You don't need to blanch Bread beans, that is not a great way to store them imo. In My opinion drying is best and just simply soak dry beans in water overnight to then cook. Do the same for most types of beans.

I bought a pack of 30 asparagus seeds and now have 29 plants; we picked a few spears at the end of summer to test them and got a second crop due to the weather. The $5 pack of seeds gave us $240 worth of plants.

I knew a lady who had multiple paddocks for her horses. One was about 4 acres and at the appropriate time, she would move the horses (mostly hunters and a couple of saddlebreds) to a different field. Then the asparagus would come up and fill the first field. Everyone for miles around got free , well-fertilized vegetables. Asparagus used to grow wild along the back roads in the southern part of our state but then the gov't. decided to spray herbicide along the roadsides. Damn!

Also egyptian onions (walking onion) is fun to grow. You can eat the whole thing and it creeps spreading around. It also survives through winter here (by here I mean Germany).

I agree. They’re magic for me in qld. Planted once, take from them frequently and they just reappear without taking over my yard.

I'm always amazed at the differences in culture and how it differs from region to region. I'm in PA here and American gardens are so different. This guy probably knows at least 12 wizards... just like as friends. I learned in American public schools that England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland and those other places over in NotAmerica can do things like growing magic beans, enchanted potatoes, and mystical turnips, or summoning dragons and pursuing agriculturally relevant quests that would take an American 8 years of college education to understand and achieve.

That was hilarious! We live near Yeovil, in Somerset, UK. My daughter has a glorious garden, backed up with goats, ducks and chickens, plus foraging. She has quite a nice relationship with the fairies that live at the bottom of the garden. She keeps the troll under the bridge in Saturday evening beer too.

Thanks to you both, I'm returning to gardening after three years serious illness. The plot was terribly overgrown and the greenhouse was very sorry for itself and needed one pane replaced. Well greenhouse totally full of tomatoes (8 different varieties) cucumbers mini two plants, 4 types of beans , I've also got a huge range of summer bedding but I'm putting rainbow leaf beet, parsley and bush toms in the flower beds and hanging baskets. You can include a range of Chinese veg, kale, salad leaves in two types, peppers sweet in two types and peas including snow, mange tout, sugar snap and ordinary. Not bad for a start, plus I've planted my potatoes (first early, early and salad) and renewed and revitalised my strawberries, well about half anyway. I will be saving runners to replace the other half. I'm extremely proud of the giant trugs my hubby built me they're about waist height and 5' long X 4' wide and I have two. You're an inspiration to me so keep filming.

Hi, I know this post is old, but I just bought a house with a garden. The garden has not been tended to for at least 6 years, closer to 10. It's completely ovegrown with bittersweet nightshade, pokeweed, virginia creeper and other agressive weeds. What did you do to takle it? I would really rather not use a herbicide

Wonderful presentation! We live in the State of Tennessee, USA. We grow very similar crops here. We are in zone 6b. We grow several types of beans. Mostly those that are dual purpose. Fresh eating, canned and dried beans. We grow beets. Onions, garlic, but haven't grow leeks, yet! We have always grown greens. I just found you both today! I have subscribed to both of you. GOD bless

1) I would swap out beets for turnips- like beets, you can eat both the tops and greens, and turnips turn sweeter in the winter. 2) I would also consider Asian greens like mizuna, tatsoi and chrysanthemum (yes, the flowering plant) into a mix if you have a relatively mild-ish winter. They overwinter well, are delicious and very versatile in dishes. 3) Sweet potatoes! Again, a great source of calories from carbs AND has good health benefits, plus you can eat the leaves as well!

Love the ideas here. LOVE leeks! For me in California trees and bushes offer the most for the effort, citrus and avocados can provide yr. around (given enough variety) and as much as I enjoy messing in the dirt, trees don't require much time after established.

Giant "red" (actually purple) mustard greens are very resilient! Grows through all seasons, all soils even pure wood chips, and when it goes to seed the babies will even grow in sidewalk cracks! Easily transplanted. If you fail to grow this plant, something is very wrong lol. Also, if allowed to go to seed, the small flower branches dry to a perfect straw.

Broad beans can be allowed to dry and be stored on a shelf. They are then soaked oveernight and can be added to casseroles or ground up with parsley and a few other ingredients to make falafels. I'm sure other beans would also work. I've only done falafels with broad beans or chickpeas. They are nicer if you take the skins off the beans after soaking (no need with chickpeas), but that's time consuming. Beetroot is versatile as the leaves are also edible. Use them like chard - baby greens in salad, wilted as a side dish, chopped into soups and stews. I do like the roots roasted. I love leeks. Leek and bacon quiche is amazing. Leek, bacon and roast pumpkin makes a great topping on pasta.

Nicely made video! Informative and visually appealing. Yet I feel the best advice for self sufficiency is to grow what you and your family will eat. Things that will stay good in cool storage for a good period of time, potatoes, winter squash, bulb onions. Things that add flavor like garlic and herbs. Maybe 6 was to low of a number to include such things, but I think they are important to help prevent food fatigue.

