Hi - the new opening sequence is great, giving you the credit you deserve. This morning’s slow, calm and inspirational beginning is wonderful. I could feel the morning “magic” that God gifts us. Thank you. Blessings!
Love all your videos….you’re an inspiration, even though I just have a regular house lot in southern Alberta. Love the Scripture from Psalm 46. 💕 God bless you all.
It all looks so calm and organized! But, if you have watched Living Traditions, you know sometimes it's a bit chaotic at times, and gets messy...but over the years, it has slowly dialed in to a very nice picture! You two certainly have made good decisions this last year. Yes, God had his hand on your decision making process. Grow on!
I have watched almost every video LTH has put forth & I think they are one of the least chaotic, most thought out & helpful channels you will ever watch. From the beginning Kevin & Sarah have showed us skilled, well thought out projects & processes. They left corporate America & transitioned into a self sufficient lifestyle debt free . Farming is hard work, perseverance & having a great deal of flexibility when things don’t go as planned. Yes, farming can be chaotic at times with all the “ balls in the air”. Of all the channels I watch for entertainment or to learn from, I look to them when it comes to making serious, well thought out decisions because I know they will use their brains to think through the process.
These 2 comments right here make all of our work worth it…the work on our homestead and on UA-cam. We cannot express enough gratitude for what you both have said today. Thank you so much.
Absolutely love your channel it has been so helpful and gives me hope one day i can get to even a 1/3 of this! My cousin is doing the same thing i know it can be hard work but its a true love and passion. Keep up the wonderful work! Sarah i made your picante sauce and we absolutely love it! l@LivingTraditionsHomestead
@@debm3518 I made her picante sauce not long after she put that video out. It really is the best I have ever had and I will definitely make it again when I run out. ❤❤
I grow Carolina Reapers, just one pot every year. My hot sauce is 4 little peppers with over a pound of jalapenos and a couple habaneros. All that makes 2 quarts of hot sauce that my spice loving husband says tests his limits. This year I gave the second quart to our pastor since at the last chili cook off he sat there and ate that sauce with chips, much to my shock since everyone else about hit the deck after trying it. Dilute those ghost peppers like crazy and it will be great. I like that opening sequence. We're aiming to start that ourselves in a few years but at least starting with chickens next year. Keep it up!
My hubby and I have watched y’all on this journey for years. Unfortunately he went home to heaven a few years ago. But as I watched this I was sad that he couldn’t watch with me and see all this beauty and blessing God has bestowed on yall and your homestead. ❤ I praise His Holy name for all that He is doing for you and through you. 🙌🦋
I like taking the Tabasco peppers, putting them in apple cider vinegar, and using the vinegar on my mustard and spinach greens. Loved watching Sarah chuckling in the background while you were telling the pepper story. You two have an awesome spread, and so well-maintained. Sure can tell a lot of thought and love has gone into it.
God has blessed you Kevin and Sarah in your marriage, family and homestead. Like your t-shirts. Also, like how Kevin is telling his story about eating the hot peppers, while Sarah is trying so hard to contain her laughter. Lol.
This Summer I grew 1 Armageddon pepper plant which produced tons of peppers. It measures 1.2-1.3 million Scoville units. I very carefully cut one open just to harvest the seeds and even with being so careful it maced me, I couldn’t breathe. Even later in the shower as soon as the water came down over my head the steamy shower filled with hot pepper mace and I felt like I was going to pass out. Hot chilis are no joke! I have no idea what I’m going to do with my bountiful harvest so I’ll keep watching to see if you come up with a plan for yours. BTW if you or anyone wants some Armageddon seeds let me know🥵
I’m in central Texas and sometimes we hit triple digits in the summer. When that happens all my plants seem to stall out. Once the temps drop they’ll pick up again and begin producing, thankfully!
Same here in Phoenix area. I have an abundance of peppers in late spring - lots of fresh eating and a variety hot sauces. When it's really hot, I get a lot of peppers but they are small. When temps get into the low 100s, I prune them back and before long they bring on a new flush of foliage and lots more large peppers. The plants keep producing through the winter unless we get a hard frost (which rarely happens where I live). I had one pepper plant that was 2+ years old but it will be pulled this fall because it has given me all the peppers it can.
@@FlawedNForgiven wow! We do get a hard freeze here so nothing will survive I think. I have had tomatoes survive the first freezing temps because I was just one night! 😂 Next day temps got back up in the 70’s then rest of the week was in low 80’s I believe. The frost killed everything else but the cherry tomato plant bounced back within a few days! 😁
If you want a suggestion for what to do with your excess hot peppers, I dehydrated our extras ( do NOT do this indoors!!!!!) then ground them and added the powder to our birds' feed (chickens, geese and ducks as well as wild birds) the hot peppers kills parasites and the birds love it... the hot pepper powder also convinces squirrels that they want nothing to do with the birds' seed.
Love watching your channel again! You’re doing great with such a beautiful farm, gardens, animals, etc! God is so good and I’m very happy you’re doing so well! Great job guys! I really love your shirt Sarah, beautiful!❤❤❤❤❤
The pepper harvest looks amazing! You probably need a mask to turn the ghost peppers into powder 🌶️ The beef cows were keeping an eye on your drone. It captured some really great footage. ❤ Nice to see all the animals today 😊
My cayenne & jalapeños here in Phoenix were always prolific. I couldn't consume them all. My large family here were always so happy to get them. Unfortunately, l moved to Scottsdale, & can't have a garden. God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻
I sure enjoyed watching this video. So glad you folks moved to Missouri and have been able to achieve your dreams and see them come true for you and your families. You all are truly blessed. Thanks for sharing with us all these years and may they continue until death do us part. Fred.
❤Missouri Mornings are SO BEAUTIFUL!! (I've Lived Here ALL of My Life! THE OPENING WAS PERFECT, Especially with the BEAUTIFUL Herfords!! ❤ I love Watching You Kevin & Sarah & have Since Your Move to MO & Your 1st Homestead! I loved the Story Kevin..I can't eat Peppers.. but I Love Learning! The Pigs are Sure Growing..GOD BLESS YOU ALL ALWAYS 🙏 & Keep Sharing and Pray All is Well !!
🌺Such a beautiful and peaceful morning you both got to share with us, thank you so much, you know it brought tears to my eyes. God has truly Blessed all your hard work thru the years, and Your faithfulness to Him and the stewardship you’ve shown and developed thru your lives is such a testament. Thank you for all this great info on the peppers, I love peppers. I bought a few new varieties from Baker Creek for next yr from watching you, I will probably try a few more after this video. Thank you!
