I watched your video, went and bought a cattle panel, posts and post pusher. Husband came home, put it up and we love it. Just need to put up more. We decided to make extra gardens by the street this year and offer free tomatoes and maybe cucumbers. We'll have our own in the back gardens. I had an herb/flower/vegetable/floral design business for 20 years and closed it some years back. Now in old age, we are 71 and 80 (still healthy and vigorous) we have decided to start growing again and also sharing with passersby. I think kind gestures are a way of connecting and giving back after what our world has been through this winter/spring. Happy growing everyone. Thank you Roots and Refuge for the great videos. Write that book! Update 3/7/22. I lost my prince last August at 82. He is sorely missed but would want me to keep doing everything we loved together. I'm now 73, getting ready to garden in the spring, painting and writing and learning to produce videos!
Your neighbours are lucky to have you! Sounds lovely.
May God Bless you both, my Dear :-). Good people..
I want to be you! Thank you for being a blessing to others.
Isn't it difficult to run after produce growing taller and taller and keep fixing vines everywhere?
Beautiful heart! Best of luck in all your growing!
How many people started a vege garden after watching this video? ❤
My whole garden was transformed after I watched this video
Not all zip ties are UV protected and will break down in the sun. Make sure you purchase ones meant for outdoors. Love this idea!
I must have gotten the wrong ones, they always busting 😁👍
Crucial info. Great Big Thanks!
Aw woww .. thanks 👍🏾
Exactly. Just buy some cheap metal wire instead of more plastic junk for the landfill's sake
I am here to start planning my 2020 apocalypse garden
Same
Hehe girl same

totally
Same
My favorite part is 2:49 with the guys being ‘models’ looking like, “I don’t know how I get myself into these situations.” They’re so sweet! 😻
I hope you’re enjoying your vaca away from UA-cam. Watching as many videos as I can to help the algorithm. We love ya, Jess! ❤
Also, I just adore the relationship you and Miah have. Many years of love and happiness I have got to see through the years of heartbreak, change, and new beginnings. So cool ❤
Anytime I UA-cam search for instructions or info on something I want to add to my garden, a video of yours pops up! 💕💕💕💕
Your hubby is so funny. I love how you both laugh together. Thank goodness for sweet neighbors. Your garden is clever, too.
Hes a MESS but yes its so nice to have a life full of laughter. He sure does keep a smile on my face!
"Probably 80% of our farm is held together by zip ties."
I used to be a zookeeper. 80% of zoos are held together by zip ties, too. They're the greatest invention ever.
Same here in south tx.
I used zip ties to secure chicken wire around my compost frame. Just beware that they DO degrade, get brittle etc. So maybe inspect every couple of years and replace any with problems.
Handy persons secret weapon zip ties and duck tape.
@@EhGardenerGuy You forgot caulk!! LOL.
Avoidable plastic that will never break down.
OMG! Soul Sister, you just gave my garden space a whole new life 💚
Jess, you are bringing LIFE and inspiration to our “stay at home order” days! Thanks to you, we have direction for how to come together as a family and produce something abundant and of value, during a time of such uncertainty. We appreciate you, and feel so blessed to have found you and your videos! You have a beautiful garden, and an incredible heart! Keep shining!! ~Aly
We're using this time in South Texas too grow as well.
This was a great garden . Beautiful laid back and old school . I still come back here and look at it . Your new garden to me is to fancy .
Have you ever planted climbing flowers on one? It would be a great idea to attract bees to help pollinate your veggies. I absolutely love this idea..
Good idea. Thank u
Great idea! I can smell the sweet peas from here!
I would think chicken wire would work for flowers and lighter vegtables like beans. My mind is spinning with ideas!
Wisteria!
She has orange climbing roses over one of the entrances to the garden!
This was my very first video I ever watched , I’ve been following you ever since. Thank you for all you do. I bless you ❤
I don’t have a food garden, want to, but I love my plants. Watching you made me smile. You give off such a vibrant and soothing feeling. Your smile and demeanor is, pure and sweet. You remind me of my cousin, truly beautiful inside and out. Thank you for your vids!
