It's a GREAT feeling!!! I told my husband today when he came home that after this last canning batch I was in the middle of doing, it would be it until December(ish) when I would do more beans (or meats). I canned 7 quarts of corned beef and it feels so good to put my canner away. This garden season has me utterly exhausted. Im not complaining though, I have such a stocked pantry and I love it! Although we arent dealing with job loss, furloughs, or seasonal unemployment (well, it isnt ever out of the question since we own our own company) but I do keep a very well stocked pantry through the winter for personal reasons. I avoid shopping and as many public situations as possible during the virus and flu seasons. My MS treatments do wonders with keeping my MS from attacking but unfortunately it depletes my immune system so if there's a virus to catch, I'll catch it lol. We just welcomed a foster placement of 2 brothers 2 weeks ago and I already caught a cold from them.....so although that was avoidable, I at least didnt have to be sick AND grocery shop :) It's been my way of life for 3 years and Im never going back to a standard pantry and weekly grocery living ever again! You have a great pantry and a lot of hard work goes into it. Great job!!!
I am so with you! I get a monthly infusion that totally suppresses my immune system. I LOVE and am GRATEFUL for my pantry. When the big C hit I didn’t go to the store for almost 4 months and ate very well!
@Cheryl Adams there's some sort of rsv going around now too so I've been doing grocery pickups and Christmas shopping via Amazon lol.
@@angelas_pantry_obsession yes, there is. I just stay home out of the crowds which is s good idea for multiple reasons!!
Of all the pantries on youtube, your farm pantry is my favorite !!! Love the wood shelves and the big jars. A farm fantasy! Well done!
Thank you so much for the compliment.
Great tour...and may I put in my humble opinion. Never apologize for charging for your service. Without you, they wouldn't have things on their shelves and in these days, nothing is free with our prices of utilities skyrocketing. I'd gladly pay you to freeze dry for me since I can't afford one myself.
I now have pantry envy. Now I know that's a thing. You've done a great job. I'm truly inspired. ❤
😂
It is a great feeling to have at least a years worth of food put up. It gives you peace of mind for the winter months or if a health crisis in the family and you can just shop the deals to keep things restocked.
Looking great Renae!
I’m glad your pantry is done, now you can take a breather and enjoy the grandchildren. I meant to tell you my sister in law is from Austria and my grandmother was German, they can cook up a storm. Have a blessed day!
How on earth have I missed this channel?!!! I absolutely love your videos! I was so happy to subscribe!
Thank you and welcome.
Awesome. Everyone needs a pantry like that!! Lots of work, but doing it 1 day at a time!! Blessings💞
We had pressure canned chili that was definitely still good at 5 years (it was on a shelf that got hid by baby stuff). That mixed fruit - you can purée it into a sauce and use in baking to replace most of the oil.
I love your pantry. We could be great neighbors. Love your channel.
I enjoyed this video. I would love to hear more about your wonderful grandmother & her 18 children & how hard it was to provide for her children. God Bless her & all the dear grandmothers! I have raised my 3 grandsons from babies & fought the court system for 5 years to get them. It was financially devastating but I had to get them in a safe home with plenty of love & food. They are beautiful boys now, 17, 15, & 14, & such a blessing. I watch you because it is difficult to feed 3 hungry, growing teens! Love you! 💕🌷
Oh I can relate to raising hungry growing children. You need lots of budget friendly recipes and I have lots them and lots of ways to stretch foods. I raised my children on a shoe string budget and my friend they never went hungry. I will do some videos for you for easy low budget meals. Will that help you?
@@LittleVillageHomestead yes! You are precious & so kind!
@@LittleVillageHomestead so glad I found this channel today. Those recipes would be great.
Wow!! Am I jealous! I wish I had a small room I could turn into a pantry. Loved the video!! 👩🍳
Good morning, the contents of things like root cellars need to be private. Smart decission for not showing it. Thank you for sharing. I still have a long ways to go. Working 2 full time jobs dont leave much time for doing much.
I just discovered your channel, and subscribed, I love seeing like minded people, working hard, building the food stockpile for Winter 😊❤ you have a beautiful pantry ❤
Spectacular job on your pantry! I’m 68, been gardening all my life, cooking from scratch and have taught my kids these skills. I’ve been pressure canning the past two years and I’m obsessed with it. Lol my pantry has overflowed into the “tool room” and some even in my garage. I love your shelves and since I’m a widow I repurposed book cases, they hold two quarts deep and ten jars across, which works perfectly fine for me.
