Use that excess cowboy candy to barter for pickles from another home pickle maker.
If I wasnt that far away I would barter these for sure!!!
I want to say a big thank you for the grace and thoughtfulness of all your videos. My canning efforts started in my 60's after watching hundreds of canning programs, your advice and gentle approach has given me much of my confidence to begin my journey of growing food and storing it a cupboard. This still amazes me, that I can grow something and use it months later. It has changed the way I prepare meals and given me the courage to grow more each year. Thank you.
Ah Ha. I got ya beat. I started canning a couple years ago. I'm now in my mid 70's. Rachel has been inspiring and a blessing to me.
Well done!
I’m glad to see there are other late bloomers. I started last year at age 69 and I’ve felt like I’m alone at this age.
Late bloomer here too. Started last year at 60
I started in my 60’s and had never canned before I have canned so much!
I'm 65 and just learning how to can.
I’m so happy to hear that you started canning in your 40s! I often feel bad that I didn’t learn sooner. But I just didn’t have the capacity when my kids were little. So I started learning in the past few years and now at 46, I am obsessed 😊. Last summer I was thrilled to count over 400 jars of food canned by me! Thanks for all of the beautiful and inspiring videos!
Gardening and preserving it is my peaceful time. It's a lot of work but i so enjoy it. I wish my children shared this love. I would feel better about tough times for them if they did.
Cowboy candy recipe you will love! 16 oz cream cheese softened, 16 oz sour cream. 1 pint cowboy candy, 1 -2 cups shredded cheese, and 1 cup chopped cooked bacon. Mix well . Use as chip dip, spread in breakfast burritos, sandwich spread cracker topper omgosh the options are endless. U will quickly find u didn't can five years worth. Try it on a bagel ..... Yummmmm!
That sounds delicious!
I have taught myself how much is needed to not only feed a family of 4, but also allow my 4 adult daughters to be able to come shop in my preservation pantry if needed during hard financial times.
Oh My Racheal you have a ton of food left! You could take another year off with all you have left! Well maybe not you do have to go to some kind of harvest depending on how your garden grows! Great job!
Wow...what a difference!!! It's wonderful to see how much your hard work has paid off. Pantry looks great. It's so amazing to see what you have accomplished!!!!!
Rachel, I went into my Garden and harvest all my Dill today before the freeze is coming in.I got 3 cookie sheets with fresh dill I put them in the oven to dry on the lowest Temperature and the come out wonderful. Preserving my fresh herbs.
Thanks Rachel for Sharing 12-3-2023👍🏽👍🏽💕💕
I hope I can get one of these books soon. I have so much. Salsa, which the others will eat, but very little other Tomato products. My garden didn't do very well this year. But it's ok. I watch for deals. I'm not picky about organic or not. Just trying to stock up for now. Ip got tickled about your pickle dilemma. 2 Yeats ago, I had cakes coming out of my ears, I've got so many pickles and we don't seem to eat them much. My dulls are floppy, but I don't care, I just love the flavor. I have found that relish goes faster here, so from now on...
We got it all reorganized last week, so maybe I'll do better at planning next year. Can't have toomany garlic and onions, and the garlic never fails. It took me 3 weeks to process all of it this year! And if my onions don't bulb, I'll eat the tops. They're mostly for cooking anyway. Sorry, rambling. But thank you for writing a book like this. I'm saving this video, so I can order the book soon.
Our Mother canned from the garden Every year. She was always afraid there would be a year of failure in her garden. GOD bless
I had carrots that I didn’t care for and i mashed them up with potatoes like mashed potatoes. I can enjoy them now!
I love the carrots with honey and butter.😊
Purchased the planner to help you and help me...the Good Lord knows i have the passion to learn and to grow but its been an uphill battle. Thank you!
My garden didn’t do well do to my husbands massive heart attack. This was my 1st yr canning. So I do small batch canning and between canning dehydrating and freezing I did pretty good. All the small batch canning truly added up and I have an actual pantry built.
I am in my 40's and only started this....this is actually pretty encouraging! Thanks!
The first time I canned was when I watched your spaghetti/pizza sauce. I am so glad there was you on the internet to guide me thru the best tasting food i grew myself!
Thank you so so much
Great video. I would put some safety railings on the front of the shelves to prevent anything from getting knocked off the shelves. You never know when the cat's are going to jump up there and knock things around. Just an idea 😁👍
One day I’m going to run into you in the store and thank you in person! Because of you and watching your videos I made spaghetti sauce for the first time last year and it turned out great! I also made your ketchup and I’ll never go back to store bought. I made other things too from watching the videos, I don’t have much room to grow but I am satisfied with what I can.
