I'm so happy many of you experienced canners are doing a lot of entry level videos. I see so many new folks in the chats looking for info and support. Green beans in pints was the very first thing I pressure canned. I sent pictures to everyone, I was so proud.
Dagney Taggart I have canned for a few years now, mostly meats and beans. I have never done green beans or tomatoes. I think I’ve gone about this backwards, but getting it done! I’m so grateful for videos like this
Heather im 60 years old.i love your channel bc you teach new canners how to do canning.You would be surprised that the young people don't even know how to snap a green bean or shell pea's.but its great that we have someone like you to teach them.god bless you and your family.
I would love to see a series like the last two videos you’ve made. I grew up in foster care, and didn’t have a “mom” to teach me anything like this, now I’ve been learning through RUclips and love this. I have also been helping a few ladies in the neighborhood can. We have canning parties lol. This would be so helpful to all newbies. Thank you as always
The only thing that blanching accomplishes is it keeps them from floating in your jars. If these are going to the county fair, then blanch them. Otherwise, raw packing is fine.
You are absolutely right, so many people did not grow up in a "canning household" especially not people in their 20s and 30s today! Thank you for providing easy to follow videos 🙏
Heather, I do hope you are recovering well. I am about to attempt canning green beans for the first time, and immediately thought to look up your video! Continued thoughts and prayer for you and your family.
I’m catching up/binge watching your VLOGs, you have a bright spirit and easy-to-listen-to way of delivering the instruction. I’ve checked over your titles and I’m excited.
This is the best video. I am canning for the first time. And half runners are my favorite. We have a whole bushel. And it is a lot of work preparing them. I am excited to can.
You can do it! Green beans are a great first effort, or try carrots. No are easy to handle. You can raw pack the first time and consider hot pack once you're comfortable. Both are low cost vegies to start. I'd suggest using your first batch soon, to reinforce the knowledge that you are making something good. Once you have that confidence, you can start stocking your pantry.
I'm so with you on this Debra! I just got my first pressure canner last month. Mine is a Presto 23 quart, it was all I could find and the price was just right for me!! I'm so excited and nervous to get going!
@@rachalnocchi5600 I ordered and All American in July, but I have not had it as yet, but in the interim I saw a larger one available, so I bought that as well. I hope that the larger one will get to me (customs permitting, they seem to stop everything) so at least I can use it for my current produce, the 910 I ordered originally, is more suitable for me in all honesty, but needs must. I know that the lady on 'Homestead Heart' has uploaded a number of videos thus far using her Presto canner. She recently received an All American, so it could change from now on. She has canned a variety of produce and has quite an extensive playlist - if that helps. All the best and happy canning!
Thank you for your honesty, you have eased my mind about water bath canning my green beans. Your video is very informative and easy to follow, my wife and I just got done trying this for the first time! Thanks again!
I am a guy canning been canning for a while and came across this one tired it with your recipe it was good. I also added my cajun seasoning to it and when it was time to eat wow made it better so thanks. Dont hurt to add new things. Your site was helpful thank your keep up the great work
I thought this video was great and you did the right thing showing the basic prep at the start. I am new to water bath canning, haven't had a pressure canner as yet, but I underestimated how much produce it takes to even fill one 1pt jar, let alone a quart jar. For those who are new to this and may not have access to large quantities of produce, it does show them the quantities of produce required just for a single canner tier of jars. I have seen others prep fruit harvests, they return to show you 21 quart jars full - my back would be in half after all that work! Those with large homesteads and vast experience have the self discipline to persevere and get the job done, a number of us are simply trying new techniques to preserve the smaller quantities that we have. I saw a pack of pears in a shop, due to be discarded - one tiny blemish on one. I couldn't resist, I bought them and canned them. 5 pears = 1pt jar. It is surprising how much you get into these jars when you have to pack them according to the strict rules. For me, canning has its place as our freezer dependency is becoming risky. I hope to be able to pressure can my home grown veg etc, but I am waiting on my canner. (fingers crossed!) I live in the UK.
Miss Heather thank you for the heads up about Country View Bulk Store. Went there today for wide mouth lids...only half sleeves left but picked up what I needed. Enjoyed the 2.5 hours one way as there were cds I wanted to listen to...win win in my book. Your patience in teaching us all things canning is such a blessing. Thanks ❤ Today is Aug 6th. Wide mouth lids were 30 cents each and reg was 26 cents each...do not know when you purchase..think the.receipt said the 3rd..tried to read it...you paid 22 cents for wide mouth and 18 cents for reg mouth. Up 8 cents a lid...ouch. But I have them.
