In between everyone telling you what you should and shouldn’t do I hope you know how appreciated you are for sharing all of this information. Thank you so much!!
Mandy Wilbourn Amen!! She helps to make my weeks so fun!
People are not telling her what to do. Just offering suggestions
Nancy Farkas there are sites that actually do nothing but complain about her and other you tubers and tell her what she should be doing. Because apparently perfect people are shy I guess? I never see them on CZcams
It’s good to plant the seeds first - your plants can grow while you unpack 😉
YESSSSSSSSSS!
]]p]p]]]
Exactly!!!
My favorite Jamerill quotes of the day.
"We know other humans who like to eat as well."
"There you go potatoes, have fun being a potato."
😂😂😂 lol if you’ve ever watched Parks & Rec Chris says something similar. He’s trying to be encouraging & says “Way to be Duck!” to a duck swimming in a pond 😆
She has the best quotes! 🤣❤ Love you, Jamerril!
"Foot in the bucket kinda day."
A foot in a bucket kind of day lol
Advance blessings 💋Love your attitude 🥰
Jamerille, you have all winter to unpack. The spring/summer time is for outdoors work like gardening. Feeding your family is more a priority than unpacking. That will get done sooner or later. And, wintertime is the best time to unpack and set up the home. You are doing a great job homesteading. I enjoyed the vlog.
Totally agree!
A 1 hour video? Thank you for blessing us this morning 😩💚💚
My thoughts exactly!
I have no idea why I, a mother for a one 5 year old girl in Finland, am so in to your videos! 👍
Something in your personality makes my heart smile.
Greetings from Finland and blessings to You and your family!❤
I love her videos too!
I'm from Australia 😁
I don't have any children but I find her life fascinating....the grocery hauls, the whole thing!
From Finland, too!
i absolutely LOVE when you talk to your girlfriends! lol the chickens are my favorite hands down especially when you say "uh huh i hear you girlfriend uh huh" oh it warms my heart!
You're all outside so much in the good weather, inside can wait. Get the seeds growing, pool installed, wet days will come and unpacking can happen . You've got this mumma 🤩😍😎
Hey ,it's sheryn from New Zealand,just wanted to let u no that one of our aunties used to plant paddocks of potatos, and to keep them she had a smallish shed and she would lay straw or bracken lay a layer of harvested potatos,another layer of straw and another layer of potatos,etc,etc,and that's how she kept them,and they would last all winter or summer depending when u plant.they were for the extended family to use for cooking,we would just go and get a pot full whenever we wanted potato's for our meal,hope this helps u on ur storage of ur potato's,love and blessings from my family to urs.
Am I the only one that just lights up when Jamerrill talks to her hen “girlfriends”?
Lynette Young no, I love it 😆 🐓 🐓 🐓
Nope, so do I!
Getting your seeds in is more important than unpacking. They need to be in there to get them started. You are such a great and hardworking woman. Save unpacking for a rainy day
If you’re not missing what you haven’t unpacked, meh, who cares. Besides, when it rains, you’ll have something to do (not that you lack for things to do 😆).
Hello there sweet family 🤗 this just makes my day complete! I am soooooooooo enjoying coming along this homesteading adventure with all of you
What a great person and mother love to hear from her every day
You know what you should do is have the kids bring up 4 boxes every day. Unpack them first, then you can go about your day. Then you are getting things unpacked and doing what you want to do.Then when you get to the bags- do 4 bags. When you finally just have some random stuff have all the kids and you grab and go on the stuff until "poof" it's all gone. "Have your cake and eat it too!" Always open to trying new things in the garden. That keeps it fun!
My thoughts exactly❣️ How do you eat an elephant?!?! One bite at a time🤗😉. The garden is looking fantastic Jamerill. Just a quick and humble suggestion here - sew your marigolds in pots now, then they should be big enough in a couple or three weeks to plant around your tomatoes to help deter pests like aphids and such. Basil is another great companion plant for tomatoes. Plant the marigolds and basil next to the tomato plant, they don’t need to be in a row like the tomatoes. Also, I love the cattle panels for my tomatoes also - use zip ties to attach your plants to the panels, works great. I always plant zinnias and cosmos in my garden also. They attract the pollinators like a magnet all season long, plus they make beautiful cut summer bouquets for the home. Check out Danny & Wanda @ Deep South Homestead, lots of sage gardening advice there. I enjoy your videos so much, thank you for all you do❣️🥰
This is actually how I get a lot of chores done around my house. I had a whole mess of weeds and I just weed five minutes today. Before not too long all the weeding is done!
