:)) Thank you! My uncle uses good old compost :) It is an amazing garden! I absolutely love it and I am so glad I spent all of my vacation times there as a kid; I will never forget the taste of homegrown food :) Thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate it!
HOLY COW!!! I enjoyed this video so much! And those grapes and apples were amazing, along with everything else of course. There were so many things that reminded me of my grandparent's place. I was taking as tour of their farm in my mind as I was watching your video. I know from experience that the past was flooding your mind as you was doing the video. That concrete reminded me of a concrete tank that my grandparents had. It was at the base of a hill, and there was a pipe that that was driven into the hill. Water poured out of the pipe 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, because there was a spring there. Then there was a pipe that came out of that tank and went into another tank that had fine sand in the bottom of it. That is where they got their drinking water for about 40 years, until somebody decided it wasn't safe. I hope you enjoyed remembering some of your old memories and making new ones!
Thank you so much Jim, I appreciate it so much! Yes, memories, memories... And it seems like your grandparents had a pretty sophisticated water cleaning system - it is amazing how people figured it out in the past! In an upcoming video on the other channel, I have a clip of being up in the mountains filling up my water bottle from a spring. Bulgaria has so many natural springs and I think we have the largest variety of mineral water in the world. Thank you so much for watching Jim, I am so happy you enjoyed the video! Thank you again!
Every bit of that yard looks productive. Here of course we grow grass by dumping fertilizer and weed killer on our lawns, then pay someone to cut it. I think we've lost our way here in the States. What a wonderful garden Sasha with great memories for you. Thanks for the post.
Thank you so much! I really, really appreciate your comment 😍 I feel the same way about the United States... And that’s why I absolutely love watching the Midwest Gardener, Permaculture Homestead and a few others... Thank you again for your support!
Sasha, what an unbelievably beautiful and rich heritage you have! Thank you for sharing it with us! And I think someone mentioned it, but in case they didn’t, that fruit is a quince. Delicious as you know! Blessings to you.
Thank you so much for your kind comment Jennifer! I really appreciate it! And yes, the fruit is quince :) They don't grow in Arizona and are not sold here so I haven't had the chance to learn the English name :)) Thank you again for your kind words!
On my other channel I have a video driving from Lom to Sophia and there is a village with only 80 people left - there are so many abandoned house there.... And yes, homegrown is the best 😍
Never seen such an apple and grape tree with so so so much fruit on it. Just wow, unbelievable. I am curious to know what are they going to do with so much produce? Thank You for this wonderful video
Thank you! I really appreciate it! They use the grapes for wine, the apples for a homemade alcohol called rakia, the cabbage will be fermented as a sauerkraut and the rest of the produce will be canned for the winter :) Thank you for watching!!!
Wonderful tour, we purchased a house near the old capital 2 years ago, our garden has over thirty different varieties of fruit trees and vines. Our aim Is to be as self sufficient as possible, although seasonal vegetables are super cheap on the local market. Bulgaria is such a beautiful country, sending you much love!
Thank you Micky! I didn't get to go to summer camps as a kid, but I still think I had the best childhood ever :) That place was like Wonderland for me :) Thank you so much for watching and thank you for your kind words! Best, Sasha
now that is what a garden should look like !....you are absolutely right it is eden......i keep working on mine but it will never be as nice as that....alot of love was/is being put into that garden........thank you sasha/and relatives , for the wonderfull tour.
Oh, thank you Allen! You always say the nicest things! I really appreciate it and I am sure your garden is fruitful and beautiful! Thank you so much for your comment Allen!
Your video took me right back to playing in my Dados garden in New Zealand! He created a backyard very similar to this very nostalgic... I remember he always had a pocket knife, and he peeled the apples in one go for us like a big spiral, he grafted many different varieties onto 1 tree, he made a giant glasshouse for grapes, tomatoes, chillies etc, he brewed his own peach brandy etc, he used to play backgammon with his fellow old cronies and they’d smoke and drink whilst arguing over which squares they had been in 😂 maybe one day I should visit Bulgaria to see some more of my heritage. Because of him I’m obsessed with gardening and have planted a food forest for our family too... these memories are so deep and beautiful. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful tour. Ps... any other tips and tricks Bulgarian home gardeners use would be fascinating, unfortunately my grand dad passed when I was only a child and I have so many questions about his homeland.
Hello Alice! Your memories of your childhood are so beautiful! It seems like we both had wonderful grandparents! I will share more when I go back there! Thank you so much for watching, I really appreciate it!
Thank you for sharing. It would be worth having your grandma's stove and the sink bath shipped to you in the states. You appreciate the old ways so much.
Seeing all that stuff doing so well was really great. So...many...apples! LOL So much food growing in such a small area is really cool. Good stuff. Thanks for the share!
What a beautiful garden! Thank you so much for taking us along on your visit back home. Just googled Bulgaria's immigration policy, thank God for their common sense, it sounds like you may have a real homeland to visit for many years to come. Sorry to get political but when I saw the beautiful garden in Bulgaria I felt compelled to find out about the situation over there.
No problem at all! I’m not quite sure about the government’s stand on it as we are part of the European Union, but the people I’ve talked to are against the uncontrolled immigration. And thank you for your compliment, it was a lot of fun making this video 😍
Thank you so much Tyler! I really appreciate it! I do have another channel where I put more videos about places I go to and things I do in Arizona. Here is a link tho my latest video there about my hometown in Bulgaria - czcams.com/video/-nTMYxCo5UE/video.html Thank you so much for subscribing! I appreciate it! Best, Sasha
Good morning I’m actually going over, I’ve never been before, Bulgaria it a beautiful and historical place that many people don’t know, was the gateway from east to west, Alexandria the grate marched his army through there, along with many grate leaders from the past, I’m looking forward to ending my days there in peace ✌️ I truly believe it is Eden, the fertile land is beautiful
At 8:30 it is a quince. It is very delicious baked with some honey :) Did you notice at 5:30 the apple tree - there were two varieties of apples on it - green and red ones? I believe that we had a pear tree there - it was with three branches with three varieties of pears on them.
:)) Thank you! One of the Serbian subscribers recognized it too :) And yes, I saw the tree with the 2 varieties of apples when I was editing the video :) Thank yo for stopping by Tony :) I love you!
So beautiful! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