My new veggie garden is being planted and laid out - and yes! I have your arched trellises up and a couple of flat uprights for beans and peas! You're ABSOLUTELY an inspiration! I sat my husband down and showed him your videos and he got busy with the arches and uprights yesterday! I'm SO SO excited! Thank you a thousand times! Much love from South Africa!
Great video. But I use a long auger bit on my drill to drill the holes into the ground for the t posts. A 12 inch hole for the T post takes about 20 minutes including scooping up the loosened soil. I'm a 67 year old woman with back problems so a heavy T Post driver is out of the question. Letting the drill do all the work saves my back, neck and shoulders.
The t-post driver is really hard for me, especially in the raised beds. I don't have the strength to bring it down hard enough when its up above my shoulders like that. Thats a great tip about the drill. I'll keep that in mind if ever I don't have a helping hand around!
Thanks for sharing that drill idea. It's great.
Great idea! I'm 68 - with back problems also & always looking for ways to stay independent. There's plenty of times when no helping hand is available.
Sandy James, what a wonderful idea! I’m a 65 yr old gardener suffering from a degenerative neuro-muscular disease and can’t even pick up the post hole driver 😡 but I’ve no doubt I can handle a drill with auger bit. Thanks.
Glad to help. I have dry, hard dirt so I had to wet the soil first to make it much easier. I had to wet the ground and let it soak in, drill, remove excess dirt, wet again and repeat until you have a 12 inch hole, which is the recommended depth for a 6 ft t post.
I like how you kept it simple.
First time here, stay green.
I just had this random thought of having archway in my backyard and just kinda randomly typed archway and got your video. Now I know how to do archway and got clarity on how it gonna look. Thanks a tonn❤
I constructed 3 of these this spring by myself. It's a challenge but doable and I'm no Olympic athlete! No excuses.....get crackin.......
Me too.
Years ago, I had 3 panels, laid 2 beside each other, zip tied the center and made a long teepee.
Then the other one I thought would be cool as an arch.
I tied one end to a fence, tied rope on the other end and pulled it over till a nice arch. I tied the bottoms together (but about 4' apart) so I could move it anywhere. This was before it was such a big deal!
It must be nice to be naturally beautiful, caring and sharing with a ton of gardening knowledge to boot! I have learned a lot from your videos and appreciate the time you take to make them and share them with us ~ Thanks!
This is the video that was sent to me by my daughter many years ago. Jess hooked me & now a lifetime fan!!! I have seen every video multiple times! Thanks for all the inspiration, Jess!!
I have watched your videos for years now. I came across this one today (which is before I started watching you guys), and I LOL’ed so hard with Jeremiah’s reaction to standing under that cattle panel for you 😂. You guys are so comfortable in front of the camera now. You guys are amazing. You’re growth amazes me. Watching these videos reminds me that although I get frustrated that my garden is small and not ideal, one day, it won’t be. ❤ thank you
❤️❤️❤️
You inspired me, I just built my first cattle panel arch trellis today! Love your channel!
Your garden is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks so much!
@@RootsandRefugeFarm how wide is the aisle between beds? 3 feet?
Re-watching videos! Love love love love those cattle panels😍💖
You are simply ADORABLE, and SO inspiring! Because of you I am ready to start my little homestead! Thank you also, for being so real and upfront about how to save money with all the basic necessities of planting. I absolutely adore your transparency, and your incredible knowledge on so many subjects. I am blessed to have found you and very grateful. May you go super duper (😉) far - above and beyond your wildest dreams. THANK YOU for teaching us so well ❤ And thank you for simply being "you." Blessings to you and your family.
Zip ties are the greatest invention next to Duct tape!!
Velcro is pretty amazing too :)
Zip ties don't last long in the sun. Spending a little time to reinforce with heavy wire is worth the time.
Zip ties are handy for sure, I just wish there were not plastic. Wouldn't cotton rope/string last for a few years too?
