Your videos are a labor of love and dedication, my friend. The hard work you consistently invest in your craft is truly commendable. And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.
Use the beets in your baking - beets pair up great with chocolate. Dehydrate and powder some of the beets.( can add to soups, stews, baking,- including with flour in breads and pastas, smoothies etc for extra vitamins) Make beet chips - beet hummus - add beets to potatoes to make latkes (potato pancakes) Add diced beets to risotto and rices - pair w apples to make muffins - red velvet cake -
Make some beet kvass as well
You're awesome, fantastic ideas, thank you!
I actually giggled out loud when Elenor said, “this is a dirty situation”. 😂 Watching Grant’s face when helping you was a second giggle moment. So much fun to have the kids in the garden! We had a small amount of rain but we sure could use a lot more. My celery isn’t quite ready yet but I sure enjoyed hearing the crunch of yours. It made me excited for what’s to come here!
Beautiful harvest, Kelsey!
They are such characters! Always giving me a good laugh. Aren’t those crunchy sounds satisfying?! Blessings to you and your garden. Thank you!!
Grant is adorable, I miss my boys being young, but glad they grew up 😊
My husband's grandmother was polish and made red beet soup.I need developed a taste for itbut the rest of family loved it.
I could eat picked beets everyday. I mostly put them in my salads. Also good just on the side.
Your garden looks so greens and healthy.
Overgrown cucumber is good idea. You can leave a few of these for seeds and you will have your own planting material for the next season.
Yes! I do this towards the very end of the season so as to not effect the output of the plant ☺️
In your strawberry beds, or all over your garden, you can use diatomaceous earth is affectionately known as the DE. That’ll help you with your slugs, Mill mill bugs, earwigs, any other creepy crawlies
Children are the most observant humans on the face of the earth and will always tell you like it is. “This is a dirty situation!” 🥰 I just about cried laughing! What a beautiful way to spend the day!!! 💜🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽. So beautiful that you are introducing the garden and all the things that go along with it to your children at an early age. I wish I had known early so I could have imparted the importance of it to my children. My 3 kiddos now think this is just my newest hobby! 🤣 But they are more than happy to partake in the spoils when it’s done! Great video and great job!!! 💜
So true and I love it! She is always giving us a laugh! Thanks so much for watching 🤍☺️
congrats to you, i didnt get anything from my garden, but i assume you are a greater being.
Your garden filled out beautifully from your last tour.
It has! I’m always amazed at how quickly things change. Thanks for watching 🤍
I love that sound of veggies cutting from the garden ❤
Isn’t it satisfying?!
We don't like beets, but we do like to make beet kvass. It's a fermented beverage that's pretty good and has a lot of health benefits. Just beets, water, and salt.
I bought an electric pressure canner this year (about $100) for small batch canning and so I don't have to watch it. It's been so nice for doing just a couple of pints/quarts of green beans every couple days.
slice thin and season and dehydrate for snacking chips or make Borche soup or the things to make soup
That second cabbage looks like a Dutch late flat cabbage. I’ve grown it before and it has a sweet taste.
I think you are 💯 Correct! I forgot I purchased some from a greenhouse in addition to the ones I started!
I air fry beets with some salt or homemade buttermilk ranch type seasoning and my family gobbles them up as fast as I can make them!
Yum! I’m thinking perhaps some seasoned beet chips may be good!
I love hearing the crunch sound from your vegetables.
Isn’t it satisfying!?
Chocolate beetroot cake or chocolate beetroot brownies are delicious
Well then, I guess I’ll be making those 😂 Thanks!
What a haul! You're going to be busy!
Never a not busy moment it seems 😂 Grateful.
Such a beautiful garden ❤ love your channel ❤
I think you can shred beets and make a beet and carrot salad !
Beautiful kale
Beetroot chutney.
I include red onion, apples, dried cranberries, ginger, chilli, all spice and a little cinnamon. I cook the diced fruit and veg in red wine vinegar before I add the sugar which helps to keep the glorious beetroot colour.
That sounds lovely! Thank you 😊
Beautiful garden. Between the fires in Canada - the extreme heat and heavy rain my garden is looking very sad. Lost cucumbers, squash and peppers. Such a heart break as I worked so hard putting the garden in. I enjoy watching what you make with your harvest. So adorable that your children are big helpers
Borstij soup is really nice and would can pretty well for ready meals? Havn't tried canning but it uses a lot of beets and is delicious.
I really enjoy this channel 🥰
I'm so Glad you enjoy it! Thank you :)
Love hearing your daughter's amazement in the garden! Grant did not hesitate to go help mommy in the garden either! I love seeing your garden, mine is still so big I cant say I enjoy harvesting if that makes sense. Next year I am downsizing to half and see how that goes! Thank you for sharing your family as well as your beautiful garden and abundant harvest! Blessings!
Oh thank you, I love them so. I’m so thankful they enjoy the garden as much as mama. I do understand! I’m actually thinking of downsizing a bit as well. It’s almost too much for me to truly enjoy it a d stay on top of it all! Blessings to you ☺️🤍
I absolutely love your channel! Blessings to your family!
I’m so so glad! Thank you. Blessings ❤😊
I am not a smoothie gal, but I know people buy beet powder to add to smoothies
I'm not either... but I wish I was! I just can't find a way that I really enjoy them!
Such an amazing harvest ❤ I can't wait to see what you do with it 😁
Thank you ☺️ that will be up next week!
Beautiful garden and a wonderful harvest! Beauty!
Thank you so much!❤
Beetroot relish is sooooo delicious!
