Planting Old-Time Multiplying Onions & Loving the Seasons of Appalachia
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Come along as we get some work done in the wonderful airish fall weather that's moved into the mountains of Appalachia. We plant something I've always wanted to: old-time multiplying onions. They grow right through the winter allowing you to enjoy fresh green onions during the coldest months of the year.

Reading through the comments, it's clear that your viewers are going to miss your popsicle talks, Tipper. Coffee and hot chocolate have been suggested. Sitting by the woodstove would be the perfect place for this. In the cold of winter, I can't think of a cozier place!
Who would have known, a year ago, that Matt would become such an integral part of these videos. We've learned so much about both of you, as we watch you working together, but especially during your chats. It's very heartwarming to see your deep connection and it helps us understand how those two darling girls of yours turned out to be so special. You are rich, Tipper, to have a family filled with so much love!
Thank you Roland!! We appreciate your encouragement 😀
What a beautiful comment.
@@brandiegger8808 Thank you, Brandi.
Amen @Roland Pinette I echo your comment. 😇🙏🏻😇🙏🏻❤️👍🏻
@@homesteadingpastor Thank you brother Lon! I hope you have a wonderful day!
Matt is so chill. "I'm like a stray dog, I'll eat just about anything." Love it!
My husband is like Matt. He’s like a stray dog and can eat anything too.😀. He is so easy to cook for, will eat whatever I cook and never complains, and will settle for peanut butter and banana sandwich if I don’t feel like cooking. We are lucky to have husbands like that. Enjoyed the video and you have me hooked on the popsicles.
Amen @Shirley Frazier I’m pretty much like that as well. I Will settle for a peanut butter sandwich or any sandwich and don’t expect my bride to cook no big meal unless she’s just in a cookin mood. We can fend for ourselves when we need to. Thank you
Blessings to you guys. 😇😇🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻
My grandmother (1892-1989) from Southern Indiana grew multiplier onions but she called them potato onions. I guess they were called that because they multiplied like potatoes. She would gladly share them with friends but if they didn’t take care to keep some for the next season, she wouldn’t share them again. She thought folks should take care to plan ahead.
Thank you for sharing that 😀
My mom grows these too, and calls them tater onions😁
I recall a Lady and I think she lived near you all. she used to make her home cooking and one day she made onion pie. Never heard of it but it really looked good. She always referred to her husband as Mr......... will be home soon this is his portion. Do you know who I mean. She passed away about 3 years back. Also another lovely lady.
@@patrickrwhite8354 I'm sorry I don't know her.
Her name was Phyllis Stokes.
It’s so nice to hear Matt speak more. Like you, he’s a wealth of information and he has a great sense of humor. I love your channel ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love listening to you and Matt talk! It's that quiet, comfortable companionship from decades of association. Mr. Mertz and I do the same, and I cherish it. ❤
My mama said "the old gray mare she ain't what she used to be" many times at 95-98 years old. Many times she sang it. She still worked circles around me .
I always enjoy your popsicle eating talks. Y’all are too cute. Thanks for letting us listen in☺️
Thank you so much 🤗
My husband had been dating a year when Hugo came. We are in SC below Charlotte. We were hit bad, Sept 22, 1989. We had no power for over two weeks and people couldn’t get gas for a long time. We were just talking about it with this one. It was almost 33 years to the day and we were praying it didn’t do what Hugo did. Thankfully it didn’t.
I remember Hugo. Terrible storm !
That was a hard time! Thank you for watching 😀
Yes, here too. We were leaving out to FL. when the tail end of Hugo came through Abingdon Virginia!!
Do you can up fish?
@@mariaowen3425 you can if you want to. If you don't have a canning book the National Center for Home Food Preservation will provide you a safe canning recipe for free
Y'all are absolutely precious together... love to see folks who love each other... thanks for sharing our Appalachia ways 🤗❤️❤️
😊 thank you
Here in Montana, chill temps, sweater weather;. still water "blanket" my flamboyant Petunias. Out loud I sing-song, adding a cheery sounding prayer for Angel Hover Cover, every night. Years of seasonal flowers last into early November for me 💛So grateful I am!
