We have 2 feet of snow in the forecast and I'm down bigtime with the flu, so my teenage son is tasked with everything from gassing up vehicles and the snowblower to firewood duty. Thankfully, the food we grew, foraged, and preserved took one major worry out of the equation! This is why we prepare!

@Stephanie-rf9xs Год назад

I hope you feel better soon! I take flu seriously as my dear husband had complication from flu 5 years that has left him with permanent heart damage, but he survived when his doctors felt he wouldn’t. Please take good care of yourself.

@journeywithnichole Год назад

Good work!!

@jenniferhaasch7961 Год назад

That's not a pantry that's a work of art!

@eyeswideopen5517 Год назад

Carolyn, thank you so much for taking us along on a tour of your food stores. There is a certain level of vulnerability in doing so and for me it is so appreciated. What a wonderful hardworking family you and Josh have! God bless you all!

@homesteadgamer1257 Год назад

Wow I can't believe you guys are still getting so many eggs! All my hens stopped laying almost 2 months ago as soon as freezing temps settled in at night.

@dianawortman4994 Год назад

Amazing. What an incredibly hardworking family. We learn so much from your normal day!

@amariahg5450 Год назад

We got a half foot of snow today, and I also found out that the 60+ lbs of potatoes I bought have begun to sprout - I am planning to can and dehydrate as much as possible today and tomorrow! Don't want to lose all that food!

@redTtop Год назад

When my husband used to hunt, I would can deer stew meat because I don’t like deer burger. It tastes just like beef! I would make stews, soups, or just meat and gravy for mashed potatoes and biscuits! I miss that meat! I used to go to the coast and buy albacore tuna from the fishing boats and would can it. It tasted like chicken! So good!

@carolynparker7007 Год назад

Your skills and drive are amazing. I am impressed with how you and Josh are on the some page and appear to support one another. It is such a wonderful example to your page.

@bccoaster8533 Год назад

All people should slowly learn to be more self sufficient in preparation for hard times. Great information here.

@kristinford582 Год назад

Thanks for showing your purchased canned items! I just don’t have the weather or room to grow surplus tomatoes, pumpkins, corn, and I am so jealous of all the homesteaders with shelves and shelves of those things. I believe we need to maximize what we’re good at and supplement where we need to! Just managing homestead style food storage and stock rotation is a big feat. This is a great reminder you don’t need to produce it all to feel like a successful homesteader.

@Johndeere-wj3qg Год назад

Is there anything more beautiful than shelves filled with home canned goods! ☺

@k.p.1139 Год назад

This just goes to show that persistence, a lot of patience, and determination, can get you on a better track, and life. Thanks for the continued encouragement! Endurance, endurance, endurance! The key to it all.

@homesteadgamer1257 Год назад

Wow, crab apples? I have never heard of anyone using it so many different ways. A hard crab apple cider sounds really good, actually.

@juliegilmore8745 Год назад

absolutely incredible. I am in Aust, so this lady's lifestyle is so much different to our, due to her location and size of the family . But I am facinated by their organisation, and prepartion. Amazing.

@rebeccafritzinger9457 Год назад

What an amazing tour. Wishing I was a new neighbor just moving in and you stop by with a welcome basket. The ciders and plum jam look amazing. I wish I could live with you for a week I could learn so many new things. You also gave me ideas for next year ... to hang my cut off pepper plants. When season changed and a few were still on and not ripe I just left the plant go but I only lost a few peppers maybe 4. You are an amazing woman, mother, and teacher you have taught me a lot that at 51 I'm going to start attempting. I asked my kids for a pressure canner for Christmas so your videos come January will be watched and enjoyed greatly. Thank you.

@lindawilliams1314 Год назад

It is such a good feeling knowing we are well supplied until the next harvest. Seeds for 2023 purchased weeks ago as well as seeds saved. Still need to "process" chickens for freezing and canning. Will be canning dried beans this week for convenience. Beautiful pantry to nourish your beautiful family!

@machellesnow4214 Год назад

I would love to get your recipes for larger quantities. Sometimes when I triple a recipe it doesn't turn out well. I cook for a large family as well. Maybe you could put them together in a recipe book or a digital download to sell.

@starrstylist7441 Год назад

WOW! 13 to 15 people a meal! God bless you girl and another one is on the way :) I would LOVE to have even HALF the space you have lol The room you usually do your videos, is my absolute favorite! Many blessings to you and your family! I've been stocking for almost 3 years now and there is not an empty space in my home lol Under my beds, in my closets, IN my bedroom corners etc. But we have been blessed to be able to do this before all the crazy price increases we have now.

@judyzander3681 Год назад

I haven't watched for a while-- didn't know you are expecting again! Congratulations!!! Is this #10?? How exciting❤ Your food storage is really amazing. You make me tired just seeing all those jars and freezers. LOL

@scattershomestead Год назад

Love the full shelves! I also appreciate how much you teach us as you share!

@HomesteadingFamily Год назад

Thanks so much!

