It's Day 105 of my garden's sabbath year. Time for an update. Many have asked what plants have volunteered so I will be giving you an update on that and harvesting some herbs along the way. Yeah I am ok to just mow the weeds at this point and let the garden have a true rest. I am telling myself it's good nitrogen to feed the soil and we will try to manage this using another method come fall.
If you want to try the bug & tick spray, here's the video on how I make it ♥ • DIY Natural Mosquito &...

I moved into a new house and the builders had landscaped with big herb plants in my font garden. I have a border with mint, rosemary and sage. It looks so pretty and I can cook with it too.

@DragonflyenAmber Год назад

I would get the mint into pots or it will take over and push all the other stuff out.

@Funky_Fairy Год назад

@@DragonflyenAmber it’s ok, been 5 years and the sage is taking over more than the mint.

@chickenmumma Год назад

Let the chickens in to weed the garden as well as clean up all the mulberries! 🥰

Airplane counting… hilarious 😂

@alesiawallin3860 Год назад

Those leaves are a little big now, but when the poke first starts, harvest the young leaves and cook them like spinach. We wash them, boil then pour that off, then cook them like we do spinach with scrambled eggs.

@jackienoel2864 Год назад

I think you need to rest and enjoy life sometimes. It’s ok to sit back and rest and let things go. I like these videos, and you sharing things with us. Thank you!! God Bless

@SimplyStacyL Год назад

I’ve been waiting for this video! So curious to observe your resting garden!

@susannahjoy4220 Год назад

How did you cook it? Boiled or pan fried?

@helenswanson1403 Год назад

Oregano has helped me get control of athletes foot.

@barbaramccune9383 Год назад

Thank you for the yard tour

@audreyhandy9273 Год назад

Everything looks lovely. Enjoying your peace and tranquility is more important.

@teresaroubal7237 Год назад

I thought about you over the weekend, I live in Manitowoc WI, and it's been so dry here no rain at all we have only mowed our lawn 2 times since April. I was telling my husband that you picked a good year to do the sabbath rest for your garden since there is no rain. My husband at first thought you and I were both crazy and said it doesn't say anything like that in the Bible (he went to a parochial school, and I didn't) so I pulled out my Bible (which I've been studying in the Old Testament) and showed him where it stated that. He said I should continue to you watch you since I'm learning so much So thank you

@krazedvintagemodel Год назад

Which chapter/verse is it found please? I am a gardener who hasn't lived somewhere long enough to rest a garden, sadly. I love the concept!🌻

@bethaspell1827 Год назад

Blueberry leaves have more antioxidants in them than the berries. We use them in our teas

@jamjar5716 Год назад

I never knew. Thankyou!

@sheliaheverin8822 Год назад

MIlkweed is what Monarch caterpillars eat. That one looks like a common milkweed.

@galeharris6696 29 дней назад

I think your tall purple flowers are delphineums, and they are beautiful!

@barbaraslayden2277 Год назад

My dad said why plant something you can't eat. Enjoy your videos very much 😊. Love from Virginia

@ClassicKas Год назад

I love Eric and Ariel. They’re doing a lot of projects on their new property. It’s so exciting watching everything change. Thank you for sharing! For tinctures I watch @StiversHomestead and The Honeystead? Zack and Jen with Stivers just did a video recently about her tinctures and what all they’re good for. When these 100°+ temps come back down I’m definitely planting more medicinal herbs. What I don’t soak I’ll freeze dry for tea. I love how my lemon balm turns out being FD. Blessings to you both. Your flowers are gorgeous!

@cdavid2486 Год назад

I have been pulling out plants that are not edible and replacing with edibles the past 3 years. Lots more work to do!!

@janetsandham7058 Год назад

Hi from uk Really enjoyed ur vidio What a lovely gardrn and home the garden seems to get lovliet every timr i see it . Thankd for taking us with u

@dianepechacek8090 Год назад

I add blue borage to salads and coleslaw (sliced thin)

@lisaburns235 Год назад

So many sunflowers 🌻 I did expect you to have loads of self seeded tomatoes in the same place as last years.

