I think it is fantastic to see you more relaxed, more accepting of the restraints of time and looking after children, and more ready to accept he things you can not change. Striving for perfection is exhausting, and don't you think it limits the time one has to appreciate the beauty around one or the time to think and dream. Good on you, Lea.❤ How lovely to see the children's participation, and what a wonderful life they are leading! The best there is😊
Lea your an incredible woman love watching you picking your vegetables and then heading to the outdoor kitchen to cook them up with so many recipes we have watched you make. You’re a true homestead wife.
I am so happy to see you Lea, Marrten, and Bo has grown up so fast and Puck with her beautiful red hair. I agree with you to take and do things on your own pace. I love, love the wild flowers. Great to see the family again!!
Geese and (old style) free range turkey cocks are usually quite fearless, noisy when alarmed and big enough to take on any fox and most dogs so they are often kept with chickens and ducks to protect flocks from predation.
Lea as they say there is 'no right or wrong' it is what works for you and one does not need a fancy uniform garden. Weeds do have their place I agree, but if they are not messing your vegetables up why stress about it. Love how Bo comes and helps you and he has grown so big now. Lovely to see you, Marten, Puk , Bo and Louis and the chickens. You are all looking so much happier and relaxed. Groetjes. Have a lovely day. Till the next one.
Inspiration......you are the only real authentic Portuguese CZcamsr. The very first one I started following & will always continue to watch. Intellect, insight, pragmatism, true perception & realistic understanding (JA EK KAN HOOR JOU SNORK EN LAG). I have loved watching how your kids are flourishing in an 'Utopian' environment. Something I have always longed for. I also glean enormous inspiration from your planting AND your cooking. YOU are an inspirational! Living in S.A. it really does sadden me about the need for security cautionary measures......
you need to double peel the beans, boil for a little bit and then take off the white peel to expose the 2 halves of the beans which are very flavouful and tender. They hardly need to be boiled anymore
This year we had an actual spring, many years ago wen I was a kid it was like this, spring used to have lots of rain and sun mixed together. and then 3-4 months of proper summer.
You are doing a great job. I know it's really hard, working most by hand, on the field. With a reason, some plants are growing hard, this year. Love to see your harvest and learning your children, to work by hand and learning the whole proces. Love to see you as a family; it's so important these days. You got a nice sponsor! I will share this option. And there is wild live, not always nice.. Thank you for sharing this video.
I did enjoy this video so relaxed the type of video you can watch on a lazy Sunday the wild flowers 💐 so lovely but the salads looked really good . The good vegetables you grow is so healthy and I like the variety you use more of these videos please love watching you cook.take care bless you all.👋👋❤
I congratulate you, Lea, you have achieved so much. it's so easy to get used to what you've achieved, and stop seeing it. your videos are great, they probably don't get so many views because youtube prioritizes clickbait and juicy, exaggerated thumbnails. I understand that maybe you don't want to go this way.
I'm going to write in portuguese, sure you +family are learning 🇵🇹. Você sempre suave e doce , as crianças cresceram, Puck continua linda no seu cabelo vermelho,Bo está um rapazinho. Saudações portuguesas.
We free range chickens and have fox problems from time to time. Dogs help a lot but still have to fence them in from time to time (and keep,them from escaping the fence LOL)
I love watching your videos and have missed you your voice is so calming and you're a very hard worker About your good work and keep persevering love watching you❤
19:42 that plant with white flowers under the coop seems like wild parsnip or giant hogsweed, it's fibers/liquid removes the UV protection from the skin. It's easy to break but if you don't get its roots out (the larger ones look like sweet potatoes) next year they grow bigger and spread hundreds of seeds. I've dug out several larger ones (+2m tall) with a visor, raincoat, an _enxada_ and gloves, but the first time I did it without the visor, I got my face burning for weeks due to splashing... Not trying to scare, just thought my experience with these things might be helpful. By getting them out this time of the year, population control can be kind of manageable... Great video/update, appreciated the beauty of the fields 🙏
Hello Lea ~ Fava Beans. After you boil them you can pop the beans out of their skin and they're so much more pleasant to eat without the skins. I've been silently watching your channel since the beginning. ;)
When they're young enough I don't mind the skins, plus I don't really have the patience to do another round of peeling. But with the later ones I've double peeled them :)
I suggest to you a few years back ...* RND to plant BANANA...IT WILL MAKE THE SOIL NOT TOO DRY ...AND MAKE THE SOIL BETTER AND LESS GRASS GROW AROUND ...! 🎉 JUST TRY FOR ONE YEAR , THEN YOU WILL SEE THE RESULTS ...regards from malaysia .
