Hi Becky, great video as always :) I have a small suggestion for you regarding weighing your produce. Over the winter try to take an hour to weigh all your harvesting baskets/boxes and bowls. On the baskets you can tie on a label with the weight, write it on the boxes and bowls (or use a list or duct tape stickers). Then when you weigh your produce all you need to do is look at the label and deduct the weight of the baskets/box/bowl. It's a little thing but speeds you up at the end of a hot afternoon's gardening. Hope this little trick helps you and your followers :)
Becks, your voice send my cat and husband running in to watch your video with me. The trees on your property are gorgeous, especially the one turned red over your head during your outdoor. I hope you do try your hand at fried green tomatoes as they are "slap yo mama" delicious! I'd stand at my mama's elbow and eat them hot out of the pan. This may sound silly coming from a stranger on the internet, but I'm really proud of you. You never shy away from your mistakes and you are constantly learning and striving to be better. You're the kind of person that truly inspires people to be better than they were yesterday. Thank you for being you.
You CAN actually buy elephant garlic in the grocery stores. I bought some at my local Winco and the cloves were more like shallots! There were 5 cloves in my head
Yes. Very important instructions for starting a great example for the future of many families! Guaranteed to encourage self sufficiency and food for our spirits. 💙 THANK YOU 🥕
Becky, this is how I get tomato plants out of the cages. Cut the main stem, then cut stems just on outside of cage. Pull the cage out, rest of plant very easy to get out. Great and informative video, I now have better understanding of garlic
Becky, I LOVE that you're so honest. I'm a 56 yr old A.D.D. gardener. LOL I really am though. My gardening style and types prove it. I also love that you seem to be so neat. Lord have mercy. I am NOT. I grow on a tad bit over an acre. I have a big container garden, 3 greenstalks, 15 small raised beds and an inground area. It's "busy" like grandma's wallpaper. I leave stuff out all. the. time. One day I hope to find my late mother's garden trowel. It was so old. She probably got it at Kmart back in the day. It was the best trowel. I have never found it. It's been five years. Thank you for being YOU. You are a delight to watch. Don't change.
I just purchased a pound of the Great Northern garlic…… Urban Farmer has it! I also doing Magic…… we took down our old deck and I built three raised beds with the wood!
Thanks for the idea. We've grotten an allotment 2 weeks ago, and i want to make 2 raised beds, 1 for strawberries and 1 for herbs. When i read your comment i rememberred the stack of hardwood fencing planks in my backyard. I'm going to check them tomorrow!!!!
You should get a digital suitcase scale, lift the basket full of produce with the hanging scale. Mark the empty weight on each of the baskets. The scales weigh up to like 110 pounds. Amazon sells the scales for 10 to 15 bucks
FYI Turn your tomato cages with the large end on the ground, then put the next tomato cage over the top so you can control the small end. You will be able to stack more tomato cages together.
I have recently started watching the more then farmers channel and they have square tomato cages that fold up and store neatly instead of the round cages. They even use them for their pepper plants
There is nothing in this world like a home grown tomato! 😋 You MUST treat yourself to fried green tomatoes. They are absolutely delicious! Thanks for sharing this video and your homesteading journey. It's amazing and you are so relateable that it's inspiring!!
Becky I do not know how I have never seen your channel before. I stumbled on your videos this past week, and I am hooked. You are one of the most hardworking ladies I have ever seen. You are encouraging, smart and I love learning from you. Thank you for your videos.
Had a bunch of green romas …so I roasted them along with some red one tomatoes, a few bell peppers, and a couple of onions…. Blended into a yummy tomato soup …never would have guessed that many were green tomatoes…had a lovely red tomato soup color. Stored it in pint jars in the freezer.
I also love seeing the chickens!And I hope during the winter when Becky has a lull in her schedule I would so love to see a video of how she does her hair!It always looks so nice.
Being from the south I've eaten fried green tomatoes all my life. I've even read this year that people are canning sliced green tomatoes to pull out and fry during the winter which would be awesome.
Yum. I love fried green tomatoes and it doesn’t matter which variety you fry although obviously if they are bigger, it is easier to batter. Thanks for showing the process of harvesting and bed prep.
Maybe you could set you up a weighing station, with a scale and a dry erase board. Then when you bring it in you can document what you have. Then keep a notebook to transfer the info into for a reference later.
