Ruthann, please don’t ever make your videos “professional”. One of the things I enjoy about your presentations are the authentic press. You live like I do, in an imperfect world. I love your kitchen, the angels, your family, the reality of everything, and the normal-ness of it all. Thank you for blessing me with your sweet corn day. Today is my sweet corn day, but, alas, I work alone with memories….my family too far away to participate. ❤️❤️

When your baby boy says “this is my favorite day!” My mama heart just melted.

I love how the kids all have chores and no one is fussing about doing them. Good job parents!!!❤

The way you balance work and play for your children is amazing…. You are a wonderful mother ! Your kids are so fortunate ❤

I grew up in Iowa and never realized how wonderful Iowa sweet corn was until I moved to Texas. Now, every summer I drive 12 hours back to visit my aunt and cousins and stock up on sweet corn. I can some, freeze some, and eat as much as my stomach will allow! There is no better corn on planet earth than Iowa sweet corn! 🌽

Ruthanne, I'm a senior lady who lives in an apartment, so I no longer have the yard and kitchen space to do what I used to do my husband had raised beds for vegetables and we loved showing our grandson how to plant and harvest. I have such a rush of memories when I watch your videos. My grandson is now 22 and plant raised beds in his backyard. Thank you for sharing your family life and knowledge of gardening. God bless your family abundantly ❤

Ruth Ann, I ❤your video! With our world/country in upheaval, the simplicity of preserving your harvests, is priceless. And Kendrick falling asleep in the rocker, was priceless. Bless you all.

This is the way all children should be raised. Great job.

You are raising some fine young people. I’m processing corn and will carry these lessons forward. Thank you and God bless.

Love your videos. I don't care about the angles in your kitchen. Your sunny disposition and knowledge are all that matters. That grandbaby is adorable!

[shirleysunshine]

That kitten drinking that milk is the cutest thing I have seen in a long time. How sweet!

[wandapelletier]

Yes, please don’t be pressured into changing. I so much appreciate the down home look.

Today’s video has me remembering my great grandmother. Really miss her and cherish the times we ‘had’ to work with her in the garden and kitchen.

I've been going through REALLY hard times the last few years, and a month ago, things got worse. Then I discovered your videos, and I have found that they really, really help me relax me and let go of the hard stuff. I enjoy seeing the real life of what you do! I made your egg noodles, and then I showed my dad how to make them. :)

Good morning Ruth Ann, so glad I found your channel. Love watching your videos, you are so knowledgeable, God has definitely blessed you with an awesome gift.. homesteading is an awesome gift, hard work but so rewarding. Love you keep your kids involved in the homesteading factor and Elvin helps out when not working. What type work does he do, seems he has long hours but always lends a hand where needed when home. Keep doing what you do, we learn, love and can't wait for your book. Blessings to you and your family.

Corn day for us was a whole family affair. Aunt Estelle, aunt Agnes us girls and mom and dad. Tomato day was the same. Sitting under the porch, breeze blowing and it was such a fun memory this morning, thank you.

[rosiesgrandma]

Please your videos are perfect your quiet demeanor and the way you compose yourself to explain to those that have been critical is exemplary. Oh please oh please do not change anything about your videos they are absolutely wholesome truthful and they are held honestly to whom you are and that is an extremely special person that I would give anything to come and bump every day with you and share and chores.

[villagesteader]

Thank you for sharing your homestead wisdom with us, it is priceless. Words alone can’t express how much emotion your sweet corn day brought up for me. We had days like this at my house as a young woman but those days are long gone, and now I am my Mom’s caregiver…
Thank you!♥️👍🙏🤔

I was taught to WALK to the corn but RUN back with it. I love the way you share the work with the whole family.. Nobody gets too tired that way
