Hi friends, I went for a little stroll through the garden before I got into the canning, but if you'd like to jump right to the canning click 6:31 Enjoy! ♥
I appreciate how kind and attentive you are to your family during your videos. Above all things, we are mothers first. Thank you for setting such a great example of motherhood.
They say great chefs make a mess. Same goes for great canners. Never worry about a mess, a mess equals progress. We're here to learn and enjoy your company. Can't wait for your next video. ❤
My friend and I in years past would can together, pooling produce and sharing the results. We would can at one house, taking turns heating up our homes and families! 😂 Sometimes we would be busy until the wee hours of the night when it was cooler, children were in bed and we could blitz our efforts. So satisfying to do. I have very fond memories of that time. Enjoyable to watch you at your efforts with so much accomplished.
Chelsea, it was wonderful to hear the voices of some of your children in today's vid. I can appreciate that you do not have them on-camera very often but it's hard to believe that your usually 'quiet' home is housing half a dozen kids. Plus - when our family (of 7 kids) was in canning/freezing mode it was All Hands On Deck and it appears that you do all of the preserving effort on your own.
I do it sometimes on my own, but usually I have lots of chopping help. My kids are awesome during preserving season! I also try to fill when they aren't home or otherwise occupied - I feel really strongly about not having them on camera.
Love your videos! I noticed for the coyboy candy you said 1/2 cup sugar per cup of vinegar, but actually used the opposite , 1/2c vinegar per 1 cup sugar... Not sure, but you might need to put it in the show notes in case anyone tries to follow what you said instead of what you did 😊 thanks!!
Love your videos ❤️. I just made salsa yesterday. My son volunteered to cut all the onions. He likes to wear his swimming goggles when he cuts onions. Funny but smart. He is such a joy. Have wonderful day! Another fantastic video ~ Thank you❤️☮️
I have coursework due at midnight so cant watch now but I am feeling so much more motivated to push on after getting this notification 🙌 I will return soon!
I am amazed by all you preserve. I canned dill pickles and bread and butter pickles yesterday and I was exhaused. I canned coleslaw last weekend and strawberry rhurbarb jam before that. Tomorrow it is zucchini relish. I have to pace myself these days because I have a very bad back and I am very close to being 78 years old. I love your videos and look forward to each one. Thankyou.
My grandfather grew yellow cucumbers like the ones you grew. They were called lemon cucumbers. When they are picked young they have a slight lemon flavor. 😋
Oh my gosh that is super satisfying for sure. Wonderful. I love making cowboy candy too. Everything looks so beautiful. Hope you enjoyed your swim, well deserved. hugs
Your kitchen is a working kitchen, not just for show, don’t worry at least we know you’re real. Lol. My kitchen looks like that too, when I’m going a big day. 😊❤
Don’t apologise for your messy kitchen, I get like this when I am preserving my harvest nice to see I am not the only one. Our kitchens are working kitchens. Xx
That is called a Lemon Cucumber where we come from. I usually peal & slice them onto a plate, then squeeze a little fresh lemon over them, then a bit of salt & pepper. SO DELICIOUS!! A favorite in our home. Easy to grow & very prolific. Best younger, less seeds.
I have made salsa without cumin. As long as you’ve got cilantro it’s still very yummy. I did a roasted salsa this year which turned out very good. It’s roots and refuge recipe. You can find her on RUclips
So glad i could hear the children in the background helping you, that is a lot of canning to do by yourself, so glad they are willing to help. I made 26 qts of salsa for a friend.
I just am in awe of how you have such an easy going confidence in your canning. I am always second guessing myself and can absolutely never multitask. I actually tried doing two things at once a couple of days ago, and added two tablespoons of salt into my sourdough pre-ferment instead of two teaspoons. I thought I was really zipping along well, but nope. You are such an inspiration! Thanks for sharing your canning days with us! FYI, just finished canning your Cole slaw, every lid sealed, and I can't wait to try it in the next day or so!
I’m making the Ball’s Fresh Veggie Salsa today & cutting back on jalapeños also. Dicing up bell peppers to freeze as I watch this video. Busy time indeed here in Ohio also.
Hi... I have two steam canners and it makes the canning so much easier... I'm not nearly as tired at the end of a canning day because the processing takes half the time... I have two pressure canners for the same reason.. also both have the weights so don't have to constantly watch the guage... it's amazing how much easier my day seems with those few changes. Thanks for another great video... I so often learn something new...at 70 that is so awesome for me ☺️
The apple cucumbers were a staple in our garden when I was young. Mum called them crystal apple cucumbers and we always peeled them. We only ever used them for salads and eating fresh. Still a favourite but becoming rarer.
