It makes me sad that there are people who would criticize you for buying some products instead of making your own. It makes me even sadder that you feel you have to explain yourself. What you do for your family is incredible and should only be applauded and admired. Please ignore anything negative. You are an amazing woman, mother, and wife. Don't let anyone tell you anything different.
**Perfectly Said 😉💭, Truth**
I agree 💯👍🏻 Ppl 🚫 judge anyone 😢, Only God Can Judge Us 😭🙏🏻❣️...
Yes and Amen 🙏🏾
AMEN!
They must be jealous and feel inadequate, because this woman is a non-stop force of nature for her family. I do a tiny bit in comparison to her and I’m a health food nut and an herbalist. She’s amazing ❤.
This young lady is a blessing and I appreciate all she does to support her family and is willing to share with us ..she is a great educator & has many ideas/knowledge to share to make our homes stronger & more independent❤❤🙏🙏👍👍🥰
That store bought shelf is tiny and understandable, I love Tamari, Stubbs, and Louisiana hot sauce. 😂 it’s ok 👌 when 97 percent of what y’all are eating is made and grown by your hands or grown by reputable growers! Any criticism is just jealousy due to feeling inadequate to all you do, you are super mom , wonder woman! Bravo 👏🏽 ❤
❤ I am an 80 year old woman who is one of eight children I want to tell you that I am so extremely extremely proud of you and the work you do for your family. Take care of yourself and all those sweet babies they are a gift from God. Keep up the excellent work and the positive attitude.
Thank you so much!!
I agree with you whole heartedly. She is a gem.

You better not ever apologize to anyone about how you run your household. Whoever has a problem….it’s THEIR problem and they need to move on. Your video is part on my Sunday morning routine-so there’s that😀.
Amen! Jessica you are an amazing mom, wife and overall human being. ♥️
I totally agree! 🤗🤗
100% why must some be rude and disrespectful. Just sad
11 Sept 2024, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge & experience with us. Fabulous job. You are a great inspiration for everyone. I am working on trying to find storage for all the things I want to preserve... Please do not pay attention to those with nasty comments
My parents had a cellar just like that. Makes me miss them even more…
Never ceases to amaze me that people think they have the right to criticize something as simple as taco sauce or hot sauce.
With everything going on in the world today it’s refreshing to see a loving, wholesome family that genuinely like each other. Keep being you. Your children seem delightful, hard working, loving and bright. You obviously are doing a wonderful job.
Thank you for the kindness and encouragement ❤️
@@rebelragz9431 you read my mind.
Nobody gets Everything their way in a successful partnership/marriage. 🥰🥰
I agree. Jessica is amazing
It blows my mind that you can homeschool your beautiful children, cook, clean, and preserve all of the bounty. It's simply amazing. God bless you and your family. ❤😊
Thank you so much!
I cannot fathom that anyone would have the audacity to criticise a single decision your family makes!! You are an absolute inspiration for all of your physical hardwork, your administrive hardwork, your emotional hardwork that you do day in & day out. And you are generous & gracious enough to share that with all of us. You share practical & encouraging help to so many of us enough to get a weekly glimpse into your life. And I appreciate you so much ❤ I live in Queensland within a subtropical climate of Australia & we are heading into our non existant spring season & are prone to cyclones/storms/bushfires so our garden is very different to yours but your tips are nonetheless so helpful. Buy whatever you & your family want, you earn every dollar ❤ Thankyou Jessica for the joy being in this online community brings me 🌻💗✝️🇦🇺
❤❤❤
Easy, families are the foundations of society, so how a family operates will reflect on society.
pausing video to say My Goodness your hair is GORGEOUS!
Thank you so much 😊
You have accomplished more than ten ladies put together. Hold your head up high! Wonderful job!
I will never criticize anyone for what they feed their family. We all have food allergies or preferences. I love your meal prep and the creativity you show especially with your son’s food allergies and diet restrictions. Keep providing us with fabulous meals and content. ❤
Jessica you look beautiful, healthy, and happy! Thank you for sharing God’s bounty and your diligence in taking care of it for your family. I love your channel and pray for you often!