What I was thinking...and paper clips maybe 3rd
Yep! And, most “duct tape” is not fit to tape-seal ducts, because it won’t stay stuck with temp and humidity changes.
I've been seeing these but i must say your tutorial was by far the best:_
Thanks so much! I subbed to y'all!
Louisiana Gardening Family I’m watching from Noble Louisiana as well👍
I am dying with your models LOLLLL. I didn't sleep well last night so woke up not feeling well, but then got a very good laugh while watching your video, now I am feeling good. Thank you so much
I had insomnia for a while. I hope you're better now. God bless.
What a wonderful idea & thank you for all the info.
Now I know what to do down the side of my house. We'd planned some raised garden beds down one side next to the pathway. I'll erect arches all the way down. It's lovely & sunny along there.
I'll find a way to secure the arch to the path side by the house.
Many best wishes & greetings from South Australia. 😃❤🖐🇦🇺
Your models are cuties, and your garden is amazing. Great job young lady.
Cattle panels, where have you been all my life?!
:) I love artist, they get this beautiful inspiration!
Thank God for modern communication right:)
Seriously.
Right?! Why is this not more of a thing? Why is this the first I'm learning of it?
New to me 😳
Please help! Looking for cattle panel online, trying not to go to store. What are the dimensions? Are they same as welded wire? When I look on amazon, there’s a lot of deer panel that’s thin, I’m afraid I won’t be able to arch the darn thing. Can someone please link this panel for me? Jess, if you’re free, can you link one on your amazon link please? Thanks a million!
Miss you Jess! It’s may 2024 and I just am missing you 😊
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Thank you!
Omg! It’s such a good idea for university student to grow food during the summer instead of shopping and spending money! Thank you soooooo much!
I have a 2y/o grape vine in the corner of my back yard. I was looking for a trellis for it but they are ridiculously expensive! Plus I wanted it to grow high enough to give me some privacy. I was at a loss until I saw your video. Thank you so much! I know have a TON of ideas! Awesome video!
I bought a simple trellis for my grapevine, and it only lasted a year. I'm going to try this too! She explains how to do it so well
Thank you. I came to this video last year, right after that I got a panel for my garden, it work wonderfully. I am adding another one this year. I love both your personalities and your kind neighbor. You are a breath of fresh air.
Mentioned the cattle panel trellises to my neighbor who wanted to share a garden in my garden. He went out and bought eight hog panels and installed them all together in a line. He liked them so much that he went out the next morning to buy eight more and installed. Two eight panel long trellises! Planted tomatoes at each post, beans, cukes and squash all along. Thank you for the idea!
About a year ago i watched this video and was absolutely inspired to build arched trellises in my raised beds, a year later I'm still using them and haven't seen a better example for them thank you so much for the garden inspiration i will never forget 😌💕
In LOVE with your garden
Me too!
When I found you all I became addicted to your videos. I am an old (85) gardener but always looking for new ways of doing things and your cattle panel arch was my new thing. I waited until my daughter and son in law came and they put it up for me. Now they have two at their place in CT. I have authored three books on Lasagna Gardening and wish I had been able to include this in one of them. Thanks so much.
Hi pretty woman. How are you doing today? And how is the family doing over there??
OMG! You've just given me the perfect solution for my peering perv neighbor. He sits outback and watches me while I'm gardening in my yard. I already have every thing I need. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing this video!
I love the trellises! It's the garden of Eden.
Wax Acres 🌷🌻🌷look up a CHANNEL on UA-cam called Garden Answers there gardens are TRULY beautiful! She shares everything with you, it's REALLY GREAT, best I have seen!🌷🌻🌷The ladies name is Laura that does the SHOW!
So happy that I stumbled upon your channel. I am thinking ahead to projects for the coming year. I love the trellised garden, it's so pretty too! Thank you for your posts. It's lovely to see you and your husband and your neighbor working together.
Me too!
I have seen all your videos and they are the most informative gardening tips I have seen. Keep up the good work.