I just recently found your channel and must say it feels like “home” can’t wait to see what y’all have to share next! 💕 Nana
This video came up in my suggested videos and I'm so glad it did! Now I'm a subsciber. I knew you were in the Midwest because you shop at Meijer. Then you were talking about Amish and something else and I said she's in Michigan! I took care of both my parents so thank you for being there for your mom. Love your delivery, you're like my favorite neighbor :)
Thank you so much and welcome to my channel.
What a beautiful pantry all your hard (hard) work will certainly payoff.
Renea can you do a video when you do recipes with your dried eggs . please i would love to know more about using them.
Absolutely.
When I make ramen for the kids as a quick meal our rule of thumb to make it complete is add veggies n a protein source .. I had some chicken from a rotisserie and threw in peas n carrots n green beans it was filling! Also I add a raw egg and let it cook with the ramen and it’s like having egg drop soup with noodles
Since I just found you a few weeks ago, I’m going back & catching up on some things. Idk how you made your tomato powder, but 1870’s homestead kept all their slipped tomato peels/seeds etc from canning-tossed them in a freezer bag then freeze dried them. They use the powder for tomato paste or like you said, as a thickener. They love it.
I just freeze dried tomatoes and then ground them up.
Wow! I have pantry envy haha. That is a beautifully stocked pantry you should be proud! -Cara 😍
Very impressive! Those shelves are awesome! Lots and lots of work; the best kind. I love a full pantry!
I'm watching from Germany, hearing 'brats' really made me smile.
I just came to the place when you talk about your grandparents. Vienna, and also Stuttgart, are known for their great cooking. People from Stuttgart and surrounding area are also known for being ingenious, thrifty, and a bit stingy. They know how to make a life from almost nothing.🤩
Oh and both of my grand parents were fabulous cooks. My grand father's last name was was Meljnek. My grandmother's maiden name was Priska. Thank you
Beautiful pantry. Please put some kind of cord or Dowels in front of your shelves in case of earthquake. You dont want to lose all your hard work. The earth patterns seem to be changing all over-so as a precaution put a guard around your shelves andmake sure the storage unit is bolted to the studs in the wall. Thank you for sharing!
It is a good idea, however, we have never had a earthquake in northern Michigan.
I knew your diet was doing you good when I saw how easily you crouched down to show that second shelf! Great video, thank you.
Hi Renée, yes I agree with you that there's something comforting about knowing that you have a healthy store of food that'll last longer than a year. I have been canning applesauce and apple butter it seems like forever. But I'm finally done. I had a mishap when I was on a ladder picking apples this year. The ladder went one way and I went the other way. I got checked out at the ER, but it's taking me a while to heal. It didn't slow me down much because I had things to get done.
Omg PLEASE do a bagel video!! This is next on my “conquering basics” list so I’d be delighted to learn from you! ❤
Listening to you is like listening to the women in my family
I feel the exact same way. ❤️
I make cranberry juice by adding a cup of whole cranberries, 1/2cup sugar and fill the quart jar with water. Then pressure can it for 60 minutes. Then place it on the shelf and let it set till it turns a pretty pink color. My granddaughters love it.
I have just watched your video and I have to say I am totally impressed. Alot of work but well worth it. Loved your family/friends who came in to see you. Your are like how I was raised.
I use tomato powder in everything. Just for flavor even when I dont want a tomato flavor, I will add a small amount to brown gravy or roasts. It just gives it a depth of flavor, it is almost like it intensifies the other flavors you are using without the tomato flavors. I do not know if I explained that well but it is so good. I even use it to make pasta noodles 🤗 with a little seasonings, it is delishous. I use it in my broths for canning. Hope it helps. God bless
Hi Enjoyed your pantry tour! You could use up some of your fruit cocktail with Dolly Partons Cuppa cake to use it up. It’s really easy and simple, just a cup of self rising flour, a cup of sugar and a cup of fruit cocktail. I don’t can bean soup but I like to can baked beans and chili beans. They taste so much better than store bought. Hope you have a great night!
Thank you , I am going to try that recipe.
So glad you are done. I still have stew, apples and cabbage left to can. Doing the stew right now. Will do 14 quarts. Pickled coleslaw tomorrow and apples in syrup. No rest!
Busy, Busy. But oh so rewarding.
You are the only person on RUclips beside just a few who, bought their own food freeze dryer, I believe Becky from acre homestead also purchased her own. It's funny to me because you can tell who Harvest Right reached out because, they try to promote it. But good work. I wish I could afford a Harvesrt freeze dryer. Love your video and I love how you are so transparent. Thanks again.
Pressure cooker in winter heats the house! Cabbage rolls sounds good!! Crack out the VHS tape collection!!; You're all set!! I may starve; but I won't freeze! lol Thanks for the show friend.
