Hi Paul, I want to say thank for keeping the gradations between backer levels a bit simpler this time. Lot's of options get confusing.

I also want to say thank you to everyone who put their content up as rewards. I might be old fashioned but I prefer the mix being heavier on the book side rather than videos.

Thank you everyone who contributed because now I get to learn from all of this great content!

We just hit a new record!  $22,334 in under 6 hours, surpassing the SKIP kickstarter which hit $22,169 in the first day of the campaign!

Our best start to a kickstarter campaign yet!

The way we measure that is with kicktraq.  And I'm not sure where kicktraq draws the line for "first day".  10pm?  Midnight?

https://kicktraq.com/projects/paulwheaton/skip-0/#chart-daily
https://kicktraq.com/projects/paulwheaton/garden-master/#chart-daily

So we gotta see kicktraq show a bigger number for day 1.

I shared it at the bottom of my most recent blog post: https://thenourishinghearthfire.com/2022/10/12/my-favourite-tools-for-self-sufficient-gardening-on-rough-land/

Hopefully it will bring some more backers in. Let me know if anything needs to be changed for what I wrote about the Kickstarter.

What an amazing launch for this Kickstarter. I just backed it, and am so excited to watch all the stretch goals role in. How many times over can we exceed the original funding goal? As an attendee if the Garden Master class, I can say for certain that this will be a phenomenal product. I’m trilled to be part of helping get Helen’s teachings to a wider audience.

Hey Beau, quick question. This is my third kickstarter with y’all. Am I still able to get the new backers rewards too? That’s some good stuff in there.

I've been busy lately so I'm a bit slower getting my pledge in, but I'm still in on the first day.    Happy to help fund this and I look forward to seeing the edited video!

I hit Kickstarter  at a full toss.  I got in at Backer 271, and don't think I was too slow off the mark.
Looks better in dollars AU though

AUD44,806
and 371 backers as at 12 October 20:21 AEDT

Congratulations on a great start.  Looking forward to yet another fabulous Kickstart
