- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- In this video, we are on day 8 of the #everybitcountschallenge, where we are focusing on making the most of our resources and minimizing waste. Join us as we take you on a full tour of our modern homestead working pantry, showcasing how we store and organize our food supplies.
We also show you the process of freeze-drying some goodies to preserve them for later use. Additionally, we demonstrate how we freeze-dry fresh herbs to have on hand for winter teas and other recipes.
Watch as we make the most of our pantry space and find creative ways to extend the life of our food. Follow along as we continue to find new ways to make every bit count in our homestead journey.

I live in the suburbs with a small yard, big gardens aren’t an option. But I did make an awesome batch of strawberry jams from frozen strawberries (the huge bag from Costco). So many options available for those who can’t or don’t have the space for big gardens 😊
I love to see anyone do it anyway they can! That’s what it’s all about
Same. Live in suburbs of Florida. My husband loves his St. Augustine grass and white vynl fence. I did however get some pavers and put vertical gardens (Green Stalks) here and there. I have ammased over a years worth of many herbs. I have grown carrots and canned them, tomatoes in grow bags on a paver, peppers, one watermelon this year, bush green beans. I wish I had room for raised beds but I thought if i can spread out someone has got to have a garden that will go vertical. Just one Green Stalk can grow so much and in Florida only June, July and August are super hot and that is my “winter”.
That is fantastic! Think i might give that a try!
@@OrdinaryOwensI love my greenstalks up here in Ohio. I can place them where I want sun or shade or a bit of both😊
I am so going to do the freeze dried beets! Thank you for sharing❤
They are so good beyond what I expected
What amazing pantry !
And what a pleasure to manage from the seed to the meal...Satisfaction for the soul 😊
It really is! Thank you
I use my herbs, and when i run out, Azure usually has it to help me out til next season. I have binge watched from 1-8 GREAT videos and amazing information!!! Thank you!
Oh wow what a blessing to have someone binge watch us! Thank you

My gal friend always canned her pie fillings. (She passed). But her family still enjoys her pantry.
Love it that’s so nice to pass it down
Love this challenge . You are so organized ! Thank you for sharing! 🌿🪴🌿
Thank you! 🤗
Good morning, love your pantry
Thank you! 🤗 good morning to you
Don't worry about the empty jars as it's the season to fill them with garden produce!! Thank you for another wonderful video! Bless you and the family and I will see you the next one!!
Yes! Thank you! I agree now is the season
I LOVE HOW YOU EXPLAIN WHAT AND HOW YOU ARE DOING. TEACHING AS YOU ARE PREPARING FOR THE COMING YEAR.
I appreciate that!
Love your overalls, I have literally every color I can get my hands on!! Thank you for sharing this info it’s so helpful to us new homesteaders!!
Oh I love them too! I wait and get them off the clearance rack
Hi Jessica. I loved this.
Thank you so much
thak you , great to watch as always
Glad you enjoyed it
Dehydration cooks the food to dry it out, and doesn't last as long. Great for Jerkey, fruit, fruit leather and herbs. I have found it does change the color and taste. Where freeze drying pulls all the water and once you put water on it, it goes back to its per processed form, texture and taste.
I decided today to both freeze dry something and also dehydrate
I always love a good pantry tour! Okay, I am going to have to try the roasted, freeze dried beets. I would love to surprise my mother with a jar of those! She loves beets. And, herbs! Oh, my!! Great job, Jessica! God bless you all!
They are honestly so good
So interesting. 😊❤
Glad you think so!
Pickled cauliflower is really good.
