Are you interested in learning how to prepare your own shelf stable foods at home? Meal prep the easy way? Not worry about the power going out and loosing all of your freezer meals (or need a better, faster, less expensive way to meal prep other than having a freezer full of food). Maybe you live in a small space like an apartment or townhome but you still want to have a stocked pantry. Start canning! Yup-it's not an outdated or unsafe method and in this video, I share how I'm building a sizeable canning pantry without a farm or big garden while living in the city! Many of you know that I've been working on my canning pantry for almost 2 years now and this is the big reveal. I'll also share a VERY personal story about what keeps me coming back to canning (and always will). Grab a cup (or glass) of something honey 'cuz this is a longer video, but its from my heart, to yours. I'll see you in my kitchen or garden soon!

Hi Friends! I'm nervous to share this, becauseI get pretty vulnerable. Here's the full story on WHY canning means so much to me!

Thank you for sharing...and for your mom and dad. You all are amazing.

@fleurettewoods6080 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing, I appreciate your vulnerability. I have been on a mission the last couple of years also to learn to can and stock my pantry with home canned products. I will be following along with you.

@robertsherman4597 Год назад

Ohhh honey, you touched my ❤️, I'll keep you mom in my prayers. And I'm glad she can enjoy eating through your canning, that is a blessing. May Abba Yah bless you and your family. ☺️

@juneroberts214 Год назад

May our Lord continue to bless your family. Your Mum is very strong, brave and proud of you. We aren’t supposed to know why certain things happen to us and our loved ones because God knows. Even though it was traumatic especially for your Mum just look at all the wonderful things that came about in your lives that brought you together even stronger. Enjoy your videos, your humour because your stories and great information. Stay blessed, grateful and all glory to God always. Hugs from the far northern town in Canada. 😊🙏🏼🙌🏼

@leahtruckenbrod1279 Год назад

Cass, You're parents MUST be incredible people based on how you have come to bless others. Absolutely love the "fruit of your spirit" and zest for living a more wholesome farm life where you are. Your approach to food and meals is a rich and unique perspective I've not encountered in years of avid homestead/garden content watching. Blessings to your family.

@BecomingaFarmGirl Год назад

Hi 👋🏾 Leah! Your words are incredibly kind and encouraging. What I thought was initially just a hobby truly turned into GOD preparing my heart and hands with a skill he knew I’d need in the future. Contentment is one thing I’m very much aware of and so, even while I wait to have a small homestead I am still thankful for what I have right now (and what I may not have in the future: health, strength, loved ones, etc). Thank you, sweet friend!

@jennievpollard77 2 года назад

I always felt that your channel was a blessing. This episode melted my heart. What your father said is true. We did skip a generation and almost lost what our ancestor passed on to us. My mother and grandmothers canned, and I am just beginning to can and also enjoy the fiber arts. Stay blessed and keep inspiring all of us.

WOW! Thank you for sharing your beautiful mother and her story. My mother recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and can cause swelling in her throat and tongue. I need to start canning and a blessing to her like you are for your parents. I really think you need to write a book with this story, recipes, just everything. You are Amazing ❤️

@nataliedelarocha5848 2 года назад

@@boondoggy2good idea, Thank you 😊

@BecomingaFarmGirl 2 года назад

Hello Natalie. I am so sorry to hear about your mother's health challenges. I know that is a heavy weight to carry so please know I have already prayed for you (and her) today and will continue to keep both of you covered in prayers. Yes, canning has been such an unexpected blessing my mom enjoys and I know your mom will appreciate it too. I see that several other folks have shared some recommendations below. I'm sending love and hugs. I very much can relate to what you are going through!

