      I wouldn't even know where to start... on social benefits because of my whole body and energy fields that went burn-out years ago and still recovering. But I know that healthy food is my main health ingredient... So starting small with my own little city garden (I live in the city in the middle of crowded The Netherlands), in a rental home.

    My daddy was born in 1910. He was 19 years old when the Great Depression hit. He lived on a farm where the whole family worked the land. He told me, "We never knew there was a 'Great Depression' ".

      Mom told me grandpa had a choice of payment during the depression, a quarter a week or a bushel of corn. He would alternate weekly. Grandma was amazing, she would make quilts out of flour sacks, old pajamas, old curtains or any other cloth. I remember she collected strings of all kinds. I asked her why and she smiled and said " A girl never knows when she may need a piece of string". I sure miss my family and our lost ways. It was a different world for sure

      @@rso823 What's wrong with telling children that they are more fortunate than others? Better to know and be taught at an early age that not everyone is privileged to have a roof over their heads or food at the table every meal time, so they can appreciate what they have. A grateful spirit is good.
      "The more perfect you perceive them, the more pressure they put on themselves." Perception is a personal experience. We have no control over other people's perceptions so why go on about people's perceptions about other people? LoL. It's not people's perceptions per se that affects other people, but their actions.
      I do agree that it is a problem when people worry too much about what other people think of them, but they are the ones putting that pressure on themselves--unless those people have a direct influence/effect on their life. But you speak as if other people are responsible because of their own perceptions lol.
      I agree with the "incoherence" comment.

    I was born in Asia in 1985. I find it amazing that even though you are in the United States and I am in China, we have the same way of making tomato sauce. When I was a child, there was no tomato sauce in the supermarkets in northern China where I lived, so we usually made our own. The process we used was the same as the blogger's. It's incredible how human wisdom transcends borders and cultures.❤️Wishing you a happy life🌹

    You know, in rural România , we preserve fresh vegetables and fruits every autumn ...it feels kind of weird to think that in America this is not normal... every household plants vegetatables and in the autumn we preserve them. We eat from them every winter and last sometimes a up to a year. We grow even our own condiments (thyme, bay leaves...) and greens for teas and such.... you can't compare the taste to the supermarket food. I personally buy so little from the supermarket. We have hens so we don't eat eggs from the supermarket, some neighbours have cown so we buy milk from them... it's pretty cool actually 😁 anyway, lovely video, i really enjoyed it!

      At least here in Germany food in the supermarkets is comparably cheap: preserving makes little sence from a economical point of view.
      But growing your own vegetables especially under the Romanian sun will bring you so much more tasteful produce ... than some unriped picked tomato in a Dutch glass house. To have this fresh taste of summer and preserve it would be rather a motivation for me.

    Canning and preserving has been passed down in my family from my great grandparents. My mom taught me, and I have been doing it as well to teach my children. I have felt a strong need to preserve more, and become even more self-sufficient as it’s become a greater realization how reliant we are on stores to get our food. Being able to grow my own food and preserve it is a huge goal of mine.

      I once had a volleyball teammate. She unfortunally had had sick parents. They lived of wellfare for the longest of time. She told me she never ate fresh green beans, the long onces. I almost could not believe that. Because we always prepped them and ate them fresh in abundance. She told me her parents did buy jars so nothing would go to waiste. Of course that was smart of her parents seen their sercumstances. But It shows it's not normal for a lot of people anymore to eat fresh vegetables. We almost forget how prepping is done.

    My dear. Hat's off to you! We also have a 4.6 acre homestead on our art studio property with 9,600 SF of veggie gardens. Our little farm is extremely well organized to maximize production. Anything planted on our property as a tree, shrub, or plant is edible. We preserve about 95% of our foods, and as pescetarians we occasionally eat fish that we can catch off of our houseboat (yacht,) and raise "The Girls" for our eggs at the farm.
    I'm 63 and my significant other, a carpenter and gardener is 57. This lifestyle looks glamorous to many people, however they must be willing to work long days, often 12+ hours DAILY. I took an early retirement this year to focus fully on our homestead and work a little less! Enjoy your family's "special" time together and may The Holy Father send his angels to keep you safe, healthy, and joyous; always.

    Just touches my heart how much dedication and love this mother puts into making sure her family eats. So many women today give up so easily and want to take the easy route and they lose sight of all the good it comes of it and all of the rewards from the hard work. Nothing is ever easy but sometimes the hard stuff refines you like a fine blade that has been worked through the fire.

    You are spot on with your concept of linking good health to preparing food from scratch. . When I was around 50 I was told that my blood numbers were so off the chart that I would probably not live another 5 years. My triglyceride level was so high it could no longer be measured. My A1c listed me as having type 2 diabetes. I was overweight and my blood pressure was too high. Instead of attempting to deal with the issues through medications, I decided to dramatically change the food I was eating. This meant that I would have to learn how to cook it myself. Unlike your situation I had less kitchen floor space and counter space. Also, I did not have a crew of kitchen helpers. Your video demonstrates the labor intensive effort involved in preparing food from raw ingredients. I call it prep work or sous chef work. My solution was to redesign our kitchen around preparing quality meals, Instead of having kitchen helpers, counter space, and floor space, I filled my kitchen with industrial equipment. The equipment takes care of the prep work necessary to prepare high quality meals from raw ingredients. The result of my efforts is, now that I am 74 years old, both my wife's health and my health is much better than it was when I was in my 50s. My weight, blood pressure, A1c, triglyceride and cholesterol levels are all within normal parameters.
    This is my kitchen. It allows us to cook fine restaurant quality and healthy meals at home. The equipment allows the process to be time and cost effective.

    Those late nights and tired legs always pay off to see your hard work build your family and supply your family with enough food for a year! Keep up the great work!

    I’ve watched this before but decided to rewatch for motivation for this season. Laughed so hard with you guys wearing your googles! I don’t know how I missed it the first time. What a great trick and I’m going to try it this year!

    A labour of love ! I really admire you for teaching your children at such a young age to eat real organic food for a long and healthy life.
    You have inspired me, going to start as soon as I can. New subscriber here just wish , that I found your channel sooner.

    I felt so ispired with all the preserving and work you put into. I might try somethings, but I live in Ecuador, I have fresh produce all year round. We are mega blessed!
    Amazing work you do for the family!

    A lot of hard work, and thank you for recording it. Preserving foods is a lost art and critical for someone like me who likes to spend months off grid. Really appreciate these. Kind regards to you all and best wishes.
