I love when Andy says y'all got "lazy" because everyone knows that being lazy for a farmer is still harder working than most anyone else. Maybe y'all should start a new weekly summer series every year called "Grilling With Andy".
Hey guys I found yall month ago. You're s wonderful couple and your kids are so kind and they are so sweet. We are retired and live on a farm. Love yall ❤
😂y’all sound like me & my husband!❤ 31 years today 🎉🎉❤ definitely gonna try the salt trick! I have problems this year with 🫑 & 🌶️. I was just trying every seed I had and forgot, ended up with 2 poblano plants that are doing great now! I saw the golden rod too, here in upper N MS, last month, when I was gathering elderberries & poke berries & found & transplanted 2 giant Mullen! & 2 elderberry cuttings! whoop 🙌 whoop! ❤❤ God’s blessings!
Wow !!!.,it’s always so great when you get Those kind of Volunteers 🌱..Yes definitely save them seeds ..I hope next spring will be good with them seeds .. Happy Labor Day to y’all..Everything looks good..I’m gonna plant a few Fall seeds
I had a volunteer yellow pear shaped cherry tomato appear growing through the engine compartment of an old car without a hood. Best ones of the year. I've never grown them before so totally lost where they came from
If you don't wanna work so hard next year, just toss half the pea and bean seed down now where you want them to grow. If you get enough volunteers you won't have to plant them in spring.
❤I become exhausted just watching you two work! Those hogs surely were “hosses” ! No wonder y’all got so much meat from them. Andy’s steaks and all his supper looked delishious! No Bakes are a favorite in my family but none of us can make them good. They always get to dry. You’re the master it seems, Meagan! ❤ 🙏🏻
Hey y’all. My wife and I enjoy watching y’all’s channel from Springfield, TN. As for the problems y’all experience growing squash and pumpkins, try planting them a little later in the season. Like y’all, we have always had problems with squash bugs and squash vine borers. We planted our squash in June this year and the plants still look great and we are still getting tons of squash. No squash bugs or vine borers this year! At the least, it could be another experiment for Andrew next year. I’m sure it would be video worthy. Keep up the good work! Troy and Aimee
I think we did plat them a little late one year and the hot heat from summer got them, but we might try it again next year I really really want a nice pumpkin patch
That's funny.... My mom used to make those chocolate peanut butter no bake cookies for us when we were wee ones.(I am 57 now) I can still taste them. They were so good and so easy to make.
Enjoyed watching y’all. It’s amazing how seeds will pop up in the most unexpected places sometimes. Homestead/Farm Life is the best life. I enjoy cookin on the black stone grill to. Those steaks & taters look delicious. I to love anything chocolate Andy. God bless y’all. 😇🙏🏻❤️🙌🏻
Google states this: Solidago, or Goldenrod, is a genus of herbaceous perennials in the aster family with up to 120 species and numerous cultivars. It displays small, bright yellow flowers in dense clusters on top of tall stems from July through September.
Volunteers are the best! I let my chickens in the garden to clean it and it will spotless fast. They eat the plants weeds and everything quickly. Those small white volunteers look like my scallop squash or patty pan squash. They are yummy
I spilled some leftover squash seed in the driveway a while back and I think they came up better than what I planted in the garden. You cook a good looking supper Andy and I bet it all tasted good. I love peanut butter delight. I used to love it at school when they would serve it. The last I had came from Priddy's.
Happy Labor Day! All of those surprise fruit and veggies are gifts from God. He knows you have need of them. Such a blessing since you said you didn't save the seeds from one of them and now you can. Those cookies my husband loves also, but I've never attempted to try and make them. I really need to try. That's funny about "how Andy gets his oatmeal" lol. My husband loves chocolate as well.
I can remember hearing very very few acorns dropping last year at the end of August and ive never seen that before it absolutely was an early fall last year. Didnt have a cold winter at all here (Richmond, VA) Even though the persimmon seed test was calling for a snowy winter we didn't get but maybe an inch of snow at the most! Im still binge watching yalls channel!
My golden rod I have been waiting and watching. Yes today the 4th its got color . Took awhile in the SC mountains now i will say its close enough. You both are do funny finding surprises as I say . Somethings like you say you plant it and it does nothing then something's are a surprise where did that come from. I spent a lot of younger years in Jersey we used to make fun jersey cows but they're delicious and they're tomatoes werent bad in the day. I bet you could mske a cheese steak right now and people would have a cow 😂it be so good. Have a blessed week 🙏❤️ My hubby says we he takes me out thats the night he cooks 🤣🌹
What kind of tomatoes were those little tiny ones? Hope yall have a good Labor Day and try not to work to hard today. I've been binge watching your videos since discovering yall a couple weeks ago. Your my kind of people! I truely enjoy watching your little family on your Homestead. Your an amazing lady Megan. ❤ from Kentucky
Try planting the black cannonball watermelons. They’re a lot like the expensive Japanese ones. A Japanese farmer in my town in California grows them in the summer and they are the best.
Love your channel and its content. We live here in Northeast Alabama. We get our Cornish cross meat birds from Valley Farms Hatchery and we have nothing but good things to say about them and their company, we are on our 3rd batch of chickens for the year. They are always running specials on their chicken breeds every week.
