I want to thank BetterHelp for sponsoring today's video! I have been seeing my therapist for over a month now and it has been amazing benefit in my life. You can get 10% OFF of your first month with a licensed therapist through my affiliate link: https://betterhelp.com/AcreHomestead
I'm in my mid-twenties, and my dreams are basically that of a homestead wife living her best life raising her family and dogs and chickens with the best quality of life. I love that you inspire me to garden, to cook food from scratch, to spend time with my family because it gives me purpose. You made me appreciate what it means to go grocery shopping with my mom and I learned to cherish those moments before they disappear. I'm so happy I found your channel 3 years ago when I was watching you make lasagna noodles from scratch. I've been watching your videos ever since and I iust wanted to let you know how much of an inspiration you are Becky! ☺️
This one is no longer working. MI Gardener | Use code ACRE for 10% OFF. Thought I would let you know. I love watching your channel and never miss even one. I've decided to start my own garden this year and it has been rough already.
Hey, Becky! I love your videos but betterhelp is…not a great service to use. They sell your data that should be protected by HIPAA (look up the FTC settlement they had to come to after violating HIPAA so extensively). Additionally a lot of therapists and such that they say are licensed do not seem to have the qualifications needed to actually provide meaningful support; I've had several friends have horrific experiences with their "counselors" and as much as I would love for therapy to be accessible to everyone, it's just not worth it with BH.
I'm glad that your experience has been positive, but…generally speaking, please do not use BH.
If it's one thing I have learned this past year as a newish gardner is to use landscape fabric in my raised beds that go unused over the winter. If I had done that this past winter, it would have saved me hours of weeding when getting our beds ready for the spring garden. Next year I will definitely make an effort to put my beds to sleep and use landscape fabric.
Garden Answer was mentioning that Snap Dragons are poisoning. The whole plant. Not sure if you have cats or dogs that get in your plants. You may look it up yourself. It’s just what I heard her say.
Becky, can you please tell us the vacuum sealer you purchased? I’m in need of one and I know you (or Josh) already did the research. Thanks so much Becky!
Your tomatoes just need some fertilizer Becky , give them a mild dose of fish emulsion ,some miracle grow liquid, or what ever you have on hand , no worries , they will perk up in no time.
Hey Becky. Did you know, that you can cook celery root slices like schnitzel/ breaded cutlet? It's delicious. Aside from that it's usually used with the other typical veggies in a broth, at least in Germany 😊Hearty, more earthy flavor then the celery stalks. Great taste. Thanks for taking us with you ❤
Want to take a second to commend you for talking about therapy I’m a nurse I work in a treatment center So many people are still so ashamed to all about mental health You are pretty amazing and Have so many talents but babies a husbands a home a family and friends plus work and to be on social media. All those blessings can be solved whelming God bless you!!!! I want to thank you because I stumbled on your videos it gave me the courage to cook and to try to garden and to learn new skills Thanks again for sharing your self with all of us
Luv u Becky! Your comments about your sponsor were truly heartfelt. I wish more people would do the same. Hugs to you. And bc of you I’m trying my first raised garden bed! I’m super excited. Thank you for being YOU!
You have SO much energy! I know I’m in my 70’s but what I’d give to be your age again, knowing what I know now! I’d give anything to have a helper with your energy and knowledge to help me! It makes me sad to know I can’t do what I used to be able to, but didn’t know to do it…..I’d have more veggies and herbs going…..Keep going! You’re such an inspiration!!!! ❤❤❤
In Poland (and I’m sure other countries too) celeriac, parsnips and carrots are base for every stock and soup (usually we just toss the celeriac and parsnips or make a vegetable salad with them)
Love your videos and watch each episode but lately Hated how many more commercials are in your videos lately. Makes me drift away and miss most of your videos now.
Hi Becky, just so you know. Just ordered 3 sets of strawberries from MI Gardener and tried to use your ACRE code for 10% off. Code would not be accepted at clout, so I called them. Man said they quit using that code and no longer honor it. Booooo! Figured you were not aware of this, so advising you. I hope my strawberries do well too. Hugs to you sweet lady.
We enjoy watching your videos at your house. We like watching you plant veggies in your garden and turn them into food to feed your family. I was surprised to see your sponsor today. Does this mean your content is going to change? I always assumed your goal was to share your ideas on how to grow a healthy garden and tasty food to feed your family and content based on homesteading? Taking on a sponsor like Better Help is kind of a strange way to go. I know you have to make money but this new sponsor makes me feel like your heading towards just doing this to make big bucks? Of course you deserve to make money from doing this everyday, just thought you would use sponsors to help us garden or cook. I'm glad your taking care of your mental health, that is very important, I was just surprised you went that route. Kind of worried that your content and goals are going to change. A bit bummed out to be honest. 🌼
Your garden is going to be so beautiful. I can't wait to see it all in bloom! Your hard work doesn't only add to the joy in your life–you share your joy! God bless!
Becky and others–please be careful about BetterHelp. I've heard from those who have used it that the therapists are often not great: one woman learned her therapist's entire family was in the room listening to her therapy session, for just one awful example. Another was a gay man who requested am LGBT-friendly counselor who got a "religious" one who shamed him–during therapy. None of the folks who were hurt were able to get their money refunded.
There are many horror stories around BH. Please do your due diligence, your own research, before paying for this service.
I know some folks will say it helped them. Good for you. I just know it has also harmed people, and when you aren't in the therapist's physical office, you have even less protection.
This info should be used as a springboard for those curious or considering–please don't use my comment here to start a fight on Becky's channel. You do you. I just want people to be safe. ❤
You should look into getting a flat wagon. They are metal and have a mesh on the bottom. Some have fold down sides. The plant flats fit great on them an you can load several on the wagon.
You are the third youtuber I watch that has mentioned betterhelp. I a. So glad that Americans are finally taking the stigma away from admitting that we all need someone to ask to about the street and anxiety in our very busy lives
Every time I see you with the wheel barrel I remember when mine used to tip all the time. I finally got a GORILLA CART. Made my outdoor life much easier.
So interesting! My tomato starts look like yours and I am not sure why??? I started them the same as I always have. I up potted them and put them in my greenhouse. There is evidence of some healthier growth starting. Hoping and praying from Ridgefield, Washington!

