  1. Hello,

    I have been watching your videos for a few years. Your beautiful property is amazing. I also love nature and love being out in my garden. Thank you for sharing your life and creative ideas. This may sound weird but your voice is very relaxing to listen to.

    See you again in your videos,

  3. Dear Collette,

    In response to your video on Sunday, March 2nd: Your garden will grow back sooner than you realise!
    I can say this because I am a 5th and 6th generation “Conch” from Key West, Florida.
    Having gleaned hurricane wisdom from my ancestors all of my life and going through the seasons year after year with and without hurricanes, I truly understand the different emotions that you are feeling.
    And it’s normal to feel what you are feeling.
    I see that you’re already seeing the bright side: 1. The work will get done. 2. It will be prioritized. 3. Use this as an opportunity to be creative with new ideas. 4. The garden benefits from the open spaces that have occurred. 5. Storms are nature’s way of cleaning out native habitats. 6. Use the chance to add native species to your garden such as rare hardwood trees and shrubs that attract wild life. 7. In the meantime, plant lots of new bulbs, perennials and annuals to take advantage of more sunlight and cheer everyone up.
    8. Look around for local volunteer groups that will clean each others gardens and provide support for the more difficult jobs.
    You don’t have to know how to do everything, but offer your services in other ways such as providing food and drinks, raking leaves, operating a chipper/spreader, providing extra tools, plants, mulch, etc.
    And last, but not least, enjoy the journey and the garden as it heals and becomes a better garden than before!

    Sincerely,
    Susan Casamento

  4. 💗Buy. Me a ☕️ coffee. 🤭🫣⭐️ 🪅I love your videos.I purchased your book & a sticker about planting trees, for my birthday in January.I have yet to read it. When I can I will buy you a coffee & order another book. It has been a very Tumultuous 10 years, with ‘ the mango Mussolini’ in the news in a wildly unpredictable manner. 💙🌀Your videos and your voice are very soothing.I tried chi tea yesterday. Maybe tea instead of coffee to drink in your secret , beautiful garden.🪴 🧚🏼‍♀️

  6. I would love to buy you a coffee but I only have my phone which I use for everything so I cant access it. Is there any other way to do it?