You can always finish unpacking this winter when outside projects slow down. This kind of life is so dependent on seasons. You will do well because of your attitude to just roll with it! 😁
I’m a professional packer and unpacker (aka my husband is military and we move often 😂) I can unpack my entire house and get rid of all boxes to recycling in about 24 hours lol
But I don’t have a farm to take care of 😂
Come help me move next month lol 😄
Grrr. Sharon you are my new Everyday hero !!! 💖
Sharon wow..quite a skill
I’m dreading packing up my house to move next month 😂
I love how you just jump in with both feet. I wouldnt be that brave or have the energy but im so impressed!
Just what I needed this morning! A new Jamerrill video!!!!
Oh, a blast from the past. I learned of Ruth Stout when I had a farm in the ‘70s and faithfully reading Organic Gardening. I still do the Ruth Stout method, I toss my veggie kitchen scraps on the ground. They mulch and feed the soil. Don’t worry about weed seeds in the straw. If they grow, they’ll be super easy to pull up and just lay them on top of the mulch. Fun fact: Ruth is the sister of mystery writer Rex Stout.
My husband has learned to recognize your voice 😂 I was watching this video while doing some kitchen work and he was like is that the lady who cooks for a lot of kids and has the chickens? Yes dear, it was 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Jamerrill putting out a video during the day, I can't believe. Also love long vlogs.
The weed barrier prevents weeds, keeps in moisture and helps with a rich soil. holes cut for the plants. Justin Rhodes has a great channel to learn many of the things you need and bri has a great many vids about milking goats and cows.
Hi!! Jamerril, you really crack me up. I think you're so funny. You have a wonderful garden. Beautiful family and home. I absolutely love to watch you do whatever. I think you're great. 👍🏽🌼😃💕🥰❣
The boxes will be there when you find the time to unpack. However, this is the season to plant so you will be reaping your harvest before you know it! Enjoyed your video! God bless you and your family.
I Garden the same way. It’s just always been instinctual and roll on attitude. I am the type of person who goes for it with faith and fun just like you do. Blessings
Jamerrill, you are an inspiration. Have a Blessed Day 🙏👸♥️
Youre authenticity and enthusiasm are infectious. Love watching your episodes. I am an atheist mother of one living in the center of NYC who can't even keep a house plant alive, but somehow have you as a friend in my head. Really enjoying the homesteading but also want an update on the snakes. Keep being you and keep sharing, so glad you're getting sponsors too, you deserve the income.
“We know other humans who like to eat as well” 😆😆 classic line!!!
You are so fun to watch😊love your family! Thanks so much for sharing your life, I don't know how you do it all even though I see you do it every vlog😂take care😘
Just love Jamerrill so much.... how she even talks to the hen...❤️
I LOVE morning glories too! Love the blue. What a trooper you are!! Wow! Go, Girl! The unpacking will still be there when you are done with your outside work. That stuff won't wait. Thanks for sharing!
Girl, we have a 24' x 54' above ground and it's fabulous! We also have a deck built (21' x 12') and hoping to get a roof on that. That's my vacation now, at 61! Four kids and 9 grandkids! Woo Hoo!
I love in the Los Angeles area. Don’t have kids. I live with my partner. I only cook for him and myself. Shop for the week due to lack of space. Ive killed many cacti. Man, I am addicted to your videos.
LOL
I was mentioning to someone else that it's just my hubby and me and we also don't have kids (been married 28 years though) and I love watching these videos...
I used to be known as the person who was able to kill an artificial plant! I have since done well with container gardening....there is hope sometimes...haha!
WHAT do you love in the Los Angeles area? {The verb is missing in that sentence.}
If you’re killing cacti, then that means you’re overwatering them.
Only water them once every two or three months (or whenever the weather apps say that it rained in Phoenix, AZ, (generally speaking that’s in November, July, & August) and let the water totally drain out the bottom, so there is no “standing” water in their root zone.)
And keep the (potted?) cacti in full sun.
Do not let it rain on them.
Donna Norris It seems pretty obvious to me that the lady made a typo and meant to type “live” 🙄
I have also killed many cacti and its not because I over water them its because I forget about them and don't water them at all lol. Yet people keep giving me cacti
I like that Jamerrill.And I am adopting that phrase,”productive procrastination.”That sure releases the heavy heart and guilt I have felt for not accomplishing my to do list in order.🤣😂Thank you again for always bringing positivity to my life.Love ya’ gal.God bless you.🥰🌹🙏
Oh my goodness!!! Benjamin is getting so big!!! So happy to see your kids getting involved with the whole idea of homesteading. They are learning valuable life lessons that will stay with them forever! 😉🌱🌻🥔🌞🐐🐔
When you have a bunch of kids? Pools are Always worth it! Can’t wait to see it!