Thank you 😊
Great pantry tour. I try to cover my family’s needs for one year with home canned organic foods from our farm. My oldest son is a chef and the meals we whip up are amazing to me. I’m always astonished how much you are able to get done with little ones swirling about. Families are such a blessing.
I’m stunned and amazed that people would give you or anyone grief about what they have in their pantry. It’s nobody’s business. Your house, your rules. I doubt the naysayers could hold a candle to your work ethic and the obvious love and joy you give to your family. Thank you. I love your dust.
You are an inspiration! Never EVER apologize for the foods you have in your pantry. If you son likes that specific salsa, then so be it. And spam - hey, if that's what hubby likes, then get it for him! My husband likes chef-boy-ardee (which I think is nasty) but I keep cans in the pantry for him to eat because I know he likes it. It's what we do for those we love.
You had me at "I exist in a marriage"! Hubby is an opinionated eater, mostly based on his mother's terrible cooking. We've been together for fifty-one years. Yes, there will always be compromises.
It's probably good for my kids, too. Thanks to Adam they get a little more balance than they would if I was completely in control 😂
Here is a joke my husband subjects me to quite often: A young couple got married, and the wife, wanting to impress her new husband, went out of her way to make an elaborate dinner. She worked for hours. At the end he tasted what she made and he said, "You know honey this is good. But it's not like Mama made." Feeling rebuffed, she determined that she would study fine cuisine and provide him with the best food he ever tasted. Years went by, and she tried time after time to cook the most amazing meals for him, but every time, all he said was, "This is good honey, but it's not like Mama made." About 20 years into the marriage, and the wife was getting very frustrated. For their 20th anniversary, she thought to herself, "This year I'm going to really knock his socks off!" She worked for hours! Sourced exotic and expensive ingredients, mastered new professional techniques. She was in the middle of creating the most delicious dessert on her menu, when the phone rang. There was an emergency with one of her sons and she had to run out of the house to help him. She forgot to turn off the oven. When she returned, her roast was burnt to a crisp. The vegetables were soggy. The appetizer was stiff as a board. And the dessert was a runny mess. But she had no time. She had to serve the inedible meal as it was to her husband who'd returned from work. After he ate it, her husband pushed himself from the table, wiped his and said, "Finally honey! A meal just like Mama made!"
@@threerivershomesteadyou are a wonderful mother and wife ❤❤❤❤
That would be fun to see your family try all the potluck variety of your freeze dried mini meals!
Oh my, I’m sorry people would choose to criticize your purchased pantry choices. You go ahead and provide your ‘balance’ with love.
My mom used yo have what I called a grocery store in our basement. People would come over and comment about how much food was down there. Now that I'm an adult, I realize that she basically had a month or two of food for our family of 12. Plus, she always gave some to the church elders as well.
That’s what people call my pantry too. I am only feeding 5 adults, but I like having at least 1 year of foods in stock. It helped us a lot when my husband lost his job and it took over a year before he got another one. During that time, we pretty much only ate from the pantry. It also helps that we can grow food all year round. As for favorite freeze dried foods, I will say cabbage, shredded squash and shredded beets. The first is impossible to keep fresh here and you can’t really can them. We eat a lot of cabbages, so I am very happy to be able to freeze dry what we don’t ferment.
❤❤❤ My parents were the same , 🚫 went hungry , n where I Got it from Until I 👀 YT n found a wonderful community here 👍🏻💯 ❤❣️
@@thewitchykitchen❤❤❤
Yes, please! Do a week of freeze dried foods. I think that would be interesting to see how they do then reconstituted into meals.
nobody should have to explain what they have to eat in their house..you guys do you and do not worry about what others say.. Love your channel !!!!!
I admire your ambition, organization and you as a mom to your children!
Thank you so much!
I believe it was Simply Living Alaska, when they bought their cabin in the woods, they found that there was food in the cabin. I wanna say they found freeze dried meals from that company that did your green beans, and the meals were from the 70's? Eric and Arielle went through them and ate them, said they were actually pretty good compared to some of what is on the market today, they were better in many cases.
