Live Q & A Chat with Jess

Do you do wholesale coffee? I’d love to offer your coffee in my farm stand! We are doing pretty good business and gets lots of traffic. I have my own herbal tea line but I don’t have coffee and would love to offer it to my customers!

When are these lives coming?!i missed it again😢

I always avoid sponsored links, even if it’s the company or place I’m looking for.

I just loaded 18 dozen bantam cochin, Millie Fluer D'Uccle, and seramas into my incubator. If you bring back chicks from East Tennessee, swing by and I'll add to it 😂😂

I learned recently that if you put -ai after your search, it will not use ai in the search.

I'm not getting notified when you go live. I'm subscribed to all. Just wondering if I need to do something else. Thanks!

Honestly I feel bad that Miah still hasn't got a work shop? If that's what's still happening? Dang it's been alot of years now. Just wow.

Eucalyptus chips make great chips for walkways. They don't break down easily.

Hi Jess! I'm catching the replay, enjoying the chat.

❤ This was Absolutely Fabulous ,enjoyed this immensely, great random topic's ❤

Roger's Hood parasite cleanse i amazing! I saw Sage and Stones parasite video too. My son and I are gonna do that same thing in a couple weeks. We have some travel plans, so we need to wait for a weekend when we are both home to do it at the same time.

Lol I had a speech prof in college 20 years ago that would throw paper balls at you while presenting for using fillers like um and ah. Didn’t hurt and definitely made you aware of it. I still think of it sometimes and it makes me smile.

EVERYBODY ALWAYS CLICK LIKE ON ALL JESS'S VIDEOS

OMG YOU ARE COMING TO SCOTLAND! fangirl scream please can you tell us when so I can come and meet you?

I live in 6 B and I had beautiful roses first couple year but didn’t winter over the third.

Around 31 minutes regarding sourdough starter, Whispering Willow Farms also sells sourdough starter online.

Love your authentic content and connection. Never change to be a slave to the algorithm, that's not why we follow you. Love your silver hair! Suits you!

Wayfair is the placed to look. We looked everywhere for patio furniture to no avail. My husband went to the Wayfair store up near Chicago and found exactly what we wanted and it was a lot less expensive than anything we had looked at around here.

I personally wouldn’t mind hear you promote more sponsors. I love all of your content.

I would like to see how you process your produce from the garden, maintain and store it. I would also like to see how you use your produce! I love your recipies!

I love doing what I’ve done. I want to create better content. I try to be supportive and only watch real people! I would love to make a living doing my garden or even making content. What is the best track to that in your opinion?

I am searching very differently now. 😮mind boggling for sure!!

My sisters, 2 of our husbands and I are going to Scotland in August!we have Scottish, Irish and English heritage and are so excited for this trip!

Would your kids ever be open to being podcast guests to have their POV of growing up with Roots and Refuge? I really enjoyed the interviews you did with them a few years ago.

“I like them!” 😂Yes, Jess, I like them too. 😁 You and your family are well worth my time and attention. What you offer is highly valuable and I genuinely appreciate your content in whatever you put your hand to create.

I started gardening in 5 gallon buckets and Rubbermaid totes because they were free or almost free at Yard sales. I finally bought 2 metal Vegega beds and 2 Green Stalks but am still using the Rubbermaid totes. I will garden in almost anything that will hold soil. I just love gardening and love your videos. You have taught me a lot. Thanks

Honey, I'm 62. Take a walk in my shoes and see how much the world has changed. I grew up with black and white TV! No joke! We finally got a color set when I was in High School, and there were no remote controls then. That's right. The youngest kid changed the channels for all of the adults. I think that may have been to get us to go and play in the other room.

You look so beautiful in this video. You should have Miah take you out somewhere romantic!

I am hoping to start my channel soon. I think it is going to be about me gardening as a disabled person, to show others who are physically challenged that maybe this isn't out of their reach! What do you think?

You give information in such a relatable way and that is so easy to listen to. I enjoy how you encourage everyone to go out there and just do something!

Talking about peacocks always makes me think of the Detroit Zoo. The zoo backs up to a residential area. The peacocks fly over the fence and hang out on the road between the zoo and the houses. They do go back to their home at the zoo, though.

Welcome to the Curmudgeon Club! We're still good natured 95 percent of the time.

I didn't get any commercials.

I love you and your family for exactly the content you share with us! Authenticity is something that is sorely lacking in today’s world!

Hi Jess I only able to do the recording a day later. Yesterday I wasn't feeling well re jumping ant bite. Very painful and started to develope a reaction so I have to take antihistamine which knock me out. So if you go to Scottland hope you will go to Edinburgh and go the the "Royal Miles" and find a pub which you have to go down the stairs and enjoy a serving of Haggis with some dark beer. You haven't lived until you try this. Now I am going back to the video. Might come back later.😊

Watching the replay here...can you please share the name of the channel/website for the tallow & soap product? Rambling Rose something?

How cool!!! I have always wanted to go to Scotland. My curriculum is a hodgepodge too. It's how I like it.

Please send me all of your hard evidence aka books that you use for herbal nutrition, gardening, etc. My heart breaks because I know the internet is not a good space for valuable, truthful, or trustworthy information! Give me all the uneditable and reliable resources. I adore you and your videos.

Love you Jess, being you, natural, honest….🇬🇧thank you 💞

@RootsandRefugeFarm I couldn't find the original question about the 4a roses. However, in 4a roses are hard to grow as it is. Many will not winter over. You need more heritage varieties to even make it. In a container, it would never work.

You can grow hybrids and such if you wrap them with burlap and really shelter them. If the original commenter is interested in knowing which roses work, look up East River Nursery Huron, SD. They have a list of hardy varieties.

Thank you for making good content videos and skipping the drama!! I love your gardens and the homestead you are creating. Thanks for being willing to open up and bring us along for the ride!

Just the other day I was wondering if you’d ever consider publishing a book of your poetry…or in some form, doesn’t have to be a book. I really love it when you read it aloud like at the start of Episode 5 of Wilder Still, (about Grey days.)

I LOVED Scotland!!!!! Can't explain it but so beautiful and filling!

Have tried for a yr to create and am still struggling to offer Info that will be of value… have been inspired by you for years.. value authenticity.. so wish the AI sadness would go away…thanks for being you!

Love the color that your hair is growing out to! Looking so pretty today

FYI, I never get any ads when I watch your episodes. At least I don’t from my Amazon echo device. 😊

There are rose fertilizers that include fungicides that should NOT be used where food is grown. BioAdvanced 3in1 is one example.

I think my favourite pottery piece of yours is a certain hand painted mug that Miah gifted to you years ago. It has a cattle panel trellis and Bear and a sunflower…it’s so “you” and was such a thoughtful gift.