@janetbendes9216 8 месяцев назад

Had fun with you and coming along with your volunteer plants. Think I'll give them a go next season, so I can enjoy the same feeling of down to earth. T.U. 🤭 🙌 🌿🌾 🥕🧄

@nikkinichols832 Год назад

Rachel, I have never heard of oregano being good for poison ivy! Thank you SOSO much for sharing this! My son is ALSO highly allergic to poison ivy! The only thing I have ever found that works instantly is 20 minute Epsom Salt bath soaks, but oregano would be a great substitute when I cannot find epsom salt which I have ran into several times. Thank you for sharing your tips I appreciate you! God bless and have a great evening!❤

@juliamarple3785 Год назад

Oh good! I found your bug spray recipe from a couple of years ago, and i wondered if it was still your go-to recipe. I bought witch hazel!

@maryarcher8484 Год назад

I started taking borage oil capsules and don- que capules in my late 40s. Went through the change chage of life like a breeze Im 71 and could not tell you what a hot flash is. Felt better during those years than i had felt in many years!

@TheMomGeneral Год назад

I’d let the chickens loose in there and let them clean it up and fertilize! Just protect your perennials.

@missourigirl4101 Год назад

Delphinium! Thank you Rachel for the relaxing beautiful tour. Your both are a blessing.

@latigress1959 Год назад

It was so cool seeing the white pup sitting so still in the background and it looked like he was looking straight at the camera getting in his few seconds of fame. It was really fun to see!

@lindagraff2484 Год назад

You have the best porch ever, I love it.

@lifeonlilac Год назад

The eggs self seeded too! I wasn't expecting that

@mehalpin Год назад

The garden looks great! We eat the horseradish leaves like spinach greens. absolutely delish!

@mrwhitten7704 Год назад

While we aren't resting our raised garden beds, we've been amazed at the number of volunteers, this being our 8th year gardening. We went with the principle of three this season: herb, flower and veggie. It ended up being very beautiful with all the flowers and herbs inter-planted with the veggies. I'll definitely do it again, with a few changes to maximize space utilization.

@jenboyles5381 Год назад

Me too I love teas in the summer. Most recently it's been hibiscus lemonade, next double mint.

@Joseph_Dredd Год назад

Beautiful spot you have there.

@Meeminator603 Год назад

awesome post!! Thanks so much. I'm thoroughly enjoying this "off" year from the garden with you and your sweetheart. xo

@jamjar5716 Год назад

This was a very pleasant visit on a very pleasant day! Your whole property is a garden. Very beautiful!

@crickettjd Год назад

Love, love , love volunteers; I would dig some of those up and plant them somewhere else in my landscape or give them to friends and family!!! Love your channel!!!

@lindajoe9862 Год назад

Missed seeing you....😊

@lizcroucher8046 Год назад

I recently discovered that the leaves of borage are edible and there is an Italian ravioli of ricotta and borage leaves, there is a traditional summer pesto that uses borage and that it makes a lovely addition to summery pea soups.

@jillbritton2676 Год назад

I finally got tired of the weed and grass pressure in my garden and put weed cloth over everything. If you watch Living Traditions Homestead they do that and I am so glad I did! I have just a few spots where the weeds come up at the corners of my raised beds and a few grasses I pull from under my tomatoes and that’s it! I will never look back. If you don’t like the look of the weed cloth, you can put wood chips over it in the pathways. I will remove it this fall when I put my garden to bed for the winter because I rotate where I plant every year and I will amend the soil then. It makes gardening so much more pleasurable.

@Cass6 Год назад

We moved into our house that’s on the outskirts of a small town, so still in town in MN. But This year we put in 2 apple trees, 2 pear trees, 2 blueberry bushes, and will be adding more. We have grapes growing under our deck on a trellis! We are totally in mindset of whatever grows in our yard it must be edible!

@nicoleturner5808 Год назад

I have a very small yard. Your edible landscaping advice makes a lot of sense. Thank you. Gorgeous yard.

@Dezedaantje Год назад

Wouldn't it be nice to put up a temporary chicken fence underneath the mulberry tree so your chickens could eat all the fallen fruits?

@kimberlee2469 Год назад

I love your new blueberry tradition!

