At long last you can see my new garden here: czcams.com/video/8Mu4wtpPluo/video.html
I was panicking because I had not seen any videos from you, they just never came up for me. Very glad to hear there will be more!
I also started my CZcams Gardening Ch in 2011, but I was quite a bit older than you... Huw 🙂 I do agree that a garden is like an artwork that's always getting touched up and improved. All the best with your new garden canvas and upcoming book 👍😉
You are one of my Top 10 favorite CZcamsr sir !! 😊😊😊 love all of your Videos 😊😊
In 12 years you both grew the 2 best gardening channels on CZcams
Thank you so much Mark! What a journey you've been on too! Over 2mill subscribers, absolutely bonkers and well deserved!
Mark and Huw!! Two of our favourites! You must get together sometime. Preferably in my garden! 🇦🇺 🌱
@selfsufficientme
Wow good to see you leaving a comment .I watch your videos eagerly even though my area in Worcestershire is cool wet and windy very unlike your weather conditions and I love your humour .my daughter and sister moved to Australia sister in Melbourne daughter in Adelaide
It's never silly to thank anything that ever made an impact on us. Specially something so wonderful and so positive as your garden. ❤
Thank you.
Yes! In all things give thanks. God is gracious and good!
I second that. That garden is a sacred space. It has clearly given and received much love.
Exactly, that's not a silly thing.... it is one highly recommend.... especially that in this case is about the land that became a garden, it is about Earth herself.
Although I do not agree with this method of topping up compost and actually not growing the plants that much into the soil of the garden, I very much enjoyed watching your videos. So I thank you, your team and your garden for that and I hope to enjoy as much the secret garden.... hopefully with a bit more plants into the soil and a bit more 'disturbance' of it 😂
(because that sort of 'disturbance' is actually so good for the soil and the health of the planet herself)
I’ve just sold my home of 17 years and before I left I said farewell and thanked my garden for what it had produced for me and my family over the years 😊
Not only an ode to your Garden, but also to the great parenting of your mother and father. Not only have they given you the ability to sustain yourself and others through nutrition, but they have also, obviously, given you the ability to express yourself emotionally in a calm manner. Those two together are going to make your adult life so much easier. Thanks for all of your videos, they have made me a much better gardener, and I have always enjoyed your soft and humble delivery.
From a 70yo gardener in Australia who also enjoyed ' A Good Life' on tv. Have watched many of your early videos on vegie growing & followed your advice. I too am a bit emotional for you moving on. I only hope your parents can handle the garden size now or are you going to downsize it for them? Thanks for sharing all those gems of info with us & I will continue to watch you go from strength to strength.😊
What a remarkable person you are, Huw Richard's. How much better the world would be if people had even a bit of your character. Thanks to your Dad for shaping you and gifting us with such a treasure.
1. What a great Dad! You do right by honoring him and I am sure you are a blessing to him as well. 2. A project as large as this is like art. Never really done. 3. Love for what you do is rare in this world. I am glad for you.
What a lovely comment! thank you!
A new beginning is always a positive and the fact that you can go back to your past whenever you want is a blessing❤
That is beautifully put, thank you
It must be such a relief to know the garden will be cared for. When I left my subtropical paradise garden we had made in Australia, the new owners had destroyed most of it within months - partly deliberately, partly just through neglect. The back garden was then excavated to make room for a pool. The only way to get over the devastation has been to make a new and excting temperate garden here in New Zealand. I just feel sad, not only for the lovely place it was, but also for the children who will grow up with a sterile space, no joy of growing living things, and just a pool.
@@trilliarobinson7862 hello, I totally understand you, and even if I don't know your garden I feel bad the new owners have destroyed a little paradise full of life you made 😞. Australia has lost a little paradise, New Zealand is winning one... I personaly moved to my house 4 years ago (from an appartment, in France) and I've been inspired by many youtubers since to create my little permaculture garden. It begins to look quite nice and efficient, and sometimes I think about "if I have to move (even if it's not in my plans !), will the new owners destroy all that ?" and that hypothesis breaks my heart...I wish you a nice gardening journey in your new place !