Loved this video and the story of your grandmother reminded me of stories I’ve heard of my great grandmother. She had 10 kids and cooked everything from scratch on a wood stove. During the depression, sometimes they wouldn’t eat unless me great grandad caught a rabbit. And then they all had to share that one rabbit. But they survived and didn’t starve.
You could make smoothies out of the ugly mixed fruit. Add some frozen bananas and some milk and you’re good. The grand kids would probably enjoy it too
Renea I love your video's it is like talking to a good friend . I love your pantry so pretty and alot of hard work. so so good God bless you
This is my first video with you. I feel like I’m home. Especially the green bean lament. 😂
And yes, I’m already subscribed
Thank you and welcome to my channel.
…much better than money in the bank 😉 Greetings from Vienna, Austria 👍❤️🇦🇹
Hello and welcome to my channel.
You have done an amazing job caring for your family. I'm so impressed. Love the tour. Can you do a garden tour some time?
All I can say is BEAUTIFUL PANTRY👏👏👏
I'm with you, all stocked and ready! What a good feeling. It sure takes a load off. Its nice to know that my hard work will make it till next garden.
I'm never done canning. Because I'm always on the lookout for a great buy that I can can up.
Hi, from across the pond! I’ve started recently to store additional food, and invested in a dehydrator. I’ve made mirepoix, dehydrated apples, onions, and mushrooms to date. I’m dairy allergic so tend to cook everything from scratch, so ready mix cakes and sauces are mainly a nono, but I do buy vegan mayo in larger quantities just in case! Food prep hasn’t been a big thing over here, so for most of us Brits, it’s a whole new world, so great to see your pantry!
Mirepoix?
Beautiful job on your working pantry. I admire the work you put into it. Thank you for inspiring me.
What a great tour! Everything looks awesome. I’d love to see your cookbook collection one day and know what some of your favorites are. Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge ❤
New Subscriber! I homeschool and my daughter who is a senior is wanting to learn canning and putting up food. Your channel is going to be such a great help!
Wow, that's a happy place right there! You put in so much work and it paid off. Subscribing to learn a thing or two 🤗
This is the first of your videos that I've watched. I subscribed.
I keep home and commercially canned food a lot longer than two years.
Oh, my goodness...eighteen children! Your grandmother was a hard worker to feed them and to be pregnant eighteen times. My hat is off to her.
No kidding, I can not imagine being pregnant 18 times. She was a gem!
Wonderful pantry tour!!! I hear you about the storing of water. You had me laughing. ❤❤❤
I am so glad I found your channel! I have been racking my brain on how to turn a bedroom into a working pantry. I garden, can and now dehydrate.
You are so knowledgeable about organizing your pantry. You make me feel like I am your neighbor.
I have subscribed to your channel now and will be watching , listening to your videos while getting my new pantry in order!
Thank you so much
Have a wonderful day
Kathie from Illinois
Wonderful pantry,tfs, stumbled upon your channel and am enjoying...those yellow beans are my favourite...I love then as a cols salad..a little salt,olive oil,brown vinegar and freshly diced garlic..chill well and enjoy with brats...
Very inspiring !! Thanks for sharing . I am still developing my pantry . I hope to keep about a year's worth on hand and work from season to season
The shelling beans could be soup like the 15 bean soup,
Well done!! A lot of work but such a comfort.
Your pantry is so beautiful! Thanks for the tour.
NICE JOB, it's a lot more work than anyone can imagine. TheReaper!
You may want to check out Three Rivers Homestead. She makes homemade marshmallow fluff and then freeze dries it. She drops them in her kids hot cocoa
Greetings from East Texas! Very nice pantry! Appreciate the tour.
I love your videos and especially love seeing the grandkids now and then.
I have a lot of those packages of potatoes because there’s just the two of us and when we want mashed potatoes we have it. Other than that we don’t eat potatoes.
I have the rice packets too. Then frozen vegetables.
We are well stocked up. Also buy fresh and canned beans and canned potatoes and beets canned. I’m stocked in rice and beans fresh and canned and on noodles and meat and cheese.
Got other stuff in pantry for baking and stuff. Got to have your spices as well.
Great video
Great! You don't have the holes you had the last time you filled your pantry. I'm trying to keep mine restocked.
What a great pantry! Thank you for sharing!
Quite the pantry, nice job! Wish I had found your channel earlier I would have paid for having you freeze dry some summer vegetables for my budding pantry, as MI has great produce/ farmers market.
Lovely Renee!! Thankyou for your effort in making this video for us.
Please pass along your cranberry recipes, especially the granola. Thank you!
