okay so you definitely deliver all the tree-based content we're here for, but man that scrub jay with its moment of introspection really stole the spotlight this time. (post-video edit: but is this your most fun project yet? heck yea. and I'm sure mr birb would agree. way to honour the old farm!)
I've never seen so much passion, honesty, and transparency with a creator who just jumped in without being blindsighted by money or views, you're a one of a few gems on this platform
fr! bro has nearly 1mil subs but hes still humble as hell. And while I will ALWAYS watch sponsors and not skip through it so they can get their money they need, since im not able to financially support anyone...Sometimes its nice to see someone doing something out of pure passion that they do for a hobby instead of monetizing it
There are so many fun parts to this video! From the fence parts, to the bowl carving, the chatty scrub jay, to the candy making, I think this is my favorite video you've made so far! SCIENCE!! ❤❤❤❤
I love the vibe of your videos, always so relaxing. I'm actually planting a few hundred seeds around my family's farm here, so hopefully in a few years we'll have some nice dark walnut trees to enjoy

if you get young branches of birch when they are still dark with white spots and peel off the bark, you are met with a moist green twig that smells like root beer and when you boil it with water for a while it and sweeten it, put it in the fridge, it’s tastes really good, enjoy it with some ice. i’d like to see you try it
Oh man, I love how that bowl turned out!! I was just looking at some old trees in my grandparents' yard thinking of you - they have an old, old black walnut tree that we used to harvest from to feed the squirrels over the winter. Thank you for all of your videos giving us more information on the amazing giants in our yards!
I've been really stressed the past few days, thinking through some big life decisions, and opening youtube to find not just a new Justin the Tree Man video, but a Justin the Tree Man video with chatoyancy on the thumbnail!? Exactly what I needed
I have a turning tip for you. Use a piece of cloth/plastic between the wood and the chuck. Is will prevent the wood from being colored by the metal and potential markings. I saw the famous Richard Raffan do this in a video and i have tried it myself. I love your content
Did you say that was your grandpappy's land at one time? What a beautiful place! Definitely has the Old American West vibe out there... The Juniper bowl came out great!
What an action packed addition of what’s in that pile!! Please continue to bring in more content on this channel. It’s what I look forward to the most on my deployment! Especially the attention to our winged friends in the sky!! Would love to see more content related to your fascination of birds! We have mourning doves here in Iraq just like back in the states, but sing a completely different song than what we are accustomed to in the US!!! Keep rocking it, partner!!
@Mike Jantz Thanks for serving sir, much respect. Amazing that you are finding Justin's channel all the way on the opposite side of the planer. I am Very interested to hear the mourning doves of iraq, do you have a video of the birds?
Absolutely incredible. As a local Ogdenite I absolutely love the local element of your videos. I love learning what I can do with local floral and fauna. Keep it up.
such an amazing example of ur content. exploration, native plant appreciation, an interesting project, and a fun little treat to go with it. i always love your attitude and your enthusiasm. also really enjoyed hearing you talk a bit more about what you were doing when you were turning the bowl. fantastic job 💜
yknow it didn't occur to me that i knew so little about my namesake till i watched this! i'll have to get myself a juniper cuttin board sometime, the wood really is just plain gorgeous
augh I watched like 3 videos to make sure I pronounced it right and couldn't get a straight answer from anyone lol, oh well, it's not one of my videos unless I sweat over a scientific pronunciation for 20 minutes and then just do it wrong anyway
@@Justinthetrees Hahaha. No big deal. I only bothered to say something because I figured you’d care. I used to research the evolution of dioecy so it just stood out.
this is definitely one your prettier projects, and videos in general! the old farm has so many nice wildflowers growing in it and that candy in the bowl looks gorgeous!
Those mountains in the background are so beautiful- love the reminder of how beautiful America can be. We’re in stick season where I am, so I’m incredibly jealous
Yeah!!! A new video! Really enjoyed the bowl. The candy! Everything! And, dude! You gotta sell t-shirts with ‘What’s in that Pile’ and ‘Chatoyancy’! I’d wear them everywhere! 👍
That Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay (had to look it up) made some excellent points and their singing is just beautiful. Those fence posts didn't look like they'd yield anything to my eye and I love that you proved me wrong. Thank you for another great video!
I am watching the video, and while i watch i opened WoW to play a little and let me say, the video with the music in the background while Justin is shaping the wood, is something else ♥
This was great and now I also have a new kind of candy to try making. Random side note: Blueberries and Red Cabbage have a chemical that changes color in the same way. I bet a blueberry variant of the candy would work out ok.
as an australian, its insane to me how close some people live to mountains. ive never never been on a large mountain, in a rainforest, or at a large canyon before. ive seen some pretty big creeks, large hills, and a huge desert, but god i wish i could visit america, canada, europe etc.
Man, did I need this. An absolute treasure of a video, love the vase, and the message hit me hard. I was literally knitting as I watched this, and I realized that through my entire 2023, I don't think before that knitting project, I had ever made something...just to *make something.* Definitely about to spend some time goofing off with yarn like I used to, and starting off the new year with a little more hope. Thanks, man ❤
Man i love wood carving, first thing i ever did was with a straight stick, a pocket knife, and three and a half hours. And it was just a sharpened stick
I, too, am firmly on the side of pro-juniper. 🌲💕 And redbuds!!! The cherry blossoms and apple blossoms have passed but the redbuds are hanging on. Those candies came out so wonderful. 😊
It’s 2 am, I’m watching this about to fall asleep and all of a sudden at 0:13 I hear him shout “MILES!” (My name is Myles) and I did NOT expect that. But, it means I’m probably awake enough to finish the video now, so it works out lol
You create such easy watching content, quite possibly my new favourite creator! Keep it up, I love that you educate us while letting our minds focus on the satisfying patterns in wood ❤️🍃🌲
Sagebrush steppe ecologist here, and damn I love me some juniper! I've always wanted to collect some and make gin. Mmm! Affectionate sidenote: dioecious and monoecious are pronounced die-eeshus and mono-eeshus :) they're funky words but I dig them, they mean "two houses" and "one house" respectively. Thanks for the always incredible vids!
The amount of sugar in candy really shouldn surprise me anymore, but it always does. Ill be trying your recipe and be on the lookout for juniper fences in my area.