@ldivokyrn Год назад

I also have two diseases that cause my throat to swell, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome and Hereditary alpha Tryptasemia. A low histamine diet has helped. If your mom finds that type of diet helpful, maybe it can guide what foods you can for her. 😊

@JustCallMeInsane 2 года назад

Your parents are lovely!! I love how your dad pulled such a dad move - say nothing when he was on the spot then suddenly bursts into story. Your moms part made me tear up. She truly spent time on every word she wrote. Maybe on your future acreage you can plan out THREE pantries for her!! Two may not be enough 😂

@LCJCFAMILY Год назад

Sweet Sister I loved meeting your parents in this episode, what a treat. I too about 20 yrs. ago felt this over whelming feeling that I had to make a quilt, I am 60 now 40 at the time, I made it a very successful business, then I started my own catering business as I saw my mother was very successful with her, I too became successful but after 10 or so yrs. of doing that I got this urge to leave California and move to a farm in Missouri, so we did. after 2 yrs. being here my husband suddenly passed away, so I am here with my 4oyr old son that due to the war he is 8 and my 10yr old which thinks he is 30. but I have an extensive canning process and storage, I ferment, dehydrate and myself as well cannot afford the freeze dryer so I purchased a few of those cans. and your right I am the 3rd generation from all of that knowledge. thank you so much for sharing your beautiful family with us and had you not cried we would not have been able to empathize with what you're going through and letting it out really does help to release the pain we feel emotionally. I wish I had a daughter to pass this down to. God Bless you sister stay safe

@sassyannie6292 Год назад

Oh Cass, what a blessing! I was thinking of my Mom and crying because I miss her. She passed away in 2019. My Dad passed away in 2009. I was crying while you were on your couch talking about your Mom. What a blessing that she and your Dad are still here and are able to enjoy your food! They are so sweet and your Mom is so adorable. Im sending hugs. I love your ideas of your pantry. You are inspiring and I appreciate you and your ideas. Thank you, girl! Blessings!

@CherieNorquay 2 года назад

I don't even have words to say how moving this video is you are amazing and your family is amazing. Thank you for allowing us ibto your lives. This means so much to me. I am canning applesauce this week with my daughter her 4 kids and my 80 and 81 year old parents. Can't wait!

@anitanavarro4121 6 месяцев назад

Your story is incredibly heart warming. I was in tears when your mom told you God had given her peace. Thank you for sharing this amazing story.

@lisatangen4213 Год назад

I'm still tearing up over the impact your canning had on your mom's health. What a blessing. I'm praying you can settle into your dream of two acres (or more) this year!

@TheCornerofWhymsyAndBlyss Год назад

Cassandra, I just want to thank you and celebrate you for your vulnerability and transparency. I have been binge watching your videos all day and getting more and more inspired after each one. But this video made me stop to say thank you. Thank you for sharing your unique and creative approach to urban homesteading. Thank you for reminding us of the beauty of homemaking. And most importantly, thank you for loving your parents so much and finding a way to help your dear mother regain her health and vitality. You're amazing and a true blessing ❤

@mommabscrochetkitchen2439 2 года назад

Your mom is such a blessing and your dad is a card! Beef stew in a jar is another great item that your parents might enjoy. Just heat it up, add a flour/water rue to thicken and they are set. My family's favorite chicken and dumplings is 2 pints of chicken breast, 1 pint each chicken broth, carrots and potatoes. A handful of frozen peas. Heat to a simmer and thicken. Add drop biscuits and simmer until they are done. Absolutely wonderful 😋

@BecomingaFarmGirl 2 года назад

Oooooh, Momma B- that recipe sounds delicious and is one I will certainly give that a try! Thank you so much for sharing!

@BecomingaFarmGirl 2 года назад

Hello Marilyn! My family is truly the biggest blessing I have. I don't know where I'd be without those two. Thank you so much for your kind words. Many blessings to you and yours!

@patrice1966 Год назад

I’m so glad that your canning journey has enabled you to provide nutritious and delicious foods for your mom to enjoy. You are a huge blessing to your family and those of us who watch your channel.

@paulahenriksen3250 Год назад

Oh my gosh your mother is amazing! You can clearly hear every word she is speaking and what courage she has! Most people would be hiding. She is so proud of you!

