LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!! Randy it looks amazing. Hey you need to have someone to get the drone and show off the community's. I'm so happy for all of you that are lucky enough to live here what a dream come true. I love watching you all fixing up your yards they are coming along beautifully. Sending love to all from Tena in Illinois. I sure wish you'd come north Randy we have the University of Illinois here. We have a lot of seniors here that need a safe place to live also.
You can also go to their address on Google maps and look at 'satellite view'. The images aren't updated frequently (the Grove is just a field of dirt), but you can get an idea how they are laid out.
Wait a minute! You just got those trees in yesterday and you've already planted them? Holy Smokes, ya'll aren't lettin' any grass grow under your feet are ya? I've been trying to watch all of your videos that I can. It's almost like a job. Just please don't send me a W-2!! Hahaha! The place looks amazing Randy and Amanda!!
Making a dream come true and give to these low income folks a chance to have pride and safety in a tiny home community the widows and women that need a small safe place to live , god bless Randy.
@@d.a.sawyer6070 I'm talking about a few widows that are old and fixed incomes or retirement . Don't get you're panties up in a bunch . I know there are a few of you making money on B and B and you complain the most about the progress on Randys project , because your not making the money you wanted on you're little tiny home investments, poor thing.
Love watching the ITH communities improvements and all the amazing ITH Tiny Homes. Randy's audio level is much better today!! (than the last few releases)
You two are amazing!!!! Thank you so much for your generosity toward your fellow men and woman needing quality affordable homes and living communities. Bless you both!!!!
I live in north Florida and we always wrap our young palms to protect them when we get cold. We got down to 17 degrees last December and were still able to save some. That sounds like a good idea to use the heaters.
🤔 got a point.. Beach and sand fun in the sun.. Running on the beach, playing volleyball on the beach, sun bathing, and many more activities and relaxational ideas if thats evan a word.. Creative thinking seems to be part of this dream Tiny Home Beach Town in East Tennessee. So I would hope the Palm Trees aren't the only Beach Reality.. Tiki is an idea too ya know😊
holy moley!!! that's a lot of palm trees! you better have a heating plan! we almost lost our 2 coconut palms last winter in swfl when it hit 32 for a weekend. they look great!!
Water the roots systems well before the freeze hits, that will protect the root system from freezing, the tops might freeze and die, but the tree will bounce back in spring. I used to work in a large nursery, that is how we instructed customers, and how we did it too.
I live in north Florida. There are a number of ways to wrap & protect them during a freeze that doesn't include cables. There are also a few products you can spray on the trees & fronds to protect from frost. Anyone who has a tree nursery could give the best advice.
I hope I didn’t scare anybody or upset anyone by talking about the palmetto bugs i.e. roaches. Because it’s just something that comes along with having palm trees and if you take care of the outside of your home and round the trees and take care of your flowerbeds it’s not a big problem I just wanted people to be aware when you saw him you know it’s not a big deal. When those trees open up and they really start to spread their canopy you’re going to enjoy them so much. Because they are beautiful and Randy stream for the beach Will be everything he hoped for. I wished and I lived in East Tennessee right there by incredible tiny homes. I keep hoping for I live in deep east Texas someone will have a dream like Randy. All of you who live in incredible tiny houses village really lucky. Enjoy your palm trees enjoy the forest the mountains I love it I watch every episode I can.
❤❤❤❤ I had to get to here to explain this '. When ya Grin ya should finish it completely .....'. I see we're doing this together!!!! My face can only handle just so much room for smiling !!!! You're all so much fun to be with !!!!!!!!!!. .
Randy, I lived 23 years in the Phoenix area and we had below 32* many times. But it has not worked in Roswell, NM. They freeze. In Cambria Pines on the Pacific near Moro Bay had Pine trees. As does Florida! In fact Palms we’re brought in to Florida. The Pine was indigenous. So plant Pines as an alternative if it doesn’t work. Las Vegas, Nevada has snow and palms too.
Wow! Randy and Amanda the community is really coming together, it looks beautiful! I can't wait to see how each community will have flourished by next year! It's exciting, I love it!😊 I can't wait to come & see it for myself 😀 Blessings 🙏🙌
They look fantastic! hope you can keep them warm through out winter? you Could always wrap the individual Tree Trunks with Bubble wrap for winter? Labour intensive but worth it? 🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴 ❤
Very nice!!! Very original!!! But for me, I would want the Forest on the Mountain in East TN!!! Only because I will be leaving year-round Florida heat for the 4 seasons & woods & mountain lot 50×60!!!! My someday ♥️ dream!!
