From Drab Grass to Most Beautiful Edible Garden - Garden Planning 

This channel reminds me so much of PBS, and that is one of the highest compliments I could ever give because I absolutely love PBS!

I've only recently discovered your videos and it was like opening a treasure trove! I adore your dreamy "old world" styling and the poetic way you present the information. Your work is top notch quality. So thankful I stumbled on your channel!

I Hope you know how positively you have impacted my life! Watching your videos calm me down when I’m upset, while educating me on things I’m interested in!

Everything from the content to the filming, the editing, the music... is all incredible. Amazing work.

I clicked the like button before watching the video, and I'm not disappointed at all!!!

you sir are living a dream, I`m still in my late teens but when I get older I wish to be like you

Seeing your home from before you moved in gave me so much hope.. the possibility that my yard could look like that ❤

A garden must be appreciated through time too. There isn't a single point in time where you can sit in a garden and see all of the beauty it holds. There's always something dormant, always something waiting to take advantage of *next* week when no one else is being beautiful in that time. So to take it all in, you have to spend more than one visit.

Obrigada! So gorgeous those colors!!! You can always paint the chainlink black and change its finials for a different look. Your garden loves you back!! You have very happy plants!

All of your videos, old and new, are great! Gardening teaches patience is so true.

Amen to all your insights on gardening

Thank you for your charming videos. Finally someone who feels gardening as I do from their soul.

I always pray for patience...so God gave me a garden 🌻🌻🌻

You are a sweet sweet young man. Such beauty you find in nature! I always have had gardens! Now I’m older and disabled so I love watching your gardening. Thank you!

A garden should be much more than a garden of chores. Thank you for producing this - its a great message and I'm glad you've reminded people of it.

Beautiful! Rudbeckia will never look boring again to me. Loved that sea of yellow.

Yesterday morning i found your channel ....and I'm waiting....your videos and i love how you turning a place to a beautiful place to live to breathe . Love watching your videos... And soon I will finish watching all you videos...keep showing us your beautiful works....love from India 🇮🇳❤️❤️

" Even a bit wild". I really like that, that gives me hope, because my lawn really looks a bit wild right now, just started growing mixed plants after moving in new place these 3 months. My nursery was so messy in the beginning. Did the no tilling, covering weed in the lawn with cardboard box sheets and dried leaves from the residential area trees (the local administration removes dead leaves regularly, thus free stuff with close to zero effort!)

With this video you have changed my mind....let me explain. Last year I planted my first garden. It was small but beautiful and I could hardly believe how much this little garden help our food budget. This winter I have spent almost all my time planning and planting for a new garden that would overtake our back yard. I told my husband that eventually I would like to have all of our property plated out in edible plants and flowers. This week, in fact, I told him....I'm not sure I want to plant out the front yard....maybe we should leave it as grass. Then I saw this video...I really want to plant out the front yard...It is my south facing yard....and I want to do it NOW! All of your videos are inspiring but this one is Magical!

We enjoy the information and the style with which you present it so much Siloe. We have 2 young boys who were left in silent thought at the end of this episode. Thank you for encouraging us all to embrace a deeper more profound connection. Haha and please understand that for those 2 to be moved to still silence so early in the day is a significant achievement!!!

i enjoyed this video so much.It got me inspired even emotional..the last seconds of it gave me the chills .thank you so much .

Yes! This is how I've started. My front garden is where the edible growing is at. I started pretty small (and unsucessfully) 4 years ago with tomatos. This year I have x7 small raised beds of edibles with a perimeter of bee friendly flowering plants. I'm working with the no dig method to avoid disturbing the integrity of the earth, I have learnt a lot already this year and have kept logs and photos so I can keep improving year on year.

Ok...so...how am I tearing up at the end of this video (happy tears)? This is the first video I’ve ever watched from you. This is my dream for my garden. And I even wanted to watch the ad. Ok, safe to say, I’m hooked already. And did you paint that garden painting?! Stunning work.

Your garden is beautiful, and practical.

Wow! You play the sitar?! 🌟😍 Also the garden is beautiful! Please show us your flowers in detail. ☺️

Thank You So much!!! Telling people about Your Suburban Homestead 😊❤

Love this sooooooo much!!! I only discovered your videos today. Patience and magic!

What a great video at the perfect time of year. Just planting a new flower garden. Very inspiring. Thanks. "If your garden looks like everyone's garden, it's not yours." Sounds perfect for an etsy shop!!!!

You are so right , my rose garden started with a vision. I did it all by myself , it’s a special place of peace and happiness.