Thanks Melodie ! I think we all have to accept that new owners won't love our gardens as we do. Unfortunately, because of Covid lockdowns, I had to remain living across the road from mine for 9 months, so watched it's destruction firsthand ! All we can do is love the garden we are in, and gain so much pleasure while we can. @@melodiergb3654
Looking forward!
At first I was very sad when I heard you say goodbye to your garden, but as I continued to listen, I was very happy that you were going to continue with your channel and that your garden was going to be returned to your father. The aerial views show your beautiful art work with your garden and the love that you have for it. May God be with you and your family, and may your future be bright and successful.
Amen 🙏
Amen. ❤
You should be immensely proud - your regular videos have brought pleasure to thousands of people, put a smile on their faces and encouraged them to get out and about and enjoy their gardens. On to the next chapter!
I really appreciate that - thank you Steve!!!
I’m suddenly reminded of a song from 70 years ago: I will follow you, follow you wherever you may go, there isn’t an ocean so deep, a mountain so high it can keep, keep me away… from the gardeners I love 💕
That gave me goosebumps
I Will Follow Him by Little Peggy March
@@pensgirl10I enjoyed listening to the song, on CZcams, thanks for mentioning it😊
@@pensgirl10 love it
It's THAT OLD 😂🫣❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ 🎼🎵🎤
Well this was a lovely, moving send off to your garden. I'm chocked up. I've followed your channel since you were 14. How time flies.
Wow - a vetran viewer! Thank you so much for being a part of this
@@HuwRichardsme, too! You were such a cute boy! You’re still cute but it was that boy who got me in the garden & helped me to be ok even if all my seeds died! ;) I learned the adventure of experimenting and the fun that this could be! Thank you for helping & encouraging so many of us who might have never had a chance to pick a pea otherwise! ❤
Same here. Long time viewer. Your videos & garden have always blown me away. Hoping one day I might have one or be part of one. Keep up the amazing work & best of luck in the new garden. Also feel free to do any shoutouts for volunteers 🙏🌍🌱
And I'm another with weepy eyes and a joyful heart, watching your journey. Glorious beyond words. Thank you.
@@thezenfarmerOde to Huw, his inherited garden, a boy becoming a man, lineage and life unending, amen. All the best plowing forward, Huwman
This channel has long been my personal "gold standard" for all YT channels. I know some of what you do here stems from the fact that you have been a content creator for so long, but you have never fallen into the trend trap. That is what always kept me coming back. And when you have a video with "Goodbye" in the title, I know it isn't a click bait scheme.
It's been fun and inspiring watching you and your garden grow. This was a fine tribute to everything you've done up until now, and I am very much looking forward to what I will learn from you in your new garden!
Those aerial views are absolutely beautiful, you and your dad have done an incredible job with that space. Congratulations on "leveling up", as it were!
A garden closer to home…looking forward to your next chapter! I am a “postage stamp” gardener, at 74 yrs…2 beds, still learning, on the corner of a busy street in a mountain town…I enjoy your garden journeys so much, it’s a fantasy garden journey for me! Blessings of roots and wings to you!
Thank you very much!
Started out so sad, but happy your dad will re-inherit it. This garden was my inspiration 🙏
I'm so happy too about that
I almost had tears in my eyes until that part...what a good idea to give it back to its creator ❤
Oh my goodness, I was thinking the same thing! I actually thought it was all done and I actually started *grieving* the loss of Huw's constant presence and this garden that he has caused to have such a huge impact on my life! And then he goes on to say it's not over...either the channel or this garden. Phew!! Thank you so much Huw, for all the work you have done for so many years! I didn't find you til about 5 years ago, but I think I have went back and watched every video you have made:) I don't comment a lot, but I do occasionally. I felt like this one needs a comment as it is a huge change but exciting new beginnings. I'm so glad my first perception was wrong but I thought I would take the opportunity to let you know how much of a positive impact you've made. The wisdom, beauty, freedom and so much of your personal life/joy of what you do, shared on your channel are absolutely refreshing and encouraging. You have inspired me to garden with abandon and to keep curiosity and fun at the center so my garden doesn't feel like a burden, but a great adventure....even when my growing season is 2 months long 😜 Thank you again:)
I was so sad, I had to read ahead in the comments because it seemed so heavy! Phew! I can watch and know. I don't like that kind of suspense.@@Atimatimukti
@@juanitaglenn9042beautifully said ❤❤❤
Huw, omgosh, you gave me a cry and a scare! 😂💖 Your garden has been a part of many of our lives, so saying goodbye in such a meaningful way was wonderful to see. And I am SO GLAD this is just the end of a chapter and the beginning of a new one, as if you were to fully end this channel... good grief. Welp, I'm just truly thankful that's not the case. Looking forward to see what you have in store for us in the future!
