Good morning! Iā€™d like to introduce a group of lovely Gen-x small YouTubers that I have formed quite a close bond with as we are all building small channels. This video highlights each of their channels and their lively personalities!
Take a look - itā€™s such a variety of content, you may find a new channel to watch! This is my little tribe of people that are helping me get started as a new YouTuber!
Take a minute and watch this video and see if any of their content is JUST WHAT YOUā€™VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!
They are all darling people with great, authentic content in a variety of subjects. Enjoy!!!

Hi Friends!!
In response to requests, and Momā€™s LOVE of receiving mail (the old fashioned kind) we opened a PO Box in hopes that she will receive a little shower of holiday cards this holiday season!
If you have the time and inkling to spread a little holiday cheer (just a card or letter) she will immensely enjoy the effort!
You can send to:
Grandma Pickletrees
PO Box 68
Hartly, DE 19953

We love all the love we receive on this channel and hope that this upcoming season of joy will be special to all!!! Thank you from our ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø!

Hello Pickletrees community! Our favorite time of year is almost here! Cucumber harvesting! We grow several varieties of Asian cucumbers- they are wrinkly and thin skinned, very long, and generally have small seeds.
Itā€™s been many years since mom has made her pickles, so maybe this year we will together.
Interestingly, the name Pickletrees came from my granddaughter, randomly. At that time Mom barely remembered things minute to minute, but she said ā€œPickles donā€™t grow on trees!ā€ And remembered the name. Now I feel a tie in to my Dad and his love of gardening as well as the times the 3 of us shared many summers making pickles.
Iā€™ll make a few videos about what is spilling out of the garden! Iā€™m hoping that Mom will want to participate in the process if she knows we are recording for YoU!!
Thank you all for your sweetest comments and words of support. Hmmm maybe I should record her reactions as I read her the comments! (She doesnā€™t see well) She gets a cute smile, and wistful gaze, and I can see that she is coming alive with purpose!
May your smile bless someoneā€™s day! And watch for more jokes and long form content! Thanks for being here! (Random flower pics just to share the beauty)

We picked our first bouquet from the garden today! Mom is so thrilled with the community we are building! 3 months ago she had no light in her eyes and rarely smiled, didnā€™t practice much self care, and had no purpose. We started making little videos of her and you all started responding with so much love!
Caregiving was so depressing just a few short months ago. Like we were just crossing off days until she passed. Now, itā€™s like she has been given a new life! She loves the comments, and canā€™t believe so many people LIKE her!!
Thank you ALL from the bottom of my heart!
Hereā€™s to many more jokes and words of wisdom from a lovely lady with 92 years of life, writing yet another chapter in her blessed life!
