Please tell grandma I said "Thank You" for her brief appearance... I understand her being camera shy... Her sitting there and snapping beans reminded me of my mom, that was her favorite job. I appreciate that warm memory...
These scenes reminded me of visiting my grandparents in the summer ... if seemed that if folks came to visit, all were were either shelling peas or snapping beans while chatting away.
I just love guys and y’all family y’all remind me of my family when I was growing up we y’all had to help around on the garden that my dad planted and I loved it now I can all the time one of my brothers did to but he pasted last yr but I just love doing it
As a grandma gardener I have learned that prior to any big rain.....pick your tomatoes that are blushing. Let them ripen in the house. Better than having them split.
Y'alls garden and homestead are by far the most beautiful to me than all of the other homesteading channels combined. I love everything about it. No fancy built beds or gardens; just beds built with scrap wood, compost that Ben worked his butt off to make, hard work, and love. It gives us viewers hope that we can create something similar without breaking the bank or having to have paid help to get it accomplished. Absolutely gorgeous!!!
It always tickles me to hear Meg say "Bye" so cheerfully at the end of the videos (... and now Buggie) after she's been working from sunrise to sunset. Can a woman maybe 30-40 years her senior say "When I grow up, I want to be just like Meg Hollar!"?
Thank you for not going to the dark side. Love that you are keeping your channel a real homesteading channel. So many others have gone more corporate or a look at all I have! Keep up the good works.
That's exactly how I feel. I've as topped watching popular channels, some are friends of the Hollars for those same reason. If I wanted to watch their hired hand work...
I’m going to name names here. The 2 that bug me the most are the “ Fit Farmer”, they have become a “ holy roller” ochannel. Not that I care if they are religious but that’s not why I watch homesteading. They seem to always be away from their homestead at talking engagements. And just from the little they do show of their homestead nothings getting done. No weeds should ever be 6 ft tall in a maintained garden. Then there Justin and his family. They spent months clearing a small space for grazing. Over 100 days, only working an hour here and there. Then bring in the hired men to clear a huge area in just 2 days! Well that’s time we’ll never get back. I’m sorry the kids keep getting hurt or sick but man that family sure does talk a lots about all their medical issues. They do so little actually homesteading that even the big greenhouse has almost nothing planted. I don’t begrudge them improving their home but I think they have lost sight of how they got to the point of being able to do all that. It’s because we have kept the financially going. By our likes and views. Now that they have pay to play it’s almost like we have been forgotten…it’s quite sad.
Can I wish Buggy a very happy 3rd Birthday - my goodness how those 3 years have flown and what a beautiful little person Lilyanne is (I hope ive spelt her name right) Sending love to you all xxxxxxx
Your grandmother don't look old enough to be a grandmother. Watching her snap greenbeans reminded me of my grandmother. It is also nice to see everyone working together to make short work of jobs. I also like seeing a husband who isn't afraid to help his wife in the canning process, you two just feel my heart with joy. Love your content.
I understand we have to preserve it or lose it this time of year but take some time and enjoy Meme. Happy birthday Buggy!!! The cutest 3 year old on RUclips.
Abbondanza is the Italian word for abundance which is what comes to mind when I see those baskets full of the beautiful produce you’ve grown. I love seeing the whole family helping Meg in the kitchen. It’s a lot of work but it fills the pantry with abbondanza! ☺️
Watching you two work together is very beautiful. I have never had that with my spouse. I love watching you bring your kitchen alive over and over again. Great to see your grandma, I bet she is loving it there. Great video. God bless
A big kitchen building with windows that you can open all around. Big enough to put a big extra freezer and a big stove where you could do canning and food prepping. That way, your home stays cool and uncluttered from the produce.
I used to do work for a couple and the mister used a portable shed as his outdoor bakery. He loved to bake cookies. An outdoor kitchen sounds lovely for the summer.
My grandma and grandpa built their home, they lived in the base while they finished the top floor. So my grandmother had a downstairs kitchen. Their days of living in the basement were over by the time I came around. But she always had that kitchen she canned down there they have massive gardens. And she had this big pantry. The door was a curtain, you’d pull the curtain back, and it was just stuffed with home canned fruits and vegetables. She canned everything. She even had canned fish and canned beef. There’s were cherries, and peaches, apples and apricots, berries and just everything. to me it was beautiful. My mom canned too but not nearly to that extent. Those are my childhood memories in the 70s and 80s.