Great tour, Jessica! :) Was lovely to spend some time with you today! Have a wonderful week!
Yes I remember them bringing them meals when they 1st got the wee getaway cabin. Jessica, you amaze me with what you and your beautiful family can achieve. Both you and Justin Rhodes are the best example of a family working the land and achieving great things xxx sending love from Northern Ireland in the UK xx
I smiled ☺ at your explanation of the balance of your marriage and it hit home here as well. My husband eats what ever I make, even when I add kale, or freeze dried cabbage to our foods. Yet he hates the flavor of kale, and prefers cabbage fresh, or steamed. But yet this weekend on a trip away I arranged for us to have dinner at a Culver's. He got to have his fix of burgers, fries, and root beer. 😊 Happy hubby. Then he was just as happy coming home to my canned chicken vegetable soup, and a mug of chamomile tea.
Just want to say "you go girl". I am in awe of all you do and accomplish. Can't wait to see what comes. Love and blessings
My dad was a boy scout leader; and when they did their camping trips, they made what they called German pizza. It's a base of fried potatoes, (I use frozen square cut hash browns, salt and papper them as frying. Then layer in strips of fried spam, followed by a bunch of eggs, scrambled up be pouring over the potato/spam mixture. Sprinkle cheese, if no dairy allergies, or use dairy free cheese, over top and put in oven until eggs are set well and potatoes crisp. It became a family favorite growing up, with my 8 brothers and sisters. It's a delicious breakfast for dinner meal.
Every time something is called "german" in america it has nothing to do with a german dish 😂😂 at least the few things i've heard of. But it sounds delicious and i will definetely try.
Ty for standing your ground about what you buy and how you prepare your meals. It's no one's business. People that criticize must be so bored with being perfect and doing everything just right so they have time to find what they think to be wrong in others. You are truly amazing. I have learned so much from you. I love your great family. You are a great mom and wife and Adam knows he is a blessed man. Ty for sharing your family.
GREAT pantry!!! If you purchase another freezer to go in an area that is not climate controlled, get a "garage ready" freezer. It is made for warmer environment. We have one that is 21.7 cu ft in our covered patio area and also just a regular upright. HUGE difference!
We definitely need to do that. Both our fridge and the commercial freezer in the garage malfunctioned this summer in the extreme heat. It was so stressful!!
Upright freezers are the best. Costco has an amazing, inexpensive one that I have in my garage in Florida. It can also be an all refrigerator. @@threerivershomestead
Been married 36 years and yes it is a give and take. My husband enjoys many items, I make for him and also, make things then spice it up for him. So, that is what I do cause I love him.
Food is definitely a love language of mine. I just want to make him happy ❤️
@@threerivershomestead it is my love language also. It has been challenging recently with the celiac diagnosis! Big game changer for someone who would bake a bunch of cookies each Christmas to give out and have a Christmas Eve Tea every year!
Jessica, you should be very proud of what you have done. You definitely have more ambition than many women who are not pregnant, and have smaller families. Please don't apologize for any shortcomings that you think are there. We learn a great deal from you and are inspired by you. Thank you for sharing. God bless. 😊
Girl i have no idea how you have so much energy to do aaaallllll the things. You are seriously super woman!
Jessica, I watch your video each week, but rarely ever comment. Once again, all I can say is, “YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!” Thanks so much for sharing your life with us. WOW!
Hi Jessica, thank you for the in depth tour. I continually learn from you, for which I’m grateful, thank you. I’m sorry if people give you a hard time for stocking the comfort items your family enjoys. I’m with you, I like to see my sweetheart happy. We eat healthy most of the time, so a few items don’t cause me concern. 😊congratulations on your pregnancy. God bless you and your beautiful family 🙏🏻
I would really enjoy a video on your freeze dried meals. Thank you for sharing your home with us
Video was not too long! You had sooooo much to show us, and it’s impressive. Thanks Jessica.
