The two shows I watch French Farmhouse Diaries and Domaine Sauvage, two couples leading the good life in France, A love of mini diggers and a love of the Land. One family raised and one starting and learning. The decorated shells are outstanding, how cleaver, upcycled and thoughtful of what we do today for the following generations. A lot to be learned Folks - I can't wait for the Garden wood work from Shelters, to seeding, to Staking to resting on a bench.
Loving the beginning setups - getting to see the beauty of the whole property and the whole project - it kicks start the mind. Your crafts - how unique and fitting the region and your property - it's a hook set in this fish.
Glad to think your goat willows have bees to love them and people who know about trees to care for them now. Loving Chessie in her winter white coat and your circular woodpiles, made to keep her safe. And your compost pile is rocking, the best one on the internet.
I remember catweasel and touch wood. Great program. Love the shells Tracey perhaps sell with small bag of lavender as potpourri dish and scallops as a scented candle stand. ❤
What an enjoyable video you had today. Your videos on Sunday make my day a nice adventure. Those oyster shells look divine. I like the colors. Very glad you saved the toad. In my area Oklahoma City, OK USA🇺🇸I haven’t seen a toad in many years. The fertilizer placed on the yards kill the toads. I had many toads at one time. . But, when they would travel to neighboring yards they died from the fertilizer because it would burn their skin. I just came in from outside. I had been planting all kinds of fall bulbs for spring. Thank you for explaining what you are doing. I like learning. I always watch your show two times. The second time I write my message to you. Your introduction in filming your property was beautiful. So many beautiful colorful trees and improvements you have made. I hope you have a nice week. Take care, Jan Dolph🐸💙🐸💙🐸
Thank you so much for watching Jan and for sharing your story we always love to hear about peoples experiences and we both love being outside especially when it feels like a spring day. Thank you for your wonderful comment and we hope you have a good week.🥰🙏🏻
You do such lovely work, Tracy. I love having the little reminder of my time in France. I can still smell the sunshine and with your sachets I have the fragrance of the lavender growing in the fields,
Love the Shells Tracy! Can't wait to see the new fruit garden. You guys work so hard. Tracy your pointing work is fabulous, you are a professional for sure
Always enjoy your content, thanks for sharing. Will try better to watch when you post, sorry I lag sometimes. Will do better now on. Sincerely in San Diego California
I for one truly enjoy watching all that Tracy and budo accomplish with all your efforts. Thank you for making these video's and showing us out in you tube world what it takes to achieve your dreams. 😊
Another great update - I am really looking forward to learning how to work with the willow and how to Build the PolyTunnel - you know it will be stella.
what are you doing w/ drainage for the area? Considering the amount of rain you guys got this year, wondering how you were taking it away from the house...eager to watch any digger action.🙂
Nice to see you working on the garden. Can’t wait to see you produce next year and Tracey being able to cook it in the new kitchen. It’s getting closer ❤️
Bonjour Tracy and Budo, what a hell of a storm, well done on the cleanup, you have had all four seasons in a weeks' time. You two are amazing, talking it all in stride. Thank you for saving the toad, I haven't seen many around where I am for decades now. Love from N.Y.
It’s scary what happening to the weather all over the world. Here in Seguin Ontario, three hours north of Toronto, We got 200 mm of snow in a matter of two days. Lots of snow on the trees, lots of trees down and so there was a lot of power outages. electricity is back on now cross your fingers it stays on. Love the projects that you’re doing and looking forward to watching more.
It is very scary it has been a very strange year as far as the weather is concerned , we had the same here quite a bit if damage in neighbouring towns from the snow. Have a great week and thank you for watching 🙏🏻🥰xx
Suckers tend to be volunteer shoots from the root systems, but willow are usually referred to as coppice shoots because the new growth comes from the main stool or stump. Goat willow come back lovely and strong and the pussies/catkins are loved by the bees in early spring. Great job there mate
Greetings once again, Budo & Tracey. I'm a bit late on this video, but with our Thanksgiving and having one of our son's and his family here from Colorado and daughter and oldest grandson here I was busy. Of course not as busy as you two keep on your farm. Loved the video as I do all of them. Have a great week.😊
im still going through all those that uploaded yesterday that I have subscribed to. So maybe change the day as loads do Sunday evening to get more people viewing at the same time? Just an idea. The frog out of Catweazle, remember having a toy one made by Bendy Toys and you could put it in the bath and it squirted water. Their factory was just up the other end of my road as a child
Love the shells 🥰 sorry I’m unable to watch when you load your vlog 😢 I try my best to get to watching when I’m able. Sometimes I watch you twice 🤞 hope I help.
hi we still have the pocket 2 mate but we never use it now as its such a strain to see the little screen we are now using our i phone X r and Tracy's I phone 12 we have just been offered a I Phone 16 pro max at a good price which we are considering which should help us take the filming up a level buddy
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries oh very nice mate, a phone certainly helps with the big screen. I’m still grinding with iPhone 7 but the battery is so weak these days like my back😂
Hi Zac you are very observant in your observation but you are wrong once again. When you see the next video put your notification on then you won’t miss it and if you did cancel your subscription as you said you was going to ? maybe think about subscribing again Happy new year 🥳
Hello Zarine thank you for your comment. We are not we are having time off for the Christmas period we have had a full on year , filming for television and doing the renovation and other activities like enjoying our family coming to France 🇫🇷 we will be back next year so don’t forget to put your notifications on so you will know when the video is on UA-cam Merry Christmas 🤶🎄🎅
I have to say that Tracey's pointing on the back of the house looks fabulous.

