Happy Friday we just love watching you both on a the farm and have watch most of your videos what we don’t get is you have really great content in your videos yet your 18500 subscribers is in our view very low with effort you put in compared to other Portugal 🇵🇹 CZcamsrs you both try so hard in put a lot of content into your videos and we both really enjoy your videos and look forward to watching you both have a great weekend 😊😊😊
Your kitchen is so beautiful and clean! Ready to cook your amazing food! I look forward to Fridays!
I am very impressed with Andrea's bravery and expert beekeeping skills!
My little dog was sleeping on the bed when all of a sudden she jumped up looking around when the Bee's started buzzing. Lol.
Great getting the bees, hopefully you will get some lovely honey, my sister is a beekeeper and she got award winning honey in Sussex, Uk. See you next time xxx
The birds, the bees, the sun, the flowers and those sweet piggies! Heaven!😍🇨🇦
Another fab video, thank you ❤
My top handyman, you’re getting younger on a daily basis! So nice to see you both happy with your achievements! God bless you both.
Love swede. I do a carrot and swede mash with nutmeg, lots of butter and lots of pepper. Yum! In Canada it's called Rutabaga.
@SuperToronto416 - In New England we called the purple top ones turnips and the bigger brownish ones rutabagas. The rutabagas were my favourites because they are sweeter and don't have that sort of bitter "bite" that turnips have.
Jasmine looks beautiful. Happy weekend.
It is just amazing how much you two have accomplished since moving there. You should be so proud.
Great rehousing the bees, lovely honey later. Have great week folks😊
Growing up on the Island of Newfoundland with boiled Jiggs Dinner yellow turnip is necessary, as is mashed turnip with lots of butter, cannot make do without it especially when making yellow split pea soup with dumplings. In Canada call the brownish yellowish one’s turnip but are properly called rutabagas, you call them Swede others say Russian turnip, Rutabaga, Swede, Swedish turnip. or yellow turnip. The smaller white and purple ones are turnips. In terms of their flavour, rutabagas are sweeter & hold their golden colour, whereas turnips have a slightly more radish flavour. Yellow turnip as we call it is necessary with Sunday dinner. Love your vlogs, so much of your cooking I see in the Nfld dishes but then we were under England. until 1947, when we went with Canada, I was a British Subject for 7 years. Love your bee keeper's suit, Andreafrom ON Canada
Happy your swarm has the young queen. I can honestly say if those bees came to my house, I would not open the door. Andrea is fearless.
Your homestead is beautiful!!!Nick and Andrea well done!!!❤❤❤ 🇬🇷 🇬🇷
Just another lovely day on the farm. What an ungodly number of bees! Those little piggies are getting big. Will you be selling them? Feel better soon, Nick.🙂👍👍🇨🇦
You did a great job with the bees Andrea.I surely dont know what to do when I see a swarm bees coming to stay in my barn.
Hope Nick is feeling better. I love your property - the flowers, plants, animals, pets, bees, etc... Turnips look delicious! Thank you for sharing such interesting video! 👍🥰👍
mashed turnip mmmmmmmmmm
Andrea, your garden is ✔️👏. The Swedes will be so tasty. I love rutabaga’s and the smaller white turnip. Nick, so happy you had a good visit to the UK.❤
Swedes is not the same as turnips as you know. Try to use a little sweetener, sugar or syrup and a lot of butter and bake them in the oven it will bring the taste to another level. I am from Sweden and love to grow and eat them.
Great work Andrea and Nick, good to doing the swarm of bees have a queen and good to see your back doing bee keeping.yummy honey on the horizon 😀
Family visiting, trip to UK, working with bees, great food...... Nick and Andrea, you are an inspiration!
Please keep sharing your life with us. We look forward to your videos. Have a nice weekend.
Great news with the swarm! Nick, take care of yourself.
Wowww u fixed the stove beautiful Nick. It will look nice with the tiles covering the bottom.😊
A new swarm is always a welcome event.
I wintered three beehives, unfortunately none of them survived. One was hit by a fallen tree. Another lost the roof during a blizzard.
I expect to get a new colony in about a weeks time. Looking forward to that❤
As a boy I would eat slices of raw seede. It can be almost apple like.
