Great Question Young Lady!
Well done 👍👍👍💕💕💕💕 hardworking , united, loving family ! I really appreciate n admire your family, working together , harvesting n pruning your cucumbers! And brining the cucumbers in salt n explaining everything!
Very playful health marriage and love✊🏾❤️❤️❤️✊🏾
Thanks guys for the pruning lesson on cucumbers. Mine will need to be pruned soon. Love the kids helping and the excitement when finding fruits.
I Learned So Much From This Video! Thank You!! Hugs To Everyone!!!
So Awesome kids knees dont hurt after bending as long lol truly awesome videos my poor knees had me grunting just watching you guys
Love little Micah. He loves helping. Such a sweet little guy. He reminds me of my youngest son, who is now probably your age. Josiah's funny! You guys got great kids and an awesome family. Love y'all. God bless
Love the video I love the question that your daughter asked what a perfect teaching opportunity and I love how little Micah gets so excited when he found the cucumber
The Kermit impression made me lol and smile 😃 thanks ❤️ I love your family and thanks for the quick pickle recipe lacey.
Oh! Cucumbers have suckers like tomatoes do! I wish I'd known this. I didn't know you could trim them down. Such beautiful green and blossoms.
A busy day picking..purning..fermenting...
Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻
Love fermented veggies!!!💖
I have the exact same fermenting kit, just love it.
Ever fermented green tomatoes? Great for the end of the season when frost is coming and you have lots of green tomatoes. We make mixed salad with green peppers, carrots, cauliflower... whatever:)
Thanks Dixon Family!! I had no idea that you even COULD prune cukes!! You are always INTERESTING and teach me, even though I have been gardening for over 40 years>>>>>and here I thought I knew everything! Most of the shows, websites and books I have already digested and eaten up>>>but you and Lacie always make me reassess my capacity!!
Love you all!
PS>>>>>Selah is becoming a very beautiful young lady!!!
Real interesting watching him go all the way with hot water. Hope he is a good teacher not just a doer you watch.
I really enjoy watching y'all work together ❤ your plants look so healthy
Love your homestead and thought it was funny to see eggs in there
I never thought about pruning cucumbers like you are doing, but it makes sense. I look forward to seeing the plants in a few weeks. I envy you all, it is really difficult to grow cukes here in SWFL due to the pests and hot humid weather conditions that promote growth of diseases. I appreciate how you involve your children in your work/gardening. That is how they learn!
Love your family. ❤️ you are all so loving and and kind to one another. 🇨🇦❤️❤️😔👌
Lacie, that top looks really good on you. A suggestion with the strawberry runners. Place them in the soil until they root, then clip off the runner so it doesn't sap anything from the parent place.
Lacey I was by you in Hannibal watching Stacy's ferment demonstration she took the fear out of it for me.
Hey .. everyone Moniee-Mon, is watching thanks for the info vedios and keep doing what'cha do best God bless you 🙏😊
This is ALL so interesting, and fun to me as a viewer! You make it FUN for the children and that's GREAT family time! These moments become 'memories' that bond y'all. That can't be found on some store shelf... Its homemade and blessed! HAPPY HARVESTING! : )
Love your family!! Such a wonderful environment for love and learning ❤
My ducks leave my garden alone. Except my bush beans they love them. They just eat the leaves not the beans.
Wow, you really have a great crop of cucumbers. Way to garden.
Thanks 👍😊 for teaching me, one good day I will grow them cucumbers!
Look at Micah knows how to harvest. You guys are foi g a great job.
Hi...... Mike Dickson and Lacie nice to see you, thank you for showing your video homestead chicken Duck farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐥🐐🎥👍👍👍
The little cukes wouldn't make it into the house,I love those things.Also a cucumber sandwich with Dukes mayo,slap yo granny
Those cucumbers really do look delicious.I could eat them like an apple minus the peel,or cut up with a little salt, pepper, and vinegar. They taste really good this way chilled. Sometimes, I would add a tomato.
Add a slice of onion, slap yo grandpappy to! Lol
Micah is getting so big! I love pickles but never had fermented pickles. Those cute little ones are going to be so delicious. Mike I love a cucumber, onion and tomato salad. Once your cherry tomatoes grow in ooowee they're going to pair well with your cucumbers.
Beautiful family.
I planted mm cucs, they were doing great, then died when temps dropped. I have more starts and the true leaves popped yesterday. Maybe I'll plant them Saturday. 🤞 🙏🏻 🤞 🙏🏻 🤞 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
Blessings, julie
beautiful family. love your dedication
Thanks Guys another great video, boy those cucumber plants are amazing as are your tomatoes. I always preserve my cucumbers when we have an abundance which isn't often as my husband eats them all. Cheers Denise- Australia
Marketmore cucumber is my favorite, too, but decided to also try Baker Creek’s “Monika” this year.
Micah, Josiah, and Selah - growing up before our eyes!
“Pause” - “Play”. Too funny!
Best wishes from Kate in Olympia, WA - 6/12/2021.
I never knew you could prune cucs. Thank you for that info!
Market mores are great producers!
