Shoutout to all the farmers around the world to keep us fed!! 🎄

Charlie- you should create a channel where you travel through England and share the farm shops and interview the local farmers who support this. I think this would be super interesting to see and learn from.

Charlie thank you so much for talking about the plight of the farmers in Britain we are experiencing the same in the US. I learned a bit from watching Clarkson farm. I know this is a fashion blog but I really appreciate it when you all address other issues as well.

Josie and Charlie, I just wanted to thank you both for vlogmas this year…for some personal reasons, this Christmas just hasn’t felt the same to me, and this is my favorite time of year so it definitely feels like a loss. But having your daily vlogmas videos has been one of the few things that have made it feel a little more festive. Thank you for that 💕💕

I love that Charlie is so passionate about supporting British Made, Produced. We have been doing this for the last two years. Lets try and encourage more UK people to follow... Bless You Guys

I was a city girl (Toronto) met and fell in love with a farmer from Prince Edward Island Canada....and was on a huge learning curve for the ladt first 25 yrs of married life. Now, even though our children have taken over the business....he still loves getting out and into the tractors and getting the crop underway and harvesting when the time is right. Retirement doesn' t seem a goal... farming is in his blood.

Charlie cracks me up!! I love his honesty and sincerity. You just never know what he is going to say or what direction he will take you. But always interesting. Josie you looked the dream in that gorgeous green velvet dress😍 oh my!! Merry Christmas to you both🎄🤶🎁

Charlie I totally agree with you. Keep supporting the local farmers!!

Support the farmers … absolutely … but let’s remember that a good portion of the UK are struggling to heat their homes AND buy food (and do not have their own kitchen garden) … so buying from farmers markets / farm shops is not a reality for them. I would prefer a more grounded vlog series that shows how (and if) a couple can buy local farmers produce on a shoestring budget that is comparable to their regular supermarket shop. My weekly shop (Farmers market vs Lidl/Aldi). I also think this would show you both how hard it, thus giving you another perspective to think about!!

Charlie is right..we need to support farmers in this country 100%.

I love it when Charlie goes off piste and on random conversational tangents - and I love it even more when he sails close to the edge with slightly controversial comments - much more fun than playing too safe on vlogs. Genuinely interesting conversations and as a farmer’s daughter I totally agree with him on recent clueless agricultural policies from the Govt. Well said 😊🚜

Yeah guys farm shops are fine but not the holy grail. What they sell outside of the growing season is shipped in just like at any supermarket. And my humble grocery store actually sells Brussels sprouts on the stalk, imagine that! They're fun to grow, you should try.

do it Charlie!!!! we need some solid content about being present and aware of the real world!! cant wait

Idea: Josie do an advent calendar next year for Charlie.

Gosh I love the chats today! Charlie is wonderfully candid and the energy between you is so playful ❤

As an American, I really appreciate your support of your local farmers. I truly believe that this is so important for our own country’s future. I am planning a visit to England this summer, and the Cotswold is hopefully on our list. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

I don’t normally comment but it’s the likes of Hovis & Wharburtons that help to feed my children …. The cost of living crisis is real 😢 it’d be joyous if we could all afford to shop at the likes of Dalesford and farm shops !

Another beautiful vlogmas, dear Josie and Charlie! I totally understand Charlie's passion when he speaks about supporting growers of good healthy food, shopping locally grown food and I would love to see on your channel more about this topic! Thank you so much!❤

In an ideal world people would love to shop in posh farm shops but people don’t all have your shopping 🛒 budget

Merry Christmas Eve Eve Josie, Charlie, and all of the Josephine’s that are loyal to them! Yes I gave us a nickname! Now onto the wonderful vlogmas! ❤🎄❄️

I agree with Charlie. I have started to support my local shops and farmers thanks to you two. Hopefully more people start to in their countrys.

Hurray for you and Charlie for supporting British farms and farmers. We need to support our farmers here in the U.S. more too.

