I'm sure it's too late because I'm sure the video is days old. But next time you cut off the carrot tops, dehydrate them and use them almost like oregano or basil. Oh... and I have to share with Meg. I turned my Mom onto The Hollar Homestead years ago. She literally was enthralled with you guys. She even went back and watched every single video you made. She ordered some of your soap and was so tickled to death about it. Unfortunately, she passed last August. I've been cleaning out her house and today I found 2 of the 4 bars of soap she ordered from you. I'm now the proud owner of 2 bars of Bumblewood soap. I can't wait to try it. Love you guys!

I wondered about the carrot tops. I have seen people use them for making pesto. Think i will give that a try. Thanks for sharing.

Ok. Dang it. I have rotted wood. I have room to dig a trench and I have 3/4 bag of potatoes that are growing in the bag. So I guess I know what I’m doing this afternoon ….😆

I about fell out of my chair laughing when Buggy announced "These berries are MINE!" As the little sister to two older brothers, I totally relate to that statement hun!! 🤣🤣

Buggy is getting so tall! What a joy she is to watch with her daddy. You're all such a wonderful family, thanks for the glimpses into your days.

I have wondered about them as well. They never told us that they would not be posting, so I was concerned that there might be a health problem or an emergency that would prevent them from posting videos.

You and Buggie digging potatoes made me smile the whole time. I remember digging potatoes with my daddy. I remember the cool dirt under my feet after daddy plowed them. 😊♥️

I remember getting into the rows my dad had watered and sinking up to my knees, then playing in the mud wallow I'd created until he found me. 😅Yep, makes sense that my first word was 'dirt'.

Always enjoy little Buggie singing wherever she is, doing whatever makes her happy! Precious!

Never tire of your sweet family and in awe of how much work you’ve done! Meg is the perfect homesteading person, wife, and mama! 💕

Meg is so cute! Seeing Ben holding that baby was so adorable. And buggy being his morning chore buddy is so cute. I can't even believe how big she's getting.

It won’t be long until you have another sweet girl following you.

Cut those baby potatoes in half and can them with green beans. We love our green beans and potatoes!

Ben, I love your relationship with Buggie. She is growing up at your feet, and she will look back at all this time spent together with great fondness. You are a blessed family. AND, FYI 24 pounds of organic fingerling potatoes on Azure right now are $70!! So great savings!

That’s a nice patch of veggies it would be so nice to go out and pick your supper. I think your a true farmer Ben. I can see how much you like to plant and grow your own food and Meg loves to cook. Perfect match.

Love your perspective, it's like a breath of fresh air in a sea of sameness.

Many of us love to follow your family vlog. I am very worried that all is not ok with you all as your vlogs have stopped. Please be to god nothing has happebed. You are all in my nightly prays. God bless you all. 🙏

New potatoes and peas with a cream sauce. 😋

I love ALL The Hollar Homestead videos!

It would make a fabulous video if you gave us your total numbers of what your meat , eggs , & produce has saved you for even just a year at the going prices. I bet it's several thousand dollars ! Cause we know Meg is all about those numbers !! Lol. Great video today .

Buggy, you are absolutely a farm girl and a great farm girl at that!

Wow! When I started this there were 299 views and now it's over 1k! Y'all are loved!!

This year I have found the Coast of Maine soils and composts to be the best I've ever used. Have been so disappointed with the other brands which have turned out to be just bags of shredded wood that has not been composted or cleaned. Have lost many seedlings to crappy soil. So it was refreshing to see what's in Coast of Maine thriving.

From a mother to a mother. I bet Meg just loves watching all these videos while she’s editing she gets to see what all boogie is doing and her wonderful talking planting potatoes with her daddy, that’s a treasure❤

Buggy’s braided pigtails are everything!..she’s absolutely precious!..that was a great haul of potatoes for a bonus bed!..well done Ben…love you guys..thanks so much for sharing your lives with all of us..blessings from your biggest Western NC fan❤🙏🏻

Love seeing Buggy laying in the sunbeam on the floor while Meg makes dinner. ❤

WOW! Buggy is your little right hand gal.... and oh how she has grown! Makes my heart soar every time I see her out with Dad on the farm...and after all... like she says... she is a "farm girl". SHE IS SO TALL and THINNED OUT NOW! Perfect timing for the newborn.... Love your family!