Love that!
The look Matt gave you when you said it was light chore day was priceless. I got a good laugh. You accomplished quite and bit and as always, I enjoyed the popsicle break chat. Thanks!
I laughed my head off at the look Matt gave Tipper when she said that. He's a hoot!
I think it would be a great afternoon to sit and eat popsicles with this family and just chat. Real people.
I had to learn how to cook the hard way… my mother was a terrible cook and never attempted to show me how to do anything in the kitchen. The internet didn’t exist back then, so I had to learn on my own with cookbooks… I’m very thankful for your cooking/baking/canning videos… you’re a great teacher!
Thank you guys for inviting me into your yard. I so enjoyed listening to you and Matt chatting! 😊🇨🇦
Thanks for coming 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia Tipper, are there feral hogs in your area? I'll bet they're good eatin'; like Matt was saying, they've only ever eaten natural food.
@@johnnabuzby6103 There are some in this general area but none right here at our home 😀
I absolutely love you guys. I am not from this country, but I too grew up in the mountains and our family was very similar to your family. I get very nostalgic.
Thank you so much!! Glad we remind you of good memories 😀
So glad you are spared from the hurricane. This is my 5th hurricane in Central Florida but not ever known the monster like this. I was blessed and other than losing power for a day, the wind howled like a haunted house. My younger sister lives in Cape Coral and her husband passed away 10 days before the hurricane. God's dome of protection was around her sparing her from the flood waters but she has repairs to make. I have not heard from dear friends in Naples and I'm very concerned. Stranger than fiction, cold air came in behind the hurricane. That is a blessing when without power in Florida.
I'm glad you and your sister are okay!!
My mama & daddy always had multiplyer onions on the hill behind our house along with the garlic my daddy planted. My daddy loved the fresh green onion blades, & my mama loved the bulbs, so it worked out perfectly. The onions eventually played out over the years, but we still have tons of garlic all over the hill! I lost my precious daddy in 2015, but my mama has lived in that same little house for 51 years (this Dec. 10th). Your video has brought back a lot of memories for me. I’m going to see if I can find some multiplyer onions to plant next spring, up on the same hill my daddy planted them all those years ago! I love your popsicle talks with Matt & getting to feel like I am a part of your family & privy to your quiet little family chats. Thank you for sharing your home, your lives & your darlin’ daughters with us all. God bless you all.❤️
Katie and Corrie are going to cherish having "Popsicle Time" with you and Matt on video. I tried to get my grandma to write down things or even record herself telling some older stories of her and my grandfather but it just never happened before I lost her. Keep filming these precious times together.
My heart and prayers go to all who lost so much from Hurricane Ian. I h e friends whose roof was blown off and 5 feet of water through it. Many in their park lost their homes. I enjoy listening to you folks. I love the way you and Matt share and work together. ❤ Love being reminded of multiplier onions. We had them in Tennessee. We had a huge garden🙂🙂🙂❤ God bless you and yours. You have a beautiful family.❤🙏🙏❤
I enjoy the garden tours, popsicle eating and talking with Matt. It is relaxing. Thanks for sharing it with us. Dennis Morgan
I agree with Matt he needs a boat, I fished bass tournaments for several years, my last tournament was on lake hickory NC and was so blessed when I came out my sponsor gave me a boat and I still love getting out on the lakes and fishing. Thanks for taking the time and sharing your wonderful life and stories.
Wow that was great Frank! Matt used to fish local tournaments too 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia I'm sure he enjoyed it I certainly did
I look forward to watching yall sit in the garden and talk. So simple, but so refreshing and honest. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of it 😊
I would love to hear how you both meet. Please, could you tell us your love story. Just love the popsicle talks! You are so cute together. ☺❤
Thank you 😀 We will try to tell our story sometime 😀
I love the times you All have a popsicle & tell stories of life or About Anything!! I just realized on this video (after watching for a long time) how I'm so much older than EVERYONE.. GOD BLESS & When the SNOW BLOWS, I hope you all may have pie & ice cream indoors...and still share stories together...GOD BLESS, and to Granny too.
