Planting our Vegetable Garden in Alaska | Potatoes, Cabbage & More

We're thrilled to be growing our own food again and just in time for the summer weather. We plant potatoes, cabbage, onions, greens and celery transplants. There's still so much more building and planting to be done but for now we relax with a fireweed shoot and caribou steak dinner.

We appreciate you tagging along for our Alaskan adventure 😀

Thank you for watching and supporting our channel! 💙

“…….i didn’t have many friends.” Well, you have 785, 000 and counting friends now!

Love how happy Ariel gets when she gardens

[colleenlynch]

I found my "people" when I found you guys. THE #1 channel in the world. May God bless you and keep you safe!

About 5 weeks and counting till our fam of 4, and pets, makes the 4, 200 mile journey moving from northern NY to Fairbanks! Our house here is under contract and our new house outside FAI is also under contract. The excitement and anticipation of our new adventure is overshadowed by the immense logistics and stress just to get there. You two, and this awesome channel, are a big inspiration for my wife and I. Watching your episodes helps us unwind and keep our 'eye on the prize" navigating all this chaos. Thank you so very much and we wish you much success.

I love how happy Ariel is while gardening. The little onion dance 😂

Time for all you gardners who havent subscribed to jump aboard. If you havent watched these two through a whole cycle of growing, harvesting, canning and putting magnificent meals in front of you, you havent lived! Its gonna be a great ride for the next few months. Please subscribe and support them. They have earned it!

Arielle, I totally identify with you on every single level of gardening! From wanting to try new strains that you haven't grown before, to the MAJOR importance of healthy soil, to NOTHING else mattering when its time to plant! It's crazy how excited I am to see your garden this year😂! ❤✌🌱🌞

Bandit’s delight in the water made me laugh out loud. Love that guy. ❤️

My father, an avid gardener for all his 101 years, used to say that the best fertilizer is the gardener's shadow! 🙂

Eric had 2 1/2 rows potato in and Ariel had 1/2 row but personal relationship with each potato as she put them in. Awesome team.

My son and I were recently discussing YouTube channels and discovered we both like your channel a lot. In fact I stated that one of the reasons I like the channel is that you share chores, there are no men or women chores. My son responded and she works just as hard as he does, not that Eric doesn’t work hard you both do.

We absolutely love your channel!! My husband and I are veterans and are into the homestead lifestyle for ourselves and our children. We felt your loss of Beau (not sure of spelling), but have had a litter of 4th generation Grand night champion bluetick coonhound pups we would like you to have one of. We recently visited Alaska and understand the need for protection of animals or firearms and have a growing love of our animals and homestead. The challenges it brings are learning experiences we can only grow from.

The old man is enjoying the water as always!

[omaruth]

I love when you show all the beautiful flowers with all the colors!! I remember when you got your place, it looked almost liked it did when you had moved in. I got alittle emotional when you showed it all empty, but ya'll made it looked great. Sometimes you do have to move on, and the home you have now will make many memories. See ya'll next time 😊❤

It's nice to see other people appreciate good potatoes like we do in Northern Europe

[jodyessenhigh]

Arielle in her happy place - so excited for you to have your garden back and what a garden. Cannot wait to see it all finished they way you guys have imagined it. As usual Eric's skills are also shining through. 😊

[loristephens]

My Uncle Toby had a hen who would follow him around in the garden, pouncing on every bug he stirred up. He got the biggest kick out of that he. The garden is looking wonderful. Are you sure you don't want to put a chain on that gate? A moose could sure wreck havoc in there, panic, and really tear things up!? ❤❤To all Lori from Oregon. It was sure fun seeing Bandit playing in the water!

I came into my office at 5am this morning. I watched this over coffee and doing my morning exercises. Your sunrise photography is absolutely stunning. I continue to live vicariously and channel the energy from you both. I'm in my 80's and you help me remember when we lived in the woods and had a huge garden. We love you guys!

[missabeth]

I remember from a Q&A, Eric said he liked the nature scenes when editing, and we do too! Beautiful intro Eric!

[carlapierle]

I bet Arielle's face hurt from smiling after making this video! You can see how the garden is definitely her happy place!