Andrea did an amazing job braving the swarm and then moving the hive 👏 👏 Your homestead is looking so beautiful with everything in bloom, and all your veggies😊 Those piglets have grown so quickly, still very cute😂❤
Mashed potato, mashed swede , proper sausages, with onion gravy , lush from my childhood sixties, Black Country real food.😊
A different beginning this week. I had to double check it was your channel ! Happy Friday x
😜
Hi, Andrea and Nick. Nice to see you with bees again. I loved your opening music and the plants.❤️❤️
We call those rutabagas in the US , and yes they are so delicious.
Talking my language ....mashed swede,proper job Behs 'n' Gurls. nice to see a hassle free journey home for you Nick ( or so assume). Nice kob with the bees Ange.
Ah...that was a bit morbid: "We got a tray full of lovely, sliced-up Swedes"😂🤣I've never heard of that name for turnips. Cheers from Sweden💛💙
Lovely to see the bees and of course you both ❤❤
Nice that you have bee's again
Ribeye steaks on my favorite yum yum❤❤❤❤❤
Love your videos, we mash our turnip with mash potatoes it seems to blend up nicer, and yes the same turnip you are using,it's what we did in nova Scotia!
Overall an great video. Ange you did a wonderful job with the bees.
Wow, guys! Gorgeous, tranquil, and peaceful open! Love it 😍
Haha, Ang, were you tagged by Dad Saunders to be the next relay runner on the stationary elliptical? 😄 That was some job you did corraling and moving your 🐝guests, wishing you all the very best❣
Very enriching trip to Cornwall, Nick. Beautiful meal Matthew and Shona laid out. You got to prune their olive, and load up with more of your builders wares to take home. And swedes, too!
The jasmine is very happy. I've longed to see vines climb your courtyard frame. 😊
😄 That b&w piglet looks ready for taekwondo training, huh? Unexpected ninja move at the trough!
Your veg are coming on really well. Yes, please get better, and enjoy Sandra & Raymond❤❣
I've taught a lot of children and adultsbut never piglets🤣🤣
That wee ninja piglet has potential, i think so 😊
Andrea you were so brave and clever moving that intimidating bee swarm! Oh my gosh!!! They wanted you as home❤
Bedankt
Das lief 🙂
Oh gosh I'm still adoring forever those darling pigglets, what a joy and amusement right now!❤ Cindy needs to share😂
Pausing, funny story here, grew up in Nova Scotia Canada loving turnip the size of a small football, very same color and sweetest as you have there, then moved to Nevada and the turnip grow the size of a very small not even baseball size. Parents come from Nova Scotia to visit, and laugh at the size of Nevada turnips😭!😂 I've tried several times to grow them here, and nothing ever sprouts😭
I'm surprised that you didn't have your vehicle filled to the brim with bits and bobs, and treats!!
I was on the weight limit
@@projectportugal that's a bummer! Looks like you had a wonderful time!
It was so obliging of the bees to move into the hive. I can remember my father and uncle collecting swarms from some difficult places.
Thought your meant swarms of Swedish visitors,. Thats a turnip of the events😂😂
😄
Crazy how much bees there where
Yikes so many bees
mash turnip with carrots and put some pepper and salt that tast good 😊
The beginning of this video was excellent.
your right swede is yum-a very underated vege. dutch loveit- Imixit with carrot & pot ato its deliscious with some sort of grav
For many days I binged from the first episode to the last.
It’s was so very entertaining. Learned a lot, enjoyed the cooking and baking, the building skills and the atmosphere you both are creating.
I love the pictures and music at the end, not a big fan of to much music and artistic videography throughout the video that you implemented in the last few videos.
I love your hands on video style.
I wish you would gain a lot more viewers, you really deserve it.
Thanks you for being so persistent and creating every week beautiful videos for us!
Amazing intelligent bees, they know where to find you!
The Bees were really interesting...
Thank you for the warning. There would be no way I would have done what you did with the bees. I would have died on the spot. Absolutely terrified of bees. Wish them no harm. I just do not want to be around them.
I think Spring has finally made a permanent arrival in Portugal! How lovely!
Congratulation on the new hive. How exactly do you convince bees to move on? A swarm looks like a scary disaster movie. Much better than hornets.
Garden is looking super dooper! Get well!
Well done with the bees Andrea. I do carrot and swede mash...... yummy with a knob of butter. Nice to see the flowers all blooming. Spring is really blooming. The piglets are adorable.
I love mashed swede❤
Proper pasties my lover 😍
Estou feliz com o seu regresso . Andrea saiu-se bem enquanto estave no Reino Unido mas o senhor Nick faz falta. Ainda bem que as abelhas regressaram espero que tenham muito mel. A propriedade está linda cheia de flores maravilhosas chegou a primavera que bom.