Back in the days, my father's family ( lived in the mountains over 1000m above sea level) would use branches with leaves to feed their animals in order to extend the hay. They also grew fodder beets. I hope you got your cumin for the salsa:))))
Hey Chelsea...I love watching you and how much you get done...you motivate me for sure!!!! The little yellow cucumber is called Lemon Cucumber...at least that's what we call them in the states
Hi Chelsea, I’ve been a subscriber for a really long time maybe near Little Mountain Ranch RUclips beginning. I’ve been really busy for the longest time and not watched any RUclips but I think of you often, pray for you all and still hear you in my head saying, “Hi I’m Chelsea from Little Mountain Ranch”. I will catch on your channel soon.
It is so nice to see you use the steam canner. I don’t think I have seen anyone else using one on you tube. I have been using mine for a year and it has been a game changer. It is faster heating up and so much easier to handle without all the water. I love it!
We actually had the water shut down for irrigation by the environment service of BC in Westwold and Falkland a few summers years back , it was devastating to the farmers and we have huge Hay farmers in this valley .
I envy your heat! We here in south Sweden, had a warm and dry June but then it got very cold and we've had so much rain. I've hardly been to the beach this summer, disappointing! At least the garden is doing good with all the rain! Fun to see you can, love your videos!
We love cowboy candy. My recipe has cayenne powder or red pepper flakes, granulated garlic. All else is the same. Ever canned cake? Just two of us, so I do that so my husband can have a sweet treat when I haven't been able to bake
Omgosh! Yes, wear gloves!!!! I cut up a ton of jalapeños from my garden to freeze and I didn’t wear gloves. I knew better too! My hands hurt for 24 hours😭😭😭 I tried every remedy. Nothing helped! ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love your content Chelsey! So relaxing.
Thank you i enjoyed this video so much God bless you you know you just make everyone smile and you take it in a roll and something messes up your rolling with the punches thank you so much i cannot wait to put up some blackberry jam for the winter this winter and you just made me so excited about it thank you miss kelsey i will never forget this this is something that i will tell everyone about in fact i talked about it all the time here in like in pensacola florida where i live i talked about how you go through all that i love your panties and your carrots oh my God you grew some of the beautiful carrots wow thank you again and God bless from my family to yours you're in our prayers
We are in Northern Michigan, tip of the mitten area, and our drought has hugely affected our local farmers hay production as well. We saw a few farmers that cut for a second time, and literally it looked like if I cut my grass after letting it go for a month. The cutting was pathetic. It may give him one or two round bales to the entire field.😢😢😢
Hi from the East Coast of Australia. When I was young the only cucumbers we grew were what my mother called Crystal Cucumbers which are the same as you showed at the beginning of your vlog. We always peeled them as the skin was a little tough and could be slightly prickly. They are hard to come by now as our food likes have changed to the green long ones, usually called Lebanese cucumbers or just green cucumbers. My uncle and many country folk in the family grow a large oval white; as they ripen, they turn yellow and are delicious too. They can be rather fat and large and ideally better when they are lighter in colour. I will try to get some seeds for the crystal cucumber and grow some this year. We are looking forward to Spring which starts slowly for us in September. Love to watch you and your beautiful garden. BTW there is not one member of my family that likes coriander or as you call it cilantro, you said it has a lemony fragrance, to our noses it smells like the green stink bugs we get on our lemon tree. They say it is in your DNA as to whether you like certain flavours over others.
You will never regret getting that processor..I had mine 20 years and the motor was still running smooth and quiet….although the plastic parts do decay with washing in dishwasher
I love my steam canner. Less time and less water too. I cannot imagine doing that much canning in one day! You are amazing❤️ This year I made red hot cinnamon pickles with overgrown seeded cucumbers. They are like candy.
I got the same food processor and I love the dicer that came with. It makes life so much easier. When you said you make your cowboy candy with banana peppers and jalapeños I wanted to yell „me too“. Lol
It gets hot in a kitchen canning. You can a lot and have you thought about an outdoor canning room (just for the summer) to keep the heat in the house down. During the winter the heat is a good addition. It is just a dream for me.
You are a little energizer bunny :) I don't know how you do it all. You are amazing. Thanks for the video. I'm canning right now, but much, much less quantities..

