We want to share our passion for efficient, sustainable homesteading that brings the family together. On our homestead we do chemical-free gardening, grass-fed milk and beef, pastured eggs and broiler chickens, and free range children :) We love to go on adventures as a family, so if we're not workin on the farm, we're probably hiking or out getting ice cream. We're all into DIY, and being inventive and creative. We believe in homesteading that's sustainable, not just sustainable homesteading. In other words, we want to show you that homesteading doesn't have to wear you out to the point that you give it up. We've seen it happen, and almost came to that point ourselves. So go ahead and take a whack at that subscribe button if you'd like to join us on this crazy ride. Get ready to learn and be inspired! - บันเทิง

I am so glad I found your channel. Your channel is so good. Your video structure, and pacing is spot on. I love your content and video editing. I know you were conflicted because all the time and work you put into TH-cam this season kept you from getting some work done on the homestead. It was time well spent. Your investment has paid off. You have one of the best channels out there.
Thanks so much! Such kind and encouraging words 😊 Glad you're here!
Said the same thing! As a New Yorker we move fast😅
Agreed!! Love from East Africa, KENYA!! 🎉 Love every single bit of your channel!!
ditto! Well said!!
Yes, I agree with this post... Love from Nairobi Kenya... My dream is a homestead retirement... In the process of purchasing a small piece of land. Wish me luck ... Guys keep up the good work ❤❤❤❤❤
I love that Michelle suggested buying the cookbook for the pie crust recipe. I think that says a lot about her character and her respect for other types of creators. As always, another great video! Catherine
You two are just SO cute! You'll have to settle your green bean differences in an adult manner just like my husband and I do..rock,paper,scissors. Best 2 out of 3 wins. 😂
Many blessings and a beautiful Thanksgiving to you. ❤
Love it 😁
Despite living in an apartment, I have a dream of a small homestead one day. You are both encouraging and I’ve learned a lot from your vlogs. It’s refreshing there’s no judgment, but you guys just teach and show your homestead ❤
We started out in a basement apartment! I hope you get to accomplish your dream 😊 And glad we can be a part of your journey!
Wow.. Young woman, you are amazing.. You'd put us other women to shame... I'm learning so much from you both, so thankyou
You might consider putting together a Holiday cookbook with all these recipes. I’d be first in line for it!
I started planning my Thanksgiving in July. I grew so many of the sides like green beans, sweet potatoes, white potatoes collards and spices like SAGE. I am so excited
That's so cool! Hope it turns out well 😊
Look at you guys with a sponsor and all . I 'll bet you get a bunch more . Great content . Thanks for another great vid .
Looks pretty official doesn't it? 😁😉 You're welcome!
I just have to say that I really love this channel. I have been subscribed for a while now, but I have never commented. This summer was the first time I had ever grown anything in my life. I was quite successful. I learned a lot from your channel. Thank you so much. I have also made Michelle's BBQ sauce and raspberry jam, and they were both very good. I will be making the caramel corn this weekend.I also really like how real you are as well. You show that homesteading is a lot of work, but you also show how rewarding it is, and even though not everyone is able to homestead, there is still a lot to be learned from you. Your tips and tricks work just as well for the small gardener and homecook. Sorry this was so long, but thank you for all your hard work.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment! Glad you're here, and that you're enjoying the videos and learning. So glad you had a successful first growing season! Keep it up!
Hey there from South Australia once again! So lovely a meal... so much work but when you do it together, it really does make you thankful eh! So many of those dishes are American favorites, we've never made a pumpkin pie but this year, as we are growing 2 varieties of pumpkin / squash including butternut, we have to give it a go! Gotta ask though, what were your children doing all day that allowed you to film and work so hard without seeming to have any interruption? We love how you include a family heart focus and it is all about serving, serving God, serving your family, serving each other, indeed through honesty, serving your youtube community. It's great that we can be on the other side of the world and be invited into another world. If you ever want to travel to Australia, give us a bell and we would love to host you for a bit when we get out new property! God bless.
Howdy! You definitely don't have to be American to enjoy pumpkin pie 😉 With most of our videos we find something for the kids to do, or shoot during their quiet time in the afternoon. With this one though, since it was all day, they got to go to grandma's house 😁 Thank you for the kind words! Australia is on our bucket list 😊
Another basic Pumpkin Spice girl (from Ohio, too!) checking in. Great looking meal!
Howdy! 😊
You all have rapidly become my favorite channel and I really look forward to your videos. Thank you.
That's great! Thank you, and it's our pleasure 😊
Bread stuffing
Day old bread for crumbs
Mixed herbs sprinkled into the bread so it looks speckled
Diced onions
Salt
Pepper
1-2 eggs mixed in to bind
Anything else you like
Its a drier stuffing and tasty
Not for me! 😊
"Basic girl Pumpkin Spice" 😂 cuuute! I know she doesn't like cooking but she fly at it!! 🎉 SMACKERELZ!!!