I live in Gilbert, AZ and had a jalepeno and poblano plant that were giving me good harvests. I actually have had them both for 2 summers now and I thought the poblano was going to die last summer as it didn't look healthy. It came back this spring snd i got a lot of nice poblanos from it. Sadly, it died in the last month. Jalapeno is still alive, so i am hoping it gives me more jalapenos. Yes, gardening in the Phoenix area is brutal!
We live in the Arkansas Ozarks and canned salsa all day yesterday due to a wonderful pepper crop this year! Mark and I love your show and we learn so much from you both! We cant wait to meet you iin person!
Dear friends, I started growing in tubs after seeing one of your videos in 2020. It solved so many of my problems in the far NW corner of Wa State where we have way more rain than sun. And I have almost no soil because of glacial cement here on the flank of a volcano. And whole yard is a weave of huge pine and oak roots. Can't dig much more than an inch. So the tubs solve my water problem, my inability to turn compost into this glacial stuff. AND tubs being raised AND black helps with warming my soil in spring. I put rounds of branches in bottom to help retain moisture during the 2 months we have little rain, but some sun. That saved my garden during forest fires and high heat periods when it was unsafe to go outside and water. Thank you for inspirations! ❤
Hi, I am in Redmond, WA. In dealing with our dry summer ends, add a teaspoon of Soil Moist to the middle layer in your tubs. It is a polymer crystal which absorbs water and releases back to roots. Watering refills them again. I use only steer manure to start and grow my seeds and plants, gives good nutrition for plants to grow. I have gone to 2' high raised beds for all my gardening.
Beautiful property! Awesome informative videos. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. I’ve been following you for years and learned quite a bit from both of you. God bless ❤
I named my American Shetland pony Big Dash-a-Tabasca. I got him when he was 9 months old and Dash was a spicy rascal. He went on to be a great show pony! Seventeen years later he’s my sweet buddy. I enjoyed learning about so much about peppers 🌶️ in this great video.
Hello. I loved your intro. We moved from the Phoenix area last year to Michigan. I grew up in MI and have been out west for over 30 years. It was always disappointing to try and grow vegetables there. But now we love it here in MI and grow more than we could in AZ. God bless you guys.
I have been with you guys from the beginning. I don't comment very often, but you both definitely are well deserving of a happy, calm life. I think you have found it, your homestead is so beautiful and a paradise for silence and God's beauty. God bless 🙏
Kevin, your stories about the jalapeño peppers is so funny, and even more so that you can laugh about it now. But, the icing on the cake, so to speak, is Sarah laughing about it in the background. 🤣 Great video, as always, Kevin and Sarah. ❤️
Such a beautiful morning on the farm. Kevin's story was great and the look on Sarah’s face was priceless. 😅 I fermented Datil peppers a few years ago. They were awesome.
❤ wonderful! It has been a great year for your homestead. We also left Phoenix, AZ 8 yrs ago. We landed in North Augusta, SC. **I wanted to share a great tip with you two** If you ever rub your eyes after touching peppers and your eyes start to burn use Sarah's hair (not wet hair) to rub your eyes thoroughly. Continue to rub until the burning stops. I believe the keratin in the hair has something to do with the relief. My mother taught us this as kids. Enjoy those yummy peppers. You are both very blessed. Thank you for sharing this video. I enjoyed it very much❤
Hi, I live in Mesa, Az. I grew tomatoes and zucchini in 1985. I had an abundant harvest. Today would be a totally different story. Our 100 degree weather now starts in April! It is so much warmer now than when you lived here. It makes me sad that our growing season is even shorter . I don’t garden anymore, but I love watching your channel.
Install a vertical trellis to partially shade the garden and grow food in a waffle shape soil instead of a hill. Grow herbs in the waffle around your plants to shade the ground and retain the moisture. Research how the Native Americans grow food the desert.
Shade cloth makes all the difference! I'm using 30% and my plants love it! I'm in Bakersfield, CA. It's not quite as extreme as AZ, but we get 6 months of hot dry summer up to about 115°. No more sun scald on my tomatoes! You might want 40% shade cloth with your higher temperatures.
I grow an abundant garden here in AZ. I have learned a lot from a master gardener in Mesa that has a youtube channel called "growing in the garden". Maybe check it out and try again this fall.
Oh Kevin, You cracked me up, but Sarah in background smiling really had me LOL!!!! I feel your pain. I LOVE SPICY, BUT!!!!! We took a new variety to me, camping a few years back. We were making brats, so I roasted a big long pepper and put on my brat, I was in the middle of saying, yum this is delis.......when I about had a heart attack. LOL Seriously, it was painful. My mouth was on fire, my heart hurt, and I was doing everything to not throw up. My poor husband was trying to help, but nope, nothing. ughhhhhh I can laugh now. But believe, it wasn't the first time and won't be last. So right there with you Kevin!!! :) BEAUTIFUL crop of peppers!!!
Beautiful harvest. Great job you two, you are my favorite teachers. I am older than you, and have been gardening since I was about five with my dad. Still love it! In Wichita, Kansas. And next year I will have pepper plants like your trees, I promise.
I also love growing peppers. I have been obsessed with super hot peppers for many years, although I’m not that guy who can just eat them fresh. I have a seed collection that has over 250 varieties of peppers, but Ghost peppers are my favorite super hot. My favorite way to eat them is as pepper flakes added to white chocolate with sea salt, absolutely amazing! I also like powdering them and adding sparingly to seasonings, and ghost pepper pickles are fantastic, just poke a hole in one or 2 ghost peppers with a knife and add to a large jar of pickles and let them sit for a few weeks.
What a fantastic beginning to your video - praising our precious Lord in the glory of His gorgeous sunrise. Thank you. In these times of trouble we have to lift Him up & praise Him.
I love your opening to this video! The Bible verse (a favorite of mine), the overview of your homestead, the two of you walking out to start your day-all wonderful!
Kevin and Sarah, I am really surprised with your ability to grow/harvest such prolific peppers that you haven't ever grown the sweet salad peppers. If you have I wasn't aware of it. Love your channel, many blessings to you and yours from another Phoenician!
The intro moved me to tears. God is so good. ❤
Me too. It touched my heart.
Yes god is good. Amen
So good!
@@debbiealtman5373God
Me too, so beautiful!
Thank God for the Abundance!
Absolutely!
This is soo nice to see! Beautiful ❤️
Beautiful peaceful video.
It was such a beautiful morning but also a neat and organized farm. Well done, Sarah and Kevin.

