***** About Living Traditions Homestead *****
Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out 2 new videos every week! Tuesday and Saturday. We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

I hope you know that a lot of us that do not have the land to garden depend on local farmers selling their excess crops to us. Just letting you know you are very needed and appreciated. I'd much rather go to my local farmers and buy their excess at decent prices than to go to some of the farmers markets and grocery outlets. I've been to some of the Amish auctions and see what the big grocery stores pay these farmers and then see what they sell for in the grocery stores and its NOT the farmers that are making any money from it and they are the ones that NEED to be making money. I don't buy from grocery stores anymore unless absolutely necessary. My hard earned dollars go directly to the actual people growing the produce.......God Bless You
Good harvest.
An FYI to everyone, there are lots of ways to get seeds without actually buying *seeds*. You can save seeds from tomatoes you buy. It's better to save seeds from the farmer's market, that means they are varieties that are adapted to your area. I grew some peanuts I got from the farmer's market. You can also use seeds from birdseed - oil sunflower, field corn, sorghum, millet etc. You can grow them for animal feed or for human food. You can often grow dry beans and whole grains you buy from the store as well. So in an emergency, seeds are not that hard to find. You can even grow indeterminate tomatoes from cuttings. Plus you can grow potatoes and sweet potatoes from tubers from the store. It's always better to get certified "seed" potatoes and sweet potato slips if you can. But if you're really strapped for seed and you want to grow some food, there are many ways of propagating plants. :)
Once you’ve saved enough squash seeds for future planting, save the rest for eating. Roasted squash seeds are quite tasty and nutritious.
being an Avid Gardener and seed saver there is such contentment that comes from growing your own food from seeds you have saved year after year. The Lord's Blessing and bounty is a marvel to behold.
We grew the mammoth gray sunflowers for years. Our tallest was 16'9" but a friend we gave seeds to grew one that was over 17'!
We planted pinto beans in our test garden this year. We literally took some store bought beans from our pantry! We planted 18 individual plants and harvested a little over 2 lbs from them! Now that we know we can grow them, next year we will plant WAY more!!
I haven't visited for a long time. Glad to see you are still vlogging. You picked a great time for homesteading, what with our country moving into a season of judgment. You are good people, and will be well taken care of by our Father.
I had bought alot of seeds before everything went nuts. My plans were to quit driving semi 🚛 & have a garden where I would sell the vegetables. I continued driving for the insurance & payoff my bills & get everything I will need ( hopefully) to not have any expenditures except the normal 1s. Bought the seeds in December & January. I was thankful for that & I'm going to do that again this yr to get a bigger variety of seeds. I'm following another guy he says plant a much variety but not many plants of each. That way if something didn't do well you have others, I may do 100% container due to flooding issues I have. Nice video
I make my own pumpkin pie filling using butternut, pie pumpkins, sweet potato, acorn, sweet dumpling. Roast everything. Puree. Freeze mixture in 3 cups. Really cuts down on adding extra sugar.
I love pinto beans cooked with a ham hock or two (depending on how big a pot of beans I'm cooking) and sometimes a few good shakes of dried, powdered chipotle served in a big bowl over brown rice or cornbread. That's good eating!
Wow!! Lots of squash! We give our mini jersey cow Butterfly a cup of black oil sunflower seeds a day during milking and it really helps increase the cream.. love watching yalls videos.. please continue to pray for us in Louisiana... thank you and God Bless
If you get time, I'd love to watch how to turn the dry beans into refried beans :)
I live in the northern part of Italy, in the alps and my container tomatoes are still producing and my corn too. Though it's raining alot and landslides are happening . Scary but it seems like autumn for 3 days then summer again. Hope to get a bigger garden next year
Ahhh.. ready for an emergenSEED.
What a Fantastic Harvest. I am so very Glad you are sharing this with us. THANK YOU.
Good morning 🌞. Seed saving is more important than ever. Your harvest is beautiful. Have a great weekend. God bless
Id love to see a seed saving video and maybe an update of what does and doesn't work too :)
Enjoyed coming along as you worked.
Hi Sarah and Kevin! Glad to see you are safe from the hurricane. I’ve been a subscriber for a few months now and have binge watched much of your videos! Sarah turned me onto pressure canning. My senior parents warned me that it would explode, but she put my mind at ease. I’ve started my own pantry of emergency food: canned chicken, canned beets (beef borscht, actually. Hint: you RAW pack it!...after peeling the beets), spicy pickled cauliflower, canned berries (we have Honeyberries/Haskap berries, locally), chicken bone broth, beef bone broth, and Kevin taught me how to make bread! There’s no stopping me now! Your videos are very nice to watch and I know you work really hard on them and your Homestead. Keep living the dream!