She sure is!! I’m a lucky guy 😊
That looked amazing! Especially that homemade ice cream. A lot of work went into growing, harvesting and preparing all of it. What an experience for your family!
Yes, and so worth it!
The massive amount of work put into this video AND dinner just astounds me! Cooking a Thanksgiving dinner is enough work all by itself but everything all at once by scratch PLUS all of the clean up and video of it.....JUST WOW!
😂 so glad you enjoyed it!
This is one of your videos that I saved. So much info. The butternut pie is interesting! I'll have to try that. I really like the way you splice in quick clips of past things to explain what you just said. I love the way 'Mrs Farmer' 🙂 looks at the camera quickly out of the corner of her eye while you film. She seems to have a great knowledge base of cooking but hates cooking! "You got that camera on me again?" "Do we really have to film this?" Ha. She doesn't flap trap along using too many words to make more content. Concise and to the point. "Take what I say or shove it!" I'm still going thru your videos. It's like a Christmas gift. Course I'm 71 and a 'useless eater' so everything is relative I spose. One time my better half once said, - "You not only fell off the turnip truck - it ran over you as well!" Ain't true love grand? Have a good one.
Haha love it 😊
My husband and I love you guys channel. It's real and not that Pintrest perfect farm. God bless you and your family.
In Brazil we have something similar to stuffing/dressing called Farofa. It is basically toasted fine cassava flour you should try it! The simplest version is made by toasting it on the stove top with butter and salt, and it goes amazing with wet foods like beans. But the version that is similar to your American stuffing/dressing is one we make by frying small diced bacon, chicken/turkey inners (when we make it to accompany the bird at Christmas), garlic and sauteed diced onions, and then frying the fine cassava flour on the bacon fat and added butter to taste. Sometimes we also add chopped nuts, diced apple and raisins. This version is made wetter than the first one, by using more fat, because we usually stuff the bird with it before baking it. That is why I think it is similar (but better!) to American stuffing/dressing.
It's too early in the day to be this hungry 😵💫 Sounds fantastic!
Oh, sweet sensations, delicious meal right there ! Right here in southeast Texas , no stuffing.. no Thanksgiving 😅😅
And believe me , once you try the south style stuffing!? You will want every year .
Be blessed 🙏🏻
😂 I doubt it 😉 But to each his own!
I'm with Michelle on the green beans....frozen are MUCH better! 😁 And if you make stuffing properly, it is light and fluffy and buttery and completely yummy! You have to avoid those dry bread crumbs they sell millions of bags of every year around the holidays, and use homemade bread.....!
Cody is right - canned beans are better than frozen! LOL When you get to raising turkey's, you will enjoy them...they are the homestead's most underused poultry I figure - they give you a lot of meat and they can be meat on the hoof too. That pie crust and pie looks wonderful!! If you don't like the bread stuffing, a rice stuffing is a nice change - par cook the rice and it will finish cooking in the bird....my family makes it often. The meal looks wonderful! Good job.
My Argentine mother-in-law makes meat stuffing. It's delicious and has not a crumb of bread in it!
Now that sounds like it could be good 😊
Around my neck of the woods, stuffing is a wet, nasty bread concoction that is used to stuff the bird with. Dressing, however, Thanksgiving is not Thanksgiving without dressing! Using stale bread with spices and onions, celery and a few other ingredients covered in the juices of the turkey (or chicken) and baked... I could eat it all year round. I found your channel searching for how to grow blackberries. I prefer them to raspberries, but I am using your channel as inspiration. Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Either way I don't like celery 😉 Happy Thanksgiving!
I used to have a whirlypop, but after owning it for years, I realized it was made from aluminum and scraping aluminum into my popcorn in powder form. Try to stay away from that. I do it in a wok now with a lid. It’s pretty easy too :)
You can get a stainless steel whirlypop! 😊
@@morethanfarmers ::mind blown::!
Finally a homestead channel I can really relate to. You are doing amazing job and I learn really so much!!!!! So a huge "thank you" and much joy on your farm!!!!!! 🕊️💛🕊️
I agree with Cody on the green beans but not on the stuffing. 😂 That food looks sooooo delicious!
😁 It was very delicious!
YESS HOT APPLE CIDER WITH CINNAMON STICKS ORANGE SLICES LEMON. SLICES AN 8 .CLOVES STEEP ON SOUP FOR HOLIDAY. SUPER YUMMY AN HEALTHY....SHE IS ALWAYS SO PATIENT WITH CONGRATS TAKES TONS WISE GROWN UP SELF CONTROL.
