My parents taught us to never waste anything but it amazes me that I seem to be the only one to remember and use those lessons. Even if half of a potato is rotten, the other half can still be used.Then the bad part, chickens, pigs or the compost pile will benefit from it.
Lessons this girl has been learning over the past 15 years. Life is hard when you try to fit in to a society bigger than you. Thanks for being an inspiration. 💚🌞
Tessie, my brother and I began watching you over two years ago. We enjoyed watching and messaging each other about the fun and interesting things that our Tessie was getting into. About 7 weeks ago my brother went Home to Jesus and this is the first video I’ve been able to watch of yours since he left me. You are an extra comfort to me right now. A special bond that he and I had. Thank you for just being you.
Dates on cans and on most non-perishable food are just suggestions for alot of us. Lots of people in other countries are not as blessed as we are to have the options to get nourishing food. I love how you use almost everything you are able to find and not alot goes to waste. We have certainly learned alot from each other during these hard times.
I learned some of this from a former video of yours! I am a lead community health care worker and help my elderly community get food often. I was able to educate some ideas you gave me to my team to seasoned social workers to help our patients build their pantries! You are educating so many! I appreciate your wise info!
I really liked how you set up this video. It was very helpful. I'm looking at being super broke when I retire and you give me hope. Thankyou so much. You truely make a difference.
This video has so much information most everyone needs to know. I've got to do a little more research for myself to find another place that donates food because the church I was going to once a month has so many people now showing up they run out of food after I waited 2 hours and 15 minutes in the car line. It's getting almost unbearable waiting when your in so much pain but you have to do it because it's the only way now to have enough to get through to the next month. It's sad that so many of us did not ever think we should have been prepping years ago. I'm so glad I found you and have learned so much from you this year I will always be so grateful to you sweet Tessie. I will survive ! 👍💙
I am constantly amazed how many people would never even think to freeze something. If I buy more than a couple pieces meat, etc., the cashier or someone in line will say "You must be planning a big meal!" ... I then tell them I'll freeze most of this, and they look at me like that is the most amazing thing.
Tessie you are bringing the idea of “affordable food “ to people who may never have considered getting groceries from a food bank before…God is blessing you to help bless so many others during these very financially trying times- Thank you for all of your hard work & patience & kindness ❤
Tessie, your state is very lucky to have this program. We have commodities in our town, but they go by income. I do not know if we have a good bank, we do not even have a salvation army. You are truly blessed. Your pantry is simply amazing..I'm lucky to have six cans of anything in ours. You have taught me a lot and I thank you. ❤️
Wait a minute, is your lastname related to The Netherlands? I'm born and raised in the province of Groningen (Grunn in dialect) Someone who is from that province is a 'Grunninger'
@@Appalacia ah that was the other possibility. In the east from The Netherlands was back in the day part of the Holy Roman Empire, the province of Groningen was under rule by the bishop of Münster. It is where I life not uncommon to see Dutchies with a lastname that is related to German places, 'van Ems' or 'Hannover' for example :)
I am so thankful to you for all you have taught me about preserving food. I have two canners and a dehydrator. I use Mylar bags and glass jars and have a good pantry. Even bought a little freezer besides the one in my kitchen. And I eat out of them. You are a blessing Sister.
Tessie Love seeing you in your pantry. Enjoy seeing you at the food truck. So much food that people can sure, thank you for helping me and others with stretching our food.
Good Morning Tessie, Sisters, Brothers, and Friends :-) Wish you all a wonderful blessed Wednesday filled with Gods Joy and Happiness :-) Remember to pray for one another and for all around the world :-) God Bless You ! Love you all :-) Keep smiling be safe :-)
Hello my friend! This is a beautiful video Teresa! Ironically, today I baked some chocolate chip cookies from the food truck that I had stashed away in my pantry. As a test I baked them with the expiration date of nearly 2 years ago! They tasted delicious and are just fine! I enjoy being the wiser now and know that most packaged food is perfectly fine long past it's expiration date. Thank you so much for everything you have taught me and so many others. 💗
Tessie, this video is one of the best instructional ones you've ever done! it really shows your skill as a teacher. You know how to organize a certain amount of material that you want to communicate, then break it down into different "sub-headings" and present it step by step in understandable terms. That is a real gift! One of the hardest things sometimes is to figure out what people don't know (yet) as they're learning. When I'm trying to learn something, the biggest problem is that I "don't know what I don't know," if that makes sense! You are SO good at explaining things like how to use a search feature. This makes people with questions feel more competent in getting answers, and relieves you of the burden of answering the same questions over and over. And you do it without ever having a patronizing attitude to those of us who are learning. I have a friend who volunteers at a weekly pantry at a Methodist church about 12 miles from here. She says the demand for food is really skyrocketing. If we just went by what's presented on the media we would get a very false impression of what's going on today. So often the message is: "Everything is just fine!" While I believe in being optimistic, the truth of the matter is that everything isn't fine everywhere and programs like this are lifesavers. Bless you and your family, Tessie, for doing so much to help so many. 🙂
Thank you for such an informative video! Brought up by people who survived the Great Depression! Have never missed a meal ! Before we had a fridge we had one of those hessian box thing with the water running down the sides! My mum earned money for our first car crocheting bed jackets! We walked a mile to a phone box! Aussie Lady My parents were great gardeners!
