    You guys are amazing! We rely hugely on our gardens. I need to get better at utilizing my space maybe lol. We grow a lot of our own food, but definitely not as much as you. What a great video. We LOVE growing celery too, our first year we couldn't believe the taste difference from store bought, amazing. Another thing we grow a ton of is herbs, we hardly ever buy herbs as we dehydrate sooo much, I'm sure you do too. You definitely inspired me to utilize my crops more and in more ways. 😊

    Thank you for giving us numbers,but they took the wind out of my sails. I am preparing a corner in my yard for my first garden, but I can only get a tiny fraction of those plants in that corner. 😭

    We have the same issues. Middle of the forest and the Canadian Shield is a few feet below the crappy top layer of soil. Slowly building up compost and growing our garden. Thanks for the great ideas and tips for growing. 🌱

    That's awesome! Nothing like growing our own food! Learning as I go and now need to learn how to grow more in small spaces! Thanks for showing me it's possible!

    Great summary, thank you. I totally get your numbers – our off-grid house (Yukon grower) is starting to look like a nursery with onions, celery, peppers, leek.
    And you are a hundred percent right about the celery! I didn´t like it until I planted our own some years ago and now I have 6 types going. Love it and toss it in everything. 🙂

    Really would be nice to see all the preservation videos linked in while talking about the plant.

    Love the number of plants list and the eat now, eat later concept. One of my goals this year is to succession plant so I can extend my eat now harvest.

  17. Carol Kantner

    Good info…I need to grow more . Is it because your growing season is short that you plant so much also

    Great great video guys! We love the numbers and that is something that we often find is difficult to explain to people and have them "get it". I use 120 lbs of tomatoes just for ketchup, never mind all the other things that you mentioned. Love how you made this very matter of fact and straight forward loved it. Congrats on growing so much of your own food and we hope you have another great garden season. ~Steph and Chris

    This feeling that you feel connected to your land, that general feeling goes for most jobs but its just much easier to feel that way growing your own food. Also the connection to nature makes it easier at least I think so.

    Very interesting video, I think you are right about many people underestimate what they need. Are you vegetarians? are you hunting, are you buying meat and fish or can you trade with some neighbor that do hunting?

    My Daddy would plant 100Lbs of potatoes every year besides everything else. I didn't appreciate it until I was grown how hard he worked. Miss him and love him so much

    Growing celery…. absolutely agree with you guys! All the flavour and its ability to be frozen makes it an important choice. Wish our farm was closer to yours as we could initiate some trading! Wow! You sure love your hot peppers!
