Welcome to our channel! We sold our new house and fully functioning homestead and moved to a 122-year-old farmhouse with raw land. Join us as we completely rebuild our homestead from scratch and become one step closer to self-sufficiency. When we're not at the homestead we are up at the off-grid cabin splitting firewood, tapping trees for syrup, hunting, and much more!
Come along on our journey to self-sufficiency and a more intentional way of living.
Live simple, need less. 🌱

A Day On The Homestead | Making Strawberry Jam
Welcome back! Today we went to a local farm and did "U pick" strawberries to make some jam for winter. We almost missed the season but managed to squeak in at the last minute and get enough berries to make 26 jam jars!
Canning season is well underway and this is just the beginning of putting up jars for winter. Follow the link below to grab a jar of strawberry jam and of course, an all-natural strawberry soap to go with it!
Stay tuned to see what else we're up to on the homestead this summer!
Thanks for watching and I'll see you on the next one!

Spring On A Homestead! New Gardens
มุมมอง 2.9K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
Spring is one of the busiest times of the year, especially since moving to a new property before winter. Today I have to cut in all my new gardens for the season and start putting up t-posts so that Annie can rotationally graze. The weather did not cooperate today, it was incredibly windy and very rainy! But, the work needed to get done regardless of what the weather had to say about it. Stay t...

Maple Syrup & Firewood at the Off-Grid Cabin

We're only a few days away from spring and that means it's almost time to wrap up syrup season. We are on our second boil of the year and ended up with an additional 14L to add to the 20.5 L we got from the first boil. We have optimal sap weather for the next 10 days and we're hoping for enough sap to do another 20L of syrup, which would bring our grand total to 50L. Today we decided to take ad...

We are only mid-season so we still have our taps out and are hoping for a second boil in the next few weeks. At the ...

Looks great beautiful
@@debbiemarks6086 thanks!😊
I love Strawberry season. Lots of Amish stands all over and they all sell them. There are some u-pick spots too. I have massive Blackberry patches on my hunting property. Great big juicy and sweet berries.
@@GaryMinckler lucky you! Blackberries would be great!
Very nice cabin, well pourched for wood storage. It would up the cabin if it had a ecco masonry stove. More safe and less wood use!
Great video!! Homemade strawberry jam is the best. My personal preference is is strawberry freezer jam made using Sure Gel Less Sugar recipe. To me it tastes so much more like fresh berries. Check it out.. if you have freezer space is could save you some time and I prefer the taste.
@@pfitz4881 I’ll have to give that a try!
Looks delicious. How much sugar did you add per batch?
I believe the recipe calls for 6 cups but you can add a little less!
Love strawberry 🍓🍓🍓
Great video ! Thanks for the IG name. I’d looked before but couldn’t find anything for some reason. Following now. Take care
@@TonyGeneseo glad you found it! 😀
Evenin folks!! 🖐😎👍
Great video, nice to get the kids involved. I am sure they did not sneak any while picking😂
@@SamHill-pc7cg thanks! 😀
Oh yes, I’m sure they didn’t 😋

Nothing taste better than homemade, thanks for the video Yall
@@Doogie_Causey it’s very tasty! 🍓
Looks great!
@@PurpleCollarLife thanks! 🙂
You are one tough woman! I'm very impressed with your setup.
can taro be grown in your area, can you please tell!
Süper video olmuş. ❤😂
Wow your garden is doing so great and I so wished I lived closer for sure!!
Very nice. Thank you for the tour.
Your is looking pretty good for newly tilled soil :) Yes the weeds grow faster than anything, I use cardboard in my planters & other places, it don't stop the all but if you have good heavy stuff it stops most of the weeds 👍Busy lady a lot on the go at the homestead i hope you have an awesome harvest !
@@littlegriffoffgridalberta6837 thanks! 😃
When you make stock, do you freeze it once in a jar? I do to be on the safe side. I am never confident in my canning. That is why I stopped making my own pickles etc..
@@TomandMaryWhittaker-e8q i pressure can it and put it on the shelf !
@@living.different that would be a great video to watch how you do it.
@@TomandMaryWhittaker-e8q there is one posted!
@@living.different I will look for it. Thanks.
@@living.different Found it. Thank you.
It looks like your cabin is in the Bancroft area?
How many acres is your new property?
@@TomandMaryWhittaker-e8q 6 acres!
The garden is beautiful you have a nice variety. Did you put in some herbs?
@@williammeek7218 yes! A whole garden bed just for herbs 🌿
I make bbq with the juice from cowboy candy
@@kellymueller9818 that’s such a great idea!
Thanks for the video!
Nobody likes dillweeds😂 I enjoy the hard work ya put into the garden, I knew it would do well since you work it barefoot (old wives tale) 3:55 you got serious lol Did the beans come out of it and was it slugs? Hope ya video the cardboard and mulching for us. Another good video and hope y’all have a great weekend!
@@2fish_tacos814 dill weed is good for making pickles but that’s about it haha. Yes sandals off in the garden. It looks like whatever was on my beans has left because they’re growing nicely !
@@living.different Glad the beans are coming along good. Picked my first corn yesterday and it was so good! You need a sign…no shoes allowed in the garden lol. Nice to hear from ya and again….have a nice weekend!
hot pants,hot lady.nice
Good morning Holly. Awesome video ! I’m diabetic,do you have a sugar free raspberry jam….. If so ,can I buy it off your website?
@@1400craigger hi there , I don’t have sugar free jam unfortunately right now!
how much acres is your homestead!
@@the_eternal8928 it’s 6!
Another cool tour. Thanks! Love Dilly Beans. Wish I could get some of that Garlic butter. I dont see that at the local farmers markets. Im already planning on expanding my garden next year.
@@GaryMinckler I love dilly beans too! That’s cool about your garden, good for you!
Looks like the fire ban should be a thing of the past.
thats a really nice garden you put a lot of care into it you can tell
@@scottanderson2980 thanks! 🙂
you guys are such bad parents letting your kids have fun whats this world comming to lol
6:36 what are the larger, swaying trees in the background?
Just bought a house in your area. Closes on Monday. Maybe will stop someday to shop at your roadside stand! Looks like wonderful stuff.
@@simonlawson2772 that’s great, good for you!

@@paulfrizzell31 thank you!
As always love what you’re doing ! First question : raised this way or self taught determination to live this way and be self sufficient ? Take care
@@TonyGeneseo definitely was not raised this way; I just kind of learned along the way!
Looks like everything is growing well 🖐😎👍
So far it is! 🤞
Awesome clip--I knew you were going to have a great garden and I was right !! I'm surprised about the carrots tho--hope they come along now. Keep the clips coming--love em lots..................m
Hopefully the carrots come up! Even if just a few 🥕 glad you’re enjoying the videos!
@@living.different I'll be watching for them !!
the problem i have is peoples house cats because the have a to do list and that is every day they like to pee and poop in my carrots and parsnip beds, they tear the beds to pieces
Oh no! They go in your gardens? That’s terrible!
Go to Home Depot,Lowe's, get two bags play sand, make a couple piles outside of garden, it give them a alternate place to go, occasionally clean it, wash it too, they will use it.
Love your videos! Does anyone else have trouble with your videos buffering? I have Starlink and for some reason your videos are having trouble streaming.
Glad you’re enjoying them! That’s unfortunate they’re buffering for you.. I have Starlink at home and have no issues . I wonder what’s going on!
Beautiful Garden
Thanks!