Thank you, Becky for sharing your experience and thoughts around therapy. That is so relatable. 🙂
Every time she says “snapdragon”, drink. That game could open her up to a whole new audience lol

Are your tomatoes getting enough calcium? I would plant them with a ton of egg shells? It is just a guess.
Girl, you are incredible.

Becky , your plants look way better than anything I’ve seen in a Nursery ! Great job 👏 ! I can’t wait to see the finished results 😘

Pah-tow-mick is the corrrect pronunciation of Potomac. Like the river.
❤
i dont like cooked zucchini or yellow squash so i chuckled when you said you would only grow 2 zucchinis this time!
You have SO much energy! I know I’m in my 70’s but what I’d give to be your age again, knowing what I know now! I’d give anything to have a helper with your energy and knowledge to help me! It makes me sad to know I can’t do what I used to be able to, but didn’t know to do it…..I’d have more veggies and herbs going…..Keep going! You’re such an inspiration!!!! ❤❤❤
Remember to rotate your crops…
Why are you not using your Gaiter to make such a haul❓🙄
My Snapdragons last for 2+ years! They bloom, bloom & bloom! If it were me, I would have left the S. in the beds where they were; “Let 💤💤 dogs lie!”
In Poland (and I’m sure other countries too) celeriac, parsnips and carrots are base for every stock and soup (usually we just toss the celeriac and parsnips or make a vegetable salad with them)
You will have a beautiful garden again this year ❤
I wish I had that much space for flowers. Can't wait to see all of it bloom. Thank you Becky. ❤
Love your videos and watch each episode but lately Hated how many more commercials are in your videos lately. Makes me drift away and miss most of your videos now.
And oh! My husband tells me I'm a "Becky Wanna be". I thought that was hilarious. We DO use many of your tips. You're the bestest Becky.
Hi Becky, just so you know. Just ordered 3 sets of strawberries from MI Gardener and tried to use your ACRE code for 10% off. Code would not be accepted at clout, so I called them. Man said they quit using that code and no longer honor it. Booooo!
Figured you were not aware of this, so advising you. I hope my strawberries do well too. Hugs to you sweet lady.
Tomatoes sucked for me this year too!
I think uncovering your beds for the growing season and covering them in the winter is an excellent idea 😊
I wanted to try thing you do but I know I'll never be able to follow you.
Great, motivating ❤❤❤❤❤.
your flower plants look amazing!!!

Snapdragons will reseed and come up everywhere. Suggestion: tomatoes and celery is most in taking care of.
Buying strawberries from MI gardener and code ACRE isn't working?… any suggestions? Thanks !! 💖
Hi Becky
I'm already looking forward to the beautyful flowers you've planted
🌺🏵️🌸
Your garden is going to be so beautiful. I can't wait to see it all in bloom! Your hard work doesn't only add to the joy in your life–you share your joy! God bless!
Do you get much use of your side by side for gardening? Seems like transporting supplies for planting would be much easier with it.

A Irish blessing upon you and yours May your thumb be ever green and may your heart be ever light.
When is your last frost date? We still have about 2 more weeks in Ohio before we can put stuff in the ground.
You should look into getting a flat wagon. They are metal and have a mesh on the bottom. Some have fold down sides. The plant flats fit great on them an you can load several on the wagon.