Jessica, I absolutely love all your videos. There is no need to justify anything to anyone. You and Adam do everything you can to take care of your family. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge with all of us . God bless your beautiful family, and congratulations on the soon to be new addition .🙏🏻🧡
The fact that you grow and preserve as much of your own food as you do and still have to justify store-bought purchases is just crazy to me. It's nearly impossible to produce all of a family's needs on your own, and like you said, part of a good marriage is compromise. If people can't see that, that's on them! I, too, grow and preserve a ton of my family's food, but Aldi organic ketchup can't be beat. I will never waste my time or resources making ketchup as long as I can get it from Aldi! Not to mention the handful of other things that we just like, can't recreate ourselves, or just plain don't want to give up.
The Aldi ketchup really is delicious!
I will never, ever, ever spend my time canning ketchup again. It was a very unenjoyable experience. Right now in this season of life I work one day a week at our business that has almost 40 employees in three locations in two different cities and four days a week remotely. I also homeschool our five children as my husband is off running our business 12 - 15 hours a day during the week. I buy everything I can that meets our standards, and some even that doesn't in moderation. 10 years ago I made almost everything from scratch. We all do the best we can in the season we are in at the time 😊
We grow a ton too but I don't waste time on many condiments and gains. I won't grow wheat as long as the grain mill is down the road. 😅
@@threerivershomestead We love ketchup, and I still can one batch per year in half pint jars. The reason is that I have a really great sweet/sour recipe that uses ketchup, and I like to dump a jar of the home canned in. I also sweeten that sauce with stevia instead of sugar, and it keeps in the fridge for a good amount of time too. So, we eat ketchup from the bottle, and I cook the sauce with my canned stuff! For us it's win win.
I love your pantry tours, Jessica, and your videos in general always give me some ideas. PLEASE never apologise for the food you keep in your pantry. You do you and everyone in your family, too.👍By the way, your hair is beautifull.❤
Thank you so much!!
Great pantry tour Jessica. Like Adam, my husband has sourced ‘throw away’ shelving from his work. They were in perfect condition and quality warehouse shelving that there was no room for. It’s crazy what gets thrown away and we are grateful to put them to work. What we can’t use we pass on to someone else who can. Your pantry shelves look beautiful!
My son helps a local dairy farm for free and they give us calves that they don’t want to bottle feed. Not beef joes but we do grass fed and finished and the beef is still amazing. Because we don’t pay for them or feed grain so other than butcher cost we have free beef.
What a blessing!
So they remove the calves from their mothers? Sad I thought organic farms took the milk the calves didn't need!
@daveshoemaker7137 at Oregon State's dairy they take both girl and boy calves away immediately or aoon after, as the calves are in danger from being trompled on if they are allowed to roam about. Only the girl calves get a posh warm fluffy straw pen and lots of pumped mommy milk in a bottle, as mom gets dragged off for milking now that she has birthed and can fulfill supply demands.
Would love to see freeze dried foods used as meals. Our experience has mostly been with jerky and fruits for freeze dried snacks in trail mix so expanding the use for the freeze dryer would make it a far more sensible purchase. Your food storage is so organized and clean it is truly an inspiration. You show how keeping it organized is crucial to effectively using the foods you put so much effort into preserving. Thank you for this video! Really appreciate that you took the time to remind us how you will use the items you have stored. Organization of the freezer is my challenge so really excited to see how you do it. Wishing you a healthy and happy week.
Thank you so much for the encouragement ☺️
I am always amazed at all you accomplish. You are so much an inspiration! I love Sunday mornings with you!
Our bodies absolutely can handle store bought condiments and favorite processed foods! Thank you for sharing your "real" and wonderful life with us ❤️
You are an amazing homemaker, mom, wife and person. And very humble and kind. Thank you for sharing the fruits of your hard labor!
Spam is awesome! We didn't eat it growing up but were introduced when we lived in Korea. Don't eat it all the time but enjoy it when we do. We even got the kids into it when we were there, and they still do.
Spam smeared with mustard and honey, heated in a hot oven to slightly caramelize the topping….war time food, my mom used to make for my Dad sometimes.
@@anitacolotto9282yum
Great tour. I’m sorry to hear about the judgy people with regard to your store bought foods. You do what is best for your family, ignore the haters.
