Arrival in Bradenton: Initial assessment of the damage in the neighborhood Backyard tour: Surveying the fallen trees, scattered branches, and roof shingles Detailed inspection: Close-up examination of the damage, including any broken windows or missing shingles Relief and gratitude: Expressing joy over the minimal damage to the house and garden Cleanup efforts: Showcasing the process of removing debris and securing loose branches Garden assessment: Checking on the health of plants and trees, providing tips for post-hurricane care Reflection on the experience: Sharing thoughts on resilience, the power of nature, and the importance of preparedness Despite the challenges posed by Hurricane Milton, my backyard remained relatively unscathed.

So what to do? I'm going to try growing anything I can get away with from zones 9 and maybe 10! Might be getting some guava, papaya, and even mango’s to try to get them to grow and thrive in our little food forest. I have watched days to weeks worth of YouTube videos on Back to Eden Gardening, wood chip gardening, permaculture, planting guilds and many other styles of gardening. I’m doing my own thing but still following what I’ve learned from all of these great youtube teachers, as well as grow a regenerative and organic garden. But seriously, a big thank you to all the creators I’ve been watching that have been outstanding at teaching me. I can only hope my videos continue to assist others and show that anyone with the willingness to try this, you can do it too! Clicking on these links is part of the amazon associates program.