We canned pint jars of greene beans and wax beans and corn.all in there own jars not together.a couple years ago.still have 2 jars of each left.they are still good.taste just as good as the day we did them.
Thank you for taking the time to share your process. The one good thing that I had growing up was that we had a garden and small animals like chickens, pigs, goats, and rabbits. Also that my parents canned food so I was able to learn from them. My father was a fantastic cook he learned a lot of his skills being in the military, so I was able to watch him and learned to cook from scratch. Not everyone was raised this way so this make me great full that I learned these skills and that my parents gave me the opportunity to have the knowledge of preparation. Thank you again for the knowledge you are sharing to us all!
Oh, Heather! Guess who is getting back into the swing of things?! I'm buying 2 bushels, hopefully 4, this week! Most will be here at the house, a few to Dad and Max, and i'll be making some to sell (Daddy needs to make some money!) I'll be washing mine, outside, using (4) 18gal rope handled totes from walmart. I'll be putting holes in (2) of them, turning them into colanders so it makes it easy to wash/ rinse and strain them out! Pretty shary, huh? I'll be using this method for ALL my BIG future projects of veggies and possible fruits. =) anyway, it's really nice to go back and watch your videos to have a refresher as well as the books. Hope to hear from you! =)
You are very inspiring. And it does help to see how you get to where you start canning and even after the process. We are all trying to learn. Thank you
This video is for everyone. Even when you "know" you can always learn something new or incorporate something into ones process. For example using the kitchen shears... Had I used them instead of my pairing knife I could have avoided a lot of cramping; and saved my hands for the apples and pears. Thanks for the videos❤️
Thank you I'm a beginner and I really appreciate all your videos I'm learning a lot and I just want to tell you you're doing a great job on your videos thank you
Thank you for sharing your skills and your canning philosophy! I’m a new canner and have been binge watching your videos. The care you take shows your love for food and family! Thank you for all you do! 🙂
Heather, it is so very nice of you to go through all these steps and explaining each step to everyone especially beginners. I’m sure you inspired everyone and you know what to say to make them calm and not intimidated. God bless you my friend. You are awesome! 👍👍❤️❤️🧡🧡🌻🌻🌻🥰🥰🥰
Excellent video thank you so much for putting this up. I have never done green beans so you showing us step by step from beginning to end was easy to understand. Much gratitude to you little Mamma 😃
A fellow Heather! I just found your canning vids last night and been binge watching. My mom canned my whole life, but she never actually taught us kids to do it. I kind of got the jist of it as I watched, but never actually 'participated' in the canning process. Her canner looks exactly like yours, though she got her's decades ago. As I was watching your other vids, I was listening to you and thinking, "She's a MIchigander!" as many of you have a certain accent (very similar to Canadians). Now, in this vid, you confirmed my suspicions!! No worries, I love Michiganders...I'm married to one!! I'm an Ohioan (yes, one of those evil neighbors to the south...lol!!) Loving your canning vids and thank you for the wealth of canning info, as I'm preparing to delve into it as soon as I can get a pressure canner myself (they're expensive, especially right now!).
Thank you Heather for this tutorial I've canned for eons but I've.never done green beans and appreciate your baby-steps, thorough process. Continued healing.prayers to you and yours always, Heather. Thank you!..
I’m very proud of you for doing these informative videos for new beginners. I kinda self taught myself by watch videos and just jumping in. Now I’m obsessed with canning all the things lol. It’s addictive. God bless you Heather. P.s. my chickens will not eat my green bean stems. Spoilt brats 🤣🥰🐓
I appreciate that very much, thank you! hahahaha some snub mine too! same with carrots! and bread. some snub and some go hog wild for them! hahaha i never know who is going to like something or not. My rooster loves wild bird seed. LOL no one else but him! hahaha the only thing they all love is watermelon and meal worms. no one snubs those! LOL my chickens are prissy too!
I am soooo happy I found you. We have an awesome garden and I all ready have to freeze, blanch and can food . We are eating and I am still pick so we decided to start a pantry of food for the winter. Thanks for your videos
Thanks for the video. I’ve been canning for about two months now. Of course, me being me, I had to start with more difficult things like beef stew, raw packed meats, etc. I still learned a lot from this video like why my rims were turning black. I didn’t realize it was from the vinegar. Now I feel more comfortable with it.
