Greetings! I'm Cathy, a woman prepsteading in Minnesota.
It can be challenging, but I grow and preserve what I am able to with limited space, time, and resources, and DIY a lot of projects. I cook, eat, and preserve a mostly paleo diet.
Through all of this, there is hope-that you can live a more self-reliant lifestyle in your later years, that prepping isn't just about rice and beans, and that you are capable of so much more than you think!
Music is also a large part of my life. Praise and worship is my genre-not only is it my heart, but it has been a spiritual staple for me as a single mom. It sustains me through challenging times…even homesteading. To separate that out or put music in a different box (or channel) is just not possible for me. Stay tuned for music videos!
Please join me, encourage me, and hope with me. (Isaiah 40:31)

Yes, it's been a long time since I've posted a video. I filmed this one in late August but thought you'd still like to see it. Seeing as we're getting snow next week, I figured it was about time to post! Enjoy!

those tomatos looked incredible
Thank you! It was a good year.
I'd like to start my chili with vegetable juice
Oh that sounds good 😌
Great job and great video! If only my wife could do half of that! She went to Wendy's tonight.
😂 well thank you.
Exactly what I was looking for ! Thx!
Thanks!
I like your style. Im glad I found your channel. So much great content. Thank you
Thank you so much!! Enjoy!
Cathy, is this cd still available? My mom would love it.
Yes it is! Email me and we’ll figure out the shipping.
So beautiful, we miss you. Hugs. 🫂 ❤
Thank you! Miss you all too,
oh what a beautiful garden. The squash garden looks amazing, along with the squash varieties. I was sooooo giddy when I saw your video pop up. Wonderful job on the video.
🥰 thanks! Glad you found so much enjoyment from it.
I was too. She is so missed by us..
What a nice surprise. Your garden looks great! Tis The Season Of Gratitude, and I trust you have many blessings to count this year. Happy Thanksgiving, Joy
Thank you so much! Blessings to you, too!
oh, I love the new garden! things always look so nice there with the raised beds. Hope you're well Cathy!
Thanks so much! It was wonderful to have extra space. I’m doing well, as I hope you are.
Your garden looked lovely. It was a nice surprise seeing it. Think of you often. You are missed. ❤
Thank you ☺️. Miss you too.
OMGosh!!! ❤. The garden is beautiful and you’ve been busy! Great therapy for sure!
Was a fun summer for growing-cooler and more rain!
Great to hear from you ❤
Thanks!!
Woke up this morning and mine was covered with snow
Yikes! I know it coming soon for me! I'm not done prepping for winter yet.
Beautiful! Miss you
Beautiful! Miss you
Thanks! Miss you, too :)
Beautiful!!
Thanks, sweetie!
Lovely Cathy . Well done and you are missed . Peace
Thank you!!
Hi there how are you?
Doing well, thanks. Busy....!
Cathy that is amazing. I have never heard of many of these varieties, let alone how to put them up for winter. The garden and squash beds are simply incredible.@@northstarprepsteader
I learned how to make potato flakes, AND I learned how to use the jar attachment to my Food Saver! I’m 72-never too old to learn new stuff! Thanks!
That’s awesome! You are right, it’s never too late to learn.
Just what I was looking for! Thanks. 😊
Wonderful! Glad I was able to help you.
It's likely that the pot you're using was a double boiler insert, as I have one just like it. Thus, no handles! That pot would be set inside a slightly larger one for melting chocolate squares, etc.
👍
I always freeze the liquids left after boiling vegetables and use them later for soups and gravies. The vitamins from the veggies are in that water, so it's a shame to dump them out. You can turn them into vegetable broth and add a bouillon cube to them for extra flavor.
Great idea!
Thank you so much! I have never canned. Getting ready to this Friday. You make it so easy!
You’re welcome! It is a great adventure and I’m glad you’re starting it.
Excellent video!
Thank you!
How do you keep them months ?
Clean them well with a cloth but not a scrubber. Put in gallon ziplock bags in the fridge crisper. Make sure there’s some moisture in the bag.
Those plants are too green to mulch!
Not in Minnesota when winter has already arrived.
That’s exactly why I do what you are doing cracking the eggs also the reason why I never buy brown eggs. They are notorious for this. You can throw three away out of twelve.
Good to know!
Thank you soooooo much. Ive got three big beds and was wondering how much to cut them back....or down. Also when to put the straw over them. Once again thanks bunches. Ray from Ohio
You are so welcome! I’ll be tending to mine this week too 😊
I am a new subscriber, thank you for the video
You’re welcome! Thanks for subscribing!
how long will it expire?
It should last about 5 years
Thank You !! now I know what to do with my 1st strawberry patch in Ohio
Wonderful!
😂😂😂 I love it, my mom had a pot, that size, with no handle! Used to ask her, many times, why do you use it? Her reply was I like it! Now that she's passed away, I'm using the same pot!!😂❤
That’s awesome!
You are using the pot for the same reason your mom did. What better reason to use something than because you like it.
So if you'de stuck to regular start intervals it might have worked?
Yes. At those temps, starting and letting it run every 4 hours makes a huge difference. It also needs to run for at least 20 minutes to recharge the battery (gets low from the cold) and get the engine oil back to normal thinness.
Do you put salt and lemon in the jars too?
I did season the juice, but because I pressure canned the jars, I did not have to add lemon.
or, just use a few nails to accomplish the exact same thing.
Nails could not only rip the netting, but be a hazard for injury. This system works really well.
@@northstarprepsteader I've used nails for this purpose for decades. They work just fine. You can also use 3M Command hooks mounted upside-down. Many ways to skin this cat. Just offering an alternative that isn't so labor intensive.
You made a giant Pringle potato chip!👍
Lol
Sometimes I will just eathe flowers, they are very delicious
Interesting!!!
What was the eighth veggie.
Tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, garlic, carrots, celery, parsley, basil
What do you use these on
Pasta, eggs, chicken, fish and more
It can be used for French fries 🍟 or fried chicken 🍗
Thanks for the video! I haven't grown green beans in 20+ years. My cowpeas/purple hull black eyes are doing great even though didnt use innoculant. But my organic Tendergreen bush beans did ok, but where rather pale green, then got leaf spot😢. I wonder if using anti bacterial dish soap mixture would work? Not from Rare Seeds. Guess pig gets some greens for lunch. I wonder if watering them everyday is too much in Florida summer.
Might be too much water, hard to say.
Thank you for showing how to care for the plants. Good video.
My pleasure
Suggestion for adding a raised bed in a lawn area. I’ve done the following many times with great results. After determining where I’m going to put the raised bed, I dig the area where the bed edges will be only to make the bed level. I then put down a couple layers of carboard with all plastic materials removed. I then fill the bed with the soil median and plant as desired. I seldom till soil as it won’t get rid of seeds. But the carboard will smother out existing plants and prevent seeds from germinating until the carboard rots away and by that time, your generally in good shape.
Great tip!
Where is the recipe? I can't seem to find it.
It’s in the notes/description below the video.
I am looking forward to making this when my garden come to an end of production for the summer.
Such a great way to use up the rest of your tomatoes. I just gave 4 quarts to my sister and she loves it!
Fantastic video! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you very much!
I make my tea from the whole plant, only cut the dirty root off
Awesome!
We feel your pain in Colorado as well. So many, never ending Elm seeds and buckets of hail. It's an evil never ending cycle, lol.
Agreed!!
Thanks for sharing,
You’re welcome!
