Join us, Daphne and Ian, as we embark on our new chateau renovation projects! This week, we take a look at an upcoming winter project in the Hunter's Lodge and continue uncovering the stone facade of the Farmhouse. We venture into the chateau moat on our little boat so we can address a growing problem on our dungeon window.
Our beau chateau (The 500-year-old, Chateau De Lesigny), is located near Paris, France. Most of the structures around the chateau domain need a full restoration, so we are investing everything we have into making the property thrive! We are learning more about french culture and developing new skills along the way!
As a French/American UC Berkeley graduate in Agriculture (Daphne), and a U.S. Air Force Tactical Response Force Veteran/ Kinesiologist (Ian), we share a love for challenges and adventure. We have a long road ahead of us and we are excited to share the experience with you!
You can support our renovation projects by joining our Patreon Community, where you can also gain access to exclusive videos and behind the scene access with Daphne and Ian! All patron funding is used to renovate this historical French Chateau. Every patron is paramount to our chateau renovations and we thank you all tremendously!

    Vinegar works great. I use 1 gallon vinegar 1 1/2 cups Epsom salt and 2 tablespoons blue Dawn Dish Soap. It kills the weeds in 2 days and is pet friendly. Your channel flows with so much ease.

    Tip for the ivy. Get a 1 or 2 meter rod that you can attach 550 cord (parachute cord) at the tip of the rod. Ram through the ivy as close to the wall, gather both ends of cord, attach to your tractor and pull vines off the wall. Really helps if you cut the base of the vines and wait a day or so for them to die. For your cobbles I’d add salt to your weed killer. Think Romans and Carthage. Happy Veterans Day to you too!

    Vinegar does work! There is a scientific paper on the subjekt and also it is used in many swedish communities just because it is not poison. There is special vinegar you buy ready to use. You have to treat several times (just like burning, the roots are still intact). In new areas to treat you have to treat minimum 2 times a season. Do not use salt.

    Fun video (as always)! Here in CA Wine Country we struggle with Ivy invading the redwood , oak and pine trees. We found that (if you have time) that cutting out about 12" of the main vine at the base (where the ivy vine enters the soil) and waiting a couple of weeks the entire vine dies and pulls off the tree (or a building) easily and does not damage to tree or structure. Viola! When you are removing ivy growing 100-150' in the air on an old redwood tree it needs to be as easy to remove as is possible. LOLs! Thanks for providing my French moment today. Merci!

    The vinegar method recipe is 1 gallon vinegar, 1 cup of salt and one drop of Dawn dish soap. Must spray generously directly on weeds during a warm sunny day. The sun helps the weeds absorb the mixture and thus helps kill the weeds. Works best in small full sun areas so I'm not sure this would be the most cost effective way to solve your problem. Best of luck to you both! P.S. I just found your channel and LOVE your videos!!😍😍 I've been binge watching for the last 3 days! Can't wait to see the rest!

    If you cut the ivy at the bottom, and leave it for about a week, the ivy above the separation will all die back, making it a bit easier to remove. Consider Boston ivy, or Virginia creeper, which does not ruin building exteriors. Loving your channel from Mexico City.

    We use a propane torch to burn the weeds and it works extremely well. No direct chemical contamination and they rarely grow back. More importantly, it can be used on the stone path and the building itself. Well only on stone aspects, lol....

    I recommend filling the cracks with patio sand. That might help greatly. Also, it’s much easier to cut the base of the ivy and let it die before trying to pry it off. It will come away from the building with less effort.

    Tip1: get a pressure washer surface cleaner attachment. It will save you MANY hours of labor. Tip 2: if you cut the bottom of your ivy and let it dry it should be much easier to remove.

    Your groundskeeping projects are really paying off. Paving takes a fair bit of maintenance, especially since weeds only need a thin layer of organics to return. May I suggest you acquire a large sprayer backpack for your soon-to-be semi-annual vinegar sessions? (The addition of salt and dish soap will help.) I think the service courtyard will be an asset for film crews - it could really be turned into a village set, couldn't it? Also - your filming skills are very good, and very enjoyable.

    With all that vegetation material that you clear out, have you considered getting a woodchipper? It would give make you lots of great mulch for the gardens..

    Clip the ivy branches. down to the ground. In time the vine will dry up and it will be so easy to pull off the wall without damage to the wall.

    Hello from the United States,I really love watching you renovate this stunning Estate. The huge amount of work and commitment is honorable. The Chateau must be very happy to have such love and devotion put into it. I wonder if you can give some more history of it and perhaps give us a night time tour of the Chateau and the Dungeouns. Thank you

    A night tour of the dungeon would be very spooky! Also a bit too dark for the camera, but we will definitely show more of the dungeon in the future 😉

    @@TheBeauChateau I can only imagine what went on in the Dungeon, what does it feel like down there? I wonder if it needs an energy cleans. The energy of that place is so intense. I was thinking maybe you could put in some fire pits kinda like the vikings used.