@thewitchykitchen Год назад

Having a pantry like this saves so much time and hassle. All five of us just went through Covid. During that first week, I was so grateful that we could just pull cans of the shelves for dinner and lunch. Lots of chicken soup with turmeric that way, stews, more soup and elderberry juice from the freezer, was made into toddy’s. We are only 5, but we do the same thing you do. It saves time and money, and you know that what you serve is good and healthy. We also have food allergies, so access to safe foods is amazing. I really wish I had access to cold storage like you have, but it’s too hot here in the south. Instead I have an extra refrigerator, which doesn’t give me a lot of free space, but still works. I do have one advantage you don’t. We can and do grow vegetables year round, since the temperatures rarely goes below the mid 30’s. The only fruit we have access to all years round, is orange though, but it is a privilege always having access to oranges. This weekend they are promising 80F, so I will be lucky if my plants don’t bolt, but I covered them up so hopefully they won’t. Anyway. That’s for another great video.

@Mel-qz6hz 2 месяца назад

Organized, plentiful & wholesome. And bacon too!?!?! It don’t get better than that. You have put in the smart work and it really shows. That’s an amazing example of love for your family.

Thanks for sharing! I would love to see pregnancy videos what you eat in a day, birth plans, how you all manage to homesteading pregnant and post pardum, breast feeding and first time motherly advice for the young homesteader, etc! :)

@TheWayWalker Год назад

You are very organized and I love the ideas on bulk buys as well as different types of storing 🙂

@silviamagda Год назад

What a beautiful pantry! We eat those types of grapes here in Spain. They're between grapes and raisins. Not too dry like raisins, but not fresh like grapes. They're really good.

@DawnDBoyerPhD Год назад

The last year I have been actively canning and dehydrating a ton of food to fill a 9’x9’ pantry room with about 160+ square feet of shelves - having fun doing it, too!!

@skycaptain95 Год назад

Fantastic pantry, but please consider putting in wood retaining strips (or something similar) on the front of the rows so an earthquake doesn't ruin all your hard work.

@sandytmobile4467 Год назад

You have a beautiful set up wow ! I'm doing my best to store up my favorite squash like butternut, acorn squash, they make so many yum dishes and soups, pies. So we understand what your doing. We have a small place but we're happy to have so much to feed us in a time we're in.

@2Sugarbears 11 месяцев назад

That is the most beautiful sight I have ever seen. Makes me want to weep with envy.

@Hannahsunshine- Год назад

I'm so jealous of all the freeze dried food 😭❤️ it all looks so bright and you make it sound so good. So blessed 🙏

@winningrabbit9843 Год назад

Most of us can’t afford one and I feel badly for anyone watching that doesn’t have enough food for the week ahead.

@Hannahsunshine- Год назад

@@winningrabbit9843 I'm jealous of the freeze dryer but I'm not bitter. Your comment reminds me of the meme where the guy in the wheel chair looks out the window and says he's jealous of the man walking. The man walking says he's jealous of the man on the bike. The man on the bike is jealous of the man that can drive... We are all in different places in our lives but that doesn't mean other's blessings can't be celebrated. They worked hard to grow, raise and preserve their food for their large family. That has nothing to do with people who don't have the same.

@winningrabbit9843 Год назад

@@Hannahsunshine- something tells me that the people around you believe you talk too much. Maybe you’ve already been told this (a lot LOL) Assuming I’m bitter is also another flaw you have; assuming .

@Hannahsunshine- Год назад

@@winningrabbit9843 it's notta big deal, friend. I hope everyone is as blessed as they are one day. We all deserve to find happiness and food security for our loved ones. Have a good day ✨ 😊

@hannahdurham1791 Год назад

I was just typing a comment saying I just wish she could mention what else she would do with the freeze dried things if she didn’t have a freeze dryer. There’s plenty of people to watch who don’t freeze dry so you can find other options but I wish she could’ve mentioned, as she clearly had other methods of preserving those items for the many years before she got the freeze dryer! Not at ALL bitter just more of an editorial thought 🤣🤣 like if she said it I wouldn’t have to go look at someone else to say it

@brianadixon8995 Год назад

I have to keep reminding myself that you are a large household while we are just 2 people. So need to stop comparing myself to you guys. 😆 But its cool to see how a large family stays fed but with good food. Would love to see a make dinner with us video. See how you get a meal on the table for so many.

@monicaraney5649 Год назад

I can't believe you are pregnant! Congratulations!!

@Adventures_Of_Reel_Nauti Год назад

If you ever get a ranch style beans recipe down, please share it. There is nothing like a ground beef patty, baked potato and ranch style beans for a quick meal. I grew up on this too.