Thank you for showing me this. Wish we didn't have that many food restrictions..nightshade are off our menu so it leaves me with limited options on canning things since legumes are also out....still... I could always try to trade..🤣🤣🤣🤣😊
Congratulations on your garden planner! Im very excited to check it out! I also bought a few to give as gifts this year to some new gardeners!
I loved this video--thank you for making it! I started canning in my 50s and my family always asks why I do it. It's hard at times to explain why. I've worked in a large corporate setting for nearly 38 years and in stressful, managerial positions. Canning to me is back to the basics, fun rather than stress, simple rather than complex, and my family loves what I can (especially the blueberry jam in the middle of February). You have inspired me to keep going--thank you!
Same situation and feeling for me!
I whole-heartedly agree!
I'm 50+ and I just started canning 2 weeks ago. I have watched dozens of videos. Sweet potatoes and beans are the first things I canned. I have been able to can collards chicken, pork, and apple pie fill and apple sauce and bone broths. My goal is to start a no till garden for next year. We are getting the ground ready for next season.
I am so glad you started! Food preservation is such a fulfilling activity!
I would love to hear about what your canning priorities will be when you start back up. Which things are MUST HAVE to get back on the shelf right away. Pickles I expect :)
I didn't start a full garden growing and canning until I retired 4 years ago so it's not too late! It's the single most satisfying skillset I've ever learned. 💚💚💚
💯
That is so funny! My husband wasn’t thrilled with the idea of cowboy candy, so I only canned 20 jars. Now…he is rationing it, it’s his favorite item!
I just paused this video and went right over to Amazon and purchased this guide/manual.
Thank you for creating it for us.
I am so excited to see this video! I am a year behind you. Not planting a garden this year. - except garlic.
Great job!
I am envious of your pantry! I didn't get to have a garden last year because I was moving. Now, I'm supposed to get approval from the HOA to put in raised beds. So, I'm going to use towers and grow bags on my patio!
I made ketchup with cherry tomatoes! I learned to can from the Ball Blue Book and my red plaid Better Homes and Garden cookbook! I made blackberry jam with berries I picked from a dirt road in Montana. We were living in a 10" x 14' camping trailer and carried water from a creek. If I can learn to can under those conditions, anyone can learn!
Your planner will make a great Christmas gift, to myself! 😂😍💛
Love your videos and the heart and soul you put into them. I have ordered your book and cant wait to use it here in New Brunswick Canada. Cheers Rachel
I want you to know how encouraging your videos have been to me over the past few years. We live on a .10 acre urban homestead. When i went back to gardening, after leaving the office and long commute, I discovered your channel. Since then our two neglected 20 foot beds have come back to life! We added 7 more beds on the side of our house with the death of a huge maple tree. I’ve been canning, freezing and sharing. Learning about soil management from the No Till Growers channel also. It’s been a wonderful, albeit tiring journey. Thank you for what you do!
Come to find out my ma's side would can but I never knew this. I never canned up until about 3 yrs ago and I am in mid-50's. I have 8 raised beds, and this year was our most successful year. I am venturing into soups etc. to preserve and not so much in freezing things (we have 2 small fridge freezers that get full quite quickly!). It's just me and my partner, so we don't really can an overabundance of things, but enough for us to keep us in fresh food for at least the year or longer on some items. I am glad to see that you too, have canned something that wasn't a big hit and now will dial it back on a few things. We have done the same thing. I love your approach to life and all things. I am glad to have stumbled onto your channel a couple years ago!
Great video, Rachel ❤🙏🏽
Love it! I took up canning after I took up raised bed gardening during my 40's as well. Added a freeze dryer this year. Now I want infused oils and more tea stuff too. I found out I am allergic to corn which is in about all processed food so it has been on like Donkey Kong to make it all work
I just love how you garden, when you showed the book you wrote on gardening I quickly ordered my copy. I cannot wait till it comes.
Thank you Rachel very nice ♥️♥️
It was a fantastic jalapeño year in 2023. I have pickled jalapeños, jalapeño relish, and yes cowboy candy…lots!! Some years you have an abundance of a particular vegetable. So you just put it up and say thank you. I’m with you I won’t need to can jalapeños this year. Just enough to eat. This next growing year I’m concentrating on tomatoes and green beans. Had a really bad harvest of those items. The grasshoppers took out my beans. Tomatoes just burned up.