@mruben8713 Год назад

Cass, I was so touched by your story today about your parents. The Lord works in mysterious ways and with imperfect people. Your gift and love of canning has filled a void in your parents life where they get food and love from you, across the miles - it makes perfect sense from God's eyes. I battled acute mold poisoning 6 yrs ago and like your mother, I couldn't eat hardly anything and lost 32 lb in 6 weeks, have had severe breathing trouble, seizures, heart attack, hair fell out & 32 other symptoms. I learned to juice dark green leafy vegetables for 2 years to survive, thrive & heal and now I'm inspired by you to can from my organic gardening. Thank you for sharing your wonderful family & love with us. God bless you all & never stop beliving in miracles. I am one.

@LizGross Год назад

Cassandra - I'm so thankful the RU-vid algorithm brought me to your channel. I live on 1.6 acres in Wisconsin and have been "becoming a farm girl" for about 13 years - starting with a patio garden when my husband and I lived in an upper duplex. I appreciate your vulnerability about your family connection to canning. And I'm totally snagging the shelf tag idea! Thank you for being here and for being you.

@susieplatt3874 2 года назад

I never comment, and I had to comment. This was SO touching and true. I love this channel. I grew up canning with my mom and my girls, but really only for fun or 4-H projects. I am really loving canning more and learning all of the things we can can! It's so much more then I ever knew! I also get a little angry, canning used to just be something fun and a way to not waste our garden produce. Now, I am stepping up my canning because I don't trust what is in the food we are buying. I never used to believe this could be true. I just read an article re toxins in baby food, and on a main stream media channel. It's heartbreaking to think food from our grocery store could be poisoning us and making us sick. But, on the bright side we have wonderful teachers like this! Please keep all your videos coming! Love you and praying for all of you!

@BecomingaFarmGirl 2 года назад

Hi Susie! It's been a busy work week so I'm sorry for just getting to you now. Your comment mentions so many good tidbits that I couldn't agree with more! Untangling myself from the industrialized food system over the last few years is something that, like you, I'm only getting more and more convicted about. It's truly a skill that empowers your health, cooking, and food security in so many ways, yet its still mostly thought of as an outdated skill or folks are misinformed about its safety. Like you, the number of recalls and skeptical decisions food companies make is alarming. Keep canning honey! Each year the goal is to scale up a bit more and eventually, both you and I will get there!

@gwynn8388 Год назад

Sister in Faith….this is one of the best videos I have ever watched. I really felt how much you love your parents. I love, even more, how you speak of our Lord. Without our Heavenly Father we are so lost. He prepared you for such a time as this and it’s so beautiful that you recognize His hand in that. May your light continue to shine so bright and touch the lives of many 💕

@jodibellamy2713 Год назад

Sister, you are precious! God bless you and your sweet mama! What a priceless gift you have given your parents!

Hi 👋🏾 Carrie! This was a very vulnerable video that I was very nervous to share but it is central to why canning means so much to me. Thank you for your service as a nurse. Im so happy you said hello!

@Myfavorites877 2 года назад

So heart touching. Your mom is a beautiful lady. I’m so glad you were able to bless her and your dad through your canning.

@joanhummingbird3190 Год назад

Beautiful. How I feel towards this video is " AMEN". 🤣🤣🤣 Totally enjoyed, and I had tears! I don't cry. ❤️

@annswann1941 Год назад

Oh Cassandra, I feel you! ♥️ Years ago my mom had throat cancer. The treatment kept her with us but deteriorated her jaw and affected her swallowing. After struggling with that for a few years she simply lost interest in eating & drinking. Soon she became dehydrated which weakened her and made her unable to live on her own. The big differences in our stories are that I grew up canning at my mom’s side and that I lost my mom three years ago. The first video of yours that I’d watched you were on the phone with your mom while opening a package from her💕 I felt the love between you 😊 I love your beautiful, bubbly personality, the tenderness you show and of course the great information you share. God is amazing with His timing, He knew your mom would need your canning so He gave you the passion and means of learning ♥️ I’m so happy to have you as a new RU-vid friend 😊

