    As a VERY old gardener, can I give you a tip about your ginger? If you want a continuous supply of fresh ginger, I would suggest you plant a couple of pieces of ginger in the center of a decorative pot (such as you might use around your patio!), then plant colorful annuals around them. Depending on how much fresh ginger you use during a year, you might want to plant more than one such pots. (I suggest you plant more than you think you'll need, because the first year you'll have slim pickings on those tubers...) They will grow all summer, and as you now know, they grow vertical foliage, which looks really nice in the center of an ornamental pot. At the end of the summer, stop watering those pots, pull out the annuals, cut the stalks off the ginger, and move the "empty" pots into your basement area; the ginger goes dormant for the Winter. If you need fresh ginger for a recipe at any time of year, go out with a spoon or something, dig up what you need, and leave the rest in the pot. The first year you will probably have to be careful not to use too much of the ginger roots, but by the end of the second year, you should have plenty to use.

    Oh heaven's yes! Becky has become my rock! She inspires every day!
    Long story short, two years ago I almost died from near organ failure. Despite the "Plan your funeral" mindset of my doctors, I decided to fight.
    Didn't know how I would but I was going into battle.
    Acre homestead was the first channel I came across and it gave me the encouragement, the joy and the strength to embark on a new chapter of my life.
    Now? I'm completely healthy, happy, strong and motivated. I have two huge gardens, I preserve food at least two days a week, cook from scratch, garden everyday and am now going to be starting my own channel soon!
    Thank you Becky.
    You change people's lives in so many wonderful ways!

    Anise hyssop is a wonderful herb! Not only does it attract pollinators (which would make having it worthy all by itself), but you can make a lovely tea from it (can help support digestion, congestion or lift mood) and eat the flowers and leaves raw added to a salad. I pop them in my mouth in the garden. The leaves have been used as a poultice for burns, also. And this plant friend has been found to have antioxidant and antimicrobial value. And you can use the flowers, leaves and seeds in baking. Anise hyssop enjoys a long and interesting use traditionally, including by indigenous peoples, and continues to be grown and worked with by herbalists, gardeners and cooks. Hope this helps! And how wonderful to get your parents' help. So heartwarming to watch you all working in the garden together. And my husband liked the step on your dad's truck when I showed him. We use a step stool but this would work so much better. :-) Great late harvest you got there, including the ginger and turmeric! Thanks for sharing!

      Hi Becky, I scrolled through to make sure I could consolidate with the other Anise info. Thanks for posting this info Ctviera! This is my family's favorite cookie using the Anise seed: 3 Cups sifted flour, 1 tsp cream of tartar, 1 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 1/4 Cup sugar, 2 Tbsp Anise Seeds, 1/2 cup shortening, 2 well beaten eggs. and if you have it, 1 tsp or less Anise seed oil. Blend the shortening and the sugar, add the eggs, mix dry ingredients and add to the moist. mix it up to form a ball. Cover the ball with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. After chilled, form small 1-inch balls and place on parchment paper on cookie sheet. bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes, watch closely, you want just a slight gold around the edges not burnt. cool and enjoy. Thanks for sharing your wonderful parents with us, they were absolute joy to watch!

    Becky, I have to tell you that you've been a true blessing to me the past several months! I had lost so much interest in "living life", until I subscribed to your channel. Now I have my desire to live and garden, and cook, and clean. My husband can hardly believe the difference in my personality, and desire to live my best life. And watching you with your parents is so beautiful! I miss my parents desperately at times. But this helps ease the pain of not having them with me anymore. And be sure and tell your mom and dad that they're precious! Love it when they're helping you harvest the veggies! God Bless you all! Much love from Louisiana!🥰

    Hi all! Quick suggestion for your mom. If you struggle with rodents in your garden plant mint in pots throughout the garden. Rodents hate the smell and it will keep them out! Be sure to use pots though because the mint will take over!

    It cracks me up any time anyone moves after being in one place more than a year. Everyone always says, "Oh I had more stuff than I thought I did!" It is also a delight to hear you exclaiming over the harvests of potatoes, tumeric, and ginger. Always thankful for a harvest of any size. 🥰

  • @freeinJesus
    @freeinJesus ปีที่แล้ว +8

    That plant is Anise Hyssop, which is different from Anise. It is in the mint family and good for cough and cold symptoms, as well as antibacterial for treating wounds in a salve. You can also use it as a companion plant for cabbage to deter cabbage moth and flea beetles.

