Hey Everyone!
I did a planning video which was supposed to come out before this one, but as I went to edit it, the sound was out, so I will re record and share my sheets etc and make it more, how I planned and how it went!
This is my actual trip though, and I'll get the haul edited up for tomorrow too :D

I’m always amazed at your supply runs. My friend worked up North and once a year I’d meet her in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and we’d do a barge run. Once a year a barge drops supplies into remote communities up far North. So she’d get me to meet her in Edmonton then we’d spend a few days buying her yearly supplies. It was such a feat. Then we’d take everything to the shipping company and they’d pack it on a pallet to be drop off months later in the Arctic. After I’d be so exhausted from slopping stuff around for days. Im always impressed watching you because I can relate to how much this is truly a labour of love. ❤

@AnoJanJan 2 месяца назад

I can't imagine being able to do a years worth of supplies in 1 shop. Definitely not for the faint hearted!

@OurSmallFootprint 2 месяца назад

Mum always needs a rest after helping me out lol! I do like that it has become such a constant for me that I know what I need, generally speaking and even when I'm increasing things, it feels like I can see what I need to increase etc without too much angst.

CALLING ALL VIEWERS! How about giving Nyssa a “Like”…. I can’t imagine doing all of this-- shopping and driving --AND filming for all of us as well!!! As always I’m exhausted just watching 😴Nice job Nyssa!

@jennyt7612 2 месяца назад

Thanks Nyssa, I really enjoy your videos. You are such a hard working person - what a fantastic effort to get everything done. It's apparent from the comments you receive from your subscribers (all over the world!) that all your content is very much appreciated

@sherriekemper1828 2 месяца назад

I think you could probably manage a large army or government after watching how you mastermind the '"shopping." That's an incredible amount of work and long days buying 8 weeks of food for a large family, buying furniture and making vehicle repairs. I bet your mom loves having you there for a few days and like all moms, helps you as she can. Thanks for sharing, it was enlightening to say the least. I personally may have to go restore a bit after all of that.

I am just awestruck every time I watch one of these - but this one in particular…fitting all that together I’d be willing to bet that you were an absolute whizz at Jenga & Tetris back in the day..! I just wish there was any way of getting this one out to more people, because if folk saw what you do on the regular to feed your family you’d pick up thousands more subscribers, I’m sure, as this is so very different to the usual type of shopping hauls we see all the time.

My favorite parts of the haul are when you tell us about the treats you get every single time and spending time with your mum and having dessert. Makes me so happy to know that you do treat yourself and find time for those little treats that are such a blessing to sneak in! Love that you did some public filming and yay Darryl for his work too! I don’t know how the prices are there but groceries are monstrously expensive here and every time I go to shop I want to cry a little! I do a ton of clearance shopping (meats and fruit/veg) and sometimes skim costco for the items that end in .97 or .00 (clearance for Costco). I’ve found many wonderful things to try on mark down at Costco for a fraction of the regular price.

New to your channel, first of all I want to say thank you for taking time out of your days to show us living off grid. My dad is 76 and has lived off grid for years and absolutely loves it! It's a healthier cleaner way of living and I always feel refreshed after visiting, more down to earth if you will. I love watching you create meals before you go shopping. You have inspired me to do better and be more creative. Best wishes from Victoria Australia 😊

@kristiemac9778 2 месяца назад

Nyssa, you did an amazing job in taking us àlong on this trip with you. Hello to your mum too! You were definitely loaded this trip but you did a fantastic job getting it all sorted and in. I'm sure you were absolutely knackered by the time you went to bed. It's hard with it getting darker quicker here in winter. Stay warm and I look forward to your next haul video. Thanks once again from semi warm logan

@katrinajones8819 2 месяца назад

I'll add as someone who is preparing to go off grid out near Tara in the near future I am learning so much from you and your videos. Even simple things like working on the home, removal of trees, general life ECT. That's on top of the animals, fruit and veggies planting and of course food. I'm a big believer in having a large excess of stock for pantry and personal supplies so I'm learning heaps from you on how to combat the elements and unwelcome animals. Keep up what you're doing and passing on to us as I love it

first off amazing as usual. second please tell Darryl that i think he did an amazing job on the lighting and the kitchen. third I can't wait to see how many tables and the price break down for everything. Fourth oh my you have so much prep ahead of you i am so looking forward to those videos. five can we get to see more freezer and fridge updates through the 8-10 weeks like I would love to see how it all changes as you prep things and use things. though others may find that part a little boring. but i love fridge, freezer and pantry type tours because i like seeing how what people use changes though the month and year. also have a good rest before you start batch prepping everything. you are amazing.

@OurSmallFootprint 2 месяца назад

I purposely remembered to film the fridge and freezer before I left (but that was the video without sound, so I'll still add that in when I redo that video) and I filmed the fridge and freezers after we loaded stuff, but as you say, it changes, we get the most important stuff in now, and then as we get that processed and canned or frozen things rotate in and out!

I am exhausted just watching your shopping trip. Great job filming. I love seeing the different items at all the stores. It’s fun seeing things at COSTCO that are almost packaged the same here in the states vs the different packaging of some items. We don’t have the large bags of spices, ours are in plastic containers. And seeing the difference in pricing too. I will say Nysa, you and your mum are the queens of packing the trailer and Ute.

I was thinking only today, while cooking, you could possibly get to have on hand Organ egg replacer for use in baking when eggs are low. I get mine from a gluten free shop or Coles. I started using it when a family member would not eat eggs. I found it pretty good. I hope the electricals on the car is fixed easy enough. How lovely to get home and find the stove was set up for you. 😊

@OurSmallFootprint 2 месяца назад

@heatherbolichowski1910 2 месяца назад

Just a thought… could you use that fabric African “slow cooker” thingy 😂 (can’t remember its name) to help with your proofing as it gets colder? Thanks for another great video. Great job on organizing and great haul on the desktops!!

@craftedbykittens 2 месяца назад

the bag cookers and straw boxes don't work for proofing because the way they work is you get you stew or meat dish up to a rolling boil on a stove then you put it in the bag or box to insulate it and keep the heat in while it then continues cooking from the residual heat. basically they insulate the pot so that it takes 6-10 hours to come down from a rolling boil temp to a safe eating temp and most thing will continue to cook until they get down to ambient temp. honestly the science behind that slow cook bags and hey boxes are absolutely amazing especially when you relize that they have been safely used in kitchens for hundreds of years long before humans truely understood food safety and the danger zone for bacterial growth. but basically since you don't heat up dough that much it won't work for proofing. in order to get it to a temp to stay at proofing temps you would have to heat the dough too much and it would kill the yeast. they also work well for keeping things cold but not safe to keep like most food cold just like to keep a drink cold for a few hours while working in the summer.

@heatherbolichowski1910 2 месяца назад

@@craftedbykittens Thank you! I did see Nyssa bring a dish up to the boil before using the bag in a previous video. My yeast doughs do let off heat themselves and they rise better when covered, so I thought the heat generated by the proofing/rising itself might be captured by the bag and be sufficient over the few coldest hours of winter night to make it work.
