My husband and I have been best friends since I was 14. I’m 43 now and we have been married 21 years. I love seeing you share what a healthy loving marriage is. Being supportive of your spouse and each other’s dreams is so important. Thank you for sharing and teaching this wonderful healthy lifestyle. You inspire me in the garden and have made a huge impact on moving forward in a really hard time in my life. I’m so grateful for all you do. And you never know who’s life you will bless in the process. you have changed my life in a way I could never have words to express. Thank you, and God bless you and your family.

Did anybody else feel like they were in the greenhouse with Jess, just having a private conversation? Or was that just me? I love how NORMAL and relatable you are Jess, makes me smile all through your videos. P.S. super excited for daily content!!

Jess is back 🎶🎵back again🎶🎵 One of the sweetest things is to watch Sweet Miahs face as he watches you talk ❤️❤️

Because of your videos I have started container gardening on our porch. Thank you for being so supportive & encouraging. I told my husband if something dies it’s a lesson not a fail. You & Mia are a blessing, Thank you.

That was my advice too

Cindy speaking (Barry's wife)You may already know this but just incase you didn't. If you mound up the soil around your asparagus before the asparagus pops up you could have white asparagus. You can dig down a little and cut it. Once the asparagus breaks the soil and it gets some sun it will turn green. White asparagus is really tender. You can research it on internet. Steamed asparagus on toast with a slice of cheese and ham, broil till cheese melts and pour hollandaise sauce over it. Enjoy. Thank you for all the wonderful videos. Have a great weekend. From PEI

If you watch 30 seconds of an ad, they will pay the KZread channel for that view. Different ads are paid in different amounts. Some are less some are more. The least we can all do is just sit through the 30 second ads for Jess and her family. It costs us nothing but 30 seconds of our time.

I just looked in Amazon, and it says your book is now the #1 Best Seller in Organic Gardening and Horticulture. Wow. Way to go!! So happy for you...

Hiiiii, I’m Dani and I’m a growing gardener 👋🏻 First time commenter here, and I’d just like to say that I’m so thankful that I found you and your channel. You’ve opened and softened my heart in so many ways, and the education you give is invaluable. (Your book was amazing btw, read it in 3 days and I can’t wait to sit down and reread it when I’m ready to build my first garden this spring) I’d love to hear you talk more about irrigation systems and how you’ve set them up for your beds. I’m feeling a little lost on that subject so any help would be greatly appreciated lol. Thank you for all that you do ❤️

When I first started gardening (I knew nothing)my sister gave me some asparagus crowns. We prepped a bed in a special spot and planted. My sister told me not to pick any that year so we didn’t. Later in the summer she asked me how the asparagus was doing, I said great , but I didn’t know asparagus had purple flowers. She laughed and said “that’s where my balloon flower went”, we had a good laugh.

Two of the coolest non sell outs. I love ur style and grace thru the thicken thin of it. BRAVO.

I grew up with asparagus. My mom is a farmer's daughter and made a significant effort to plant up our 1/3 of an acre suburban property. When they sold it last year, it went quickly because of the lush trees and established plants! RECKLESS FOR ASPARAGUS. DAILY CONTENT IS BACK?? I AM SO STOKED *does the miah dance*

Asparagus sticker: start you dreams now/ I believe in food. Because I'll also wait to start something I want to do because I'm waiting for perfect conditions.

Even for my 34 years of gardening experience, I still smile a happy smile seeing seeds I've planted germinating.

21:55 The way Mia looks at you while you’re talking about how exciting it is to make content this time of year 🥰

Hi Jess!! I moved to my current property 3 years ago this May. My son pointed out I had a garden bed on this property before My own bed was in the house. He also pointed out I have more garden space then square footage of our home. This will be first year I get home grown asparagus! I don’t regret any of it!! Love you all! Keep educating us!