💕💗💕🙏🙏🙏 Blessed with a great harvest of potatoes,beets,and carrots. Blessed with a beautiful family. Blessed with a delicious supper. What more could one ask for. Thank The Lord Jesus Christ for you all !!! 💕💗💕

my goodness i just realized how tall buggy is. she gonna be long legged like her daddy she is such a treasure ❤❤❤

Mark Shepard? I'm listening to his book Restoration Agriculture on Audible right now

I love to see you and Buggi working in the garden. She loves working with you and exploring the many treasures in your gardens.❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊

I love how you guys use everything. Waste not want not my mom used to say.

Good afternoon, thank you for sharing your harvest today! It brought back memories of being on the farm when i was a child and all the food my grandmother and aunts used to preserve, well first dig up and clean and then preserve. I have many happy memories of that farm and my grandmother who would be 115 today. Have a lovely evening.

Just a small 10-minute thunderstorm. Dropped 20° to 78° Last night, lots of heat lightning for over an hour. We only had sprinkles. Many got hit hard with terrible storms. A big mess. Lots without power. BLESSED. All is WELL. THANK GOD. EXCITED 52 FRIDAY SHOPTALK YES🎉🎉🎉🎉 SE MICHIGAN 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 GREAT PICKINS OF FOOD. PIGS ARE HAPPY.

It’s fun watching the kids help & get excited about their harvest! The baby sure is growing. So sweet & Buggy too.

Hello? Hi - yes can I book a table for two at Meg's Kitchen Restaurant ? 7:00 pm is perfect. Are Baby snuggles included? Ta. See you then!

3:54 Buggie sets clear and distinct boundaries. Good on you girl❕

That's what I did this week. Replanted some potato plants after taking the biggest ones off. I just plant peels and that is where I get all the potatoes that I grow.

I pray that everything is well with your beautiful family ❤ I'm really missing your videos.

I remember gardening with my Dad, I was one of six children and I was the only one that liked to garden so that got me lots of quality time with him. Buggie is a wonderful helper and it is sweet to see her spending time with her Dad and learning!!!

So cute watching you and buggy picking potatoes. The thing I do with tiny potatoes is wash them, slice them in half, coating them with olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper and parmesan cheese. Then bake them in the oven till done.

Sure wish that Meg could electronically ship what she cooks via video's. ;) Loved the whole family interaction today,

"Butter makes everything better!" So true..

I rember finding your channel through Art and Bri when he came over to help with the remodel. I have enjoyed watching your family life on the farm. I wish I could live on a farm like I grew up on.

I have been meaning to build a Hugleculture bed… glad yours worked so well! Good to hear! I just love how Buggie has been your helper! What a great kid! ❤ Love your channel! 💚🙌🏽

I love eating from the garden, delicious! Buggie is so darn cute! ❤

Buggy is a great farmer, love how she enjoys being with you and learning. Your boys are so great they jump in and really know what there doing, your both good teachers. Life long learning that will always help them. Love your family.

I hope all is well with our Favorite u-tube Family God Bless YOU

Getting worried about you guys. Am sending heaps of prayers your way!🙏

When you see your two orange cats together, you really can see the difference. Love little sister 🥰. She reminds me as a little sister. I'm a much older sister these days 😉.

I absolutely love your channel and your family! What a blessing to be part of your life through videos. I even got my mom to start watching and now she’s going to order from your store. BUT the reason for this comment is for Buggy…let her know that me and mom say GROW everytime we put a plant in the ground. We actually just did it this morning 🤣 thank you for your informative videos you’ve taught me so much and thank you for sharing so much. Your family is loved and blessed.

I have to tell you, those chicken rolls of yours are now a favorite of my family. So delicious, and my new favorite way to use up leftover chicken.

