Dear Starry, I have been watching your channel for some time now, I have watched every U-Tube U have made and watched them 10 times each and have learned from them every time I watch them. Susan and I put together a box garden 8' X 16' using Cow pup, rotted hay, rotted and new wood chips from a local saw mil. I did place 2 X 4s at each end and ram heavy green twine across the top and hook Deer mesh around the garden to keep birds and Deer out. This project began July 1. Here in Georgia this summer it was 90 to 104 most days the hottest summer ever and broke the original record from 1845. We planted everything in it and watered the gardan every night for 6 weeks. In August we started harvesting food and the garden is producing more than the local gardans and they are 2 to 4 acers. Thank U for teaching us this back to eaden, no til maintance free garden. Paul & Susan North Georgia

you want to teach life but you putting attire of death, i find it disturbing to show my student this video clip
Hellllo starry…nice garden. Very beautiful…you I mean..
wow your so buatiful how can… wow can i add you?
Starry is going to need our help, she has been in a bad accident. Details are
here: https://www.gofundme.com/starryhilder
A GoFundMe page was started on her behalf. Even $1 would go a long way to help her
during this crisis in her and her family's life. I created an email address that
I will share with Starry and her family, they will receive 100% of the proceeds
by using this address. I have listed the address at the hospital where you can
send cards or care packages on the GoFundMe page if you prefer send something
through the mail, just so everything is in one central location. Starry has a
daytime job as a nurse and needs our support to help with bills and running her
homestead while she is recovering. As you all know she also contributes
immensely to her homestead's upkeep and her contribution will be missed. If
everyone donates only $1 it will go a long way to help her keep things running.
If you can't donate but still want to help, here is a poster you can
print and share: http://tinyurl.com/j988m54
Here is
a link to an update video she posted yesterday: https://youtu.be/4Til0Cj-yKc
Thank you for anything you can do to help.
Love the organic garden! I'm concerned about the chemicals leeching from old tires though, care to comment?
I love your way of life. A lesson in filming: If you move the camera too much it causes the viewer headache. Best is to move it slowly. Think always what the viewer will get to see. Ans before uploading please watch it yourself.
Beautiful scenery, articulate talk, and a beautiful person. You look sexy even though you're probably my mom's age. I guess being close to nature might contribute to it.
I like everything you sat but i live on the desert is more difficult to get any plant like food for me to grow,the summer is to hot and i real to try same became good but my tomatoes plants not to good ,maybe bad seeds ..but last year was good. any way over hear is to hot….maybe 7 months per year …for sure ..!! i have same production but i will like more.
How do you start your own organic seed bank from veggies grown?
We went by a saw mill yesterday and saw all those wood chips and I thought about Back to Eden gardening that you talk about Starry! Well that is a start. Never had heard about it until I started watching your videos. Love the idea!
Starry, Have you thought about growing grapes? Mine are 2 years into the plan and next year I should have grapes which means juice and raisins hopefully. Also, do you have slugs in your area or is your elevation too high. Or perhaps that is what the PBR is for. :)
I think you are a wonderful human being. I love your videos and wanted to thank you.
I want you. OK guess I will watch….
U really do need to verify the validity of the USDA seal, a lot of companies that sell these seeds can put the seal in different colors or in a slightly design to just have the seal on their seeds without having them be truly organic
Just a friendly PSA :)
Thank you for sharing the back to Eden method. It saved my garden during a severe drought when I was on vacation and my house sitter was unable to tend to it due to a family emergency.
I heard you mention the differences between organic and hybrid and I think you meant between organic and non-organic. Any plant can be grown organically. There is a big difference between heirloom and hybrid, especially if you save seeds. Heirlooms will give you true seed and next generation plants where hybrids may or may not. Keep up the great work! ; )>
We have a lot of mice and snakes in the garden. Does the Back to Eden method help with those too? The mice constantly plow through just planted rows and cause a lot of damage. Also because of the grass we have all over we always need to watch out for snakes. Have you or anybody ever seen snakes launching on the wood chips? Do the mice go though the wood chips?
I would like to give the Back to Eden method a try but would like to know if it would help with the mice and snakes.
Have her show you the DUMP she calls a front yard..
