    Food preservation can definitely be overwhelming so I always enjoy comparing how everyone does it to find what works best for me. Thank you for the tips! God bless you and your family.

    I really appreciate this video, because it emphasizes a point I've only recently and rarely heard from others: start where you are. I want a homestead, I want to be more self-sufficient, etc, but where I live the housing market is not realistic and attainable, so I have to rent. I can't garden, I can't keep chickens, etc. But recently I realized that the homesteading skills I *can* begin with are to preserve food and make healthy, whole food meals. These skills will roll into the larger dream eventually, I'll already be prepared. I make sourdough every few days, I'm starting ferments, I'm making food from scratch more and more, and I plan to use local farms to source bulk produce to preserve even more when the time comes. What I hadn't thought of doing was to forage greens and dehydrate them. I don't have a lot of nettle near me right now, but nipplewort is usually pretty easy to find, so I plan to work on that for the time being. Lastly, thank you again for reminding us one thing at a time. This year it might be only making sauce, next year adding in dehydrated greens, etc. Also thank you for reminding us that u-picks are a great resource for those of us that can't garden our own right now.

    By buying local you will learn when fruits and vegetables are in season so when you start growing yourself you will know what is going to be ready

    great video! I really agree with your perspective. preserving food is better to be in a way you actually like to eat it, otherwise it is such a waste of food. I frees fruits in its peak season (when they cheaper) and use them for smoothies all year round. I also forage and dry verbena leaves for my tea (it is stored great and much cheaper from the verbena teabags from stores) and also the same for Origanum syriacum which is delicious spice. The guest appearance is charming :)

    How do you avoid spraying peaches??? I would love to avoid spraying, but the Japanese Beetles desecrate the entire crop and we haven't had peaches in 8 years

    Can you share where you sourced your peaches?

    Do you have a dehydrator?

    • @FromScratchFarmstead
      @FromScratchFarmstead  10 месяцев назад

      Our oven goes down to 100 degrees so we use it as a dehydrator. We used to have one but it broke!