I appreciate how kind and attentive you are to your family during your videos. Above all things, we are mothers first. Thank you for setting such a great example of motherhood.
She and Dan are both like that. They have taught their children kindness and respect through example❣️
Don't forget your yarn is on the ladder! 😊
Thank you! 😊
Your videos are a favorite of mine. You have such a gentle manner.
They say great chefs make a mess. Same goes for great canners. Never worry about a mess, a mess equals progress. We're here to learn and enjoy your company. Can't wait for your next video. ❤
I must be a Michelin star chef and canner!!!

Can't tell you how you inspire all of us!! Love watching your videos and all the things :)
Wow, thank you!
Celery-yak makes me smile every time. We (UK) call it Sell-air-ree-ach (not saying we are right at all…but the difference makes me giggle) x
I caught that too, I’m British and my dad grew it.
You are amazing Chelsea. I get excited at how excited you get over all your preservation and garden. You're the best mom. Great video.

@@LittleMountainRanch Wonderful 'parenting', Mom!!!

I was just looking for this comment too - I was wondering if the vinegar:sugar ratio was correct as it is backwards from what she did
Love your videos ❤️. I just made salsa yesterday. My son volunteered to cut all the onions. He likes to wear his swimming goggles when he cuts onions. Funny but smart. He is such a joy. Have wonderful day! Another fantastic video ~ Thank you❤️☮️
I have coursework due at midnight so cant watch now but I am feeling so much more motivated to push on after getting this notification 🙌 I will return soon!
What a nice reward for completing your case work!
You got this!
Love the crunch when you chop the peppers , so fresh and crisp .

That's what my seed pack this year called them too....
Hey Chelsea ☺️ Watermelon Rind Pickles are a new favourite on our homestead!!
Oh my gosh that is super satisfying for sure. Wonderful. I love making cowboy candy too. Everything looks so beautiful. Hope you enjoyed your swim, well deserved. hugs

Wow what a productive 2 days! Thank goodness for the lake where you can relax and unwind a little!❤

Wow! Lady Chelsea you are amazing. The cans on your counters looked beautiful! I hope you had a nice time at the lake with your family.
I have made salsa without cumin. As long as you’ve got cilantro it’s still very yummy. I did a roasted salsa this year which turned out very good. It’s roots and refuge recipe. You can find her on RUclips
Thanks so much Chelsea. I love spending time with you. 🌷🇨🇦
You are so hard working❤❤
I did the same. And my hands burnt so bad for a few days. Nothing would help the burn. Never again!!!! Gloves for all hot peppers.
I have so much Pioneer Woman in my kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom;😂
I don’t get tired of her designs❤
Amen, Cilantro lovers everywhere! Yum! I'm with you ;)
That was AWESOME! I bet you take your coffee down to the pantry for breakfast just to admire all that work and joy!
So glad i could hear the children in the background helping you, that is a lot of canning to do by yourself, so glad they are willing to help. I made 26 qts of salsa for a friend.
I made some cowboy candy the other day and to some of it added a bunch of cherries I needed to use up - so delicious and so beautiful!

I never used to be good at multi tasking, but years of doing the same things every year has helped a ton.
I’m making the Ball’s Fresh Veggie Salsa today & cutting back on jalapeños also. Dicing up bell peppers to freeze as I watch this video. Busy time indeed here in Ohio also.
My favorite cowboy candy is shishito peppers done in the leftover brine after doing a batch using jalapeños.
I am exhausted just watching. I am dehydrating cabbage ar moment but have a large bowl full of peppers to go in next. Thank you for sharing 🙏🙏🙏
All I can say is WOW!