I know!!! I was scared too that this was it! The end! I just found this channel and subscribed. Excited to see what the next chapter has in store for us. 😊
Huw I began watching you early on in your journey, I believe we are the same age. I watched this video with my toddler on my lap and I told her, "this is Huw, he's handsome and very talented. He also has a great accent and beautiful garden!" She loved it. We are in Florida, USA so very different climate but very big fans. This made me so emotional! Change can be hard but I'm so grateful for all you've taught us and look forward to your next chapter.
Florida is a great place to grow a garden
Wow…you started so young. I have only known about your channel in the last few years, and it’s become a favorite. You are so good at what you do and you inspire so many.
Yay! Thank you!
That is a very lovely farewell! The nostalgia based in basically growing up in that space must be really big. You did well :)
Lots of nostalgia for sure! Funny though going through my old vidoes, completely forgetting most of them ever existed!
He did indeed.
Every end is a new beginning. For that reason, I say congratulations! It's always difficult to end a chapter in a book, but it's the cost of progress. Our experiences and memories make us who we are. Even if you're not in that garden anymore, it will forever be the foundation of the person you continue to become.
I’ve been following u for ages and im crying and feel overwhelmed to watch this. Thank you for all the lesson i got from your channel 😊
Good Luck Huw, can't wait to see the secret garden!
I can't wait to show you!
Looking forwards to seeing it.
Huw. I've just cried. So emotional. Incredible. You are such an inspiration to so many and have lead the way. Changed so much and encouraged so many. From the bottom of my heart Thank You.
Keith I really appreciate your words, thank you so much! I am very grateful
I am so glad you are just handing that lovely garden back to your Dad. I'm sure for many years you filled his heart with great joy as he watched his son's passion grow. I will miss this garden but know in your new garden you will continue to amaze us.
From my whole heart: Thank you, Huw, thank you, Beautiful Garden! I don't mind telling you this video made me very emotional too... bless you for letting us know that you are going to keep with us, and moving to The Secret Garden. 💚
Thank you Huw. For sharing all the wisdow that you have gained from the garden and for sharing your goodbye to it.
I really appreciate that, thank you
Looking forward to seeing your next adventure, and to continuing to learn from you.
thank you so so much!
Oh no! I will really miss you in this garden. Thank you for your efforts and sharing your knowledge with us all. You did a great thing here. Don't forget that. Can't wait to see the next chapter.
That is so nice of you - thank you!
The fact you thanked the garden is appreciated ✨🌿🌾✨
Great memories made and new ones to come in the new secret garden.
Exactly 💯
It's wonderful that your dad started & you wanted to help. Once he realized you lived it he allowed you to take care of it all by yourself. That's the way it should be. I know your dad will take good care of it. A new chapter is waiting. The new garden is anxiously awaiting for your 100% attention. It will be beautiful as this 1. I'm glad you're not giving up the garden videos
Watched you grow from a boy into a man in this garden that has nurtured you and you've nurtured in return. Thank you all... Touched more than one can say
May your garden thrive no matter where you are!
Touching goodbye to the garden that has brought you up and provided a space for you to grow just as well as the thousands of food plants over the years. How wonderful that although this chapter has ended, the garden will still be there with your dad to visit. Looking forward to the new chapter Huw, all the best 🌻🌻
I have found comfort in your videos. Even your voice is calming. I look forward to seeing your new home and garden.
