HOW I TRAP AND ELIMINATE GOPHERS FROM MY GARDEN
Watch my Foolproof SUPER EASY method to trap gophers and keep these pesky critters and ground squirrels out of your garden.
Check out the Gopher Hawk Here: amzn.to/3Yj4cjk
We love this method for trapping and ridding gophers from our flower farm. Gophers congregate and tunnel underground, snacking on the roots of our plants making them enemy number one on the flower farm. We prefer to use organic, safe methods for pest control whenever possible as we have children and pets around. The gopher hawk is truly the answer here and has saved our plants and stopped quite the infestation of little pocket gophers.
No poisons, humane and quick, HIGHLY effective. But there is a trick- so watch the video to see how we set our traps!

❤ Oh i love it. I went and cut some little flowers and put them in my bathroom... it did clean it up! Yay😊
Good for you! It's amazing that even just a couple stems make a difference!
Very cool flower. Where do you get the seed for this? I've never heard of it before.
It's one of our favorites. I believe I originally started this perennial from proven winners, though search "filipendula" and hopefully a local nursery has it. The stages of bloom for this one make is a beautiful winner in a cut flower garden!

What raspberries varieties do you use? The ones we have all have thorns.
Unfortunately, I do not have that information. It is a raspberry that was on the place that I bought and I just kept digging it up and propagating it that way. But any thornless raspberry works and that is what you are looking for, thornless.
He in the way no say it ain't so 😂😂😂
Is she part cat?
a woman 'out-standing in her field!"
Thanks for the laugh! We really enjoyed this 🤭
that's my mom! HIIIIIIIIIIIIII!
This was so encouraging. I love your market routine- anyone could make this work! I really connected with “this isn’t my hobby, this is a business. So sell those flowers!” A good reminder. I’m inspired now. “Let’s grow our markets!”
I loved this episode. I’m homeschooling as well and home birth too. You’re inspiring me to maybe build a tiny stand on my city lot and start that local marketplace.
Yes yes I need chicks please thank you.
Oh... so excited about this!
I hope you choose to save some seed for yourself!

This was wonderful! Not overwhelming at all. Easy good information. Your So fun to listen to I feel like Im sitting there with you. So excited for the Next episode!
So sweet. I Need
Yes, it’s possible! I use a 5 shelf metal rack with wheels and utilize the shelves AND the lights. The vertical shelves allow for many more seedlings and save space. You can get A LOT in a 4’x2’ space. Let’s break this down: if you start 20 trays, and you’re using 200’s, that’s 4,000 seedlings. Seriously! This became essential as I grew so many seedlings. The lights keep them warm just as well as heat mats. As soon as the seeds have sprouted I move them under the lights, and I’ll start the second round of seeds. This method has worked so well, allows me to grow in a smaller space, and is more economical- saving the initial investment of heat mats as well as reducing the electrical bill.
What are your favorite varieties?
Double click white knight and cupcake blush are two of my favorites 😊
Growing our own magic growing our future!
I can’t wait to see you accomplish this! The future is bright. Just start ❤️✨
Wow! I am just so excited to go on this journey with you. So excited to hear how to mantain balance thats my biggest fear. ❤
It's easy to get out of control when you start having success. It can really be satisfying. to and dream of all that is possible. Start with one adventure (market), fine-tune it, and then evaluate. How does it feel? How is it working into your life?
Hoping to make my little homestead magical like this.
I don’t just garden for the product but I garden mainly for the fun and adventure built into the daily tasks. Everyday I’ll do something new with my front yard garden. Got rid of the grass when I moved in and then have planted 30+ fruit trees, dug a turtle/koi pond and have not started to plan out the walkways around everything. Can’t wait for 2025!! Should be the year of success with the everything all grown and strong rooted
That sounds so beautiful! Cheers to 2025 and building strong roots for a great foundation.
So you can get 6 stems in the first flush of blooms just by pinching the first bloom? Getting to see both examples at the same time was helpful.
Yes- pinching makes a huge difference and increases production quickly in cut and come again crops.