I appreciate your videos, real, life things! Even your advertising is real. I am happy when I look forward to your postings. I tried growing fava beans one year in Easterm Iowa (US) but that spring was so hot and dry, the plants dried up and never produced. Maybe I will try again. Who knows?!
Nice fava beans. Try this recipe. Saute some pork spare ribs very well until they are really brown and you get them to carmallis when they are will done add some onions and garlic and the fava beans. Put enough water salted to cover beans and cook until they are soft and you get a nice gravy forming . this is how italians cook them. Also get some goats to do the trimming
I am just getting ready to start my New England garden .. and my aging body does not always cooperate. What helps me is your wise approach to not being a slave to a 'perfect' garden. 👍 Day by day I do what I can... and accept my limitations. Thank you for sharing your journey. Much appreciated. ❤ 🙏
I remember peeling the 'dikke bonne' as we say in Southern Limburg, with my mom. That was nice. But what I really like is the quality of the show. Beautiful views of a beautiful world, filled with beautiful people, animals, plants and hills. Even the sponsored ads are interesting. From here I would say you made it. By the way, how's the digger?
If your nights are colder than 10° C (50°F) then do not put your peppers outside. It will stunt the peppers and they will not have time to make mature fruits before the frost in fall kills them. Keeping them in the warmer greenhouse will save you a month or more of growing time in the garden.
Yes I know, but as I said the weather has been very unpredictable this year. Every time I think it'll be the last time to go under 10, it happens again two weeks later. The starts in my greenhouse are stunted as well. Might just buy a few next week and see how they go.
I like your bean garden a lot. That looks like a most nutritious vegetable. Can you eat the pods as well? I am very fond of the beans we grow that let me eat the pods. I was surprised to hear of the fox getting the chickens. I had expected your dog to go after the fox. The bees would scare me but also look like an efficient way to harvest the flowers. I am glad to see you can handle them.
I've heard you can eat the pods when they're young, still have to try it. The grass was so tall our dog couldn't see or hear the fox either. I love being with the bees, not scary at all (unless you get stung 😅)
@@ourportuguesehomestead I was just trying to think how to get more out of the beans. Would the chickens eat the pods? I hope the dog can protect the chickens better now.
the song in spanish caught me off guard but its so fitting to your video and vibe! Not only in instrumentals but also in lyrics! La cancion se trata literalmente sobre la vida lo natural y la dualidad que experimentamos como seres humanos al vivir :)
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, so true 🙏, thanks for everything else you showed . I enjoy very much watching your videos. You re such a wonderful family and a lovely person 🥰 The music was very nice. What songs were there please? Many thanks
The video and music are nice. The family is doing well with children growing up healthy and happy with loving parents. Love this family! Thank you for sharing this wonderful life with us. 🇺🇲
The wild puppy dug up my pumpkins two days ago. I suppose she was helping me plant as I was digging the holes for peppers. Our first week here my grand pointed out the eagle pair traveling over my house very low. I covered my chicken pen with net as I am certain they would love to feed eagle chicks some of my old birds. Very beautiful video.
Good call! A bird of prey once tried to take one of our young chickens, but she was too big already. But it's the reason I'm not raising chicks until I have a good covered area.
I’m so thankful you practice some of the old ways. Shelling beans etc., is healthy and the results also. Bo is such a great helper. Lady, I so admire you and your family. You and family are true survivalists, and each video teaches us all so many lessons. Blessings and God speed.
This was a most beautiful video. Loved the song. Your kids are growing so fast. Although Azorean, and having family in your region I live in California. Beautiful family and Quinta. Cheers
Bo is so big now! 😊 love seeing him helping you. Those favor bean recipes look delish, going to be giving them a try. Thanks for sharing. Love the music 🎶
I love your point of view about "weeds" (in Dutch "on"kruid), they are indeed not always as bad as a lot of gardeners proclaim 😋 so keep your own style, it works! an idea for your chickens and fox issue: especially American homesteaders use movable chicken coops and rotate the chickens on their land with netting to keep them in a smaller portion on land. it will fertilize that smaller part of your land and they clear all the good and "bad" weeds. you can protect them against the fox, by charging your netting on solar-feed electric. though your chickens might need some time to get used to it as well 😅
Hi guys, fava beans look very similar to what we grow in the UK we call them broad beans. By the way i love rough and ready gardening its not how nice it looks but what you can produce.
