This is why planting and growing for yourself is so crucial this year and beyond. I feel we are in the beginning stages of a depression, no matter what the people in charge of telling us. My favorite laundry detergent, my favorite dishwashing tabs have all risen by five dollars or more. I just started making my own for a fraction of the cost and it is so much better than store-bought. My cleaners are simply orange, peel, soaked in vinegar and then diluted by water, my bathroom cleaner is Pine needles and branches infused and rubbing alcohol from the $1.25 store but next time I’m just going to use straight vinegar or apple cider vinegar because I forage wild apples to put up all of my Apple goodies and all the peels and cores I used to make my own apple cider vinegar so literally cost me nothing and this is why WE ALL need Think outside of the box because we can pretty much make everything that we buy from the store.. I actually am seriously thinking about starting a RUclips channel just so that people know how to save money. I’ve been living the frugal lifestyle for over 20 years and never because I had to I just chose to.
Sounds good! All the store products are toxic anyway.
Please do start your channel, I would love to be able to make my own apple cider vinegar, shampoo, cleaners etc.
Lelani as a fellow Christian myself (and in the state located right next to PA, when you have complete Faith and Trust in Christ Jesus, God will provide for you what you need even during high inflation periods.
Take this as words of encouragement.
If your garden isn't big, it's most likely because God has determined that's its already all you need.
You are blessed to even have a garden at all. I live in an apartment with no terrace at all and im ok with that
I'm in California. I have no choice but to cut back. I'm at the point where I have to make do or do without. My patio has become a a little patio garden. I'm growing Peppers and herbs to start. Maybe next year I can get some bigger pots and do some carrots and some other things. The sweet pepper here are expensive. I also just saw Aldi is cutting the price of 250 store items to help customers. I had to go to Aldi today. It was much cheaper than anywhere else. I can cobble meals together with their weekly sale items. Hope everyone is doing well, and don't fret, we can Make it Make 💖💖
I feel for you.. my son, his wife and 3-young children are having a very hard time to making ends meet. My son works as much overtime as he can get working around his wife's schedule so one of them are home to watch the munchkins. I can stretch a penny but my son saids mom we dont have time.. if you think like this then its not good. In their situation its the little things that will add up in freeing up more money.. Buying take out food so you end up working 2-3hrs to pay for it makes no sense to me.. cooking once and eating twice 3-4 times a week will save them at least $400 a month or more. Opening up the windows at night and closing first thing in the morning will help save on your electric.. where they are located they could grow food several months out of the year.. hanging clothes on a outside line..things are about to get much more expensive in Cali with the new gas tax.. I wish they would just sell their home and move where the cost of living is 50% less.. and their professions they can work anywhere. I wish you the best.
I make my own laundry powder with 1 box Borax and 1 box washing soda. I use 1/4 cup on a load and it works far better than any purchased laundry powder.
I never buy packaged food. I make everything from scratch.
I grow as much of my own food as I can manage in a small garden. I succession sow. When one thing comes out, another goes in.
If I need fast food, I buy a rotisserie chicken from Walmart and a package of buns or bread rolls. Hot chicken sandwiches are delicious and healthy and it cost around $10 for 6 people!
What is washing soda,I keep seeing it on other sites,but they will never explain what it is?
@@tinagriffith500 I believe it is baking soda, heat treated. You find it in the laundry isle. It is sold as a laundry booster.
Currant tomatoes are pea size super sweet, Dr Wyche and Kellogg's Breakfast are large yellow slicers, Amish Paste are very large paste, San marzano are large cylinder shaped paste tomatoes. Brandy wine are one of my favorite large slicing tomatoes. Paul Robeson is a purple medium size slicer that has tons of umami flavor.....smoky,sweet,acidic hard to describe the awesomeness!
As someone who has just started food preservation and canning, I have enjoyed your videos. The canning videos have helped me tremendously! Many blessings your way ❤!
