***** About Living Traditions Homestead *****
Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out 2 new videos every week! Wednesday and Saturday. We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

Wow cant believe I am first today :) thanks to a one month old baby :)
Love your videos! You guys life are my goals!
Congratulations on your new baby❤
What an amazing intro with the music and zinnias!
It brought a smile to my face and peace and wonder to my heart!
Thank you so much!
Kevin's shirt cracked me up. Glad I'd already swallowed that mouthful of coffee when I saw it
Me too lol.
We don't get it. Can you explain it? Lol
I was wondering where he finds them all..lol
He does have some of the best ones I've seen!
@@rosebayer114 Yes, please!
You have fulfilled many dreams of the rest of us. Congratulations on all your hard work, and bless you for sharing your lives with us.
Agreed!
Amen!
They make me wish I could live my life over.
Hi Kevin and Sarah! It was a terrible year for the garden up here in NW MN. We are in a draught which started last fall. The snow fall wasn't enough to even do any plowing with the tractor. Even with daily watering, the garden failed, except for Tomatoes. I've been canned tomato sauce and dilling green tomatoes fill the pantry in the basement. My last batch of dilled green tomatoes are on the stove now. My new asparagus plants did survive, which is good. My taters...well none. I normally grow way too many potatoes, of which the extras go to food shelter programs or to those needing some help. My bees did a good job collecting nectar despite the lack of rain. Well, that about it here. -Bill
I would love to see a video on the Tabasco sauce!
Yes! That would be awesome!
I would love to see how you make Tabasco sauce, Sara!
I have enjoyed collecting the seeds from my favorite zinnias all throughout the season. I collected so many that I started snipping off the cut blooms and just let them fall. They are sprouting like crazy and are even beginning to bloom again.
I ordered some Southern Speckled Butter Beans this year and planted them for the purpose of increasing the number of seeds available for me to plant next year. I went from one small packet to all I could ever need in one season.
The greenhouse is looking great! I appreciate the update on what all y’all started in it. I’m sure many others do as well.
I started saving heirloom seeds back in 2008 and its a true miracle that one or 2 seeds will give enough for a garden next year! I started on my seed journey and heirloom journey all because I couldn't find a decent tasting tomato like I remembered from my childhood. My aunty gave me some seeds and boom there was that flavor(just plain old beefsteaks) well its kind of an obsession now lol.
Me too! Good bless
"Rooted in the Word"....will definitely keep on the right track! Our homestead/garden always has an abundance of zinnias, sunflowers, and giant marigolds. Great for pollinator attraction!
Yes on the sauce, we love all yalls videos
Tx I’m I’m

Love the greenhouse stuff. I want one.
I would love to see a Tabasco sauce making video, how fun!
We purchased our Texas homestead in July, and it was being leased by another farmer for hay. Now that he has all of his hay (two separate crops), and our home there is getting finished (hopefully move in by mid November). Soooooo…we have been planning, seed buying/saving, and reading. We have contacted some local farms for some hands on learning (a dairy and chicken farm; I have a pig farm on my radar I plan to contact also), which is exciting. There is one section of fencing that needs to be finished, and a gate that has to be moved. Plenty to do always, which is very encouraging! We have been planning this for approximately 15 years - we are thrilled!
Thank you for all of your ideas, encouragement, and how to videos.
Good luck Danielle, if you're only a fraction committed as Kevin & Sarah you'll be grand. I really hope your dreams come true ❤
@@kimbradley1292 thank you for your encouragement! It feels overwhelming most days, but mostly exciting for sure. We are taking it one step at a time, and building on each step.
Congratulations Danielle B! You will do well just remember there is always tomorrow, nothing is done today. Just work towards your goal a little each day. And take one day a week to rest.
Saved snow squarestem seeds for pollinators yesterday, started basil cuttings in small pots to winter over, saved seeds from my herbs for planting this spring. Guess what? Chicken squat, that's what. Every time I was excited about something and went to my mom and said guess what - she gave me that comback. Fun memory. Thanks. Moving my strawberies and runners to another bed and refreshing soil in my green stalks. Busy, busy - and waiting for yummy greens. Pulled a late sweet potato from my compost and as I tugged a little potato came up with the vine and I had sauteed sliced potato and sweet potato leaves for lunch with my fermented (in honey) garlic cloves for lunch SOOOO good. Great video today and appreciate this end of the garden jobs, also.
