IS THIS THE END OF HARVEST

good morning everybody how you doing today my name's andrew i'm lauren hi i'm kimberly i'm aunt becky and we're some of the veggie boys and girls and we want to thank you for stopping by if you're new here consider subscribing we can do a lot of things on the farm but one thing we can't do is grow this channel without your help what's that mr tractor oh okay yeah don't forget to like the video it's just sloppy out guys it's just raining and sloppy we just got done here in the cafeteria we got everyone their food we just bed everyone up this morning everyone looks good right yeah oh what's your name gonna be i'm so excited you're so cute you're so cute what's your name gonna be it's a little on the chilly side today but we wanted to open up the door get the fresh air rolling in for the cavs we're gonna take the four-wheeler for a quick ride i know it's gonna be cold but what are you gonna do grammy wants us to go check some red beats grammy wants us to go check some red beats that we have planted out in the field she needed a little air in the back tires how many of you guys have ever done this it's exciting i don't want to say that's the best part about using the air compressor but uh this is the worst part and we're off whoa check it out guys look at my wife's sunflowers i'm gonna have to come back and cut these because it's going to be cold here the next couple days and i think it's finally going to be the end of these something else i want to show you really quick before we get over to the red beets this right here is where we planted all that sweet corn under that biodegradable mulch and as i'm looking i see tiny pieces of mulch in certain places but it has done such a nice job of breaking down and then we went through and put our cover crop over the top so this is going to be completely gone by next year oh that's so cool i'm happy that worked out the way it did okay let's see what we can find we'll just pull a couple here uh no any large oh here we go here's a couple okay yeah there's one oh here's another a few large ones but not too many it is really cold right now driving on this four-wheeler right little horsey that's not our horse that's the neighbor's horse yeah my ears are frozen again girls i'm going to cut sunflowers so i hope you're excited about that we're very excited our customers are going to be excited we love sunflowers has it been busy in here today or no steady but not crazy it's raining people don't want to come out so we thought it was best to go back and pick these sunflowers because it's going to get colder as the day goes on they're not my sunflowers i brought lauren out here she is the one that's gonna pick the sunflowers she has her chicken boots on i'm ready i like to take most of the flour the stem the leaves off because they won't fit as easily into the jar i want to make sure they fit nicely into the jar we've been raising and selling cut sunflowers for quite a while i used to do it before lauren and i got married but now we do it together our wedding now lauren why do you like sunflowers so much everyone needs to know they've always been my favorite flower and they also were the flowers that i used for our wedding so they're very special you guys are learning a lot about us today sunflowers always look to the sun so they teach us a good lesson to always look at the positive side of things don't look at the negative look at the bright side what guys here i thought we weren't going to have any more vegetables in the video i wasn't gonna be allowed to call myself the veggie boys anymore but look at that we got more vegetables for you even if it's just a little bit i'm just kidding i'm never gonna stop calling myself the veggie boys come on she thinks she can just use my shirt to clean her hands yeah she can i'm sorry grammy this is all i found i looked i walked up and down the rows and oh well it's enough to make for me these are the ones that the deer ate and then here are the other ones i'll show you something that's incredible about plants as long as they are alive look right here [Music] even though something was eating them they're still doing their best to push out more growth and that's what's amazing about plants they are super tough you know sometimes we have plants that we have bad weather come through or another problem and they just seem to push right through i'm gonna jar these up in a few minutes i have something else i have to do but i just want to show you these are the sunflowers that we got pretty incredible for the middle of november it's no secret we had a really good year with vegetables and we think this is one of the big reasons why this filter or as we call it big fatty did a lot of good work for us now inside this filter there is filter gravel and filter sand and the job that this has is wherever we're irrigating from the water comes through here and it's cleaned filtered to get rid of all impurities and then by the use of big fatty we disperse all the water to the different types of irrigation systems we use whether it was pipe irrigation for the cabbage broccoli cauliflower or dripline for the tomatoes peppers and anything else we needed we're being really careful with it because we want to get this out of the field because it's going to freeze here in a couple nights and you can never get all the water out of them and these things they're not the cheapest so we don't want to break it how you feeling dad i feel good i feel in my hands really [Music] well guys do you think we had a problem with our palette look at that we had set it on this palette in the beginning of the year with the thought that we're eventually gonna have to move it might as well put it on a strong palette it didn't matter this thing got full of water crushed it immediately we have a blue hose that runs along our field and it was helping to distribute water to all the different fields that we have now we have to get this blue hose out of the field because we want to make sure that nothing puts holes in it because we want to reuse it for next year [Music] would your hands get dirty that's what happens when you work let me see your hands oh my no no look baby dish pan hands so how do you feel about it getting colder now i'm ready for a break then i'll be ready to go at it again you know where we're gonna start right greenhouses i like the greenhouses the greenhouses are nice when it's like 20 15 degrees outside it's like 65 70 even 80 inside it's like being on vacation you want to lean jake against the tree so he doesn't have to lay down all winter come on jake i got you what yeah yeah i'll be back for you later [Music] we're discussing where we're planning things next year so we're kind of talking about beans cabbage over here and then we're talking about putting sweet corn down through here so this is when you start the process about what you're going to plant next year it's time to figure it out we just got the filter unloaded we have it put in the shop so it's all nice and protected so that thing's out of the weather that's one job done how does that look for the middle of november guys gorgeous [Music] this morning my dad went to the wholesaler and he picked up a few different things i just wanted to show you guys what we have out here we're fortunate that we have a wholesaler that lives relatively close so we're always able to get new and fresh apples and vegetables everything looks so nice here's some apple butter grammy makes pickled beets and then pepper shooters that matthew makes so it's the next day now um i kind of set my camera down and completely forgot it and i was doing a whole bunch of stuff so it's the next day we just got done closing up the store trying to remember what we got done but it's just okay well what's that day's over so dad i thought i ended the video yesterday but i just set my camera down and i just left it never ended the video you must have two brain cells one got lost and the other went looking for it it's a little earlier today so i'm gonna show you what we're having for dinner but lauren hasn't made it yet so what do we got here chicken and then what's in this other pot onions garlic and orzel so lauren's making like chicken orzo right yes oh and i'm making cucumbers for tomorrow tomorrow's dinner because we're having a pork