@@cynthiablagg3690my grandmother had a basement kitchen along with her upstairs kitchen. Her downstairs kitchen was a place of wonder for me. It had all the the old time stuff, the 50s fridge just for instance. My grandpa had these bar glasses with women in skimpy clothing. When they got cold as with an iced beverage, the clothing disappeared. I must have been about ten when I realized it.
I was watching your video at 9pm and suddenly thought "Beans! I harvested green beans and then didn't bring them inside!". I had to run out back and rescue my day's bucket o' beans. At least the raccoons didn't get them first. 😂
Just discovered the Hollar Family recently; now I'm a fanatic about all of you and binge-watching every day. I so admire you and your family and the life you have chosen. I grew up on a farm and loved it tremendously; however, you are a fine homesteading crew! I finally tried to bake bread like you do; after 60 years, I can finally bake a loaf of bread and I make killer buttery soft biscuits like my mother did...finally. I cannot get my loaves to brown, even with the broil on high. My family has fallen in love with the bread. Thank you, thank you, Meg!!
Lol, I'm in the same boat in regards to beans😊 my neighbor is begging people to go pick her beans. She is tired of picking beans. I'll go over when it is cooler this afternoon. Right now, I'm canning peaches 🍑 😋 I may need a vacation when harvest is all in😊
I had 8 gallons bags of frozen tomatoes that turned into sauce in December last year. Meg you are phenomenal! Hello Gramma! Buggie is singing! Your family gives me hope!
Meg, Hi it's Cathy from Monterey TN. There is a easy way to do 🍅 tomatoes and you want have to Pell your tomatoes.. Put your tomatoes in real hot water fore a few minutes take them out put them in cold water then the skins just comes off I hope this helps you .
I'm so glad you're back !!! I hope you're having a wonderful visit with Mimi 💕❣️❣️ That's so nice that she is helping process your bountiful harvest. You're the best Mimi ❣️❣️❣️
Always happy to spend a day in Buggy's kitchen! Especially when there's Halla-pene-lows! Good heavens I'm gonna die from the cuteness overload! 😁😍 Glad you had a great visit with your Grandma!
I must say, by far, you are my favorite homesteaders to watch. Your teamwork is amazing between husband, wife, and children. You all work so hard. You will help each other when the moment arises. The best thing is that you enjoy the benefits of your hard work and you are a family that has a purpose and you do it together ❤️ I love that you are not trying to be materialistic and continue to appreciate what God has provided. You are a beautiful family.
So glad you’re enjoying your time with Meg’s grandma😘. There was an unbelievable amount of crop preservation going on in the Hollar kitchen today🤗🤗! Continue to enjoy your time together with Meg’s grandma💜💜💜!
peppers green beans and potatoes ,add eggs and a frittata or omelette sounds like one meal. then add chicken or other meat for others. that jam could be used with coriander, cilantro to you and basil with black pepper. An amazing harvest and as a later stack of green beans that is such a bonus. the homestead life is constantly busy and no place for slackers, seeing the six of you doing the beans while Meg is as always doing so much is heartwarming. garlic, tomatoes and peppers and beans base of so many delicious meals.
This brings back memories for me, while we didn’t live on a tiny farm like yours, we lived on a large and my father planted a huge vegetable garden. We would sit around the table and snap beans. Sometimes our friends would come over and my mom would enlist their help, paying us all in ice cream. She used our onions and bell peppers to make tomato sauce. Shes just put it all in the blender them dump it into a big pot to reduce. Then into glass jars and canned. They froze our corn, and cucumbers became dill pickles.and that was just the produce we didn’t have for dinner. My dad like to put everything from the garden on the table. One year my mom decided to learn how to can potato’s because we had so many small potatoes that year. She figured they be good in stew and pot roast. But once she took a jar out and made fried potatoes with them and they were so good! Of course there were also plenty in the freezer. Those were good days when I was a kid. My grandparents had a couple of acres, they raised their own beef and had gardens like yours in the North Idaho panhandle. We Loved going there we had our cousins and played with frogs in grandma’s window wells. We raced them. Grandma said it was okay as long as we put them back in the basement window wells. I love to see children raised with all this.
Little Meg Singin'!! She's learnin' to "slide" her notes. That's where a lot of the feelin' comes from. It comes from her heart. I'm not sure you can really teach that, certainly not at her age anyway. They either have it or they don't. ❤❤
When you don't have enough hot peppers to make something big, you can still make relish. I think it's important to recognize that you both have talents. While your planning and planting the garden and looking after the critters, your better half is looking after the happiness of the reast of the family while planning how to keep you in meals. You both rock.
