1/8 Acre LAWN-to-GARDEN CONVERSION: Part 2 — Ep. 261
Ever since finishing the renovation of the Meadow House-it's been my dream to overhaul the "backyard" lawn and turn it into a gorgeous garden. The lawn area is around 1/8-acre, which I think many people with small plots can visualize. It'll be our attempt over the next two years or so to take out much of the lawn and convert it to garden space. We imagine this will be a series of a half dozen or so videos documenting the process-and we've already gotten started-though we're at the beginning. Here's part 2 to our original video, which can be found here: ruclips.net/video/2Rd2HsSPoew/видео.html

Просмотров 10 тыс.День назад
It's been two years since we've created these orchard berms and started to plant some of the orchard. Yes, I know-quite some time-but the last couple years were challenging with spongy moth outbreaks, a drought, and a late frost, but this year the orchard really has a lot of life (and fruit!). Let's take a full tour-and see the surprises it brings! Special thanks to @EspomaOrganic for being our...

40 Plants for a DIVERSE, LOW MAINTENANCE SHADE GARDEN- Ep. 257
Просмотров 14 тыс.14 дней назад
We suppose there are many ways to create a "low maintenance garden"-but the one we prefer is a highly diverse garden with close plantings, which pretty much eliminates weeding any unwanted plants. We'll take you through the first garden we put in here at Flock-the Shade Garden, which began 3 years ago and has flushed out to be a really full-of-life garden for the shade. In this video we highlig...
5000-Acre REGENERATIVE FARM Revives Old Farming Town - Ep. 256

Fourth-generation farmer, Will Harris from @WhiteOakPastures in Bluffton, GA charted his own course in town when he decided to farm regeneratively-managing thousands of acres rotationally grazing cows, pigs, goats, sheep, and chicken for market in the US. He has been one of the more modern-day pioneers of grass-fed beef and related products, and has served as an inspiration for many others look...
Designing and Planting a STUMPERY Garden - Ep. 255
Просмотров 14 тыс.21 день назад
We were wondering what we could do with the opening driveway, which borders our wild wooded edge and is outside the deer fence, so we figured we'd keep it rather wild and make a stumpery garden of sorts. Not only that-but we found a much more "natural" stumpery in another section of the land, which will eventually get included within the deer fence-making more native plantings possible. Special...

TROPICAL BULBS I Love for the GARDEN - Ep. 253

When you're in Zone 5/6, sometimes you like to have more exotic flowers in the garden-even if they all won't perennialize (ahem...meaning they die in a wintry freeze unless you lift them). I picked seven bulbs/corms/rhizomes that I find myself planting year over year in the gardens and absolutely love their look within the space.

Now that we have a new front deer fence and gates on the homestead, we can start planting on the fence line, which we have been looking forward to. Our main goal is not to create total privacy-but a wildlife-friendly fence line, which will also provide some beauty and great visual interest. A key focus was including vines that serve as the host plant for many of our native butterflies and moths...

    You will notice over time one species will thrive one year, and next not so much. I recall one summer I could sit outside and hear four or five different Robins singing from different areas of the property. Also, remember to mow some areas for the Robins and others to forage.

    For so many plants, it is said: First year sleeps, 2nd year creeps, 3rd year leaps. It’s so hard to wait, but you have planted tons and all will grow. you both have done so much to your property. All the hardscape and renovations, all the trees and plants…it will be beautiful and get more beautiful each year. Bravo.

    I'm so excited to watch the progression of this new garden area. Beautiful selection of plants! You forgot to mention fragrance as another dimension of experiencing the garden (not a criticism). You have already included several plants that will delight your olfactory senses: peonies, roses, and the actaea. I grow the Itoh peony 'Bartzella'. Soft buttery yellow and a wonderful fragrance. Your editing, narration and quality of your videos are stellar! ♥♥♥ Thank you for the pleasure you both provide. I am a very early subscriber (when you only had a few hundred subscribers). I recommend your channel to anyone who loves to garden!.

    Except for invasive species that displace and destroy ecosystems, I think eschewing all non natives is a bit silly especially around our very unnatural suburbs. I think your approach of giving emphasis to natives is the right balance, but not being strict purist. After all humans are the biggest invasive “non native” species (outside of the African continent I suppose) that does the most damage to ecosystems.