Thank you so much
Lovely vid. Thank you to your 1st garden from me.
Your love and affection for the garden is, and has been in the past, clearly to be seen. Very best of luck with your new venture.
It is wonderful to hear you express your gratitude to the garden for together you have grown so much. Saying goodbye honours the garden. Enjoy the memories and the new chapter ✨️🌱
Whoa! So glad to know you're not ending your channel. Good luck with the new garden and I will miss this one. I've always thought it was so lovely.
I will NEVER end this channel!
Huw, I am a fellow gardening CZcamsr from Hungary, and I would like to thank you and your amazing garden for all the inspiration you have given me during the years. Your channel has always been a place I could go back to and recharge from if necessary, a goal to - still - achieve, your quality of work a standard to follow. Thank you very very much. Looking forward to seeing where you're going from here. 👏
Thank you Huw.
♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
Cheers Terry!
@@HuwRichards 👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍
So beautifully filmed - the footage, the music, the homage, the script, the history, the nostalgia, the journey, and of course Huw. I love the story, how it ends with the return of the garden to the original owner, the teary emotions. Thank you, love you, Huw, and your wonderful garden.
Oh my gosh , I had tears in my eyes watching this video 😢.
What an inspiration! And I don't blame you for how you feel. Your dad was a wonderful man to let you use this garden to a wonderful young man with passion to grow and inspire thousands of individuals like me and many more !
Neither to say , I am excited to see your new garden! Can't wait ! 😂👏🏻
A new journey, how awesome! 😊
Thank you so much!! What a lovey comment! He is such a fantastic man, and I will forever be grateful to him
Never easy to say goodbye but lots of new adventures in the future to say hello too. All the best with the new garden.
Thank you so much Sean, hope you're well:)
Big hug from Hungary 💚from the people of the hungarian cultural creatives, from the hungarian deepmulching community and also from the Hungarian Permaculture Association 🫂💚
Beautiful tribute to a hugely formative part of your life, and ours. As much as your Dad gets his garden back, I think he will miss having you there. Roots and wings, right? You built roots in this garden, and now you're spreading your wings. In some way, that's why your parents chose the John Seymour/Tom and Barbara lifestyle - so that just this would happen.
Thanks Huw, it's good time for new horizons while you're still young, enjoy!
A fresh start, inspired by so much
A lovely ode to the garden! She will be missed.
I'm Australian and have watched yours and Mark's (from Selfsufficientme) channels for years. I have a tiny garden but grow as much food as I can. I had a horticulturalist ask me if I'd like him to help me plant out my garden when I was unwell for a couple of years and he mentioned the flowers he had in mind. I didn't recognise the plants he mentioned and asked "can you eat it?" He laughed and said "no" so I declined his offer. I never saw him again! I get a lot of my knowledge from my Grandad and also from you and Mark. Thank you and good luck on your future endeavours! 💜
yes!! I also followed both of them❤
Ditto, I get great info from Mark and Huw's videos too.
And me. Plus Charles Dowding. I started growing at 4, thanks to my dad too. I’m now 71 and still learning and enjoying growing and eating the produce, now experimenting with using aquaponics for easier propagation of stem cuttings as well as wicking beds, raised beds, vertical growing, and wild food forest (banana circle, paw paw, sweet potato, ginger, tumeric, galangal, herbs), and quails, all in just about 35sqm of what was once a tiled waterfront. My friends think I’m mad to create so much work, but this lifelong interest, the closeness to nature, witnessing the life cycles and competing & symbiotic relationships, is what has kept me physically healthy, mentally alert and psychologically content all these years. I look forward to your next series Huw
@johnaldersley3328 wow, what a wealth of experience! Bet your gardens amazing ❤️
It's been a pleasure Huw, watching you over the years. Although I'm a seasoned gardener at nearly 67 years old, some of your tips have helped me on my allotment. I wish you all the very best on your next venture.
I understand exactly how you feel about leaving the land you have put so much time and energy into to build it up to what it is. 💯👍👍😎
Tough for sure!