I am a first year gardener. I have some cherry tomatoes sprouting, some kale, and herbs right now...I've been watching you every day 😊

Jess, you and your family are so relaxing and enjoyable to watch (even through the tough times) that you truly are a refuge during the turmoil of these times. You 're one of the few pockets of normality that exist these days. Turn the camera on while you wash dishes, and we'll watch.

Mia’s happy dance brought a smile to my face, which was a blessing in stormy days. Thank you!

I thank you and Miah for giving me the desire to grow food. Y'all are a precious family and I love y'all.

I planted my garlic in pots yesterday because of you! Watch you every day for sure now that you will never miss another day:-) You are blessed with Hubby, kids, garden and now Kitts even if bottle fed.

💕🌱💕💕🌱💕 I would love a rise & shine tshirt in your next run. I sooo regret not getting one before. And so so so so excited for daily content!!!

I am appreciating your daily videos. At this time of the year all I can think about is gardening. I don’t want to watch sitcoms, I want to work in my garden until dark then watch one of your videos as I clean my kitchen and get ready for tomorrow when I can get back into my garden.

My wife and I enjoy your Channel. We look forward watching every day.

You all have been such a gift this past year! ♡ Thank you! What are some of your favorite garden perennials that are edible?

I love how happy you are in this video. No heavy stressful issues this time. Thank goodness!

My grandmother had 2 large asparagus beds on the edge of her garden space. It's only been within the last 10 years that it has finally petered out from lack of care. We harvested off of those beds for at least 30 years.

When we moved to this place, I also moved some of my asparagus crowns, as well as my saved seeds. I put seeds into a few pots and the crowns into a front planter. This is year 8 now and every spring, the asparagus spears make me very happy. I also really enjoy the ferns in summer.

I so enjoy watching you and your loving family....Im sure no family is perfect, but y'all work mighty hard to make things "work".....and you SHOW what REAL love looks like! I've move to a new place with a very small area to garden, but I'm going to try my best to grow food & flowers. Y'all encourage me...after much loss. THANK YOU!! God bless each of you!! BIG hugs!!!

Loved the part on your asparagus when I was younger everyplace I lived I always planted a bed I also kept a note book in my car so as I would drive around I would mark areas on the sides of the road where I would see wild asparagus growing so I knew where to look in the spring awsome eats

Thanks for letting me create for you guys this month! It was such a blessing to me ❤️👩🏻‍🎨

I started my very first garden last year because of you. I built 2 4x8 raised beds, and followed your direction on a daily basis. I had a huge success, this year I am expanding and starting by seed and guess what, I am following you again! You are truly great, and your book was all YOU, I loved everything about it especially the photography. Keep being you, its your blessing. :)

Your guidance has given me the confidence to try growing SO many new veggies and the Grace and perseverance to be easy on myself if something doesn’t grow well the first try. I can’t thank you enough for the wisdom and encouragement!! Bless you and your family!!

i think it’s crazy that you will release videos literally answering questions i have in my head

Please don’t miss a day! I live for your videos.

Thank you for the reminder for us in cold weather viewers. I will wear the hoodie I just ordered all year round! I just spent today doing the last planning for our 2021 garden. We will plant my early seeds tomorrow. Direct sowing into our garden won’t start until the end of May. The realities of living in the north!

I want a Miah’s Projects series. Even stuff as “simple” as making a t-post fence with corner braces or how he is using his lumber mill! Thank you for the great content.

I smelled my first whiff of tomato plant yesterday!! I have a flat that I am hardening off and I haven't smelled that wonderful smell until they went out in the beautiful sunshine. AAAAAAAAHHHHHH, soothes my soul to smell that!!

With all of the “to go” food containers I have collected over the past year because of COVID-19, I have been using them to sit my seedling pots in for bottom watering. Works well for my small garden space. Some of those containers are really sturdy and the cover works for the germination stage!