❤️
❤
🥰❤️
Lovely tour
Thanks for visiting
Oh my goodness!! Your pantry is amazing 🤩🤩!! I loved this video of how you and your kid (s) helped build it. What a smart idea! Each and every time I see you and the pantry long term and short term I am so impressed. All that hard work you put into it and then you do one of your cooking videos it all comes together and makes sense! I am so interested in your freeze dryer! And I want to learn more about it. I just turned 67 and plan on retiring in about 1 1/2 years and my sister and I want to put in a hugh garden. We live 13 miles from town. She has chickens and raises a few cattle in which she shares with the brothers, sisters and kids. I have been buying things like a sun powered generator and several pounds of freeze dried foods in the milored (sp) bags from 4 patriots ever since COVID. And evertime I go to the dollar store to get my cat her treats I pick up a bundle of toilet paper. I just remembered how empty all the shelves were and i never want that feeling of despair to happen again! And I have wanted to buy a freeze dryer so my sister and I can put up years of canned goods along with meats, chicken soups and beef soups. When I first saw you freeze dry your eggs it was like a light bulb went off in my head! But I wonder with me being 67 and my sister being 71 would it be worth me buying one. Then I thought about buying an used one. I just don't know! Any thoughts? I could really use some. But you young lady just inspire me!! I love your videos and getting to watch what you and your husband do during all of the different seasons. Please keep the videos coming and I'll keep watching them!
Oh yeah, I keep forgetting to ask you, have you bred Peaches yet? She is so pretty.
You truly think it all through! I love that! It’s takes way more planning than anyone can imagine! Thank you so much you are so kind
Jess, do I remember you (or someone) saying that freeze drying concentrates the sugars and other flavors? Love watching your videos, especially the fishing ones. (Hey, I'm a guy. 😅)
No not me, I wonder if it dies now that you said that
Wow I get to see you twice today. I love your pantry. Wish mine was upstairs but that’s ok I’m lucky to have one. Jessica can ask where you get your headbands. They are beautiful and I’d like to get some. Thanks. Thank you for sharing. See you again soon✌️🌸
Love it!! Thank you so much
I have made brownies with beets. They are actually very good. Got my pickiest grandchild to like beets now..lol
Love it I’m excited for it
Hi sweet one! As usual I am impressed by your pantry...so well organized! I bet those beets were extra sweet! Have you heard of Thrive Life? They offer freeze dried, organic fruits, vegetables, etc for great prices. I know you don't need them, but they are really great for those without gardens who want to store food. Beautiful herbs!!! Great video! Big hugs and many blessings!
Oh thank you so much my friend I so much appreciate it
Bert was so unbothered. 😂 Beautiful harvest! 😊🙏🏻💜
I know I love him he always even when you don’t see him right there next to my feet
Hi Jessica and sweet family! I just love your pantry, it would be a dream come true. My pantry was downstairs and I don’t do stairs because my staircase light is blown and I don’t have a way to change the bulb and nobody around here wants to do it.
My pantry was a farmer’s pantry, lol.
I hope you and everyone have a very blessed day! ❤️
Thank you friend! If I lived close I would change it for you!
@@modernhomesteadalaska bless you and thank you ❤️
Do you have a church family member that could help you with it or any friends that have kids that would help you? I wish I lived closer for I too would help change the bulb for you.
@@sitioeb thank you, but it is high above the steps and you can’t put a ladder on the steps without a special stabilizer made for steps. Have a blessed day!
Always love to see your pantry ! I dehydrate my herbs and stuff , would love a freeze dryer but not an option at the moment anyway lol love the everything counts challenge 😊
Thank you so much
I like your canning labels. How did you make them? Lovely pantry, very inspiring 😊
My neighbor makes them
@modernhomesteadalaska my daughter makes those very labels for me with her cricut and mails them up from TX to AK for me. ❤
Your dog covered in herbs 😂😂 my dog does the same thing, she will always lay inches away from what I'm working on
lol he is my favorite
You are so blessed with beautiful storage 🙏
Yes I am! Thank you
Wonderful pantry and use of preserving food
Thank you so much
Your hair looks amazing!!! I love you confidence in trying to cook new things from scratch.
Thank you
I love that black flowered head band. Beautiful, good video.
Thank you so much
Wow! No food shortage in your home!!! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you we do try
The last time I saw your pantry, it was mostly store bought stuff and now it has so much more home canned, home grown, homemade, organic, staples and goodies!! You are getting closer and closer to self-sufficiency every year! It is so beautiful to watch your journey! P.S. Chervil is pronounced like SHER-vul.
Oh nice thank you so much
Hi Jessica! Loving this challenge! Daily posts! Yeah!
