Big Announcement!! We are moving!
God is relocating us. We felt a move was coming for a while, but the location has caught us by surprise and left us in disbelief over God's goodness. This change happened fast and will move fast as we look to fully relocate by the end of October.
The vision is the same, the co-labour with God's creation and mentor people to do the same. God's presence is found in the present. We hope to do even more videos as we expand our ten pegs to larger territory both physically and spiritually!

Prepping and God's Economy
มุมมอง 74ปีที่แล้ว
Our thoughts on what prepping is, that it's a lifestyle that moves with the ebb and flow of God's economy, whether that be highs of the harvest, or lows of the winter. To be prepped is to BE the skill set that can adapt to environments and learn to survive and thrive.
Spring Update - Meat Birds, Gardening and Egg Incubation
มุมมอง 244ปีที่แล้ว
The spring is when things get busy. We have 50 meat birds, 7 turkeys, 12 new heritage chicks to add to our laying flock, and we are incubating eggs on the side. We are changing our garden set up and building a new enclosure for the meat birds to grown into!
I Failed at Homesteading
มุมมอง 187ปีที่แล้ว
Failure is hard... And not something we like to talk about. The spring hasn't even started and I already feel like I'm failing the season. However, homesteading is about overcoming the hard, so talk it out, talk yourself up and start again.

Fermenting Citrus - Long Term Storage
มุมมอง 54ปีที่แล้ว
We struggled with a good way to long term store citrus. We tried dehydrating, but weren't a big fan of the turn out. Fermenting has changed the game for sure! I fermented this back in the summer and we are still using fresh citrus in baking and cooking 9 months later!
Squash Gnocchi
มุมมอง 2.2Kปีที่แล้ว
Not sure what to make with all the squash your garden produced? Try making pasta with it!! Squash pasta is super easy and super tasty! It can also be frozen in vacuum sealed bags for longer storage. This is the recipe I used - It calls for butternut squash, but any harder variety of squash will work great, so long as you cook or drain the moisture out of the puree. beyondsweetandsavory.com/butt...

    Sounds like she's new to hatching eggs, at this point. So many are quick to be a bit harsh in their responses. We all go through a learning process so being more of a helpful person responding would be much better use for us all.

    You did all wrong! Why not read and looking video about it before? I have the same incubator and have goods results You need to put hygrometer and thermometer on the machine and keep the styrofoam on the buttom and the top to keep all stable. You have to keep your humidity around 35/40% personaly i dont have to add water on the 18 first day...depend of the humidity of your room. Please read about it Poor little thing!

    Once they get to this point I cut the top of the main stem where its starting to flower. This makes it start to push flower buds up between each leaf. The little green florets make a fantastic broccoli substitute, and will continue to produce heavily for a few weeks. I keep the plants from grtting too tall by trimming the top off. Ow and then, which turns it into a pakchoi bush with loads of florets.

    was excited to see this video. I have been wanting to dry chickpeas and didn't know how. Unfortunately, even though your ideas sounded good there were no measurements or specifics on how the rest of us can do this so I'm still looking for someone who can do a how-to video with better info. Very disappointed. Such potential here if there were only recipes.

    I just retired from working twenty years with special needs teens in my large local high schools. When I have a hard day I think back to a freshman girl named Elizabeth who had MS and was in a wheelchair. She could not speak and her face was frozen where she could not even smile. We ate lunch everyday with another wheelchair girl Kathy. Both girls could not even feed themselves and mean girls use to stare at them. It was horrible for them. BUT, I thought of a solution. I use to bring tons of cookies everyday and put chairs all around them. The kids use to fight to sit with us. It turned a bad situation into a fun lunchtime party everyday. My point is: You never know what test God is going to give you, do the best you can. Think of others who have it harder. Think of others before yourself and your troubles won’t seem too big. Count your blessing everyday.✝️💕

    Quit wasting time and money on "Fluff" breed chickens. Meat birds ..... Cornish Cross/8 Weeks "Rangers"/12 weeks Bresse/16 Weeks The "Math" does not square otherwise. Go for purpose bred egg layers like Leghorns or ISA Browns. Egg production is front-loaded and they eat less feed. If you want multipurpose your options are RIRs, Austrolorps, and Barred Rocks, and Delawares if you can find them.

      All our meat birds are Cornish cross. We prefer the heritage breed for our flock. We did a lot of research on the different types of chickens out there. We're not super concerned about excessive egg production. We would rather chickens at have better heritage and we like the different breeds specifically

    Sadly, those are china incubators and there are about 10 different names all for the same clone. I had one of the clones and had a hatch rate of exactly zero. They just can't hold in the heat. I sent it back and just spent the money on a Nurtureright 360 like I should have in the first place. My first hatch with mailed eggs in the 360 was 60%. I'm on track for a 91% hatch (11 of 12) since one quit before day 7. Also; lockdown means don't open the incubator. A pipped egg can shrinkwrap without warning and the chick could die.

      Thanks for the feedback! The first time doing something is bound to have errors. It's always vulnerable to share the learning experience. I'm about to post a video to launch later this week which will show our current solution to insulating the incubator. Our second round of hatching produced four eggs - Eggs from our own flock, so I'm happy with that! I'm hoping for 5-6 hatches on our third batch.