That canned beef is brilliant! I just bought Spam for the 1st. time in 25 years. I'm really looking forward to a fried Spam sandwich. Yum! Mom buys Taco Bell hot sauce on Amazon. She's never had Taco Bell in her life. Cracks me up. God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in 🙏🏻 Scottsdale AZ & E. Minister
Ohhh my lord...bless this woman with strength and health. I'm just blown away by all your hard work. How did you manage all of this and while pregnant and home schooling plus everything else? 😮😮
This is incredible..like seriously. God bless you abundantly sweetheart. Thanks for the tour ..😂😂😂 I still " can't wrap my mind around all this work you've done here.
My goodness Jessica, I just want to spend a year at your house. I feel SO lazy after watching your videos! LoL 😮 I'm incredibly inspired by all you accomplish in your daily life, as a happily married woman and mother, and as an obviously fulfilled woman of God. Thank you for sharing your lives with us and your example! ❤
Jessica, you are SO organized!! What an impressive pantry! Loved the tour. I remember when you were getting the basement ready and painting and setting up shelves. Great outcome.
WOW I am sad someone would criticize you for how you feed your family. We all have the fun foods we want to eat that aren't as good for us and thats fine!!!! I hope you know you are an amazing mom and wife and I 100% love every video you make. I live for Sunday afternoons when I take the time to watch your life. THANKS for sharing
You have worked really hard on getting your pantry organized and more functional and it shows! Great job! This gets me really excited for this coming Pantry Challenge ❤
Thank you so much!!
We home can a lot of our beef in chunks like you have in your commercially canned stuff. We also do a lot of hamburger that way. It is incredibly versatile. We don't have freezers for meat, so this is how we preserve our home grown beef. It does take a little bit of an adjustment in the way you think about meals, but once you get the hang of it, it's so nice not to worry about thawing out meat for meals, or if the power is going to go out (or freezer break down) and have the meat spoil.
YES! BALANCE! I like spam and store bought BBQ sauce etc too. We all have to make compromises in life.
Your pantry looks fabulous! Great work!
We had a pack of wild dogs take out our whole flock in July of 23. We had freeze dried eggs and waterglass eggs that lasted us until December of that year. We now have another flock and an electric fence.
That had to be devastating. I am so sorry.
How terrible! You wont regret that fence. I lost one chicken to a fox in 2020, got an electric fence - haven't lost a bird to a predator since.
@@threerivershomestead it was but we were so thankful for the freeze dried and waterglassed eggs we had on hand. And so very thankful for neighbors who kept us in eggs until our babies grew up and began laying.
@@beckymay439 the fence has paid dividends already!
That is so impressive. Guaranteed food healthy food and treats too. I could t possibly ask for more than that. Save money feed the family save yourself from multiple trips to the store. Jessica you’re a great example of stewardship for so many people on so many levels. Thankyou. Hope you’re staying rested and healthy !! Hannah is growing up so fast. My goodness. Adoreable as all the kiddos are . Have a blesssed week.
Jessica you are a such beautiful soul, thank you for letting us into your home and showing us how to preserve and cook wholesome food for our families. Adam is a lucky man!
Thank you so much!
I am so happy for you to be able to use the basement space to store your food now! I remember you hoping that to be possible for years before. It looks great! Balance in our diets and lives is always important. Gotta keep up the moral with the troops! If ketchup, tabasco, and taco sauce is all it takes to make them happy, by all means do it!
Jessica thank you for all your wonderful videos. You have a beautiful family and homestead. Don't let the negative people get to you. You are so positive and inspiring. May God continue to bless you and your family 🕊💖
Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing. Very inspirational. You are wonderful at reflecting the seasons well, both literal and family life and even reflecting unexpected events that make the reality of a well stocked pantry is all about. Because even if we buy our foods from other sources we can be affected by a lack of supply because life happens and we all are affected down the chain.
Thanks again Jessica, beautiful pantry!
And I would love to see how you manage meal creations from freeze dried foods and how your family liked them. 😁
CONGRATULATIONS! 😊 You're doing amazing!