I have had asparagus for 20 years. We took a few spears the second year. By the third year we harvested more but still lightly. From then on we harvest from the first sprouts through several weeks. Then we let several mature but still harvest a few here and there even to the fall. The mature ferns are beautiful and it is amazing how they sweep water from the air during dryer periods.

We are in year 3, last year we harvested 1/2 of the plants for one week. This year we will harvest as much as we can for 2 weeks and increase a week per year until you get to 6 weeks. As long as they are bigger than a pencil. Here in Iowa it grows wild. It says “Spring has sprung” Fresh asparagus is the best! 💚

Jess your gratitude is contagious thanks for sharing your life with the world 🙏🦋

I love how honest you are. And your right they just kinda come out when it comes from the heart

Gotta love a man that cooks, and does dishes; then goes out and builds something. Jeremiah, rocks! Re asparagus: IMHO there's nothing like garden fresh. Used to pick it wild every spring, in Michigan. Second year, pick no more than 20%. Now that's, self-discipline.

Girl, I don't know how you put content out every day! Y'all are amazing. Would love to visit your education center WHEN that happens! :)

Thanks for helping me with my first year of gardening in Kansas ps you can never start too late, I started in July and still harvested, now it's year two and we are in colorado now with my medical crops for myself and my family for many illnesses(providing organic natural medicine) as well as an all organic vegetable garden and fruits like tomatoes and squash garden !!! I'm so excited and I'll grow along the way with ya! Thanks so much for ur knowledge

Thank y'all so much for your content, sharing your journey, blessing us with your love of gardening and love for your family! Your videos were a shining light to me while in a very dark place mentally! I love that God's love shines through you❤

We are blessed by an asparagus patch that my husbands grandma planted when this was their home. It’s small for our family of 8. But the kids will eat it straight out of the ground

I got my Dr Wyche’s and “Real food comes dirty” bookbag on the same day. I’m getting those seeds in dirt today, I know I’m a little late, but I’m in Pennsylvania so it will be a minute before it’s warm enough to go in the ground. It was a very R&R kinda day. Happy to get such frequent posts. If nothing else, it helps keep me motivated when garden time seem so far off. Ty

Every time I watch your videos I catch myself just smiling. Like the whole time. 😊😊😊I bless YOU GUYS! You're the best!

From Kansas, I think we are gonna be in our 4th year of harvesting? The first year we let it grow , the second we picked more than we thought we should but it has done nothing but increase in abundance!! Love it! (Love YOU - thanks for all you do to share this life)

My asparagus bed is ten years old today. I am surprised I actually didn’t over analyze it a decade ago! So many things were missing in my garden, since hanging out with you I’ve been rectifying that.😘

The way Sweet Miah looks at you... Aaawww.. How about a cooking video with Miah.

Just moved to a year-round garden plot in our community garden after 5 years of an April - October seasonal plot. I was gifted asparagus crowns from a friend and just established our first asparagus bed today! So very excited to have perennial plants in my garden!

Fresh asparagus is absolutely remarkable. You can eat what you have as long as they are as thick as a pencil and being careful to not eat too many. Leave at least 2/3rds. Once it is established in your new home you'll be able to harvest so much you will have to preserve some

The miah dance needs to happen more often.

I’m doing the happy dance that daily videos are back!

I have had an established asparagus bed for 10 years now. 1st year harvest nothing. Second year, harvest half and third year harvest it all! Enjoy your vlogs!

The last 4 minutes. Oh my heart!!! ❤❤❤😭😭😩😩😩😫😫😫❤❤❤

Yes miah we do our little dancy dance for daily content!!! Y’all are awesome and inspiring people everyday😄😄

We were super pumped to plant asparagus crowns when we first moved to our home (may have planted too many for a couple... is that possible?!). We waited 3 years to harvest, and we have a prolific crop that we happily share with our community! Thanks for all that you share with us here! Appreciated.

Look at your greens 😱 hard to believe you had so much snow and ice a month ago.......Happy Spring 😍🥰
