The Earliest Harvest We Can Remember | Homestead Vlog | July 1, 2024
Today we are getting up our potatoes, the vines are dead and if we leave them they could possibly rot or sprout. This is the earliest either of us remember our potatoes being ready! We are a little concerned with them keeping throughout the heat, but we will do the best we can! Tonight for supper we are having simple baked chicken legs, leftover green beans with new potatoes, stewed squash and FRESH corn!! We are so thankful for our beautiful potato harvest!

    Yummy 😋 when I was able to still go camping I cooked like this whether we was way in the woods or sitting beside our favorite lake. I miss being able to do this so much it was always such a good time with our sons and usually their friends . GREAT MEMORIES 😊

    Also had really bad cucumber beetles this year to the point I keep me a small bottle of alcohol out near my garden and I just pluck them and put them in.😂 And y’all weren’t lying about the wet and cooler spring this year but the cut off and heat came super fast out of nowhere! Mighty strange this year!

My advice to to all young Men is find you a girl that can make Deer Meat and gravy and cat head biscuits and you will have someone that will stick with you and you will enjoy many of life’s greatest times. Just my two cents worth. I promise you Andy is one happy man. A great wife and two beautiful Children. This is what it’s all about.

    That’s a truck load of goodness right there. You do know the breed and the way you raise them makes them so much better than one you buy. Some love put in them bags. I remember my Grand Pa told me that one year he did his hog killing and it got too warm and all his got skippers in them and had to throw them away and that was devastating when it was your Pork for the year and you had all the feed and time invested. After that he would take it and pay to have it kept in a walk in fridge. Couldn’t take that chance again!

    Vegetable, Canola and seed oils are soooooooooo bad for the human body. We stopped using them when we discovered this. We cook with Avocado oil for our neutral oil, olive, butter and coconut oil - that's it. We'd use lard if we had animals. Thank you for spreading the word cuz I don't think that many people have woken up to the evils of processed oils in this country. Love, love, love your channel!