Thank you!! 😊
Thank you for taking time to make these videos. My husband and I enjoy watching and discussing. Beautiful family
I really enjoyed this video! That's a lot of work and a lot of good food! Don't worry about what you call things or what bought foods you keep. There should be NO judgement! It's YOUR pantry for YOUR family!
Thanks so much! 😊
Jessica, I loved the way you began your proactive "defense" of buying and keeping on hand some store-bought products that your husband or children like. You projected a light-hearted attitude about the subject, explained exactly why you do it, and I'm pretty sure I even saw you wink. I was thinking to myself... this is perfect, and surely even the most bossy busybody wouldn't dare to try to tear you down when you presented your explanation in such a cute and charming way. The RUclipsr on another channel I watch says, "My kitchen, my rules; your kitchen, your rules," which comes across to me as
non-confrontational but very plain as to her attitude about some harsh, unnecessary criticisms. Love your videos and you and your family. May God continue to bless all of you as you bless us with your knowledge and wisdom. ❤
Today I learned azure now sales organic coconut cream for 18 dollars for 12 cans. When I saw this it made me think of your family. Thanks for another great video. Much love and blessings.
I was so excited to see that we got an ¨extra long¨ video from you this week! ☺ You are such an inspiration - you help me try to do more for my family when health issues try to hold me back. And you've set a wonderful example of how I should approach my hubbys junk food habit. Youŕe such a blessing.
Great pantry! You and your family work so hard to eat well and to show others how to grow your own food ! You look wonderful and I hope that you continue on teaching us that canning is a wonderful blessing to our families!
I love how you explain your reasonings for things in such an unapologetic way. You're correct: life is about balance. What a wonderful larder you've built. I look forward to the freezer tours and would love to see a video where you cook with some of those freeze-dried items. I've had my Harvest Right for a year now and continue to learn so much all the time. It would be interesting to see you reconstitute some of those meals and see how they do. I've not yet made the leap to processing meals. So far I've been doing ingredients, which are so convenient to use. A video from you (pending happy results, of course) might be the final push for me to try some meals, too. Thanks for another great video, Jessica. You've kept me company in the kitchen while scrubbing beets. Take care.
You are my hero! The thought and work that goes into your care for your family is amazing! Please take care of yourself and baby to come. Pray blessings for you.
First let me say how much I enjoy your channel and hos much I have learned from you. Thank you for inviting us into your home and life. it makes me sad that you feel that you have to explain and justify items in your pantry. You have every right to have any store bought items you want. No one should be judging you! Mercy you work so hard to provide great food cor your family, anyone who can't see that should watch something else. They clearly don't value you or your channel. You are simply amazing!
I’m on team David when it comes to the Ortega taco sauce! I’ve tried every homemade recipe out there (thankfully my hubby will eat anything) but I LOVE the Ortega taco sauce. I will never be without it on my pantry shelf! We have taco Tuesday every week so we go thru a lot of it! 😊
Jessica you did a great job talking about the foods that are not maybe the best for us but I have to say your response is beautiful. We need balance in our life and we are all not little robots running around doing the exact same thing that our parents do and figuring out what needs to give and take to make everyone happy is a wonderful thing. Good job and I'm sorry people criticize you for not being perfect in every way. But I'm glad to know that you know your limits you know your family's limits and the Lord knows you! 🙏♥️. God bless your family God bless your efforts and God bless the amount of food you were able to put away this year. 🙏
You amaze me. Your knowledge and ability to provide for your family - every woman should be like.
LOL I can't imagine anyone who has watched any of your videos would comment on your store bought choices. I have known people who claim to be so involved with a certain lifestyle, and they ALWAYS have a vice. Some kind of food/condiment they have to buy at a store. I recommend you and your channel to others looking for the best way to grow and preserve food, especially for such a large family like yours. Your freeze drier sure has been a wonderful gift to you and your family. Thanks for sharing 🥰🍃🍂🍁💗✝
What a beautiful Food Storage Redo these last 2 years. Just looks wonderful Jessica. Such a good video with so many ideas tips and storage tricks. Thanks😊
Your pantry is incredible. I'm very envious of your organization abilities. Thanks for sharing with us. I hope you're feeling well. Thanks for taking the time to film such an in depth video this week.