Thank you, Rachel!!!! You are so wonderful to us!! ❤
Thank you!!! I just added your planner into my cart and will be placing that order as soon as I am done typing this comment. I too often feel bad that I didn’t start canning/gardening sooner. I am in my late 40’s and started canning 2 years ago. This year was my first in gardening and growing our own food. My husband has been doing it for YEARS and trusted me this year with it. It was quite nerve wracking but he was there by my side encouraging me and answering all of my questions. Oh, and also, I watched ALL of your seed starting/gardening videos. You were there too…by my side. My garden was so good to us this year. My husband says I can take over now 😊. I am pretty sure I will binge watch your videos again to give me a refresher. Almost forgot, I canned a lot of green beans this year. Other than using them for green bean casserole, what are other ways to incorporate them in our cooking? Again, thank you and your husband for your encouragement and inspiring all of us AND sharing your journey. ❤
I would love to see a weekly menu of how you use all of this.
I was waiting for this video and it didn't disappoint. Your book is beautiful! What an accomplishment!
Just wow. How wonderful of you to share all
Of this info that you worked so hard to calculate. I am jealous of your easy demeanor; I am a crazy woman and moving and talking quickly. I am 66 so I don’t see it ending soon but your videos calm me haha. Thanks again!
Congrats on your book!!!❤🎉
Rachel, you are my hero 🙂Can't wait to see your pantry in June, I hope you'll share a look. You are going to be crazy-canning in Summer 2024! Curious what you do with frozen cabbage. I'm a seasoned gardener and canner, but just ordered your garden planner!
Wow what a supply. I am in Michigan and we had our best crop this year.
Recently discovered your channel. Making my way through all the old videos. You are inspiring me! Just started my seed starts and I have never grown anything!!
All your hard work sure paid off. I grew up with a garden and my Mom canned so many things. I don't have a garden anymore, but I learned a lot on canning from her. I buy from our local farmers that do not spray their plants. I am happy to support them as they are local to my area. I have even started to teach some people that want to learn how to can that have gardens or just want to stock up good food for the winter. Even give some as gifts! I even tried horseradish this year. It's really good, and gave some as gifts to those that love it. Love watching you and always learning. I have watched you for a long time now, and always learn something. I think the most important thing is only can what you will eat. Yes, try new things that sound good to you, but if it doesn't work out don't do it again. I am always cooking new things, and that's half the fun of it.
This is great! Please do another update in the spring when you plant your garden!
there will likely be a LOT of videos in the garden next year ♥
Didn’t even finish watching. If YOUR selling a garden book, I’m in ! Couldn’t buy fast enough. Ugh and I hate to say this but thank you for putting on Amazon. Will be here Tuesday. (I know I know, shop local. But I live remote. So Amazon is easier sometimes ) bless you and your family. Thank you for being such an inspiration for gardeners, homesteaders, and herbalist alike ! ❤
Just ordered! I have always learned from you and Todd with regard to gardening and preserving. Keep sharing♥️
Thank you, Rachel. You and Todd are so enjoyable to watch. My husband and I always learn so much from you both. God bless you and yes, I bought the planner. I just have to support what you are doing and sharing.
I love this so much. It was a great Sabbath year!!! Next year your harvest will be blessed exceedingly! This was amazing and I love it.
What made the difference to the carrots you love? How did you can those please?
🎉 Congratulations on the book and thankyou for showing us latecomers to canning what's possible 😁
Just added this garden book to my Christmas wish list ❤
******Drawn to be Prepared, listening to your inner voice will get you started-JUST DO IT*******
wow - watching this in my 40s - so inspiring thank you
As you know Rachel, I got back into growing veggies a couple of years ago and I haven't stopped. I am having so much fun and also sorting my mental health out at the same time. Like Todd I love my fishing so catching, growing and preserving is necessary for me. I still have tomatoes in the freezer ready to cook up and I have my new batch growing right now!!
Therefore I have to get a wriggle on and use up the last of my harvest that's sitting in the freezer!! All good fun I have coming. Cheers and hope you and Todd are well. :)
For the two of us we are finding we don’t eat as much anymore. Then the frozen soup bricks and other frozen meals that are so handy really stretch the food. And we can only eat so many recipes with tomatoes.
I think our number of some plants will need adjusting and more concentration on the home orchard.
And onions, I think I can back down a hundred or so 😂 and pickup the sweet peppers.
I often wonder if the cashier at grocer thinks we don’t eat vegetables 😅.
Excited to read your guide!! Looking forward to 2024 with you both! 🙂
You must have been speaking to my heart today. The journal that you have created is exactly what I am looking for. I just ordered it and I can't wait to get it! You inspire me so much! Thank you for that! ❤Sam
I ordered your planner as my gift to myself. Thank you! I look forward to expanding my garden and building my sustainability and expand my preservation goals! You are inspiring!
You’re inspiring me to take some time off. It might be that year. I’ll have to buy your book.
I’d be interested to know which varieties of carrots you enjoy best and which you do not care for as much.