@user-yi4qq9kr2t Год назад

Live in Alaska I’m canning green beans I enjoy your youtube

@samanthathornton9330 Год назад

Plantain is also a wonderful remedy to dry up poison ivy rashes. Just roll the leaf around until it releases some juices and apply to the rash. My husband has reactions like your son. 😢

@melissagreen94 Год назад

We live about a mile from Joint Base Lewis McChord. I love the sound of airplanes overhead. JBLM is having their first air show in 7 years. The fighters planes have been flying overhead today. Can’t wait to watch the air show from my front yard this weekend. 🇺🇸✈️

@jeannet9592 Год назад

The spiked purple flower is larkspur. Love your videos!

@user-hb8lo4oc9o Год назад

We add horseradish leaves to a jar when pickling cucumbers. It helps with crunchiness

@BootsandBountyHomestead Год назад

Im so glad you have mugwort, well...for me, because now I know what is lining our trails! Thanks!! Im loving the tour 😊 i was wondering what was going on with it all! LOVELY! God always provides!

@JaniceCrowell Год назад

I heard borage tastes like cucumber. You can eat it fresh (I’m pretty sure I’m thinking if borage).

@jodimontano4336 Год назад

Rachel, pokeweed is edible and the berries are medicinal! It's hard to find credible information on this long forgotten plant, and there is a lot of incorrect information out there, but I'll always let several grow in my garden. Plus, they're quite beautiful, IMO. The ripe berries can be frozen and swallowed (seeds are toxic, so don't chew. They'll go through your system without issue) with water like a pill, and used for aches and pain. I've used them and eaten the properly cooked leaves without any problem. Years ago they were sold as a canned green. God has given us so many sources of nutrition and natural medicine! I'm trying to learn this almost lost information.

@lifeonlilac Год назад

I've heard this, but yes it's really only word of mouth so it feels risky! I have tons around my house and I'm planning to the berries to dye some things before I rip it out!

@gardenstatesowandsew Год назад

Everything is so beautiful and peaceful ❤

@thejewishredneckprepper4675 Год назад

@JaniceCrowell Год назад

Lovely exciting garden. Wonderful weeds and flowers Isn’t it great to grow so much food when you do nothing??!!!

@colleenbryant3614 Год назад

Love your gardens, thank you for sharing.

@ImARiceCooker Год назад

Horseradish leaves kimchi or pickled greens is oneof the best condiments there is -- if you like kinda spicy one.

@dianebennett8095 Год назад

Thank you for this video ,I was pegging the string down with wire clips. this is going to save me Time and money not spent on wire clips. Alf🙂🙂🙂

@debbiealtman5373 Год назад

@KC-oo7yk Год назад

Thank you. This was such a fun video for me to watch. I am also experiencing a lot of peace. God bless you!

@wandamyers2690 Год назад

Looks fun to walk around gathering all your goodies❤

@michelehidgman3864 Год назад

I too am going through the female change. I've suffered for years with hot flashes and night sweats. Recently I add 1 cinnamon and 1 turmeric capsule to my daily vitamin regiment and it has been a game changer for me.

@Thepioneerfarmhouse Год назад

I always look forward to your next video. Everything is looking beautiful.

@jo-annjewett198 Год назад

I made your strawberry tea the day you showed it. My family loved it.

@tracyzabelle Год назад

Great garden

If you want to try the bug & tick spray, here's the video on how I make it ♥ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ebdg1pxpOtQ.html

@pamschonfarber1041 Год назад

I loved that you grew all the flowers & herbs on the outside of your veggie garden, I'm working on it now my self, 1 thing I learned with my herb garden is you really want to leave lots of space cuz plants grow so fast & big.

@greatgarden00 11 месяцев назад

Put down garden lime in the fall and again in the spring🎉🎉🎉

@kramitdreams Год назад

Thyme is probably my favorite 🌿 Bee balm is aweaome too. Mine is a big bush and the hummingbirds love it. I can sit on my back porch and just watch the hummingbirds play..its lovely too❤ We've live here 6 year planted kale once the first year and never had to plant it again😂

@RumduolAngkor Год назад

Really beautiful video and thank you for great tip

@LittleMountainRanch Год назад

Lovely video, Rachel. ❤

@dianebennett8095 Год назад

Just a side note, I've joined and i have a post hole digger So you can use mine. I live in Melbourne Australia, Hope to see you soon. Alf😜😜😜

@conniealmeida3373 Год назад

What a beautiful harvest of herbs. Your garden looks good. Enjoy your sabbath 😊

@robinnehls8057 Год назад

Bee Balm needs lots and lots of sun and room

@PYehl1 Год назад

I’m surprised you don’t have a ton of birds hitting those mulberries in the yard/tree!!

