@@deborahsherwood8501 Weird. Give it a try now. It should be working. I'm eternally great to all of the modern 'steaders who stopped by to visit yesterday. It means a lot to me.
Kudos to you for allowing your daughter to help with the day to day chores. Many parents wouldn't let their kids handle boiling hot water and glass jars etc. My kids are mostly grown but I let them try everything on their own, great learning experience without parents constant fussing. Makes strong and independant adults. Great job!
Al, if you want wood chips...man I got tons, and more scheduled to be delivered at 7 tomorrow morning. Morgan has an awesome barn cat video too! His videos have been a great help to when we adopted 3 cats from the animal shelter. For the Elderberries, I got hooked by watching a video from Off Grid with Doug and Stacy where they introduced us all to Terry Durham from River Hills Harvest. That guy is an Elderberry expert. I see him as the Elderberry King! Ha Ha. Great guy too. Thanks for sharing Al!
He He He... Moose still cracks me up, every single time! "Squeak-a-squeak-squeak"!! Seriously start chuckling every time I hear him. If you are going to go on fueling things like the excavator, you should get yourself one of those cheap powered pumps like on Pure Living For Life. Although you do have a knack for making less mess than most people. LOL I wonder if that wet area is an old stream bed, or has a high water table in that area? (Maybe indication of a "seep spring".) What is that music @ 10:40? Sounds like they are saying "Hang your head"...
Al , I had one of those pumps also. Mine also broke the third time I used it You do a good job filling your tanks. I always seem to overfill when ever I use a funnel. .
There All the Family doing farm work but that feels good love it that Olivia is helping out, was a good video today. Love the PIGS and like the Chickens round the Pigs. :-)
You may have pumpkins, and squash, if you gave the pig's any after you decide to let them become breakfast grow all in there. I'm sure you've watched the living traditions homestead. Well after their pig's got a certain size they decided to move them to another spot and where they were previously lots of squash, cucumbers, and other thing's grew all over the place because they fed them those thing's all the time. You may have pumpkins or squash if you feed them some, but not sure about the beets since they don't have any seed's. Just thought I'd throw that in there. That was really nice of him to bring you all those tree's.
What kind of outside the modernstead work do you do? Mechanic or construction and what kind of construction, if that is the answer? Nice to see you and Gold Shaw get together.
Nice of Morgan to give you cuttings and a helping hand. I also like Hazelnut for NH.Your outdoor kitchen is awesome! Wish we had built one in the 70's, when we were in our twenties. Sometimes made unnecessary work for ourselves, but we had a blast learning how to become more self-sufficient! Thankful for our seasoned farm neighbors, who pointed us in the right direction! No U-Tube back then... just learn by the seat of your pants! I'm about to use U-Tube, a neighbor's input and "Sewing for Dummies", to help me learn how to sew :-). P.S - Made a cheese cake in the Instant Pot. Have a great day!
There's Moose! 2:13 all bright and early! Morning, Al! Hope you guys have a great day! Glad that snow is gone. Fingers crossed for better weather. Love from my family to yours! Also, Aiden says Hi to Olivia. :) Nice to meet you, Morgan!
The weather you described reminded me of my time in Colorado. Wake up to snow, play basketball at lunch (~70F), sleet before dinner, take a warm after dinner stroll and finally head to bed with hail hitting the roof. I was always sick as I always felt over or under dressed for the weather.
Good job guys, I am so proud of you. I wish I was younger and could start my own homestead. I am fortunate to live on a farm, even though it's not mine. Love to you all....Grandma Carol
Chestnut trees are also a good retirement plan. Expensive and high in demand timber. Plant them today, harvest their produce as years go by and harvest them 30-40 years from now for their last crop of hard cash :)
Hey Jenna we love seeing you happy happy joy joy LOL you need a RUclips channel for your kinda thing like canning and artsy stuff that you and Olivia can do it would be great and do well I nose it
Good morning, put some ribbons around the lids on the beats and stack them on the kitchen counter. They may great decorations. Beautiful vibrant colors. I especially love them at Christmas time all around the kitchen.
mmmm pickled beets. I have these beautiful trees on our property by my garden. I had never seen them before so I looked them up. They are Horse Chestnut trees, but we can't eat them. They produce lots of seeds now.
i make refrigerator beets with onion, we love them, cant keep them around the house for long! yum! my grandmothers used to can, i remember her putting wax on top of her plum jam. when does the wax get used since i noticed you didnt use any. i remember my mom and aunt going out to the apricot orchards in San Jose, CA they were allowed to pick everything left on the trees for really cheap. this must have been around around 1959/1960. Anyway they made apricot jam the next day and that has been my favorite ever since. They also went and picked black walnuts one year, divided those up amongst the family. We had walnuts for years! Now all the orchards are gone, the farms too. People had horses, sold eggs, honey and fresh produce from roadside stands. Now its all houses, strip malls & traffic congestion. Where “silicon valley” now sits. I miss those days, can’t wait to get out of here.
wax is not recommended any longer because it doesn't give a good enough seal and really it was only used with jams because with the high sugar content wax was considered good enough. wax wasn't used with beets to my knowledge.
Al what happened to the DC battery operated fuel transfer pump? I bought one after you demoed yours . It saved my turkey bacon here with my generator during the hurricane here in NC. What does an excavator run for a month rental or is it by the running hour? You have become a dirt, stump and rock magician with that equipment. Great video :) Those new bushes and trees near the drive might need a plow stick or 2 ? Thank you for the weekend come monday video. All the animals are looking happy. I checked the local papers , no word of any vets heading to the ER ! Hard to tame that Figaro farm tiger :)