I’m so excited for a year in my garden planner, I just ordered mine 💕 I wasn’t able to have a garden this past year as I found out I have cancer and have been in treatment, I’m still battling but I am determined to have a garden this year and I want to be more intentional about what I’m going to plant and how I’m going to preserve it , some of which I have never grown before but I’m going to just dive in 😊 I love all your videos especially what’s for dinner when you are using from your pantry!!
I found your video on making refried beans and canning them. Thank you so much. Can’t wait to pop open a jar.
It is looking real good for a year of using your home preserved foods!
Great to hear you published! Congratulations! 🎉
Just put this book on my Christmas list! 🥰
You did a great job. I too let my garden lay fallow. I have filled up one bin 3 high of empty jars and one half full. I will do inventory before I decide what I will grow next season. I am only feeding 1 so it’s taking me longer. I know I need to can more broth or use all my veggie broth. I planned well too for not growing last season. It may let me focus on other things next season.
your giving your garden a rest is biblical 7 years just want to say I'm looking forward to seeing what next year brings 😊
Just ordered one for me and one for my niece. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
I couldn't get this book in my cart fast enough!! Love your channel...just a hint...how about a canning book of your tried and true recipes?
May one day
Love your videos! You mentioned the carrots you didn't like and the carrot you do like - what is different with the two? I am hoping to can carrots this coming year and I don't want to make a mistake and can carrots we don't like! Thanks!
I'm so excited about the garden planner! I just ordered it
Rachel, a book on top of everything else. It looks beautiful. I wish I could make use of it but I can’t garden any longer. Love your recipes though. Bet you’ll have a tremendous harvest next year because the Lord will honor your desire to do right. Maybe another 2 year pantry.
Very excited to order you garden journal. Would love to see you print your canning cookbook.
Thank you so much!!! This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. My goal for this year is to start documenting my homestead journey. Thank you❤️ Blessing to both of you 🥰
Christmas gift to me. Garden Journal 💕thanks. Beautiful Pantry
I'll have to go back and watch your womans tea blend, sounds lovely. We moved to a little house to give the kids the big farmhouse this year so I had a gap year too(not on purpose like you but it happened). I just ordered a brand new canner from ForJars and I'm so excited! Got my lids ordered on the black friday sales and I'm ready to get busy this coming year. I sure hope my new no till garden is set up and bursting this coming year. We're in Alberta and my son is going to drive the tractor into the space to spread the straw on top so we're waiting till the ground freezes hard. It's a really weird winter this year. We still have bare ground and temps around freezing so no movement yet.
Just got my planner in the mail. Thank you! Can't wait to use it. ❤
congratulations on the
book and for being such a good planner
with your canning
Blitz the cowboy candy and brush it on bacon to make candied bacon... its SO GOOD
OMGOSH Rachel. I love this book! Congratulations. You made Christmas shopping on a tight budget easier. God Bless.
Very excited to see your garden planner! I'm aiming for 2024 to be a year of organization, so this can be another step in that process!
I am so excited for your Planner I ordered it to see if that can help me. What you shared really encouraged me. So I say thank you❤ This year I struggled but I'm hoping next year I can get on track better. I just have to ignore the naysayers and stay focused. I have so many people around saying just go by it. Don't try to grow it, Don't try to forge it. But I feel better when I eat better. And i'm gonna keep trying to figure out I can do little-by-little even at 65.
What will they say when there isn’t any to buy or it’s too expensive? You go!
Congratulations on your planner
I remember watching the first few videos you did about letting your gardens observe the Sabbath. I admired your desire to do it. And as this year has progressed I spent some time in prayer to consider it for our gardens as well. I’m happy to say my hubby has agreed, well, partially. We have 14 raised beds and they weren’t all started the same year. So half of the beds will observe the Sabbath this next year. But it’s a start!
How do you can brussel sprouts? Pickled? I love them and would love trying that
W00T! Just got mine in the mail. Thank you Rachel and Todd for all your hard work. You’ve both been a blessing to many of us. 🥰♥️
Thank you and congratulations on your garden journal publication. Thank you also for making it affordable. This year was probably my largest canning year because we invested in a digital canner so that I could pressure can. Chicken was my first meat. I have learned so much from you and look forward to more. Thank you.
You seriously inspire me with my canning goals and I need to see all your 2024 canning ventures!
Congratulations!! I'm in my early 40's and we started 2 years ago. Your video had given me so much encouragement
Living vicariously threw your stock pile. I had a poor garden this year I didn't can anything.
I've ordered your Planner and know that this will be exactly what I've been looking for. And because it comes from one of my FAVE RUclipsrs who is soooo 'real' makes it all the more special.
