- Meet Niki Jabbour. She’s the real year-round vegetable gardener. She easily earned that badge of honor by actually doing it from one of the most unlikely of places, Halifax, Nova Scotia. The first frost of the year shows up about mid-October, and the last is typically mid-May. Niki harvests fresh produce from her garden 365 days a year. We invite you to meet Niki and get a behind-the-scenes look into many of the tips and techniques Niki uses to grow her year-round vegetable garden.

Thank you so much Joe for visiting my garden and sharing my garden story :)
I agree with Niki, hand watering is my time with the garden.
We love this! So great to see our Niki Jabbour featured in this awesome episode :)
I wish there was a longer list of the flowers she's growing! What a beautiful vegetable garden with all those companion flowers
I was excited to hear this would be available before it is aired. It’s a joy to finally see Niki J in her garden. Such fun. Thanks for sharing
Helping gardener's grow... it's what Niki does on her own and now with Joe's help. Good job guys. Love that we are all working on this amazing pursuit - congrats
One of my favorite gardening books is Niki's The Year-Round vegetable Gardner
Niki is a great example that anything is possible. She didn't let the climate she lives in stop her. I have her book "The Year-Round Gardener" and it should be on every food growers bookshelf. Love her hoop house! Greetings from Victoria, BC, Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you and your staff for the knowledge, tips and techniques you have shown us throughout the year. Please tell Nicky thank you also. I love her energy and inspiration. I especially am thankful for Nicky sharing her garden with all of us. Spreading the word of 'feeding the soil'.
when is the next episode? I can't get enough of this <3
What an inspiring and beautiful edible garden. Thank you for sharing.
I am huge fan of Nikki Jabour! I live in Owen Sound ON and the wind can be a huge issue in the winter, but I hope to have a small hoop-house soon! Thanks Nikki! And Joe
greener world it is,,,the diversity on her farm is great.
Yay, thanks Joe for doing a video/show from Nova Scotia!!! I’m in the neighbourhood and you’ve introduced me to such an amazing gardener so close by and in the same zone. We just started our vegie/fruit and flier gardens this year and I think this is going to be so helpful!!! God bless, from Fall River
Excellent episode! One of my all time favourites.
I started my first vegetable garden last year. I got a late start and it didn’t do as well as I hoped! I’ve got most of my fall/winter crops in now and it’s doing better. Just gotta keep trying new and different things! I live just north of you in Cumming, Joe, so I can identify with the challenges of growing in the Deep South! If you ever do a tour of your garden sign me up!! I am thankful for your show-keep up the good work!! And happy thanksgiving 🥧🍗🍁🍂
Ground cherries! They really are a great crop to grow, and so so easy.
Great to see Canada so well represented on GGW! Wonderful garden! Had raised beds growing in Edmonton where earlier warming, and better drainage was a huge deal. I'm in love with this Nova Scotia gardening... harvesting arugula, mustard greens, kale and Italian parsley into December, along with carrots, beets and spinach. Nothing better for a winter stew. ❤️
Wow, what motivation to be diligent about a fall/winter garden. Your zinnias are just gorgeous.
Very inspiring.
