You have lived more in your short life than more who approaching 80's , and you have touched so many life in such a short period of time I constantly can't stop thinking of the person I would still be if I hadn't found your channel : A extremely unhappy woman who hated her life and was so ashamed of her home, a woman filled with anxiety as a result of untreated trauma, a woman felt stuck and never saw a way out. But you made me see the beauty in simple living and made appreciate my rural life even more, because of you I now know to bloom where I am planted Finding your channel is a pure blessing to my soul and even if I eventually stop documenting my own journey, I will never forget you as an inspiration and my beam of light☀️.Thank you Eric and Arielle
Hi, Mayo…..I have found your channel equally inspirational and innovative. Both your channels provide unique points of view and methods for simple living. Thank you both for making my life better
Eric, here’s an old truck I was taught by my father in law, dig a hole in your garden that is at least 3 ‘ deep. Lay down plastic and straw, straw 2 feet , wheel barrow all of your potato’s and lay them in the straw, put another 2 feet of straw on top then plastic and cover with dirt. We saved 200 lbs over the winter and had potatoes until the next harvest! Worth a try, even if you do 20-30 lbs to see if it works! Good luck.
Another fine day in the life of Eric and Arielle. A Bandit cameo, a gratuitous rooster shot, and his flock of hens. Some great food to cap it all off ! Rock on you two !
Hallo, ihr seid gut. Aus den Patetos könntet ihr auch Kartoffelpuffer mit allen Zutaten fertig machen, braten und dann einfrieren. So hätte man im Winter auch etwas davon.
You’re potatoes are the living proof that we waste too much food. many of us would have thrown all of them away. Thank you for such informative and enjoyable videos
Tip: aging mustard helps to mellow it out. We made a batch of spicy brown type coarse mustard with jalapeños that was fiery when first made. It canned quite a large batch which lasted several years. After about 5 months, there was hardly any heat but all the flavor was still there.
We got 6 inches of snow here in Seattle. I realized the importance of not dropping your keys in the snow. Thank you for giving us hope of a better life.
I watched a YT channel that is in Russia. They dig huge holes after harvesting the potatoes and beets. They bagged the potatoes and beets in those netted bags. Then they layered the bags with straw in between each layer. This was like in Siberia so it gets really cold there. They covered the holes with dirt into domes. This kept them all winter without freezing. The holes were not really deep but slightly below the frost line. Perhaps that could work for you.
Thats how people in the south at least prior to 1950 did it. Dig a hole line it with gunny sacks, stored all kinds of root Veg, then covered with straw then dirt. go out and get them as you needed them . Making sure you recover . It's sorta primative root cellar, Or poor mans.
This is how most Gardeners’ in Ireland will store potatoes but they do it in a heap above the ground as water table also too high. It works great but temps only as low as -15C.
I was thinking from your last video you guys should make your alaskan photos into puzzles you guys have some of the most beautiful cinematography ive ever seen i would love to have a puzzle.
The last two years I have stored my potatoes in insulated coolers stored in a unheated room.I need to watch for any moisture build up inside at times otherwise I am happy with this storage.The potatoes stay firm, no sprouting until May.I also stored my next year saved seeds in that also.
If this just came up in my feed with this title & I didn't know who it was, I'd never watch it, but I watch all your videos & throughly enjoy all of them! Please keep them coming!
Could you make potato flour or starch also, I make mashed potatoes with sour cream and freeze them in nuggets. The reheat beautifully. They would probably travel to your cabin well.
I love how you have evolved. No loud music. You love each other so much and all your family on your land. You stay busy which is good and away from other people. I have enjoyed your videos for a long time. Love your doggies (babies). Will you get more dogs soon? God bless you guys!
Those are some happy chickens..I know we raised three hundred at a time on the farm when I was a kid... I know that I want a taste of the bbq sauce...A meal is good when shared....And becomes great when shared with loved ones.....My very best for you and yours...Jim
Very good ways to further your food storage. Try fermenting the mustard on the counter for a couple days, helps the seeds crack easie when you blend the mixture. I still have some taters left also, I feed the sprouts to the chickens. They don't mind extra snacks in these frigid temps. Stay warm friends!❤
Happy Valentine’s Day. Thanks for the great video as usual. Glad we got an update on the root crops. I liked both mustard and BBQ sauce. I used to make to order for large batches of Ribs in GA. Easy with the cane sugar syrup and molasses there. I realize you cook a lot like I do whatever is to hand or needs to be used, but I would really enjoy a cookbook with your great photography and some backstory. I think a lot of your viewers would purchase. I know you have lives and it takes a lot for something like that but what the heck I’m greedy. Love the channel thank you.
In the grocery store we put black tarps over the potatoes to keep them from sprouting, I don't know if you did that, but if not , a dark cloth might help keep your saved ones longer.
Just when I was grumpily thinking "I bet there's nothing decent to watch on RUclips ", I see the smiling faces of two of my favourite people! You guys always instil calm and also a bit of a nudge to get off my backside and do something useful 😄 I'm in the planning stages of autumn planting- my entire summer garden, apart from garlic and lettuce, was a disaster this year.
I'm not sure if I already mentioned this, but on the website Nourished Kitchen there is a great recipe for fermented mustard; I think you would enjoy it
I bought a 50 lb bag of potatoes last year. It was right near Thanksgiving time. Cooked up 10 lbs for Thanksgiving. Canned the other 40 lbs. It was my first time canning potatoes. I taught myself the water bath and pressure can last year. I'm hooked.
