August 2021 Vegetable Garden Tour : Part 1
Welcome to Part I of the August Vegetable Garden tour of my Zone 6, Ohio garden.
I am growing in Zone 6a, mid-western Ohio, and focus on growing things I love to eat (vegetables, fruits & herbs), with flowers thrown in primarily for the pollinators & beneficial insects.
Today I share what is growing, being harvested and some pest & critter challenges happening in August at the first of my garden locations. Be sure to subscribe so that you don’t miss the August Vegetable Garden Part II– which will highlight my 2nd location!

Wow! You have one of the most tidy, beautiful and healthy gardens!! Such an inspiration! I have to be honest that I find myself being a tad bit jealous sometimes when I see some of the healthy northern gardens. I’m in the south, but not quite southern enough for some crops. But I repent, and use your garden as the inspiration that it is😊. Btw, those zinnias that were a deep peach color were absolutely stunning! I must get my hands on those. Peach and orange flowers are my favorite 😍!!
wow,amazing love it…nice sharing
Awesome garden
All I can say is a big WOW!! Had no idea you had such a big garden area. Inside and outside the garden fence. And also you never told us your thumb is so GREEN! Great drone shots too! This video is so good and the entire area is fantastic and beautiful! I’m going to watch again, and maybe even again and again! Great job! (Oh, and didn’t see a weed growing either)
Wow a creative way to have grapes growing in
Searched online can’t find "red desire" tomato seeds?
Do you have a reference where we can source the varieties you are growing?
Thanks!
I am pretty sure that “the alignment of the planets” has nothing to do with the taste of your tomatoes.
Thanks for showing and great music at the closing down.
Thank you Jenna ❤️God bless you my dear pretty lady
Very nice! Jealous of all those tomatoes! I’ve had some nice cherry tomatoes in the 4 hr part of the garden and a few early girl there as well. The sunnier part (8hrs) has that sweet 100 at about 8 ft and only now starting to ripen. Got first mini melon a week ago on August 12th. Seriously, try the Minnesota Midget Melon. 4 ft vines. 10 softball sized melons per plant and very quick times for short season growers like us. My only problem is that I lose a couple plants to rotting at the roots from rain in May and then I have a ton of very ripe fruit to give away in August. One year I harvested 30 melons in 3 days after only 75 days. Very sweet and delicious tho, so nobody refused them. Top comment was , "Adorable" . 🙂
What an absolutely gorgeous garden. I am green, green, green with envy.
You have your own personal piece of paradise! You have done an amazing job to your property! Thank you for sharing!
Hey
Love yer videos. I live in WV 6b and was wondering where do you buy your seeds. I’ve been buying all over the place and need to focus. Or do you like the randomness buying?
I value yer input.
Thanks
Nice 👍 lots of love from pakistan. Please support me also.
Do you remember where you got your Big Top Marigold seeds?
Loving these videos Jenna!!
Okra. First year I have grown it-not a big fan. I’m a Texan so yeah, grew up with ‘Fried Okra, boiled Okra, Pickled Okra’….Meh. So, I discovered by-self, if you wait too long to pick, they become indebible so I will plant the seeds next year and see. That said, I also discovered I *like* them Raw myself, fact, just ate one raw before watching this video. For those who do not know [[like Self discovered]] Okra pods grow around the center stalk at the top-I was waiting for them to hanng down like Beans or Tomatoes and accidentally discovered the formed 7" long ones under the top leaves.
I love the “you are here” notes, so helpful 👍🏾
That’s a pretty big garden for one person to stay on top of. I admire your dedication.
Oh you are so right. I snack on the okra so much that I never have enough to take inside. Lol.
Bravo 👏 Jenna!!! You’re garden is a wonderful sanctuary. I felt like I was there. The tour was inspiring to me. It seems you have fantastic soil health. Also congrats 🎉🎊 for more subs. It shows you have excellent content.
The vegetable garden is so beautiful
Try Matt’s wild cherry tomatoes, small but tasty, wild typed
I live in Northern Ohio and caught a Tomato worm on my Jalapeno plant this year. I have grown them for a few years and this is the first time I’ve seen one on them. I had no idea they attacked peppers too until now!
Jenna please help I also have the gorge the ones use as sponge ( Lufu, can’t remember the spelling ) .
I do remember on one of your many videos you talked about harvest and have to put in oven and bake to get the skin off to empty seeds .
Question ❓ Which video was the arch cattle panels Lucas on please.
This is the first video I’ve seen of your channel ❤️ You have a very interesting and eclectic array of tomatoes. I’m gonna go look up more videos and possibly subscribe 😁
Amazing Huge Respect from India 🙏🌻
Put your okra in a dehydrator. Add a little salt. Really great snack.
Stay safe young lady.im new friend from the philippines.Godbless.
Hello, I’m in Ohio also Lucas county!
😍😍😍🙌😍😍😍
Beautiful garden! What is the spelling of the two Hungarian tomato varieties you mentioned that are similar to Early Girl?
Beautiful Garden!
image of your vegetable garden is lush
Amazing and beautiful garden ..
i love fresh okra! I, too, just eat it off the plant while in the garden….in NC…..so, yes, in the south. I’ve never coated it and fried it…..just a very light stir fry w olive oil. YUM.
Beautiful tour 🙌🌱🌸zinnias for the win I’m growing a bunch of the queen lime orange and other variety’s this year.
YouTube recommended this video. I’m so glad I found your channel. I just subscribed and am looking forward to part 2. I’m in zone 10 but my garden is facing north and gets maximum 5-6 hours of sun. Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge. I learned so much. Keep up the great work. I loved the garden map when you moved through your plot and the “You Are Here” really helped me to see how to plan my garden beds better with cover crops and companion plants for next season. Thank you!
This just popped up on my feed and it’s exactly what I’m looking to do once I’ve moved out of my current apartment and into my new place! Your channel has been helpful already and I’ve only just viewed this one video, so I’m subscribing to keep track of what you’re doing, and to hopefully learn much more. 🙂
Glad to have found you with the same growing zone. We have so much to learn as new farm property owners. We might be neighbors 😂
Your garden is so beautiful! always look crazy! you are pretty too! all are beautiful !
Wow That this good farm 👍
I just discovered your channel and all the great information you share! I learned that I should buy everbearing strawberries so I can eat them in the first year! I didn’t know you should take the flowers of until August then let them make fruit, awesome 👍 My jaw dropped at your grapes in hanging baskets! I’ve never seen that and it’s so cool. 😄
What do you do with castor beans, Heisenberg? Lol
Hi watching here:from our vlog
I like how you show where you are.
What a spectacular garden!
I love your garden. What type of okra are you growing? They doing well in your zone and the okra is huge.I live in zone 8b, I grew okra but never get any fruit and the cold weather come.
Im in Colorado and there is a company called fast growing trees that sell a cold hardy fig!
Your garden is beautiful and your tomatoes are so big 😎 like a big tree
Your presentation skills are very professional yet personal, why don’t you have your own show? and I wish I had a fraction of your knowledge.