@BecomingaFarmGirl Год назад

Hello Ann! Firstly, I want to hug you because I can only imagine the challenges, strength, highs and lows you, your mom and loved ones went through with her diagnosis. I was so nervous to share this but I at least hoped it would help someone else not feel alone. Plus, after spending years watching canning channels I’d not heard someone share how canning helped in this way. You are so right, the Lord was preparing me and I’m so glad he only gave me the part of the picture I needed to see at the time. Prior to the video you watched first I hadn’t shown my mom, but the outpouring of understanding has given me courage to do so more and more. What a gift to have the memories of learning to can from your sweet momma. Thank you for your sweet words my friend, I cherish them more than you know!

@yourdarnwright4878 Год назад

I also wanted to say your mom and dad are blessed to have a daughter like you. 🙏🏾

@debraarnold8610 Год назад

Cassandra, I've only recently found your channel and let me say, "I LOVE it and you!" Thank you for letting yourself be so honest and vulnerable. Hearing your parents share their thoughts about canning was such a hoot. You all seem like such fun people. Stay strong and real. Keeping you and your family in my prayers. God bless you all.

@Treefarmld Год назад

Your mother is so so courageous! And you’re the best daughter ever! God bless you and your lovely family! Keep canning Cass! We want to see your videos and your accomplishments!❤

@gccheryl4038 Год назад

Hi Cassandra! I'm Cheryl living near the SE Texas Gulf Coast, 67 years old, and recently subscribed be-CAUSE I have had the same frustration with other methods of building food storage!! It's just my husband and I (no kids) and we are in the hottest most humid climate here with limited space. Most of what I learned about cooking was in high school - YES! we had great home economics classes, including even how to care for the sick at home, can you believe that??! I loved it and ended up as a teachers aid in my junior year. My mother canned but did not teach me so I am learning on my own and currently only water bath can. Thank you thank you for sharing your mission, and this video especially is going to be a game changer for some. All the love girl!!

@dsvernitsky Год назад

Like so many have shared, I found your channel this week and have been watching ALL the videos. I have been moved by your testimony and your effervescent spirit, God has graced you with so much favor and a beautiful character. Thank you for sharing, I’m weeping at Gods grace and love, His mercy for your parents in preparing you to care for them. SO BEAUTIFUL ❤

@grarycat1984 Год назад

Well you did it again Mrs.Cass, I'm blubbering all over the place. You my love are an inspiration. My husband and I had covid in 21 on our anniversary 🙄 during that time. I started gardening, which I loved...but covid took my taste, smell, legs and my thoughts. I have spontaneous collapse in my legs. I had to reprogram my life. I was out of work for months doing rehab, going a little crazy and I just quit gardening all together, but you have given me new found hope so thank you. My youngest and I will be back in the soil soon, im preeping for my winter garden, and my first set of canned goods. Your heart is beautiful. Thank you for sharing a glimpse of your world with us.❤ Tia

@GoodThingsEtc Год назад

Thank you for being so candid and raw! When i share my food , with people i love, it fills my heart with such joy! Bless your hearts and gratitude that you could provide nutrition not only for your moms health, but for her spirit! :) My motto is : Food=Love=Medicine. I cried along with you, as both of my parents are no longer lviing.

Having your mom become ill is the scariest thing in the world. I have been in your place and feel your frustration with the medical world.

I've been canning for years, but I'm looking to expand on what I can. I can't wait to look at all your recipes. You do RU-vid professionally and beautifully! Wish we were local and could be canning friends!