Bravo to Charlie for talking about the need to support local organic farmers and how vital it is for the environment, our health, the economy and the beauty of the landscape! I too am lucky enough to live in a state (in the USA) where we have many small organic and some biodynamic farmers. While I don't eat meat most of my friends do and I know that I can get grass-fed, organic beef and pork from the local dairy and chicken from another farm. I grow what I can in the summer and support my neighbors for the remainder of my food. Thanks for raising awareness! Blessings to you both and to the sausages!!!

You can't divorce living in the countryside and enjoying its benefits from talking about the realities of British farming. Yes, we all enjoy viewing the idyllic lifestyle but you have to keep it real, too. So thank you, Charlie, for bringing up this important topic. More please.

Oooo Charlie that is a big statement to make 85% of M&S food is not real food! Hope you have good stats to back that up!

Farmer’s are the unsung heros of the world. You two always have my vote for anything you’re doing. You’d make a great PM, Charlie, but life is too short, and it would keep you away from Josie, the boys and your home. You’re making a difference right where you are, doing all that you do. You two are precious. Lala looked beautiful in her stylish hat. It’s always lovely to see her in your Vlogs. ❤❤❤❤❤ I’d be fascinated to see more content on Agriculture in the Cotswolds, Farmer’s, Bakers, and how the countryside is managed. It would be a wonderful series.

I love it when Josie and Charlie go food shopping together, bringing back a bunch of food loot.

I’m with Charlie on what the Govt has done to British farmers

How much money was raised from the other day donating the adsense from vlogmas? Did I miss Josie announcing it?

I love the way Charlie gasped when he saw the pretty ornaments. La la looked so lovely.

I can get sprouts on the stalk at our local market and in supermarkets.

Love Charlie’s passion. Merry Christmas to both of you and Happy New Year 2024🎉

As if king charles would invite them to dinner 😂

Excellent gift idea to support local farmers! They get the raw (no pun intended) end of the deal. We wouldn’t be here without them! ❤️

And THANK YOU for the fire building tips! I recently did an Amazon haul and got all stocked up of the starting jenga pieces and starters! Thank you so much!

I love your channel and having Charlie pop in truly enhances it! Your banter is fun and adorable! And Charlie’s passion for supporting farmers,etc is fantastic….you both have such integrity. 💚🌈

Quality food is always expensive - but you get what you pay for - and if you can afford it - it’s always the way to go sadly not everyone can afford to

Yes we need to support farmers. My whole life has been surrounded by farming and we need support from all the uk 🇬🇧. Please shop local and support British food ❤.

So the tour and lunch of Highgrove is actually a building far away from the house and then you are ushered to the king's gift shop where they hawk their merch? Absolutely hilarious. 😅

Go back to Highgrove but book a garden tour next time. We had an amazing day and the guide was so knowledgable. She was quite candid too and was happy to share a lot of info. I have luckily worked with both Prince Harry and Wills. It is their Dads hone. Yes he is the King but its where he relaxes and potters about. Thats why it’s so special. It’s his love and dedication to organic gardening that sets the tone and its full of his unique spirit. Merry Christmas. Vlogmas has been great.

My mum always bought Christmas brussels this way - and carrots from our local farm shop - wonderful

We had our grandchildren at the allottments near our town and they were delighted to see brussells, pumpkins and all sorts growing. They were surprised and delighted and we got some lovely photographs. Some children never get to see vegetables growing naturally .

Charlie and Josie not everyone can afford the foods you purchased from the farm shops. Merry Christmas x

Its day 23 already and thank you for sharing your life ...and I am so in love with these cozy vlogs lovely presentation and cottages highly maintained

You must have shares I all these farm shops they are top price and some people can not afford there prices ❤

Your Majesty to a king or queen---Your Royal Highness when he was a prince

Charlie is correct, we all need to support our local farmers. Wish I could vote for Charlie. I like that he speaks his mind about important topics. Loved this blog - happy holidays, Hi from SC.