@justpatty7328 Год назад

My thought would be to just do what brings you joy in the garden. Enjoy the peace and tranquility! God bless!

@juliehale9491 Год назад

The menopause does that to you one second your thinking oh! yeh I must do that and the next second that thought has gone.

@seedyhollow Год назад

😮 Rachel I thought you were not growing anything in the garden it was year 7 and it needed a rest. Although my mom and dad did live as homesteaders raised everything. They never took years off with the garden they put well rotted cow manure in regularly! I haven't been watching truth be told because I am all into your garden and canning. I love you though Rachel.

@juliewilliamsnewzealand818 Год назад

she isnt growing anything on purpose - this was all preplanted in previous years....

@seedyhollow Год назад

I have been told lol, but I really have been a trader and not watched 🙁

@PeterPan-ku4mf Год назад

I kind of took a rest year too, with a long hike and I really miss the anticipation of harvesting some delicious veggies and herbs. The longer you have to wait, the more you cherish it and in that sense, think about the deliciousness of next year. Your are going to love it twice as much, just as I will

@cindyupton7357 Год назад

Could you please tag the video for your bug spray??? Mosquitoes in Florida are awful!! Would love to make some and try it. Thank you.

@annmarie3520 Год назад

I enjoyed seeing all your plants. You answered a question I had. First time having success growing echinacea and wasn’t sure if I should deadhead to promote more flowers and you answered that for me. Thanks for the tour.😘❤🙏🏻✨

@sheilaconley7085 Год назад

If you have any jewel weed it is wonderful for poison ivy. I make salves out of it. But also, if I break out any it works great

@michaelripperger5674 Год назад

Love the blueberry pancakes

@pamschonfarber1041 Год назад

I'm actually going to start getting my comfrey going on each quarter of my ground garden, as I've read so much good that it does for the other plants.

@Famcke Год назад

I simply loved this video. So peaceful and beautiful out there. Would love to see when you harvest that potato and garlic 😂😅💐💙🙏🇺🇸

@MIPatisserie Год назад

I love the idea of edible landscaping. It is something I have started doing iny city property but plan to do it on a larger scale at the next property. Many people do not know that some typical ornamental plants can be edible such as hostas & day lilies.

@hollynelson543 Год назад

I'm working on Borage tinctures now 😊

@emptynestgardens9057 Год назад

✈️ Todd plane counting🤣. I've been anticipating this update so much. I'm shocked you don't have volunteer tomatoes everywhere. My tomatoes are on the back of the property but today I was pulling seedlings from the front flower beds 😁 So good to know about the oregano treatment. I have to start utilizing my herbs more. Thank you for touring your Sabbath garden.

@margaretthompson6391 Год назад

Oregano has fantastic antiseptic properties. I use oregano oil when I have a cold or sore throat.

@hollynelson543 Год назад

Hi Rachel 😊

@barbaradeclerck7341 Год назад

Most Bee Balm likes moisture as well. It is a mint family member. Your thyme is beautiful and 1 of my favorites for roast chicken. Using it as a tea with soap making 🤔 sounds like an interesting option! The gorgeous purple spikes are larkspur, and annual relative of delphinium.

@jodimontano4336 Год назад

You need some anise hyssop. It's lovely, the pollinators love it, and it makes a wonderful tea with mint. By the way, your hair looks beautiful. I'm glad you're still letting it go natural.

@unleashedpatriot1802 Год назад

I think your garden looks BEAUTIFUL for “letting it go.” It could be worse and be full of burdock, crab grass, pigweed, water weed and creeping Charlie, 😳🤪 like mine would be if I took a year off. You have some good stuff to use there and BEAUTIFUL flowers. I am trying to plant a medicinal garden, I have “dead nettle”, Chamomile, echinacea, lemon balm, and most the usual herbs. I also have a lot of things I wild harvest for tinctures etc. I’m running out of room, unless I start taking over the pasture and the hay ground🤣 Glad you are getting some rest, it is well deserved🥰