THINKING about You this Harvest Season. Doing a couple rounds of green beans . Tomorrow is Tomatoes. Wishing a good School Season for the littles, Mason and Mina.
I should have paid more attention back in the day when my Grandma was canning green beans cause they were the best tasting green beans ever. Have to say, the smell when she was canning green beans was super gross, though. Thanks so much for sharing!
My wife wants to know if you have ever canned peach pie filling? She couldn't find anything on your videos indicating that you have, Thank you for all the things you have helped her learn to do.
Oregano essential oil is very effective to Carpal tunnel and it also helps arthritis too my husband’s hand is really bad with carpal tunnel and he uses oregano oil every day and it actually works well, he got the cortisone shot once and it only lasted three days then his hand started shaking really bad but now they don’t anymore because of the oregano essential oil just thought I’d share that with you or whoever has carpal tunnel 😁 I use Lipton onion soup mix for my green beans and my carrots and it’s so good! Canning is so much fun I really enjoy canning. Once you get passed the intimidation of pressure canning you will be just fine it’s just that first time doing it!
I love your videos. I am using my PC for the first time canning beans just like you. Unfortunately, i just purchased an All American 915 and just bought new stove GE glass top. My large eye is the perfect size so hopefully wont break. I’ve only had the stove less than a week. I am adding vidalia onions with vegetable broth. My question is would you add the 1/8:tsp of salt? You said seaoning will intensify. Your opinion on adding the salt.
I was raised just like you so your videos are super helpful. You always have very helpful hint as you go along that gives a great visual. Thank you! ❤️
I'm canning green beans today too.So glad you are doing videos like these!!! I have canned green beans for several years,but there is always a top of some kind that I get from videos like this,so thank you!!! I raw pack mine too. I don't like the texture of blanched beans when I can either.I have a problem with green beans syphoning.It is the only thing I have trouble with doing that,anything else the headspace comes out perfect.I have tried all the things,but haven't figured out why,but I love watching your canning videos weather I have canned it for years or something new,so thank you!!!
I wonder if it's not so much syphoning as it may be soaking up the water as they cook....do you tightly pack those suckers in the jar? hahaha I noticed if I dont pack them in super tight, I get floating and my headspace will look off. I have competitions with myself on keeping the perfect headspace, and when it's off, it bugs me. A lot. HAHAHAHA
@@TheKneadyHomesteader I will try that.It could be.I know they look pretty good when I take them out and I let the pressure come slowly down and let my canner set for a bit,and after I crack the lid too before I take them out,so that could be a possibility.Yea I do the same.I feel so good when that headspace is right.lol Thanks Heather.😊
Wonderful green beans and i wish I had access to a good farm stand that sells really fresh produce but i find here in N.W. Florida that right now its not cheap just better tasting to can your own and know what is in there. The prep is very important and clean up too, Smashing canning vid Heather xx How's your sister doing ??.
ugh. so sorry to hear your prices are high! Melanie is doing great! Her and her family just spent the weekend here two weeks ago.....we just swam and grilled all weekend! it was so much fun. haha
Wow Heather, I literally canned green beans for the first time yesterday(4/ one and a half pints). A small amount, but so rewarding. If I could have waited just one more day for you, lol.
Same here, I canned green beans for the first time in the wee hours of yesterday morning! lol I harvested about six pounds out of the garden the day before and was able to fill six quarts... Very rewarding.
Green beans is something I haven't canned yet. I plan to grow several plants, so if they grow well, I'll try canning them up! Yep, I've really only eaten good old DelMonte. Blukk!
I’ve always grown up hand snapping our green beans, collecting ends in one hand and beans in the other. When my hands fill, toss them in bowls. Inevitably, somewhere along the way I will loose my rhythm and put the wrong handful in the wrong bowl. 🤦♀️ Now, I have developed trigger fingers in both hands so I might try using my kitchen shears. They look so pretty and it looks easier.
I love your videos. We did buy our shelves at Sams club too. Thank you for sharing your with us. I canned a bushel of green beans yesterday. I still have to wash my jars and put them on my new shelves. Happy canning! Carol in Michigan.