Well came🫶🫶
Thank you very much 🇬🇧🇬🇧🥰

In the US, those"Swedes" are called rutabagas. Turnips are the smaller white ones with purple tops. No one calls either of them swedes. Neither are very popular.
Beeing from Sweden the title was a bit missleading for me, tought you had visitors from Sweden ))
Turnips or neeps in Scotland too, up the Celts!
Love watching you guys always a mixture 😊
😊 thank you
Hello you two!! Lovely that you got bees again. But where are the goats??
We moved the goats further down the land in a previous video
Miss seeing them on CZcams
❤❤❤❤❤❤
If the queen bee is in the garage some where they not just go you got to find the Queen.
One of the things that swarms are great at is drawing new comb ...I would have put at least 6 new frames in there especially as the queen is not laying yet. I didnt get a great look at the frames but it did look as though there were a few old capped cells among them and they are obviously sources of disease. You can also place a couple of your old hives out where you would actually like them to be with one frame of old comb (as an attractant) and new frames in case there are secondary swarms from wherever your bees came from. I love a swarm. I would leave your hive for at least a week now just in case it is a new queen as she might still go on mating flights. Old queens do "slim down" a bit before they swarm. If you spot Asian hornets report them and the authorities will send someone to find and get rid of the nest.
Thanks for the advice👍
We also call them turnips in Ireland
You are a great woman Andrea. I would never have the courage to move the Bees on my own.
funny to see you need to bring some food from UK. Im from Latvia and every time I come back to USA I bring FOOD. 1/2 of my suitcse is filled with food my kids and I love
Maybe make some more shorts so more people can find you 😉
great video x
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, Wow good work new hife maybe put some more empty hifes ready for new colonies of bee's just a idea 💡, piggies look healthy and happy 😊.
Good to see the bees back along with all the veg that are growing strong:)
Oh they're really mad 😅
😊
as a carnivore - I want the steak - yummi
Your Sweets look like our Southern Rutabeggers! Shirley from north Florida (bt Alabama)❣❣❣
They are rutabagas in US Swedes in UK
Genuine question. Why don't you put the suede into bags and then freeze them? Surely that would remove the extra step?
They stick together much more
Hi to you both, hey Ang last year you planted a lot of tulips, did they come up and flower?🌹
Yes and yes
40,000? ... counted about 6,000 in the hive. Plus maybe the ones that are out looking for food during the inspection, which is significantly lesser bees.
Thanks for counting, maybe we were a bit ambitious
@projectportugal
Since half of the bees will probably die within the next two weeks, it would be interesting to see how much capped brood there is by then...
@projectportugal Which beehive do you use: Lusitana, Reversible or Langstroth?
Thank you I've learned a lot about turn ups and bees. Please show us when you make that favourite dish. I swarm moved into my worm compost tea plastic box. Should I first leave them there? Half of the lid of the box are already full of juicy golden honey. It is the start of winter here now in the south of the world. I wish you had to move the hive into the new box that I could see how it is done? Do one need to guide/ catch/ direct the queen into the new box? I thought of purchasing a hive box like that and put it next to the worm box. How do I get the bees to move into the bee hive box? I hope it's not too much of an effort for you to guide me? Thank you if possible. That "braai" was in real South African way except there was no ash to give that meat a distinct African flavour.....Hehe! Best wishes.
You are probably better off asking somebody local
I see you have one of those battery operated pruners what brand is it and where do I get it I have very weak hands
They are called Bluebird, and are available most agricultural shops here
Rutabagas = Swedes 🙂
Nick how do you select which piglets will be for meat? Do you try and be less affectionate to those ones so that it’s easier to butcher them?
We care for our animals a great deal, but I wouldn't say affectionate is a word we would use. A bit like having your grandma or mother in a care home the way you feel for them and the people that care for them is completely different
@@projectportugal thanks for answering Nick. You do look after your animals very well. IMO you go that extra mile, talking to them, scratching them under the chin. You obviously get such pleasure from them, I wondered if it made it harder when it came to butchering them?
@@ChristineKelly1000 it's never easy to be honest, but it's a life we have chosen and feel it's the best way for the animals you can't keep everything 😁
@@projectportugal thanks for being honest. As a meat eater myself, I’m sure if I thought about the animals I was eating I’d be vegetarian tomorrow.
What do you use to kill ants borax and what else then put that on a leaf
Golden syrup
Isso no norte de portugal em trás os montés chamam rabas o nabo não é igual