Same here, but in the states. I heard countless stories on how my mother's family (which was 9 or 10) lived on potatoes (potato soup, fried potatoes, diced potatoes, mashed potatoes, etc. etc.), or potatoes with onions. So, my mother was a food "hoarder" - full freezer and full cupboards. In her younger days when I was little, she gardened and canned and we lived off of those foods during the cold winter months. So, back to these days, I'm a food "stocker" (not hoarder). I have an organized pantry in my basement and shop the pantry before shopping the stores for those items. I do have the luxury of having some freeze dried foods as well, so if something happens to me, my adult son still at home will have food for awhile to live off of. Anyway, long story - sorry. It's a totally different mindset to what many are used to in this minimalist society, despite having just gone through 2 Very hard years from a supply perspective and I feel it's going to get worse.
The food bank people know that if we take anything I let nothing go to waste I have offered to do classes cooking and preserving and no luck yet. To much food goes to waste it is so sad. Thank you for being the person that lets all of us know great video Tessie
I am so grateful you are in this world and have taken up video making. I really think people are going to need this more than ever before as the years progress. Thank you Tessie!
Tessie, I just love you so much for EVERYTHING you do for people! I don't live near you but I listen to all you say about helping your community because maybe I can help my own community with some of the knowledge you've shared. We don't have Blessings of Hope anywhere near. We don't have a lot of Amish who give discarded food because there aren't a lot of Amish farmers here. But there are food banks and churches who are always looking for volunteers. This world isn't getting easier and we all need to do what we can for our brothers and sisters and for ourselves. Thank you!
I know for a fact at q low point homeless I had to fist fight a bum for a dumpster pizza survival can be a tricky thing sometimes but there is no shame in asking or receiving help if you need it
I'm so happy to have learned from your videos how to preserve food that would have gone bad. It's like getting a raise! These times more than ever, this is valuable information!
I recently learned how to pickle vegetables. My local grocery stores do mark down the prices. I grab it, cut the vegetables into smaller pieces and pickle them. I now have 2 spice combinations I use for cooking - one is a common recipe and the other uses spices for Oriental meals. Makes quick, delicious meals.
You are so right in the need of teaching others to preserve food. When I was in school we had the opportunity to take home economics classes in the 80's. However, I opted to take computer related and business related classes instead as I could see needing that for my career. I wish that I had had time for both as I never learned to sew and didn't really learn to can. I know the basics of preserving from occasionally assisting my grandparents and from reading books but my knowlege is limited. My children have not been given the opportunity to learn to cook at school. I had to teach them about measurements and following recipes and how to substitute items if you are missing them. Most of my childrens friends are clueless how to follow recipes even as their patents don't cook from scratch. So at least they are ahead of the game. Anyway thanks for putting these videos on You Tube to teach others how to preserve food.😀
THANK YOU! Because of you I decided to go online to see what is available in my area of Iowa. I just signed up as a volunteer at River Bend Food Bank! I will be volunteering on Mondays 😁. I am praying I can feed their stomachs and their souls with the love of God!
We try not to waste food. Sometimes some of what we get we give to the ducks, geese and chickens. Sometimes we get meat that we can't eat before it starts to get freezer burn. We cook it up and give a warm meal to the stray cats outside. Especially in the winter. I have cut up vegetables that can be frozen so they don't go bad. I want to let you know, I sent you an email. I hope you got it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us 🙏.
I am so glad to see this video! I have been trying to find some food banks in my area and there just are not very many. It would be an hours drive in any direction to a food bank as we live in a small rural area. I love that you explain to people what to do with the produce to preserve it for later use, so many people just have no idea what to do with it. Thanks for sharing!