NOTE- have bought one of the newer battery operated pump for transfering liquids such as gas, diesel, etc.. They are very cheap and work great, try one. I heard of it on other modern homesteader videos. You and your family are doing great with the farm.
Those are some huge lovely beets that were gifted to you and Gina...Luv that Livvie was brave enough to try lifting them out...lots of little tips i've gained following your channel...Nice video!🌰🌰
It's a smaller tree but I am surprised at how many nuts it produced this year. Most went to the stupid red squirrel, but I was able to snag about 40 or so that I'm germinating. Guess is 100ish nuts per year for a 5 inch trunk.
Good morning. Happy to see you all doing some canning. Different from the way I was taught how to so was interesting to watch. Have a blessed day and take care.
I gave our pigs a whole lot of tomatoes and they sprouted in our pigs manure pile where I stored the dirty bedding out of their sty they grew really well all on their own I thought the fresh pig manure would be way to strong as it had not composted down at all it did latter and I used it a lot in my garden as compost we bedded our pigs in a comcrete sty on rice hulls which were very cheap the sty was on the proprerty already and were not our design but they had yards built off the covered sty’s and really did a good job of offering the pigs shade which was more useful here in Australia than keeping them out of any cold weather we ran electric fences off the small yards so they had free choice to go out and graze or stay in the shade of their pens
Butternut is in decline here in Vermont - get half grown and die off - so sad. Great to see you planting Chestnuts! They all died off years ago around these parts - I assume those you planted are resistant. Elderberry are so prolific - mine sucker and I replant suckers. Make your own elderberry syrup for winter. Great to see your farm growing!
Butternuts are declining here in NH, too. Butternut canker is all over the northeast, though there are breeding programs going on that collect from the few that seem to resist it. The one's Al planted are, they said, American-Chinese hybrids. The chestnut blight affects American chestnuts, but not the Chinese. The only problem is that the Chinese species is a smaller tree with less desirable nuts. There are hybridizing programs, but also testing some with genetic modifications that bring in the resistance without losing so much of the benefits.
you need to invest in one of those pumps Al! May not need it now but...if you hurt a hand or, as you get older.....it'll be a real blessing. And they are cheap at WallyWorld!! Gina's got the ginsu knife hands goin there!! LOL! Love NH!!!
Hi Al, I was wondering can we get the story on Twittle Dee and Twittle Dum? How did you get them did they just adopt you or where they purchased just curious?
I keep my cat’s food bowl in the back of a crate that sits on top of the dogs crate. That way the cats are naturally crate trained and I can keep the dog out of the cat food.
Love pickled beetroot. An Aussie hamburger isn't complete without a slice. My mother has been making it since I was a child and it beats the commercial product hands-down. It's also good simply baked, as part of a baked dinner.
The old gentleman that I bought my elderberry bushes from told me the best way to make a tincture is to fill a quart jar with clean berries and add half a quart of vodka. Cover and let stand on a dark corner for 6 weeks. 1 teaspoon a day will keep you from all those winter colds that harass you. Prevent instead of treat! He suggested 1/2 in the am and 1/2 at evening.
ohh Could you please tell me the measurement of the brine that you made ,, EG,, 2 cups of sugar,, 3 cups of vinegar ,, Would love to know so i can try my beets,,, Thanks,, Great job Olivia you done well. I bet your friends would not get that close to the hot steam,,, Again great job,,
excavator are great. haha what I love is the RAW POWER they have. I'll bet the one you have with as much as it can lift pull shove dig and everything, probably has an engine that puts out less horsepower than my motorcycle. and that's pretty amazing. and! when you consider all it can do, gets more work done than my truck on a smaller tank of fuel. 😎
Have you checked out Darwin's page, HoneyDo Carpenter? He has a recipe for making the most awesome firestarters, or you could just buy some ready made. Thank you for sharing how you are clearing and prepping your homestead. I love that you are creating an orchard too! It was nice to meet Morgan and I am checking out his channel. Love seeing your Beloveds, Gina and Olivia! Have a blessed day, Lumnah Acres!
Lol that's so crazy re: Morgan. When you introduced him, it didn't click, I didn't recognize the name of his channel (cause I just haven't learned it yet), but as he was talking about his farm and as you were introducing him I was like "wait.....Wait......HOLD UP......" ........ Lol, I had independently of this video just discovered his channel like a few days ago and had watched some of his videos already XD That was a fun little coincidence for me xD :)) I've never had beets, pickled or otherwise. Interesting how you turned the jars over. I don't think I've ever seen anyone do that Ever. Don't the lids need to the little suction "pop" thing to finish being airtight? Great video as always. You sure did a LOT that day. Lol. You sounded so tired by the end. :)
Good morning! Homestead is looking awesome Al. See that perfectionist in you lol. I Love canning videos but have a question. Why did you turn the jars of beats upside down? Have a Blessed day you guys :)
You sound like me-it's raining again. I love chestnuts. Our stores around here haven't sold chestnuts in many years. I will have to find someone that sells them and get me some that way. Why do you turn the jars upside down. Have a Blessed Day!
i made a dozen jars of canned beets i got a 7 pound bag for 1.88 here at a local store one jar is eaten and a friend took a jar lol i dont think 10 will last me the winter it took me 3 days to do it and a week to recover but it was worth every back and leg and ankle pain i got lots of pain for lots of gain lol hugssssssssss from Ontario Canada

