Thank goodness I basically live in the garden now and I was outside to hear her scream, Kim needed my help - in a pretty funny way. #thedenmanhomestead #garden #chickencoop
I never got to see Elora a whole lot in the past, now that you guys have your own channel, I get to see her more often. She’s definitely one of my favorites now. She’s such a loving, gentle and caring soul. You all are blessed, Denmans!
Totally agree and I love her style. She’s a little girl and dresses so beautifully and not trying to be 20. She’s so helpful and involved. ❤ Awesome sweetie!!
The innocence in Elora and her love for the baby chicks is so heartwarming. So glad to see the kids outside enjoying the beautiful family and farm animals.
I think your garden is beautiful, and I admire both you and Buddy for all the work that you have put into this garden. I hope it grows a plenty for you.
Looking forward to watching your garden grow. Glad you were there to rescue Kim. I'm loving the videos the Morrow Hill clan is putting out that includes other members of the family. Ya'll have the best day possible
Oh, my poor Kim. I'm glad you were out to help. Otherwise, who knows how long she would be stuck in there. How does your garden grow? At the Denman house, huge, wild, crazy, fun times, full of love and happiness. It's great to see others help, encourage, and share. In honesty you don't have to have a pressure canner to can, you need lots of time. Before pressure canning, everything was waterbath, fermented, smoked, or glassed. U.S. Department of Agriculture determined in 1917 that pressure canning was the only safe method for canning low acid foods without the risk of food poisoning. National presto industries Inc started pressure canners in 1905 for commercial use in 1919 they switched to home use, smaller canners 10 gallon.
Calendula is a good flower for your garden. It attracts bad bug away from your other plants and it has herbal and medicinal benefits. Right up your alley Steph. You could become the neighborhood medicine woman.
The chickens are so sweet & it's great that Elora loves on them every day. They will get so used to her & be so sweet! 👍🐥🐤😊 Thank you for sharing this video with us. 👍🇨🇦😊 Thank goodness there are people around all of the time. Kim locked herself in the chicken coop! 😂🤣🐔😜 I love your videos. 👏😊
It is your garden. It is nobody’s business how much of anything that you plant. If people do not have nice things to say, then they need to keep their mouths shut. ♥️
Suggestion: In the Midwest, we net anything that is notorious for attracting moths like cabbage, broccoli, etc. Never had a problem with them on zucchini or yellow squash. Basically if the moth can't land on the leaves to lay eggs, then it prevents the issue. Actually, those two veggies are like the spam of the vegetable world where we live. Two plants of each will force you to "spam" it to friends, neighbors or anyone who will take the excess off my hands! There's only so much zucchini you need to freeze to make bread, zucchini pancakes, etc. up and above pickling, slaw, and grilling/frying made fresh during the season. I don't like to freeze it to eat as a veggie. Gives it a gross, rubbery texture. ☺️
I hope Kim takes this opportunity to raise that "lock" up higher on the door, so, if it happens again, she'll be able to get herself out. Shouldn't be any problem to move it higher.......LOL.....Lucky you were outside & heard her........
The garden is coming along so beautifully. I bet Kim will keep her phone in her pocket from now on! That was funny! Elora with the chicken was so sweet, she is so gentle with them. 💖💖💖
Thank you for showing us all the progress on your garden, it's coming along beautifully. Poor Kim, she needs to drill a hole, put a wire or rope through, knot big on inside against hole, other end through a hole or around latch board, east to open from inside. Can never get locked in again.
Hey 👋 Denman Clan! What a wonderful video w the dynamic duo! I don't know if it was my suggestion or not re the Marigolds. But am so happy you're doing it. I found it also draws Bees 🐝 who then pollinate the vegs. Win! Win! Re the Squash borers, there must b a natural solution, instead of losing squash. Don't forget not to plant them on the same spot every yr, so as to let detrimental insects die off. Always nice to see your lovely mini me, Elora. How adorable, walking around cuddling the chickens?! Love ❤ you guys. Thx 💙 so much for sharing your adventure w us. Have a blessed 🙌 day. ❤ n prayers Always. Elly 🇨🇦
LMAO with Kim locking herself in the Chicken Coop! Best of luck with your garden Stef! Your such a hard worker, great mother and a fabulous gardener and more!
