    Good evening. Did you know you can grow popcorn from the organic non-GMO popcorn you buy at the store? I tried it this last spring and have to tell you I had 100 percent germination. There were at least 400 kernels per ear. I dried the cob out for about a week and tried popping the corn. I have never tasted such delicious fresh popcorn. All kernels popped.

    No animals, but we grow citrus, blackberries, strawberries and blueberries. Apple trees to be planted next year. We are extending the garden for another 6x4 raised bed and 2 round raised beds of 2x2. I can add more grow bags for all the tomato cuttings I wont be able to toss, more food! We have cut back on grocery store trips. We buy more from farmer's co-op and local Mom and Pop country markets. Bought another freezer this year.

    Even if you went to the store once in a blue moon, here and there, you are still way ahead of the game ....of course, serious eyeball to every ingredient in what you're buying. And, learning to do the homemade way on dairy products is key.

    • @katie7748

  • @tinatippin5705
    @tinatippin5705 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +23

    Today, I can't see a year as feasible for us. However, cutting back is very practicle. I think a mindset shift is in order for us. This is a great opportunity to evaluate what and how much we need. We can't produce our proteins, nor can we grow and store enough produce. But there are definately places for improvements. I accept your challenge to the degree we are able to practally.

My "preps" are in good shape... Im fixing to have surgery and will be laid up fir a good minute. I Shouldn't need much beyond milk and occasional salad veggies if i want them! Come Jan 1st ill track my grocery store spending just to See how Low i can go! Then plan what i need to do better next Summer.

    Great thoughts! Part of our self sufficiency is to eat what we have. What is still living in the garden, what is aging on the shelves. I’m making a soup today with canned and dried veggies, etc. So excited to do just what you are doing, except instead of ordering we trade with another, larger farm in our area. It’s tight now because the goats are dry and chickens are on strike for now.

    Was just talking about this with my granddaughter this morning. A year might be too much, but I will challenge myself to six months and already have my planting schedule in my 2025 calendar to grow a lot more veg. Was planning on learning how to do more dairy products this year anyway, but I don’t have a cow so I will just buy milk from a local farm and work on my own yogurt, cheese, sour cream, ice cream and butter. Challenge (partly) accepted Mrs. H! It’s certainly worth a try!

But I do have plant lights and an aquarium I put them in lined in reflective foil. I wish I had sun in my home but we only have a few south facing windows...I dream of a sunroom! :)

    I love my dairy cows. Making cheese has a learning curve but I'm working on it. If you have a favorite brand of sour cream, check the ingredients. If it's a cultured cream and doesn't have thickener you can add a couple of tablespoons to a qt of cream and let it sit out for 24hrs. Just keep doing that when you get low. I pull out the scoops before we use it so it doesn't get contaminated. It freezes well and still works. You can do the same with yogurt.

I hope things go better for you next time :)

    Good luck with the Azure standard I was going to order 50lbs of hard white wheat berries and there was none on their online store and I couldn't get a answer if it was temporary or they were not going to carry anymore. I did get a email saying it might be a couple of months before they had anymore. I canceled the rest of my order because it was nothing on there I really needed my main reason to order was wheat berries. I was sort of bummed I had just got my gal mylar bags and my 02 absorbers. We usually just use quarts for freeze dryer things. But I had decided to do them in the smaller bags after listening to your video where you forgot to reseal your wheat berries and got weevils in your berries. Just check now they have hard white but no soft white for Jan. pickup.

      To add on, I DEFINITELY think doing a 3 month would be better for us, that way I could still feel good about having good stock in case of an emergency! We are not on farmland, nor do we have animals. We do have a decent garden though.

    Can you do a video on the suggested grains. I already make my own breads from flour i get at the Amish store. But, I just bought a mill and want to mill my own flour and cornmeal

    My LaMancha dairy goats keep me in dairy except when they are preparing for their next lactation. Each one gives 1 gallon or more per day. I have my own chickens for eggs. Meat rabbits for meat. Storage is limited but always trying to increase my options. Azure Standard is good but the past few months keep changing the date/time of delivery.

    Yeast can be stored in the freezer too. SAF instant yeast comes in a nice vacuum sealed brick.

    This is awesome! I may try a month at the time until I am stocked and use to it.

    If anyone could do a year without buying groceries...it would be you two! :) But honestly, it's out or reach for most folks. Only those who grow their own meat, dairy, and produce (including sugars of some sort) are truly self sufficient except for fuels. At the peak of gardening season is the best for us (just country folks not homesteaders anymore) when we don't have to buy produce. If you live country you get used to shopping once a month, but that's still shopping. With this inflation we cut corners wherever we can and eat less. My husband said no more chickens due to the cost of feed...so we even have to buy our eggs. I have hope for 2025 to be a better year for all. You are our homestead hero Mrs H. :) ps: *shopping bulk is still shopping*. lol but it's smart and having a pantry last a year is even smarter.

    HOMESTEAD IN THE WOODS WILL TAKE YOU UP ON YOUR CHALLENGE!!! I talked about it with my husband and we will start on January 1st! I have no doubt we can do it but my husband is "concerned" he won't like it. He just wants to make sure we are stocked up on his snacks before we start. LOL I just finished reorganizing and doing an inventory of my pantry, but I need to look at it from this perspective and stock up between Christmas and New Years day. I'm going for 1 year.

    The security of running to the store will not longer be used. You can do it, our ancestors did it for years. I'm learning from you guys ❤

    Although I don't have a homestead yet, this is something that I would definitely like to do when I eventually have one. Constantly having to run to the store is incovenient and time consuming. It also costs money to get to the store and back if it's not within walking distance.

  • @robinjones828

    Good for you! We live on 3/4 acre and rarely go to a store. You can do it easily!

    I'm not ready to do it yet because I need to have dairy available on the homestead. We are starting to prepare for milk goats (one or two) and then I'll be ready. I'm looking forward to your adventure.