@karenfaucheux665 Год назад

I'm so thankful I have found your channel. I love your honesty and the love you and your family clearly have for each other. Your parents are obviously a blessing and you are blessing them back with your homeade goods. It touched home with me as I have a mother who needs softer foods as well and this has given me great inspiration. Also, I find you are so knowledgeable and I get excited to watch your videos to see what I will learn. You show how really anyone can do some type of canning or preserving. Great job and thank you!

@thistledewfarm Год назад

You are following in my footsteps. Except my mom did teach me to can and it all began when I was 14. I’m 60 now, mom and dad are gone, and I do have a farm, which was my dream too. You remind me of my daughter Venessa, a school teacher too. Love your channel. Your parents are blessed and they know it.

@lisalink6976 Год назад

I met you yesterday on Canuary, and stated I would be visiting your channel. Well, here I am, binge watching. I’m so drawn to your style. Showing us multiple ways of using the product we put so much love and care into before getting to the pushes me straight to the the next video. And your parents…your mom is precious…amazing!!! Your dad is so cute and sweet sharing how you are carrying on the family legacy of the ladies he loved from his childhood. I have subscribed and rang your bell. With each new video I will lift you guys up in prayer that in the future you will be living closer to them. Be blessed.

@BecomingaFarmGirl Год назад

Hi 👋🏾 Lisa! Your words about my folks mean so much to me because they are my world! Thank you for keeping us in your prayers. I’m so glad the Lord prepared me to help mama out by learning to can years before it would truly come in handy. When I first started canning I thought, “Now how am I actually going to use this?” Especially since I wanted to stop buying premade stuff; I know many folks are new to canning and truly a money saver is to eat what you can and Can what you eat! I appreciate you, Lisa!

@tnpreparer8903 Год назад

What an amazing story about your mom and how home-canned food turned out to be such a blessing for you. Thank you for sharing!

@sherryevans2989 Год назад

OMG! I only recently discovered your channel and just love your videos. This episode had me crying right along with you! The way canning has helped your mom has probably extended her life as well as made her healthier. It definitely has made her life more enjoyable. We never know what small things can turn into huge blessings for not only us, but also others. Keep up the great work.

@InvernessFlorida2023 Год назад

I just found your channel this month. And I love it! I've been organic gardening for probably 7-8 years now, it's so soothing for me even though it is so much work. But the rewards are truly amazing 😍 I started canning a few years ago. Also AMAZING. Watching this video this morning has me in such tears 😭 I am so thankful you were able to do this, God knows. Your family is so lovely.

@gailcroslin1647 2 года назад

Hr sounds like my Daddy. Both my parents are gone now, but it was such a privilege to care for them like they had cared for me. Your folks are wonderful people and you are a wonderful daughter. I'm sure they are so very proud of the daughter they raised so well.

@BecomingaFarmGirl 2 года назад

Hi Gail! You said it exactly--after all our parents have done, I too, find it a privilege to care for them. I can't imagine where I'd be without those two. Im so glad that you also experienced a close relationship with your parents. Thank you for the kind words!

@OrganicMommaGA Год назад

Oh girl! Thank you for sharing your story and your parents with us! I am a new subsciber, thanks to Fermented February 2023, and feel so connected through your videos. I feel like your Mom did so well, closed captioning was not even needed. I know how difficult and exhausting it can be to sound clear when you have challenges, as I have witnessed family and family friends who suffered strokes that affected their speech in different ways. And a bonus! LOL We have the exact same expandable/collapsible strainer. I love how it fits so easily over the sink for straining pasta or beans.

@TheRoadprincess 3 месяца назад

I love your mom story. And I loved seeing your mom. Sure, she has health challenges, but look how healthy she looks! Look at her beautiful skin! I know that is due to the healthy food she gets!