She is very helpful an inspirational,
I was at Walmart over the weekend and one watermelon costs $9.48. Central Indiana. I have planted a garden but I’m already seeing some damage from pests and germination problems. I am not a professional gardener, but the One who spun the stars into place created a perfect garden “back in the day…day one”…and so I am trusting Him to bring the yield 💙💜
BE SURE TO SAVE SEEDS FROM YOUR FAVORITE ONES FOR NEXT YEAR.....Are you in PA?...I drove through last week...so beautiful
Withregards to saving money on cleaning products, vinegar. 50/50 5% vinegar and water for basic cleaning, including a persons body. Then increasing it to straight 5% vinegar cleaning more stubborn surfaces. Baking soda can be mixed in a water vinegar solution too, but will have an initial foaming reaction, but can be helpful with cleaning. Most of the soaps/ detergents, etc, have cancer causing/ bad for our health like agents, that shouldn’t be touching our skin and being absorbed into our bodies. Vinegar and sodium bicarbonate are benign in general. Switching over to vinegar will save money for sure. Great channel, had noticed your canning vids, good stuff, thank you.

for your next tomato planting, you can take down their lower leaves and plant them reaaaaally deep because tomatoes can grow roots from their stems. this way you can get stronger plants :) also, make sure to water them very heavily after planting. you can mulch them with wood chips/dried hay so the soil can retain more water and you can go more without watering or get them through better in a drought.
I feel you so deeply on the inflation/cost of living topic, even though I live on almost the other side of the world (in Hungary) but it looks like we have the same issues... I always budget and I get a really decent salary (compared to others in Hungary), but I still struggle after paying my loan, buying food, paying the bills... and it is so tiring to be honest, I just want to not think about paying for a new book or sg :D
Yes, Kellogg’s Breakfast is an heirloom tomato developed in West Virginia. They are large yellow tomatoes.
Amish Stores carry soap bars and things. You could check there for bargains. Maybe the ingredients to make your own soaps?
I agree with others on here. Citrus peals soaked in vinegar even removes Hard Scale built up! Awesome cleaning stuff! And basically Free, IF you make your own! Another lady I watch, makes vinegars even out of flowers and pine needles and much more!
It is just my daughter and myself. I do the most of my grocery shopping at Aldi's. I buy frozen vegetables, butter, ice cream, bread, cleaning products and most fresh veggies there. I do not like their meats, but most of their other products are cheaper than the chain markets. As for meat, I have been buying it from OMAHA Steaks. They often offer deals that are very good, in my opinion. The portions are just the right size for me and my daughter. I've found that we have much less waste, therefore, save money. I do have a large garden and can, freeze or dehydrate many of my herbs and veggies. This year I plan on making and canning tomato paste.
The Black Brandywine Tomato is an heirloom tomato. They are fantastic for Tomato sandwiches. Save the seeds. Paul Robeson is similar. You're going to love them..
I have gotten to where I buy nothing until it's on sale, and then I buy a little extra. I'm starting to get a small stock pile. I went to Kroger today to get their bogo on meat. I bought about $150 in meat, by the time I was done cutting it down into meals, I filled the freezer with about 6 weeks of dinners at about $3.40 per meal. And most will have leftovers for lunch the next day. They were the best deals I've gotten in over a year.
Great job frugal shopping!
Amish paste - delicious and good for sauce - brandywine yummy- San Marzano - good sauce tomato. The other ones - no idea. But hey free tomatoes are awesome tomatoes. PS I’m only about 40 mins away from you. Good luck with your garden
I know the names of those tomatoes except one. When I plant a variety of different tomatoes they are separated from each other well to prevent cross pollination. I seed collect to grow the following year.
I grew Amish Paste for first time last year. I really like that tomatoe as much as San Manzano for making sauce.
I place my trellis system up for my tomatoes while they are young to keep from disturbing the roots later. Not sure what method you will be using.
Growing vegetables, fruit and herbs at home is awesome and seed saving. The flavor is so much better than anything store bought.
I added black consort currant berry plants last year. I use them to make blueberry currant jelly. Not easy locating currant berries in my state.
Happy Gardening!!!
Great variety of tomatoes. It’ll be fun to see what you get. I totally agree with being thankful. More than ever, I’m thankful for my home. I can’t imagine having to buy a home right now, with the high costs and the high interest rates!!
Kelloggs breakfast is a yellow tomato. I've grown all of those they are great.
They have very interesting tomato plant names.
