RuthAnn's July 26th garden tour 

Enjoyed hearing the story behind the shed and the cucumber update. That was a great way to keep a part of the old barn there on the property. That is so neat that your dog(s) love stuff straight from the garden too, but surprising with the cucumbers since they can be prickly. I am enjoying your weekly garden tour talks. Thank you for doing them!

We find that the fabric keeps so much moisture in our garden than without. I love the garden tours!

Watching you as you tour your garden is almost like watching my own garden (if I had one like yours) I just enjoy this vicariously. How great that you have the land you need to grow this garden.

The garden gets more and more beautiful every tour! 😍🥰🌱

Love that you used the lumber from the old barn for your garden shed. I always pick up great tips from your videos...thanks for sharing!

If it’s a mole (they love grubs), it’s good to get a handle on them, seems they multiply quickly. My husband places chewed Juicy Fruit gum in their tunnels. Their demise is by intestinal blockage. Thank you for the garden tour! I learn so much from you. ❤️

Loved learning more about your beautiful family!

Tomatoes are my favorite to garden because they create so many products I can preserve❤

Using some of the old barn boards makes a wonderful shed!

Thank you so much for the tomato blight recipe! Val C

Oh, your garden is so vibrant and healthy! I'm on the W coast and we're weeks behind you. Its going to be awhile before we harvest except for occasional strawberries. Thank you for sharing, your garden is beautiful! How frustrating to have the dog harvesting her own cucumbers....oh my 😂. ❤

I'm going to plant cucumbers this spring so I'm grateful for the tips! thank you!

I love the small pickling cucumbers they are great I make bread and butter pickles and they are great!!! Perfect sizes!!

Beautiful garden! 🙌

You have such a lovely garden. Hope you enjoyed it and all it produced. ❤❤❤❤

Thank you! I love learning from you, and see your beautiful garden.

Love the beautiful working garden and those recipes we all love and use!!!

You have such a beautiful garden. God bless.

Such a sweet and beautiful little garden shed. I love the wash tub hanging on the side, and the fact that it is made from the old grainery. 🐓🐔🦃

Just beautiful

Thanks for teaching! I appreciate you so much!

Love seeing your garden updates. So much good Information! Thank you for sharing💗

Love your garden tours!

Love all your videos

Can you go over how you store your food in your root cellar. It’s my first time growing onions. I harvested them and I’m currently drying them but would love more info. Thanks Ruth 🙏🙏

I seen you sewing the quilt top I love doing that you definitely need those where you live move to Kentucky we have cold winters but not like yours!!!

So much good info-thank you!

Beautiful garden!!

I love my dandelion puller. But I use it only for weeds. Gramma did use it for dandelions. She made dandelion wine 😂

I sure enjoy your garden videos!👍🏼 Thankyou!

I love your videos! I would also love to see your root cellar and your milking routine. We are getting our first dairy cow soon and I am so excited!

Great garden

Thank you!

Really wish I had a cold storage area but here in central Louisiana no such luck

Thanks!

Would love to hear you talk about your costs for gardening. I'm guessing between having your own compost source and access to grass clippings it's very little?

Your garden is a beautiful place! And can't wait for the harvest video! New subscriber from Australia!

I would love one of those stirrup hoes! That looks perfect., Ruth Ann your gardens are beautifu

I do more of a french intensive planting in my small potage garden near our home. I’ve successfully lowered the weed pressure to manageable by mulching along with cardboard and mulch in the foot paths. But, up on the hill where I grow the bulk of food, weeds are built in and out of control. More space and wider grass paths seemed nice…but, what a fight. So, I have rolls waiting on me to cut down maintaining the paths. -I too like working with the soil. But, I’m hoping to move the cover over the planting areas through the late fall/winter, in hopes to have that soil ready to go in early spring. Do you think it can actually work out that way? I hope I’m not dreaming. 😅

Have you ever made homemade ketsup? Living traditional homestead makes a great simple recipe

I am envious of your huge garden. I have 1 small direct sew patch and the rest are garden boxes but it’s enough for my husband and I here in WA state. Do you ever have or see stink bugs? We’re having a big problem with those this year.

Have you ever pickled watermelon rinds? I had them once and they were really sweet and delicious!

I would love to sit on the other side of the table and drink coffee while you explain what you are doing and why….

I am growing sweet corn for the first time, how do I know when it is time to harvest? Again, thanks for another informative video.

Do you prune your cucumbers ever? To take off the spent leaves?

Ok

Do you grow anything in pots inside in the winter?

My cucumbers have blight and look like the bottoms of yours. Is there anything I can do to stop the blight?

My cucumbers are misshaped. They are big on one end and small on the other. Ideas on why?

I"m not seeing your recipe for using hydrogen peroxide and water for your tomato spray to stop blight. Can you let me now where to find it?

Do you use any pesticides on your tomatoes?

Moles will tear up your garden and lawn digging for grubs.