It’s great to see how you’ve evolved!
Thank you! Quite the journey
That is so special to thank the garden! Delighted it is going back to your Dad and really looking forward to The Secret Garden 🪴
How wonderful your dad will be back at the helm of this garden. You can visit any time. 😊
Man, you got me with that thumbnail. 😱
While I live in a _radically_ different climate and can't really take away too terribly much in terms of certain crops, I've enjoyed your channel for quite a while now. I'm glad you touched on this being your career, because that's where I've stumbled a bit personally - I wanted a garden like this and honestly felt like I wasn't doing enough, and my wife has to remind me that I already have a full time job and about 1000 other obligations, and there just isn't the time. She's echoed what you said here, and I need the reminder sometimes.
You've done more for making me want to visit Wales than any Welsh Tourism Board ever could. 😂
I'm looking forward to seeing the new garden progress.
Thank you for enjoying my channel! And hahaha I may even send them a screenshot of that! Have a great day
Wonderful to see you honouring your dad like that Huw, such a rare occurrence these day with the younger generation. Just goes to show you’ve had a wonderful upbringing with a freedom to explore the earth and reap the benefits of hard work. Looking forward to watching where your next journey takes you 🤗 well done!
I started watching you when you were a little kid, I thought it was a little weird for a kid to have a gardening channel and what could I learn from him but I subscribed lol. And I would periodically watch your videos with increasing frequency. It has been nice to watch you grow up and evolve as gardener. You are leaving behind a beautiful space but I am sure you will create a new one. You are still young and a new adventure is a great new learning opportunity. Look forward to watching the new garden evolve along with you.
Omg, I felt really choked up hearing you say your goodbyes to this beautiful place! I have followed your career since discovering one of your videos, perhaps when you were 13 or so, showing viewers how to take rose cuttings. I thought it was the sweetest thing seeing a lad so young sharing such a ‘grown up’ topic with so much enthusiasm. I have rejoiced over the years seeing your channel grow, and you alongside with it. You deserve every success, Huw!
I’m sure the next venture will be an ever more successful chapter in your life. All the best, and I’m looking forward to sharing the journey with you.
you know that teary-eyed smiley emoji?! That's me over here! A big hug to you and also to your Dad 🤗. I remember the videos with him in it. Happy for you both and honored to have been able to watch it all evolve. Now... Secret Garden grand-opening pleeeease!!! Eagerly awaiting this next chapter in your book! 💚🌱🌷🥰
Oh my world! 😢 starting everything at such a young age! I’m totally impressed and I have to tell you you’re such an inspiration! Props to you, I’m trying to get a land soonish to be a little self sufficient !
Yeah baby Huw haha! Best of luck with your journey!
Looking forward to new beginnings
Such a wonderful tribute to your best “friend!” I’ve watched you for several years and you’re my favorite gardener to watch. I’m an American but I’m a 1/4 welsh and have visited the country so that’s another reason I love your videos. Love that your videos are always so calming and refreshing, and you’re always so genuine. A real talent for communicating too. Your passion shines through… started to get chocked up because I know how attached we get to our gardens!! Thanks for being you.
Such beautiful memories, and now a new vision. I remember watching you as a young lad learning and experimenting in your gardens, all those years ago. As my grandmother use to say, "You've done good!" You are leaving some beautiful gardens for your dad to enjoy. 😀
Thank you for your continued support over all of these years!
You have really grown, not only in height but especially in knowledge! ☺This is something no one takes away from you. This is a time to look back at what you have accomplished! A great inspiration for us to start our own vegetable garden and grow bigger! 👍
We are starting fresh next season in our homestead in France after leaving our small vegetable garden behind. And we are very curious about your secret garden, this one is definitely going to be another success and we will follow you again!
This garden is just so amazing and extraordinary. Thank you for sharing it with us, your viewers ! I'm sure the next chapter will be wonderful too.
Thank you so much!!