Gotta love it... yeah, I'm processing 5 different things, but I can do garlic and then dinner with homemade biscuits. 😅. We cannot multitask that well.🥴 Those beans looked overripe. I leave those on the vine to go to seed. Your hot peppers are not hot because you have sweet peppers too close to them. They crossed. Heat shows up in the result of the crossing. Inversely, you could get a hot bell pepper. (I breed peppers.) I made one so hot this year that it stung my eyes to cut it. Yum!🥵 Your tomato harvest is similar to mine... too much rain. It simply will not stop raining! Brassicas are loving it, though. Summer squash is toast. Potatoes are pretty good because that garden drains well. Enjoy the extra farmsteading hands!
Congrats to Meg! What a huge amount of work preserving your beautiful, bountiful harvest. I'm tired just watching you! Those peppers were just beautiful.
Just a thought, you haven’t built a deck off the patio doors, you might consider building an outdoor kitchen for prep and preserving. Maybe one wall could be and pantry for canned goods you have made.
A few decades ago (well four or five now) my father set out a flower bed on the front of the house. Somebody or something dropped a couple of tommy toes into the bed. And for years after that the flower bed became a tommy toe bed. One he didn't have to do anything to maintain. A very tasty snack whenever anybody wanted one.
Aah, this is awesome! I have seriously stalked y’all, on all your videos, I was about to run out, because I’ve binge watched for a week! I’m caught up now, and you just posted this video! Absolutely love your content and family! I’ve been canning nonstop all summer, y’all are a great inspiration to manyZ, much love and prayers from East Tennessee! 💞
Hello, Beautiful Hollar Homestead Family: I know a "few" more words than "amazing", but why search my brain for another word when amazing describes you so well? Such energy! Such diverse skills! Do you ever take a break?? Keep up the great work. Please tell your children we appreciate them too. They are beautiful children and your little girl is a doll! Thank you!
Meg your a super woman your family are so so lucky to have you as their mum what a cook hats off to you. Your hubby too he works hard to produce all that goodness xx
I love hearing Buggy tell what y'all did. When she said you cut up jalapenos, that was so cute. I think she needs her own episode where she can narrate what's going on. 😂
What an absolute blessing to have the visit from family. I just love seeing how your family runs the homestead as a team. Our homestead isn't quite the team as I would like. Your gardens have done really well. Even with the things that fail, there is still plenty.
Years from now your children will look back on the video and remember how Mimi came and visited and all of you did veggies together…..how nice…..lucky children. Aren’t you freeze drying tomatoes and green beans, even peppers. Makes a great soup mix in a jar comes winter 🥶
Hi, not sure where you are or if you are in North Carolina. Last night was one scary storm. Tree took down about 9 power lines and we were without electricity for 16 hours. Anyway, I’m so glad I didn’t miss much. Terrible when you can watch and know there is something to watch. I’m still waiting for my baking lesson!
Roasted garlic in a pan with oil then Jared up for freezing or canning is something you will thank yourself for later. Use it on pizza, spread it on a roast, add it to a stew etc. The flavor of the roasted garlic is so much more than plain garlic. You have to try it out. Mimi will have to plan on visiting every year during harvest time to keep the tradition of canning and preserving with not only her granddaughter but her great-granddaughter too. What awesome memories you are creating!
My goodness, what a harvest!!! You have a bumper crop of beans, peppers, and tomatoes! It's great to see your Grandmother visiting!!! Tomato jam and pepper jelly looks delicious...plus it's pretty in the jars!!
No vampires are coming in y’all’s house with all that garlic hanging around! 😂 Y’all have a bountiful garden and will be eating good this winter with all those delicious can goods.
Please tell grandma I said "Thank You" for her brief appearance... I understand her being camera shy... Her sitting there and snapping beans reminded me of my mom, that was her favorite job. I appreciate that warm memory...
These scenes reminded me of visiting my grandparents in the summer ... if seemed that if folks came to visit, all were were either shelling peas or snapping beans while chatting away.
I totally get it, this brings me a wonderful memory of my grandmother snapping beans out on the back porch.
My great-grandma made tomato preserves, yum! Didn't taste like tomatoes, but sweet jam.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Grandma, I'd love to see you. I've lost both of my Grandma's who I was VERY close to. 😢please 🙏🏻 let them film you. I want to cry 😢
Meg you are an amazing woman. Your children shall rise up and call you blessed. Truly a Proverbs 31 wife and mother 🙏🏻💕🙏🏻
It always tickles me to hear Meg say "Bye" so cheerfully at the end of the videos (... and now Buggie) after she's been working from sunrise to sunset. Can a woman maybe 30-40 years her senior say "When I grow up, I want to be just like Meg Hollar!"?
I literally just told my husband that and I'm 51.
Thank you for not going to the dark side.
Love that you are keeping your channel a real homesteading channel.
So many others have gone more corporate or a look at all I have!
Keep up the good works.

