FULL TOUR of the STUNNING Foxtail Farm on Whidbey Island
Foxtail Farm is a 10-acre mixed vegetable and cut flower production located on Whidbey Island in Washington. Walk with Jonathan as Stephen Williams shares how he and his wife built this functioning farm from scratch over the last 6 years.
Some of the highlights you'll see are how Stephen:
• Uses 8 retrofitted Caterpillar Tunnels to create 2,000 sq. feet of premium growing space.
• Built a passive-solar-heated nursery inside a Caterpillar Tunnel to start his seedlings in the cool, wet winter months.
• Trellises 4 rows of tomatoes with the Qlipr System inside a Caterpillar Tunnel.
• Cracked the code on growing North Carolina sweet potatoes in the cooler Pacific Northwest climate.

I still love this video after all this year ❤ I kinda think to use Heartbeat and Never Give Up as my wedding backsound, thanks to the editor of this video 💯
Amazing! We are north of the 53rd so our growing season is much the same. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. ❤️🇨🇦
Great job brother
This series is so inspiring. Someday I was to be a successful flower farmer! <3
Very nice🙏
Do you ship to the UK ?
Thanks for the nice video and allowing us into the lives of this couple for a few minutes. Keep on growing !!!
I want to join your agricultural farm
Yeah thats pretty nice. New inspration!
We've visited Evan and Heidi's farm a few years ago, very inspiring. The hills are MUCH steeper than they look in video, its definitely a work out just walking up the hills
This makes my day, my week. I'm a widow now but a few years ago my husband and I watched and watched the FF tunnel videos, dreaming of growing flowers in western WA and having a small flower business. I can't do that now by myself but grow some dahlias and now starting with sunflowers --- so still grow something. Your videos like this one can make me tear up a bit but in the long run they make me very happy. Keep up the good work. Oh...and I have your silage tarps too and they are a wonder!
மிக அருமையாக உள்ளது❤
No till you said you run that mulched machine over the compost pile .very clean rows my friend
How is it there’s nothing on the side in the one hoop we’re only tomatoes weed mat,
Can anyone send me a link to the florist tool belt this woman is using?
I am looking for good seeds at good prices. Any suggestions?
Nice farm
That's what I am looking for bro thanks
Glad I found your channel. I live in Warren County, hope to start a place where folks can come and gather food I grow. I have room, just not time just yet, but I am beginning small because of my work schedule. But it is going to be great. for community and us here. Thank you
Hi guys, some good job you guys are doing. Farm is beautiful. Are u able to advice what sprinkler heads/colour you guys are using and where to buy them.
Thank god for the Video❤
Thankyou Farmer Friends Team, keep inspiring ❤️
In long period, this sleep schedule cant work so... just dont. Dont lie. We know that farming is a hard work.
YHWH’s Blessings be to you and your families!
I love to here the success sorties . I am looking to develop my farm like you.
UM. UM. UM.
Got a good job in town or up to their ears in debt. Or both.
Very beautiful and inspiring! I watch your video to inspire and encourage me when I feel discouraged and tired gardening. I live in Colorado Springs which makes gardening very challenging due to our labile weather. But I can do all things through CHRIST who strengthens me. GOD bless you and your beautiful and blessed family.
you guys are my hero's! I grew up milking in hyde park...your making me tear up! Super important we protect these farms!
Can you put the sides up 100%? Like during a hurricane or tropical storm threat. Rather lose the harvest than the tunnel and the harvest.
Beautiful Farm
You guys are amazing! ❤
I live a ferry ride away from this farm, would love to visit them soon!
This guy is freaking Awesome! So mello down to earth. Beautifully landscaped property I Loved This Episode!! :)
Helpful for farmers and me. Support you 👍
I'm interested, this is what I have been looking for
Most intuitive product videos from talking at NOT fast pace to understand for non-english native speaking customers and show and tell. I am not a farmer but your instructions and products make me want a be. I soon be calling my retirement at my hill country ranch and i already including your products in my to build plan. Thank you for keep up the great products and intuitive videos.
great video hope i can afford to buy 2 or 3 of these tunnels from 75' to 100' long this year. How long would you estimate it to take a husband and wife team to build a 100' long haven high tunnel?
start construction with your first wife, and if things go bad complete it during your second marriage
Love it! very neat and organised farm.
Beautiful farm.
Another great video!
Epic!!
God bless you and israel👍🥰🇮🇱
wow the two people harvesting lettuce seem great and cool!
I truly enjoy your channel, and the farm tours are so informative and relaxing. Thank you for sharing the hard work all these farms do for their communities.
So glad I subscribe to this channel, amazing stuff
Thank you. That was an amazing video. Beautiful Farm
