    Tie a rope to your bucket and you don’t have to climb down the ladder. Just throw it in and pull it up. Just works the upper body and hand-eye coordination.

    @robmelnoahzane Thanks Rob! You’ve inspired me with your sauerkraut; I will be anxious to see how that turns out. I anticipate having extra cabbage this fall and this would be a great way to preserve it! – Mark

    Mark, you produce wonderful videos. Thanks for sharing them with us. As always I look forward to the next one.

    Pretty innovative using the stream for your water source. No chemicals and very good for the crops. Plus it keeps the boys working. This is quite the project Mark. I gotta say I’m enjoying the videos. :)

    @stymye Brrrr, zone 6b :) Of course, I will be jealous of your zone 6b come August in Georgia!

    @tamildeztiny Yes, I realize I am very blessed with this property. I have been looking for it for many years now! It is great to finally have some room to grow all the things I have wanted to grow!

    @webcajun Thanks Donald! I have to admit, it would be super cool to have you as a neighbor! But of course, I would always be over at your house talking gardening and my wife may start to miss me! :)

    looking good ! and you have planned it well..look forward to updates..my veges won’t go in till this next week ..I’m in zone 6b.. I might shoot a vid also

    Outstanding video Mark. Using your finger to plant the seeds, we’ll have to make you a member of the “keep it simple” team. LOL Wish we were neighbors cause we would get along great. If you keep them watered you should see them pop out the ground in about a week………. Donald

    i wish i own a property with a rive runing in the middle!!

  14. markhess says:

    @tamildeztiny if it is on your property it is; I own the property on both sides of the stream

  15. markhess says:

    @mywootgarden that is my plan as soon as I get electricity (in about 2 weeks) at the warm. Two strong boys can only carry so much water after all!! :)

  16. markhess says:

    @benobst when I finally get electricity (within next 2 weeks), I will get an electric pump and use it to pump water versus my two “strong” boys

  17. markhess says:

    @ELHIEGER1 :) yes, my kids are super paranoid about this!!

  18. markhess says:

    @ojibway3 Thanks Paul! Yes, I am a little more south than Ma! I am 20 minutes south of the Atlanta airport in zone 7b. Of course, in August, I will probably be ready to change locations with you!! :)

  19. tamildeztiny says:

    is this illegal to get water from streams??

  20. mywootgarden says:

    you should get a pump..”sub pump”? idk.. …or dig out large holes line with horse troffs and surround with tarp thingys…lolerskates!
    thanks for insparation of hills wooters

  21. benobst says:

    How on earth do you intend to water all of those plants??

  22. MadBadVoodo says:

    Thumbs Up!!

  23. ELHIEGER1 says:

    watch out for water moccasins! ;->