Becky, you are wonderful! Although you are half my age I have learned many things from you! I just now made my first bowl of brown sugar! You are correct when you say doing things the "homemade" way is very rewarding and empowering! Even down to simple techniques of cutting and peeling an onion, your method is much easier! I'm not certain that it gets cold enough, for long enough to grow after the first frost but I am in the process of planting some garlic! We live in a neighborhood and have a pool in our backyard so our growing space is limited! I have taken out most of the shrubs in one section of the yard so that has given me some room. Tomatoes, peppers and okra are what I have room for! Bless you sweet lady for helping this old lady get better in the kitchen because that is where I love to be! I hope that Josh, Acre and you all have a wonderful Holiday Season all around! Linda/Grammy
I am absolutely AMAZED at how much you get done w/a baby/toddler in the house! We're in our 80s now and still garden & preserve our food but I do remember those child-filled years and how exhausting it was to try to do everything like you are doing. Many kudos to you - (and how do you film with NO baby sounds in the background???).
Thanks to the person who suggested to Becky that she soaks her garlic in cold water to aid in peeling. I used the method yesterday and it worked. Cheers
I think you might be wrong about not getting hard neck garlic from the grocery store. I planted garlic from the grocery store last year and it was hard neck.
I am in Pennsylvania and our Amish neighbors always plant celery if there is going to be a wedding at their house in the fall. They wrap the celery in a few layers of newspaper and burlap. They then tie it to keep away frost damage and harvest it up through December. Just thought I would share that tip for what it is worth.....
Hi Becky greetings to you and your beautiful family. These garlic are so big and beautiful can't wait to see the future next year how huge they will be when harvesting, I believe how happy your heart will be harvesting your garlic next year❤ looking forward for the rest of 2023 harvest👍🙏 what a abundance of beautiful tomatoes harvest this year❤your tomatoes always do well👍
Hey Becky 😇 NaNas here for the Garlic, 😮 they so big WOW. 😊❤❗... Im having to move my tomatoes next year due to the growth of a walnut tree 😉😜 but It will be worth it, im in process of filling up a space thats full sun Ive been 👀 with compost n small limbs n things so next year Ill be prepared for more things to try my hand at Thanks to you Becky n a couple others I ❤ n are so inspirational 😍😇❗... You did great this year , For the 1st year in the new beds 😉❗... Thanks for sharing your knowledge n garden with us this year friend, sending bunches of love 💞💖💞 to ya 😘❗
Ohhh excited and hope I can continue my garden next year (had to put it on hold this year due to chemo ugh 😑) but next year I’ll be back in full swing including my first year of late garlic planting…I’m so excited 😊
Becky roma tomatoes are just fine for fried green tomatoes. Fried green tomatoes are a staple down south where I live. Don’t overthink your fried tomatoes. Only a few ingredients are needed. I use flour, salt and pepper to coat them maybe a little paprika. Then just pan fry until light brown. Delish!
❤ As we are heading towards the holidays, I can't help but think of your son. I wonder if he is crawling, talking and enjoying your wonderful, healthy food from your garden. I totally respect your decision of not including your son in your channel but also wonder about him.😊 Thank you for all your lessons on recipes, seeds and gardening. Your garden has been amazing! May God to continue to bless you, your family and your viewers.
Love the massive garlic heads! Can’t wait to see what they produce for you next year, & how much easier processing! But WHY aren’t you using your Gator instead of just wheelbarrow during all these big harvests & bed cleanouts?
I don’t know how you do it Becky…I have a garden about half the size of yours and I get overwhelmed with how to process it all and how to store it all. I am even contemplating what I should and should not grow next year because I have so much already canned and frozen.
What a great idea using the lighter to create the holes in the fabric. Love the tomato harvests that you have had this year! So many tomatoes!!!! Time to put the beds to rest.😴 I used to help my Dad put his garden to rest for the winter. We would pull everything & he would amend then cover like you did. He said the the garden worked hard and needed to sleep. Plus gardening is great but after so much harvesting a person can just get tired. Thanks for sharing.
