Even though you're gone dear sir, you are still helping some of us folks out here trying to carry on the tradition. Thank you.

Harvested the final succession for the year of my QuickPik Purple Hulls yesterday. A staple part of The Gardens every year since I was introduced to 'em years back with this video. (They're not real popular up here in Ohio).

Miss you Donald ...

If I've learned one thing from you, it's water, water, water them in!

So beautiful, I love to watch your gardens grow.

Iove you call the dog "useless". Beans are going into ground this weekend in NC and I already dug up a serving of new potatoes! Thanks for all your help!

I learn so much by watching your videos, and keep gaining more knowledge with each viewing, and know how you do your planting and removing of weeds, and removing the crop after it has grown up. I hope you are having a nice week, and continued to be blessed by God.

Hey Jeff and Deb, with a one acre garden you can probably grow enough for several families. You’ll certainly be able to can enough to last till next season. Good luck and glad the videos helped…..Donald

That sure beats bending down on your hands and knees planting them in. That's what I do, but I don't have any other choice but to do it that way. Thanks for sharing.

We have watched your videos for almost two years. We've had two 1000 sq ft test gardens. Now we're stepping up our game to one acre thanks to your guidance via YouTube. Please those videos coming! Jeff and Deb

I've never seen a plow that actually made a hill. That's a cool piece of equipment. We always just used a 2 row corn planter to lay off the garden. thumbs up!

Hey Donald, get you a peice of pvc pipe 1/2 is a good size. Cut the lenght so you can sit in your cart. Put the pvc where you want the seed and drop it down the pipe. Pretty simple and easy on the back. You can do this standing up also.