I love watching you both doing everything together
What a great video 👍🏻

Hi, Will you be putting poles and wire fence up to mark your new trees so you do not dig them up and the deeres do not eat them.
Will you put some chicken wire around those new plantings to keep the deer away? Great videos, really enjoy the "farm life".
Those are some huge lovely beets that were gifted to you and Gina...Luv that Livvie was brave enough to try lifting them out...lots of little tips i've gained following your channel...Nice video!🌰🌰
the hose is looking great
Those beets look so beautiful! What do you plan too do with your pumpkins? They look so good. Blessings...
Lol you have an excavator and y'all are using shovels. Beets look awesome!
I consider myself very lucky to have a wild butternut tree on my homestead. So tasty.
Does it produce a lot of nuts?
It's a smaller tree but I am surprised at how many nuts it produced this year. Most went to the stupid red squirrel, but I was able to snag about 40 or so that I'm germinating. Guess is 100ish nuts per year for a 5 inch trunk.
Great video ! I love all the family 'team work' ! That is a beautiful wood cook stove in the back ground !
Another great video, Al ... I just love how your whole family is into homesteading. I'm sure it encourages others to "give it a whirl".
Oh my God I can't believe how big them beats are! That's AWESOME!
Good morning. Happy to see you all doing some canning. Different from the way I was taught how to so was interesting to watch. Have a blessed day and take care.
Al
Too funny
Lol
I thought that was Morgan
Awesome 👍🏻
I watch Morgan also 🤗👍🏻🙏

Al, is Sausage favoring her right hind leg? It appears she isn’t putting weight on it at 6:14 on this video. Hope the pigs are healthy and well.
Great update as always man. Have an amazing evening, Andreas 🇸🇪
I gave our pigs a whole lot of tomatoes and they sprouted in our pigs manure pile where I stored the dirty bedding out of their sty they grew really well all on their own I thought the fresh pig manure would be way to strong as it had not composted down at all it did latter and I used it a lot in my garden as compost we bedded our pigs in a comcrete sty on rice hulls which were very cheap the sty was on the proprerty already and were not our design but they had yards built off the covered sty’s and really did a good job of offering the pigs shade which was more useful here in Australia than keeping them out of any cold weather we ran electric fences off the small yards so they had free choice to go out and graze or stay in the shade of their pens

Thank you for sharing your day with us!. I'll be happy to follow Gold star farm too. Your a good man AL.
Nice one again Al and the Lumnah's! 👍😁
Yet another awesome video thank you for sharing your recipe and canning I really enjoyed it and ps your daughter is bloody adorable x
Hey Morgan how fun! Al, Tell me the secret to growing beets!! I honestly CAN NOT grow them 😢
We did have any luck this year. The beets were giving to us from a friend. I'll have to ask them. 😂
If you put a piece of raw ginger root in with the beers, they will keep the color better 😉😍😎
Do you add Howes Diesel Conditioner in cold weather. Its a great thing for diesel engines. You really get a lot done👍
Those beets will be good this winter!! Have a good day, Al
Hey Al , Gina and Olivia, what did you do with all your tomatoes?
I only saw you have BLTs that one day with your friends.

