We moved down South to connect with our roots, acquire more land to garden, and fix up an old log cabin. Renovating and farming have always been in our blood! It fuels our passion, purpose, completes our need for exercise, and strengthens our connection with Mama Earth. Come along with us as we show you our homestead life.

I'm so glad you are starting a homestead! Mullein is the plant I used to boost my defense with the virus. It doesn't ship well. Email me at stendyfarm@gmail.com and I will send you a picture of it. It grows everywhere. You've probably seen it on the side of the road. Please include your address and I will send you a piece of apple mint.
Hi ❤ from Chicago. Love you're inspired food forest. Lol have a little 1/2 plot in a community garden. I love it!!! I totally agree you. Let the garden do what it does. Grow your own food. And to share. Can't stop the blessings. Insha Allah we will have a homestead one day. We are both in our 60's. And believe in self sufficient. God bless yall.
I'm in 8b , you have a lovely place. Take down a few more trees. Don't use manure compost thats whats killing your plants. Farmers spray something called Grazon on the weeds and the cows eat those weeds and then poop out the herbicide. This herbicide is in manure from Home Depot etc and this is killing plants. Herbicides kill all plants not just weeds. Go watch the video by Deep South Homestead on RU-vid called "No manure in the Garden??" He tells you about using Black Cow and other manures. Also you need major Peat moss in the soil. Georgia soil is hydrophobic in some areas, especially near the coast and the water does not hold add mulch and peat moss. Good luck.
Yes I heard about Grazon taking out a lot of folks' gardens. The horse manure I use comes my neighbor and I know what she feeds her horses so I trust it. Thank you for commenting!
Heya... Please consider covering your Tomatoes (and other plants that can't handle the direct sun) with a 40% shade cloth (or similar) from a height about equal to the maximum that they would be allowed to grow or a little higher. They do much better when they are not in direct sunlight. It might sound odd, but excess sun will make them grow slower and often cause wilting and leaf bleaching too. As an experiment, you could also try shading a small section to see if it really helps. Since the cloth might block rain, you might need to adjust water.
I’m so happy that RU-vid recommended your channel. It’s nice to learn from experienced gardeners. I’ll look forward to part two of this experiment, as I am a new subscriber to your channel. Peace and blessings to you and yours.
What a beautiful homestead! That’s awesome that you are growing your tree from your former home. Fred lives on. I hope Elmira bounces back and thrives. I love that family tradition. I used mullein throughout the outbreak also. It is an amazing herb. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Happy growing!
The herb "Yellowroot" commonly called "Goldenseal", I have read that "Goldenseal" has several benefits on a medicinal venue. Stendyfarms, Thank you for sharing your vlog journey to this platform: May you, your husband & family enjoy a bountiful wholesome harvest!