Ben: I will say theres some itty bitty ones... Meg: That's ok, we can still eat 'em Meg: *licks lips in anticipation* ❤😂❤

Probably a little heads up so people do not worry too much. A simple we are taking a break. I hope nothing bad happened.

QUESTION: What's the status of the addition? Is it waiting funding, inspection, cooler days, the baby to get a little older, slowing down of all the farming things, or some combination of all the things?

Was Meg a chef at some point in her life or prior life. She has a impressive knowledge of preparing food.😊

Good job Meg, with the bread dough you couldn't have done any better. Meg 💥💙❗❗❗💙💥

the best potting soil ever:) I started my gated in New Hampshire with branches and hunks of wood then put soil over it and was the best garden ever..

When you were pouring the chicken into the bowl I thought PINWHEELS . I wish I could have had some of those. Thanks for the video!

Ben, thanks been wondering how the back garden was doing not bad amount of potatoes. Same with carrots and beets always nice seeing the boys helping out. Buggy the farm girl so adorable and love her pigtails Meg. Meg, the chicken pinwheels oh my looked so delicious. Have a great weekend. Blessings to you and the family. 😊🇺🇲

early harvest of potato's we call 'new potatos' in the UK, they are really good cleaned boiled or baked, i like to halve them coat in butter and air fry them, mini roast potato's, great for salads or snacking...

Sending hugs and prayers to you and your family ❤️😙❤️

Yea Maine!! 💚🙌🏽 Proud Mainer here!! 👋🏽 Coast of Maine has great products! So we run a horse farm here in Maine and take our manure to a compost facility about two miles from our farm. Bensons Farm. They make the absolute BEST compost called Surf & Turf. I adore it for my gardens! Fun fact.. they recently took a humpback whale that washed up passed 😢 in our local harbor to their facility to compost. They use so much seafood shells/ waste, coffee grounds, animal waste etc.. it’s an impressive facility/ operation!!

❤Buggy found the best treasure

Can't beat the taste of a garden grown carrot.

Buggie is soooo smart!! She IS a little “farm girl”!!! ❤️❤️

Hollar Family---My goodness. You are Goodness. Thank you for sharing your authenticity!

Megs runaway bread sure is amusing... Your hugelkultur mound at the dugout that stays moist all the time, is really genius... All that good farm air and farm food sure is making Buggy stretch... from teany potatoes to baseball plus sized beets mother nature is smiling at your farm... And with Millie and Sketch leading the pack... You just know... "All Is Well At This Homestead."

Dad and his sidekick. Priceless! Memories for you to hold on to for ever.

Praying all is well with the Hollar Homestead family ❤

Hey Hollers 👋, I bought a bag of those babies and planted them in the Greenstalk 👍. I've made seed potatoes out of them and they are up and running out of the Pots as we speak! The beast place for a Farm Girl is in the garden with Daddy😍. She also knows where the treats grow😂. 🤔 spoiled by Mumma 🤗. Happy Harvesting 😊. JO JO IN VT 💞

❤❤❤ Good afternoon WONDERFUL family. I hope you have a good weekend. ❤❤❤

Nothing better than baby potatoes in cream with fresh dill. Soooo yummy.

Love seeing the woods,please show more often and all your harvesting.hi buggie and El❤

Wow what a harvest haul. With a big family it certainly a huge bonus helping with good tucker. Love seeing all the kids chip in the reaping the harvest. Great family involvement. All in ... ❤ just helping the next generation learning the great skills of providing for family

I love to harvest cook and eat nettles. I even par boil and freeze for the winter. My favorite is adding them to scrambled eggs.

I don't have an appetite when I'm hot either. Moe is my spirit animal; doing what I wish I could do...lay down in the shade.🤜 Have a blessed weekend!!! ✌️💖🙏🇺🇲🇮🇱✝️🕊️🙌

I am a farm girl. Ben starts so early in morning and there is his little farm girl so beautifully turn out. ❤❤🌻🌻