As you may know, going up in elevation, as in your mountains, is roughly the same as going north as the crow flies. The weather here in the Maryland piedmont this fall is been much cooler than normal also. We have not been below the mid forties yet, but the highs have been in the fifties and low sixties. We have been getting rain from the remnants of hurricane Ian since Friday night and more is expected tomorrow. I'm not complaining as we were quite dry this summer and need rain to pump up the water table. If you don't get adequate rain, you live in a desert. I'm like you, Miss Tipper, as I love the changes each new season brings.
I love the distinct seasons too.. Living just below Blowing Rock it's amazing the difference of landscape in the different seasons. Here it's been so green but soon I'll be able to see neighbors across the knob once the leaves fall. As for the leaves and fall, it's my favorite time of year! I love the beauty of the colors of the changing leaves and Appalachia is certainly the best place to see it's beauty. PS: Buy the boat! Life if short, enjoy what you love doing :)
Really love your videos, especially your and Matt’s popsicle breaks. It feels like sitting on the porch with neighbors.
Glad you like them!
I'm glad the hurricane did not cause damage in your area. My sister, her children, and her grandchildren live in central Florida. They had a few branches down but were safe. Thank God for that. I pray for those who lost everything.
I'm glad they were safe too! I'm praying for those who are in need 😀
I’ve never seen a kid that didn’t buck up at bedtime for fear of missing something, especially me when I was younger! I always gave my mom fits when she was trying to get me down!
What an enjoyable, respectful, couple/family.
I just love how you 2 just sit and ponder on what to say next. Then all of a sudden, you come up with a good topic to think about. 🤔. Keep up the hard work! Lost my husband in 2016. Watching you guys brings good memories of me and him. Love you. God bless you 🙏.
So glad you enjoy our talks. I'm sorry you lost him. That's the year Pap died.
How exciting! I hope they "go forth and multiply". Good luck. Trying new old things is so much fun!
I hope so too!
I remember older family members talking about Hurricane Hazel when I was a little girl. (I love all four seasons too.❤️)
Thank you Deborah 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia Tipper I laughed my head off at the look Matt gave you when you made the statement that it had been a light chore day. He's such a hoot, I'll bet there's never a dull moment with him around! My mama and daddy remember Hurricane Hazel. The worst hurricane in my memory, at least here in eastern NC, was Hurricane Florence; the downtown area of New Bern was under more than five feet of water from the storm surge and the Neuse and Trent Rivers here. I was not here for Hurricanes Dennis and Floyd, but daddy and mama's house was flooded from those two storms. Daddy had recently canceled his flood insurance since at the time their house was a foot too low [and very close to the Neuse River] to get good rates on flood insurance. Their house was elevated by FEMA and daddy said that decision saved his [butt] when Florence came through Bridgeton. The waters were just beginning to lap around his door jams, but didn't get into his house. I remember driving around after the worst of the hurricane had passed and I saw a sight that gave me goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes. I was driving westbound on Highway 70, headed back to my house, and saw blue and red police lights flashing on vehicles coming eastbound. There were only about six or so vehicles in that little convoy, but as they drew abreast of me, I saw that they were from the NYPD and I remember thinking that everything was going to be okay because the NYPD was coming to help us. We had others coming in larger numbers, electric company trucks, rescue divers from Ohio and who all knows where, but it was the sight of those NYPD vehicles [with a search and rescue boat] that got to me the most. I feel for those folks in Florida who were devastated by Hurricane Ian. We here in eastern Carolina got the winds and a lot of heavy rains, but we were blessed to be spared the full impact and destruction of Hurricane Ian.
@@johnnabuzby6103 Such a scary time! Amazing the destructive power in the storms.