A wonderful homestead! So nice that you do all of your own gardening and harvest all your and prepare your own food!
nhìn vườn rau thích quá ạ
Beautiful FLOWERS SARA. Thank you and GOD BLESS.
Hi from the UK. I've decided to have a container garden in my front garden on the drive. Just bought a load of seeds ready to start in the new year and garlic to plant now. Also bought a load of canning jars and the ball book you recommended. Also bought a pressure canner that's getting shipped from the USA as canning doesn't seem to be a big thing over here. Thanks for the ideas and inspiration. Xx
Put your name on a list for an allotment. You will have to wait while though.
@@tenthousanddaysofgratitude my health isn't good enough to be walking to the local one. Once I got there I wouldn't be for for anything. I'll use the garden front for now then back as well when I can. Thanks tho x
This is the first year I ever grew zinnia's. I love them.
I would love to learn how to make Tabasco sauce! Thank you so much for sharing with us! ❤️
Love your t-shirt Sarah! Kevin, I love getting a chuckle from many of your t-shirts. I would love to see a video of Sarah making Tabasco sauce. I so look forward to your videos. Blessings from East Tennessee.
Hi Ann, I am also from East Tennessee, Elizabethton
She made a video about Tabasco a couple years ago.
I’m from East Tn to Lafollette
I would like to see you make tabasco. Thanks for all the videos you put out. I always wait (not so patiently) for Wednesdays and Saturdays.
First year growing zinnias. I planted then by my blackberries. We will have a place for them every year. I'm in Wisconsin and the birds have been getting the tops before I am able to harvest seed. It was lovely to see them by your garden. I know mine put a smile on my face every day🥰
My first year for zinnias and nasturtium s(which are eddible).
Tried borage but many died in the heat. Edible flowers and leaves.
Get a mesh bag and bag the flowers before the petals die. It may keep the birds from getting them.
You are such a help to everyone
This show is giving me so much pleaser, thank you! 🦊
I added a mini Highland. Now we are trying to prepare more storage space for hay. Im also getting ready to plant garlic, winterize the homestead and to clear the gardens out. So much to do! But oh so worth it.
These zinnia flowers have all been cross-pollinated so get ready for some new color combos and sizes next year!😎
Whenever I saw your zinnias I remembered my mother’s folks gardens. They are from east Alabama and they do a vegetable garden every year. They always plant zinnias in the middle of the garden. They will plant vegetables. For a few rows then a row of zinnias.
Good morning everyone!
Since you asked... s. Calif low desert zone 8 or 9. I have baby plants going of butterhead lettuce, Chinese cabbage, collards, parsley and cilantro, peas, and broccoli... A few fennel and dill. Minowase daikon are doing great and hope to harvest this month. So much more to plant! The Winters are usually so much easier to grow here. We got early rains twice now. Hoping it means the drought will let up . Thanking God for every drop of precious rain.
Oh! Planting a hill of wildflowers and bulbs... Just because. Several families can see it and hoping to bring a little joy come Spring.
you kiddo's are super.!! have a fantastic spring. God Bless...the old marine homestead..
those flowers are absolutely beautiful!!
Hey guys hoping you are safe from tornado .Glad you have underground shelter . Take good care and my prayers include your family.
I would love to see a Tabasco video. Thanks for sharing your time and hearts with all your viewers.
Born n Raised in Chicago. Before I left Chicago I always worked in Kenosha. If I still lived in Chicago I would of bought a farm up in Kenosha ❤️❤️❤️ Miss it so much,,,,
Thanks guys. 🙏🏻❤️
My Homestead is my backyard garden in a Suburban neighborhood. We are expanding the garden space for veggie growing and cut flowers this fall and winter seed saving is a top priority to! Thanks for sharing your day and Homestead with us
First time doing a fall, winter garden. So excited! Making a greenhouse to see how it all does. The two of you are so wonderful showing how to save seeds. It's so important. Bless You and Yours.
We are just starting to plant here in South florida. My pumpkins were doing really well but we got some heavy rains and they flooded. Replanting those.
We will soon have to say "Goodbye Garden, but we are hanging on for as long as possible! Congrats on your new growing space.
Sarah, please make All the Things, including your home made Tabasco Sauce!
The flowers are beautiful..
