    Love everything you two are working on. I remember well the things we did living off the land, the struggles we had when nature had other ideas, and how my husband and I grew closer together as we worked through the challenges and felt blessed from our accomplishments and the beauty of nature surrounding us. Baby is beautiful. Hopefully when she goes in for surgery to fix her eye they can spay her at the same time. Life is more beautiful with challenges to open up new growth.

    It was so joyful to watch you having so much fun together again. Actually the tree in the stream will slow and break up the current. We used to make little sandbag, log and stone step dams on steep streams on hillsides to slow the erosive speed of the runoff. Loved your pump innovation too. ❤❤

    My dearest you tubers.. My husband and I have been watching your channel since you first moved on the off grid farm. You are one of our favorites and follow you closely. I just want to say thank you for your kind thoughts and recognition of the devastation Hurricane Helene brought to Western North Carolina. I am a WNC native and was very fortunate to not have experienced the catastrophic floods and winds. Our hearts are broken for our neighbors and the beautiful landscape that is forever altered.
    We feel forgotten and abandoned by our leaders in state and government. But our brothers and sisters in Christ have Blessed and continue to Bless us. Their hands lift us up. I want to thank you for uplifting us from your home across the ocean. Thank you for caring. Your words mean so much. We love you and your beautiful channel. Forever your fans and viewers.

    I took green branches off our willow trees that had not created a brown hard bark surface and the circumference of my wrist and created a lengthy trench and laid the 3 to 4 foot branch into the trench and burried in with soil about 6 to 8 inches deep leaving the finger size branches intact sticking up and created a wall of willows. Since willow grows relatively fast, we were able to create a beautiful wind barrier wall and our erosion problems quickly became no problem at all within a years time. That was back in 2001 and they are still standing big and tall today. The best part is the branches don't usually get so big that if they were to break that they don't cause damage to out buildings. Best of luck on your journey. ❤

    You may want to get that dam, etc., seeded with quick growing annual grasses as well as perenial grasses, even if you plan for other kinds of planting later. That ground cover will help keep things together during heavy rain. It's not a total fix, but it can help.

Well done on choosing it - it's earning it's keep for sure. So glad the damage wasn't worse - sounds like you have great plans to complete that pond. Seems the Willow roots will also help to filter and clean the water too. As @patbrady9531 said: you look reborn!

  • @robwarren5744
    @robwarren5744 2 місяці тому +2

    Your ideas about putting stones where the dam is higher than the ground below it, is a great solution. It’s obviously going to be a problem area, so the quicker you can put the stone in place and build that corner up with soil & planting, the better. Planting Reed’s. Around the inner wall of the dam will also help strengthen it. Perhaps as you said, a tree or two, for example willow? Which would provide some welcome shade for your fish. Btw, putting fir tree limbs into the water is not a good Idea due to the acidity in the plant. Again a willow may be better. Hope it turns out alright for you both.

      @@theindieprojects Bee, I'm an amateur mycologist/forager since '94, in central France. if you take good pics of the plants and mushrooms, I'd be happy to do my best. I'll need _very_ closeup views of them, plus top, underside, and profile of the mushrooms to get close on ID, as well as any scents and textures (dry, velvety, slimy, soft, firm). However, some are very easy, like the little brown ones in the cone - Mycena seynii, not edible nor magic, but very cute.
      Here, pharmacists used to be well trained in mushroom ID, but the younger ones are not learning as much. As Marianne says, if you can find an older pharmacist, you can ask them to help. You may want to pick up some good field guides for both, to get used to the fine differences. You may also find a local nature group, as I did, or at least a knowledgeable older resident, to help learn your local flora/myco. It takes a good while to learn, but it's so rewarding.

    If you can get some grass seed, that would be great for the pond. This is a good time to put it down. It doesn't stress trying to grow leaves and roots as it is cooling off. If you got perennials flower seeds, also plant them so they can start growing now, and they will die back a little over winter and come Springtime, those plants will take off. You can pull up some clumps of grass and replant it in those areas that has water runoff.

    A couple of large bales of straw in the top lake will stop the algae? Pine cones are great for starting a fire too.. Thanks for the vlog, a joy as always

    Poor Theo he looks like his legs are going rusty. Hope he gets to sample the pine nuts. Great trek around the mountain today, thanks for taking us with you.

    You two were very lucky that the dam didn't totally give way!😅 You could've lost the pond. Fixing the part that had started to give way is so much easier than fixing a completely breach of the dam. It will be so much more stable when you get the 🌳 and grass in. Even with this slight setback you both seem to be handling it well...with good humor.

    Oh y'all! Dig up some sprigs of that mint and plant it around the dam! It's fast growing and will rapidly spread and the roots go deep!
