    This is just an FYI for those trying to grow sweet corn… One of the biggest problems with growing sweet corn is not growing it in a large enough patch, and/or wide enough patch. No growing in a few rows, because the wind and breezes are what helps pollinate it. If it’s in just a few rows, the wind just blows the the pollen out into the nether, leaving the eventual corn small and sparsely filled…sometimes bare, lol.
    Another common problem is not feeding it enough. Corn is a heavy feeder..
    I was raised on a farm surrounded by corn, and my brother and I even sold it uptown from the back of my Dads truck. And yet…
    When it came to my own first couple attempts at raising sweet corn, I failed miserably and had dwarfed skimpy corn. My Dad pointed out that I was trying to raise corn on a postage stamp sized garden… ouch! 🤭

    Hi Becky, I wanted to share something that might be helpful based on my experience managing industrial kitchens. This is a common oversight for home cooks, so it’s totally understandable (no judgment at all!). When preserving larger quantities, though, it’s important to be extra careful with hygiene.
    For example, when handling unwashed vegetables like those beautiful home-grown onions, it’s best to use a separate knife, cutting board, and bench space, or to clean cutting board, knife and surrounding area thoroughly before using it for anything else. I noticed you used the same knife to score peaches right after handling the onions. While putting the peaches in hot water helps with peeling, it’s not long enough to eliminate potential contaminants introduced by using the same, unsanitised bench space and knife. Soil and compost can carry spores and bacteria, which is a food safety concern.
    I just wanted to point this out to help ensure everything stays safe and delicious!

Maybe 🤔 I’ve been anticipating the preservation videos for so long. Idk. I just slowed down preserving my garden (187 jars added to my shelves Woohooo) not done yet though. Definitely over/past the ‘overwhelming’ part of the season enough that I can enjoy videos again. Becky I hope you know how much of an inspiration you are to this community around the globe. Especially those of us new to homesteading millennials who are looking for a mentor. We love you and appreciate each and every one of your posts. ❤ much love from the south east!

    One more time Becky, and I pray you read this because it’s like the 4th time I’ve typed this out. I buy organic local honey in 1 gallon plastic jugs. I used to buy the gallon size from Azure, but I now have a local hookup. Anyway, when your gallon crystallizes, simply set it in your instant pot with enough water to cover maybe an inch from the bottom, and set it on WARM. Put the plastic jug on some kind of trivia/rack or 3-4 canning rings so it’s not touching the instant pot directly. Before you know it, all will be honey again. PEASE READ THIS! Every time you mention your crystalized honey, I’m over here screaming at my iPad. 🤪

      I actually wouldn't heat anything in plastic in my instant pot. The chemicals leach out of the plastic and into whatever food you have in the container. I'd melt in it warm water and when back to the right consistency, pour it into glass jars so it's easier to deal with.

    Becky, something you can do istead of a towel in the bottom of the canner is you can take some of the jar rings and zip tie them together and sit them on the bottom of the canner as well.

    I so love your videos Becky! You inspire me! Because of you I can fruits and vegetables more often, I buy local beef and pork, and make more homemade goods! Because of you I found Azure and I have been purchasing from them for almost 2 years! The beginning of year we sold our home and a new home with land so I’m pretty excited for 2025 gardening season! Thank you for posting awesome educational videos!

    It's wonderful to see how you use your garden produce. My garden isn't as big as yours but I'm very proud of the fact that I canned Cream of Celery Soup Base that used all ingredients (except chicken stock, which was home canned) from my garden. Garlic, celery, potatoes and onions.

    I recently was perusing my Ball preservation book and made the Cherry Chocolate Jam? OH MY GOODNESS. You might consider it. You don't need much. It's rich and delicious and has been used in our house on toast/muffins, in yogurt, over ice cream stirred into coffee (I mascerated the cherries to the point of no chunks). AND I did it with pitted dark cherries not fresh and the very best cocoa I could find. Honestly, try it as a treat and also gifts!! Thank you for all your inspiration.

      @@Meeminator603 I've made the sure jell version of chocolate cherry jam many years ago, and it was delicious 😋! Their recipe called for squares of semi sweet chocolate if my memory is correct. It was a long time ago. I don't eat jams or jelly because of the high amounts of sugar. I'm a diabetic, and yes I know about low sugar recipes from Pamonas and sure jell. I was not much of a jam/jelly consumer.

    Hi Becky, just wanted to warn you from this side of the world, where we are told that honey shouldn’t be cooked or heated as it destroys some of the nutrients and enzymes in honey, and can even be harmful. So maybe you should mix in the honey after the granola is baked and cooled a bit. Adding honey to hot tea is also not advised here, and we usually wait till the tea is only warm. I may be wrong about this, so please do your own research as well.

    I just freeze dried a tray of cilantro because of your suggestion. It was my first time freeze drying anything and I'm hooked. I have a medium sized Harvest Right Pro.
    I did 2 full trays of cooked pork shoulder carnitas, 1 tray of rotisserie chicken chunks, 1 tray of green onions along with the 1 tray of cilantro. 😊
    I've been watching you for years and you're the major reason that I bought a Greenstalk and a freeze dryer. I have another rotisserie chicken to break down to make broth with the skin and bones and freeze dry the meat. I've got a long list of things to freeze dry including some caramel M&M's.

    When I have a pickle recipe that has a multiple ingredient brine and the produce is trickling in too slow for a full batch, I mix up a full batch of brine and keep it in the fridge. It makes it easier to do small batches of pickles with less mess.

    @acrehomestead. Thank you for boosting my confidence and making canning look easy. I never canned anything.......my mom grew up on a farm, I did not, but went every summer and helped with harvest. My mom canned and so did my grandmother's. I turned 50 this summer and bought myself a pressure canned for our tomatoes. We always froze our sauce and our freezer just wasn't holding everything. I was quite intimidated at first, but after watching your videos multiple times I tried it. I succeeded and now i can't wait to try more. ❤
