  1. Hello, I love watching all your videos. I am excited to grow some Herbs Ang some Tomatoes in the summer. I live in So California and I love growing vegetables & herbs. I stopped growing them but this New Year I’m going to start again.

  2. Hi Kim,

    I have big plans for my garden this year. I am in the process of planting five fruit trees. I have already planted an AU Rosa Plum, and a Yellow Gold Plum tree, and am waiting for delivery of a Lapins Cherry, Bing Cherry, and a Stella Cherry tree. I am getting a 10ft x 20ft mound of dirt ready for an in-ground herb garden. The herbs will be sharing space with a Silver Maple tree, a Dogwood tree, and about ten dwarf azaleas. In March, I will purchase straw bales for Wine Cap mushrooms. Last on my list is adding a third GreenStalk Tower for the Twin Towers of Peppers. My first generation of tomato plants have all sprouted, some are ready for up potting. In five days, I start the bulk of my seeds for both my garden and a local plant sale. If that isn’t enough, I am planning on replacing three clusters of growbags with raised beds. It probably won’t get done until late next fall.

  3. I love you so much!!! You are so sweet and adorable and I absolutely LOVE your channel. Thank you for finding the time to share your garden and your knowledge with us. It is greatly appreciated!

  4. I’m going with tons of different peppers this year. I love peppers and I think they aren’t bothered by most
    of the pests I deal with.
