With all those potatoes i can see and taste a whole lot of baked potatoes, scalloped potatoes ,potato salad, and potatoe soup,as well as potato chips being made,and of course French fries and the list goes on lol enjoy 👍😆😊...
Agreed! From a fellow aussie... once the boys master rotational breathing- in through the nose as you blow out, and for the wicked 'bush sounds'- breathing back in through the didge, they'll be ready for corroboree! 🇦🇺
“Nothing crazy for dinner”. Beef n gravy. Potatoes. Squash. And green beans! Wow! And that precious little girl! She got me when she told mommy “I liked dinner”!!! Melted my heart. Y’all are so blessed!
Wouldn’t those rotten ones possibly be the seed potatoes themselves? You folks are great! I enjoy watching the whole family working together. Pig food green b eans.
@@loissaedder2214 - they get soft/shrivel as their energy is consumed by the growing potatoes and will subsequently rot if there is an abundance of rain... i think this year qualifies!
When I was 12, the whole extended family was digging potatoes and I heard my uncle call me. I turned around and SPLAT. Hit a rotten potato right in the chest. Had to work a few rows away for the others the rest of the day and ride home in the back of the truck. 55 years ago and I still remind my uncle about that every potato season. 🙂
Meg, I am so impressed with how much food you guys produce on your homestead. I'd love to see a grocery haul, bulk buys, etc, to fill in what you don't grow.
I had that same white speckle stuff one year. It is cause by too much standing water once the potatoes are formed. I dig them now before the vines dry and I don't have that problem any more.
That is exactly how I feel about digging potatoes, it's like a treasure hunt. Love the trays. In the last couple of days I've picked and preserved tomatoes, carrots, onions, and beets. It's full on garden season. Sooooo busy.
Sometimes gardens are a hit and miss, but so far looks good. Brett's garden is looking good. Meg dinner reminds me of my mother-in-law who canned what we called loosy meat and served it just like you with green beans as well, the only difference is, she made biscuits for her homemade strawberry freezer jam yum. Blessings to the family. 😊🇺🇲
I remember your very first season of gardening in NC. You have come a long way. So much good produce from the land. Sweat and hard work pays off. And delicious dinners! Good job!
Your potato avalanche was just those potatoes volunteering to replant themselves for your next crop of potatoes LoL 🤣😆🤣😆🤣 Congratulations on the potato harvest so far for 2023🎉🎉🎉💯👏👏👏
Oh my gosh, Buggie reminds me of my daughter at that age! She's 47 now, but she was strong-willed, cute little voice and a bubbly, happy girl. Those endearing qualities made her the really fun adult that she is today. A great mother & auntie❤️
@@vmcougarintn5035 I'm so sorry 😢 I lost my adult son in his sleep last year. My heart goes out to you. Thank you for sharing. It's a terrible thing to endure. Im doing okay because I got visitation with my young grandsons. They really needed to grieve with their Dad's family. Please take care sweet Momma🩷🌸🌻
Some people make small root cellars out of buried galvanized garbage cans, leaving enough out so that water slopes away from the rims. Maybe under a crawlspace under your house? Shade. Worth a try for one or two. If you dig enough the ground is always cool. You’ll figure it out.
He has a hill down in the back - can dig out a cellar there - I use to use the buried garbage cans for carrots and potatoes - worked out great with wet sand in the cans with the veggies
Potatoes! while staying in colorado i got invited to go "glean" a farm by the framer(s) and some friends. the farmers got what they wanted and let us all have at the rest. i'd never grown potatoes before so i was happy to do it. but we all had a little trouble getting the leftovers out of the ground. one of the farmers came back with a "potato harvester" i didn't even know such a thing existed. he re-ran through the rows and uncovered LOTS of them. he was a little shocked at how many were in there hiding slightly deeper in the soil. there were so many, far to many for the 15 or so people picking them all up. we gave probably half of what we picked up back to the farm (they were grateful). i still ended up with 300 pounds in the back of my little truck to be shared with others who weren't able to come get the free leftovers. these were the best potatoes i have ever tasted. the only way i can explain it is they tasted more potatoie. i had no idea commercially farmed potatoes were so bland. ever since i have grown my own almost every year. (sometimes i grow way too many lol)
Have you ever had lazy pierogies? You fry up bacon and onions. Add cooked macaroni noodles and cheddar cheese and some mashed potatoes. Stir all together. A huge hit in our house
A lot of the bad potatoes you dug up were the seed potatoes you planted in the spring. They were still whole because they were totally wrapped in their skin and this prevented from rotting into food for the plant. Next year cut your seed potatoes in half before planting them, then you will be able to identify them when you dig them up. Also, cut seed potatoes will germinate faster and rot down to provide food for the new plants. The eyes of the potato are what sprout and form the new plants. I have seen potato plants growing just from potato peelings that were dumped in the garden as compost.
