Love this video you never disappoint soup looked sooo good
Yew is also good alternative to box and you can cut into the old wood,grows slowly and you can get few colours 😊
Thank you for the cooking lesson you are amazing
Ilex crenata is a great replacement for Box although I have replaced my Box with Yew which is very hardy.I would leave enough space behind the greenhouse so you can easily assemble scaffolding in case the wall needs repair. Thanks for the video
I wish you would show enjoying the chateau- enjoying the spaces you’ve created- who are the guest you have guest rooms for? Who comes to dinner? What are the spots in your town ?
Your soup looks so good! It’s much appreciated after a garden workout I’m sure 🤭 Enjoy!
Japanese holly is the way to go. Not impervious to disease but certainly much easier to keep healthy. Mine are doing great – despite the high humidity of New Orleans.

Your onion soup looks delicious.
Didn’t realize you had that useful run in shed in the walled garden. Really cool. Also that soup made me so hungry.
Your imbedded commercials are the only ones I will watch through, very entertaining. Also thank you so much for the Onion Soup tutorial, I have never made it before but enjoyed it very much while staying in France. With your recipe in hand, now is the time to give it a try. Best to all of you from Central California.
Wow, the soup looks fantastic! We live in Longview, Wash., about 50 miles inland on the Columbia RIver. I've noticed that our climate must be about the same as yours judging by what's growing both places.
Onion soup your meant to use proper French onion soup onions

This property is magnificent ❤
I just thought, would you put a pool in the walled garden?? Your stone garden shelter looks would make the most incredible pool house/patio!!
Your garden slates inspired me! I’m sure you’ve shown them before. There’s a beautiful but derelict old home down the road from me in the 1850s Goldrush region of Victoria, Australia which is now full of bush and little old ghost towns. It was being subdivided and tidied up, thankfully to be restored but when the builders took off the old verandah and rusted roof tin, some remnants of the original 1850s slate roof tiles fell to the ground and were just left there! I saw them in the dirt when I went exploring. I left them for a while thinking whoever owned the house would keep them as part of the house’s history but they didn’t and the slates started to get left in the mud and rain for months to be degraded. So I snuck over there one afternoon and got mud ALL over all of my clothes and car, just to save those little bits of history! They’re now in my big shed, waiting for my food garden to be designed and built and they’ll live on in my home as beautiful, reusable, slate herb and veggie garden. I’m so excited and it’s nice to save a little bit of local history that way, some that otherwise would have disappeared and been forgotten forever!
That soup looks delicious!
Wow that soup looked delicious ❤
Now I want some French onion soup, it looks soooo yummy. Lincoln is a hoot.
Pretty pansies!!!
Y U M
Mmmm, onion soup! As a young student, that was what I could afford to eat. A long time ago.

Your soup looked wonderful!
Oh thank the gods. I needed a diversion from all the absolute BS going on over here. Yikes!
You could use lavender as an alternative but holly will do. Look for a dwarf variety, maybe?
You might want to get some blue bird houses?
And hate to tell you this but pansies like cold weather. Plant then in the fall and they will bloom all winter, or until it gets hot. They will even bloom in the snow :).

Yum!
Pleeeeeeese start another channel for cooking or add some more food/cooking content in this channel. You’re extremely talented and I love your gardening as well! The pansies are delightful. Have a wonderful evening
Former super model? I didn’t realize Lincoln had retired! 😊
The garden bothy (?) is looking good. I hope Shadow is using that little house and enjoying the garden view.
❤
That soup!!🤤❤ And I never knew donkeys could be so cute! Love your videos. 🥰
Hi , just looked up Japanese holly and it says it’s very toxic to dogs and cats!
Soup looks delicious! Got to try that! I’m here for all the garden content you throw at us! Especially the new greenhouse! ❤😊
Spring is around the corner? Where? lol That soup was torture. Yum!
Ilex crenata should do well for you. They look really nice. We ruined some because we let them get too dry in our clay soil. If you baby them a bit for the first year you ought to be fine.
Oh Amanda, I have the flu and do I wish you could magically send tour delicious onion soup to me. You video and edit your videos better than any professional TV production company. Love your cooking spots and happy to see you in your garden again. ❤
You will love having the riding mower. We had 40 acres in Michigan, and at first, the part my husband and kids mowed was with the tractor and mower deck. Then he got a used riding lawn mower and what a difference and how much easier to handle!!!
Oh Lincoln! So glad you are keeping up with your beauty routine! Amanda you are hysterical❤️
Im jealous of your growing season. ❤
Yummo!
Un grand bravo pour cette soupe à l'oignon qui a l'air absolument divine ! Ici, en France, c'est une véritable tradition. Elle est signe de convivialité et se partage entre amis le soir après une journée de fête (noël, mariage, etc.). Parfaite pour montrer à famille et amis qu'on les apprécie et que l'on aimerait les garder un petit peu plus longtemps avec nous !
Merci pour vos vidéos délicieuses (elles aussi !)
Amanda, please reconsider where you plan to place your greenhouse. I think you'll be happier if you place it 4 meters away from the wall. You'll need one meter to plant your fruit trees, two meters to run your riding lawn mower between the trees and one meter for your cold frame behind the hot house. Also, I'm not sure you're going to be happy with a poured foundation. Try a poured permitter foundation and digging down 6 inches and filling the center with gravel. Good luck, DA
Good idea for the ride on, I use a mulcher attachment as otherwise I'd be emptying the box every 2 minutes! I'd definitely recommend that if you don't have one. It works really well for our orchard, potager and lawned areas. it takes me about 4 hours to mow the lot but it's a large area.
The onion soup…looks good. And I love your garden room inside your walled garden. And thanks for the visit to the garden center. Today in southern Illinois its snowing and then sleet! I'm staying inside!
😊😂😂😂😋😋😋
The soup looked so good! I’m going to try to make it one of these days 😋
Impt – a heads up. I just caught this in my news feed:
<<< The root of the issue lies in the requirement to confirm eligibility for receiving benefits. If you reside abroad and collect Social Security, you are required to submit a Foreign Enforcement Questionnaire (FEQ) every one or two years, depending on your location. This document is crucial as it updates or confirms essential information such as your name, address, and Social Security number. Failure to return this form by the due date can result in the suspension of your benefits.>>>
👏🏻
I've a ride on tailer….you 100% correct its a game changer
Great video, love the peppy music for soup prep. Thank you for not making me watch you slice 3 lbs of onions! J
