A 100+ year old friend taught me this recipe for my orchard trees. In gallon jugs prepared like yours, place 1 banana peel, 1/2 gallon water, 1/2 c sugar, and 1/2 c vinegar~works great!

Maxwell is wonderful with the animals. He is a sweet young man.

I loved that time of year when they (the cows) kicked up their heels once they were turned out to green pasture! Such joy!

I wish I had known this before my hundreds of peaches were ALL filled with worms. But maybe next year. I thank you ❤
Your channel is beyond awesome and amazing and so are you

I love your humbleness sharing we all have to learn from practicing. We all can’t be instant experts from reading one book or watching one video. Improving our skills is a life time job and you share that perfectly! ❤❤

Hello RuthAnn and sweet family! Excellent information for the fruit trees so many people can learn from. The recipe for the Codiling Moth that destroys fruit trees is a great organic way to control the reproduction and keep the fruit organic without spraying chemicals.

1 clear gallon milk jug that’s been cleaned out. Cut a window in the jug opposite of the handle high up and just below the shoulder of the jug.

1 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup blackstrap molasses
1/2 Teaspoon ammonia
2 cups water

Tie jugs as high as you can reach with a sturdy cloth like a t-shirt onto the limbs of the fruit trees.
Hang the traps before, during or after your fruit tree blooms. Leave traps to hang until you harvest the fruit. If the liquid in the jug dries out, just add more water to reactivate the ingredients again.

The ducklings are so cute and the boys are enjoying them and kittens too.
Spring is such a beautiful time with all the new babies on the farm and cattle are happy to have fresh grass to eat.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I hope you and your family have a blessed weekend!

Your flowering branches in the crock is lovely. So spring-like. This would make me smile with my heart each time I saw it.

God IS good! I am 75 years old and it is getting harder for me to work in my garden since I have back issues, but I’m still trying. I get such enjoyment out of watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing. You are such a blessing.

I always wondered how to trim fruit trees. The amount of knowledge you have is amazing. Teaching your children is so very important. Your giving them life-saving skills.

my favorite part is the cows running to pasture, especially jumping for joy!!

[VSFilly]

We buy our seedlings from a precious, joyous amish couple just down our road💚 and yes, God IS good. Always.

Another jam packed half hour full of little tidbits of knowledge! Thank you RuthAnn. And hearing you at the end brought me back to hearing my grandmother.... 60 years ago!

Ruth-Ann I don’t think you have any idea of the magnitude & helpful content your videos provide to so many people!! I love your recipes and especially your helpful advice on practical things a person needs to know to have a successful homestead. Yours is the first I’ve ever seen on an organic recipe for killing the moths. And also teaching how to prune fruit trees! This one video has made our year. We recently bought a home with a lot of sad looking fruit trees. We had a small harvest, but a lot of worms. Didn’t want to spray pesticides so was at a loss as what to do. So a huge thank you for giving us our answer!! We are looking forward to a better harvest this year now!! I’ve learned so much from you and that is saying something as I have quite a lot of knowledge. God bless you & your family! God is so good, ALL the time.

I love how loving your children are to the animals. They have such good hearts.

I was surprised to see you prune in the Spring! My dad always did pruning in the Fall so the sap would not be up in the tree! Perhaps our area or your area makes a difference. We live in Western North Carolina, but I would think your weather would be colder than ours. I so very much enjoy your videos. I'm 76 and have still learned so much from you! You are my favorite YouTube videos other than the preachers I watch!! How I wish I could go back and know what I do from you!! I love you and your family! So sweet!!

What a beautiful morning shot! God is so Good ❤️

I really enjoy your videos and even think of you as my new friend. It’s lovely how you can teach and mother simultaneously. You are blessed. Thank you for all you do to teach us the old ways and good things about homesteading. I’m a city girl and needed these videos more than most possibly. 😘