You two are such an inspiration! Thank you, for another rad video and sharing your journey with “us”! 💓Happy Valentines Day!!! 💓 You guys are such a beautiful set of soulmates! 💕 Sending love to your boys too, Happy Valentine’s Day, Beau and Bandit, from Eureka Springs, Arkansas! -Sara
Arielle you are so amazing! I could learn a lot from you! And Eric you are so nice and so good to your wife.... You are both a Star to me love every video you show! You are both very good company! Love you both.
I am going to can potatoes today because unlike in Alaska, potatoes hardly last a week in Florida! They are abundant and cheap from Idaho right now. With the hard summer tropical rains, we have not had success growing potatoes, even in bags! @Simple Living Alaska. I will be keeping into a bucket most of the day as well. I love the idea of putting fresh boiling water before caninng. Elderberry has medicinal properties as an antiviral. Can it like juice next time.
I was surprised watching your potato harvest video that you suggested moisture in the room "bathroom" type moisture to store your potatoes. We have been gardening for 40 years and I have always dried potatoes in the sun and store potatoes in cold dark dry room. We actually keep a dehumidifier in our storage room to ensure the moisture remains below 50 percent. I have eaten my potatoes right up to planting prep in April. I was very impressed to see your harvest, very nice potatoes in size and amount. Your videos are excellent, thanks for sharing with us. Be well in Alaska!
Well, I'm pretty sure there's not much I can say that someone else has not already said... With that said, I just freaking LOVE you guys. You're the very best at what you do, how you team up, love each other, take care of Bo, Bandit n the birdies & just EVERYTHING!!!!!!🙏💕🙏🤗💥💥💥⛄ 👵67inHotFL😎😜😁
You two are the biggest inspirations to my partner Carl and I. Your videos have become part of our very early morning routine of coffee and inspiration! Thank you!
Have you considered cutting out a trap door in your floor climb down build 4 walls to wall it off from the rest of the area under the floor and use it for your root veggie storage?
I was told by an old farmer to store potatoes around 38°. If they sprout simply break sprouts off and put them back in storage. Scab can be caused by ashes and if they where planted where there was a pile of brush burnt. Love the videos.
Wonderful video y’all!! Just a side note, down here in SW La we would use dat awesome mustard and marinate our wild game meat with dat and buttermilk. Adds a lot of flavor. Ayeee!! SW La fan!
Such a nice video,this video brought back fond memories growing up on the farm, so often mom and her friends would do canning,we grew are own garden,so I know the feeling from garden to canning to eating what u reap from your hard work. Yes back then people worked a job 8 hours and came home to more work,but I agree with Eric and Arielle that it's nice and so rewarding to know where your food came from. Liked the mustard recipe,that's something I've never attempted,but now I think I will. U too have come so far since I started watching u,now I try and look for all to watch take care u too.
I love how you reused an unloved flavor to make a dynamic bbq sauce! I hadn’t heard you say “cowboy candy” in awhile, so that was nice too. Lots of work, thanks for another beautiful (in its own way) video.
Those potato roots reminds me of this one time when I was working in a produce department in a grocery store. I was weighing some culls on our scale when I noticed something peeking out behind the scale. It was the stalk of a yellow onion that had fallen behind the scale. This sucker was a solid four feet tall. How nobody noticed it before then is beyond me.
PrefosteredSundays, Off topic, but love the kitty in your pic! They definitely make some yummy things. I'd never even considered making my own mustard. Pretty cool!
@@cmi7439 @C Mi Thank you! His name is Snow and he is absolutely adorable. It's so cool how they make so many things from scratch. Until now I didn't even know what made up mustard.
Yes agree, your videos are the bomb! I may not always comment but I have watched ALL of them! Love this mustard idea using the cowboy candy marinade !! WOOT WOOT!!! ❤️ you both and thanks for being so creative! Loved the ice fishing videos too😃. ❤️ Kristy in Missouri 😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
In the UK we had potato graves to keep potatoes over the winter. You dig a trench, put straw down, place the potatoes carefully, cover with straw then pile the soil back over them to insulate. Whether you could insulate enough in Alaska is another matter.
Discovered your channel over the last month and it's been a pleasure. At 62 years old, it's never too late to start eating better quality food and start cooking the basics at home. You guys are quite an inspiration. I think that if people spent more time watching your videos and less time watching TV news, things would be in a much better place. Thanks for the inspiration!
I have found the only way to preserve potatoes is use garbage cans 50 gallon drums you put in a layer of sand your potatoes sand Alara gunny sack Moore's and more potatoes more sand Larry gunny sack and you continue the process until they your Barrel is full I've never done it myself but I've had potatoes out of those barrels a year later and it was like they just came out of the garden
I make mustard all the time. I find it way easier to make one jar, of each kind I keep around, as I need it and not can them. All of the ingredients are shelf stable or dry so making a small batch several times a year is way easier than making a big batch and water bathing a bunch of jars.
I BINGED watched your channel, today. Your reactions to catching that rainbow trout was CLASSIC. I was waiting for a new vid. Thank you.

I'm a chef and you have great favor talents. BBQ to me is clean out the fridge. Never to be duplicated
My favorite way to cook, "what do I have and what can I make with it."
Tip for the chips. Soak the slices in salt water for 30min before frying.
You’re potatoes are the living
proof that we waste too much food. many of us would have thrown all of them away. Thank you for such informative and enjoyable videos
I love listening to the lids pop as the jars seal, so satisfying ☺️
Everytime I watch you canning I get the urge but it doesn't take long to go away. Still it's great for those who are loyal and smart enough to do it.