Purple hue on leaves usually means needs fertilizer, but I think I only saw 1 purple leaf. i think u need to water those transplants in
Always enjoy your presence on you tube keep it coming keep looking up you're in good Hands 👍🌹
You have hit the jackpot of tomato plants! All very good varieties! You will enjoy them all immensely! 😊
I love that you support the Amish and can get your organic food that way. What a great symbiotic relationship. I also got the Amish canning book and love it!
Im so thankful that Hod has provided for our every need, and quite a few wants. I have a full freezer and shelves of food. I'm only buying a gew things and still spend so much. Im hoping my harden takes off again this year. I've had a few disappointing failures to germinate/grow/thrive veggies, but I'm going to be patient and what doesnt produce what I need, I'll be hitting up the local farmstands.
Kellogg’s Breakfast is the BEST tasting tomato ever! At least it is for me, in my hot arid climate. Every climate grows each type differently, so you might like others better. It is a large yellow/orange tomato, so it will be a while before they are ripe. That was so sweet of your neighbor to give you the plants. You pronounced all the tomato names very well!
I’m gardening for the first time no pressure just seeing if I can grow anything and getting super excited to see my carrots pumpkins potatoes and onions coming up 😳🤗
Yes Kellogg breakfast is a tomato it's an heirloom
Hello from PR🇵🇷. Yes there is a sweet pea currant tomato, and also Kellogg's breakfast tomato. Amish paste is similar to roma tomatoes. San marzano also similar to roma and amish paste. Also may I ask which growing zone you are in?
I finally got up the courage to try my home canned beef for my dogs and chipotle beef for my own use and we are all well and still alive today, it tasted very good.. Thank you as you keep doing the water bath canning.
Those Dr. Wyche tomatoes get pretty big and are orange and look a bit like pumpkins to me. Very cool!
Inflation has certainly gotten out of control. It’s hard to come up with a good solutions anymore. Where “we” both live, there is lots of inspiration to see our Amish neighbors working so hard with such basics that provides such plenty at harvest. I recognized the Longenecker’s hardware shirt some time ago and the Kreider farm tower today. Hopefully I can see you out and about to say hi and good on ya for your work you share in videos 😊
Someone may have already commented but Amish paste tomatoes are Roma tomatoes and san marzanos originated in Italy I believe in the San marzano region and according to some famous chefs are the best tomatoes to use for pizza sauce. Happy gardening! I will be planting Amish paste tomatoes for the first time this year and can’t wait to turn some into tomato paste and can it up!
I agree with some above comments. My faith in God renews my spirit each time I get to thinking about inflation. I am about to retire and looking to relocate either back to Pa or NC. I am grateful for my years of couponing because it helps me now and in the future. Prayers for your harvest! I do rhe community gardening and just getting started this week!
Kellogg's Breakfast are large delicious tomatoes, I love them for BLT sandwiches. San marzano are in the shape of plum tomatoes, except bigger and are usually used to make home made tomato sauce. At least, that's what our family uses them for...It was passed down traditions by my grandmother from Naples Italy.
Amish paste is an old heirloom Roma tomato, you will be glad she gave it to you when you are harvesting them. The Robison is also an heirloom tomato dating back to the early 1900's, a delicious slicing tomato. Good Luck!
I just love sitting down and tucking in with your videos they are always so relaxing.
If you’d like to share content on your rosemary hair wash I’m sure we’d all love it.
We’ll be up in Montgomery County beginning of July, that’s where my husband is from ☮️ 💜😊
Not gonna lie! I love that she used plastic cups to start her seeds! I use my creamer and coffee containers to start my plants. My husband and I just purchased 10 acres and it's been a hard time getting the county to come out and fix the ditches so they drain properly and so the property will drain and we can start our gardens
Hope you situation gets resolved soon. That’s a nice amount of land to do wonderful farming on.
Yes ma'am. The Kelloggs Breakfast is a real tomato. Very tasty. You did just fine. I love growing all kinds of fruits and veggies!!! Those are gonna do great!!! I grew my whole garden this year for the very first time all by myself. So awesome. Great video
Yes, there is a Kellog Breakfast!! Almost a peach color.
Nice, the San Marzano I hear about. Italians use this tomato to make the best sauce
Those are some really good tomato varieties, very nice neighbor!