Maybe you can borrow a goat just to keep the grass down while it is there - unless you have another use for all the cut grass (I think I remember that you didn't want to have a goat.. but a borrowed goat maybe?)
Very busy, but all things I like doing! Especially excited to have some bees again 😊. I like shelling the beans too, but I understand why people stopped doing it.
It was good to see a video from you. I really enjoyed it. The kids are growing up so fast. I have a question for you. With all the tomatoes you are always growing how come you don't can or freeze them? When making your fava beans you said you added tinned tomatoes. I figured with all that you grow that you would surely can or freeze your veggies for winter time use and to cut down on buying food at the markets.
I don’t really grow so many tomatoes that I have enough for canning, we mostly eat them fresh. We also don’t have a freezer, so that’s not an option. Two years ago I did grow a lot more and I made some ketchup and chutney from the excess.
Please Leah, take the little stems out of the favas, it gives a bitter taste. If you ate them all your life like that, you haven't tried the real fava sweetness yet. Trust me, I'm old 🤣 Love your videos, long time sub. Your children are amazing and happy, and Louie is so precious. You are doing a great job, all the best. Kisses from Setúbal 😘😘😘
I love your vids Lea, they are so calming, you take everything in your stride and are really part of the land you live on, do take care little family, you have an existence most of us envy despite the hardships which I'm sure there are plenty of, love to you all xx🥰😘😘💕💞💓💗👍👍👍🙏
Hoe lang kook jij je tuinbonen? Ik probeer ze nog steeds lekker te vinden, maar het lukt maar niet. Heb ze ook 'dubbel gedopt', maar het blijft een ruige buitenkant .. of je op stukjes jute zit te kauwen of zo. Net of die schillen nooit gaar worden. En dan zo'n melige binnenkant. Dat pellen en de 'slow-down' die erbij hoort, vind ik juist wel fijn, net zoals jij aangeeft. Maar de smaak .. en het mondgevoel .. ik snap wel dat mensen geen tuinbonen (meer) eten.
Tot dat ze zacht zijn. Voor dubbel doppen heb ik echt geen geduld😅. Aan de structuur kan je niet veel meer doen denk ik, is gewoon een kwestie van smaak.
Yes, in the summer it’s restricted. But everything should be short by then, they bumped the deadline to the end of May this year because of the cooler weather. If you want to be sure you can always check the IPMA website
@@ourportuguesehomestead ok, thanks. i did end up finding my way to IPMA. unfortunately i won't be in portugal until mid-June when i was planning to strim the land around our house...sounds like i'll have to look into getting it done for me somehow!

Geese and (old style) free range turkey cocks are usually quite fearless, noisy when alarmed and big enough to take on any fox and most dogs so they are often kept with chickens and ducks to protect flocks from predation.
I’d love to have some one day. For now the main problem was the free ranging
@@ourportuguesehomestead i just thought to give an idea

I agree about don’t worry about the weeds. You mulch most of your garden which helps the soil in the future and stops the weeds some.
Leah, I’d loose my life if I was been attacked by the bees like that! Fair play to you.
Nice to catch up with you guys after Shabbat, wanted to watch yesterday but needed to withdraw to another place. Bless you.
I am so happy to see this vlog. I agree, your garden doesn’t have to be perfect, it needs to fit your family needs.❤🎉

an idea for your chickens and fox issue: especially American homesteaders use movable chicken coops and rotate the chickens on their land with netting to keep them in a smaller portion on land. it will fertilize that smaller part of your land and they clear all the good and "bad" weeds. you can protect them against the fox, by charging your netting on solar-feed electric. though your chickens might need some time to get used to it as well 😅

Your fava beans looks good
Hi guys, fava beans look very similar to what we grow in the UK we call them broad beans. By the way i love rough and ready gardening its not how nice it looks but what you can produce.
Yes fava beans are the same as broad beans 😊
God bless you 🌹
Maybe you can borrow a goat just to keep the grass down while it is there - unless