I love your videos and beautiful family. Don't worry , you will get unpacked. Just take it day by day and breath. It will all happen in it's time. Prayers and blessing to your loving family🙏💜😘
I can’t be the only one to love when you upload long videos right?
No! Same here. I just hopped on to upload mine and saw this and couldn't get off and go to bed without watching! It's almost 11pm here. 🤗
I take her on on a walk with me
I enjoy it so much
"You are being heard" said Jamerill to a chicken 😂😂
Jamerrill - I've only been watching you a short time but boy do you make my heart happy! Thanks for all the things
I love how you talk to your chickens, cracks me up every time 😂
"Someday" it will be a rainy day and you will get to those boxes 😉 And if not, it will still be okey 🙌 Enjoy and take care!
You are doing an awesome job at it all.
Don't worry about unpacking, it will happen. Keep enjoying those beautiful days outside. We just started getting nice weather. I'm outside with my boys as much as we can be. It feels great!
Don’t worry Jammerill, you have your priorities straight.
Loved this video.
Love watching your homestead progress! Honestly, love watching anything you post! 🥰🥰🥰
Your family and kids are sweet
Little Benny is growing up
Love your heart! Your excitement for your garden and outside projects is palpable. You always make me smile.
You are so smart about figuring out about what works for you. You are perfect! I enjoy your channel so much!!
I grew up with a pool. And we currently live in a apartment. I miss the pool. So cooling and fun. And good exercise.
I got the 35 lb fabric bags and I started potatoes in them in my backyard, so far they work great! Thanks for your earlier suggestion.
It is so wonderful to see your beautiful green land and garden! I am not much of a gardener, but I think that when a garden needs work it needs work. If you keep a record or diary of all your different garden methods for potatoes, etc, you will have a better idea of what works with your garden area. Unpacking can always be put off to an "inside" or rainy day. As long as you have clothes to wear and enough items for daily life you are doing ok. You are really going to enjoy your above ground pool. A 25-27 footer was the size we used to drool over in the Sears Catalog when we were kids. Just be careful to install it and care for it properly especially when you close it down for winter. It will last alot longer this way.
Such joy you bring to the table. Living life is beautiful and you will get to unpack. Blessings to you all xxx
As i like to say, "you do you, the rest will sort itself out in the end." Do what you enjoy doing now and let the rest settle around you. That house will be there when you are ready to unpack. I like being in the garden as well, unfortunately im in an apartment for now. Eventually i will have my land, i have written it in stone in my heart.
You and your family are darling. I just started watching a few months ago. You are one fantastic lady. And a wonderful wife and mama. Keep doing what your doing. Stay safe.
What I so admire about you is your honesty and your intelligence and ENTHUSIASM.YOU GIVE ME HOPE.
You go Mama! Looks like you guys are living the dream. Happy planting! ❤️
I loved the "...the good news is we know other humans who like to eat as well..." I love your humor and your heart for others! Your videos bring such joy to my life. Thank you for being a light for Jesus!
Love all your videos!! 😍
I’m a first time gardener (at age 44)... so I appreciate all the tips & encouragement of your new homesteading videos!!
I live in the city, but I have a raised 4x12 bed. Baby steps!! 💪🏻🍅😆
Just gotta share that when I am having a busy day or a headache day I enjoy playing your videos and just listening along. Thanks for keeping us all up to date
Thank you for your video.
You have a beautiful family and home!
Good luck with the unpacking.
I didn't use the seed free straw and it all started growing,needless to say it was a fun little mess😂😂😂
One year we even planted inside the straw bales. It worked good. Didn't know to look for seed free
I think the rule is that hay has seeds and straw does not. “Hay is for horses Straw is for cows and milk is for babies to shut their mouths”
I think you deserve to do whatever you want to do with your day👍🏻 Great video!
You and your family are a breathe of fresh air. I love your videos and your way of living. Keep up the great work and I'm also
learning a lot from you. Thanks have a great summer.
Wow, you all just go and go and go! We moved a year ago and I still have some boxes not unpacked, don’t worry it will all get done! Your garden is amazing!
I can’t be the only one who is living the country big family life through you right?! 😅
Absolutely not! I am too
So excited to see and hear everything!!!