I can't wait until I have access to fresh produce. Your green beans look amazing. I would can my veggies in pints because I'm the only one who eats their veggies. My husband's favorite food group is dessert. 😊🥰
Thank you very much for showing how you can green beans. I have been wanting to get started canning and this would be so easy for me! I adore peppercorns and dried onion in my beans, so I'm going to do this too!
If you are a candidate for Carpal Tunnel surgery I would wholeheartedly recommend it. I've had the surgery on both hands. Since I am weird about taking pain killers I didn't take any. The relief from the pain that the carpal tunnel was causing me was well worth it. I only wish I had done it sooner.
I am! But I have 2 friends who had it and are in worse pain than before so I am terrified. I can't function without my hands. They are the hardest working part of my body. haha But I spent over a week braced up unable to move my wrist at all, and in so much pain, that surgery may be the only option for me pretty soon. I appreciate you sharing that with me. Thank you!
I'd like to know what kind of bean seeds you plant. How do you get them to grow in the box? LOL Great video Heather. Even an experienced canner can learn from these vids. I will no longer be blanching my green beans. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

I'm so happy many of you experienced canners are doing a lot of entry level videos. I see so many new folks in the chats looking for info and support.
Green beans in pints was the very first thing I pressure canned. I sent pictures to everyone, I was so proud.
That's awesome! You should be proud!!!!
Dagney Taggart I have canned for a few years now, mostly meats and beans. I have never done green beans or tomatoes. I think I’ve gone about this backwards, but getting it done! I’m so grateful for videos like this
Green beans is the main reason I want to learn how, so glad there is a video on it
Heather im 60 years old.i love your channel bc you teach new canners how to do canning.You would be surprised that the young people don't even know how to snap a green bean or shell pea's.but its great that we have someone like you to teach them.god bless you and your family.
God Bless you, Hope! And thank you so much. xox
I would love to see a series like the last two videos you’ve made. I grew up in foster care, and didn’t have a “mom” to teach me anything like this, now I’ve been learning through RUclips and love this. I have also been helping a few ladies in the neighborhood can. We have canning parties lol. This would be so helpful to all newbies. Thank you as always
This is the series!😁 Canning for Beginners. I have a whole playlist dedicated to it for you guys. 🥰
The Kneady Homesteader awesome! I’m going to enjoy each of them
I wish there were canning parties near me!
I appreciate the time you take to show us these simple things some of us have not seen or thought to do. It is very helpful!
I am so glad to hear that! I don't want these videos to be boring for you guys. xoxo
Could I use raw onions with the peppercorns?
Hoping to do find bulk green beans. My bean plants are growing like 7 to 12 beans per day.
The only thing that blanching accomplishes is it keeps them from floating in your jars. If these are going to the county fair, then blanch them. Otherwise, raw packing is fine.
Thanks my friend God bless you 🙏 ❤️
You are absolutely right, so many people did not grow up in a "canning household" especially not people in their 20s and 30s today! Thank you for providing easy to follow videos 🙏
I just started canning a year ago and I'm trying different things it's awesome
Heather, I do hope you are recovering well. I am about to attempt canning green beans for the first time, and immediately thought to look up your video! Continued thoughts and prayer for you and your family.
We grow our own because I love to bottle younger green beans. They are so so wonderful when picked and bottled on the small side!
I’m catching up/binge watching your VLOGs, you have a bright spirit and easy-to-listen-to way of delivering the instruction. I’ve checked over your titles and I’m excited.
I love seeing these videos. You teach it so that it's easy to understand and make it fun. Thank you!
You are so welcome! And I am so happy you are enjoying these videos! I may be making too many? hahahaha
This is the best video. I am canning for the first time. And half runners are my favorite. We have a whole bushel. And it is a lot of work preparing them. I am excited to can.
You are a great teacher.
I have never canned green beans so thank you for showing the prepping part. I will be canning mine tomorrow.
Thank you for this video I am new to canning trying to learn this is soooo helpful.
You are so welcome! Happy Canning Sharon!!!!
Continuing to watch your playlist.
I will make some notes in this video. I have followed several of your videos now. The jars always turn out beautiful and tasty!
As a new canner I'm glad to see the steps. Love and prayers
Thanks for the video. I’m working up my courage to use my pressure canner!
♥️👍🤓

girl, the owner told Matt they had lids for MONTHS! hahaha apparently NOT! I also heard they sold out of all of their canners by Tuesday!