We finally did it! After watching this video for a couple of years and wanting to do this. We finally did it! 😊 the beans and cucumbers are growing and so close to heading up the trellis. They're amazing! Thank you for your video! ❤😊❤
I use cattle panels for so many different projects around the farm. I sometimes call them handy panels they are solid and inexpensive. Your garden is beautiful thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much, and yes I agree you can't beat the value of cattle panels
We love cattle panels!
Actually, make good use of discarded metal fence wire, too.... have scrounged old wire fencing for many projects over the years.
One place we lived and kept ducks, had a 4’ chain link fence around 1/3 acre. Good start, but needed more to contain poultry.
We used recycled 4’ wide wire fence, bent it into an arch lengthwise, then overlaid that with smaller mesh chicken wire. Zip tied the mesh tunnel to the chain link fence for support, and staked and zip tied the tunnel to the stakes along the edge facing the yard, to prevent predators lifting it. The tunnel must be tall enough for the poultry to fully stand, and wide enough for them to expand their wings. The chicken wire must be small enough to prevent chicks or ducklings escaping.
Our ducks loved running the circumference of the yard..far more room than many so-called “free range” places give. They ate bugs, plants,. We’d let them out into the yard to go after bugs and slugs in spring as bugs and slugs started proliferating.
Then herd them back into their tunnel and nest box shed safety. Did same in fall after seasonal plants were done. In the 10 years keeping them, that was the best and safest containment we did for poultry, which required least effort, least maintenance.
Happy ducks!
I love arched trellis .

Oh Id have fairy lights all over that garden, I would live in it, it's absolutely beautiful work.
In my 20's I used to do a bit of veg gardening. This pandemic has me now in my 50's going back to it so I've just discovered your channel here on UA-cam. I have to say I'm getting great tips but more than that pure joy. Love from Canada zone 5b.
I use the cattle panel arches for my grape vines. Awesome!
Oooo, yum. Good thinking!
I came here to ask this!
How far apart do you space the t-posts? How wide is the space under the arch?
What a great idea! And how could anybody not like her video?!! Beautiful garden! Can't wait to try it for grape vines...🙂
We spaced our panels 57 inches...
I live alone and don't have a pickup to buy the cattle panels, so I bought welded wire 36" wide fencing. It's not nearly as rigid, so I had to reinforce with t-posts under it for support. Just think of all the squash I could buy at the farmers market for all the money I just plunked down to grow my own. :) Crazy.
But just think of the satisfaction! :) Some things are worth more than $$$.
Yes but it'll start paying for itself pretty quickly and you won't have to spend $$ at the farmer's market next year or the year after that, etc. 😊
Sewer this was the first video where I came to discover your sweet sweet ways and His blessings upon your Family and Farm. Thanks for the x2 years of beneficial, clear ideas and fun entertainment...in practical terms ♥️
Oh my goodness guys. Your videos are so charming and enjoyable!! Thank you for doing this video because my daughter has been wanting to plant grapes but I felt so overwhelmed with the idea of building one of these for them to grow. This makes it so much more relatable and doable. I cannot wait to do it on my yard!!
hi I'm very inspired about how much food you're growing of the ground saving lots of space.
Am planning a garden now and you've just taken all my ideas and thrown them out because now I have to have arches! 😄😄 Love this clip!
Love how your growing your own grocery store. One things for sure if times get rough you wont go without. All looks great and thanks for posting.
Super helpful!! Thank you so much for actually building one for us .. mysteries solved! 😀. Thanks to your husband and neighbor too!
Lol! What class of zip Ties?! Look for the ones that are UV-resistant, IF you want them to last more than a couple to few years in weather....especially if exposed to sun. They get brittle. The UV-resistant zip ties are harder to find in the numerous zip tie displays at big box hardware stores, and those do last several years more when exposed to weather.
Love the cattle panel arches!
WOW!! Garden Goals!! Thanks for sharing your Gardening ideas. Your garden is Fantastic!!
