How is the garlic doing?

Frugal Queen in France sent me over – I will check out your videos

Jane & Mike from the Frugal Queen of France recommended your channel highly . The mushroom culture will appreciate darkness not complete but they were originally harvested in caves so a dappled light , they flourish on decaying wood with decaying leaves no walnut which aren’t good for them . Your doing good thanks for sharing .

You have every reason to be proud of yourselves!

🙏☘️😘

Excellent stuff! What progress you have made! Can hardly wait to see how it changes as the seasons progress.😀👌🏻

Hola. Poco a poco estáis haciendo una labor muy buena. Saludos

Living the dream ..of the Good life…well done Margo..your getting the hang of being in front of camera…Soon be Christmas…plenty of Xmas trees 🎄 around there…
I've so many questions…There has to be a lot of practical considerations and trade offs like.
Have you emigrated
National Insurance
Income streams
The house in the UK .rented out.Fall back position
Your outgoings in Portugal. Or taxes local charges.
Healthcare.
Heating the house in Portugal
Having said all of this.
Have you thought of a name for "the land"
Like" The Orchard" A rustic sign post for it. far more descriptive on your videos.
On a more positive note,
I apologise I am a practical being
You have worked miracles
I love the Orchard and the Lake.
I take it your almost Organic.
I'm amazed your planting in Autumn as it's freezing here.
I'm made up your clearly enjoying the satisfaction of seeing progress.
Your out the rat race.
The climate is just wonderful
More time to be outside, and be healthy..
Outdoor gym
I'd certainly think about a couple of storm straps for your green house from a camping store…or anything over the top to hold it down.
Your video editing and honesty and openness is to be applauded.
Well done you pair…
AMAZING xx

Lots and lots of food for you to enjoy! We can go some things year round here also. I love not waking up one morning to a hard frost and no more flowers or growing things in the garden! That used to be a very sad day for me. You can raise many kinds of fruit that we can't there as well. We are not able to raise any stone fruits in this climate. So no plums, peaches, necterines, cherries, ect. I live at an altitude of approx. 3,800 ft above sea level. On the side of low mountain range over looking the Pacific Ocean. At sea level it is very hot and humid. At this altitude the temps. Stay in the 70's and 80's farenhite! Usually we have a breeze as well.

The plan of the looks fabulous- well organised well done!

First, congrats on the wheelbarrow!!! Lovely to see everything grow (3°c here 🇩🇰) and nice to enjoy it from here. See you in the next one!

I’m really enjoying your videos.

Great tour, many thanks for that. Excellent to see your property from the air, as it makes it easier to put it into perspective. 👍🇦🇺🦘

Well done both of you! Its coming together nicely. 😊

the bushy one is a medronheiro 🙂

Darren you and Elaine have accomplished so much on your land. It's wonderful how you recycle and not waste. Carry on. Bev USA I'm enjoying and learning so much from your video's. 😊

Se gostarem de amoras, podem comprar um pé de amoreiras sem espinhos. Se gostarem do sítio onde são plantadas, junto a um muro alto, crescem bastante e dão imensas amoras grandes. Plantei a minha, quase no fim da primavera e no verão já tinha muitas amoras. Mas tudo depende das centenas de microclimas que temos no país. Na minha zona da Beira Alta, poucas flores, para além das roseiras, resistem bem ao inverno. Penso que estão a fazer um bom trabalho no vosso terreno. Dá gosto ver.

Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love you guys, beautiful people making paradise.

Execelente vlog

Great minds think alike! Wheelbarrow!

We love the drone footage. It certainly gave us a better perspective of the land. We share you happiness for the wheel barrow. Cheers and have a great evening. Stay safe.

Another great video 👍 loved the aerial view, good job doing that 🎉

Another great vlogmass , the garden is looking great you must talk to the plants Elaine. Your hard work is reaping rewards 😊🌼🌺🌻

Mushrooms were grown in the cellar at my polish auntie in poland. Utube commercial growers put them in dark cold rooms

Hello, Elaine, I would have been just as excited to get a new wheelbarrow too! Thank you for the tour.

I absolutely love the Drone footage & seeing your village & the property from above! It was so nice to see the before & after of the property! Big change in less than 3 months! Elaine I LOVE YOUR BOOTS!!! Here in Nebraska we call them rain boots or on the farms they are “irrigation boots”. Blessings! 💜

What a great use of an old pallet! I love the way that you are reusing and recycling so many things. The poly tunnel looks like a great place to work out of the cold and rain.

Did you say you were needing some straw? Debbie fro Portugal Dreamzzz said they've got some left in their barn that could be useful to someone's garden beds. Not sure how close/far you are to each other tho 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Another great video xsee you guys tomorrow xx

Your land is absolutely amazing I can't keep up with it all! I guess there will be no kissing and no colds with all the garlic you are growing lol x

When you mentioned cauliflower 😳 I had visions of wild boar 🐗 Inviting all their friends to a big party 🎉 😂🤣
I pray 🙏 this can be avoided. But a night vision camera could be interesting 📸

Espectacular o vosso novo vídeo. Espero contribuir um bocadinho para aprenderem português 🙂

Estão a fazer um trabalho incrível. O lago está lindíssimo, as camas à volta das árvores com pedras e a horta está tudo muito bonito e cuidado. A bancada de trabalho ficou também muito bonita e prática 

Parabéns! Continuem o bom trabalho! 

P.S. O carrinho de mão vai dar muito jeito nos trabalhos! O Max é um cão muito carinhoso.

Beijinhos