I keep my homecanned goods for 5 years. If I haven't used it by then I dump it. If it's stored in a cool dark place it will be fine. I've had very few jars unseal but I always watch those lids just in case.
My grandmother was from Croatia. She was a trained chef and worked for the head judge in her town until she married and came to Detroit. My grandfather owned a bar in Dearborn by Fords Rouge factory. Grandma would cook and the men who worked at Ford would come for lunch. The mayor often came also. Like your Grandma everything she made was from scratch. And the baking she could do!! Walnut tortes that contained no flour! She would make strudel dough on a white linen tablecloth on her kitchen table. She would walk around the table stretching the dough with her fingertips and never tear it. It was thin enough to read a newspaper through. She lived to cook!!
Grapefruit juice and grapefruit is a no no if you take a statin for cholesterol. That makes me sad because I love grapefruit!
Thank you for the pantry tour! I enjoyed seeing it!!
Love love love your wonderful pantry Renee ♥️
Thank you for sharing! Everyone should have a pantry ❤
You look so exhausted doing that video but im always keen to see other peoples pantry :) Hi from Australia and thanks for sharing
Bounty full such a good feeling ….love ur pantry …love ur channel..Montreal 🇨🇦 canada 🇨🇦🙋🏼♀️👍❤️
You're such a wonderful person Renee. I'm chubby too but around my house it's called fluffy because fluffy is nicer to snuggle. My weenie dog is fluffy too.
Oh I love it. 🥰
Thank you so much for sharing all your hard work with us and I sure wish we had a freeze dryer. Will be looking forward to seeing your root cellar ❤️
Great job! Proud of you.
That pantry looks great I am soo glad you have been blessed to have all that to be able to eat on!
Wow! Thank you for sharing your pantry! It is impressive and yes, I am inspired!
Just amazing. Wonderful pantry. 😊
Thank you so very much for sharing with us! You are so kind! 🥰💕🙏
Your pantry looks wonderful, but if you have an earthquake, everything will slide or bounce off of those shelves. If you put a barrier about 3 inches above your shelf bottom it will give you great protection. I did this just before a 4.8 earthquake and saved everything. My neighbors were not so fortunate!
Michigan dosen't normally have earthquakes. We get horrific blizzards.
So excited to have found your channel! Very motivating!
Beautiful, you are a wealth of information. I appreciate you!
I am so glad I found your channel!! You have so much knowledge and you share it so graciously.
I'm so happy for you. You can afford to eat. It's better than money.
Great job. Thanks for sharing. 💚
Looks amazing....all your hard work has paid off...
Awesome pantry tour. I need to organize my stockpile
I love your enthusiasm! What an amazing pantry, new subscriber here❤
Welcome to my channel and thank you.
I don't trust tunafish in a packet. One pin hole and you could get poisoned by it. Your canning hoard is impressive. Nice work Michigan neighbor!
Hey Renee, I made some ham bone broth with the ham bone that I got from Thanksgiving and Christmas last year. Yes I used it for bean soups and just to cook dry beans to have with rice or cornbread. And it was really wonderful and I do love it but that is something that I haven't find in the grocery stores down here in Florida. I wanted to do some with ham hocks but the price of ham hock was over my budget so when the hams were on sale that's when I got that. But I do love watching your channel and the things that you do. Take care stay safe and God bless y'all
First time here, just amazing self canned goods. The colors are just beautiful!
This was a longgg video, but I was able to get some ideas where my pantry was lacking. But girlfriend, your pantry has it all!
I wanted you guys to see it all. Sorry that took so long but you can skip around the video.
@@LittleVillageHomestead No, no, Renea, I watched the entire video. It was great! Wishing I had a root cellar though, otherwise it's difficult to store fresh things like squashes, potatoes, onions, garlic, etc I'm in SE Michigan near lake saint clair.
Renae you remind me so much of my Grama Ferne. You are teaching me so much about food storage. Thank you and God Bless You!!
Oh how I have pantry envy! I'm getting there but yours is very organized.
Awesome pantry. .I'm so jealous!!
I loved this video! Super smart! 🥰💕🙏👍🏻👍🏻
Very impressive!! Good job!
Love your pantry!!
Good job stocking up 👍 Looks great! 🙏❤️✌️
Awesome What a grateful
Worker u
Are
I love your shelves 😊
Kale grows crazy and is awesome in a mixed green combination. Im not a fan of it but I use alot of it dried. Mainly for nutrition.
Just finding your channel. You seem just like talking to an old friend back home. Thanks for being so down to earth and friendly!
I just love your channel! I am 30 , and I am new to canning and gardening, and have been stocking my pantry. You give me inspiration 😉 Just subscribed.