My list 1. Tomatoes 2. Gherkins 3. Beets 4. Carrots 5. Beans all type 6. Peas

I figured the 6 would be tomatoes, potatoes, beans, cabbage, carrots and onions. Here in Florida, we have 2 opportunities to get crops and sweet potatoes and peppers grow in the heat of summer (Zone 10a). Enjoyed the collaboration with Liz- just found your channel and am binge watching to catch up!

I like the 1 to 2 ratio of onions to leeks. I have a horrible time storing onions so this will be a great fresh alternative. And the bit about keeping bean plants thru the winter is awesome! Thank you Huw and Liz!

I think pumpkin and cassava are also super useful to grow and versatile for many dishes and hardy for any weather. We enjoy eating their leaves and roots and it’s a loving plant that keeps on giving!

Thanks Huw and Liz! Great information as always. God bless you both!

Thank you both so much for this. I had a huge success with leeks last year in a small garden they are in amongst flowers and any space i could find, growing even more this year. Broad beans were also amazing so they are going to be there too. All thanks to your first book Huw.

One lovely thing about swiss chard is that, if it re=seeds itself all over the place (which I encourage and actively assist), you can dehydrate and grind the leaves to make a wonderful "green powder" with any other excess greens (e.g. spinach, mustard, kale, turnip, beet greens) that can be added to all kinds of soups, stews and smoothies year round.

This was an awesome video and thank you so much for mentioning about rethinking how we eat....not strawberries in winter but what our land will grow and thrive with. I love (and grow) the veggies you listed (except turnips) and would like to add carrots (some years less finicky than others but I love them year round) and potatoes (which I can eat every day!. Kale is my "go to" for greens...though there is also swiss chard which will grow almost all year. Some of the greens (kale, swiss, beet tops, etc) can also be used for salads when harvested small. Again thanks for this list and...lucky are the new gardeners who get to view your channel...I've been growing much of the veggies I eat for 20+ years...and had to learn the hard way :)

Love your video . Much applies to us here in Canada grow zone 4 or 5. Not everything will overwinter in the ground in deep winter but I try to preserve more ( ex beets and potatoes). Agree with the concept of not expecting everything all year...not a natural rhythm to that at all...strawberry season gets lost and less valued when we think we can have them all year through imports. Besides the imports off season can’t even come close to in season . I also love kale...also versatile, can grow indoors under light in winter 😊❤️🇨🇦 cheers and thank you

Excellent gardening video and tips. I started my broadbeans in February in the ground but have also started some in a seed tray in March at home and the March ones seem to be doing better than the ones sown directly. The ones in the ground are slowly germinating so hopefully I will have a crop of Sutton broadbeans this year and I will be planting the broadbean plants either this month or next.

Love this video well done both of you. I am going to grow the Greek Gigantes beans after seeing them on Liz’s site. Have also ordered some asparagus but know I will have to wait a couple of years. I just hope it will grow OK here in Scotland.

We're in Oz and have just hit Autumn so we're currently harvesting the last of our Summer crops. I'd like to suggest adding woody herbs to the list as they're absurdly easy to grow and dry really well. They add flavour and interest to any dish and also make great companion plants to help repel pests because of their volatile oil content. Our favourites include rosemary (which also makes a great windbreak shrub), sage, oregano and thyme - and their many varieties. Give them a good cut back each year and they'll keep growing almost forever

Some great suggestions Huw, I would definitely agree with you about Leeks, I love them. If I was to make some other suggestions I would definitely go for Squash, both Summer and Winter varieties. We don't eat very many potatoes but we eat Squash almost every day. Summer varieties are so quick and easy to grow and Winter varieties are great for storing right through the winter and into the hungry gap. Last year we harvested more than 280kgs of winter squash (ten different varieties) and 60Kgs of Summer squash (five varieties) and we still have around 30Kgs left, both fresh and frozen. As far as a leafy veg, I agree with you about Kale, but I think my preference would actually be Chard. When its young we use it as an alternative to spinach but it can be used more like a leafy green over winter. It's incredibly versatile and a great way to add colour to the plate.

pumpkins are very very good to store well into march and even april, well into the hunger gap. One very productive and well preservable variety is the hokkaido or also known as uchiki kuri. you can let the ranking vine climb into stuff to save space even. the pumpkins will hang and mature that way.

I agree with the planning. You can plan to put quick growing companion crops between your slow grow in crops in succession, and get more food from the same area. Radishes for instance: radish leaf soup, fresh radish in a salad, roast radish then pickled or kimchi for winter.

I’m with Liz, maple and parsnip cake is amazing!

Great video! It's so interesting seeing how different gardening is in your country. In the US I don't know anyone who grows leeks but they all say onions and garlic are super easy. But then again there's a supplier in Texas that starts onions from seeds and sells the young plants in bundles of 50-100 for pretty cheap across the country, so they're pretty easy to grow that way, you just plunk them in the ground. I'd add spinach. The variety 'Bloomsdale Longstanding' will last through the winter and then when the weather warms up in February-March they grow like crazy making leaves 13 inches across that are mild and tender.

This is a fantastic video. I appreciate tyne useful growing and cooking information provided with each.

All great choices,Huw. 🙂
