Hello I am am an Older gentleman Farm born and raised. My mother was an avid canner and as you have said many times on your videos a Rebel Canner although the term didn’t exist at that time. We the kids would always help at harvest time and would do allot of the prepping work and that is how I learned to Can and do it the same Today! Anyway love your enthusiasm and your energy in bringing the Old ways back in your Videos.

Sweetie, don't ever apologize for sharing from a Christian's heart. We as Christians need to share our love with each other. You are sharing your love language of gifts of (canning ) with us. Thank you for teaching us the Amish way of water bath canning. Love your videos and love you ❤😊

I fully agree. I was pretty young when my Mennonite grandmothers were too old to teach me to can. So having a Mennonite mother in law to help get me started 7years ago, was such a blessing. Not only was it touching to have her teach me, I feel like I’m carrying the family tradition, that my mom never took interest in. God’s paths are never wrong, we sometimes go through tough times, just to prepare us for who God is shaping us to be. I’d be lost without His guidance and love and strength and grace.

Leilani it’s worth repeating, you are so inspirational to me. I’m 55, mother of 7, and was definitely born for this type of skill, but never exposed to it growing up. My great grandmother on my dads side was a huge influence on me, but sadly I didn’t grow up with her due to a divorce. Two years ago I got chickens, and this past spring I planted my first garden. I just started canning and it is so rewarding. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Lastly, and please don’t anyone take offense, it’s so awesome to see a fellow Latina teaching these skills. There aren’t many Latino homesteading/canning channels. Unless I’m missing them 🤷🏻‍♀️

I just sat down from prepping food for my new dehydrator. It’s a Septree off of Amazon…..I love it’s all metal no plastic and has 10 trays. It’s square so easy to tear off parchment paper and put on the shelves.
I started watching your site because of Rachel from 1870 Farmhouse saying what a joy you are….You are the daughter with me talking to me as I work in the kitchen….I have four daughters and a daughter in law…..also many granddaughters and NO one is interested in the old time cooking techniques…..🥲They’re obsessed with coffee from the coffee shops, organic smoothies and food from a organic restaurant.
When I tell them how I make my own powders, dehydrated foods, breads and I make tinctures and I can but they say “ they don’t have time” it’s more important to go out to lunch, work out at the gym and socialize .
I feel so alone. I’m 75 and my years to be around are shortening. I sew, crochet, woodwork, garden, fish and camp. I have a art studio and a pottery studio.
I live 40 minutes from most of them but it’s too far but if I would move closer to them then I’d see them more….not happening…..I have 31 acres of freedom. I make things from the woods like pine wreaths with pine cones and handmade ornaments…by myself….

So I turn your channel on and I pretend you are working in my kitchen and talking to me…..my husband is at work but when he comes home from building log homes at a million dollars plus that people are buying to get out of the city, he’s too tired and doesn’t share a lot of what I do….he thinks I’ve over prepped in canning and dehydrating but a year or so from now all that is what we will have to sustain us I’m sure.
Thank you, and I really enjoyed your wing it blog…it’s natural and your joy emits through the many miles to here in Ohio.😍🧑🏻‍🍳

I'm sorry I missed this live, but I try to catch up whenever I can! Sometimes I forget that I'm 67 and I do things that leave me exhausted! and forget to turn on the internet! To my mind, you're a superwoman. Never think you're chaotic! You're doing your best to attend to your family and to us, for which we are grateful! In my experience, people who have a perfectly tidy house, are those who only think of themselves and only focus on their house. People like you are treasures who are willing to make some sacrifices for the benefit of others. May God bless you always and remember that you "can do all things through Christ who strengthens"you. We love you, Guapa.

You do a great job on the videos, you genuine and it shows. Don’t be so worried about the small things. Of people don’t like things that’s their problem.. your being a great blessing to others!

Plant those root ends and they will GROW!!

I grew up with a Mom who hot water bath canned EVERYTHING. Mom passed in a car accident 44 years ago. I haven't canned since, until last year, my daughter wanted to learn to can. Easing in, we started with Jellies...

[Carol]

My grandmother taught me to can food. She taught pressure canning and water bath canning. My family didn't know store bought breads, jams and jellies, nut butters, fruits. Pickles etc etc. Later I started making my own cheeses, sausage. I mostly stopped with the empty nest syndrome. With what is going on lately, I started canning snd dehydrating again

[lisahodnett]

You are such a genuine, beautiful soul. I am so happy I found your channel.

[gretchenarrant]

You have a great channel. Rachel loves your channel too. Your videos are easy to follow. And you're a fun person. I look fidward to each new video. Don't let ANYONE try to discourage you. You just present alternatives and that's great. If we only had cherry jello, we'd get tired of it...right. you keep doing as you are . God bkess!!🥰🙏💖

Having 4 son’s and a husband and hating to decide what we were going to be eating every day. I decided we would sit down with the calendar every Sunday. They would then take it in turns to decide what we would eat each day of the week. That way everyone had their chosen meal it was never my fault if there was something that was not a favourite and I was happy because I never had to decide what was going to be eaten. This system worked very well for us for many years.

I'm so sad I missed this. Hope to catch another live stream. It would be so cool to possibly do a Can-along. I know sounds crazy. Love canning and you have been the one that has taught me and inspired me to set the fear aside and man on man I have been really diving head first and heading all of your advice and guidance. You are a great teacher and mentor. Thank you so very much.

Great job doing a live! Your very relatable to my life scene right now, learning and just “make it make” as you’d say. May I suggest saving all your veggies scraps in a freezer bag and accumulating it for when you do your next batch of stock. Celery ends or limpy celery left in fridge drawer, carrot ends or peels, onion peels outer skins, garlic peels/ends, herb stems etc anything That is a scrap you’d otherwise compost and could use in the type of stock your choosing to make. I tend to freeze my chicken carcasses to save enough for a big batch of stock… and for when I feel like doing it 🥴
Save your hard earned cash 💝

[kathywarren]

You are such a genuine person. I’m sorry that someone said that. I’m 66 and I continue to learn from you. Love your channel.

[jonizabel]

As Jess Sowards of Roots & Refuge says, "Turn your waiting room into your classroom." I'm right there with ya, girl.

I, too, am a homesteader at heart, but we live with my widow MIL to make sure she is taken care of. It's a bigger sacrifice than most will ever understand for a wife and mother, but it is where the Lord has us until He is ready to move us to our own homestead.

[luciepaul]

I keep all my
Veggies scraps to put in my broths. As I peel carrots, celery, onions, I keep the ends and the peels and keep them in a ziplock bag in a freezer and add to it as I use veggies. When I make my stock I take out my bag of scraps. And that’s what I use. I never use fresh vegetables for broth or stock. I filter out my broth at the end and all the scraps used for my broth now go in my compost. No waste. Lol.

[tinabergen]

I came to your channel through the 1870 homestead!
Thank you for everything you are doing!
I grow up over seas and we water bathed everything!!!!

[hissimpleblessings]

Thank you so much for this today. I didn't catch you live but watched the replay while getting my granddaughter down for her nap. I've been struggling so much lately & watching your video brought me to tears. It was the first time in a long time I felt like I was listening to a friend. Thank you for being you. May your day be blessed.

[jenniferr]

I keep a baggy in the freezer and put clean tops, roots, skins in it. I actually ONLY put that in with the roti chicken carcass for stock. Free food!