Your story is so much like mine. I can and prepare foods for my parents due to age and their individual health issues. It has been a game changer for me and them. I am now passing it in to my daughter and granddaughter. We live I. The country and have a garden so they will Get plenty of practice this summer

@countycalling Год назад

Oh baby girl, I so understand your message about your Mother, I’m older, so your love and beautiful is so respected. My husband is now 74, he has stage 4 kidney cancer, a collapsing spine from treatment, he most often can’t eat, much like your explanation of your mom. I took up canning because of him. It allows him to be able to eat a pork chop still. I can a pork chop with garlic and mushroom gravy ( with clear jell so it’s approved) he loves it. God love you, please hug your Mom for me

Hello Esther! I pray that you make fully recovery, and, continue to rest as much as possible! I am so delighted to hear that my videos have been an enjoyable distraction as you recover. This video was deeply personal, and I have no idea the reaction it would receive. What started as a hobby has become so much more and one of the most practical life skills I've learned.

Thank you so much for sharing your mother's story. I had no problem understanding everything she was saying. Your parents are so dear. I also want to thank you for deciding to make your RU-vid channel. You are such a blessing. I wish you were my neighbor.

Hello Martha! Your comment is too sweet. Honey, if we were neighbors we'd be cooking, canning and enjoying one another's company 24/7! My mom stays diligent with her speech therapy and gives herself breaks throughout the day. While I initially started canning out of curiosity/hobby its a skill that's become so much more. Thank you for watching!

Amazing story!!! What you have done for your family is just great!!!! What a good daughter you are!!!!

@denise3574 Год назад

Cassandra, you have inspired me to bring out the canner that sat down in my basement for two years and get busy! I was not one to can either but found it to be rewarding and practical. Thank you and your family for sharing your life stories. You are so real and personable. It was such a blessing to hear that your mom could eat the foods that God placed in your heart to learn to make. I have already tried some of the recipes you share on your channel and look forward to trying more. I haven't tried canning meat yet but am looking for to it. Thank you and God bless

Girl! You are my new spirit animal! Yes, this is my life - city girl looking to make the same changes. Did the coupons have victory receipts! Did freezing. Lost space. Inherited grandma's book. Knew nothing.Learned to make bread in 2020. Lost mom. Currently learning all of the Lost family techniques and preparing to purchase my 1st pressure canner and a freeze dryer. And DEVOURING YOUR VIDEOS.

Hey my mother just recommended your channel to me and my wife. You are awesome. My wife and I just graduated culinary school last May, however we also pressure can, have a pretty big working pantry, and are raising quail. I would love to see how your quail are doing. We have been canning for about 3 years, but have not done the amount of variety that you have accomplished and thank you for inspiring me. We started raising quail back in April of last year and they are a blessing we have not purchased eggs since May. I don't know how far along you are in your quail journey but I highly recommend getting quail scissors for the eggs, the shell is pretty thick and when you use them it will be a lot and the scissors make for an easier process. Lastly, look into water glassing your eggs we still have eggs from July last year and it is a great way to preserve them for a long time. Thank you again for the inspiration.

Such a light✨Your family, mom, and dad are so blessed! Thanks to you!💖 I'm so inspired to start gardening and canning however small and grow from there! Such great and valuable information!

@debramede3735 Год назад

That was so awesome. God bless you all. Your mom isn't just amazing, but she is beautiful, just like her daughter. God bless you all. 🙏

Cassandra...oh my goodness! I got a few minutes tonight to do some "catch-up" on videos I was behind on watching, and this video floated to the top. I'm SOOOO glad it did!!! Thanks for sharing and risking being vulnerable. You and your parents touched me to the core!!! I have watched other of your videos, absolutely amazed at your energy. I don't know how you get so much done. I do can, but not on the level you do. My grandmothers both canned, but particularly my mother's mother. She kept an entire larder full of canned foods. When I was a little girl, my mom involved me in canning right beside her. It didn't matter that I was--in my mind now--too young to be canning/preserving..and she never involved my sisters, 2 and 7 years younger than me. However...I'm the only one who cans at all nowadays...because she involved me. This past year has been tough on me. I got Delta in September 2021, which caused my heart to go into A-Fib. I finally had a cardiac ablation in December 2021, which fixed the A-Fib...but I also had long Covid and a Vitamin D deficiency, which caused me to feel drained all the time. I think we finally got the various parts handled. Having my gallbladder out in August helped...and it turned out that that was what the primary driver of my Vitamin D deficiency was. You need a functioning gallbladder to absorb fat-soluable vitamins. At any rate...I'm finally coming out of that dark abyss, and plan to start canning all the things I've got in my freezer...plus a bunch of apples straight from the tree...and looking forward to it!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!