@danielleterry2331 Год назад

I sooo wish I had shelves right now my pantry is in closets all my cupboards and under beds🥴 they 2 grown kids will have their cabin done enough to move in March so I can turn one of their bedrooms into a real pantry . I look at my store canned stuff and when it gets close to date I re pressure can to extend life of food and replacing anything we eat . Having shelves would make my keeping a eye on dates of my foods, now I try and pick a date on callender and do it all every month. Your pantry is what I will be wanting to mimic once I get it set up

@homesteadgamer1257 Год назад

I LOVE love love your "fridge" room where you keep the eggs and grapes and bacon!! I've wanted something similar for awhile, now the only step is to find the right land. And so awesome you're curing it the old-fashioned way! The old ways are the best. Time-tested methods for sure!

@mamamode1312 Год назад

I have not had bacon like that in 40+ years!!! You are so right, no other bacon touches that!!! Your children are so amazingly blessed to experience this. 🥓🥓🥓🥓🐓🐔🥚🍳🥚🍳

@susiea1419 Год назад

It’s fantastic but it so worries me when people show their full pantry on RU-vid as so many bad people out there and when times are hard like now who knows what they will. May God protect you all.

@linniecolt Год назад

This is what I want, and next year it`s when it starts

@goofyroofy Год назад

Great to see all the different methods of preserving and types of food. One method I use a lot is cooking ground beef on a cast iron pan, saving the rendered tallow in jars, and then dehydrating the meat inn the oven. Its let me avoid having to buy an extra 3 freezers, and the tast/texture is @ 95% as good as the ground beef in say a Mt House meal, so if you can't afford a freeze drier, look into it. I have meat thats over 1.5 yr old still like the day it was made all you need is a ziploc bag to store it, but of course you could use jars, mylar bags etc.

@vpfeffer Год назад

Your pantry is amazing. Please consider doing something to protect your jars. Some sort of barrier in front of the jars.

@theresalogsdon765 Год назад

You are a Busy Lady, I love you Pantries. I used to cook for a lot of people at times. So i thought. You have me beat, 7-10 daily, normally 5-6. My one big Challenge was my First Thanksgiving whwn i first got married was 72 Soldiers and Me and a few wives.. It's started out just 18 and kept Growing, lol. It was Awesome to see them all Eating and Enjoying a Home Style Thanksgiving. I did have some help. It was amazing to see when all Said and done there wasn't even a plate of leftovers. It was awesome.

@imogenbegns Год назад

Can you do a video on what you eat as a pregnant mom? I'm expecting now :) I remember watching your husband's video a few months back saying you were unwell with morning/all day sickness, now I'm in the same exact boat, lol. Can't wait to get to where you are: looking and feeling good

@lindascott6637 Год назад

Thank you for the tour. It is easy to get caught up in the crazy bulk storage and buying in some channels but I love how you repeated that this is what your family needs and not all families need this much. I do have extra, bought on sale and what we will need and can use before it goes bad. Love your family and channel!

@ljacobslv Год назад

Those ranch style beans are a gift from God.

@monte4808 Год назад

Actually yes we do need that much food. We have 13 kids. So its really nice to see what my pantry should look like.

@nicolesobol936 Год назад

Congratulations on your pregnancy! What a blessing❤️

@dancnluc1 Год назад

Great video. My pantry is basically a closet with 3 shelves. It is maxed out. We have a basement but it is damp. Several years ago we tried to store potatoes - they did not last long. This was a bad year in gardening for us due to critters. I guess they are really hungry. Deer have never jumped the fence before. Even they chewed the potato plants down which we never had that issue before. I was working longer hours and my cousin came down with lymes disease which he was having a hard time getting around. Definitely got to work on new fencing plus more around the property if we want to grow anything. I grow all my herbs in pots and then dyhrate them. When I open up the jar of herbs to use, the smell is awesome. I did some foraging as well. If things go better next year, I plan to slow down at work and focus more of foraging, growing more vegetables (I already have alot of my seeds for next year), growing more herbs, berries, etc.

@DebCnbfre Год назад

You pantry looks great. 🥰Like so many other pantries with beautifully canned glass product. But what about protecting the shelves with a security strip so jars don't fall out if there is ever an earth shaking. We are seeing nature shaking in places we have not before. Earthquakes are rare yet. So my thoughts go to that extra step of protecting our wonderful storage areas. May never need it yet a simple step to keep jars on their shelves in case...a shaking would happen for any reason. Something all of us need to do to keep them safe. 🙂

@philbrendahamilton9146 Год назад

I was wondering would you need some kind of shelf guard for earthquake protection? That way jars are protected from slipping of shelves. Love your videos! 🥰👌

@Gold-vv6lx Год назад

Pregnancy suits you, God bless the one coming. Root fruits are so good to have. I have a recipe of mashed root fruits that is so good and have a nice color. For your family size it would probably take 3 celeriac, 3 swede/rutabaga, 6 big carrots, 6 red beetroots and 12 potatoes. Peel and cut the root fruits in the order it is written and put into a big pan with some boiling salty water or bouillon (I prefer the latter). Let cook until tender. Drain the root fruits but keep some of the water/bouillon in a bowl/can beside. Mash the root fruits with salt, pepper and a big chunk of butter (lard would probably work fine to) and add a bit of the water/bouillon to get the consistence you like. Perfect to sausage or side pork.