A garden is really an expression of a person's creativity .I agree with you.

If you were the crepe tree, I would be a bee visiting.🐝🐞🐝🐞 Your understanding is so familiar🦋🐛. I really appreciate it. It is hard for me to put in words what the work is that I do.🐌🐌 I am planning a LONG term garden that gives back for generations to come.🌾⚘ Just like the land we bought. It had a basic beginning 🍎🍏🍐🍇started by another planted heart. At any rate, Great videos ! Yes to reuse, patient care understanding of life needs and love of all that surrounds us! 🌺❤🧡💛🌻🌷⚘🍀🍀

absolutely beautiful in every sense of the word such creativity

What a gorgeous poetic flower garden! I could spend hours there just soaking up all that beauty...

Spraying neem oil on plants prevents pests as it is a natural pesticide . Mix it with water and spray on your plants directly . Works for me every time 😊😊

I love this video! I couldn’t have said this better. Your home is part of your dreams and therefore, part of your heart.

Hi, i'm french and i don't understand all but i like your way of life and your natural behaviour. Thanks a lot for your job.

Love love love your work in the gardening and your videos. I started buying fruit trees last year and everything was in ugly buckets and cut up 50 gallon containers. This year things are liking more organic, nowhere near yours but it's feeling more like me. Blueberry bushes, aronia, peach, apricot, cherry and apple trees (lot of dwarfs) and even though I have kids I still feel like a proud mama watching all this grow too. Worm hotel too...lol...can't forget my little wrigglers.

My favorite new channel; thank you for touching all of the 🔑 elements; looking forward to future content; God bless you.

I appreciate your videos so much - not just for the great information and advice, but also the beautiful cinematography and hearing your philosophies about gardening. The last minutes of this video touched me more than any poetry, because you absolutely nailed how I feel about my garden. Thanks for your channel, and greetings from Germany! :)

Can you make a video on what your flowers are exactly, where they are planted and why? Thanks.

Magic, poetry and beauty are essential to life and the garden.

I agree with your thinking. You have to think outside the box a lot with gardening. I love trying new plants and making my garden my own. It's my favorite creative outlet. In the spring, summer, and fall I am out side. I love your stuff. I watch and rewatch your shows throughout the winter. My garden is my home.❤️👩🏻‍🌾

Beautiful garden , thanks so much for sharing

Thanks for the courteous heads up about the commercial!

This video makes me wonder when you will direct an indie movie like the secret life of gardens your videos are my guilty pleasure with a box of chocolate. So lovely and thought provoking. keep it up thanks for the food as always

Cant wait to have my own little cottage home to garden and bake fresh pastries all day🌿🥺

Siloe, I have been subscribed since close to the beginning, but only within the last year or so have you blossomed into an amazing channel. Yes, you are a gardening channel, but it's honestly so much more. I feel your artistry is center stage, surrounding your gardening in such a beautiful way. You are a true inspiration and I thank you for not only your hard work, but the beauty you bring to the world.

Beauty & Practicality. I love that!

I am growing in raised beds in the middle of Denver! I love your channel! Good luck guys!

This is garden movie trailer.. Love it..

AWESOME GARDEN.

Thank you Siloe, what beautiful visions presented in a magical space. Sharing a combination of ideas, knowledge, and action are truly the gifts gained. Thank you again.

That grape arch and fence oof 😍

everything about this is so lovely and magical. I love your suspenders too.

Inspirational video. Still waiting for the snow to melt in Minnesota but the house if filling with the plants that will be planted in the garden, hopefully, in 1½ months. Gostei!

Very lush and I am inspired.

Another great mindful video!

One of my favorite videos yet!! I enjoyed very much seeing the progress of your garden, I find that the most rewarding part in life is not the destination but the road to it, and imagining how you want something to be and achieving it, is beautiful! I planted flowers on the perimeter and interior of my garden and black beans together with tomatoes and cucumbers, they look very happy! *Thank you for the inspiration and brilliant content!* :)

Great content. I also appreciate that you told us there was an ad coming up. It made it less abrupt! Also your garden is very inspiring, I’ll try it myself this year. And Hi from Germany 👋

I so needed this video today! we are getting a pretty bad snow storm today in northern mn and it feels as if spring will never come..... just seeing your beautiful garden is wonderful ♡ And has me dreaming of being in the dirt, and making this place my abode ♡

I'm so happy I found your channel! So inspiring! I can't wait til spring to do more plantings.

This make my life more happy today. Is have been a very hard days for me but your videos make me happy all the time. Love you garden

I am so glad I found your channel. I agree with your thoughts and beliefs in gardening. It’s a special place, it is home.