In florida when there was a freeze threatening the orange groves, helicopters were emplyed to fly back and forth to blow warm air on the trees. Weird, they also hosed down the trees as a layer of ice protected the trees
Palmetto palm trees usually carry palmetto roaches in the bark at their trees. In the winter time they’ll come out and go in your homes. Typically they do not nest in your home but they will come in when the weather gets cold to eat and sometimes lay eggs. They get in your flowerbeds you need to spray your flowerbeds with something like home defense because it’s not harmful to your plants and it will it will kill these bugs but they can really take over a place in no time
I never knew that. Once lived in a big apartment complex and I had roaches. They were the grossest things, and lay so many eggs! My mother at one time lived in Miami and she said they had to put a tent over their home once a year and fumigate it. Roaches in FL are huge, much bigger than in WI. No thanks!
Totally agree the cockroaches and the flying rats turn it into their own personal condos and people don’t know what a flying RAT is. It’s a lousy disease carrying pigeon. 🤢🤮
I’ve been watching since the beginning and couldn’t imagine the beach lol! And here it is . I’ll move there and have some white sand dumped in my yard ,put all my shells and sea glass I’ve collected here on Cape Cod! Then I need a pool !
I'm born raised in CALIFORNIA and 30+ years SANTA CRUZ 🌴🏖️... I will be there someday💕a COTTAGE on the Beach or Mountains I LOVE BOTH... What a LIFE CHANGING thing Ya'll are Doing...I love all of you and what you are Creating, COMMUNITY & FAMILY ❣️🗝️🕊️🌿
It's subtropical in Newport, TN. How do orange groves survive frosts 🤔? Randy has a plan to cover the palms and provide heat, just like they do for orange groves, when the temps drop. It's why he's keeping them together in rows and clusters. As long as they activate their palm protection plan when the temps drop, they should winter through just fine.
Are those Pindo Palms? They can survive in Temps as low as 5°! I believe you mentioned In a video a while back that the Palm trees You purchase for pretty Hardy. You will just have to cover them in winter.
Would love to live there.. I'm new to the site so I may be late to suggest. Will there be Fruit Trees such as oranges, peach, plum, coconut, etc. Gardens that we can plant and produce with healthy benefits to follow. Fresh Fruit and Vegetables in your own backyard would be a blessing to all. These days shopping is insanely expensive for fresh anything and it might not even be local which is not fresh and beneficial. Keep up the Good Work!
I wonder why he didnt choose windmill palms I found out about them at a nursery in Dayton TN that has them growing outside they do well and are considered a cold hardy palm. The person at the nursery said they just wrap the trunk in christmas lights in the winter and that gives enough heat to help protect them.
They are actually very close hardiness wise. Many Palmettos survived where windmills died in the Texas freeze. He will protect them as he said so it will be no problem
@anonymous-ir3tf the guy says in a video he will build an enclosure for them. I have no Idea with ITH is . Projecting? Nope. You are the one clearly angry at the project leader, but you have deleted that comment.
I'm in Florida and I have those palms on my property. You can have them free, but you have to dig them up and haul'em.😊 OMG now your bombarded by Floridiots whoops I mean Floridians😂😂😂
Who is going to prune the dead fronds, someone from the shop? Last prune of my 25+ foot Mexican fan palm 10 yrs ago - which I've now put off -- was $200. Also, my dead palm is going to cost me $1k to remove. I hope El Nino doesn't topple it over on my house before I can get it done. I've just been concerned and wondering about the plentitude of palms there and the maintenance costs for you.
Canopy's and heaters for palm trees.....why put yourself through all the unnecessary trouble of growing palms in TN???? Here in AZ we don't plant Evergreen trees for the same reason. Love you Randy but i really think this palm tree fantasy will end up being a waste of $$$$ and time....prove me wrong.
These are not the enormous palms you see in Florida. These are a smaller variety. Time will tell how well they'll do, but so far he's only lost 2 from the first 84 planted. The climate in Newport is subtropical.
Maybe he can put them around the outer perimeter, then, or the lake. Do you have a garden group that can talk it over with him, so you can get what you want?
Hate to tell you, but TN is not FL. You have to be kidding me regarding those blocks of wood those boxes are sitting on. I hope that isn't permanent. Didn't you say homes would be anchored down?
@@anonymous-ir3tf Those homes will not stay leveled then as those chunks of wood rot. Not sure what he uses to cover the bottom of those boxes. It should be something metal, or material bugs cannot chew thru. I'd bet that all the plumbing coming into the box underneath has gaps. Hopefully, it was properly sealed up. Those bugs will eat up anything that is wood on the inside and they do lots of damage. I follow another channel, bushradical, who builds his own small cabins and he ALWAYS puts his cabins on cement blocks! In Michigan and Alaska!
