Azure Standard Haul - January 2025
We are on a journey of switching to organic, natural, bulk foods. Azure Standard has helped us slowly switch over a lot of our most used products, including flour, oats, cane sugar, soaps, and more. See what we purchased for our holiday baking and some organic treats for the kids. Ready to start your transition to clean ingredient cooking? See our blog for more information.

Homestead Acreage | We Haven't Shared the Whole Truth Until Now
Переглядів 2,3 тис.2 місяці тому
How much acreage do you have? How much land do you need to homestead? I hate these questions for a couple of reasons, so let's discuss! (Plus the answer to the question we have avoided on our channel.) We are expanding our beef herd and have some new additions to show.

Our Garden Froze | Time to Plant Garlic

When is a good time to plant garlic? The fall! Since garlic is a bulb, it does best after overwintering, and planting in the fall gives it the best start in the spring. Let's talk planting, fertilizing, and overwintering garlic, along with some other winter prep jobs we are working on here on the homestead. Any questions?

EASY Step by Step Guide to Canning Peaches
If you bury it it won’t stay on, so won’t the stock tanks freeze?
If the water supply lines freeze, or the power goes out, it will cause the stock tank to freeze up. This only happened once last year and I was able to thaw the lines and get things running again pretty quickly. Burying the lines does not increase the odds of freezing, it can actually provide more insulation, but it does make it difficult to thaw if they happen to freeze up. As a safety precaution, I do have a tank heater installed on the stock tank, but have never had to use it yet🤞
put bungee cords along the front of your jars,
This is a very informative video. We are thinking of starting our own. We live in Southern Missouri. Thanks for the video.
@@Lonnie-z9c Thanks for watching!
I have whipped my strawberry jam into whipped cream before for French toast and it was delightful :)
@@zoesway2208 That sounds amazing!
Great video. 💜 you're doing a wonderful job.
Loved your little helper today.
New subscriber here. Hello from southern Wisconsin. For the pickled peppers I use them to make Mississippi pork roast. I also can Mississippi pork for fast food such as tacos, nachos or bbq pork sandwiches.
I've got a venison roast out for tomorrow and I think I'll give this a try. Thanks for the idea!
New subscriber! Loved watching this and Azure is si cute! Sorry to hear about your cow.
Thanks for subscribing!
Thank you for all the information!
New subscriber here! We are also doing a no spend challenge and pantry challenge for the New Year and are documenting in UA-cam as well! Great pantry selection!!
We do the same. Bulk grain and more. We love it
Love finding a fellow Wisconsinite homesteading, canning, doing the pantry challenge, and all the things!
I found you by searching pantry challenge. I am so excited to watch your previous video’s. Did you say you sell simmering pot mix’s?
@teresameek668 Thank you for watching! I did have holiday simmer pot mixes. Dried oranges, dried cranberries, cinnamon sticks, and rosemary. 🥰 They sold out quickly!
@ will watch for spring one’s.
I am so sorry about your milk cow, Lorelei! Have you talked about what happened to her on here? I’m sorry if I missed it.
@skoeplin1 Thank you. ❤️ I've only mentioned it briefly. She went down on the ice when we were having warmup/freeze cycles in December. We got to her quickly but she passed shortly after. The vet believes she broke her hip and possibly severed an artery in the fall. It was very unexpected.
Oh my goodness! I’m so sorry that happened!😢
Enjoyed the video 😊
I love azure!
Just found your channel. For the jams I thought of homemade “pop•tarts” or thumbprint cookies
Your pantry looks great. I love the idea of using the cowboy candy brine for pork chops! Thank you for sharing ❤.
New subscriber, we are doing the Pantry challenge Jan-March we have so much to work through. I decided this year to allow 20 bucks per week for fresh items. I see so many people participating this year. It's going to be fun!!
Thanks for subbing! It's great to see so many people participating this year!
Ground beef and pickles
Where did you purchase those shelves? Love the size of them. New viewer what state do you live in?
We are in northern Wisconsin. I got my shelving from Ace Hardware. They are AR Garage Shelving, also called rivet shelving. I was going to link some on Amazon but most have additional shipping so best if you can find them locally.
Where did you purchase those shelves? Love the size of them. New viewer what state do you live in?
Enjoyed the pantry tour 😊
Pickled peppers are good on a beef roast in the crockpot
Make strawberry jelly rolls. (Like cinnamon roll but use cream cheese and jam.)
I’m soo sorry to hear about your cow 😢 loved your video. You’re doing a fantastic job
Just found your channel ! ☺️
I tried to can corn a few times but it's always bad when I opened it up. I don't know what I did wrong. Now I leave it on the cob and freeze. We love it
Strawberry muffins ♥️
Maybe those pickles you canned with lime
Yes!
Beautiful pantry! Congratulations!
Well done, Lady! Looking great!
Ugh, I missed the peach truck when it came to town, I wanted to can peaches again this year 😭 yours look amazing, great job!
I dont have any advice but i want to say you are doing a damn good job! I wish I was close enough to offer a helping hand for labor or assist in any way i could. It looks like a long job with a lot of work and research but i think you are going to be happy with your results. The barn is in good hands❤
The person who did the "sloppier mortar work" on the outside, watching this like😮😢
You know how you just need a tbsp or so of tomato paste but have to open a whole can-even that small one-then find a need for the rest or lose it in the fridge and find it all moldy? Yeah-well I got tired of buying the tubes-pricey, messy and they get lost too-so I freeze dried several cans, powdered it and put it in a mason jar. Omgoodness!!! Game changer! I’ve done this now with tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, and diced tomatoes. Never have to open a can and not use all of it again! Whatever I’m making with a tomato product is richer in flavor as well. One of the best ideas for using my freeze dryer for everyday use!
Thank you! 🌿💚👵
I love your new pantry. I haven't made blueberry syrup, just peach, apple and pear. I will have to try it. Good luck on the challenge.
Do you find that your shelves have sagged at all?
@sarahschlosser1203 They do sag a bit between support bars with all quarts. They aren't loaded over their weight rating though and the supports are close. I was more concerned with our wire shelving as they were starting to sag quite a bit.
My main rule is that I can only buy fresh dairy products and basic vegetables. I only buy what I need for a week, so I can work through the pantry and freezer stuff easier.
I use pickled peppers on sandwiches. They are particularly good on fried egg sandwiches.
@@wvwow-sn1tu That's a great idea. We will have to try it!
As I am well prepared (with many of our proteins from your farm) and our gardens - we are going to try the #threeriverschallenge! Wish us luck! Cheers to a wonderful 2025!
Great looking pantry. My Grandma would be proud of you. I hope you and your family have a happy new year!
Thank you! We appreciate it! Happy New Year!
Good Job!! Thanks for sharing!!
When you label your shelf, does a magnet stick to it? You could get some magnets and stick to cardstock or some type of erasable or laminated paper and then you could move it around if needed
This is a great idea. Thank you!
Old
Bossy little lady, lol
Hot enough it’ll only take once
i live near green bay and have a barn from 1903 that needs help. any advice? its massive
@jenniferg1482 First step is to find out if you have any water or drainage issues and address that first. Roof, gutters, grading away from the barn, etc. As far as repointing, prioritize doorways, windows, and corners that need work because they will be the first areas to collapse. Then just take it one section at a time. It's a lot of work, but worth it!
Looking forward to next season’s chickens! Thanks for sharing your plans.
IN winter time you use wood and little coal, Summer time you use gas from your own chicken manure or all all animal manure to make low pressure Methane gas piped to your little gas cooker for summer time delights, strawberry shortcake anyone?