I wonder if they just had too much rain that will make some of them rot. As far as the root cellar and potato storage goes. Potatoes need extremely high humidity just not the high temps. I doubt it was too humid under the barn. Potatoes need 80 to 90% humidity. I would recomend the book Root Cellaring by Nancy Bubel. It is a wonderful book. We never hill our potatoes just plant them deep. The root cellar for potatoes you do not even want a cement floor. They need so much humidity the floor should be pea gravel. Thanks for the great video!
So much of hard work and yet its so very satisfying when Meg prepares dinner everytime for the family. Youre a great team and i really enjoy watching 6our videos❤
En and Meg, thank you for showing how much we can do for ourselves during times of shortages, unknown futures and just plain old great homegrown foods. And I'm learning that potatoes and onions need to "cure" before they are ready and to store better. I love the family energy and fun little things kids do. Mine is moved 3 days away and I miss alot. Dinner was a wonderful thing, I'd try for salads as well to just lighten it up for my metabolism. Thank you❤❤
Growing onions wasn't as good this year as last for many people. We've had lot's of rain. The rain caused two of my potato containers to die. I was able to harvest and only 20 potatoes from the two small containers, the plants couldn't be saved. I have about 12 to 15 more conatiners to check. They're still alive, the rain didn't kill the potato greens. I'm hoping to keep the potatoes growing for at least another 2 months. Talk about a harvest on potatoes for y'all.....Nice!!! I borrowed your idea of using commercial grade bins to store your potatoes. I have to store ours in our home. Right now, I have them on my grow shelve which is in our office. I'm moving that shelving unit into our kitchen to hold the bins when we fill them. We live in a 1500 Sqft home, I have a very small kitchen...so space is sacred!!! I'd kill for a bigger kitchen. Y'all try to stay cool with all that heat.
A good project would be to build a large wooden box with shelves of mesh or slats, to gather your veggies in one more attractive place, out of sunlight/ more in the shade and out of any flies or dust.
idea: I use the sides of old cribs and staple on hardware cloth or wrap with screen and set them up on buckets to dry my onions, potatoes and nuts . your harvest look great !!!
I know that homesteading is hard and then to video your homesteading is even harder, but truly you guys to me help me get motivated to keep pushing forward. Love you guys God Bless
One of the boys needs to get on a washtub drum, another on a wheelbarrow and the baby on a dinner bell. You can have your own band!! :) I am one of the people who actually thought you grow everything you eat. We always did until I retired and we were always straight out - just like you and your family. :) Meg seems to be able to make loaves & fishes every day. As always, God bless you all and thanks for sharing!
Meg I have an incredible mash potato recipe. My Mother in low gave it to me. When you boiled and mashed the potato get some eggs separate the white. Mix yellow into the potato than beat up the white to hard peak and than fold it into the mash. Makes it so light fluffy and very yummy. Hope you like it.
It's funny how on chicken processing day the last thing you think of is eating chicken, but on potato harvesting day, we are definitely eating potatoes for dinner...lol. 😊😅
That's an awesome amount of potatoes.🥰 It's the best haul I have seen so far. Potatoes are delicious with anything no matter how you cook them. How long will this amount of potatoes last your family of 7 ??
I discovered y'all this weekend and love how everyone pitches in. You must have had them when you were very young because you look like you aren't much older than they are.
My potato planting consists of digging holes shovel deep, drop seed potato in and just water. Great success. The key is to make sure you cure them for a few weeks. I don't have a root cellar either and live in a mobile home and I have no issues.
I know that every family has a rebel, I was the one. But your rebel cut his hair and is wearing boots. Not trying to be mean, I was the long haired no shoes hippie kid in my family. :D Love you guys and all you do, every episode makes me smile for you.
Interesting that you add your flour to your already sauteed onions and garlic. I learned to do it the opposite way and add the raw onions to the browned flour in order to keep the flour from burning.
I harvested my potatoes today. While I have much more than I did last year, I waited almost too late and had several that were rotten and had to throw away. Seemed to be a lot of disease in the Yukons, but the Russets did very well. Very disappointing, but thrilled with what there is. Yeehaw!
Curious to know if you see the tall weed plant behind you when you were harvesting your potatoes? It's between the potatoes and the tree. The plant looks like lamb's quarter from what I can tell. My maternal grandmother who lived in Colorado fed it to her kids and I harvest it on our property here in Arkansas. It's considered a summer spinach. Is very tasty when steamed. You should google lamb's quarter and compare the leaves. If it is, let some go to seed and when new plants arrive in the spring, carefully dig them up and plant them in an area you want them to grow.
