So many "don't waste your produce" videos just focus on how to preserve after picking (pickling, freezing, etc) but are too narrow and neglect everything else, so i really appreciate how your video focuses on broader strategy and mindset!

@leigh2e200 Год назад

Our garden is growing! I've got a 9 year old and a 12 year old with me this year - they've never gardened before and you have never seen people more excited over green beans from seed.

Anne, I love your videos so much. As an Adhd’r time and organisation is a big concern with taking on projects and I love the way not only is your content about gardening and harvesting, but it’s also about how you can work it into your schedule. I love your spirit and I just enjoy your content so much 🙏

@trimbaker1893 Год назад

when I was a kid, we had a root cellar. when we picked cabbages, we would pull them up with the roots still on them. If you hang cabbages by the root in the cellar, they keep for months and months. ( that was back in central ohio)

@tonywhitley6929 Год назад

This is great content. As a strawberry junkie, I would also say that planting the right varieties of strawberries impacts the harvest and storing process. Everbearing vs. June-bearing is a basic consideration, but there are dozens of variations within those classifications. Deciding if you have time in the summer for a short but heavy harvest and canning process or need the slower but more constant "eat as your pick lifestyle can be supported by starting with the right berries.

@ArtByFameli 3 месяца назад

I'm glad you made this video. I'm getting back into growing food this year after a 4 year pause. I had never grown for long term storage, but I'm scaling things up this year just for that reason and am feeling intimidated lol. I'm going to have to watch your food prep videos. Only been following you a few days but the algorithm has been feeding me your videos for a year. Side note. You remind me SO much of my mom when she was younger. And we are also from washington state (just south of Seattle). She's no longer with us... sometimes I get a little emotional watching your videos because you really are that similar. Not a bad thing, just wanted to share that you remind me of my most favorite person in the whole world ❤

I have gardened 50 years and just learned about the curlicues. Here is my tip for you. Herbs can be chopped and mixed with salt to make herbs sallee. Stored in the fridge in a jar or root cellar, it will give you fresh herb floor. My French Canadian neighbor shared this with me.

@Rosie_The_Border_Collie Год назад

I would highly recommend to blanche your veggies before freezing. Its a technique used in French kitchen. It makes the color and flavor of the vegies come out beautifully and gives them a really nice crisp. Just boil in a big pot plenty of water with some salt. When the water boils well, drop in your veggies. The water will stop boiling cause of the colder vegies. Ones the water boils again (one minute max) immediately turn of the fire, take out the vegies and drop them in a big bucket of ice water. When the vegies are fully cooled you can freeze them. I like to freeze them separately, by placing them in the freezer on a large plastic tray barely touching each other. Ones completely frozen, you can store them in containers or bags. This way you can easily grab just a hand full of frozen vegies, throw them in a hot pan with butter/olive oil, pepper&salt (classic they would add some sugar for a nice shine, but i am not really fan of it) Or just throw them in any dish you are making where needed. Thx for the great video !

@saminairfan45 10 месяцев назад

So you know what veggies blanch well? I never done blanching and don’t buy frozen stuff often

@lisaconnor9655 2 месяца назад

You can cut out the part on the tray if you put them in the bag or container you're using, throw it in the freezer. Go back 1 hour later and give everything a good shake. They will freeze separately after that and you can grab what you need when you need it 😊 and any leafy veggies or leftover salad stuff like that you can throw a paper towel in with it and it will extend life double sometimes triple. I will make a big salad and fold a paper towel put it on top and close it up. That salad is just as good on day 4 as on day 1. My grandmother in law taught me that 30 years ago and it works.

@thomaslawson4253 7 месяцев назад

i freeze a lote of berries. it is critical that you cut them up while frozen and thaw quickly in a warm steel cut oatmeal. if you do not believe me freeze 2 apricot .place one on the counter and it will soon turn brown. slice up the the other frozen one and place in warm oatmeal. it will say sweet and bright orange.

@maritzacruzplantingwithsalsa 3 месяца назад

I am so happy I saw this video. I have cilantro and basil and parsley and all types of lettuce that is constant struggle to keep up with since its only the two of us eating. I do give away a lot of my harvest but I would cut it all back down and the find myself not needing all that I harvested and thank God I have greedy dogs that love lettuce but they won't eat the cilantro. So this is awesome. I will try this method of adding them to water and then placing it in the fridge.

Great video, one idea for a preserve topic. Which preservation method is best for specific veggies and fruit. Like is regular freezing of broccoli better than dehydration or freeze dried. Because I know frozen broccoli becomes soggy to quickly & easily. Not sure on the freeze dried, I've had dehydrated in those powder soup mix. To me that is worse than plain freezing. Never had pickled or fermented 🤔

@imafan26 Месяц назад

Yeah, gardens actually cost money to grow, so you don't want to waste anything. I still have extras that end up feeding the worms. You have to figure out how much you can eat, how much to succession plant, and of course plant what you like to eat. I do grow and eat chard. I did not like the "dlirt" taste, but my friend told me not to eat the stems and it is a lot better that way Herbs are the things I get the most use out of since, most of my herbs are perennial and don't expire in the garden. Except cilantro. but I don't plant that much of it because well it is feast or famine and it does not keep well. I found out I can blanch and freeze beans and peppers. If you can find ways to preserve your excess harvest then it is worthwhile. My clean garden waste feeds my worms. I save seeds from some of my plants, because seeds are expensive I also take my extra seedlings to plant shares so they don't go to waste and sometimes I can find some things that I don't have and it doesn't cost me anything except some of my time and a little gas to get there and back.

Great one as always. A question if I may - how do you grow your okra, season soil type, watering etc. please. I'm in Western Cape, South Africa.

@ayeshajacobs4374 9 месяцев назад

I'm also from the western cape but, staying in India now. We're growing okra now. It's end of the rainy season, not too hot and not too cold. Well drained slightly clay soil here.

@brandynash1409 3 месяца назад

We grow a lot of okra here in south Arkansas. Many different soil types in our area. From red clay, to sand, to normal dirt. You never find a mix of the 3 though. We just plant, let the spring rain take care of the watering. Same for cowpeas. It doesn’t rain much in the summer. Okra and peas love HOT weather. I’m sure they would like more water, but do just fine in our hot dry summers. It may only rain twice a month in July and August. One summer it didn’t rain for 4 months. There was no hay to cut, but people had okra and peas. When I say dry summer, I just mean little rain. It’s ALWAYS very very humid.

@xoxo2008oxox Год назад

How about a subject on a easy database for harvesting or app that you can add seed info, planting date/harvest time and crop layout?

@AnneofAllTrades Год назад

I’m sure there are tons of those around, but I’m actively trying to distance myself from screens, especially when it comes to farm stuff. I’m a technological dummy and fully intend to keep it so ;)

@sdspivey Год назад

If you follow the principles of "just in time" planting, you would plant one or two plants X-days before you are going to use it. Then that plant will ripen just as you want it and you need no storage. Refrigerator losses may be the worst food waster in the modern kitchen. Example, if you want 3 carrots each for 2 people each day, and it takes ~60 days to mature, then you plant 6 carrots each day, 2 months in advance. Obviously, it won't work for everything, corn, strawberries, heads of lettuce.