Love your shirt Sarah!! So appropriate. We don’t have a homestead and we live in a big city but have a big yard. I am growing outside (south Texas) cucumbers, tomatoes, radishes, kale, chard and bok choy all in tubs on my deck. I have lettuce growing in my Kratky jars inside under lights because it is too hot here yet. I bought a pressure canner this week and will start canning meat. I helped as a kid growing up but have not done it myself. I am familiar with pressure cookers and water bath canning. At heart I am a homesteader and look forward to your videos. We have had goats in the past and considered chickens but we are now 71 and buying an RV to travel so we don’t want to be tied down.
Y’all are amazing! Love watching you! God bless your family!
Thank you for sharing the Love of GOD with all of your viewers in your kind mannerisms. I look forward to more of video . Blessing bro
Sarah, those outside petals on the zinnias have seeds attached. Don’t throw them away! The flowers are beautiful!!! These are the same ones I planted this year. I also had a bunch come up that had fallen off and over wintered in my flower beds. I love growing food but the flowers make the hard work more enjoyable.
Blessings to you all 🙏🏻💗🌻
Sally,. I was wondering if those were seeds. Thanks for sharing your tip.
@@shirleyk623 You’re welcome ☺️ 🌻
Sarah! Love your t-shirt! Zinnias are one of my easy favorites. I never remove the dried petals as many times I saw seeds were still attached to them. I always waited until I was separating seed in the house later because I love them so much I wanted every single one of them! LOL
That's the first time I've ever seen okra growing. So that's what they look like.. Thanks for showing them.
Dreaming of the time these are abundant and huge. This!!! Cannot wait for our property to be cleared so we can pace off the planned garden space instead of just working with what we got now and make room for a winter growing greenhouse.
Good ☕️☕️ Morning Kevin & Sarah,so enjoy your channel.Your flowers are beautiful,the colors are so awesome.I had never seen the white zinnias before.👍😊👏
Love all your videos. You have inspired so many of us to plant and save .thanks for all you do.
I love to see different ways of seed harvesting. I didn't have any garden this year, but I've been saving seeds from the heirloom & other unknown varieties (hoping they germinate) of produce I buy, in hopes of having a garden next year. You two are right, buying seeds is never guaranteed year to year, especially with severe weather impacting crops & harvests. For many sweet pepper plants, I cut off the top of the pepper around the stem and leave the seeds on, then put a folded paper towel in the bottom of a brown lunch bag, set it inside, fold the top over, let it dry out. I label the bag with a sharpie the year & type of plant, & then keep adding the same type to the bag, like sweet green peppers, etc. They always dry nice, no mold. I save white response envelopes from junk mail, cut them in half, fold the cut edge over twice, tape it down, and I make my own free seed envelopes! 😉
I've heard of people collecting flower seeds by wrapping organza jewelry bags around flower heads to collect seeds. Has anyone here tried it? Sounds like a neat idea.
As always , thank you for another wonderful show. Can't wait to see the growing.
The greenhouse is so clean, I frikking love it!!
YES video on Tabasco Sauce
I love these videos it helps knowing that both of you do this daily and not just on the weekends ect...

Be patient with your parsnips. They take sometimes more than 2 weeks to germinate. Keep them moist and maybe cut a circle board to put weight on them. We put a board on ours in the garden, peaking under until they sprout. Take the board off at night to give the tiny plant overnight to harden off by morning. A tip given to me from a market gardener.💙
Love to see Tabasco sauce process. We've gotten most of winter crops started, still have okra and peppers and have started digging sweet potatoes. Been a pretty good year!
I live just up the road from you in Rogersville (Webster Cty) and you have very quickly become one of my favorite channels! Thank you for so much helpful information! I canned green beans a few days ago while watching you make ketchup. You all are living out a dream for me! I have my eye out for some property either here or over in Howell County. Keep on keepin on cause we’re all watching and learning!
I believe their old homestead is for sale, I hope I’m not mistaken, not sure how big Ya want yours
I’m sure it’s not. They are 2 counties over from me but not in the area I want to be in.
i never plant just flowers! I need to
You guys are awesome, keep up the good work. God bless you all.
Zone 6a and we are wrapping up the summer garden and now allowing for the cool weather crops to kick in with the cooler weather rolling in. Plan to plant my garlic soon as well.
Always interested in everything Sarah and you make with the plants. 😊
I adore your channel, GOD BLESS YOU
Hello from TN! We are winding down here.
