The sale, the timeline, what comes next. My mind has been somewhere else all week. So I went to the garden. Not with a plan. Just to start somewhere. And like it always does, the work took over — mulching, weeding, checking on things, finding the first small harvests coming in. Somewhere in the middle of it an hour went by and my mind had settled. The garden doesn't care what's happening with the move. It just needs tending. And it turns out, so do I. In this video I work through the beds, share what's looking good and what still needs attention, and talk through the practical side of garden maintenance in early summer.

Pam here….so, in Canada can you accept secondary offers that bump up if 1st one don’t meet continencies? Often if waiting for homes to sell up the domino…extensions can be granted. If your seller gives you an extension, you can grant one to your buyer…hopefully the place you are trying buy doesn’t have a 2nd offer looming over you! It is stressful selling/buying/moving….time for a spot of Earl Grey! Smile.
So nice to spend some time with you today. I'm hoping for all to work out for the buying and selling of your home. You deserve nothing but the best! 🙏❤
There are huge benefits to gardening. Huge.
June garden update is here — weeding, mulching, and a little bit of perspective. What's growing in your garden right now?
Your love & enthusiasm of all things growing (that remains as strong as when I first started watching your channel years ago) continues to ignite a flame in my heart… I’m 83 & my gardening days are just a lovely memory…but, you bring such a light in my day. 💖. As far as the stress of the real estate “trickiness” & the sometimes horrible ups & downs of it all, this many decades of living has taught me that even if something does not work out….I always know it’s because God has another better plan… 🕊️
Your garden looks great! Get better soon! For sure you are feeling the stress of the unknown. I wish you all the best and hope everything works out on the sale!
I was so happy (and a bit relieved) to see your video today. I figured you had major stuff going on because you hadn't put up a video in more days than is normal for you. Being in the garden grounds you - the contact with the earth is my healing time, too. A phrase I tell myself a lot in the gardening season is - "To the garden, to the garden, to the garden I go. To clear my mind and restore my soul." I saw that on a plaque once and it is so true! I'm a retired realtor and I know what it's like to me in the middle of multiple contingencies. IT IS NOT FUN - for anyone!
I’m in NW Iowa and finally just got my new raised garden beds planted last week! I’m growing tomatoes, onions, peppers, carrots and squash this year. I hope they all grow well. Thinking about you and your huge gardens and hoping things work out well for the sale of your ranch and your new purchase! I’m looking forward to seeing what you plan on your new place!
I do the same thing! The garden always makes me feel better!
I don’t know if you noticed but you had a hummingbird fly right in front of the camera in the high tunnel.
Pam here….yep a cold ‘is your body sayin’ GIRL! YOU need to take care of ME…this is your warning!”
Sending positive energy your way for the sale of the ranch and move to your new place! Exciting to hear your daughter is experimenting with sourdough baking! It's so much fun 😊
Just going outside is my happy place.. being able to go see what you have accomplished and how beautiful nature is… When our minds are jumbled it effects our physical health as you know… remember you are loved.. you got this God bless 🫶🏻☀️🫶🏻
Glad that by the time you got back inside you feel better! Trust in the Lord, and if it's meant to be, it's going to be yours! God bless you ❤
Yep- I find myself just going outside to look at my very small garden- just to check!!
Thanks
You have convinced me to get some green stalks when you showed me how easy it is to harvest your herbs. Thank you for sharing that 😀
I've been recovering from surgery so I haven't been able to garden much and when I do weed I am achy for a day or two but I still try as much as I can to get my hands in the dirt ❤
Could you show detail of removing the extra blossoms? I am not handling the vole invasion in my tunnel! Actually crying as each plant falls to the creatures!
I just love how real and what a regular person you are! You show the good, bad, and the ugly! And that is exactly what we all need! Questions: 1. How do you keep the landscape fabric from blowing away? Im trying to use this, this year and it has been a nightmare to keep in place!. 2. Also how do you cut your holes? I've also had a terrible time with that as well. 3. More of a statement actually, but there really is something healing and calming about having your hands dirty! Big hugs! I can understand the amount of stress you are under! The little farms that i have, I bought by myself as a divorced, single mom, freshly graduated from nursing school. The stress of everything combined was immense! And is exactly the reason I haven't considered moving in the last 20 years.