@@CelebratingAppalachia It is amazing how much power is in those storms, and tornadoes as well.
I'm with you Matt. I like to smell the wood smoke come through the trees. To hear the wind from the north blowing and to smell the crisp cold of the snow when you go outside., I like the feeling when you first walk into a warm house after being out in the cold too.
I remember Hurricane Hugo making the skies up here in NY the most beautiful colors during the sunset... a bright coral orange and hints of purple with all those rolling clouds. It was awesome and powerful. A real sight to behold. I hadn't thought of that in years until Matt mentioned it. Hugs, friends.
In the late 50’s and 60’s we had killing frost for hog killing about the third weekend in October! Lately it is almost a month later!
I will go off to sleep but thanks for this video and the stories. God Bless you all and keep you safe and healthy.
Tipper is girls Irish name and I must say I can see the Irish people in your beautiful facial features Tipper.
You guys are not old at all. But if it makes you feel happy I am already 65. They say it is mandatory to become old and optional to become wise. LOL
“They taught me in the fire department to see in the dark…”. Man, that is great! Appreciate your channel very much.
I have a standing feud with a checker in our grocery store, she loves the heat and I agree with Matt. The more snow the better! Thanks for sharing.
I love your talks! You both seem to enjoy the time you have together. That’s a blessing! 😊
😊 thank you
Love watching you guys! Thank you so much for sharing your life and your wisdom! God Bless you and your family!
I could live a thousand years in September and October. Love the wind blowing. I do not like the heat. Love a fire going, all the winter things. I grew up on a farm and we had a lake beside our house mama and daddy would walk a few feet catch a bunch of bream and she'll crackers. They cooked them in a black pot in the yard. Mama would make slaw and hush puppies. Spoils you, fresh fish, the best!
I am in complete agreement with Matt.....I can't stand heat and humidity!! Bring on Fall and Winter!! YAY!!
Eureeka! you have answered a question about those onions that I could find no answer to! Thank you so much!
Hugo came through in September of 1989. Our daughter was born on the 17th and Hugo came through on the following Friday. My wife was supposed to come home from the hospital that day. I woke up to the sound of a tree limb hitting our deck. I drove to Forsyth hospital in Winston Salem during the storm. Interesting trip. But we all survived it.
Now that's a birth memory 😀
In 1967 an old man up the road gave me a bag of about 3 clumps of multiplier onions. They had red bottoms and he'd just dug 'em. He said, break them apart and plant in a row about 3=4 inches apart. Each bunch had about 10 or 20 onions in a clump. They looked like good sized shallots. He said don't do anything with them this year, but next year pull up every other one as you need onions. Each bulb will make multiples, and when you pull up a bunch, pull off one and plant it in the same hole. After about three years I never needed onions again. Sadly I lost the onions in the divorce. In the 7 years these onions never went to seed.
Hello Matt & Tipper, I'm like y'all just planted my multiplying onions, also planted turnips, collards and carrots 2 or 3 days ago. I pray that they will do good. I didn't plant a spring or summer garden due to the shemitah, that just ended about a week ago. just started getting a few cool mornings here in deep south Mississippi. yep had my share of hurricanes we lost our home in 2005 to Katrina. we lived on the bayou was tired of dealing with the water from the hurricanes and we move to higher ground. I like fishing to, we don't have the lovely streams like y'all do, but we have plenty rivers,creeks and the Ocean and bays. fresh water fishing and saltwater fishing. Enjoyed y'all's chat, blessings on your onions. God bless y'all
Thank you Mikel 😀
Y’all are the cutest and not old at all. ☺️ happy Sunday evening & thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much 🤗
We were living in the Charlotte area when Hugo came through . Trees down all over the place , power outage for nine days . Did you here that we had a tornado 🌪️ in Bryson this year . About two football fields from my home then it went into Deep Creek , and did some damage there . Neighbor above me lost power to his home , neighbor below me had tree damage. I guess you could say we were in the thick of it , and blessed that the Lord is with us. Hurricane Ian gave us enough rain to wet the ground, and knock the dust down .