Thank you, I'm new to canning. Your video was so helpful, hugs
I do know how to can. Im an avid canner, but still like to watch what others do. You can always learn something new from other people. :)

There are always people that don't know. You are so helpful to the everyday new canner. It is much appreciated!🤗
You give be courage to try. Thank you so much.
You are very inspiring. And it does help to see how you get to where you start canning and even after the process. We are all trying to learn. Thank you

I’m new to this and I appreciate this so much. I didn’t really know how to do this.
Thank you so much for this video. I learned to Can from you. Thanks again.
Thank you I'm a beginner and I really appreciate all your videos I'm learning a lot and I just want to tell you you're doing a great job on your videos thank you
Thank you for sharing your skills and your canning philosophy! I’m a new canner and have been binge watching your videos. The care you take shows your love for food and family! Thank you for all you do! 🙂
Happy Canning, Trina!
Oh man my fave thing to can! Sharing all the the prep work for canning is such a great idea!
Thank you for this! Canning for the first time ever today!! (I’m in Michigan too) You’ve been in my prayers
Heather, it is so very nice of you to go through all these steps and explaining each step to everyone especially beginners. I’m sure you inspired everyone and you know what to say to make them calm and not intimidated. God bless you my friend. You are awesome! 👍👍❤️❤️🧡🧡🌻🌻🌻🥰🥰🥰

I do know how to can and still really enjoy and learned from this video. It's a perfect refresher before harvest time.
Very nice, informative, video. You do an excellent job of teaching folks who have never canned before. Keep doing what you are doing! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much!

Thank you! You sound so uplifting. Your family is blessed!
You are so kind
I have never canned and plan to from my garden this summer - so thank you!!
Beautiful jars of beans.
Thank you!
I thoroughly enjoy your step by step explanation to help simplify the canning process.
Glad it was helpful to you! :D Thanks Mary!
I should have paid more attention back in the day when my Grandma was canning green beans cause they were the best tasting green beans ever. Have to say, the smell when she was canning green beans was super gross, though. Thanks so much for sharing!
😆 they are quite strong smelling when pressure canning them. 🤣
I'm canning green beans with you tonight. I love the company with me.
Yes this video is very helpful...thank you for this tutorial..
My wife wants to know if you have ever canned peach pie filling? She couldn't find anything on your videos indicating that you have, Thank you for all the things you have helped her learn to do.
Thank you for doing this! First time canner here!
GREAT video Heather!!!
I think there are a lot of beginners out there right now, thank you!
Thank you this video answered my questions
Thank you for posting this video. I’m new to gardening and canning. I’m also slightly terrified of my pressure cooker 😃
Oregano essential oil is very effective to Carpal tunnel and it also helps arthritis too my husband’s hand is really bad with carpal tunnel and he uses oregano oil every day and it actually works well, he got the cortisone shot once and it only lasted three days then his hand started shaking really bad but now they don’t anymore because of the oregano essential oil just thought I’d share that with you or whoever has carpal tunnel 😁 I use Lipton onion soup mix for my green beans and my carrots and it’s so good! Canning is so much fun I really enjoy canning. Once you get passed the intimidation of pressure canning you will be just fine it’s just that first time doing it!
I have heard about that! OK, need to try it. thank you so much!
Healing prayers for you and your family 🙏🙏🌻🌻❤️
I love your videos. I just found your channel. Can you tell me what you use to clean your sink before adding your beans. Thank you!
I love your videos. I am using my PC for the first time canning beans just like you. Unfortunately, i just purchased an All American 915 and just bought new stove GE glass top. My large eye is the perfect size so hopefully wont break. I’ve only had the stove less than a week. I am adding vidalia onions with vegetable broth. My question is would you add the 1/8:tsp of salt? You said seaoning will intensify. Your opinion on adding the salt.
Checking my many bean plants daily...they are so tiny yet but oh boy when they take off! Thank you for sharing 😊
Love the step-by-step step basics, totally inspired planted pole and Bush beans, anxious to can this summer harvest. Blessings.
I was raised just like you so your videos are super helpful. You always have very helpful hint as you go along that gives a great visual. Thank you! ❤️
So funny I have you playing on my iPad and on the tv lol double time 😊👍🏻
Love these beginner videos!
Glad you like them!
