I love the fact that y'all share everything with each other. Not just y'all personally, but your neighbors, and I'm quite sure anyone in need. It's just the way when you live in a good ol time community. Keep things simple. Help each other in need. Always be kind and respectful. That's the way we all should live.
You guys are wonderful people. Your videos are so heart warming. God shines down on you and HE is sprinkling your family with HIS divine radiant beams! God bless your entire family.
I know im late on this one but here goes. That song at the end of the video, Wild Wood Flower. That is my dad's favorite song. Great video, one more we get is milk weed greens. When they are young and tender.
I've got dandelions and plantain in my front yard, found some lambs quarter in the parkway across the street(along with large amounts of dandelions). Had purslane at my previous home, didn't know what it was - I pulled it out like crazy and threw it on my compost bed. When a kid on the farm, my kid brother got stung on the big toe by a bumblebee. My great-uncle was visiting and made a drawing poultice from chewed plantain leaves and pine pitch. Worked like a charm!
I eat polk salad when the leaves are as big as a dinner plate. I boil it one time and fry it in Canola oil, so it's not as toxic as we have been told. Have to scramble them eggs in there though. No one's ever died from eating mine! LOL
It has been forever since I've had poke. My grandparents used to fix this back when they were farming in Hardin/LaRue county, KY (back in the 30's-60's). They'd slaughter the hogs and render down lard (usually in October when it was cooler) in huge iron pots. I wish I had paid attention what they were doing. Enjoy your channel and subscribed. Love your work on your cabin too.
Mama used to take us to the yard to pick wild greens. Sometimes we'd walk down the road. Wild mustard was my favorite. Mama learned it from her Mama right where you are in the hills of Kentucky. Thanks for the memories!!
My grandma is from Kentucky and my grandpa is from Tennessee,move to Texas way back not sure of the year but it was early 1900's i think it was 1920 when they came here when we were in the great depression her dad came to find work cause they heared TX was doing good but it wasn't.
Congrats on 10,000 subs buddy!!! Watching your videos make me miss growing up in the beautiful outdoors of the Bluegrass State. Keep churning out the videos. We love your content!
you all have a beautiful garden.. and the sound of your voice reminds me of my home in Logan county West Virginia.. I have lived in south Carolina for almost 19 years and I can't get nothing to grow in this red clay.. I could grow things when I lived up home in the mountains.. I miss my mountain home.. May God continue to bless you and your little family...
Found your channel last night on my recommended list and newly subscribed. I've enjoyed watching your past videos . You guys have a gentle way about you that is so welcoming. Beautiful country you live in there, and a beautiful family to grow along with your farm. Thank you for taking the time to post videos and share your experience. I'm a Christmas tree, pumpkin, corn and soybean farmer from southern Illinois.
Thank you very much!! We may have to get some advice from you on our pumpkins this year!! Been working on figuring when we want to plant them. They mature 90-100 days and I was told plan 6 weeks before that date to plant seeds
@@FlutyLickHomestead We direct seed into tilled ground. We plant 83 different varieties of pumpkins, winter squash, gourds, white pumpkins, and specialty squash. They range in maturity from 70 to 120 days. We try to plant between June 15 and July 1. Latest we ever planted was July 7. Our goal is to have most of them ready around 1 October. We open 15 September.
Congratulations on 10k subscribers! That garden looked amazing! Healthy plants, clean of weeds, and nice rich dark soil! Great foraging too. Around my folks old home there would be crabapples, blackberries, dandelions, different types of mushrooms, and a whole bunch of other goodies. Take care!
Jared, do you still go live on Monday night? What time? I live in Illinois and I’d sure love to see you all live. I’ve watched a couple of you and your precious little ladies Q&A ❤️ on replay. Love this channel!!!!!!
Sandy Bayes thank you so much! I haven’t in a while but I’ve had a lot of people asking me to again so we will try to start it back! If we do I used to do it about 8 pm est.
I was so excited to see the fruits of you labor from the raised beds. My goodness the kale and spinach were just beautiful, I so wished I had a kitchen garden. Great job guys, keep us updated with the carrots. 🥬🥬
Cherish what you have growing NATURALLY in your yard that GOD our CREATOR provided for us. I eat POLK SALAD when it is in season. My family prepared it different ways. We boiled the POLK SALAD until all the green was gone. It is delicious to eat. Eating home grown foods will keep you and your family HEALTHY & STRONG. You are growing your foods the way the GOOD-LORD intended. I would love a mess of those young-tender turnip greens. ENJOYED THIS VIDEO!
I was up on Fox Mtn. with a best friend of mine turkey hunting a few yrs. back and My friend said we'll work our way down to Roaring Branch Rd and pick us some Branch Lettuce for our salad that night.. We got down to the stream started picking branch lettuce ..I even took a bite of it,and man was it bitter. An Old Man came up ask ,Hey what you girls a picking?My Friend Jackie said I'm picking these city girls some branch lettuce..The old Man Laughed and said "That aint Branch Lettuce" It's Pole Cat Cabbage" Lol What a Big Laugh We still have about that day.... :)