Thank you so much
I was the same way with canned potatoes! I didn’t grow up with them but canned some when I had a giant Sam’s Club bag that I needed to preserve. Now, canned potatoes are my go too. Besides frying them, I also roast them in a 425 oven, and air fry them. I’ve even started cutting them into French fry shapes and then I have instant fries to throw in the air fryer! ❤❤❤
They are sooo good!
4th bay top- wine 🍷 bottle maybe needs to be lower during earthquake??
Cauliflower- raw with a sour cream dip.
Sour cream
Dry onions
Garlic salt
Salt n pepper
Dill
Thanks for the tips!
Love your pantry! What type of shelving is that. Absolutely love it
Just pieces of the closet type boards we cut to size
@@modernhomesteadalaska and it holds all that weight? The actual shelves with the jars sit on are those three-quarter inch?
You are set with herbs for some time to come!! I have one of the counter top grow gardens that I start in September and it gets me through until spring. It is hydroponic.
The pantry is looking good and picture ready.
Get some buckets out to catch the rain. It makes superb indoor plant water. Stores well in gallon milk jugs. I have a friend, as long in the tooth as me, who uses rain water as her final rinse when she washes her hair.
Until our next visit, keep up the productivity!! ❤Momma G
I love it! That’s a great way todo it! I need a little garden like that
Thank you for the information on the apron, I have looked far and wide for a set of copper cannisters, would you mind terribly if I asked where you go the set? You guys are a wealth of knowledge!
Oh those we actually won, one at a time! I did business development for the mining industry and we won them at events and they don’t have labels on them.
@@modernhomesteadalaska they are definitely gorgeous!
I love canned potato! No waste and so convenient
I seriously love it
I really enjoyed this video a lot. Thank you ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Love to watch you thank you
Thank you
Flat leaf parsley is my favorite along with basil.
Love it!
I've just recently found your channel and I'm really enjoying your content and presentation. Thank you!
Awesome, thank you!
I've been freeze drying my whole garden. You should try salting some cucumber chips and freeze drying them. They're so so good
Enjoyed the video 😊
Glad you enjoyed
Cilantro is my absolute favorite herb. Grows here like a weed. I need to start preserving it and put it in salt like your onion and garlic scapes. Do you know if I can dehydrate it for that? Love your headband. Sorry they won't give us the vendor........BOOOOOOOO
Oh yeah that sounds yummy!
A nice pantry like this does take work to maintain it but we'll worth the effort
Yes it does! Thanks bill
One of the lady homesteaders I follow showed how she canned potatoes without liquid to use for fried potatoes & other things. I was amazed.
I did see some of that before
@@modernhomesteadalaska
Oops! she did use a little liquid, sort of. She added melted butter, salt & pepper.

Hello Friend !
Hello! So glad you came back
@@modernhomesteadalaska I’ve been here for every video ! Always ! 😊
send me somerainhere in southern nevaa
On its way make it stop
Jessica, could you please tell me about the cart that your freeze dry sits on. The brand and where you purchased it. I have mine on a cart but it is getting wobbly. I love all the storeage that yours has. Thanks a bunch!!
www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-40-in-2-Drawer-Steel-Work-Cart-48-22-8590/308327335
It’s this it fits exactly and I use the drawer for supplies. It’s expensive but it totally rolls with no issues. And fits it exactly and it is made for that much weight.
@modernhomesteadalaska Thank you very much! It is worth the investment! I have purchased 2 different ones, and over time have gotten wobbly.
What's the best way to store rice for long-term? Please could you help me understand how to do this.
Yes! And I’m making a video on it this week too! Mylar with oxygen absorbers.

So you dehydrate many things or are you only freeze drying? I wasn’t to the part where you talk about dehydrating. Unfortunately as a retired couple freeze drying is out of our budget.
I do both. I’m just trying todo better with the freeze dryer because I have it I need to use it or it’s sort of waisted. But I’m currently doing both today
What were you pointing at and saying you would use for dog food? I don’t want to can something no one will eat, we don’t have pets to pass on to. 🤣
lol it’s fish in water gross!
But with some rice and greens the dogs love love love it!
@@modernhomesteadalaska so I may want to reconsider canning raw salmon with jalapeno and/or spices is what I’m hearing.