Merry Christmas! Yes you are so right for the tourism- you must maintain the stonewalls and hedgerows. I never tired of them while I as visiting the Cotswolds! Truly beautiful and your videos keep my Cotswolds vacation alive. Ps don’t discard you least favorite pottery ornaments you made- hang them in your greenhouse!

Since I discovered your channel this year, it is my first vlogmas with you. I have enjoyed the videos immensely , and look forward to more. Have a wonderful and Happy Christmas, and a blessed New Year's!

Only subscribed a few days ago and have absolutely fallen in love with your vlogs. Absolutely love the fact that you use mother natures beauty to decorate your beautiful home. Its such a treat to see. I'm also currently watching your move to the cotswold vlogs. Sooo gorgeous. Merry Christmas to you both and wishing much laughter, joy and love ❤

Dear Josie, your Vlogmas videos have brought so much holiday cheer to my life this year. We have family in hospital this Christmas and it’s hard to find the magic, but your videos have brought so much joy. Thank you for sharing your little corner of the world with all of us and Merry Christmas!

Josie & Charlie, Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year! Thank you for such a beautifully presented Vlogmas 2023! I don’t want it to end! I’ve looked forward to it ever since finding you during the pandemic many years ago. You and your family are such a blessing to us all. Your positivity, joy, grace, and philanthropic spirits are so wonderful to witness. I’ve told my three daughters and husband that we must make our first international trip to England and tour the Cotswolds that you’ve shared with such care and beauty. 🎄❤️🎉🎅🏻

Why do British farmers over-rely on employing migrant workers to pick all the crops?

I normally like your vlogs but really found the one from today very disappointing and totally condescending to people out there who are struggling both financially and mentally . Please don't forget and look down on people who just do the best they can . I'm a senior nurse in the NHS and believe me I'd love to shop in a farm shop but sadly cannot afford to . Plenty of your subscribers can't afford organic foods ,it's a case of getting through each day and surviving. Your vlogs normally make me feel good but today's only made me feel my best wasn't good enough . Please dont forget you are very privileged and I personally felt looked down on and to be honest rubbish . Also just because something is RSPCA approved does not mean it is either humane or any kinder ,less torturous for those poor animals .

Thank you so so much. Josie and Charlie for the Christmas vlogs. You have spread. So much joy. Thank you ❤❤

I’ve been healing from a health struggle and your vlogmas has helped me get through since I can’t do much these days. Thank you!

I love the passion you both have for healthy whole foods and supporting local shops and farmers ❤️

Goodness, that green dress is divine!💚🎄

LOVE a red sweater!!! Ohhhhh yummy! Lovely adventures ! So excited gif Christmas…. But I don’t want Vlogmas to end!😢 But happy you’ll get a break and your lovely honeymoon trip …. But I’m sad! Have loved it all!❤

5:00 omg your mother looks like Professor McGonagall 🤣🥰

A very merry Christmas to you, Charlie and all your family and friends and everybody watching!! ❤🎉

Love your passion and support for farmers, our government and across the world are slowly destroying our ability to produce our own wholesome food… They want us to eat GMO food. Growing up our garden was full of veg, the greenhouse was full of tomatoes, today’s gardens are all paved over and lined with artificial grass, what has happened to us….we need to go back to simple clean living.

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you both! I’ve been following you for about 5 years and I simply adore your videos, especially vlogmas and your wedding. Looking forward to 2024 as I’m sure you’ll have great videos in store for us!

C’est fallacieux d’ecrire que vous déjeunez avec le roi Charles 😢😢😢 . Ce ne n’est pas la première fois que vous mettez des titres de ce genre ...😢😢😢😢

How dare of King Charles not to serve you your lunch in his private dining room,doesn’t he know who you are ?😂😂😂😂

I really enjoyed listening to Charlie being passionate about British produce, raised ethically. Lovely that Josie didn't interrupt something that Charlie feels is so important. I have been on the makeup, skin care and food chemical free, purchasing selectively, for over thirty years. So its great to see younger people supporting ideals that will eventually save the ecosystems, heritage landscapes, and our oceans. Charlie is so thoughtful and it takes a lot of research to get this information, so I enjoyed his support of British and environmentally friendly farmers and those employed in this industry. How lucky to live in this area of the UK.

