Was waiting for this all week, thanks for taking us along with your challenge! You guys have inspired my family and I to forage for pecans and we made a pie ❤
That’s so awesome, pecan pie is the best! We only foraged a few cups of pecans this year so we’re gonna use them for a pie to bring to thanksgiving dinner 🙂
I think I finally understand what is it about your content that I love. The education and the peacefulness of it was the initial attraction but what I truly love is your commitment to your way of life, how tou honor your cultures and values. It is easy to see how you are just as committed to each other. Thank you for sharing with us
You are so lucky with a sweet man who can cook amazing and delicious! I can tell he loves you very much with the way he prepares a beautiful dish for you,made with love.♡ Beautiful video's.. God bless you guys and TFS♡
Could you do a video on all the different ways you use your nuts? I have a ton of walnuts but I struggle with how to use them as a regular part of meals. I am making a walnut heavy granola today and thought about trying a squash and walnut ravioli filling.
Hello! I dig watching your our and the shorts you put out. I really like that you’re traditional but not so traditional that you won’t try other ingredients, tools and so on. You two are very versatile and that’s good living off the land like that. Okay, see ya next time! ❤️💜💚
Have you tried toasting your walnuts prior to grinding? It will give them a richer flavor. 6-8 minutes in 350 degree oven. Let cool, then grind. 😃 love your ingenuity, keep it up!
If you guys still going stir crazy this the time of year for boardgames and puzzles. Plus during warmer days winter walks with snow shoes, cross country skis and well maintained trail hiking.
Wow, this was such a beautiful video! I wasn’t expecting that jump to the Summer elderberry clip 🥲 Best to you both and thanks for sharing your journey with us.
I really respect all the foraging you two do. What is the best way to learn the edible plants? I do research online and hesitate to take it further than trying to find them because I'm worried about poisoning me and the family
At the risk of sounding like a salesperson we actually have an online foraging course where we show how to identify, find, preserve and cook with wild foods. The link is in the video description. Any foraging books by Samuel Thayer are also excellent sources for beginners.
@@HomegrownHandgathered do you only cover what grows in your area? I live in Utah and don’t know if we have the same things that grow native here? Also, where did you guys get your corn grinder and does it also grind hard wheat?
I find it helpful to start by learning the poisonous plants that grow in your area. Get to know them well in all seasons and stages of growth. That way you know what to watch out for. Also learn if there are any look alikes. If you want to be super safe, avoid the Apiaceae family plants until you get really well acquainted with them, as some of the most poisonous plants are in that family. If you can find a local herbalist who offers plant walks, that can be really helpful in being absolutely sure you know what you're doing.
Great video! You guys seem like you manage so much with foraging, community gardens, and your home garden in the growing season. I would love to hear about how you stay organized. Do you plan out when you need to forage certain things or when you need to go weed or plant in the community garden plots?
curious but which organs do you choose to save from your venison? in my home country it's pretty common to save livers especially for use in stews, and they really make such a warm and nostalgic flavor for me 😊
Ooh, I didn’t know milkweed had fiber good for cordage. You may know this already, but dogbane has incredibly strong fibers and would make very strong cordage or rope!
Inspiring video! Would a nutpick help get those teeny bits of walnut or hickories out of their little hidey-holes? I always manage to put shells in with the meats, too -- any suggestions for sorting that out BEFORE I bake? THANKS!!
We would love to someday, but we're currently growing our food in rented community garden plots so we don't have the space. Our friends who just bought a farm are getting dairy goats in the Spring though!
I left TikTok and I'm so happy I found you guys here 😊 you two are the reason my microfarm has flourished.
Ethan's music is an outstanding accompaniment to your videos -- kudos to the artist!
How wonderful to have a husband that does all the cooking with such amazeing dishes😊

I'm sure that the nutbutter was good, but all I could think when you made it was "Try the gray stuff, it's delicious!" 😂❤
I'll have to ask the dishes
You are so lucky with a sweet man who can cook amazing and delicious! I can tell he loves you very much with the way he prepares a beautiful dish for you,made with love.♡
Beautiful video's.. God bless you guys and TFS♡
do you have a video reviewing your food processing equipment?

Ohhhhh great vid! I for one am also EXTREMELY excited to see the foraging crafts as well!!!

your videos are such a salve. thank you. blessings on you both.

These videos are great. I really appreciate the amount of work you put into them.
Very Happy Thanksgiving to you both, I hope your husband is feeling better!
Great video and lovely soothing music.
Thank you for inviting us along - and KISSES to your wonderful dog :)
some grits with venison red eye gravy would make a fine breakfast!
This is what LOVE mean ❤ wish you both all the best and more success
I never thought about using my mest grinder to make nutbutter. So clever!
❤ the music. It was giving. "Mr. Rogers'" vibes.
Your doggie made me smile!!
I have been enjoying all your videos, I've just found your channel, and have watched most videos already, keep up the awesome work and educating us.
Always look forward to your videos!
Love your videos, so inspiring! I just want more😊.
I was thinking you meant lucky for the chunky squirrels you had plenty of them stocked up at home till i realized you meant the nuts lol
1:00 i thought you meant you had plenty of chunky squirrels stored up at home for a second!
I hate to ask what anyone would store chunky squirrels for-
@@franziska9260 i have heard of people eating squirrel. apparently its not dissimilar to rabbit which i have enjoyed.
I love chunky squirrel season 😝

Hey guys can you please post links to some of the equipment you use? Like the stone grinder and the nut cracker
This vid is great, very peaceful christmas vibes :)
Beautiful video...❤❤❤ from Marrakech
Really enjoy your wonderful channel. Will definitely be trying to make the nut butter. I’ve got 12 gallons of black walnuts in the shell. Lol😂
I love kibbe. Kibbe cherry is sooo good
Kibbeh, yum.
I sure do appreciate a man in the kitchen too.
Hey! Could you guys make a video on where and how you fish? Would be really imteresting to see.
That Kebbeh ♥️♥️♥️
Great video! You guys seem like you manage so much with foraging, community gardens, and your home garden in the growing season. I would love to hear about how you stay organized. Do you plan out when you need to forage certain things or when you need to go weed or plant in the community garden plots?
We mostly play it by ear on the foraging side, but we always draw out a garden plan in the Spring for our community garden plots
Chunky squirrels 😂❤
Right? Those squirrels are ready for winter!
curious but which organs do you choose to save from your venison? in my home country it's pretty common to save livers especially for use in stews, and they really make such a warm and nostalgic flavor for me 😊
We usually save the heart, liver and kidneys
What are those red berries 9:45
Ooh, I didn’t know milkweed had fiber good for cordage. You may know this already, but dogbane has incredibly strong fibers and would make very strong cordage or rope!
We actually collected some dogbane on the same walk! The fibers are very similar in texture
really beautiful, inspiring and calming video - thank you for sharing
What brand of grinder do you use?
Inspiring video! Would a nutpick help get those teeny bits of walnut or hickories out of their little hidey-holes? I always manage to put shells in with the meats, too -- any suggestions for sorting that out BEFORE I bake? THANKS!!
Miss Moo
How do you prevent stored food from insects?
Where did you get the grinder?
❤❤❤❤❤
where did you get that hand mill?
Would you guys consider adding goats for dairy?
We would love to someday, but we're currently growing our food in rented community garden plots so we don't have the space. Our friends who just bought a farm are getting dairy goats in the Spring though!
What are red berries at 10.01?
Those are the spicebush berries (aka Appalachian allspice) that we flavored the kibbeh with
✌️❤
meatloaf
But don’t you ever just crave some Chinese food? 🤷♀️😂😂😂