I have used cattle panels for pole beans and cucumbers but have to do it by myself, I am 64 lady. Put your posts in ground where you want them then I tie a rope on middle of one end of the panel and holding the rope I walk on the panel to the other end as I pull or bend the first end to me with the rope. now hold on tight or you will be a human sling shot lol. but after you have the ends with in 5 feet or so of each other tie to the side your standing on. you have your arch laying on ground, you can roll that over to your posts fitting the arch upright inside each post and secure to posts with baling wire or zip ties. once its secured in untie your rope! your done!! I love your garden and have learned a lot , thanks so much!
This is so encouraging!!! We paid lots of money for dinky cedar trellis that just got knocked down by wind. Gonna try these babies! Thank youuuu!
This is AMAZING! I can’t wait to build this in my garden!! Love everything you’ve planted, beautiful!
It surprises me that more people dont garden. I live in a area where people have acres and most don’t grow anything. My small garden produces a amazing amount of food. I am going to try and go upwards, thank you for the vids great ideas
Happened by your video today ! You are just adorable! I like how you explain things in detail, easy to understand. Thank you. I have never planted a garden but my husband had a green thumb. He passed away a couple months ago and I wanted to do something to keep me busy and that I can be proud of! Wish me luck!
My condolences 😢 Good luck on your gardening! You can do it 👍👍😊
I love your cattle panel arches
YOU are ADORABLE!!! So glad I found this channel. Thank you!
Me too
GORGEOUS! can't wait to do similar when I get my lakehouse/land.
I have watched this video probably 20 times, still one of my most favorites❤😊
I just want to say you are so real and so genuine... its a pleasure to watch your videos..god bless your family.
When using the auger drill bit to drill holes for t posts as I posted below, I forgot to mention that it works much better if the soil is wet. I soaked the ground, drilled as far as it was wet, then soaked the ground again, before drilling again.
Girl, u r my hero. Great video. I loved the teasing and laughing too.
Couldn't help myslelf...put mine up today. Thank you so much for showing me how I can grow squash and melons in my "compact" dooryard garden. Count me among your ardent new admirers!!
I made two! One at my community garden plot and one in my small backyard. I love them and so does everyone who sees them! 😍Thank you, Jess for inspiring and sharing your knowledge. I am in Virginia Beach, VA- zone 8
Thank you for the information
Wonderful vertical space saver. Love your garden. Thanks for sharing
Thank you greatly. ❤ You all are the best. ❤

And now I know what to do, to make my garden look extra nice with an affordable arched trellis. THANK YOU!
THANKS. Instructions on how to do the arks and trails. You are my hero!!! Blessings😘
Wow
Love from India.
I’m so glad I came across your videos! Gardening goals for sure. Great tips. Thank you for sharing. I’ve been wanting to make an arch and this is way easier than I thought. 💚💚💚
This is the first video I watched of yours nearly 4 years ago now and you inspired my heart so much. It has been such a blessing to watch your channel grow and see the lives you bless and touch. Thank you for always being true to your faith in God.
Hello new friend! I'm very happy to watch your videos. Great video, thank you for sharing. Wishing you and your family always happy, healthy, peaceful and happy. It's a pleasure to accompany you.
"Teamwork makes the Dream Work" !!!! Love this so much!!! You all are to be commended on such productive beauty! Well done!! Thank you! Keep it up!!

Gratitude love you all blessings.
I'm back watching you do the trellis again. Thanks! You all are the best.
Planning my 2021 garden layout with a lot of new raised beds! I love the cattle panel arches! We are going to do before the makeover and after pics! Jess you and Miah are GREAT teachers
I love your garden is very beautiful 👍🏾
Well done
With prices these days 3 years after you posted this, that sure is a better value than buying other stuff!
Such a fun video and so information about the same time. Love seeing the guys in there and of course you beautiful Jess.
Wonderful 🌻
I could see putting a panel at the back of a couple panels and adding a bench or chairs to make a great rest spot all covered with various scented vines.
Outstanding! I will d these everywhere in my garden next season.
Thanks for sharing your trellis idea! We were fixen to go to a lot of trouble making some and you saved the day! My husband and I are both pushing 80 years of age and we love doing things the easier way
Your peacock tattoo is lit. Garden is great too!
