      Hi~ As soon as I saw them near the tree going in with their shovels, I thought... What fun memories they'll have looking back after the trees have matured. However, Benjamin's excitement for underwater swimming with the fam may be a stronger memory! So cute!🙋

    When you grow up on the prairies, you plant trees several years before you build a house on a property. It’s okay to get the trees done first, Aaron. 😊

      What the 4h kids did for the chickens and rabbits during our county fair - 1st week of August - was fill 2 liter soda bottle with water and freeze them, and rotate out the thawed ones for fresh frozen ones. It helped a lot, and you would see the animals cuddling up against the bottles. The fair building would also run misters during the day, but the kids brought the frozen bottles.

    Crossing my fingers that the extremely warm weather and time spent in the studio inspires a succulent arrangement, fairy garden, or terrarium. I’ve always loved all the little projects you find to do some indoor gardening on the hot summer days not fit for the gardener. It makes for a nice little oasis of calm and cool in the midst of the busy season. 🍄🦔🌵

My garden shuts down june 1st and I'm in maintenance mode til mid September because I just cannot be outside more than 2 hours and that's pushing it. At this point I feel sorry for the poor plants having to stay out there in this heat.

      I grew up around where she is in eastern Oregon, and I now live in the humid Maine coast. Its 60% humidity on average, but I’ve also experienced Hawaii at about 70-80% humidity… I prefer the humidity. Probably because I have extremely dry skin, so anytime I went outside in the summer as a kid my skin was practically falling off my face (especially in wildfire season when the air quality was bad, and we also felt like we couldn’t breathe).
      However, humidity comes with more bugs, and it tends to intensify any unpleasant smells lingering nearby, so if I had normal skin I would probably not mind going back home to the desert.

    Mars (South Garden) is looking unbelievable. It's a bit like an artist who starts with a blank canvas - it is a slow building of colour and texture, with each stroke of the paint the idea develops but changes depending on what happens with the paint. I think the South garden development has been so quick!! and as you video in that area is becoming a backdrop to your projects. Loving all of it and just always excited to watch the development of your beautiful space. Love how the tree planting is a family affair- precious memories.

    Yeah Benjamin you can swim under water! Great job!
    It’s awesome that your kids wait so patiently to go swimming.
    Love the birch trees!

    Not a plant tag anywhere! Well done. Nothing ruins a beautiful garden like plastic plant tags!

    “Hey Benjamin, what are these?”
    “Uhh… hollyhocks”
    I love it! So awesome that the kids are learning about things their parents are passionate about - and gardens, at that! My kids know some of the plants we have ( and a lot of my incredible succulents and cacti), but I didn’t get back into gardening for a long time after we moved - so I missed some important time teaching them.

    Love all the tree placements. So cool to see what they visually add to each area! And can I just say, how sweet are the kids and how wonderful that they don't interrupt when others are talking! It seems so many CZcamsr's kids just interrupt them and talk over them when they are trying to talk and it is confusing/distracting to the viewer. Have enjoyed watching this channel for many years and watching the family grow is so lovely!! 🤗

    I just love those trees!! You guys know how to pick some really beautiful things! It’s honestly really fun to watch that huge auger go! Bet you are soooo glad that you didn’t hand dig the hole in that heat! Your little sweet peas jumping right in to help is precious 🥰 Give Benjamin a high five, being able to go under the water is a big deal!! Great job sunshine!!

    I put umbrellas over my hydrangeas on really hot days in summer. I only have three in the ground at this point & they’re planted on the south side of the house. Which would be north for you. The shady side.

  • @LifeHomeandGardenwithAnaRica

    You have a great family all working together in the garden. so inspiring!

    Love seeing Benjamin and Samantha Grace working with you and Aaron. Every time they are in your videos, they bring a smile to my face. I live in zone 8 and our summers are smothering with high humidity.

    Aaron I think you guys are doing it right! I did the same thing. My trees looked weird at the beginning and for me was worse because my trees were way smaller 😂.. 5 years later is looking PERFECT!!! 🥰

    Here I am thinking hopefully you’re still at this CZcams gig in ten years and we all can enjoy seeing how these birch trees and others will look as they grow into their size. Anyway, happy gardening. I saw you first on CZcams a few years back while I was searching for Christmas wreath making tutorials.

    Everything's a trade-off. In SE WI we get some cold winters, but only a few 90° days. But we also get humidity with it. We have some of that coming this weekend, lows in the 70s, which means my house stays closed. I love when the evenings are below 65°. I can open the windows and cool the house at night. Keeping the house shut up day and night just feels like winter again. 😢❄️