I’ve never pruned them. I get a great harvest all summer long. With a shorter growing season in 6a, I just don’t see the need to prune them.
I’ve had some grow as large as a pound or more and they still taste great!😃
I've been watching your channel on TV under my husband's account for quite some time. Today I added you to my acct and subscribed on my phone just so I can comment.
It's was so cute & funny watching the kiddos play with their newly (then) discovered "Play & Pause" feature of the "problem child".
Today I'm going through some of your older videos. Wishing your family success in all that you attempt. You have a beautiful family.
I really appreciate & admire your method of sharing your family & life. I think part of your success is your humble & unpretentious personality, natural sense of humor, & videography style. ❤️
Thanks for adding us, Teresa, glad to have you here. Appreciate you watching and your comment! Have a great day!
Love all the different cucumbers you grow and harvest, hard to get many types to buy at the moment can't garden.
I tried the tasty green cucumbers last year and they were great! You harvest them when they are the thickness of your thumb and they are so fresh tasting.
Even though this is a year old, that high tunnel you have set up there I bet rendered you a fruitful crop!! Love tomatoes and cucumbers. Great on salad or just alone. Interesting watering system there. Great family team work. How full did Hazel get? She would rather be sscratched than eat. LOL. WOW! That second high tunnel has tomato plants taller than you. You are correct on our roles as caretakers. A lot of humans though do not want to do that!! Rain is very relaxing. From God. Will put you to sleep if you lay down. Shela is precious Praise the Lord for windows. Enjoyed the video very much. God bless all of you!! ❤
Beautiful flowers on those cukes.
Yes a little dirt does not hurt Lacie!! YUMMY PICKLES!!
I equate finding a veggie in a garden to hunting for seashells! It is so exciting, fun and rewarding to find the " treasure"! I love it and I am sure your family does as well! Your adventure is our adventure! GOD BLESS!
I eny you guys for planting a beautiful garden. I'm coming to enjoy your veggies with you so lucky
I love Redmonds salt- thanks for the link to order from them. A friend of ours works at the plant in Utah and I have picked it up when visiting them, but don't get up there as often as I used to. I've started pruning my tomatoes after watching your videos in the past, now I'll need to do the same with the cukes!
I have had a good crop this year due to all the rain
Great video family. I started using those lids because I saw you using them. I love them.
Is she bolting through the fence when it shocks her instead of backing away from it? My goat Luna would bolt forward through the fence and so I tied her to a post close enough that she could just touch the fence but couldn't go forward, after a few times of touching it and getting shocked every time she tried to go forward instead of back she finally figured out that if she backed up instead she didn't get the shock. It was rough the first few times cause she would hit the fence 3 or 4 times each time but I couldn't have her tearing up fences. Now if she gets to close to the fence she let's out a loud snort and backs straight up from the fence she wants no part of getting zapped.
good idea
GOD BLESS YALL.. NICE JOB🥰
🥰🥰🥰
I have a chicken who's a problem child too. At least I got her to stop eating my plants.
Great video and impressions of Kermit! lol I used to help my Mom make Bottled beets etc but we cooked them and then used a mixture of sugar hot water and vinegar to do them up, Nice to learn about fermenting! Thanks!
Quelle belle vidéo de cueillette en famille !!! Live you !!! Blessings +++.
Du sud de la France.
Kids are just the right size to scout out ripe veggies close to the ground!
Beautiful garden indeed
Helloooo from 🇨🇦
Wow your Cukes and Tomatoes are growing ... I see you pruning Cukes again..This is the 1st year in 10 that I do not have a garden😢 Miss it soooo..
While my cukes were growing I had them up like yous do outside .. and would just prune lots of the leaves ... And as I harvested some one told me to leave a little piece of Cuke on the stem of plant and more would grow in that spot .. it sure worked awesome 👍👍 I harvested so much from 12 plants... We ate all we wanted pickled lots and gave to neighbors all summer long 👍😊
God's Continual Blessings to you all 🙏😇💝
I love mini cucumbers for snacking with hummus or dips….they cost $3 for four little ones……I like them better then large ones….
We love sweet pickle relish and using jalapeños along with cukes makes a great hot relish…..
My favorite sandwich is toasted bread with sliced cuke and homemade Mayo……
Take problem child and tie her to a few cinder blocks and put her in a weed patch you need cleaned out…our jumper always headed for the poison ivy on trees and vines, we just kept watch so she didn’t tangle up her chain and moved her about….
Too many cukes then dehydrate them and make into a powder, great to make dressing with……add to Mayo, add to Italian dressing or just add to smoothies.
I haven't been able to grow cucumbers since my 1st year. The squash bugs kill them. I just ordered the fermenting kit. Maybe I will be able to successfully ferment vegetables.
Beautiful Produce! Little goat is adorable and like a goat mischievous :) The goat sure loves those cucumber leaves. Never seen dragon egg cucumbers before. Do they taste the same as normal cucumbers? Love the fermenting tutorial Thank you Lacy.
your video notifications are like a gift to me. I'm always happier when I watch your videos. I'm watching your videos here in Brazil
Thank you so much! It makes us happy to hear that our videos can brighten your day.