Your Mimi must be so proud of you, Meg ! Y'all rock the homestead life !!!!!!
I love that Buggy has a song for everything.
Theres no stopping Meg

What a Busy Day... Hello Meg's Grandma.
Oh yeah! You’re back!🎈
That mess on the backsplash is how you know its good.
All of you work HARD…however, NO ONE WORKS HARDER THAN MEG!
I understand we have to preserve it or lose it this time of year but take some time and enjoy Meme.
Happy birthday Buggy!!! The cutest 3 year old on RUclips.
Grandma has to be so proud of watching Meg can all the harvest!
Abbondanza is the Italian word for abundance which is what comes to mind when I see those baskets full of the beautiful produce you’ve grown. I love seeing the whole family helping Meg in the kitchen. It’s a lot of work but it fills the pantry with abbondanza! ☺️
Things have gone full circle. Meg at Buggy’s age helped Mimi, now Mimi helps Meg . 🌻🌻💕💕
Watching you two work together is very beautiful. I have never had that with my spouse. I love watching you bring your kitchen alive over and over again. Great to see your grandma, I bet she is loving it there. Great video. God bless
She is such a happy little buggy.... always singing and singing and singing.... LOVE IT!

Yes an outdoor summer kitchen

Welcome to the Hollar fans; glad you found them and the comments section.
You guys have such a beautiful relationship with living a life of homesteaders.
Such a nice harvest! You're very blessed to have Megs grandmother with you to help and share stories of Meg as a child I'm sure❤

I think your family, is by far, my absolutely favorite homestead video to watch. Thank you so much for sharing.
When we have extras, we take them to church and give to neighbors.
I busted out laughing when Ben said,”look at the stove, Lady” so love the kitchen time and listening to Buggy
My mother in law used to ask what could she do to be helpful. I always told her just sit there and look pretty.
Looks like a whole lot of magic happened in that kitchen! GO GIRL!
TIP: .... soak the garlic before shaking to peel!
...a few hours to overnight.
A much more pleasant and shorter experience!!! ❤