You can buy a house in Bulgaria for 1000$ in a village and grow a garden like that. Real food bro not from the supermarket

I think that fruit that looks like an apple might be a quince....hard and full of pectin for jams and jellies?
Hi Mary! Yes, that is the english name and yes, we make super delicious jams from it. Thank you! and thank you for watching, I appreciate it!
So so beautiful!!! Than you for the tour!
Thank you Juanita! I really appreciate it 😍
wonderful childhood
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing. It would be worth having your grandma's stove and the sink bath shipped to you in the states. You appreciate the old ways so much.
Thank you so much! Yes, that would be wonderful, but it’s better where it belongs - home. My uncle will take care of it. Thank you for watching!

Hello from Missouri! My Bulgarian boyfriend, Ivan, was curious as to what part of Bulgarian you are from? He's loving this video!
Hi! I’m from the Northwest. My grandma’s village is called Selanovtsi (near Oriahovo) 😊
@@AnOldSchoolHome he said that he grew up in Klisuritsa!
LilNerdy1107 wow! That’s very close to my hometown - Lom!
The fruit is quince.
Thank you!

Няма начин да изядете толкова ябълки, дори и да продавате пак ще ви останат. Надявам се, че осъзнаваш колко ракия може да се свари от тези ябълки и гроздето, след като направиш виното естествено
A lot of it is being composed for future use in the garden 😍
И да, вуйчо ми прави и ракия 😍
