Laura, you can never, ever, leave this house. I just hope I'm around in 30 years to see what the garden you have designed and built looks like. I can almost imagine it. It's special now but its going to be unbelievable in the years to come when everything grows and develops. So inspiring, thank you.

How in the WORLD were you able to make that stone walkway look like it was dropped down from Heaven?!! Beautiful curves, beautiful edges….ahhh. The progress on the hardscapes is so satisfying to me, you’d think it was in my own garden!! Question- have you considered doing before and after videos? I’ve been watching for years and think it would be fun to show clips from previous years’ tours followed by update clips of the same areas. Both eye level and drone views! Thank you all for the miles of smiles every morning during coffee time! 💚💚💚👩🏻‍🌾

🍂NOT doing it proper, Laura says!! LAURA & Aaron, is there ANYTHING you two cannot do??? THAT walkway is GORGEOUS!!! Such a wonderful job!!! 🥰

I'm loving it! Real stone as walls and pathways versus the cement blocks and pavers... there's just no comparison. The Hartley area is really taking shape to where your vision is becoming apparent to those of us not inside your head... never having a formal garden anywhere in all my years of gardening I'm excited to see how you marry the two styles together. Great job.

That stone pathway made my jaw drop to the floor. Stunning! Thank you guys for the ride. Love you all.

Aaron and Laura the pathway looks beautiful! So excited to see the boxwoods go in around the Hartley!!!!

Has anyone else added 'buttoned up' and 'a swoop of' to their gardening vocab? While I'm in the garden I plant a 'swoop of' this and a 'swoop of' that and feel so happy to 'button up' various projects... thanks Laura for getting into my head and my vocab! 🤣

It will be a perfect wedding location when your littles are ready for that chapter in their life.

The best thing is that you and Aaron are creating this together; combining your talents and skills. Joyous💗

You Laura and Aaron are the epitome of soul mates and make such a good team for your partnership in business and personal affairs.

Your stonework pathway looks amazing!!! It was worth the wait. It is all coming together!!🌸🌸

The curve on the rock path is so perfect 🎉 Awesome work guys!!

I’ve done small stone walkways and I am really impressed that you and Aaron are doing that huge one yourselves! It looks great ! Lots of patience required. That curve is soooo even.

Watching you build the stone walkway was the most satisfying project yet! I love the precision of the curves!

Wow, the vast expanse of green grass looks beautiful! So peaceful😊

That curved edge on the stone pathway is crazy perfect! So excited to see what continues to evolve around the Hartley! AND, that view behind you in your final shot was glorious with all the fall color popping !! Just beautiful Laura! Nice progress Aaron & Laura! (& Benny too!!!). 😊♥️ yay!!!! 😃

Is there anything you can’t do?! The path looks fantastic. You two are so talented!!

This walkway is stunning!! And the Hartley, dreamy. Can you imagine as this garden matures the photos you can take of your children here? Proms, Weddings, Family photos! An absolutely beautiful space your creating 💕 my vote is for weathered teak benches.

I love the contrast between the grass and the stone pathways. They look so beautiful set on the ground like that surrounded by the plants 💚💚💚

The old white iron gate arch would look lovely somewhere next to the Hartley.

I get this is your job and your content but watching the current developments, I am exhausted for you guys! 😂❤❤❤

STUNNING! This was so satisfying to watch seeing the build of the pathway! Can’t wait to see the big trees in situ. Your gifts and talents just amazes me, Laura! 😍

The gravel driveway looks so good

This is so much fun and inspirational to see the bones/infrastructure being put in place! Love the brick beds and gravel pathways. It's going to look amazing!

Oh, the stone pathway is BEAUTIFUL!! Laura, can you please do an Autumn tour for us? I see all your deciduous trees looking STUNNING in the background and need a proper tour before they lose their leaves!! 💖🍁🍂🍁💖

Wow - that path really gives you an idea of the scale of that planting bed 😳 Awesome job 👏

So envious of your weather. We've had nothing but rain for the last few weeks in the Highlands of Scotland.... I can't get my grass cut, or my bulbs planted...praying for a dry spell to get it all done before our first frost lol. Path is Looking fab. Such a transformation of that area xx

What personality of a walk. Perfect .

Your use of the landscape fabric is perfect. I am sure your viewers have had similar experiences to me with landscape fabric in beds. But, your use of it is totally appropriate, and will eliminate huge problems in the future.

Looks amazing! Love, love, love the walkway and the beds around the Hartley - oh my word! If you guys ever run out of projects, I offer my yard to you! 😂You guys are amazing. I am SO behind on you and Jenny's videos - which is driving me crazy - but I know this winter when I'm hibernating I'll have some amazing content to watch to help me forget about winter 🥰 PS I love black benches especially with all of the white structures on your property.

I can't believe she says, "We don't know what we are doing." The walkway is professional and it works for your climate. It's beautiful and the Hartley progress update lifts my spirts. It's wonderful to have so much to look forward to.