That garden is so much work. Seems you're doing a great job. We just had what's hopefully our last snowstorm. Just when we were hoping for a spring melt. It's comforting to see the greenery showing up in Texas. It will be a while for us. ❤Elora! ❤ What a kind thing to do! Comforting each and every chicken. Maybe Kim needs an alarm in each of her assorted sheds. 😉😁 I think she was more flustered than she let on! Wow! Morrow food with garlic added. That's a miracle. He he he. Take care Denman 's . 🇨🇦❤️🙋🏼♀️🇨🇦
Your Garden is awesome. Elora loving on the different Chickens is adorable. Seeing Kim stuck in the Chicken house holding that Duck 🤣 but I did feel bad for you, Kim. Wow a great Dinner good way to end the video. ♥️&🙏
I have done plenty of fencing in my time but I have never made a song for it.....I did string together alot of..."choice" words....and I mean A LOT. But now I have a song on repeat in my head about fencing... thanks to you, Stephanie, that is a first. However, being a guy of a certain age, I have retired from fencing, along with, hauling hay, ditch digging, and many other things, not because I can't but because I don't want to, so I will not be singing your "Ode to Fencing" while doing that particular chore. By the look on Buddy's face I think Kim will be reminded of that rescue mission more than a few times....
Steph get one of those sprayers to spray the weeds with at Lowe’s order some cold pressed Lemon Grass fill up that sprayer with 1 gallon put 2 tablespoons of lemon grass and 1 teaspoon of liquid dish soap shake it up really good and spray that on your plants and under them to kill off insects do it 3 times a week than 2 times a week than 1 time a week, you should Watch Hollis and Nancy he has so many videos on his garden and shows you how to plant everything and how to kill the insects he’s awesome to watch I’ve been learning a lot from him 😊
My boss kept bringing in Zucchini and squash from his garden. So I would take it home, peel it, shred with a cheese grater, and stack in freezer bags, in my freezer. That was 2 years ago and I still have some 😂 But you can use in soups, stews, casseroles, etc
I’m like Jami, soooo envious of your garden. I live in a rental house so I can’t really plant anything. I love that you caught Kim locked in her chicken coop. 😂 She’s a riot. Hoping for the best on your garden. North MS low is 23 on Saturday night and 25 for Sunday. I think you guys stay a few degrees warmer than we do. Fingers crossed and lots of prayers your garden comes out unscathed. ❤
Love this. Grandma always planted Marigolds all around the edges of the garden. She had a big veggie garden then a big strawberry garden. Pear, apple, cherry and peach trees and grapes. Central Indiana.
You’re garden will produce sooooo much! You could make a small farm stand by your road this summer/fall to sell what you have abundance of. That money can be put back into the garden. Your children could manage it. Also, here in the upper Midwest, I only vertical garden on East edge of garden so as to not block any needed sunlight from south and west. In the south you may have different conditions since your growing season is so much longer. Our season is from May to September
Great video, I can’t wait to see the fruit of your hard labor. I enjoy watching you and Buddy working side by side. The crazy thing is you guys are so mellow together and there’s no bickering or fighting. Keep it up you guys. Your doing an awesome job! 🏆
Stephanie I also have locked myself in my chicken coop. 😅😂. Luckily I always have my phone with me and called a neighbor since my family wasn't home. I was embarrassed but it was funny. Glad you were around to help Kim.
Hey Stephanie and Buddy and Elora 💕 Stephanie I couldn't help but laugh about Kim getting locked in, ❤️ you and Buddy are so funny ❤️ Elora is so cute holding all the chicken's, awesome childhood ❤️ your garden is going to be awesome and I can't wait to see it ❤️ love y'all and God bless you and your family ❤️❤️💞❤️💞
Every summer I cover my brassicas with tulle fabric from the fabric store. This keeps the garden moths from laying eggs on the plants. I hate it when they find their way in and I have green worms on my broccoli.
Steph is so hungry for zucchini lol. Pickled okra is awesome. Pour Buddy is short on words he is so tired lol. All in onr pot cans good in small batches so it doesn't overwhelm you. Buddy lucked out on the suppertime. It looked yummy when Daniel and Lu was cooking it
Kim 😂. I bet from the dor closing the vibration was enough to move that wood handle. Too funny. Happy St Patrick’s Day too. Your garden is looking awesome ❤
Your garden is absolutely gorgeous. I have enjoyed watching you start your plants and now I am looking forward to seeing the crops grow. Great job to the both of you. ❤❤❤
I used to have a garden and I used to have lots of zucchini and made all different zucchini breads, with chocolate chips, with nuts, with pineapple and froze them. Also zucchini pancakes! Tomatoes I made large batches of spaghetti sauce.
You could try pvc pipe for drip irrigation. For all the extra vegetables and fruit you can juice, make smooths, water infusions or even freeze to add to soups later.