OMG your Chanel is awesome! I too live in Maryland and dabbled in gardening over the years and had almost given up but finding your Chanel has given me new life, thank you so much. Your videos are top quality

Hi Siloe, i just wait every Sunday, excitedly for your video upload, today's video was simply superb, loved the painting of your garden and btw you play the Sitar why am i not surprised !! Lol ☺

grew up in MD, the black eyed susan and crape myrtle really make it feel like a true Maryland garden :)

Love, Love LOVE your videos! Love and Light from The Bahamas.

Your videos keep getting better and better somehow. Thank you for all of the hard work! I know you had to of spent an enormous amount of time just to make this one video. A+ quality....

as always so GREAT to see and hear you creations: in the garden , house , on canvas/paper , music ....

I have just come across your channel and it's everything I've recently been looking for - inspiration, motivation, art, home, and magic. Thankyou so much, can't wait to watch your other videos.

Wow so amazing

This is one if the best videos I've seen on garden construction philosophy. Thank you

I'm sooooo addicted to your videos!!! Thank you for sharing. I have my own gardens, but I'm learning so much. 🌻🍎🥦🍉🍐⚜💜

I know that the flower bulbs in my future food plot are sprouting. I can't wait to plant some seeds - flowers, herbs, and vegetables - and hopefully trees and bushes.

life doesn't end outside the borders of our garden, so I think it's a good idea to at least have a think about integrating other people into the design and maintenance of our garden to help them in their careers.

Such beautiful philosophy and wisdom. Thank you Siloe. May our gardens be as beautiful as the teaching you've imparted :)

Beautifully done~

Hi am soo happy i discovered your chanel.I can totally relate to your videos and its exactly what i have been looking for . Keep up the great work :)

It isn't surprising that I instantly like your videos, professional to say the least too once I set upon the first one. This one takes the biscuit. Simply amazing and educational too. Your video skill is unquestionably and your planting skill and knowledge, wow what can I say? Keep it up and will be watching more videos for sure. Hope will start mine at some stage. I have a sizeable jungle in Borneo and hope to do some polyculture there one day, I can't wait for this project to start sooner. Your kind of knowledge skills would be handy there for sure.

Bellissimo il tuo impegno.

Beautiful 😍!!!!

Wow! Your garden is beautiful! Thank you for the tip to try! I am also a Colorado gardener and appreciate any advise I can get!

Today is the first time I've seen a Suburban Homestead video "recommended for you" by RU-vid. It was a shock! What?! I missed one?? Ok... 4hours before the sun came up. Phew. PS although I let the ads run....im not really watching ;) I'm reading the comments and great suggestions from other viewers :)

Hello! I recently subscribed to your channel and wanted to express my appreciation for all the great videos you have created. I have only recently begun to embark on the journey of creating RU-vid videos that focus on perennial gardening and living well/family life. If you have any tips I would be happy to hear them. Also, I feel like we have so much in common, I am also an artist, love creating music with my family, love everything French country, vintage, and of course cottage gardens are my favorite. I also happen to be Brazilian 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦living in Canada. Only the hardy survive in my zone 3 climate, hence my love of hardy perennials. Keep up the great work!🌸

Your video editing skills are on another level

Pretty! Love your painting too! When I had space for a vege patch, I made a no dig garden and mixed up all the vegetables and flowers. That way I made a wee micro environment that looked after itself. I live in Australia and I put pvc piping, hidden, in the garden and the blue tongue lizards would hide there and eat the snails. Sort of a similar idea to yours. I couldn’t imagine sharing with ground hogs! But we do have feral rabbits, dear and kangaroos that eat gardens, depending on where you live. Enjoy your videos, thank you ❤️

so beautiful!

Hello 👋🏽 I’m a new member to the the Suburban Homestead! I have been container gardening for about 3 years now ! I love watching these videos !!! Keep it up thank you !

Love it! so do agree.

What a dream ❤️

I LOVED this video. Thank you for inspiring me even further to make my garden a place of magic.

Wow wow wow. It's packed with information and so wonderful to watch. Thank you

Hi Siloe, I just stumbled on your channel a few days ago and already watched quite a few videos! I loved your idea of showing how to grow a crop and then showing how to cook a recipe using what you harvested! Keep them coming!

Sempre tenho a impressão que você vai começar há falar português da nada!😅 Você tem um jeito de Brasileiro. O seu jardim é deslumbrante e seus vídeos são muito úteis! Obrigada

Your house is great!

All your videos are so well done! Thank you for continuing to produce them.
