A suggestion for shredded zucchini is shredded freeze dried zucchini as a thickening agent for meat loaf, allows for no bread crumbs , oatmeal or crackers. We love it and it adds nutrients too.

We can hear you just fine over the AC and canner. Do your thing and be comfortable! 😊😊

2 things- 1. I have found it very helpful to use a paper grocery sack to through my freeze dried herbs in (especially oregano) shake it around vigorously and the leaves pretty well fall off the stems. 2. I’m sure you’ve done lots of things with your celery leaves but incase you haven’t thought of it I like two things in particular. One, freeze them and add when making chicken stock. Two, freeze dry and make celery salt. Blessings to you!! My kitchen looks like yours right now 👏🏻

Jam looks yummy. To reduce the amount of foam, add about a half teaspoon of butter. Your kids must be very good at occupying themselves for you to get so much done in one day.

Your dedication to preserving food for winter, from garden to pantry, exemplifies foresight and resourcefulness. Your commitment to food security ensures a bountiful season ahead, reflecting deep care for sustainability and self-reliance. And I am Floating Village Life

One of my favorite ways to preserve celery is to freeze dry and blend into a powder, even the leaves. It brings a WONDERFUL flavor to soups and broths and is a great way to use up a ton of celery and not let the leaves go to waste. I enjoyed seeing what all you did with all that lovely food! Great job!
-
Kelsey you are a joy and a pleasure, full of information to a new harvester as myself! I hear your voice, perhaps a sore throat, take care of YOU. I always love to hear your children (Grant) in the background. To have your children at your feet, they are seeing how their Mom cares for her family. You inspire me. Blessings.

My grandkids favorite brownies are zucchini brownies

Wow!! I watched you harvest ‘and’ preserve! What a treat you are! And a ‘very hard’ worker…thank you for sharing your life with us! Blessings to you and yours🙏🏻…
-
All your recipes look fantastic!!!! Thanks for letting us know what zone you’re in & where in the country you live…we get a better picture of where you homestead & what grows good where!!! Subscribed!!!😊

What a beautiful thing to see all your efforts ready to be put on the shelves. I have been wanting to give the mock pineapple a try after seeing you do it. Last years zucchini was an epic fail so I’m hoping this year it grows better. I do have a bag or two of shredded zucchini in the freezer and I think I’ll pull those out and make some muffins today. You’re doing an amazing job of caring for your family both in the present and looking towards the future. God Bless you friend. Enjoy the weekend. PS is there anything better than when hubby steps in and helps with the dishes after a long day of preserving or meal prepping? Well done Matt!

The raspberries mixed together make a deep, beautiful, color!

Great job! Val C ❤️🙏🏻

New to your channel. Thank you.

Q:: What is your 'take' on the No Cook Freezer Jam method of preserving Jams?.... smashed berries, add pectin, stir for 3 minutes, put into jars, throw in freezer? Taste wise, we really like it...and it makes short work of Jam Day!
-
I have the freeze fresh book and I always forget to look in it for ideas so thanks for the reminder.
-
You could add in 1/4 cup of kale powder to your recipe. For added health benefits.