We have some new Filbert trees (Hazelnuts), Mulberry trees, a Fig, a new peach tree and a Pawpaw tree to help pollinate a wild tree in our yard to get planted! I also splurged and bought myself some climbing Roses!
We are Going to add on to our main Chicken House. Thinking of putting our Ducks into a permanent house, and releasing them into the yard daily, instead of the Hoop houses, at least for the winter. Their Hoop houses are just SO messy. Unfortunately we built them a little bit too big to move daily! I couldn't possibly drag them!
We have ample seeds! I even managed to get the two paste tomatoes that you like so well! I'm pretty happy about having those! They look large and perfect for making tomato sauces!
Will be picking up Black Walnuts as soon as it stops raining long enough for me to do it!
Tornado like winds did structural damage one county away from us! We were lucky.
I still have 24 meat Chickens to process and I don't have a plucking machine! Just me, myself, and I !
I always look forward to watching your videos! GOD bless
Here in South East Finland we are planting garlic. The cloves should be planted before the frost so they get a good head start in the spring. Parsnip you can plant in october as well to be able to harvest them in late semptember following year. This year my parsnips got really big.
I love parsnips sautéed in butter 🥰 I got one of my sons hooked on them too
I'm just about to plant garlic here in the US (state of Michigan) and I didn't get parsnips planted this year but they are on my wish list for next year.
My aunt taught me to put a few bales of straw over them and in winter we can dig them for meals and after that first cold snap they become so sweet and tasty.
Sauted in butter is a favorite way to eat them but also a nice cream of parsnips soup with warm crusty bread and butter during a snow storm is another.
One of my favorites is parsnips but they don't grow we for me here in Michigan, USA.
Still picking peppers and green beans..started beans late this year because of the tomatoes and its worked out great...it was a relief when the tomatoes were done...I didn't want everything coming in at the same time...lots of bugs this year also and NO lady bugs at all..but all an all I had a terrific garden...
Thanks for teaching on seeds.
Everything in my garden is wrapping up for the year. Processed a lot of tomatoes this week and harvested seeds for next year.
We grew in pots this year just to save seed since we are in a transition period of moving. Every seed is potential food… which is life. Can’t wait to plant them next season on our new homestead. Thank you for all that you do ❤️
Yes! I did the same thing this year... I am now a widow but our dream lives on. The new gardens will have plenty of seeds... praise the Lord!😊💕🌻🐛
I’m currently in pots this season too! It is encouraging finding like minded, determined people!
@@marking-time-gardens I'm sorry for your loss & that your husband didn't make it to see your dreams come true. So glad you are able to carry on & make your families dreams come true.
@@denisewilson8367 Thank you for your kind words of sympathy and encouragement... I know that God still has a plan for me and He will see it through. I just turned 73 last week and feel like I have so much more to give yet. My husband and I lived on our first homestead together for over 50 years. Long story...LOL! Our prayer was to pass on what we learned to others and I by God's grace am still doing that. Blessings on your day! 😊🌻🐛
@@marking-time-gardens I am so sorry to hear about your husband. We too are not young chickens and feel we still have so much to do, give and share. God always has a plan. It’s not always the same as ours. It is always nice to know there are so many like minded still out there. Hugs and prayers to you on this journey 🙏❤️🙏 😄
Yes I would love to see you make some homemade Tabasco, Sarah and thank you and Kevin so much for sharing your awesome work and gardening tip with us.
Looks great. Hope you have a fine growing season in the greenhouse.
And dont forget to keep some of those dried beans and peas in the cupboard mason jars for winter soup mixes!
So exciting for fresh food all winter without going to the store for it!!
Here in northern WI finishing up the last of tomatoes, peppers and waiting on some beans to dry down. We still haven't had a frost which is amazing, but garden was planted late due to the weather and a destination wedding. I've changed the variety of tomatoes I grow due to your recommendations and they did wonderful. I've been gardening for 50 years and have still learned so much from your channel. Thanks so much for your hard work and taking the time to make videos to help educate. I've had a family milk cow in the past, have the chickens, ducks and a limousine based beef herd with all of them related to my sons old (13 yrs) limousine show cow. Again thanks. God Bless
So jealous!
I have had the worst 2 years of harvests in all my years of gardening! Not only dealing with limited sunlight and terrible soil, but now it’s squirrels and chipmunks completely destroying everything in my greenhouse.