Thank GOD. You have no idea how much I missed you.
You are sucha great husband and father.ilove watching yall videos.
I love how Ben says..."I'd really like to try... (insert any preserved food or other here)" - and Meg goes..."Sure, I can do that." You guys SO rock!
I love watching buggy grow up,I've been watching from the time you started remodeling the trailer and expecting buggy. BYW, she is so cute and smart.
Have you ever tried cutting the tomato suckers off and planting them?
Little Meg Singin'!! She's learnin' to "slide" her notes. That's where a lot of the feelin' comes from. It comes from her heart. I'm not sure you can really teach that, certainly not at her age anyway. They either have it or they don't. ❤❤
Meg is marvelous.
🥰🥰🥰
Sweet Buggy singing in the background. I know y'all are enjoying your time with Mimi.
When you don't have enough hot peppers to make something big, you can still make relish. I think it's important to recognize that you both have talents. While your planning and planting the garden and looking after the critters, your better half is looking after the happiness of the reast of the family while planning how to keep you in meals. You both rock.
I don’t understand how with so much land and needed improvements Ben and the boys are always in the kitchen with mom.
I bet the bees helped with the great harvest,and Happy Birthday Buggy!! 🍅🫑🥰
Gotta love it... yeah, I'm processing 5 different things, but I can do garlic and then dinner with homemade biscuits. 😅. We cannot multitask that well.🥴
Those beans looked overripe. I leave those on the vine to go to seed.
Your hot peppers are not hot because you have sweet peppers too close to them. They crossed. Heat shows up in the result of the crossing. Inversely, you could get a hot bell pepper. (I breed peppers.) I made one so hot this year that it stung my eyes to cut it. Yum!🥵
Your tomato harvest is similar to mine... too much rain. It simply will not stop raining! Brassicas are loving it, though. Summer squash is toast. Potatoes are pretty good because that garden drains well.
Enjoy the extra farmsteading hands!
Congrats to Meg! What a huge amount of work preserving your beautiful, bountiful harvest. I'm tired just watching you! Those peppers were just beautiful.
Beautiful garden,happy family
Meg you are wonder woman in the kitchen! Awesome day in the garden and kitchen! And Happy 3rd Birthday to Lily Anna🎉❤🎂
Just a thought, you haven’t built a deck off the patio doors, you might consider building an outdoor kitchen for prep and preserving. Maybe one wall could be and pantry for canned goods you have made.
Very impressive! Enjoy that youthful strength, health and energy!
A few decades ago (well four or five now) my father set out a flower bed on the front of the house. Somebody or something dropped a couple of tommy toes into the bed. And for years after that the flower bed became a tommy toe bed. One he didn't have to do anything to maintain. A very tasty snack whenever anybody wanted one.

Do you ever take a break?? Keep up the great work. Please tell your children we appreciate them too. They are beautiful children and your little girl is a doll! Thank you!
Glad you’re have a nice visit with grandma but so happy to see you back!
Meg you are a wonderful person.
I didn’t realize until just now the difference between a red and green bell pepper is simply to time in the sun.
The Hollar family is marked safe from vampires!!🤣
Birthday blessings dear Buggy
Meg your a super woman your family are so so lucky to have you as their mum what a cook hats off to you. Your hubby too he works hard to produce all that goodness xx
nice that you kept your trailer so your guest will have a place to stay,
hi we missed you
Great video! Poor Meg! She is so busy and diligent.
You guys certainly won't have any vampire problems with all that garlic, Dang! LOL Happy days with Grandma, priceless!
How cool you have a Gram! She looks young. You are Blessed. Enjoy
Happy Birthday Buggy!!!
Hi to MiMi. So sweet hearing thst sweet baby singing and just living the life.
my mom used to pick them green and let them tern red in house to stop the splitting
I love hearing Buggy tell what y'all did. When she said you cut up jalapenos, that was so cute. I think she needs her own episode where she can narrate what's going on. 😂
The sound of the cicadas is beautiful, feels like summer was years ago in New Zealand. Keep on filming, love you guys.
Hi Grandma glad you got to spend time with your grandchild, great grand children. They are awesome!👍🏻😊
Love how you work together as a couple and as a family. So refreshing to see! God bless!
Just starting the video so I just want to say I hope you had a great visit with your grandmother glad your grandmother can still be there
Meg needs a nap haha Lots of work
What an absolute blessing to have the visit from family. I just love seeing how your family runs the homestead as a team. Our homestead isn't quite the team as I would like. Your gardens have done really well. Even with the things that fail, there is still plenty.

Aren’t you freeze drying tomatoes and green beans, even peppers. Makes a great soup mix in a jar comes winter 🥶
What a wonderful harvest!
I bet you grandma is very proud of you Meg

Use it on pizza, spread it on a roast, add it to a stew etc. The flavor of the roasted garlic is so much more than plain garlic. You have to try it out. Mimi will have to plan on visiting every year during harvest time to keep the tradition of canning and preserving with not only her granddaughter but her great-granddaughter too. What awesome memories you are creating!
