I love seeing gardens like Becky’s at Acre Homestead they’re so organized and pretty….. but by far the gardens I most adore and resonate with are gardens like yours! Speaks to me in a bit of a functional mess chaotic kind of way ha😊 (she says with love!)
My heart will always be with controlled chaos lol. Neat and tidy lines while satisfying just don’t offer enough creativity for me and I end up bored! 😂
Nice harvest and love your flowers. Enjoyed your tour. Are the bag a bug for catching Japanese beetles bad for an organic garden? Val C
I can empathize about the heat. I’m in South Carolina, and we have been having temps in the upper 90s with heat indexes between 110 and 115. Then Debby came calling - twice. My garden now looks like it usually looked the end of October.
Pulling carrots tip: if you can feel the top, push in just ever so slightly, and then give a little wiggle around, and then gently tug upward. That's how my gram taught me. Grandpa would say to get carrots after a gentle rain, within a day, because the soil will release them better. I learned so much from them when I was little, it amazes me now how much knowledge I reserved in my brain.
Almost all cabbages will produce those smaller side shoot cabbages if you leave the stock in the ground long enough 😊 One of those fun extra harvests only those who grow their own food are able to experience. ❤
My eggplants are producing soo much I can't give them away. But the Japanese bottles have found my greenbeans and beets. Your gardens are beautiful. Love watching your videos. I found d you o ly this weekend am am watching your older videos.
Love to see your kids, being kids and playing in the mud! Brings back a lot of good memories!
❤️❤️❤️ nothing like some good mud play!
We all go thru seasons where the garden can get away from us. Mine is at that point this year. I will be having a k ee replacement on the 20th of this month. Luckily I put in a few raised beds 2 years ago or I would gave had to forgo gardening at all. 7 raised beds and 3 greenstalks give me all that I need.
I had to rewind and rewind to listen to what you were saying about the passion vine. Here in Australia passionfruit are revered for fruit salad and lots of recipes as well as fresh eating. I have a large yellow passionfruit and yes the flower only lasts a day or two, but the following fruit is wonderful. The yellow one is called a Hawaiian Passionfruit but the ordinary brown smaller one is the most prolific. It grows without much assistance over fences and any other building in a yard. What do you do with the flower, cannot fathom why you would pick them off.
Those carrots look great! I'm living vicariously through your garden videos as mine did not pan out this year and it makes me so happy to see yours thriving. 🖤
Sorry off topic, but thought I'd share.
I'll tell you that I'm a big fan of breakfast burritos but recently I have been getting a bit bored with them. So this last round I made for the freezer I decided to take pancake mix and make it like bread dough and rolled it out like a thick tortilla and added my fixing into it and folded it more like a hot pocket then fried them in a pan with a little butter. They were amazing and highly recommended.
I also tried a "recipe" I saw on a short which was for a chocolate mousse. In a blender add 2 1/2 cups water and 1 cup chocolate chips, blend for 2 mins. Put in a bowl and refrigerator for 12 hours. Fast, easy and tasted pretty good.
Well these are so creative! Definitely something I’d like to try, thank you! ☺️
Your harvest was great! Some of my favorite times in the garden is when hubby and I are working together. It’s fun to harvest together, seeing produce like potatoes come out of the ground or picking peas and beans or corn. It fills me up to enjoy the fruit of our labor together. It was fun to see Matt harvesting carrots with you too!
My first garden was 2020 and I have tried without success to grow carrots and beets. I’m not wasting time on beets anymore. I don’t care for them but hubby does. So I’ll just buy them for him. I’m going to try a fall crop of carrots using a seed tape that I heard someone mention. If that doesn’t work out then I’m not trying to grow those anymore either and will buy them instead from Azure which is what I’ve done the last few years. It not only takes up valuable bed space but time, energy and resources that I can use elsewhere. It has always felt defeating and wasteful to me. I’m learning this year it’s okay to dial it back for whatever the reason. Success can and is defined in different ways for many different reasons. You’ve helped me with that too and I’m appreciative of that.
Thank you for sharing your garden with us. God Bless you Kelsey, and your beautiful family. 🤗
Your yard and garden look so lovely with the new clearing and fence work you did!
great harvest, Enjoy!
Thank you friend! Blessings! ❤️
Beautiful garden and harvest! I am so happy for you and your family. Enjoy your bountiful harvest.
Lovely tour like you I love lots and lots of flowers in my vegetable garden ❤️❤️ Great harvesting 👏👏👏👏👏🎉👍🎉👍🎉🎉👍 Love from the UK x
Love your garden chaos...lol! This year I stuck veggie plants everywhere I could find a spot. Been doing a lot of hose dragging. 🙃🙃🙃
Oh my goodness, immediately clicked when I saw that absolutely MASSIVE carrot harvest. I could only imagine the satisfaction of pulling those out. I am in awe of the beauty and the abundant harvest, those squash at the end!!!