Thank you so much!
You mentioned gluten intolerance. About the time that became such a common problem, Monsanto convinced farmers to spray Roundup/Glyphosate on grains and beans to speed up the harvest.
They spray it on the plants about a week before the harvest. It kills the plant and the seeds begin to dry in the field. Glyphosfate may be the real problem for many. An illegal thing to do in many countries.
I'm new to your channel and am impressed. As for length so far, your content makes it worth the time. By contents, I don't mean look at all my jars. It's how to do it and why it works. It is also apparent that you have math skills, which put you in at least the top ten percent of people educated in our school systems. 😊
Thank you.
It's so funny how animals all have their own personalities just like people. Your chickens looked like they enjoyed all the tomato scraps. My 3 chickens would fight even over a pile like that 😂 they LOVE tomatoes
Good morning! How are you feeling? Please take care of yourself. I know you have a lot of help with that large family but you take on a lot and your energy maybe winding down. I love all your videos. You are so beautiful ,and love seeing the family.
Thank you, I will
Thank you for the tour. What a beautiful, organized pantry!
Thanks for watching!
Love your explanation of why store bought things - we also have a few favorite things we buy
So glad your family has such a great root cellar space! Thank you so much for sharing God’s blessings with us in this video.❤️🇨🇦
Hi Jessica. You did amazing, what a wonderful pantry. You look radiant. God bless you all🙏🙏🙏
I enjoy watching your videos on Sunday morning. My family has finally figured out I look forward to this each week.
Thank you so much for watching ☺️
Jessica, just call your ingredients anything you wish, nay sayers have no business making negative comments. Whatever ingredients you purchase is a decision you make with the best interests of your family at the heart. Also life is full of little compromises.
You are such a beautiful faithful loving godly mother !!!
Love and blessings +++!!!
I love the hint of marriage advice Jessica! The same thing works for us! My husband also likes spam, he tried spam musubi in Hawaii one time and now he loves it. So we buy it! I wouldn’t eat it but he loves it so I’m fine with having it in our home!
Wow! It’s incredible how much you have been able to put up! Thanks for sharing
I've been watching several years now but never commented. I've learned so much watching you and how you manage your home and preserve food. I was excited this year to finally have access to canning equipment as we moved back to the US (Ohio even) and got two bushels of tomatoes canned. And I got to pick some apples for free that were being neglected. Many are wormy, but I remember your phrase every bit counts. And so our family of 7 gets to enjoy applesauce (made fresh in small batches as I get time to cut up apples). You are living my dream with the homesteading and food preservation. Maybe someday...for now I get to enjoy seeing your life as I wash dishes
So cool! I love the idea of balance. Can’t wait see the freezers!
Yes, Jessica I would like to see what a reconstituted meal after it was freeze dried was like and see if the kids actually eat it do a taste test
The array of colors in your canned goods are beautiful! It is the art of food preservation! ☺️
So nice to see all those beautiful jars of goodness. And that beautiful pregnant belly❤ love to see life forming and growing.
Thank you so much!
Very well organized pantry. I think that would be interesting on the freeze dried food to see what they actually taste like. Those beans would be very interesting.
The apple chutney makes an excellent addition to grilled cheese sandwiches. Also, it goes on all our brats/sausage sandwiches along with sauerkraut which sounds weird but is a perfect combo! We also put it on potato pancakes instead of applesauce.
I love your talk about marriage and balance❤ warm greetings Gunilla from Denmark
I love hearing you ramble! We processed our second round of meat chickens for the year yesterday, and today I am canning several batches of broth. I get so inspired when I see all your food preservation, and I have to remind myself that there are only two people in our household! 😂
Our family would love to watch a video of your kids honest review of freeze dried meals. We've been on the fence about a freeze dryer but this would be a huge pro as we love to go camping.
Beautiful pantry, beautiful woman and momma!
Thank you for the inspiration.