I love how passionate Charlie is! USA state of Virginia here and we feel the same about supporting our local farmers butchers and small businesses.

I love it when Charlie champions British farmers. So much damage being gotten away with by so called leaders who are controlled by higher authorities. It's definitely a crazy world. Keep speaking out as you are influential on this channel. We have the right to be informed. Eeh have a great Christmas. That's a lot of cheese guys. X

Well done to you & Charlie. I have enjoyed every Vlogmas this year.& looking forward to the next one.Happy Christmas, Josie, Charlie & the boys.LaLa.Have a wonderful time. HAPPY NEW YEAR.❤🎉

With Brexit thats still not completed properly and brought importing and exporting to its knees in British industry and manufacturing not just farming , so the knock on effect has arrived with lots of Industrial manufacturers in the uk have now had to relocate to other countries due to the exporting and importing back ups and high costs ,. it affected also the food industry and made it impossible to do business here , resulting in job looses and loss of revenue here destroying this country .Stupidly Brexit was voted for by a promise for more money for the NHS on a bus , which most of us knew was a Lie and never happened and this government can tell us any old clap trap with no come back , they should all be in prison as only back their mates large industries as they have been exposed time and time again !!! FOR an idea like Brexit to work all British industry we have lost, needed to be put back in place FIRST , so we could be an island again and support ourselves . Charlie loves the sound of his voice but at times needs to be careful with his process and look at this from more angles , and continue his education and research to get a more rounded picture than playing at the country life with the cotswold set who are stacked with money ,when its sheer hard graft and poverty striving at every level in farming , to be fair to him I think he does realise this . Nice romantic ideas with an all organic wholesome approach however the reality on the ground floor is this ,,, these farmers have to use pesticides/ not free range rearing to produce a big enough yield to get a decent pay out just to keep their heads above water . Farming on the organic cotswold level is a luxury only reserved for the elite very wealthy farmers . What would interest me more would be researching into how people could organically eat / farm / shop on a budget , as out of the cotswolds we have an iconic downturn in the rest of the uk away from Daylesford and Bamford where horror of horror people are having to shop in Lidyl and buy chemical pumped chickens as thats all they can afford !!! Tim Spectre forgot one thing ... yeast is a major cause of inflammation and disease in the body .. this paper wont come out from being published but has been written by a biochemist I know , as again all boils down to money .... the mass bakers and brewers would sue !!

Next year so you both can participate with the advent calendar, one of you could take odd numbers and the other even numbers. That way you can each buy for one another and join in the fun together! Merry Christmas to you. ✝️💖🎄

I really love the farming and food info!! I have a lot Of friends into permaculture etc…it’s a big deal where I’m from too! So I love it 💕

First off I love that green dress on you Josie!!!🥰🥰Also, your Mom looked stunning. You and Charlie's banter had me in giggles today🤣😂And finally YES I would vote for Charlie for PM but thankfully he wouldn't choose that life. I think you both are doing wonderful advocating for many useful things just on your platform!! Well done❤

We defo need someone genuine for PM. I’d vote Charlie 🙌🏻 I love that you talk about real, important stuff. Thanks guys ♥️

I want to suggest that if the small couch in your bedroom doesn’t sell then you could put it inside Strawtop 2.

We have bought our turkey and beef this Christmas from our local farm shop Bellis Brothers! We should all support our local farmers xx

Just providing a hopefully helpful design tip. The bedroom layout is a bit off and not a functional camera positioning. There is a daybed chaise at the foot of the bed that is not working well, it is not in scale with the headboard or height of the bed and crowds the depth of the room. It’s otherwise a nice furnishing piece in a lovely velvet fabric but needs to be correctly placed elsewhere.