Oh my goodness! I can't tell you how much this video blessed me! I just found your channel the other day and it must have been God that led me to you. Thank you for sharing your lovely parents with us. I actually just started canning & preserving early last year and I LOVE it! I only wish I would have started years ago.

@yellownightjar Год назад

Wow wow wow I would never have thought about canning bringing this much delight to such a need.

@chelseal654 Год назад

I’ve never canned solo before this year, but now that I finally a kitchen that I can work in I’m going to jump in! I grew up canning so thankfully I have some skills 😊

Hello TACbaha! HIS grace has been sufficient even in hard times! Even in sadness I still have praise on my lips because HE prepared me (unknowingly) to help in a much more meaningful way. Yes-family is everything to me, and, after meeting so many gentle spirits here on YT, I felt comfortable to share the truer purpose behind why/where my enthusiasm for canning comes from! Blessing to you and yours!

@BecomingaFarmGirl 2 года назад

Awww, Tammy! This is so sweet! I appreciate you for sharing this. My folks have done so much for me over the years that I truly see canning for them as just a portion of the "work" they've put into me. While I couldn't have anticipated canning would become such a huge lifestyle change for us, I'm so glad I learned the skill.

@carolyncatto8716 2 года назад

Wow, I love what you do! thank you so much ! I have learned so much from you on the "small scale canner" and working woman. You make me laugh and now cry! But your love just comes out so well for your family and what you put your mind too. Keep being you! and thank you so much for sharing your work and stories! When I first heard your videos ... I thought, Dang she will have her own show on TV soon. You are that good!!! I have visited your videos several times for repeat info. Thank you!

@schimmer6351 8 месяцев назад

I'm fairly new to your channel and am finding inspiration in every episode! I've done some water bath canning but so very scared to pressure can. However THIS EPISODE made me cry and put me over the edge that I absolutely MUST TRY!! My Mom lives local to me and cannot cook for herself. She would greatly benefit from my efforts so I'm going to get the tools I need and try!! Thank you for being YOU and sharing your journey that so many others relate to.

@vintagemoss9578 Год назад

When I lived in Southern Ontario a few years back it was a record hot summer and it was crazy hot. The grid collapsed because of the air conditioning use. All of southern Ontario and Norther New York was down. No electricity for dayssssssss. I lost a freezer full of meat and vowed that would never happen again. I went back to canning and drying my food storage and not relying on electricity. We also have a generator now too. You do what you have to do. Love your channel!

@heatherlawless5824 Год назад

You are truly an inspiration to those of us just starting out. I didn't know about you until a mention in RoseRedHomestead as someone she will check out because others recommend you. It's great to see how you use the space you have for food storage. That's my project in January . Thank you for encouraging me to keep on!

@tamaragalvan7217 Год назад

Your channel has been so empowering. My hubby bought me a pressure canner this year - though I’m nervous to use it on our electric glass top range. But with a friend, I have taken the first steps and started canning tomatoes. Your videos help keep me looking forward to my next steps. Thank You for all that you share.

@myhappyplace7861 Год назад

Oh, what a sweetheart! You and your parents! I know your parents are so proud of you. And being able to help your mom in such a tangible way, has got to be so fulfilling for you. Taught myself to can back in the 1990’s in my 20’s. It was such a blessing when hurricane katrina came through. We lost all of our cold storage foods. But made it with canned goods until we could get out and temporarily relocate. Gives a sense of security for sure. Rock on!