Laura I think u should put some light lamps tooo

Laura, the wonderful design skills you have complement Aaron’s practical skills beautifully - it’s like watching a choreographed dance.

Laura, Jack (from that beautiful Is.) would be (like we are) proud of you. How many acres do you have ? You both have fabulous plans& are an inspiration to us all. Love from Australia.

placing the stones reminds me of a puzzle..... looks great

As always very inspiring. I have created three seating areas on my property. And I sit back and while I drink my tea I ponder my decisions if it I like it stays and if I don't I know the end of the world won't happen if I make changes same with my plants. I finally am able to part with ideas that don't quite work. Thanks again Laura and Aaron for coming into our lives.

It’s looking so good! I’ve laid flag stone with my mom, it really is like a big puzzle. We had fun making a path and a campfire area with the stone. We were lucky that a farm house on our land collapsed and had fieldstone and flag stone everywhere.

Laura- you guys made that look easy! Totally impressed how smooth you were able to keep the edges! Careful… jack barnewells gonna call you two for hard scaping his next job! 😂

I have Hartley envy... along with the rest of your followers. The vista across the lawn in the background as you were wrapping up, with those autumn colours, had me sighing as well.

WOW! That's all I can say. WOW!💗

Love the walkway! I can see benches along the way. Everything you guys are doing is so magical! It’s looking like a proper botanical garden.

The stone pathway is looking amazing… I can’t believe how sharp the edges are… great job!

The Hartley area looks so good! The team did a great job.

The stone pathway is just amazing!

It all looks great and I love the rock path. Using landscape fabric shouldn’t be controversial… it’s your yard!

Your new name is Midas! Everything you touch turns into gold.😉

I’m such a visual person as well, that it wasn’t until you went inside the Hartley looking outward that I actually had that aha moment. Having a clean straight brick outline sure makes for a clear define boundary area. Once the landscape is in place its going to be so beautiful. Also, all the Fall color peeking throughout the surrounding areas around you - especially, towards the end of the video was really pretty. 💛🍂🧡🍁🤎

Your ideas never seize to amaze me.

Oh WOW!!! Absolutely beautiful and charming! You has a vision and it came true to life! The rock placement is perfect and true artwork! 🧡❤️💜💙💚

It always makes me smile when Laura talks about benches to sit on and enjoy the scenery: if there is someone who is always on her toes it’s Laura! 😅 the path is lovely! That crisp edge is everything

That stone walkway looks amazing. A lot of back breaking work.

In Laura's words:"OH MY WORD!!!!" That New Pathway is Absolutely Beautifullllll!!!! I Loveeee it!!!! 🌺❤️🌺

That pathway does add an amazing definition to that area. One more beautiful layer. You and Aaron have put so much thoughtfulness into the Hartley...it will be an amazing space!

A suggestion for benches in the Hartley garden area. To continue the English formal garden theme, you could look at Lutyens style wooden benches. Edwin Lutyens was a famous architect who designed many English country houses and usually partnered with Gertrude Jekyll for the garden designs. You can find Lutyens benches in his typical style, which would complement your English-made greenhouse beautifully!

Looks absolutely beautiful! I remember 1st watching your videos several years ago. How much your garden has changed. Amazing!!

I'm amazed at how clean the edges of the path are!

You made the stone lifting and fitting look so easy. Already has very finished look!

That walkway looks so good! Can't wait to see how it ends up looking when you're finished with it. It's hard to believe you could top that in one video but then you just walk over to the Hartley and surrounding garden and well, you've topped it. It's all so beautiful- congrats on creating such a wonderful space for you and your family to enjoy.

Laura, Aaron, Is I look @ the new path, I can't help but hear Munchkins singing "Follow the Yellow Brick Road!" in my head. 😆

Had to laugh when you said you feel like you used to do a lot of that heavy lifting but now, 2 hrs was enough! Wait till you’re 60!! A 1/2 hr will be plenty. 🤣

That walkway looks great in that space. I want one now.🤔 Great job. Hartley happiness.

Good morning Laura, Aaron and GA friends! So excited to see the title this morning “Stone pathway & Hartley landscape update!” You have such a beautiful talent and spirit Laura! You definitely inspire me to try things in my home, garden and cooking that I’d never thought about before…Thank U!💜

My back hurts just watching you guys. Lol Love the work you're doing! Beautiful!

In my experience, McKinnon and Harris is without a doubt the gold standard for garden furniture!

It’s beautiful, I can see it already!

It's great that you showed us the stone walkway and explained how you would fill the gaps with compost. You might have to put off installing more until the big trees are delivered and planted. I realized that I am more visual than I thought when you showed the Hartley beds. Thanks.

I love the formality around the Hartley. Can't wait to see it complete!