Tessie, This is awesome so nice to have a food bank like that it's good that everyone gets to have food I'll have to look for food banks near me :-) I check expiration dates on everything one thing I have some jars of chicken and turkey gravy a few years past there expiration date are these still good they are sealed :-) Love you my sister :-) God Bless You and Ken :-)
Please, Tessie. More of this. More about dealing with food preservation and handling expired foods. I am one of those who did not grow up being taught these things and only now am trying to learn. I have been following you since 2018 (I have since changed my name as I made that old screen name back in 2006 lol), but I kind of stopped watching around 2020 because life just got so crazy for us. Your videos started popping up in my suggested a few days ago and I am so grateful. You and I have some things in common, and I also live in a mobilhome with my husband. So I need to start going back and watching videos I missed about your routines with mobilehome living and food preservation. I also am on a journey with my health, I fight diabetes using intermittent fasting and keto/low carb to control the blood sugar spikes and insulin resistance. You're a treasure and I am so glad I found you again. I am staying this time. God bless you abundantly, sister.
I have learnt so much from you over the years Tessie and I feel so lucky to be able, not only to use these facilities the same as you, but here in the UK, ,,, and as you say how to store it and cook it to provide for my loved ones You teach well Thank you ❤
I’ve learned a lot from my mom and dad about not wasting any food using all that you can and preserving the rest but I’ve also learnt a lot from you so please keep teaching us we appreciate it a lot thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Traveling thru Lancaster County this summer, grapes were available at every stop on the back roads. When I asked where they can from this is the story we got. A ship was docked in Philadelphia and because new fresher grapess were coming in on another ship soon, these would be discarded. They were delicious! What a great idea!
My church has a Gleanors Food Truck come once a month. It is such a blessing for our small community. Unfortunately each month more and more people are using the truck which tells me more and more people are struggling. It is a real blessing for many. I always can and freeze and perserve anything I can. So many people don't know how to preseve food or even how to cook from raw ingredients. I love dehydrating. I totally understand about working through the food.
Thank you for bringing the awareness Tessie. I have heard a lot of areas have difficult times because they can't get enough helpers there's plenty of food they just can't get people to volunteer. I'm also heard in rural areas here in Minnesota it gets difficult for people not enough volunteers. Second hand Harvest, Manna Market, Grace Church in Fridley is once a month, Serenity Village is by appointment but it is a drive-thru, Hope Church in Blaine Minnesota does when every Thursday from 9:30 to 4:30. These are a few that I know and like you said of people go online it will give information and phone numbers. Here in Minnesota I'm sure if they call Secondhand Harvest they will give people numbers as well. I grew up with family that didn't waste food either and they were pretty frugal. I remember as a little girl one time eating an apple and I went to throw the core and my grandpa said there's good nutrition there and he ate it. And when you talked about expiration dates people need to listen to cuz you're right
Hi Tessie. Thank you for these videos. You are such a good steward of the blessings you receive. I agree that so much food is wasted. We try to not waste food in my home. Leftovers and freezing are good ways to minimize this. God bless you ❤️
My parents taught us to never waste anything but it amazes me that I seem to be the only one to remember and use those lessons. Even if half of a potato is rotten, the other half can still be used.Then the bad part, chickens, pigs or the compost pile will benefit from it.
I wouldn't mind seeing a "what I got at the food truck" video once a month. 🤔👍🚚🍞
Thank you so much yes I do have a video every month showing what I get and when I volunteer I have it in a playlist at the end of this video
Lessons this girl has been learning over the past 15 years. Life is hard when you try to fit in to a society bigger than you. Thanks for being an inspiration. 💚🌞
It’s so nice that there are places that do that for the ones who are struggling. Have a great evening everyone.

An extremely informative video Tessie thank you.
Thank you for all your helpful work and information to help others.

This is informative Tessie. A great service for others. Thank you. ♥️
I love the fact that the food is not being wasted, in your area.
So, so many would benefit from this!

Super helpful video, thankyou. I wish they did this here.

Thank you for dispelling the expiration date myth.
Goodness you are amazing girl. I so agree with you and admire you, Love from Canada
Thank you for bringing the awareness Tessie. I have heard a lot of areas have difficult times because they can't get enough helpers there's plenty of food they just can't get people to volunteer. I'm also heard in rural areas here in Minnesota it gets difficult for people not enough volunteers. Second hand Harvest, Manna Market, Grace Church in Fridley is once a month, Serenity Village is by appointment but it is a drive-thru, Hope Church in Blaine Minnesota does when every Thursday from 9:30 to 4:30. These are a few that I know and like you said of people go online it will give information and phone numbers. Here in Minnesota I'm sure if they call Secondhand Harvest they will give people numbers as well. I grew up with family that didn't waste food either and they were pretty frugal. I remember as a little girl one time eating an apple and I went to throw the core and my grandpa said there's good nutrition there and he ate it. And when you talked about expiration dates people need to listen to cuz you're right
This was a very good video to help people understand.
So awesome with the food truck. Great video
❤❤❤
Hi Tessie. Thank you for these videos. You are such a good steward of the blessings you receive.
I agree that so much food is wasted. We try to not waste food in my home. Leftovers and freezing are good ways to minimize this.
God bless you ❤️