I’m back lol. I have to say, at the end with the sun glowing, Becky that view is absolutely amazing ♥️♥️ I went back and paused it so I could just enjoy it for a minute. WOW just doesn’t cut it. 😊
Hey Becky! Your garden is looking lovely! You should mount a simple digital hanging scale near your garden gate then you can just hook your harvest basket(or just a 5 gallon bucket) on it and get an idea of how much you are getting out of your garden.
Your enthusiasm for all things gardening is contagious. The joy of getting garlic in the ground was so apparent in your voice and on your face. This time of year even the most avid gardeners show "garden fatigue" but you seem to thrive there regardless of how much work the season has been. I really envy you (in a good way) this unwavering passion.
Lol, I cracked up when you pulled the one Roma plant and beautiful tomatoes rained down! Congratulations, and may next year be as bountiful as this one.
Becky and crew, perhaps weighing might happen if you put some tape on the baskets (base of the handle?) and as soon as you get inside. weigh it and mark it. or if there are weatherproof outdoor scales???? you could have them right outside. perhaps also some nephew or niece or just a kid who wants to learn could lend you a hand. Here in Mexico the kids are always willing to pitch in. Glad to see that the organizing helps you get more done, more quickley. hugs to you and yours from me and mine Jim Oaxaca
You need slicing tomatoes for fried green tomatoes. Mix egg with a little milk in a bowl, in another bowl mix flour, salt, pepper, and if you want another spice. Slice the tomatoes, dip in egg mixture, then in flour. And put in oil in the frying pan. Brown on both sides.
I’m excited for this, I’ve been waiting for a little bit. I saw one channel planted all the garlic facing the same direction and all the garlic grew the same direction too! So funny but so organised that the leaves didn’t bump into each other. Hope 2024’s harvest is going to be brilliant!
My husband bought me a gorilla cart. It fits more then a wheel barrow, easier to pull, 4 wheels, and a tilt bed. So much easier to use. How you thought about getting one? It will change the way you do things.
Those were beautiful garlic heads. So many time the grocery store ones are so little you can barely peel and slice them. Can't wait to see your parents come and help with the onions. Becky, you are getting off to a great 2024 start with all the labeling. Have a good week.
I've seen others that plant Amish Paste tomatoes and they turn out to be about 2 to 3 times larger than a Roma. Still meaty and delicious. You might want to try them. I'm going to next year.
I just love that after a week of recovering from being away, as I work on putting my house back together and process the apples that I got while away I get to open RUclips and see the woman that encouraged me to start a store in my own house! I’ve got so many jars put up, I need to purchase more shelving.
You are an amazing young woman! I so enjoy watching and listening to you! Just listening to you today about garlic, so much I never knew about it! I appreciate you, very much!
Look at it this way, if you planted a garden this year, then, every meal you eat from your garden is a meal you did not have to buy at the store . It not only saves food for others when you don’t go to a he store for fresh produce but it is a lot fresher than the store bought usually. Labor of love.
Canned green tomato relish is sooooooo good as is green tomato pie and fried green tomatoes. So I hope you get to enjoy them before they ripen to red inside and find the time to discover their wonderful freshness, flavor, and flexibility. Very impressive harvest, Becky..
I'm looking at your garden and wondering if i would really want that for me? Lol I'm already convinced i need way more than i could ever tend to be fully satisfied with it. Blessings everyone everywhere and always
I planted two heads worth of red inchellium (soft neck) in September, and I've already got sprouts that are several inches tall! It's my first time growing garlic, hoping they do well!
Becky, would it be possible for you to include links to the types of garlic that you bought and where you bought them from? Or site links from where your friends bought them from
i got mine from fedco; they had both organic and non-organic choices. it's probably too late to order now. i tried to order in august and a lot of options were sold out already. seed garlic is wretched expensive. thank god u can grow ur own after that.
I made the green tomato curry from Rachel at that 1870's homestead for the first time this year. It's amazing! It'll be a staple for us from now on...I highly recommend it.
Fried green tomatoes are so yummy and take some time to do but are so worth it! You are a great gardener, daughter, mom and wife.. also friend. Love you to pieces!🥰🥰Miss Linda🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’m in zone 10b & I don’t get a frost. I currently have my seed garlic in the fridge where it will stay until mid November then I’ll plant it out. We had so much rain this past winter/early spring that most of us in my area lost their garlic due to diseases.