Phew 😅 so glad to hear it is not the end of your channel Huw and no, it is not a funny idea by any means to thank the garden. As I’m sure you will already know, just like you and every single one of us the plants, wildlife & creatures that live there as well as the earth are “life” itself. All of us are living beings. If we/they were not, none of us would exist. We each have a role to play as guardians of the earth and we each are dependent on the other.. so with that in mind I’m sure your all encompassing garden appreciates you as well and the connection you have formed through the transference of the love and energy you put into it.. and that you have received in return. It has responded with an abundance of nutritious, life giving food and given much pleasure, healing and joy which you will also, receive from which ever garden you create. All the very best 🙏🏼
Change.
Always difficult, filled with uncertainty.
Yet a whole new adventure.
The pass years have been wonderful.
The gardens beautiful.
Looking forward to a whole new series to come.
Best wishes ❤
Thank you very much!
This video just popped up out of nowhere and oh boy I was wrong thinking the title was dramatic; I can't imagine leaving sth, even for the better, that you worked and nourished so hard for over a decade. Especially when you spent a significant amount of your childhood in it. It is indeed a beautiful garden you cared and created. I can't help but hope you the best of best, with your next chapter! Take care!
What a lucky Dad ! Beautiful ode to your special garden - how wonderful another spot of nature will be getting the Huw love and care
Beautiful farewell, and so wonderful to have shared it with your Dad and he will continue to enjoy it. Secret Garden 💚🌱 Thank you Huw, you are an inspiration 🙏🏼
Huw, so nice to watch this video and understand your grounded start from your Dad. You created an incredible environment and your passion pours through in all you do. It is not weird to thank your garden, it is a humbling appreciation of all that is beyond our control as gardeners. No doubt you have had a positive impact of countless aspiring gardeners including yours truly from Northern, Virginia, USA. Be safe and well and best of luck in your future endeavors.
Awh thank you! I felt it was the perfect opportunity to share a bit of my history in this video too, and the beginnings. Thank you
Thanks Huw for sharing your beautiful journey 💚☘️💚☘️
Thanking the beings of the garden is something we should all do...I appreciate you.
Hi, I was so upset when I started watching this ‘farewell to the garden’ video, as I have been watching you since you were very young, you were and still are a huge inspiration to me…..you saved me in during lockdown, I felt as though I had a very interesting friend….then you said your Dad was having it back and you were still going to continue sharing ideas and your usual cheerful self with us all! What a huge relief!
I feel rather selfish, but everyone tells me that as one door closes another one opens!
I have been gardening before John Seymour wrote his self sufficiency book, but I’ve learnt so much more from you than anyone else. Thankyou and Goodluck with the secret garden.
We need you as much as you need us!
I actually learned a lot from you and this garden. I learned to identify plants that I have never grown. Thank you to you and this wonderful garden.
Thank you so much!
Oh my! How sweet is that, that you started this so young!! So wonderful to see a young person investing in something so important!
Thank you so much!
Well done Huw. I've been with you all the way and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your progress. You're very inspiring. Top man. Ps I love John Seymour's book too, also the earth care manual and Chris Evans work on permaculture, he's just been awarded an MBE on his work. Cheers J
Dear Huw, your gardening channel has been a terrific influence on me. I am a "late bloomer", but and an enthusiast now, producing delicisous veg and moving around my garden recreationally. Thanks, son!
Perfect music 🎶 That patch of land is magic...amazing, Huw. Cheers to your parents, the garden, and to you 🍾
Your gardens are works of art. The attention to detail and harmony show in everything, trellises, fences, raised beds etc. I look forward to see what’s next in your story.
To me, your garden and videos are the most beautiful - you grieved me until you disclosed that this garden and you are both carrying on - lovely and lovely!
Growing up with you and your garden was very special. Thanks for those many years. And many years to come. Loving and living what you do is so important.💞
The first video I watched of yours was one where you showed us how to start pea seedlings in a length of gutter and then transplant them by sliding them out of the gutter and into a shallow trench. I bought your book too. You've certainly inspired me! In a world full of men whose attention is on other less valuable pursuits, it was refreshing to see a man cultivate the ground with passion and knowledge seeminly beyond your years, and do so successfully. Anyways. A new chapter sounds like quite the adventure, and I am excited to see what you do!
