MEMBERS ONLY Vlog - Goats & Garden
Added 2022-08-14 14:42:14 +0000 UTCHi guys! I wanted to give you an update on my search for goats. I was recently scammed, and share that story here. Who would've thought - over goats?!?! I also talk about my plans for the garden next season, and the ways in which I need to simplify. If you have any experience with goats, hit me up!
And a new video is going up on my YouTube channel today, so please watch, like, and subscribe! I appreciate your support :)

That is so kind of you to offer and suggest that. I do have Venmo if anyone would like to donate any amount over their membership at any time. It all goes back into what Iβm building here on the homestead. Thanks so much π https://venmo.com/code?user_id=2651629744553984417&created=1660909832.3383842&printed=1 Or use @naked-gardener

2022-08-19 11:54:31 +0000 UTCI'm relatively new here but I'll bet that a bunch of us would be happy to chip in to help with the cost of getting your goats including the amount that the person scammed you on. If you are ok with us helping more than just our monthly Patreon subscription please create a Venmo or the likes and post it for us. It will be fun watching the goats and your education in your ever expanding farming skills.

2022-08-15 09:36:41 +0000 UTCIve been a patreon fan of yours for about a year, and I still love every video sooo much. Im excited for you to experience goats. Just, as others have said, be warned it makes you a full time fence repairer too. but if you can ever get them to walk with you in the forest, its soo magical

2022-08-14 17:49:06 +0000 UTCGreat idea about the goat milk soaps and lotions! Iβll have to keep that in mind. I try to keep my greenhouse neat and tidy, like I do my house, but at the beginning of the season when Iβm planting a lot of seeds it can get pretty wild in there haha. And you are so right on about how most things are out of our control. You just have to learn how to let go and adapt.

2022-08-14 17:44:41 +0000 UTCI heard that too about goats, and am counting on it. I hope they eat every last bit of poison ivy here lol

2022-08-14 17:43:14 +0000 UTCI lost 33 head when a lawn service thought it ok to toss all the Azalea clippings over my fence. Never let them eat Azaleaβs.

2022-08-14 16:48:33 +0000 UTCI hope this doesnβt get too long but here it goes. First Iβm impressed by the neatness and organization of your greenhouse. I thought mine was good but yours tops it. Secondly, enjoy the goats. Dealing with people online is quite often disappointing. There are lots of dishonest people out there. We know someone who had a nice herd of goats. She makes amazing soaps with the milk. She sells it online and at local fairs. Seeing how you do such an amazing job with your teas you might want to consider something like this in the future. Thirdly, yes gardening is so unpredictable. Itβs a lot out of our control although I think most things in our lives are out of our control. We humans delude ourselves by thinking we are in control. I have a 50x80 ft vegetable garden as well as additional fruits and flowers. I do 99% of it due to a disability my mice developed 10 years ago. I actually spend only a few hours a week in the vegetable garden except in planting season. Iβve developed nice routines. You will too. It takes time and experience but you seem to have the drive and intellect to do the same. Please stay well. Donβt feel overwhelmed

2022-08-14 16:33:14 +0000 UTCThanks for sharing your experiences. And good luck with your plans. Goat scamming? I never even knew that was a thing. I guess this channel really is educational.

2022-08-14 16:31:47 +0000 UTCWell, I really like the new video, very classy! I am glad that you went with your gut feelings regarding the goats, gotta follow your heart. Glad to hear things are recovering from your illness. BTW, I understand that goats will eat poison oak and Ivy before anything else, they even pull the roots from the ground.
