Your garden looks great no rain here for the rest of the weekend but did have some cold nights .
It is cold! Where did you get turmeric? I am looking for some. Ooo and I need elderberry too.
Plant everything! Everywhere 😎🙏 for your family 🙏
Loving the rain here in South Texas.
Put a veggie garden in the beginning of the week here in glen rose! So very thankful that the earth I tilled up was gorgeous soil and ROCK FREE which is unheard of in glen rose!! Going to buy a few more starts and till up another area once the rain subsides.
Lots of rain in Greenville also!
Heavenly Father please bless this woman and her family! I ask you give her garden plenty of sunshine and keep them safe and healthy in these uncertain times! In Jesus name I pray. Amen. Happy wishes from one Texan to another!
Thank you dear lady!! Your garden is looking awesome and it's just so great to hear your encouraging faith-filled words. I like the idea of the red ribbon I've heard of people doing palm branches on their door or on their window, either one is a great idea!! I always look forward to your videos thank you again. Also I decided to get some long planters for my herbs and strawberries. I've got some more soil to till because I think I got more seeds than I do Acreage LOL but that's okay God Will show me the way. God bless, prayers and hugs for you and yours.🌹🤗
Self sustaining. God sustaining. I love that. Glad to see your hard work in the trenches worked so well. These cooler temperatures in central Texas means the veggies are loving it. Everything loves rain better than hose water. Stay well. Love your videos.
I hope you don't have mocking birds, they peck my apples every year. I planted some elder berry seeds but no germination yet. Rain and 40's here too.
Hi Jill – everything looks great – especially the green beans! Happy Gardening!
I have found so many places in my yard to cram in many more vegetable seeds and plants. I do not have a tiller but only two sizes of grub hoes, shovels, and I am 66 years old. Do you know that you can hack holes in your grassy yard and plant corn – just keep the grass mown between the rows throughout the growing season and if you don't have corn seed, then you can plant the bagged (no oil or Redenbacker) popcorn. There are so many things that you can plant if you don't have seeds, like dried black eyed peas or black beans or most dried beans. Remember to let some of the beans stay on the bush and dry completely, shell them and put in an envelope for planting next year. Yes, Jill I pray for your family and all others around the globe that are suffering. The Lord will see us through this.
Oh I was thinking of order a couple elderberry bushes! I just got some supplies today to make plant supports and I also got a raspberry bush and a gooseberry bush from Tractor supply. They offered curbside pick up too!
Hello sweet sister. Hope and pray you get some rain, but not the rivers we got here in SA. Man ho man, it rained all day today. I wanted to work on my raised beds, but i couldn't. Too wet out there. Hopefully tomorrow is better. Glad you are sharring about the red ribbon. I had not heard of it, but glad you mentioned it.
Keep up the good work.
God bless you
Yes, prayers y’all way. I’m in Hunt co. And we’re starting to get cases here now…. planting my garden and looking forward to learning canning recipes! Thanks for sharing.
Hello, Jill. All is well, just staying grounded. working from home, I manage a small family business in commercial plumbing and it has slowed down to zero due to the virus and my husband works at the Border Patrol as an electrician, so he has to show up to work through this crisis as he's considered essential. God is with us and HE is always protecting us. I praise HIS name. The red ribbon is a beautiful idea to put on the door way. WE will do that. Your garden is looking great. A lot of rain! We received good rain too. God Bless you and your family. See you soon.
Sure is a good video. Been keeping my garden weed free. Been adding fertilizer to get soil ready for plants. Sure looking forward to fresh produce from the garden. Got some cucumber and squash plants coming up. Your garden is looking good. Have a great day.
Where did you find your elderberry plants?
Hi Jill, could you not cover your tomatoes against the rain? A sort of tent, from soil, up over and down to soil again?
