- Grow an Endless Garden | Start Saving Seeds Today Have you ever wondered what people did before seed packets? We take for granted that we can visit the seed racks at nurseries and big box stores and/or shop seed catalogs and websites. It's so easy to fill up a shopping basket with seed packets! Guess what? Saving seeds is not only NOT hard at all - it's fun! Let's start with a spring garden walk-thru, from a seed saving and food preserving perspective. Come on, let's go! The garden has been planted for a mere 3 weeks, a perfect time to take a peek. The plants are small in size, but BIG in potential.

Such a relaxing walk through your glorious garden my friend! Thank you for sharing. You have some varieties that make my heart go pitter patter 😍🥰
I absolutely enjoyed this episode! Your passion, knowledge and appreciation for an age gone by is refreshing and entertaining. Thanks for your show!
Thank you for your kind words, Mike.
its torey here michelle, i’ve always wanted to learn how to save seads. too bad i don’t have a garden here.
I enjoyed your tour, twice! It's going to be wonderful to watch everything grow throughout the summer. I'm familiar with Seed Savers Exchange, having been a member as it began. It's one of the best gardening resources available. Saving seeds is something I love & am looking forward to beginning again. I'm hungry from hearing about & seeing your garden's bounty. I especially like your blackberry fence. They are such a joy. Looking forward to whatever you bring to us next! 🌻
Oh my, Jeanne, I am so flattered! SSE is a wonderful resource. I appreciate all I have learned over the years from them and I miss Kent Whealy being at the helm. Do you have wild blackberries where you are? I am so looking forward to the season's first cobbler or pie! Blessings to you today, Michele
@@ChocolateBoxCottage Yes! There's lots of wild clusters of Evergreen blackberries all around me. It's a beautiful ritual every year to pick & enjoy them.
What a great tour, Michele! I loved all of it! I've only been gardening a few years so it's so nice to see what others grow to have things rotating through 3 seasons...I will try some fall gardening with kale and chard this year for the cooler months...also love the vintage lunch pail for your seed storage ....so adorable :)
Thank you for visiting my garden, Lisa! I'm so glad you are a gardener, too. Fall greens are always a good idea. You'll find many uses for them in the kitchen and you just can't beat the freshness. XOXOX Michele
Thank you for sharing your garden. It is so amazing and lovely.
Mine too is full of small plants, but it will soon be overflowing, God willing, with the abundance of nutritious blessings. Each day I am so excited to see the new growth in anticipation of the first ripe fruit. ❤
It was a fun to share, thank you! Gardening teaches us many things, among them faith in the potential of a small seed. Patience, too. And that patience is rewarded. Have a beautiful day and a bountiful harvest. Blessings, Michele
Thank you so much for the video! I learned a few things this morning. Have a great day!
Thank you for letting me know, I appreciate that! Have a beautiful day, Jessica. ~Michele
Enjoyed your garden tour. A simple season sent me. lol look forward to future videos
Hi Maggie, thank you for stopping over from A Simple Season! Love, Michele
Thanks so much for taking us on a tour of your beautiful garden! Some of the varieties you mentioned that were no longer available commercially, I found on Etsy so I ordered a few. I think most gardens are off to a slower start this year but hope for a good crop anyway. Love the tepee too. Hope you have a blessed week!
Hi Sue, thank you for visiting my garden! I've heard the same - many gardens are off to a slow start. This was filmed a week ago and I can't believe how much everything has grown in that time! Enjoy your "new" heirloom vegetables. Blessings to you, Michele
That was a wonderful tour Michele! I will be interested to see what you think of those new tomatillo's. I put in more than I will need again...whooops. I save some tomato seeds last year and am growing them again this year to obtain more. Also have a few rare or extremely rare tomato, dry beans and a pepper I am planning on saving seed from. Saved some mullein seed last winter and was amazed at the germination rate. Good job Ma'am!
Thank you! I too am curious how the Chupon de Malinalco tomatillos will do. I saw a photo years ago and have had my eye out for them since. Good for you growing unusual and rare varieties and saving seeds. We all need to be doing this. Your garden is awe-inspiring. I will be following your updates in HK with interest. ~Michele
I am a new subscriber! I am glad your channel was recommended.
I tried saving lettuce seeds last year by letting them bolt. There were sooooo many. I got frustrated and threw them away. You've inspired me to try again and keep at it.
Lettuce is a generous producer of seeds. You don't have to save them all. Choose seeds from plants that bolted last and were healthy. It's worth trying again. ❤️ Michele
Wonderful advice and information. Mary from @MarysNest did a wonderful shout out for both our channels in her last video.
She did, thank you for stopping over! I will have to take a peek at your channel. ~ Michele
What an informative video! Thank you!
Why thank you! I appreciate your kind words! Michele
Michele, another great video. Thank you for sharing. I love the wooden stakes. I will be changing over next year.
HI Sue, thank you! Wooden stakes are the way to go. They don't disappear into the weeds and if you use a Sharpie to write on them the print stays legible all season. Blessings on your garden, friend. Love, Michele
thank you.
Michele thank you so much for sharing. i learned so much and this fall i want to save seeds and will refer back to this lesson.
Hi Liddia, I'm so glad you found it helpful and inspiring. You are making leaps and bounds of progress with your burgeoning homesteading skills. It's so fun to see. Blessings, Michele
Would love a video about how to make a teepee
That's a great idea! 💡
Thanks for these good tips. I luv to look at your garden. Very peaceful! May I ask if you made that adorable blouse? Just my style. If you did, would you mind telling me the pattern name? Thanks much!
Hi K W, you're welcome and thank you! I love this blouse. It's cute and comfortable, which is perfect in my book. I do sew, but this is one I purchased at Fred Meyer which is a subsidiary of Kroger. It's their Dip brand and it is a 55/45 blend of linen and viscose. I hope you can find a pattern! Love, Michele
I would love to get some of those tangerine dream jalapeño seeds from you. Are you selling them?
Also the tomatoes that are the color of terracotta
Hi Abby, this is something I hadn't thought of. There are so many beautiful and unique vegetable varieties out there worthy of being planted, enjoyed, and saved. Thank you for asking. ~Michele
If you ever decide too, please let me know.
How is the teepee tied at the top and secured at the bottom.
The poles are pushed into the soil and fastened at the top with wire. I have to confess, it is a bit of a mystery to me - my husband somehow managed to put the poles in place and secure them when I went inside to put in a load of laundry. 🤭
Can you give me some of those pure seeds. I have never herd of most of the varieties that you have and I am just starting out as a backyard gardener
I'm so happy you're learning to garden! A good place to find many wonderful open pollinated veggies that you can save seeds from is Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co. www.rareseeds.com/ ❤️🤗❤️ Love, Michele
Are you selling any of your beautiful seeds?
Hi Jenna, thank you for asking - this is something I haven't thought of. :) There are so many unique vegetable treasures out there. ~Michele
@@ChocolateBoxCottage I've just found your channel because of the indoor gardening. Would love to purchase or swap for some of those pepper seeds. I love to swap seeds. As you've said here, I'd love for people to have availability to seeds.