It's a good feeling to receive the simple things from others that make a big difference in our lives. Enjoyed ! Thanks Tipper, and Matt . Have a sweet day 💗
Thank you Myrtha! I hadn't heard about that tornado-scary!
For me it was hurricane Andrew that affected us. I still remember the devastation. My heart hurts for everyone affected. Thanks again Tipper for sharing this wonderful chat.
Agree wholeheartedly with Matt. Love the Fall weather and Winter.
I just love y’all!!! Y’all make me homesick. Your place is beautiful and you’ve raised a beautiful family
I planted red Potato onions (allium cepa var.aggregatum in July (this is winter in Queensland, Australia). They are a perennial closly related to shallots but larger and more intensely flavoured. The club I purchased from said that each bulb produces 8-10 onions. I bought 6 bulbs (i was able to split some eniding up with 10 plants) for $9.93 Aus which is around $6.60 US. We can grow shallots and other onions most of the year. I save seed each year so next year I will be able to grow more. These take 6 months and will store 4-6 months. We are in the mountains west of Brisbane so are much ciiler than the coast. I am also love beans. I will end up planting between 15 and 20. I love listening to the stories you and Matt tell about Apalachia and your relatives. Your voices are so gentle and soothing to me.
I plant what some people call multiplying onions. I call them nest onions. I plant them about 5 inches apart in the spring, just poke them in the dirt. They develop 5 to 7 onions around the one planted. It looks like a birds nest. They're only about an inch in size but have great onion flavor.
We only got 3 inches of rain and some strong winds but thankfully no damage.
Love your talks. God has blessed you and Matt each with a loving spouse who is committed to each other.
Thank you Ron! Those onions sound great 😀
As you, I live (middle TN) where we have all four seasons! I'm so glad I do! Like Matt said smelling that chimney some is one of my favorite times of the year! Your talks are calming and entertaining! Hope the onions work out for you!
Thanks once again for sharing Tipper!
Thank you Sonja 😀
I live in Bogalusa, Louisiana and by the time the hurricanes make it up this far, they've lost a lot of their strength. Camille and Katrina made it here as deadly. I was here for Katrina and people who have never experienced that are shocked.
Camille hit us all the way up in Arkansas, it rained and rained, I’ll never forget that.
Hurricane Florence came through my hometown of New Bern, NC and downtown was flooded under more than five feet of water from the Neuse and Trent Rivers [they converge here at New Bern] and the storm surge from the hurricane. Worst hurricane I've ever seen in my 55 years here in eastern NC.
Enjoyed this entire video from start to finish as usual Miss Tipper!! Mr. Matt’s light chore look 👀 he gave you was priceless lol 😂 Y’all’s house looks great. Looks like y’all gonna have to switch over to a hot chocolate break by the fire soon instead of your popsicle break, but please don’t stop because we all love y’all’s chat times together. 👍🏻👍🏻 Y’all two are a model couple for everyone to learn from and look up to. We had to cut our way off of our street when hurricane Hugo hit our area here in South Carolina on September 22nd 1989 and we were without power for over 3 weeks. Robbie Lynn & I had been married a little over 2 years & 3 months. It was a rough one but we survived it by GOD’S GRACE & MERCY. We are praying for everyone that was in the path of Ian especially the state of Florida. 😇😇🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️ Thanks for sharing!!
3 weeks! That had to be tough! Thank you Pastor Lon 😀
You heard it here folks, Matt’s getting a boat to add fish to the food supply(maybe)🤣😊 special how those onions go so far back!! True heirlooms
😀 I love the history too 😀
That look after “light chore day” is priceless. I heard the cellophane rattling out of the camera’s view and was convinced y’all were going to be unwrapping Moon Pies. But that wouldn’t have been any good without an RC Cola.
Hi there Tipper and Matt, l really love your channel.
My Mother was country born,
She was a great one for putting up the tomatoes, beans and assorted stone fruits so we had plenty of wonderful garden produce.