I may have to give that a go!
Wonderful harvest❤
Thank you for watching ❤️❤️❤️
Such a beautiful garden! 😍
Thank you ☺️ 🤍
I bet you could make some amazing beetroot powder with your freeze dryer!
Yes! I Plan on doing that, thank you :)
Your garden is so lush. Hard work pays off. Enjoy. Want to see how you use your cabbage. TY
Thank you! I’m working on the cabbage right now ☺️
Wow, those petunias 😮. And petunias are usually not my favorite summer flower but those are stunning. Beautiful harvest 😊
They've grown on me! I was never a petunia fan, and then I found some not so average varieties from Baker Creek and I was in love! Thank you :)
Try and make no tomato pasta sauce also called nomato sauce. The flavor and color mimics regular tomato sauce, without containing any tomatoes. The main ingredient is red beets. It’s super delicious and can be pressure canned.
If you like smoothies or healthy green beverages you can freeze the beets and make a powder for your yummy juices, same if you have an overstock of celery. It's easy and it'll last very well. You can also ad it in soups, stews, creams. Also for the beet powder it can be added to salsas and even oatmeal and yogurts. Awesome harvest, your veggies looks so lush and healthy. 🐞🐝
Awesome, thanks for the suggestions! Blessings 🤍
I freeze roasted beets to later purée and use in brownies, hummus, smoothies, etc. They freeze well!
I was thinking of freezing for hummus! Never thought to use in brownies! How fun! Thank you
I dont understand why this lady has a health issue when her garden is so lush and abundant with organic produce.
You’d think right?! I wish it were that easy but a lifetime of exposure to chemicals, toxins and other junk found literally everywhere has just been hard on my body. Autoimmune issues have wreaked havoc. I’m thankful for that garden and it’s organic produce though, it definitely helps the healing process!
thankyou for the video!!
Thanks for watching ☺️🤍
Beetroot Relish … that’s my suggestion
We love it
Your Harvest is amazing
Well done
Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Oh thank you! Looking up a recipe for that now! Blessings 🤍
Beet relish is nice vv
Share with family, friends and neighbors
Whatever I can’t get to is always shared ☺️❤️
I throw a beet or two in our smoothies every morning.
Oh interesting! I bet that gives them a beautiful color!
Beet salad
You could freeze dry your beets and turn into powder and fill into pill capsules and take as a supplement
Oh never would have thought of that! Thanks 😊
From no rain to rain overload! 😂 #gardenlife
Also... your garden is looking 🔥 😍
Literally. It nuts. 😂
Thank you! We need to get together again soon!
found a recipe for molasses from beets online maybe look it up can't remember the name of the website sorry
Roast the beets and serve with herbs and burrata 😋
Ya know I’ve never seen burrata in stores around here! I might have to go to a bigger city. Sounds delish though!
Dehydrate the beet , into chips
You can juice the beets for fresh beet juice and freeze some for juice later
I give my family beets, celery, cucumber and occasionally carrots juiced together as a breakfast drink. Get those nutrients straight into those bodies. I say occasionally to the carrots because if the beets are sweet the carrots will make it even sweeter.
This sounds amazing!
This is intriguing! Is there any way I can do this without a juicer?
@@seedandsparrowhomestead
Probably with a blender and strain through a cheesecloth to take out the pulp and you may have to add water to it while blending.
@@shannonnewman9202
It is very delicious and nutritious
@@roniecesmith2800 Thanks! I may give it a try :)
Do you know how to make sugar from you extra beets? That might be a good option?
Where do you purchase mild jalapeños? I would love to order some.
The mild I found from a local greenhouse, but the nadapenos I purchased from Baker Creek ☺️
Have you ever freezedryed your beans?
Yes! I have so many 😂 we still prefer the texture of frozen. I’m honestly just running out of space to store freeze dried things 😬 I need a bigger pantry!
I planted chamomile for the first time. Do I just pick the flowers for tea?
From my understanding yeah you just pick the flowers for tea
Yes! Pick when all petals are open, steep fresh or dehydrate for later use!
Thank you!

Beet preparation option for preserving vitamins for the winter:
take beets, dried apricots, raisins and honey, cut into pieces or grind, mix, bake in the oven for about 30 minutes, then put it into sterile jars.
Another option is simply to store root crops in the cellar and take them as needed. If the cellar is dry, root vegetables can be placed in a box of sand and moistened from time to time. Beets are preserved in the cellar until spring, and in spring some of the root crops can be planted on seeds.
For storage in the cellar, it is best to remove beets from the bed in late autumn. In the garden, it retains itself better than in any storage.
If winter is mild in your area, you can leave beets in the garden altogether and take when you need to right from the garden bed.
Excellent information! Thank you for taking the time to share, much appreciated 🤍
Very unrelated but I want to make sure I do things correctly! I made your bread recipe on my channel. How would you like it to be credited? Do you want the recipe typed as you gave it or just linked to your channel?
Lol! So kind, thank you for wanting to give me credit. Whenever I share something that was originally someone else’s I just like to share their channel/video in the description ☺️ So if you want you can link that video with the recipe that’s fine!
@@seedandsparrowhomestead ok Awesome thanks! I am going to try and find the video!!
@@ChristFirstHomemakingif it’s the white sandwich loaf it’s in either the “making a months worth of bread in a day” or in “the perfect sandwich loaf” 😊
@@seedandsparrowhomestead th-cam.com/video/vwI_yJIF4p4/w-d-xo.html this is the one I linked! It is the white sandwich loaf
You’re the best, thank you friend ❤