Looking forward to watching you grow and evolve with the new garden. Change is always hard, but I see that the new adventure will be exciting for you. I’m looking forward to this next chapter. ❤
Thank you Karen, I am also looking forward
A very lovely goodbye to a beloved garden.
Wow. I was not expecting this today. This garden has cultivated seeds well beyond its hedge rows. This garden has helped with a greenhouse in central Ohio. It has helped me be more efficient with my time. It has helped me step back from time to time and really consider the dynamics of my particular space. And so. much. more.
I look forward to the next chapter!
As I pick the fruits and veggies from my garden I always thank the plants. It is not silly to thank your garden. If you listen it will say thank you back for the wonderful care you gave it.
Thanks to you and your family for lending us your garden to help us learn the art and science of gardening. Connection to nature, to the soil to the reality of the seasons is something of true value.
What a journey, I think I started watching your videos around 2013 even though we live in a totally different climate and shared my potato experience with you in a comment back then.
Well, if it’s time to move on then yes it is. I am coming to UK in a few weeks for two days but will be returning late January for a week or so and planning to meet some of my favourite gardeners including Charles and yourself.
The good thing is that the channel is still there.
I have been watching your videos for years, and I feel honoured and privileged to been able to watch you grow and mature as wonderfully as the plants you have nurtured. Bless you and your family, and I look forward to watching your new garden develop!
Great to see how you've grown, with the garden, and looking forward to the future ahead
Thank you very much! Like a sibling almost😂
Wow I didn't really know the back story. Kudos to your dad for giving you so much encouragement and letting you run with it. You and your story will be such a great inspiration to so many I hope, for sure many need to hear it in this day and age. Thanks and I look forward to the next chapter.
Wow Huw, you literally grew up in front of our eyes! Good luck with your new project. I'm sure it will be wonderful, enjoy it. 🎉🎉
Huw...... I've just cried. This video is so emotional.😪 I am also a gardener and I enjoyed watching your videos of your beautiful garden since 2016. I'm from Slovenia and I remember your video when you came to our country in 2018. You were so excited when you saw that every house has its own garden. Now you are saying goodbye to your garden. I am sure we will see your new gardening achievements in the future . That is a very emotional farewel. Thank you Huw for all yours videos, you are an inspiration. I wish you all the best. ❤
Qué bueno que tu tan querido jardín vuelve a manos de tu papá. Aún así entiendo lo difícil que es dejarlo, al haber sido hasta ahora parte tan fundamental de tu vida. De alguna manera es como despedirse de un ser muy querido. Gracias por compartir este momento con tus seguidores y gracias por todo el conocimiento que nos compartes en tus videos con tanto encanto y entusiasmo. Saludos desde Chile!
Thank you, Huw! Looking forward to and excited about the next chapter, but so pleased that you did this closure video. We all love this garden and learned so much from it, too ❤
When one door closes, another one always opens.
Wonderful that you had a base to start your journey.
An fantastic grounding with your Dads support.
Looking forward to the next chapter. "The Secret Garden"
I was in the garden today turning the lawn cuttings, and mixing in the coffee grounds, still going to chop up the autumn 🍁 leaves to mix in.
My husband came to see what I was doing, i told him proudly I learnt this from Huw Richards video's.
Greetings from SA 🌍🇿🇦 ❤️💚👍👋
It has been a blessing to watch you grow into such a fine young man, you have taught me things I would have never learned otherwise. Thank you so much!!!
How lovely to be able to leave something you've cared for for so long in such capable hands, I hope you can continue to enjoy your Dad's garden for a long while yet! And all the best for the new space! Looking forward to seeing the next season. We've had a bit of a fallow year in our garden, but maybe seeing you settle in and set up will help me to get things going here :)
Oh Huw, you’re such an incredible inspiration. Thanks for sharing this farewell to the garden you’ve loved so much.
Thank you so much!
This feels like a beautiful thank you and congrats on what you’ve accomplished and what’s to come!