We lived in a suburban plot of 1/4 acre.
But my Father was a great hand at vegetable gardening.
I know the joy of enjoying the garden produce during the year long.
I apreciate the fact that your beautiful twin daughters help you with your gardening and cooking.
You are truely blessed with Nature's bounties.
Love to you all, keep up your wonderful work,
Lizzie from Oz.
When I was a boy, lived in Front Royal Va, hurricane Agnes came through in 1972. The Shenandoah River crested at 25 feet. I can still remember the smell of the muddy river to this day.
This video made me cry, all the years together and still in Love......My parents were like this.....
Tipper, I love ya'llso much !! Popsicle talks are great - the two of you were meant for one another without a doubt !! I just burst out laughing when Matt said you needed to bump the Geritol up to 2 so you could remember the last time it rained ! He's a little quiet & so soft spoken , but quick with a joke , his quiet demeanor making it even funnier !! I LOVE your posts not only because they celebrate Appalachia ,
but because your sweet spirit shines through in every one of them . Thank You So Much For All That You Do & All That You Teach Us .
Thanks for explaining what multiplying onions are and how to plant them!!
I listened to that song....The Galveston Flood. You were right, sure is a sad song.
I just love listening to you Tipper, I,m alone downunder, my forever family live 30ks from here, no space for a garden so I live vicariously through you. love n smiles Pippi
Up here in Virginia, we are having our third day of constant rain. It's been a light rain, non stop. Measuring 3 inches so far. It's also cool, in the 50's. Sure hope your onions do well for you. Sometimes planting on a whim proves to be a better planting than trying to be "on time". One year, it rained so much here in the spring, I was planting my summer garden in the middle of June. It turned out to be one of the best gardens I've ever had!
I absolutely love your video's...especially these one's when you and Matt sit together and have chats. It's so lovely to see xo I've commented a few times but I watch pretty much all of your video's. Summer is on it's last leg here too with the leaves beginning to quickly turn. The temps have dropped and I know that snow will soon (hopefully not too soon) be dusting the ground...until the end of the year and January when it can no longer be called a 'dusting'...it's a 'dumping'! over the years our summer's have gotten warmer and hotter and muggier. I have to admit I like this. This summer we had many days when the temp was over 100*F! It reached 108*F a few times! I would rather have this than the bitter cold of winter. Mind you, our winter's are not as cold as they used to be which means we get more snow. I love a good snow storm as long as I can watch it from inside and go out because I want to, not because I need to go somewhere. I do get my share of fresh, cold air though as I am a teacher in an Early Learning Centre and we take the children out for an hour (sometimes longer) in the a.m. and again in the afternoon. I think our geography is somewhat similar. I do not have mountains around me but we are surrounded with beautiful forests, lakes, and rivers. I live in Ontario, Canada. I share a passion to that of one of your daughters'. That is, I love crystals (stones etc. people call them other names too). I have quite a collection. I try to learn as much as I can about each one. Your daughter is very talented with the work she does with stone. I also enjoy learning about herbs and their properties. I have quite the apothecary of dried herbs. I especially enjoy watching your family play your instruments 🥰 and of course I have to put your garden up at the top of the list...I think I put it all at the top of my 'enjoy' list lol! Well, I'd better go and feed my cat, make my supper and do a few chores around here before I go to bed. I have to tell you; my mother passed away 6 days ago and when I came across this video I found it so comforting. Thank you so much for that. Have a nice week. Blessings to all of you xoxoxo
Kaye-I'm so glad you enjoy our videos! Sounds like we have much in common. I'm so sorry you lost your mother-my heart goes out to you!
Hi Kaye, sorry to here about your Mother, I lost my Mother Oct 8, 1994. I think about Her a lot this time of year. Time is a healer, that is true. I agree with you on cold weather, I now live in Florida. I have a friend in Temagami , Ontario. His name is Dieter Maurer, he was the manager of Matabitchuan Lodge. Thanx for sharing, be strong, God bless.🙂
I, too, hope you and Matt can find a way to continue your chats when the weather isn’t great for popsicles. If it isn’t too personal I would love to hear how you two met.