I love your use of landscape fabric! It's an item that is often overused, or used in the wrong context but you nail it! And way to only use the good stuff. That makes a huge difference for sure.

Laura & Arron, Your stone path is looking amazing, just continue to take your time. You both have a good eye for what looks good and pleasing to your eyes. My husband and I just went to the rock yard and loaded 300lbs. of Rustic Basalt 1-3" patio stone for a garden boarder that I am working on into the back of our little pathfinder and I was spent, that heavy lifting takes a toll on the body;/ Thanks for sharing, it gives us inspiration! Happy Gardening!

😻lucky neighbors to have such a lovely view of your gardens.

The arbor from the triangle garden would look so beautiful for the entrance of the stone path. As you continue to fill in that area with the plantings it would become a magical stroll through that garden area.

I love the tree behind your where the brick’s project is, west side

I’m blown away at how well you managed the curves of your gorgeous stone walkway without cutting any stones!! I’m exhausted just watching you! 😊♥️

Everything is looking so awesome!

This is my favorite project 😊

Look at all this progress!!!! Oh my word!! I can see the vision so clearly 😍

Is there such thing as ASMR with watching people laying stone in an orderly fashion? That was so satisfying to watch...

I saw the landscape fabric and went on high alert for information! Fairly soon, landscapers will be placing commercial grade landscape fabric around the privacy shrubs we recently planted. I used Captain Jack’s at the highest setting to kill weeds. It took a full bottle just to deal with 1/3 of the space inundated with weeds. Captain Jack’s was effective, however, after the 1st rain, and a total of only 9 days later, the weeds were back in full force. I have never seen anything like it! First, I wanted to cry, then I wanted a flame thrower to burn all of the weeds. Talk about disappointment and discouragement. I gave up and said yes to the landscape fabric suggested by the landscape designer. Like you, my choices would be spraying weeds every single week, sometimes with more harsher chemicals (which I don’t want to do) or just install the landscape fabric. I really appreciate how you respect the environment and try to use products less lethal to the environment, while making best practices decisions for your landscape. Everyone is walking in their own shoes and have to make choices based upon their individual situation while balancing the macro system environment . Thank you for being an example of that balance and for providing so much information I believe viewers value

That pathway looks amazing exactly what that space needed. So many exciting things happening I look forward every day to see the progress❣️

I love when there are taller plantings on the curves so that you can not see what is around the bend. It creates a bit of mystery to the garden.

The brick around the Hartley looks amazing, I can't wait to see it with plants!! I think the look of Italian Cypress would be perfect for your Hartley and black benches will match your house as well. I am so excited to see the finished look, I can't imagine how you and Aaron feel!! So... in LOVE with the stone path, you are an awesome team!! Really enjoy when your kids pop in and out of your video's, they are so adorable and getting so big!! Can't wait to see what they are for Halloween! Thank you for sharing your life, sending hugs!

That walkway...AMAZING! Your vision and teamwork are wonderful!

Soap box statement coming: Sharing your beautiful family, garden, and expertise does not and should not open you up to criticism or nick picking comments about the choices you make for your life. If people kept their remarks within the bounds of how they would like to be treated you wouldn’t have to justify yourself, ever. How nice would that be! Thank you Laura for all you have taught me. I will never judge you for using landscape fabric or planting toxic plants on your property. I know you’d do the same for me. Love and Peace out.

How talented y'all are! Your vision is like no other I have ever seen!

outstanding pathway! you guys must be pretty dang good at tetris 😁

That curve will pull your curiosity around any tree you put there, it should give it a secret garden effect. Good job!

That type of preplanning is remarkable! True teamwork!

Your pathway is looking amazing.

looks amazing.....you are so blessed to have the amazing crew that helps!

LOVE the formal brick planting areas❤

Hi Laura. Gardens are really coming together. Already look amazing. I love that stone path that you and Aaron was working on. Good job to. Your videos are great and brings me and other huge infusuasim to complete our own projects. Looking forward to more. Happy gardening. Take care. 👌🌲🌿🪴👍❤

For all of us that wanted to see large boulders in the landscape, this is a wonderfully picturesque substitute of beautiful hard scape 😁❣️Just gorgeous. You both have a good eye 👁👁for right pieces and overall shape. Blessings

Add a beautiful water fountain next to the flagstone so when you’re sitting on the benches it will be charming.

Love the pathway and the shaping around the Hartley!

Consider A Stone Walkway For The Chicken Coop Area, Rather Than Pallet.

I think you do amazingly well with the placement of the stones!

I can see some of the trees start to change foliage and look so pretty.

I’m glad you placed the stones close together in the pathway.

Great job on the walkway, so gratifying to admire your hard work. My vote would be black benches - it will anchor the space. 👏👏👏👍🏼

Oh my goodness that walkway looks so great it's fabulous you guys are such pros I love it I love the curve it's gonna look beautiful my gosh that garden looks beautiful❤️