Hi Chelsey, in the US we call them Lemon Cucumbers. 🍋🥒
Loved every minute of this video. What a fantastic mom and wife you are.
Wow, that was a lot of jars!!!! Good for you!!! This was very inspiring!!! Thanks!! 😊
That’s pico de gallo. Love it! 💕
Amazing accomplishment, getting so much prepped & canned in just 2 days! Thanks for sharing! Blessings to everyone 🤗💗🇨🇦
What a great feeling to have all that beautiful produce persevered for the winter. Thank you for sharing.
You are such an inspiration to many, especially to us!
Thank you so much!😊
💚 Wow, canning extravaganza! What an amazing amount of preserved food. Hope the swim cooled you off!💚
The apple cucumbers were a staple in our garden when I was young. Mum called them crystal apple cucumbers and we always peeled them. We only ever used them for salads and eating fresh. Still a favourite but becoming rarer.
Thanks for taking us with you as you can
Awesome job
Wow! Lots of work but so rewarding! Blessings Chelsea!🤗💕🤗
I love your videos. I really enjoyed walking with you through your massive garden. ❤
I discovered a vegetable chopper by Starfit that makes chopping so easy and uniform for tomatoes, peppered and onions.
Thinking about your family when I watch news of the wildfires in BC and the rest of Canada. Hope it stays away!
Fabulous you read my mind, doing peaches and salads and tomato sauce this weekend.
I do hope everyone is safe, take care❤
Back in the days, my father's family ( lived in the mountains over 1000m above sea level) would use branches with leaves to feed their animals in order to extend the hay. They also grew fodder beets. I hope you got your cumin for the salsa:))))
amazing amount of canning for two days! wow! I am impressed! Thank you for sharing your recipes and tecniques!
Hey Chelsea...I love watching you and how much you get done...you motivate me for sure!!!! The little yellow cucumber is called Lemon Cucumber...at least that's what we call them in the states
Yay! it's such a relief to get a lot of preserving done.🌻

Very very interesting video! Thank you for taking your time to produce this video for us.
We call the Yellow cucumbers, lemon cucumbers😊
Wow! That’s a lot of canning! AWSOME
Superb brand lids are fabulous and made in the USA.
We actually had the water shut down for irrigation by the environment service of BC in Westwold and Falkland a few summers years back , it was devastating to the farmers and we have huge Hay farmers in this valley .
Thank you for sharing the atmosphere looks very pleasant

Love this video. Biggest food processor ever.
Holy cow, you are the canning queen!
Wowzers !
I live in Southwest Colorado. My husband cut all of our hay and every single grass waterway he could, For winter.
Still waiting for tomatoes and peppers here, but I am making zucchini relish and canning salmon while I watch your latest video!
We are in Northern Michigan, tip of the mitten area, and our drought has hugely affected our local farmers hay production as well. We saw a few farmers that cut for a second time, and literally it looked like if I cut my grass after letting it go for a month. The cutting was pathetic. It may give him one or two round bales to the entire field.😢😢😢
Go to the lake and relax after all that canning. Canning is so rewarding after all is done.
In Texas, we eat our Cowboy Candy with the cream cheese on Tortilla chips. The Scoops chips work the best.
This time of year is absolute madness .... I agree!

We were told recently that bee balm attracts bees but does not feed them. So it kind of tricks them .
Wish you had help in the garden. I can't imagine you doing it all alone. God bless.😘
I appreciate that you wear goggles for onion chopping! I am not a fan of onions, but my husband is!
Last year I canned the leftover cowboy candy brine and used it as a meat marinade throughout the year.
I’ve seen more sow bugs or rolly pollies than I’ve ever seen before! It’s all the rain, they’ve gone mad.
You could make red hot cinnamon pickles with your cucumbers if you have a bumper crop. They take around 4 days to make but are worth the effort
yep
Absolutley fascinating and heartwarming! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I got the same food processor and I love the dicer that came with. It makes life so much easier.
When you said you make your cowboy candy with banana peppers and jalapeños I wanted to yell „me too“. Lol