    Becky, thank you for sharing your mom with me. I know if my mom were still alive we'd be watching you together or chatting about what you do each week as a highlighted conversation. I'd give anything to harvest with my mom one more time and clean up the garden. She was always such a big help and dropped so much knowledge during these times. It so nice to watch you create this memory building time with your loving family.

Such a blessing and joy to have them in your life! Cherish every moment with them that you can! I lost both mine, when still in my 20s and I miss them dearly! I’m so thankful God gave me to a learned mama, who left me with all her knowledge of canning and preserving.

    Weve been blessed with all these amazing videos. I know its probably very stressful for you going back and forth trying to juggle day life, pregnancy, preserving, jarring cooking and harvesting and moving things back and forth between the houses. Am incredibly amazed you have managed to film so much but I've been absolutely loving the videos the now. I've been watching you for about 6 months and I think this may be my first time commenting but your my favourite channel now by far. I personally dont eat meat but I love every aspect of your channel. ❤ I adore watching your garden grow from seed to harvest 🌱 it's not somthing I am able to do myself atm but I've been more and more wanting to start even with just somthing small like strawberries to try. Thank you for all your amazing hard work and effort. And for being able to film it all. Remeber some self care TLC as you always seem so 100% its amazing to watch but idk how you havent burnt out by now. Harvest season seems so beautiful to be blessed with such produce but seems like it would be highly stressful too and a house move on top of it all. Thank you for your unbelievably amazing effort and for taking us along for the experience ❤

    Becky, harvest that anise seed!! I've done research on both Star Anise and Anise seed - both have medicinal properties, but the Anise seed is actually better. It doesn't have as strong a licorice flavor or scent as the Star Anise (the plants are totally different & originate from different countries) but it has a better "antibiotic" property than the Star Anise. I have used both - I have made tea with both. If you love licorice, then get the Star Anise for tea, but for medicinal properties go with the Anise seed. I didn't grow mine, I bought an organic co-op seed, but have been completely amazed at how well it works. I had a severe tooth ache and started on the tea and almost over night was feeling better. The nice thing about the Anise seed vs. the Star Anise is that the licorice flavor/scent is much more subtle so making it into a tea blend is perfect! Hope this info helps you and others!

    Oh Becky, mom and dad. I don't think you have any idea the place you hold in so many people's lives and hearts! I adore snuggling up to watch your videos and see what you're getting up to, you bring me calm and joy when I feel like I have none, and you have helped me appreciate the small yet beautiful few tomatoes my husband and I haphazardly grew for the first time this year.
    I have been struggling hugely with my mental health the last few years and I enjoy nothing more than to appreciate you and your family's incredible outlook on life. I'm not sure what I'll do when you're busy with your beautiful baby and can't upload as much, but I am so happy for you all! ❤️

    Becky, it's the perfect time of year for your cilantro. They really struggle in the heat. I'm getting ready to plant some myself, so I can have them all winter long. I live in Southern California and we don't get below the 20s here. It took me a few failures to figure out to plant them in the fall through early spring.
    Your garden is gorgeous!

    Hi Becky. My 4 year old grandson asked me to watch you moving the chickens again today after I picked him up from preschool. He watches all your videos with me. He plays with his farm and animals while we watch!

    I love when your parents are in your blogs. They are both so sweet, and your dad reminds me of my dad. He passed away last summer, but would help me any time with any thing. And always with a sense of humor.

    My husband and my 72 yo mom both know exactly what I mean when I say I am going on a Becky break meaning I am just gonna relax and watch you for 45 min ish. You don’t understand how much you inspired me. I bought a lakeside homestead since I first saw your first video circa 2020. You (and your parents) are a national treasure!

    Anise is wonderful in cookies, especially Springerle(America's Test Kitchen has a wonderful recipe) and in sugar cookies. A little goes a long way. I am going to miss your garden harvests this winter! I am no longer able to garden, so I live vicariously through your harvests and storage methods. You are so knowledgeable about so many things; I keep learning new stuff! I had no idea how turmeric grows and am surprised you could grow so much ginger. So nice to see your parents again!

    Hi Becky. Turmeric leaves are edible, over here in South East Asia it's used fresh, finely shredded, like a herb. It's a main ingredient in our wonderful 'rendang' (a curry-like dish) and makes them so fragrant. Maybe you could try using it in other curries too:)

    I don't know, but I think you may be becoming a "too real friend," folks are going to think I'm getting a little strange! Oh well, let 'em, that's the way I think of you, my friend Becky! Thank you so much for letting me join you and your Mom, Dad, and Josh on your latest garden adventure. I'm always excited to see what "treasure" your Dad is going to find. Love and a hug!
