    Hi friends! I'm Jennifer, a fifty-something wife and mother of 7 children ages 10 - 26. We are Catholic. We homeschool. We cook from scratch. We farm cranberries. We drink coffee. We advocate for Down syndrome awareness. We are loud. We are chaotic.
    Here I'll share vlogs about all these things, what I'm doing that works and what I've tried but didn't work. I hope to encourage you in your journey through motherhood, homeschooling, learning to cook, and growing in your faith through it all.

    You need a greenhouse so you can start your seeds early and get a longer growing season! I know we have quite a mild spring here in Missouri compared to yours but we can start planting around April here. Maybe you could plant seeds in Early March and put them in the greenhouse until the last frost.

    Warren's comment about hoping we don't go to hell made me laugh. I always joke that I'd be shoveling coal on the fire because I'm always cold. LOL Funny, not funny I guess...
    We did similar with bringing in the last of the garden. I pulled all of the corn (we had crow trouble, then ground hogs....so our corn was very late after replanting time and time again....) and we froze some and then made corn cob jelly. We brought in the last of the watermelons and cantaloupes and again, like you, ours did well but came on late. Anyone want watermelon for Halloween? lol
    Love your videos! God bless.

  • @susiescofield490
    @susiescofield490 11 месяцев назад

    I have learned so much about cranberries and all the steps involved in growing them from your videos. I have a new appreciation for cranberries now. As to your tough green beans with strings, it probably was an older variety. In fact some people here in the South refer to them as string beans. When I saw you in a previous video using a knife to cut the ends off, I was surprised as we snap the ends off. If there is a string, you pull it off when you snap the end. Also some of the older varieties get tough when they are on the vine too long. I only have a small backyard garden, but when green beans are coming in I pick them everyday as we prefer young tender beans. As I am discussing regional differences, I have never seen anyone leave that much of the corn “connector” on the ear before. We cut any excess off and use corn holders after it is boiled, roasted, grilled, etc. How do you freeze it with that excess sticking out? Have a good week.