Wow The Cheese room would totally be my place to be 😍 And all the organic Vegetables. So delicious looking !

I truly can't believe it is Vlogmas Day 23!! 🌲🌲 9:30 the veg presentation 😍

Totally agree with charlie! I live in a village and have a local co op. Have farm land all around us. I think we should have local farm shop for local veg etc in stores. This would help the environment and farmers too. I'm half American and they do this all the time. This is something we need to do is promote British brands for a better economy. Merry Christmas to you both.

Charlie, you are so right about supporting your own country's farmers!

Go Chaz #2 😂 love a Charlie rant.. Great vlogmas

Bravo Charlie !! Yes ! A series, or spot lights at least. I'm here in New England and we have a bit more local support for our farmers and even the chain grocery shops support and buy from the local farmers! Organic is widely available and has become far more affordable. Not everyone is keen on organic and it's benefits, my step daughter, who is a dairy farmer , thinks organic is foolish! (??) I support local 95%, I would be upset to forgo my organic British cheese and marmalade !! Josie, marmalade is excellent in mac and cheese...with rigatoni of course! Love to you both and Merry Christmas!

Super super roll on supporting Farmers, lands and country. Eco news on importance very relevant for everywhere. I’m across the pond but not much more is so important. I hope this slant brings you much success. Charlie was chatting about story lines for a Cotswold movie but you could be your own mini series. Add some cliff hangers and repeating characters with stories to follow. You two could do it!❤️🇨🇦❤️

A very Royal Vlog darling.❤ Loved the look of that cheese shop. We have some delicious Cornish cheeses in our local store. Love supporting local businesses. Thank you Josie for giving us lots of festive joy and a delight …as you are. ❤

Charlie making a party political broadcast against the Conservative Party 🤣

Yay congrats to you and Charlie on your Cottages Rating!!! ✨ and an engagement! Wow so romantic whoever this man is ? He did GOOD!! 💕 I love all the farming and food info on learn in here!! Charlie has a lot to say! And passion for it! Either a speaker on this issue or? His own farm!! 💕

38:40 This has always been my favorite part of this couple's house. The classic wood wall really looks elegant. It's beautiful. I love it. The christmas decorations made it even look more classy. I super love it.

It is wonderful that Charlie is so passionate about the farmers and buying local. Bless the both of you!!🎄🎄

Speaking of farm shops / British farmers of course is wonderful. May I ask however how you expect the average population to be able to afford such wonderful produce. Sadly completely tone deaf

I vote for Charlie as the enforcer and I am american😂 Truth prevails❤️

I also grew up with parents and grandparents who steamed and boiled vegetables until they were without texture and were flavorless 😂😂😂

I know you both said, you wouldn’t move but - could you imagine the farm you could have, save land, produce the best meat…… what a dream ❤like Miss Potter, how her land is protected. ❤

The red velvet dress is most likely cotton velvet. anything drapey is either rayon velvet, if stretchy other poly fibers are added and you also have silk velvet the most luxurious. Rayon velvet is a very close copy to silk velvet.

What a fab Christmas card. Definitely frame it.

Yes, Charlie, interview the farmers!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ That would be amazing and soooo important!! Tons of views you'd get too! Happy Christmas!

Josie, I love the intro! Would you please do a video of the front of your house and the area. Also I miss how you would model in front of the beautiful area showing your stairs and wall antique mirror. I want to say really enjoy when you show more of your absolutely beautiful house! Merry Christmas!

I totally agree about supporting your country as much as possible. Shop small businesses. Support local businesses.

The King of England AND The King of Organics. There may be a collab opportunity here for you. Dream about it. Happy Christmas to you, Charley and all the wonderful people watching.

The Pinterest talk. 😂 I love Pinterest so much and my husband is sitting here watching your video with me. He was set off about Pinterest. He very much agrees with Charlie, he cannot stand it. 😂😂😂