I love polk sallet this time of year... I boil it two (short) times of about one minute each pot, then about 5 minutes, then fry it with eggs. Jared, you have God's greatest gift to man: a good woman. Not to disrespect all the ones that are not good (like my ex-wife), but just saying...
I love poke myself. I don't boil it at all. I simply wash it real good in cold, tap water, and saute it in butter, salt, and pepper. I take the bigger leaves, and fry in bacon grease, dry on a paper towel, and salt them. MUCH better than potato chips. I strip the outer skin off stalk, and cook them in butter, salt and pepper. No need for fancy seasonings for Poke.
@@dragunovbushcraft152 - There are many here in the south who are of the same mind. They only shy away from any "red" part of the plant. However, many here actually pickle the red stalks. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Hey Jared , man what a garden full of greens. And a yard full of the edible weeds ;-) I always hated it when the dandelions started coming out cause I had to go around and clear them from the neighbors too but we sure ate good with the garden stuff too. Looking forward to Laken's cooking videos. Finley was having a time playing. Thanks for sharing
I might be from south central Kansas but I love a good mess of greens time to time ! I'll try anything at least once food wise ! My favorite pies is sweet potato then pecan then custard ! Thank you for info on the poke I'll be sure to check it out more before trying it ! Great video ! Oh shared the last video that I watch with some friends sure hope that they will check you out too ! Thank you again for the great video and info !
That looks wonderful.the blue or purple veggies are rich in anthrocyanins.(cancer deterrants)salad made me have a craving.lol thanks &blessings to your family &garden
I would love to pull up a chair at your table . I love wild greens. And you know they have to be healthy . So what else are you fixing for dinner to go with them greens . I make cornbread and fried taters . Can't beat it .
Then the stalk of polk is just a little smaller as your little finger, and before it get's pithy, it is delicious breaded in corn meal and fried like fish. Taste like fried asparagus. I can eat myself silly on it.
Kale, and Collards are "ok". However, Stinging nettles, Spring beauties, Poke, Lambs quarters, Amaranth, Orach, are all superior in flavor to Kale, Collards, and spinach. I grew up in Eastern KY, and Southern Ohio. Garden of Eden for food plants. I used to hunt wild asparagus, and Spring Beauties in your area. :)
@@FlutyLickHomestead You should try the Spri ng Beauties. There is a small "potato" underground a couple of inches, that makes regular potatoes seem bland.
Beautiful garden. What was the taller plant behind the mustard? Thanks for showing us the wild greens, we have some of them in our yard, it's nice to know what they are. I thoroughly enjoyed your vid & look forward to watching the one about cooking the greens.
Tire planters, who knew? Thank you for sharing! I used to pick wild greens when I was little, it used to turn my hands black, do you know which one that was? I can’t remember! 🙌🏻❤️🥬
Them plantin leaves comes up everywhere at my house, i think some Indians called it white mans foot ( because everywhere the white man went and disturbed the soil they come up.) Ive used it for burns and cuts take the leaf and put it on the wound a d wrap it lightly, takes the sore out.
Plantain is great stuff. Will cause a large cut on your skin to heal up fast without stitches. Will neutralize rattlesnake or brown recluse spider bites. It will also totally get rid of Hemorrhoids if made into a salve.
I hear that dandelion tea is good ! I also heard that some part of it good as a pain reliever ! Do you if this is true or not ? If so what parts is used for each ?
Thank you ! I try to do things with natural plants ! Please let me know what you find out about the tea ! I know that wild lettuce is used around here for pain but it is strong and not sure which part of it is used either .
By the way, Dandelion roots make a good coffee substitute same as Chicory- Dry 'em out- skin 'em-- roast in the oven- pound 'em- they'll shatter into crystalline fragments- the rest is up to you- 👊tt
We were shown these from previous generations who knew them all. We don’t pick anything new with out research and finding someone who can show you first hand is the best

Those dandelion flowers are good too. Just dust them with a little flour and fry them up like you would green tomatoes or zucchini.

Can't wait to see some more of your banjo or guitar picking on the porch. I really enjoy watching your family. Take care
Thank you! We will do some pickin soon
enjoyed the video, thanks for the share and you all have a blessed day ,God bless
You can take leaves off the broccoli and cauliflower too for stir fry or greens.
We will have to try that
I have a ton of Broadleaf plantain.. and now my Chanterelle mushrooms are popping up.
Your garden is beautiful. Im over here in the Missouri Ozarks, my raised bed garden is a Blessing this year too. Smiles

You can freeze about any greens blanch and freeze
I wonder if we have these in upstate NY near Woodstock.
Possibly! You could probably research weeds and greens in your area
Do you cook the wild greens? If so could you do a video how ya fix em?
We hope to have that video up this week
Wow, he's accent sounds a bit like the man from "King of the Hill"
You got any wild weed growing? Iam from CA. What's the weed situation over their?
Nope lol only thing legal in Ky I think is industrial hemp is being grown now
Fluty Lick Homestead I don't understand because weed is natural organic and been around for thousands of years.