As for inflation, here in the UK everything is going up as well. Especially fresh vegetables, even if they're not imported from the European continent. That's why I try to grow as much a I can in my little garden and preserve it as best I can. And my garden is probably handkerchief size compared to yours. The other thing I try to do, when possible, is to shop around and make the most of special offers and in particular markdown vegetables, fruit and herbs. I even saved seeds from reduced in price premium tomatoes this winter and sowed them this spring. A few of them have germinated and I cannot wait how they will grow and what they might produce. Personal sanitary stuff I thankfully don't need anymore being close o 60 yes old. Tho yeah, money can be tight but there are ways around making it work for you. That's what I learned from my late Dad anyway. Like if something tempts you in the shop,ask yourself ' do I Really need this?' 'is it necessary?' If not, leave it, go home, think about it. If you still want it the next day, ok buy it. But I bought some many things over the decades which I now regret having spend good money on. If it's not necessary for your survival or you can, to steal your phrase Make it make, save your cash for something you cannot make yourself. There's always a way young lady. Bless you.
I think those names are legit. The Paul Roberson has different leaves I think. You may wish there was more room between them but you should get tomatoes!!😊
I've been dehydrating herbs and picking kale and Swiss chard
Laundry detergent. One tablespoon each of baking soda and borax. I/2 cup of distilled vinegar. Saves a lot of money and get the clothes clean
San Marzono is a Roma tomato - great for paste or sauce. 😊
Thank you for the video. I enjoy and look forward to your posts. Like you, I feel very blessed with a roof over my head, food on the table and love in my life. These are challenging times and all we can do is look to the Father and be grateful because it can always get worse. Prayers for a bountiful harvest of tomatoes from your plants. God bless!
To keep costs down vote in November........
Great video🌱🍅 you have a beautiful flat yard,perfect for badminton and Bochy ball . Blessings 🙏❤
Oregano is a perennial in most states in case you didn’t know that.
Every one of those tomatoes are correct, I've grown most of them at one time or another. Amish paste and San Marzano are plum tomatoes, good for tomatoe paste. Kellogs breakfast is a yellow as is Dr Wyches and both are huge beefsteak. Paul Robeson is a favourite of mine and It can be misshapen, but has a fabulous taste.
I'm growing Black Krim, Tigerella and Roma this year inside and Crimson Crush outside as it's blight resistant. You have more room than me, I have to limit my efforts every year. Good luck, Keep watering them regular, no skipping.
I make hundreds of meals from my garden, but I live alone. Learn what to grow that need little attention and what you like. I grow things that are expensive to buy, but I like them. French Beans are a winner, I'm still eating last years crop from the freezer HUGE CROP :)
So I think I remember you saying you’re from Pa. I’m not sure what Amish community you are close too. If you’re near Shady Maples there is a great great discount store called bbzzzz. My spelling not theirs..lol If you’ve never been there you must try it. Deodorant, shampoo, medicine, fruit, meat, canned goods…you name it they have it! Unbelievable deals. Not by a little, you save a ton!!
Amish paste is a Roma tomato. Black brandywine is a purple tomato
Start small and expand a little every year as it works out for you. Make it make.
Yes those are tomato names lol. Fertilizer is key.
I learned that the Amish tomatoes need to be picked before they're ripe. Then let them ripen in the sun or on the counter. I hoe this will help
Love your Beautiful heart & attitude!❤ And love your videos!😁
Very nice, it's never to late to plant a garden, we also can do fall planting, like onions ,kale, turnips, radishes, lettuce, spinach. Am in zone 7, right now , I have onions, okra, radishes, garlic, cantaloupe, tomato's are growing from seed....👍❤️🌹
Yes there is a Kellogg’s Breakfast tomato. I’ve never had luck with those though. They aren’t very disease resistant and I’ve never been able to harvest any. I live in zone 5b, not sure if that makes a difference.
We support our Amish, but we do have tomato plants, pepper plants, black eyed butter beans. Along with basil, rosemary, lavender. How do you do your rosemary water?
Those are all actual tomatoes, jess from Roots and refuge farms has grown them all.
How do you use rosemary’s in your hair?
I love your videos, i have learned so much. I camp a lot for long stretches at a time. My water bath pot goes wit me. Lol
Thank you
Yes everything is so expensive. Monthly water bill is ridiculous. We cut use. Use very little amount of laundry soap an only vinegar for rinse. God is good an yes so thankful for all
The tomato plants look good.