I just ADORE you Jamerrill ❤
I think it's amazing how you just jump in and do it sometimes I want to do a project I will have the supplies I put it off put it off I'm getting better at not being afraid from watching your videos😊
The boxes will still be there. Can always be done when the weather doesn't allow you to garden ;) Love your videos & your family adventures!
sweetie give yourself some GRACE! also stop focusing on what you haven't done, focus on what you have done! xoxox form california
You are such a joy and inspiration!
Happy gardening and canning this year.
The famous jamerrill saying ‘you see what happened is....’ 😂❤️
"all that to say"
$3800 is cheaper then a big summer trip! Worth it for the next 20 years for sure!
I agree! We'll use it for decades and we're not going to Disney this summer, lol!! 😂
Exciting things happening for you and your family... thanks for sharing 🌻
When things in the world are stressful, there is nothing more wonderful and relaxing than working in your garden! It feeds your soul🌻
Lots of benefits will come from all this hard work. Blessings!
You can get a bread rack like in grocery store and store potatoes on it in the basement in dark room.
I need to watch it again because why not!!! The farm is coming together nicely 👍🏼
I loved all your garden work . Wow . And really enjoyed the birds chirping in the back ground
You’re going to love and appreciate every one of those potatoes. Along with cold storage and canning them, you can also dehydrate them. Don’t forget to set some aside for seed potatoes for next year. For a large family, especially growing children, there’s no such thing as too many potatoes. They’re filled with vitamins and minerals❣️
Speaking of sunflowers 🌻 I tried planting sunflowers a few times. Never worked for me. I read books, watched videos, etc... Just couldn't get it. Last year, my 10 yr old son was eating sunflower seeds and threw a hand full of them over our back fence (a 6 ft privacy fence) there's nothing on the other side of this fence expect a big ditch for water drain off and weeds, trees, ect.... Well, a few months later I'm out back playing with the kids and I notice something that's not normally there waving in the breeze at the fence. I do back there and there's a sunflower wonderland! I think every seed that he threw back there grew into a flower! With no maintenance, no care. And these were seeds from a store bought bag of David's ranch sunflower kernels. How the hell did those things grow? I was plenty jealous and irritated of all the hard work and I couldn't grow even one. A few are growing back this spring, I assume from seeds that fell off from last year. I don't think I'll ever get over this 😂
Usually I don't like 1hour videos, but I love yours!!
I've been waiting ALL DAY for this!!
Enjoy outside while you can...the boxes are like dirty dishes..they will wait for you!!! Fairly new subscriber here.enjoying all your videos..
Maybe at the end of summer they'll clearance some of the pools. Don't know, we don't have one. I just know at the end of summer I look at clearance swimsuits for the next summer.
Love it...you can always unpack later when you get the garden completed. I really enjoy watching your videos.😁
You all look so happy in your new home! Love watching your videos. X
I was so happy to see you vlogs I am getting so dependent on seeing you every week
GOOD MORNING FROM CHICAGO!!!
I just love when we get to see the elusive Mr. Travis in the videos! Don’t feel guilty about the unpacking at all! It will still be there when you get to it 😂 you guys are just having so much fun and providing so well for your family. The fish sticks looked yummy. Tyfs 😊🙏
I get so happy when I see a new video posted from you! Just makes my day😁 I look every day to see if a new video has posted. Thank you for this little piece of joy and happiness. 🌹🌹🌹
You're doing a great job mum!
I need a "jazzy" in my life😍
You are the best. We are all learning along with you. Hugs, hugs to everyone.
JaMerrill unpack this winter when you can’t get outside! Enjoy the sunshine n your garden while you can! I enjoy watching your family so much! God bless your family and you new adventures with Sudden homestead! ♥️🙏
Jemerill look up Hollis and Nancy’s early garden videos. You can learn a lot.
Nikki Boyd yes! That is great suggestion for Jamerill, I love watching Hollis and Nancy and their Facebook page is awesome as well
I've seen Hollis and Nancy before. They are good 👍!
We’ve been in our house 21 years this June and I’m still finding rubber maid totes with stuff I need to on pack🤦♀️🤣 they were in our barn/ garage!
I literally moved boxes that had sat for ten years to our second home we bought from our first home we bought. Sadly, almost seven years later there is still one or two left. I really just need a dumpster and an 8 hour day without five little girls between 3 & 7 and a serious amount of caffeine.
Jamerrill your doing an awesome job. unpacking will happen when the time is right. I moved 6 months ago and im still not unpacked yet but thats ok it will happen when it happens. Im loving watching you milk your sweet goat and planting all kinds of yummy foods. Thanks for sharing
When you said "we do it mamas we get it done." It spoke to me and I have gotten so much done and not stressed while doing it!!!