Hello Becky .. just found your site … really enjoy your videos and energy that you have .. can we see the chickens .. you work so hard but the bounty you receive is worth it.. love your home .. Bernie from uk
I made Piccadilly Relish from Ball Book Home Persevering page 228 using green tomatoes & it was wonderful!!! I wish I were your neighbor I’d help in garden if I could of had all those green tomatoes in your compost pile
Becky - look up some green tomato relish recipes for your green tomatoes - delicious! some are on the sweet side and others are hot w/ peppers! It's a Southern staple. Fried Green Tomatoes are good too!
Thank you for sharing with us, I have picked up so much info from this and have planted my garlic out during this fall. My tomatoes have been amazing I have grown large and small and love the sweet aperitif so full of flavour great on salad or BLT. my potatoes are in for the Christmas crop. just hoping this storm does not cause a lot of damage. love to all xxx
Becky, i know nothing about gardening, i live in an apartment in a city... But regarding your "little" carrots. .. In the UK chantary carrots are marketed as a more premium/special/posh carrot SPECIFICALLY for its small, squat shape and size - especially for a celebration dinner like Xmas or even just a Sunday roast dinner.
Considering that you just moved and put in the beds this year i think your garden yield was really great! You're learning how to adapt to a slightly different climate also. Wishing you the best for 2024. Love your channel ❤ PS I miss seeing the girls too.😢😊
I grew up in Michigan the first tomatoes were always picked green for frying 😋😋😋. The last green tomatoes were always made into green tomato relish also delicious. Love your channel Becky .
The rate at which Becky's channel is growing is a testament to the value she is giving out. Thank you Becky for sharing your life with us and teaching us so much about homemaking. Good job.👏👏♥️

@@swittman9123 omg i handled a tomato twice lol. call the garden police. if ur containers are identical there's no need to transfer anything.

I can't believe how fast your first garden season in your new home went. Seems like you just planted it all!! On to next year!!
I love how authentic and honest you are. It encourages me to keep going.
Will search your channel on building those gorgeous beds!!!!

Use those green tomatoes to make some southern chow-chow
You should get a digital suitcase scale, lift the basket full of produce with the hanging scale. Mark the empty weight on each of the baskets. The scales weigh up to like 110 pounds. Amazon sells the scales for 10 to 15 bucks
Hey Becky….you help me pass the time while getting my chemo treatments. Thanks❤😊
FYI

I have recently started watching the more then farmers channel and they have square tomato cages that fold up and store neatly instead of the round cages. They even use them for their pepper plants
I have them and will never go back to the round ones. They are an investment but are very sturdy, fold up nice for storage, and last a very long time.

Great white northern does very well for me! You’ll like it. My favorite part is that it is easy to peel the huge cloves!
Being from the south I've eaten fried green tomatoes all my life. I've even read this year that people are canning sliced green tomatoes to pull out and fry during the winter which would be awesome.
These are my favorite kind of videos. I really enjoy watching you do the gardening from beginning to end. 😀
I'm going to keep asking every video: please, please show us more of the chickens eating their treats you give them
I think you're going to have to let that women show you her girls at sometime, she must love your chickens.
❤❤❤ yes I miss see the girls when they were free ranging ❤❤❤
Yes, I miss them too😢
I don’t think she reads the comments
I hear you loud and clear! I have started filming them more just for you :)
Yes! I have my garlic planted too! Feels good to have my 2024 garden already going.

And always nice to see Dad. Hopefully Mom will pop up soon, also 😊
I've seen others that plant Amish Paste tomatoes and they turn out to be about 2 to 3 times larger than a Roma. Still meaty and delicious. You might want to try them. I'm going to next year.
Celery freezes well. I chop mine up and freeze it for use in recipes.
Hi Becky, hi friends
I planted this morning! I also planted elephant garlic because of a video you made at your last home.
I just love that after a week of recovering from being away, as I work on putting my house back together and process the apples that I got while away I get to open RUclips and see the woman that encouraged me to start a store in my own house!
I’ve got so many jars put up, I need to purchase more shelving.
You are an amazing young woman! I so enjoy watching and listening to you! Just listening to you today about garlic, so much I never knew about it! I appreciate you, very much!
Look at it this way, if you planted a garden this year, then, every meal you eat from your garden is a meal you did not have to buy at the store .
It not only saves food for others when you don’t go to a he store for fresh produce but it is a lot fresher than the store bought usually.
