Thanks for sharing. I love seeing what other Maine homesteaders are doing. It is so inspiring.

I don’t like wood mulch for garden beds more so for the trees and walkways I lay it on thick so weeds aren’t a problem. Garden beds would appreciate leaf mulch over chips. Paper mulch is cool too whatever I shred I will put as mulch it invites worms as well as they love paper and who doesn’t want worm castings? Also just good old cardboard laid out on the bed first then cut holes for whatever your planting. I was gonna mention one other thing but it has escaped me lol thanks for the tour!❤

We are in a short growing season as well currently (and moving to Robbinston Maine next year), have you ever tried overwintering your peppers? Habaneros and a lot of peppers will take a while to start producing and only really grow well once it's 70 degrees+. We've had a lot of luck overwintering the peppers inside. They start producing as soon as it's warm instead of having to grow then start producing!

Hi! Another Mainer here. I moved to a house last year with an established black raspberry bush and I think the old canes will die off and not produce new fruit. Easier to find pruning info on raspberries vs black raspberries on YT for sure but I think those old canes can be pruned. Love your videos! I uploaded a garden one as well last week and immediately privated it 😂

I’m in Maine too! We just started our first garden this year. I’m from Massachusetts and my parents never had a garden! So this is very new to me! But I’m so excited, and I love watching your videos. Please post more. Such an inspiration!