Funny, i thought the same. I've left a message on the Domaine Sauvage to point people here.
Left a msg on Domaine Sauvage and let their folks know that we are here 😊
It makes a huge difference where Tracey has been pointing. It lights up the whole area where she has worked and makes the stone look beautiful.
Thank you 🥰🙏🏻it was hard work but l really enjoyed pointing the back of the house and next year it is in my list to finish it
Loving the beginning setups - getting to see the beauty of the whole property and the whole project - it kicks start the mind.

Suckers tend to be volunteer shoots from the root systems, but willow are usually referred to as coppice shoots because the new growth comes from the main stool or stump.
Goat willow come back lovely and strong and the pussies/catkins are loved by the bees in early spring.
Great job there mate
yes your right mate but we have had some really nice wood from it that will go for the wood burners in a couple of years
@ it burns lovely and hot
Greetings once again, Budo & Tracey. I'm a bit late on this video, but with our Thanksgiving and having one of our son's and his family here from Colorado and daughter and oldest grandson here I was busy. Of course not as busy as you two keep on your farm. Loved the video as I do all of them. Have a great week.😊
Happy holidays! Sue hope you had fun with your family and thank you for watching 🙏😍xx
you are doing great, well done👍
Thank you Charlotte 😊 x
Ayup Budo good to see the safety trousers going on mate.
I had to mate as the TV company wouldn't film lol but its good practice any way
@ haha trust you
im still going through all those that uploaded yesterday that I have subscribed to. So maybe change the day as loads do Sunday evening to get more people viewing at the same time? Just an idea.

Well done!
Thank you for watching 🙏🏻🥰
Evening looking forward to the new vlog
We hope you enjoyed thank you for watching 😍🙏
Love toads, we get them in the woodland
Nice to see them Daren
Love the shells 🥰 sorry I’m unable to watch when you load your vlog 😢 I try my best to get to watching when I’m able. Sometimes I watch you twice 🤞 hope I help.
Thank you Krisant and no worries when you ☺

Thank you 🙏🤩
How many days were you without power and water?
Hi Sue on the 4th day the power was back on and stayed n without further power cuts 🥰🙏🏻
Norm with the barn and the kitchen
Thank you for watching 🥰🙏🏻
How about putting out some “workshop Wednesday” videos! 🙂
Hi buddy it’s hard enough doing one video a week with no gain and a slow growing channel as much as I would love to offer that buddy
@ I take it that means my next suggestion for tool Tuesday’s would be a no go as well 😆
What happened to the pocket 2 camera?
hi we still have the pocket 2 mate but we never use it now as its such a strain to see the little screen
we are now using our i phone X r and Tracy's I phone 12 we have just been offered a I Phone 16 pro max at a good price which we are considering which should help us take the filming up a level buddy
@@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries oh very nice mate, a phone certainly helps with the big screen.
I’m still grinding with iPhone 7 but the battery is so weak these days like my back😂
I’m confused about your new “music.” Why the change? 😢
Hi Libby we are mixing and matching the music to suit the videos we have had lots of feed back that people are loving it 😀 so happy days yes
Why so silent? Are you continuing with UA-cam?
Hi Zac you are very observant in your observation but you are wrong once again. When you see the next video put your notification on then you won’t miss it and if you did cancel your subscription as you said you was going to ? maybe think about subscribing again Happy new year 🥳
A lack of content in the last month.Are you moving away from youtube.?