Labor of love.
Keep seeds from that one with ripe ripe tomatoes!!!! 21:50.
Its beauty alone is worth saving.
Blessings everyone everywhere and always
What a beautiful view from your garden. I'm sure that makes working in the garden more enjoyable.
Becky is our new June Cleaver! Building skills!
Canned green tomato relish is sooooooo good as is green tomato pie and fried green tomatoes. So I hope you get to enjoy them before they ripen to red inside and find the time to discover their wonderful freshness, flavor, and flexibility. Very impressive harvest, Becky..
We just planted our tulips and allium bulbs today hopefully have a beautiful spring
I'm looking at your garden and wondering if i would really want that for me?
Lol
I'm already convinced i need way more than i could ever tend to be fully satisfied with it.
Blessings everyone everywhere and always
I planted two heads worth of red inchellium (soft neck) in September, and I've already got sprouts that are several inches tall! It's my first time growing garlic, hoping they do well!
What an amazing first season for you in your new garden! All your hard work has paid off. Congratulations!
Becky, would it be possible for you to include links to the types of garlic that you bought and where you bought them from? Or site links from where your friends bought them from
Yes! I too would greatly appreciate it 🙏🏼
She usually has it in her description notes.
i got mine from fedco; they had both organic and non-organic choices. it's probably too late to order now. i tried to order in august and a lot of options were sold out already. seed garlic is wretched expensive. thank god u can grow ur own after that.
I made the green tomato curry from Rachel at that 1870's homestead for the first time this year. It's amazing! It'll be a staple for us from now on...I highly recommend it.
OMG, thank you ever so much for sharing. I was wondering when to actually plant garlic. Thanks a million
My husband hollars at me because I leave my tools out. You look lovely in the golden hour! Thank you for inspiring us to plan and be intentional!
Absolutely no bothers were given in this tomato unplanting process😂😂😂😂😂
I loved seeing it!!!!
Fried green tomatoes are so yummy and take some time to do but are so worth it! You are a great gardener, daughter, mom and wife.. also friend. Love you to pieces!🥰🥰Miss Linda🙏🏻🙏🏻
Becky you had such a productive garden this year, I would say a great success.
Just wanted to let everyone know. That QVC has her click top 9x13 baking dishes she uses in stock and on sale.
I’m in zone 10b & I don’t get a frost. I currently have my seed garlic in the fridge where it will stay until mid November then I’ll plant it out. We had so much rain this past winter/early spring that most of us in my area lost their garlic due to diseases.
I’m in 10a and mine is in the fridge too.
Hello Becky .. just found your site … really enjoy your videos and energy that you have .. can we see the chickens .. you work so hard but the bounty you receive is worth it.. love your home .. Bernie from uk

Love ya Girl.. hope all is well with the family... I'm sure the little guy is getting big.. God bless !! 🙏
Becky - look up some green tomato relish recipes for your green tomatoes - delicious! some are on the sweet side and others are hot w/ peppers! It's a Southern staple. Fried Green Tomatoes are good too!
Thank you for sharing with us, I have picked up so much info from this and have planted my garlic out during this fall. My tomatoes have been amazing I have grown large and small and love the sweet aperitif so full of flavour great on salad or BLT. my potatoes are in for the Christmas crop. just hoping this storm does not cause a lot of damage. love to all xxx
Becky, i know nothing about gardening, i live in an apartment in a city... But regarding your "little" carrots. .. In the UK chantary carrots are marketed as a more premium/special/posh carrot SPECIFICALLY for its small, squat shape and size - especially for a celebration dinner like Xmas or even just a Sunday roast dinner.
Exciting!!
Considering that you just moved and put in the beds this year i think your garden yield was really great! You're learning how to adapt to a slightly different climate also. Wishing you the best for 2024. Love your channel ❤ PS I miss seeing the girls too.😢😊
Your 2023 garden has been extremely abundant and I have enjoyed every garden video. Take care 🤗💕
Good job Becky, keep up the good work on labeling and putting things away. Thanks for sharing
I grew up in Michigan the first tomatoes were always picked green for frying 😋😋😋. The last green tomatoes were always made into green tomato relish also delicious. Love your channel Becky .
Great cleaning job on the garden beds!
Thank you for all of the inspiration and information.