Stephanie, just hearing you comment on the squash bug I thought I would share with you some information I have learned throughout the years of gardening. The squash bug is in the soil. The abundance you have planted will bring an increase amount of squash boring bug to your garden, there is no pesticide to kill them.each year. The will multiply more my experience 5 to 7 years not growing vine plants helps. Watch for the bug also in your cucumbers or any vine plants. I pray it’s not a good year for them and your gardens as well. Time will tell.
I locked myself in pen few times. One time in summer my wife wasn’t home 2 neighbors weren’t around had one last call 3rd neighbor laughed and then came over video and all 😂❤
You can make squash lasagna, yummy 🤤 also what I have done is cut up Irish soap and spread in the garden to get rid of bugs. Thank you again for sharing your day with the community.
Careful how many times you say ouch...Lester and Jami will make a drinking game outta it lol (sorry Jami) hahaha Dan and Lou are really getting into the cooking. Garden looks great...have a good night guys
This was a fun video to watch before I went to sleep. Y’all are a lot of fun! Stephanie, if all your zucchini’s produce, you’ll have enough for Plum Grove. 🤣. I can’t wait to watch your garden grow! Take care!💖🇺🇸
I can’t wait to see your garden. Hoping this cold blast we are getting in Texas doesn’t hurt the garden. Kim getting locked in her coup is priceless 😂!! Looking forward to y’all next video ❤
For your squach ...Diatomaceous (de) is a wonderfully pest control build up the soil around the vine ,sprinkle black pepper around the plants as a defence you could put a screen over them when they are little just 💡 your garden is big good luck ....have a great day
Elora has chicken pets that is so great. Can you kill the moth bug? Put something around the plant? Kim that is so funny.. think goodness you were there.
Your garden is looking awesome. Your doing great. Stephanie pay no attention to the comments asking stupid questions why are you growing so much it’s no one business it’s your garden your hard work money and time. None of anyone business do whatever you like whatever makes you happy.
Love you guys! There is s peace about your page that just warms my heart. Can you use some prin/seven dust around the plants to keep the worms off the plant? Then again it probably wouldnt be organic. Just thinking. Cant wait to see all your hard work pay off. Glad you were there to help Kim out. Going to have to raise that latch on the coop door. I always told my Mom to go no were with out her phone to call for help if something happened. Thanks for sharing.
Steph, I think it is funny to say this….but I think with that size garden you may need some guineas. It works for PawPaw in keeping away the insects that mess with your garden. 😁 Oh my gosh, poor Kim. Glad you were there to help her. 👍👍👍👍
Steph and Buddy I would rather work with your roll fence than Jakes barb wire fence lol. The garden is looking fantastic, hope after all your hard work all the pests leave your plants alone and you have a zucchini feast lol.
Stephanie I canned for years with a water bath and I did green beans and they were great. I did stewed tomatoes, soups, peaches you name it with the water bath and it was fine. My aunt did the pressure cooker (not me buddy) new ones today would be find and great so good luck but know your water bath really would be fine. Grow some cabbage and make Buddy and kids Sauerkraut I loved making it and it was so so easy. That too was done with water bath. We cut it up using our food processor and it was amazing.
😂 so many laughs today (esp. Kim’s rescue ❤) the topper was Buddy w his beef tip leftovers bc I had just watched Dan’s video and noticed Buddy returning the file at the end of it. (And Jamie dropping off your bday gift in her video and Elora in Gs video etc) got me thinking about how cool it is to see each of u in these ‘unintentional Cameos’ on Morrow Hill. ❤ Its just like sitcom spin-offs back in the days of yore …😉 All in the Family-The Jeffersons Happy Days-Laverne & Shirley-Joanie loves Chachi, Mork & Mindy, Cheers - Frazier 😂😂but Morrow Hill wins hands down🏅🏆 with … ISS LL SJ FF HPP FStoB CUwK LMH DH ❤ DMO and few others w the kiddos
I loved this video so much. And I'm sorry but I just had to laugh about Kim being locked up in her chicken pen... Great job on the garden y'all are doing good 👍. GOD bless y'all 🙏 and Until the next one have a blessed day. 🥰❤️🤍💙
Norma here. You and Buddy hard at work again, Elora loving on her chickens and Kim needing to be rescued all made for a great video. Extra bonus getting a delicious meal all prepared after a long day. Kim is so funny. Glad you were out with your camera to capture the moment.
I watch all your videos but rarely comment. I just have a few things to say. You and Buddy compliment each other perfectly. I had the exact same relationship with my late husband. Y'alls garden is absolutely amazing. I tended to our garden growing up. My parents were huge on self sustainability. Saving Kim was hysterical 😂 I love that y'all live so close. It was a perfect ending to a wonderful video. Thank you for sharing. P.S. Why don't you have gloves to handle that wire was all I was thinking 🤔 😉