What happened to the gas can pump you used last winter? 💜🌞🌵

you get older.....it'll be a real blessing. And they are cheap at WallyWorld!! Gina's got the ginsu knife hands goin there!! LOL! Love NH!!!
Hi Al, I was wondering can we get the story on Twittle Dee and Twittle Dum? How did you get them did they just adopt you or where they purchased just curious?
Good job Olivia!
How long have you had electricity in the outdoor kitchen? 💜🌞🌵
I keep my cat’s food bowl in the back of a crate that sits on top of the dogs crate. That way the cats are naturally crate trained and I can keep the dog out of the cat food.
Does Sausage seem to be favoring her right/hind hoof? @6:12 or so.
Your title should have been crazy "productive" day! LOL Team work makes the dream work, awesome family.
LET THE RIVERS RUN... red from beats lol.. nice video. Have fun be safe, Shannan
Love pickled beetroot. An Aussie hamburger isn't complete without a slice. My mother has been making it since I was a child and it beats the commercial product hands-down. It's also good simply baked, as part of a baked dinner.
It’s like my property, every time I dig I harvest rocks!
Place is looking good
You grow the Best rocks.
Amen on leaving DC! (Good memories, but I don't ever want to move back!)
Those are the biggest beets I have ever seen! 😀
Enjoyed the video.
The old gentleman that I bought my elderberry bushes from told me the best way to make a tincture is to fill a quart jar with clean berries and add half a quart of vodka. Cover and let stand on a dark corner for 6 weeks. 1 teaspoon a day will keep you from all those winter colds that harass you. Prevent instead of treat! He suggested 1/2 in the am and 1/2 at evening.
Look up "No-Spill" gas cans. They are awesome for filling up equipment.
Our home grown beets are the best from root to leaves.
Great video!
I almost never notice things that are missing or odd but I did see two right hand gloves when fueling lol
Yup! Lol I thought the same thing when I went to put them on! Lol
ohh Could you please tell me the measurement of the brine that you made ,, EG,, 2 cups of sugar,, 3 cups of vinegar ,, Would love to know so i can try my beets,,, Thanks,, Great job Olivia you done well. I bet your friends would not get that close to the hot steam,,, Again great job,,
Your doing good with clearing the rocks and stumps on your property.
I've never turned my canning jars up side down, is there a secret for doing it?
just temp , it will be packed and turned upside
I love beets just cooked with butter on them.
Nice of Morgan to share. Whats wrong with sausages leg
Love me some pickled Beets! Oh and use the mini ex to dig holes for trees :)
excavator are great. haha
what I love is the RAW POWER they have. I'll bet the one you have with as much as it can lift pull shove dig and everything, probably has an engine that puts out less horsepower than my motorcycle. and that's pretty amazing.
and! when you consider all it can do, gets more work done than my truck on a smaller tank of fuel. 😎
Have you checked out Darwin's page, HoneyDo Carpenter? He has a recipe for making the most awesome firestarters, or you could just buy some ready made.
Thank you for sharing how you are clearing and prepping your homestead. I love that you are creating an orchard too! It was nice to meet Morgan and I am checking out his channel.
Love seeing your Beloveds, Gina and Olivia! Have a blessed day, Lumnah Acres!

I've never had beets, pickled or otherwise. Interesting how you turned the jars over. I don't think I've ever seen anyone do that Ever. Don't the lids need to the little suction "pop" thing to finish being airtight?
Great video as always. You sure did a LOT that day. Lol. You sounded so tired by the end. :)
That's awesome, Keandric!
6:15 Sausage has a painful right rear trotter.
Never seen canning jars turned upside down, don't the lids have to pop right side up? Enjoyed the video.

I've always just been told if you put your jars upside down you have a better rate of them ceiling. Not sure if it's true or not but we do it LOL
Ah. The joys of raising a free range cat! 🐱
nice fall foliage. We are getting cool weather now, down into the mid sixties. Thanks for sharing.
Gold Shaw Farm helping.
I love the vibes🌙Keep up the good content👌🏼
Rocks make for great walls.
The hills of New England are lined with rock walls built by farmers who stuck their shovels into the ground.
Right when you started fueling I was thinking I hate refueling my diesel tractor. Then you mentioned "messy job".
Those beets are huge!
i made a dozen jars of canned beets i got a 7 pound bag for 1.88 here at a local store one jar is eaten and a friend took a jar lol i dont think 10 will last me the winter it took me 3 days to do it and a week to recover but it was worth every back and leg and ankle pain i got lots of pain for lots of gain lol hugssssssssss from Ontario Canada
It is a labor of love! But so worth it!
yup amd being disabled dont stop me just slows me down a bit lol
NICE! Good, non-feral trees for food.
Is that diesel have the red dye in it? I thought that was just for farm vehicles and equipment.
Yes the fuel is off road fuel