Hey y’all. I said it before and I’ll say it again. This has been an exceptionally good growing year. Stuff has just grown and produced like I’ve never seen before. I relocated one of my farrowing pens this Spring and let me tell y’all the volunteer plants that come up in that area is unbelievable. I had pumpkins, gourds, winter squash and watermelons come up in that pen. They just didn’t come up, but the plants all produced. And produced a lot. Actually better then what I planted and tended to in the garden. This growing season has really blown my mind. Y’all please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I’m suffering from some major burn out. Please pray that I get my second wind. There is so much to do. Love y’all.
The plants are as confused with the weather as us!! Still think we are going to have early fall and bad winter. Now the weather forecasters are getting saying similar. We rode up to meadows of dan yesterday and noticed a lot of trees turning....maples primarily which is early
I know your way of life is hard work, but I envy it. We consider where we live "out in the country" but it's nothing compared to where y'all live. I have great memories, as a child" watching my Grandpa branding his cattle, growing his vegetable garden and he also had a fruit tree orchard. Watching y'all brings back those great memories. May God continue to bless you and your family abundantly ♥️🙏✝️ Much love from Texas ❤🤠
I remember you taking down netting (not sure if it was the same one) and talking about there being no way to clean it off to reuse. Apparently God knew you'd need the peas. :)
I have been so behind watching ya.,we doing some DIYs at home ..painting a few rooms and garden beds and I’m slow with a sprang wrist ..Have a great Day
That is the same hatchery I ordered my chics from this year I got some of the Cornish cross some of the red broilers and also got 12 of their red sexlinks
guessing some of your volunteer plants in your fields might come from undigested seeds eaten by the goat, chickens etc don't know if that's possible but birds have been known to spread seeds from one island to another .....
I'm noticing that goldenrod is blooming earlier than usual here too. A lot of fleabane and rabbit tobacco that we didn't have last year. The elderberries are everywhere. I've never seen so many! I think we're in for a hard winter in more ways than just the cold weather.
We are had gourds popping up everywhere i our old yard because our son busted like 20 gourds we were drying out for birdhouses. crazy how food grows on its own & we work so hard! lol We struggle with squash bugs here, too, and we use DE, have brought in lady bugs…. don’t matter! You have to pick out bugs & scrape aphids every single morning!! Back breaking labor, so it helps to keep your pots of water by each row, rotating ends, to drown the little critters! Love your videos, so encouraging!
One of your volunteers looks like a white patty pan squash Some of the best watermelons I have eaten are volunteer Melons are LOTS of work Used to do them for part of our living - we are from the melon capital in Arkansas - our little town is patented for the worlds sweetest melons! Have to turn and train those vines in the field every day when you have acres of them Your peas look good! Good eating this winter Hogs are looking good Are you going to do a video on butchering this time?
we might get clips of it but most of the people who are down there helping dont like a camera too well so we try respect that, we couldn't do it with out them
Awesome video as usual. My wife and I enjoy watching from Rutherford Co NC. Them there are what we call “chocolate oatmeal “ cookies. Peanut butter delight sounds like peanut butter balls like around the holidays.
I really enjoyed the video ! I love volunteers and seeing what comes from them . We got some kinda squash that came up in some compost in early April when we were still getting frost that is still alive and its massive in size and we got 2 squash from it this whole dang time lol . I'm like you guys and squash doesn't do too well for me . I can always count on it frosting a few days before or after the 15th of October . I had always heard Jersey was some of the best beef as well. The meal turned out looking amazing !
Happy Labor Day ya'll. We love this video, always love to see a " day in the life " video. I do have to say that when Andy said he was gonna grill some 🥩 I thought it was gonna be on a wood fired grill LMAO. Down here that's a flattop. Keep up the great work ya'll. Oh by the way temperature today was only 100, humidity 87% .GOOD GRIEF.
Make sure you save the seed from all those volunteer plants. You might have found some that survive in the garden now. Seeds you buy are adapted to wherever they came from.
We call those no baked cookies macaroons but ours are a little bit thicker than what you're pouring on that wax paper but they're so good they look like cow pies so maybe you should start calling them cow pies cow pie cookies yeah🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Andy at the risk of sounding like a bossy viewer, I can't help but notice how sunburned you get, please use sunscreen. I've had to get several skin cancers removed and am now a convert. Just sharing what I've learned the hard way.✌️
Ok Meagan I know I’m not your mama, but I’m telling you, your not allowed in that pig pen anymore. 😂 I was nervous for you. Lol. I know Andy would have saved you if needed but 😅 I’ve never had pigs so maybe an unfounded fear. Lol
I am soooo ready for a frost 🙏🏻. I think everything is out of wack these days! Who knows what normal is anymore🙃. I agree with the turkeys; those things are hard to raise. At what age do y’all process them? God Bless!😇
When you save seeds from your own stuff you grow, do you find it does better and better each year? It’s almost like it gets genetics that are best for your soul and weather.
Lol gotta love volunteer plants For the purple hull peas do you pick em when there green to eat or let em dry out like you have for seed saving thanks 😊
Yes we pick them green to eat then let them dry completely out then pick the dried ones for seed, but some people let them all dry and store and cook them like any other dried beans ☺️☺️