P.S. I have heard other harvest the cabbage head and smaller heads forming if left in the ground, very interesting.
I was giddy with excitement 😂 so satisfying! Thank so much! I had heard about smaller heads forming after but not all at the same time! I counted 14!
@@seedandsparrowhomestead 14! That’s crazy, guess that beefcake just wanted to get it over with 😂
Any harvest is a great day!!🎉
I agree! ❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing, Kelsey. I really enjoy your videos.
Nice haul, everything looks beautiful.
Thank you so much ☺️ ❤️
Wow, I want harvest carrot and cabbage, great!!!❤❤
Thanks for watching! ❤️
Lucky number 38 to day to like the video. I've shared and here is my comment! I am so happy to see your cabbage! Hugs from Esquimalt
Hello sweet friend! you're amazing! Thank you so much, blessings!
Good information about carrot seed saving. I have so many packs of carrot seed that I haven’t saved any yet but it would be fun to compare production from home saved and bought seed.
That would be fun! I always want to do those experiments but I’m finding I need 2 of me 😂
@@seedandsparrowhomestead I hear ya 😂
Just wondering if you ever let your passionflowers fruit and have passion fruit! They are delicious!
I don’t believe they fruit in my zone, not enough time!
@@seedandsparrowhomestead oh bugger! They are delicious and fruit like crazy in Australia!
They fruit here in the south also. Can find them growing wild. Make delicious jelly.
Lol, did I just hear you say you’re canning carrots. I know they’re your favorite canned vegetable,😉 I made some hummus yesterday and we’re eating our baby carrots and cucumber with it this week as our afternoon snack.
Let that poor boy wash daddy’s truck 😂
Haha! Yeppers, can’t get enough of them 😉 in all honesty, they have their place! Yum! That sounds like the best snack right now… it’s 98f 🥴 Grant did get to wash the truck… after mommy got her carrots washed 😂
I bet doing the fireworks is a big ol adrenaline rush! How fun!
Huge rush! We got to hand light them all and you just constantly gave these big “whooshes” happening all around you!
My husband and I have tried several times to grow radishes and celery the radishes just vine off with no radishes and the celery I start off of the bottoms of celery put them in water and let them root and put them in the ground but seem to get really dark green kinda bitter.
What a beautiful bounty ❤
Thank you! We are grateful ☺️ ❤️
Good crop. 😊😊
We are very thankful! ❤️
Your garden is a mess and I LOVE IT!!!!!
It’s controlled chaos 😂
Clicked over from another video SO fast! 😊
Aw you're the best! Thanks so much for being here friend! ❤
Thanks for sharing your beautiful harvest. ❤️ Love your mustard colored door in the background. Any idea what the color is called? Thanks!!
Are you freeze drying some raspberries too? What an amazing (also a bit overwhelming) harvest. Great job.
Someone commented on your surprise potato harvest under a three rivers video the other day 😀
Ahhh, I’m always blown away when I see my name or channel pop up somewhere! 😳🤯
First time viewer, love your garden.
Hello new friend! So glad you’re here and thank you! ☺️ ❤️
Glad to see you have a pitch fork for harvesting... 😂
Lol, I know so many people have told me I needed one so I finally got one and I love it!
❤
Your channel was recommended by Plow and Pantry!
Awesome! That’s so kind of her! I hope you enjoy what you find. Blessings new friend!
What is a passion flower. How do u use it?
Can you tell me what the big raspberries are called?
Joan J from Nourse Farms ☺️
I love your sandals. Where did you get them?
You have a beautiful garden
Thank you!! My sandals are from Old Navy ☺️
@@seedandsparrowhomestead I know where I am going tomorrow 😁
You might not think that your harvest is great,but it showed you tried. Everyone around the country is struggling in there garden. I live in Florida My friends with gardens lost everything with flooding from Hurricane Debby! Sad year for all.
I have harvested two batches of carrots and both came out super bitter. I am not sure what I am doing wrong..
Could be you harvested too early for some varieties or it could be too hot for them. They start to taste bitter from the stress of heat. Look into different varieties, there are hundreds, find one for your region and one that says it is a sweet tasting variety. Some are naturally more sweet than others! Hope this helps ❤️
What is good apps for bugs and plants identifier
We like “picture this” ☺️
Question, do you pick all the pasionflowers? Or do you leave some for fruit?
I pick them all! I don’t believe they would produce fruit in my climate, we don’t have a long enough growing season ☺️
Do you ever leave your passionflower to go to fruit?
I don’t, I’m pretty sure my growing season and climate would not allow time for it.
@seedandsparrowhomestead you should look for a Maypop (Passiflora. incarnata) variety. It's perennial and hardy enough for Pennsylvania. 😁
@@JoannFraserMurray oooh! I’ll do that! Thank you much ☺️❤️
@@JoannFraserMurray You might have just changed the game for me, thank you🖤