She gave you a bunch of nice heirlooms .
Definitely know of the Amish paste tomatoes supposedly from the Amish community initially with the 'paste' (drier) type tomatoe for sauces etc
And the San Marsano (how ever that's spelled properly) BUT this one is the one that is from Italy?? originally and is the common one for making tomato sauces over there (and now here)
I also make my own detergent.
God bless us all... for all the little things add up 🙏
Soap? You should make soap my darling girl with lard or tallow, even shampoo I make.
Haha yes Kelloggs breakfast is a real name of a tomato
dig up the rosemary plant and roots and replant elsewhere. :) keep on doing what you are doing. and yes, have fun!!!!!!!!!!
My friend is making her laundry soap for 10.00 and oatmeal bath soap. Shes said the bath soap is so wonderful to use. She wants to trade canned goods for soap.. But I want her to show me how she makes her laundry soap
I too am thankful for what I have it could be so much worse.
I think San Marzano is a paste tomato but not 100 %sure.
Get you some wood chips and mulch those babies 4". You will barely have to water OR weed!
I've never done it, but I bet some people make their own deodorant, shampoo, etc...
Honestly, my saving grace these days has been to order bulk organic food from Azure Standard. So grateful for it!
San marzano is also a great one
I’m so glad I found your channel last week!! I just started water bath canning for the very first time a few days ago! I’ve used your w.b. canning videos as a teaching tool. You do things the “ old” way ( rebel canning) which I love!! I’ve been canning vegetable’s and soup mainly. I’m really trying hard to can “ meals in a jar” just incase there is a food shortage. I have canned some diced chicken breast, and mixed vegtables for my dog. She’s on prescription dog food, as she lacks the enzyme to digest fat. I supplement her dog food with boneless/skinless chicken breast and mixed vegs. Quick question! I diced raw chicken up into bite size pieces ( she’s a small dog), and mixed it with frozen mixed vegtables. I processed it for three hours. The chicken basically disintegrated into what looks like small fibers.
Is there any way to prevent that?? I figured it’s most likely because I cut the pieces relatively small, and it was a three hour process time.
Watching this video gave me the motivation to plant my garden tomorrow!! It’s probably too late for me to start by seed, but I’ll buy some vegetable plants that are already started!! Better late than never!! ❤❤❤ blessings to you!!
I've heard that one tomato pronounced "Dr Witchy". The others were right, as far as I could tell, but I've never heard of a kelloggs one. 😂 Not sure about it!
Jessica Sowards from Roots and Refuge started everyone calling it Dr. “Witchy”, but that’s not the correct pronunciation. I think it’s more like Dr. Wikes”.
Can you tell me if you’ve ever canned Onions? If so, do they loose their bite-taste?
Hi I love your channel!! I wondered… why do your videos not so how many likes you have?
How to can beets and turnips
Doctor Witchy is a tomato name.
I absolutely love your videos! Growing your own food and learning how to be more self substantial is detrimental during these times. Food on the shelf at this moment is more valuable than money in the bank our faith in Jesus Christ assures us that He will provide for us. We are a family of 9 and we live very low maintenance learned how to make our own soaps medical medicine, canning, making our own colloidal silver, growing our own food building what what we need from free pallets not partaking in any worldly holidays but being set apart we have to remember we are in this world but not of it. It’s okay to want less and to have less. God bless you brothers and sisters in Christ and whatever you do do it with your whole heart. Keep enduring until the end keep looking up Jesus Christ will be returning soon.
I but al my personal care products lijke soap, deordent, tooth paste, dish liquid abd ect. At dollar tree.
Praying for America and Israel!!!!!!!!!
I love your heart
You do you and I l'll do me make it as big as you want.
Amen, I feel the same I thank our Lord and Savior for everything He has given me. 👍💕🌱🙏🙋🏻♀️
❤❤
🙏
Christ, share our prayers with our Father.
Heavenly Father,
May we be humbled by your Greatness and your Grace.
May we offer to you our sacrifices, that you will forgive our faults.
Guide us as we walk with our Neighbors, that your Love will be seen in us, through our Choices.
Remind us that you are with us, always and that you carry us through hardship.
Thank you, Father.
Amen 🙏