The trick with onions is as soon as the neck of the onion flops over pull them and then dry until the whole stem is crispy. Mine take about a month to cure. Same with garlic. I have garlic from last season that is edible yet. Also with garlic leave about 4-5" of stem when you trim. That keeps air out of the bulb.
I can most of my potato harvest. They store excellent, and make meal prep much quicker. Peel on or off, makes no difference. Most of the smaller potatoes get shredded and frozen.
We've got two pounds of green beans harvested from our planter every day. There are just two of us here at the house and my husband will only eat them fresh so we are giving away gallon bags of them to our friends and neighbors. What a haul of potatoes for your family! You have the best life!
I was just wondering why you don't plow them out with the tractor! And do you pull the dirt up to the potatoes after they come up to make a hill so they will make more potatoes !So times the potatoes will rot in the ground from being so wet and hot!
I’m thinking I need to move close to you guys, be a neighbor so I can come and help eat some of Megs wonderful food, she’s so creative and such a skilled cook, as always, great video! (Just kidding about the neighbor thing). lol
Potatoe storage,, Metal trash can dug down into a hole below frost line ,,need holes in bottom of trash can . Bone meal will create larger potatoes. Cheers
Good looking potato 's an nice looking corn I be doing some grilling ,,, some. Buttered onion"s ,,corn , some sweet ice tea , lol😊. Meg you make things look so good canning knowing my luck the jars would blow up ,,, an by the way the ipe blowing was COOL SOUNDING ,BOYS GREAT JOB YA HAVE A SAFE WEEKEND
I would love to have had your onion harvest. measly... mine were like golf balls. I planted them too close. Love and learn though, right? Dinner looked yummy.
Sclerotinia stem rot it's commonly found in potatoes across North America. The fungus thrives in high moisture areas with moderate temperatures below 85 degrees F
"I liked dinner," Buggy endorced, so you know it was amazing!

This Aussie fan thought that was a pretty good attempt at a didge sound. 😊
Agreed! From a fellow aussie... once the boys master rotational breathing- in through the nose as you blow out, and for the wicked 'bush sounds'- breathing back in through the didge, they'll be ready for corroboree! 🇦🇺

Most all they know are electronics..
Another day in the life of the Hollars. Thank you for sharing. 🌻🌻💕💕
Buggy is such a sweet kid! "Thank you for dinner." 😊
Wouldn’t those rotten ones possibly be the seed potatoes themselves? You folks are great! I enjoy watching the whole family working together. Pig food green b eans.
I thought the exact same thing! Happens sometimes especially if the seed potato was particularly large…
Yes, I always have a rotten seed potato. I had wire worms destroy my harvest this year. I'll try again next year. :)
I think the seed potato usually shrivels up rather than rot.
Exactly what I thought. It looks like the seed potato
@@loissaedder2214 - they get soft/shrivel as their energy is consumed by the growing potatoes and will subsequently rot if there is an abundance of rain... i think this year qualifies!
I love that you sit at the table and hold hands and pray.❤
You guys have a beautiful family. I love that you all work together and set a dinner as a family. So beautiful
I like diner she said... so sweet... and again it's so nice to see the whole family working together to harvest abundance.. enjoy
This is one of my favorite activities to watch your family do. Everyone is involved, even buggie. Side by side, shoulder to shoulder.

Your dinner looked fantastic, Meg! When I was youngI did not like mashed potatoes. My mom would put aside non mashed for me. I liked mine chunky. 😅
Beautiful Family harvesting their Crops ❤❤🙏
I can most of my potato harvest. They store excellent, and make meal prep much quicker. Peel on or off, makes no difference. Most of the smaller potatoes get shredded and frozen.
Thank you for the smile😊
Loved your Aussie didgeridoo feature! Thanks from this down under viewer..
Thats called an Alphorn/Alpin horn a didgeridoo is a much shorter and skinnier horn. More like the size of a clarinet.
Great harvest. Have a great day
Love those bins!! Would love to have a follow up in the spring to see how you like them!
We've got two pounds of green beans harvested from our planter every day. There are just two of us here at the house and my husband will only eat them fresh so we are giving away gallon bags of them to our friends and neighbors. What a haul of potatoes for your family! You have the best life!
So much food for the whole fam, love it!
I was just wondering why you don't plow them out with the tractor! And do you pull the dirt up to the potatoes after they come up to make a hill so they will make more potatoes !So times the potatoes will rot in the ground from being so wet and hot!
He side he didn't this year.
BEN, with a shocked look on his handsome face..."WHERE'S THE BEEF?"🤣