I'm canning green beans today too.So glad you are doing videos like these!!! I have canned green beans for several years,but there is always a top of some kind that I get from videos like this,so thank you!!! I raw pack mine too. I don't like the texture of blanched beans when I can either.I have a problem with green beans syphoning.It is the only thing I have trouble with doing that,anything else the headspace comes out perfect.I have tried all the things,but haven't figured out why,but I love watching your canning videos weather I have canned it for years or something new,so thank you!!!
I wonder if it's not so much syphoning as it may be soaking up the water as they cook....do you tightly pack those suckers in the jar? hahaha I noticed if I dont pack them in super tight, I get floating and my headspace will look off. I have competitions with myself on keeping the perfect headspace, and when it's off, it bugs me. A lot. HAHAHAHA
@@TheKneadyHomesteader I will try that.It could be.I know they look pretty good when I take them out and I let the pressure come slowly down and let my canner set for a bit,and after I crack the lid too before I take them out,so that could be a possibility.Yea I do the same.I feel so good when that headspace is right.lol Thanks Heather.😊
I never tried with added onion & pepper. Gonna try today!
Wonderful green beans and i wish I had access to a good farm stand that sells really fresh produce but i find here in N.W. Florida that right now its not cheap just better tasting to can your own and know what is in there. The prep is very important and clean up too, Smashing canning vid Heather xx How's your sister doing ??.
ugh. so sorry to hear your prices are high! Melanie is doing great! Her and her family just spent the weekend here two weeks ago.....we just swam and grilled all weekend! it was so much fun. haha
Wow Heather, I literally canned green beans for the first time yesterday(4/ one and a half pints). A small amount, but so rewarding. If I could have waited just one more day for you, lol.
Same here, I canned green beans for the first time in the wee hours of yesterday morning! lol I harvested about six pounds out of the garden the day before and was able to fill six quarts... Very rewarding.
hahaha we are all canning them together! thats awesome!!!!
Prayers sent.
Great video- especially for a beginner like me!
I love your sink stopper! Where did you get it, please?
I think it came with the sink when we bought the house, but with my brain injuries, I honestly don't remember!
I grew up in town so my mom never canned.Now I'm going to can green beans from the garden.
Thank you for showing us this easy way to can.
Definitely want to can my green beans with those flavors 😋thanks for sharing ❤
Green beans is something I haven't canned yet. I plan to grow several plants, so if they grow well, I'll try canning them up! Yep, I've really only eaten good old DelMonte. Blukk!
Thank you for sharing basic information, I learned how to can mostly from you and all the small things really helped so much!
SO much better to use good shears than a knife! Definitely doing it that way next time!!
so much easier!!!!
You are marvellous a great teacher thank you
Great video,thanks for taking the time to do beginner videos
I’ve always grown up hand snapping our green beans, collecting ends in one hand and beans in the other. When my hands fill, toss them in bowls. Inevitably, somewhere along the way I will loose my rhythm and put the wrong handful in the wrong bowl. 🤦♀️ Now, I have developed trigger fingers in both hands so I might try using my kitchen shears. They look so pretty and it looks easier.
I love your videos. We did buy our shelves at Sams club too. Thank you for sharing your with us. I canned a bushel of green beans yesterday. I still have to wash my jars and put them on my new shelves. Happy canning! Carol in Michigan.
Happy Canning! There is no more of a rewarding sight than seeing your jars of love on those shelves!🥰
I can't wait until I have access to fresh produce. Your green beans look amazing. I would can my veggies in pints because I'm the only one who eats their veggies. My husband's favorite food group is dessert. 😊🥰
The food groups have been reformulated. They are: canned, frozen, drive thru, pick up and instant!😉
Thank you very much for showing how you can green beans. I have been wanting to get started canning and this would be so easy for me! I adore peppercorns and dried onion in my beans, so I'm going to do this too!
If you are a candidate for Carpal Tunnel surgery I would wholeheartedly recommend it. I've had the surgery on both hands. Since I am weird about taking pain killers I didn't take any. The relief from the pain that the carpal tunnel was causing me was well worth it. I only wish I had done it sooner.
I am! But I have 2 friends who had it and are in worse pain than before so I am terrified. I can't function without my hands. They are the hardest working part of my body. haha But I spent over a week braced up unable to move my wrist at all, and in so much pain, that surgery may be the only option for me pretty soon. I appreciate you sharing that with me. Thank you!
I'd like to know what kind of bean seeds you plant. How do you get them to grow in the box? LOL Great video Heather. Even an experienced canner can learn from these vids. I will no longer be blanching my green beans. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