Y’all are just the best couple to hang out with on RUclips….ok, so we are watching y’all but y’all have conversations like we’re sitting right there with y’all.
I totally agree!
You are so kind-thank you 😀
Thank you 😀
A suggestion for a new RUclips channel...DEEP THOUGHTS with Matt and Tipper. Got to keep the popsicles and Matts impromptu faces and comments. Just watching those large trees swaying in the breeze is so relaxing. Thanks for letting us visit. 😁
😀
Hope you Guys have a good Crop of Green Onions all Winter! Proud the Hurricane missed you Guys! I feel for all the People that were hit by the Hurricane! You Guys have A Blessed Day!
Thank you Debbie!!
Hello @Debbie Roberts hope buoy are doing well my friend 😇🙏🏻😇🙏🏻❤️❤️
@@homesteadingpastor Hello Pastor! Hope you Guys had A Great Day! 💖❤️🙏😇🍁🍁
We live in the Georgetown SC area where IAN made the 2nd landfall. We have major flooding and damage, but nothing compared to Florida. ❤
I'm sorry the storm damaged your area too. Thank you for watching 😀
It's just heartbreaking so many people have lost everything even loved ones..Mother nature can be cruel, hurricanes and tornadoes make a wide path coming through and leave much destruction behind.Its going to take some time to build Florida back...When I was just a little girl we lived in Alaska , My dad was a military man,so we traveled a lot but I can still to this day remember that big earthquake that hit Alaska it was the worst one to hit Alaska, homes we're completely swallowed up as the ground opened up deeply and wide and took everything down with it..Yes,mother nature can be cruel..
There are lots of 33-year old people in the Piedmont of North Carolina, whose parents lived through Hurricane Hugo and were trapped at home for several days. 😉
Hugo wreaked havoc in the Appalachian mountains in Virginia. Sparked a ton of tornadoes. Like you were saying there were just paths across the mountains where all the trees were laid over.
Thank you for the garden update Tipper. I love the season changes. Looking forward to how those onions perform for you.
Y'all are so cute. "Better get you another Geritol so you can remember if it rained". Glad you got some beans to save for seed.
Agree that each of all four seasons brings special blessings.
I've grown these onions for yrs. Here in Ky we call them tater onions. I plant mine in late October and did them I late June after the tops fall over and before the July rains. If you leave them in the ground they're rot. I use the big ones to eat and separate the small ones to plant again.
When 2 of my grandchildren were with me, mom, dad and I would take them to Galveston. Last time I was there, my youngest daughter and I went Labor day weekend 2014, there had been a terrible hurricane and I was amazed how much they had cleaned up. There were boats on land and piles of rubbish everywhere. Galveston has nowhere to disposable of it!! They show a movie about the devastating effects of the storm. Love your videos. Texas is beginning to cool down, thank goodness!! God bless!!
I've never been but my nephew lived near there for a couple of years 😀
Michigan definitely has the four seasons! Cold weather with snow makes me feel like hibernating with books, crocheting, hot chocolate, afghans around me in the evenings...last winter I think my husband only had to snow blow about three times, but every winter is different. I can't handle hot weather very well.
I don"t know the lady's name but she strikes me as a very sacrificing wife and mother. I enjoy her calm and polite manner.
Thank you too much for sharing not only your foodways but your lives together. Such a wonderful peaceful time to spend with the two of you just being....just being.
I love how you and Matt just enjoy being together.
Y'all live in a beautiful place and it's wonderful to see it, especially in Fall! God bless y'all ! 🙏🙏❤️
I always have a chuckle when you and Matt have a treat when you have worked hard. I think of you as the Popsicle twins.