I love your show so much, keep up the good work!!🙏
Thank you! Hope you like this one 😊
@@morethanfarmers yes...I can't wait to try some of the recipes/ideas.
Next time do a seasoning with your chicken, overnight, fresh thyme, cilantro, onions, salt, black pepper, 2 tablespoon of olive oil, and mix and base inside of a chicken with rubber gloves under the skin and cook the chicken the next day
Wonderful meal! Makes me wish I could be there to share. Great job on the video. I am guessing that doing the video along with making the meal really left the two of you very busy. God bless y'all and keep growing!
Thanks! We were so wiped out at the end of the day!
Guys I started raising turkeys last year. A great breed to get are Midget Whites. Check them out. They are so friendly and non aggressive. I house them with my chickens. The breast meat is like dark meat of chicken. Also....try red potatoes mashed with skins!!!! Yummy. At the college I worked at we called them dirty mashed potatoes. Of course wash them. Lol Also try putting the carmel corn in the oven and stir every 15 minutes. It sets the caramel. I also use my bread that gets to the point it is not so soft and cut it into cubes and put them in my toaster oven (season them with garlic and herbs) I make my own "stuffing" but I don't stuff the bird. Use the gravy to moisten the croutons and add onions. Top with gravy...DELICIOUS!! I do have to ask, why are you making Thanksgiving dinner so early?
Because a video about making a Thanksgiving dinner AFTER Thanksgiving would be too late for you all 😊 We'll have a regular Thanksgiving with family.
This was a fun watch. Planning, cooperation, kiddos, suspense, new tools and recipes, fun, feat and feast. 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
Never thought of putting seasoning under the skin…makes so much sense!
Everything looks so good
I don’t like to rush Christmas either. I like to enjoy Thanksgiving and then I’m ready for Christmas. Love the homemade brown sugar!
Yummy! Everything thing looks so delicious!! Nice job! 🎉❤
Everything looks so good, yummmmmm😋
Looks so good! Yum!!!
My mouth is watering - what an incredible feast!
Such a great idea on the homemade ice cream! It’s never quite as thick or as scoopable as I wanted it to be. Never thought about freezing it twice. 😊❤ thanks for all the wonderful information.
You're so welcome!
“Fire in the hole “ 😂😅 too funny. Love your channel ❤
Wow, my mouth is watering. Looks delicious!
Your videos are put together so well. Amazing.
I wish you all the success you so richly deserve.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed 😊
Wonderful family and terrific meal. Thanks for sharing.
I enjoyed these different meals ideas👍
Love yalls simplicity of things... never over complicated!
Delicious looking dinner. I think i would have had some of each. Glad you had company too. I think that is so important. On to the next video....
Glad you're enjoying! 😁
Very quality, fun, interesting, and informative videos! Everything looks so delicious!
OMG! My family would boycott the meal if I didn’t make stuffing. It is a MUST! LOL! I make it both in and out of the bird. Soooooooo good. I do need to try a squash over a pumpkin though. Does it taste really different? (Would anybody know if I didn’t tell them until after they ate it? 😉)
Once again…great video. You guys just crack me up. You are so real! Love it!
😂 They probably wouldn't be able to tell the dif. The taste is the same. Just seems smoother and sweeter. Thanks!
Wow. What an amazing meal. It's so nice that you can share it with family too.
Its wonderful the was way you are showing others how they can grow food
That all looked so so good!
It all looks So amazing!! ❤❤😊
Cody!!! - the stuffing is the best part! 😁
Naaah 😁

We've never done cornbread.. that might be better.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you so much for the Thanksgiving inspiration! I love cooking a big dinner with a deep fried turkey that my husband always does. With all my girls, the sil's and grands, there's 25 of us. A house full for sure and I love every bit of it! I got to get my list started of what all I want to make. 😊
You're welcome! Sounds fun 😊
Stirring your pot of cider with a butter knife was the most relatable thing I've ever seen on a TH-cam video. 😂
😁😁
Excellent video! Michelle is a great cook!
Thanks! She really is! 😊
Love all the tips!! ❤👍🙌
Wow looks good
Beautiful meal and beautiful family. I enjoy all your vlogs, very helpful and informative.
Thank you 😊
My new favorite channel
I need to make a butternut pie, sounds yummy!
Down here in Alabama, We make cornbread dressing. SO GOOD
Amazing that you are able to use most of what you grow to provide a Thanksgiving meal to me that's what it's all about , I so wish we celebrated thanks giving in England ,I love nothing better then catering for my friends and family
It's a really good feeling!
Good day! We roast chicken instead of turkey, too! Chicken tastes better, and it doesn't take as long to cook. That way, we are not wasting time or energy 😊 we love your channel! Thank-you ❤
Right on!
Your channel has inspired me so much, thank you's❤️❤️
You're very welcome!
