I was just reading in our local paper here in Canada that we have our first regenerative farm on the prairies. They have been certified as such. It took a lot of hard work to make that happen. We are zone 3 here with very cold winters so bravo to them.

honestly, I am here for the gems. (but your garden is also very inspiring.)

Thank you for the tour and sharing plans for future spaces! I really appreciate learning about how you support the ecosystem with native and non-native plants/flowers and not using pesticides.

You are such a wealth of knowledge!!! We’re on 7.5 acres with no irrigation rights and technically, our area is only allowed 1 acre to be watered from our well. We’re finally cleaning up the property that was previously quite literally trashed! I’m so new to everything garden (like, I’m planning on scattering a pack of wild flower seeds this year) but I’m SO excited to learn from you and plant on purpose! Wish you could come over and design our garden areas and teach me!!!

Good watch, thanks

I just stumbled on your channel. I’ve already learned a lot. I’m in central Texas and have had a terrible time with pests. I picked-up some ideas so thank you! I love the idea of the yard/garden being a habitat. Looking forward to learning more.

Nice to see you back! Thanks for the video. Looking forward to seeing the renos!

Love ur videos. Love to watch ur plants varieties. We need more of natives plants in our garden. The barn is beautiful. Please make more videos about planting native plants. Thanks

I've missed your beautiful videos. Glad you will be having some new things come our way. Love, love, love your farm. What a great tour! I've learned so much from your these past years. Love seeing your kids this time. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for the tour. We live out in the country in southern Wisconsin with lots of open space on 20 acres that are mostly left idle. We do not spray either and embrace patches of natives around our zinnias, dahlias, celosia, echinacea, etc. Working with nature is achieving a great balance of bees and beneficials. I am looking forward to your updates and hoping that the process is not too stressful for your family.

Missed your videos. Glad to see you back. :-)

Glad to see your new video. Lots of us get burned out by the end of summer. The heat is beginning to abate, and I’m ready to plant again. I look forward to seeing your fall plans. I just bought 3 sasanqua camellias October magic Ruby for fall color in front of our house, a couple dwarf Japanese maples, and 3 dwarf Sea Urchin pines. It took me some time to design a garden that would go in front of our living room windows without growing too tall and would have year-round interest. We moved to zone 8a Greenville, South Carolina almost a year ago, and revamping the prior owners’ efforts has been an ordeal.

You've put your heart into that property! I'm off to watch the greenhouse build video. Do you have a video with info about the storage container you got for moving?

Thank you for the tour! This was very inspiring. We are located in Colorado also and love to see the native and perennial options you are planting!

I think lisianthus are much prettier than roses. And your lisianthus is GORGEOUS. I wondered why you had zero powdery mildew on those zinnias. Great tip for me for next year.

Instead or hortonova netting, I've seen people use concrete reinforcement mesh wire. I haven't tried it yet, but it could be a good replacement. Nice tour, thank you!

Really cool to see the full tour! I'm working on some pocket prairie sections for our yard and I really liked the tall grasses in your pocket prairie at around minute twelve. What types are those? Some of it looks like big bluestem but I didn't recognize the rest.

Thank you so much for such an informative video here in Colorado. We are in FtCollins and will be following you as you work on the farm. We have 5 acres and one of my biggest problems is voles! Any suggestions would be so appreciated (I did notice the owl box). Thanks again!

Terrific, only 30 secs into your tour and you mentioned Columbines. I was wondering where to plant my Columbines - under my Pine tree!

I use "bag-a-bug" to control Japanese beetles. It works great for me.

You can freeze the bags of beetles and feed them to chickens if you have them. They love them and are good protein!

Great property!!!

I am so glad to see your video farm tour and project update because I was wondering why you were not posting. Good luck with all that work, yikes! Thank you for showing us the aphids on your milkweed and what you are (not) doing about them. 😂 We have them on the milkweed in our butterfly garden, too. Do you cut the milkweed down in the fall or do you let it stand over the winter? Your daughter is adorable! I wish you and your husbands lots of energy for all the work you have ahead of you! 🐝👍🌻

Wow!!! Interesting!

I'm looking forward to your video about creating the brick foundation of your greenhouse!! That's what I want to do, but I need help to see how to do it!

I started growing peach colored four o’clocks (4pms) a few years ago. Actually, they come back from roots and reseed, so I only “grew” them once. I can see them from my office window. The first year the Japanese beetles were all over them but they recovered. The next year, there were less 🎉JB. One day I noticed the JB that landed on them fell off shortly afterward. Evidently, 4pms are toxic to JBs! I hardly see any now. Not sure if 4pms would protect your roses. May be worth a try!

I feel your pain with the Japanese beetles. It is October and I still have beetles attacking my roses. Every year they stay Longer and longer.

Beautiful property, where located and are you moving? Just subscribed to your channel. Excellent tutorial on Zinnias. Thank u Lv

What zone are you? Thank you for the tour- beautiful farm! Love your techniques.

Thanks for being in colorado! ❤ do you have a post about dahlias...when to pull them out, when and how to divide and store in our dry climate? I've had ok success but would love your opinion ❤

Thanks for the tour ❤ Which tomato variety do you have outside? I really need some good ones. Hugs from Mette in Denmark

beautiful. ❤️ how do you keep your chickens from eating your blooms? mine love to eat my flower blooms. 😞

I'd love to know how you care for your apple trees! Everything I see is spray spray spray but I don't know how that would impact pollinators and beneficials? Do you do anything different as a regenerative farmer?

What is the application rate for the alfalfa pellet fertilizer? I love that idea!

David Austin roses are challenging ones. Why not try some production from Germany?

how did you go about covering the paths and the ground over such a large area of ​​your land? here no pruner gives free shavings and we therefore have to pay a lot for it... did you use another option?

Hi I’ve been looking for good jute netting where did you get it? ❤

What is the material you use for the paths? Is it just pea gravel?

Do you find the oregano invasive or is it a different variety from the normal herb oregano? Our herb here in Australia moves like mint so we can let it go.

You don't eat flowers, for the most part. 10-10-10 and pesticide is cheaper, less work, and gives higher yields.
