I built this garden from scratch with no experience. I lost the lawn, said goodbye to the grocery store and built this garden to feed my family. Here's how I did it and you can too!

    Fun tip - I got my cattle panels from tractor supply for $1 each. They had a stack of "damaged" ones off to the side and I asked them if they'd sell them. The employee asked how much I'd pay and I offered $1 a piece. Not sure if every place would do the same deal, but if you see some slightly bent panels off to the side, it sure wouldn't hurt to ask and they'd function as a trelliss all the same.

    WOW! She came directly to the point, stayed on topic and showed a few different ways and explained it all EXTREMELY well! I'm not sure if I've ever watched a video this full of information while at the same time being as simple as possible. Just, wow!

    The garden looks very organized, thank you for sharing! Love the wood chip to cover the pathways, great value for no cost in material.

    ANOTHER great video!!!!❤ I've been gardening for a few years now and have implemented sooooo many of these techniques for my garden! The raised beds, in-ground, containers, wood chips vs. pea gravel (roger is a tree guy, my wood chips are free😊). I smile when watching your videos! They're educational, clear, concise, informative and heartwarming. Thx for sharing!!!!!❤ HSTL Zone6

    Love love love, your videos! How on earth do you do not have 500k followers, as you surely deserve them❤
  • I am going to tell you this has to be the number one best video I have seen out there for the size of garden that I'm looking to build. I love your breakdown. I love your layout. I love your simple yet affordable & rational approach and, It's all very doable!!! I have been racking my brain. Watching videos reading books Pinterest, Instagram, you name it and just stumbling on your video has inspired me. I have a huge garden area we grew in last year and wanted to break it into pieces and trying to figure out how to make it more market garden friendly. And accessible and fencing!!!! You really hit the nail on the head and touched on every single thing I personally have been trying to deal with!!! Thank you, thank you. This was so amazing.❤❤❤❤❤

    This was the most educational and informative video I have watched for garden layout, raised beds, trellis's, electric solar fencing and so much more! I absoultely love to garden and have plans on extending my garden. Garden layout is so important. Thank you for going over that. I look forward to seeing more inspiring and educational videos in the future.