It’s a frame greenhouse with a plastic cover. No way to keep them out. I don’t want to use poison or kill traps.
Do you have kritters in your greenhouse? How do you deal with them?
@@carriejones9890 A good idea for your pest problem is to put up a couple of owl boxes on your property. The owls will keep your pests down to a manageable number and are better than having cats to eliminate the problem because 🦉 won't use your greenhouse as a catbox😳
@@carriejones9890 We have cats that don't use the garden as a litter box due to the ground cover, they don't get into the raised beds either for some reason. And two blue heeler crosses that will hunt any little critter, and a hound that hunts the big ones. Don't have a green house yet, in the plans now that I'm retired. I don't ever use poison as I don't know where the poisoned bodies will end up, I also have chickens and ducks. Our cats stay by the machine shed, dogs won't allow them by the house.
Hang in there, sometimes its a slow process to get the soil amended. I'm fortunate to have a beef herd so I can use manure if needed, and compost chicken manure for a year.
Thanks for sharing with us!
God bless!
Hello to both of you. What great organization in the new greenhouse. It's going to be exciting to see which crops do well during your winter growing season. Good luck!! Be well.
Everything's looking great👍👍
The greenhouse is amazing. I'm sure this will be a huge blessing this winter.
I’m still harvesting artichokes, Swiss chard, yellow tomatoes, eggplant, and habanero peppers
Here in Abilene, Tx we are able to plant a fall garden. We harvested yellow squash , zucchini, tomatoes, black eyed peas, and butter peas yesterday. Still getting okra - both Clemson spineless and star varieties. Our tomatoes are covered with new fruit and blossoms!!
I don’t have a garden, but I love to hear you guys talk about yours. My family had a garden as I grew up in Tn. I love to see your Okra ,it is awesome. And to see flowers in your garden is just beautiful. Love, love your videos. God bless
We're wrapping up our garden in ME, zone 5a/b. Warm fall for us so far! I planted my first ever fall garden and hope to season extend with a low tunnel over one of my beds. And yes, seed saving is in full swing! There is something so satisfying about saving your own seed.
Love the red and white
you guys do a great job. we are planting fall onion and garlic up here in North east Ohio. I m recently retired and spending a lot more time gardening. Thanks for great videos you provide. very refreshing for us..
My contribution to my non-homestead today was that I put my old picnic table away. Not a homesteader, but I love watching your videos. I've learned a lot of stuff from you both. And I still make Kevin's bread!!
Our garden is all done. Oh my should have saved seeds. Love your channel.
Great indoor type garden.
Dollar tree is where i got all my flower seeds and they grew really well
I absolutely love your channel!!! I've been watching a few years now and I feel like I'm watching family. We don't miss a video. Thank you for bringing us along and teaching us so much. Many of your methods have worked so well for our homestead. God bless you both!
First real year saving seeds from most of the plants in my garden. I became ill and wasn't able to get my greenbean seeds b4 mold got them, but was successful with many other items. We planned on having our first fall garden, but still not strong enough. Always next year!
I thought it might be too late to plant anything, but after seeing your video I can see that it's not for certain things. That makes me so excited to plant some cool weather veggies!
Wow what Beautiful flowers good job you too hello 👋
I just love your videos. I have learned so much from both of you. Thank you and keep your knowledge coming.
Kevin's shirt is priceless
Yes to a video on making tabasco sauce, Sarah! I love peppers, so any videos you do with peppers is appreciated.
.... your flowers are just beautiful 💫 love the tips on seed saving too ... we too have been still getting peppers ! ! blessings to you both ... love your videos ❣️❣️
So impressive 👍. Watched the vid as it was being put up & it looked so empty🥴 but that has been taken care of.. thanks for sharing your hard work.
Beautiful beautiful flowers 🌸🌼🌺🌻
I got a Green Stalk vertical planter where I planted all my fall veggies. I have spinach, turnips, lettuces, cilantro, chives, and Russian kale.
First time seeing the garden since you planted
We are cleaning out too! Planted some rutabaga, carrots, collards, sweet peas, lettuce, radishes, and still have some fall pole beans. 😋
saved flower seeds for many years now. not much space for veg but do 2 big pots of runner beans and a few strawberries and tomatoes. love watching your growing and preserving.
OH MY GOSH KEVIN, I LOVE YOUR SHIRT!!!