😀
Those Grammy beans look just like my Aunt's white half runner beans or some call great northern you can eat them raw or dried. I Love them both. We plant pinto and I just love them raw cooked yummy. We call the pinto Shelly beans. So delicious. Thanks do much for bringing back such wonderful memories for me.
I sure do enjoy these visits with you two. I think I'm gonna have to get some popsicles and eat them with you watching these videos! It's just everyday life but you make it interesting! Yep, wonder what we'll do when the cold weather comes?
You mentioned the wind and the wood smoke? Some of the fondest memories I have are those 2 things. We lived in a hollow that faced South. I walked about a quarter to catch the bus. Coming home i often faced the north wind from some iceberg, sometimes spitting snow or rain. But when i topped the little hill and turned the corner i'd catch sight of the house and i'd smell the wood smoke. Home, a good warm fire, the smell of supper cooking, Mom and Dad. I'd still have to rick up the wood on the porch and help Dad throw out hay blocks to the cows but there'd be a snack, later a good supper and then we'd all settle in, sometimes a game of dominoes or checkers or the old black and white television set. Westerns or Walt Disney. It was an old house, built from scratch with the. 35 dollars Dad had in his pocket in 1937. Sheathed in old brick wrap and tar paper it thrust itself from the side of the hill to the wide gabled porch and had grown bit by bit to what it resembled in the 60s. Yeah, I remember stiff winter winds and wood smoke. In my mind I can still turn that corner, see and smell it. I pity people who grew up without a few chores and wood smoke.
Love those memories Larry!
@@CelebratingAppalachia I had a very, very good childhood. I was 11 years younger than my nearest sibling and by the time I was 7 the older ones had fleged from home. I can still remember those summer nights with the light bugs flashing their tails, the whipoorwills and the owls. Dad and his older brothers or Mom's brothers or brother-in-laws sitting around a nat smudge to keep the insects back. They'd talk old times, horses and dogs they'd known, people they'd known when our state was new. They were one generation away from the folks who had come to Indian Territory as settlers. My mother's dad had come with an old steam driven saw mill. The lumber he cut was clear and common, virgin timber, straight grained, without a knot or blemish. He sold it top dollar for bridge timber and wagon axles. He kept 4 wagons on the road to the railroad , hauling it to the eastern markets. He made a fortune and drank a fortune. For he had a problem. It was not until 1959, my first grade year, that they did away with open range in the area I lived in. From our house, on all sides, there was open land for miles where people had let it go back because they couldn't pay the taxes during the Depression. That was my playground, my home stomp, as the Indians say. Hidden springs, a clear running creek to the south, 8 feet tall hazel nut bushes loaded in fall, old logging roads and game paths. I had a lonely childhood but a full rich one that I wouldn't trade for any other.
@@larryreese6146 Thank you for sharing the memories Larry!
Enjoyed this ! Best wishes for your onions ! We got between 2 and 3 inches of rain Friday and Friday night and some 40-50 miles per hour wind gusts. We are northeast of y'all though . They had said we would get 3 -6 inches of rain, but it went farther east . I'm my area of watauga county, the worst hurricane to hit us was Hugo in September of 1989. It leveled some areas ,like how you said opal did y'all. Our power was out for over a week , it was bad , worst I have ever seen...Matt is so much like me ! I love the cold , snow , the cold winds , wood fire , smell of wood smoke . I love the deer meat , harvesting your own meat and preparing it. congratulations on austin harvesting his first deer of the season...I hope matt and austin get their limit this season...my grandparents canned everything. They canned fish , canned deer meat, just about everything, they canned it . It was good ,and easy to prepare, when they wanted some to eat . I'm like Matt also with fish. I enjoy stream fishing for trout , but its good to have a boat, get out on the lake and harvest some fish. Y'all got lake chatuge not far from ya, use to be some good fishing, when I was young, and nantahala lake over the mountains there...I know y'all are proud of your daughters! I am ,and they are not mine ...Haha...well I've rambled on and on...thanks ,appreciate y'all...God bless y'all...🙏❤
Thank you Ben! We appreciate you 😀