We love the panoramic views of your farm before the work starts.
Watch the video again. When you are starting the story the smile on her face is priceless...
As many has shared I too have to express the same. Beautiful beginning to today’s video. Thank you ❤
Thank you, for giving your animals a nice Life. It matters.
You are so kind

Wow what a lot of peppers to pick. You will have all the hot sauce you need. Just don’t eat too many. Hearts and flowers coming to you. ❤️💐
Yes, thank you
Beautiful homestead ! God is so good.
Beautiful! Thank you for the reminder about Psalm 46:10 and the terrific music. Thanks for your always positive videos. May God bless you both always.

Pepper plants look amazing. Thank you for. God's blessings to you and your family

Yes! Lord willing!
My husband and myself grew Tabasco peppers along the side of the house and they were beautiful. We made sauce and called it (ADABADOYOU SAUCE)😊😅😂
😂 love it
I had to watch the beginning twice. It was exactly what my morning needed. God bless!

I also like powdering them and adding sparingly to seasonings, and ghost pepper pickles are fantastic, just poke a hole in one or 2 ghost peppers with a knife and add to a large jar of pickles and let them sit for a few weeks.
What a beautiful and peaceful opening segment! I don't recall you just doing a quiet scenery moment like this before. Please do more!💕
Hey I get up at 5am just to be out at sun up. Yes showing the world that there is a beautiful real out there. Good going, you all got this.
What a fantastic beginning to your video - praising our precious Lord in the glory of His gorgeous sunrise. Thank you. In these times of trouble we have to lift Him up & praise Him.
Beautiful. You’re living my dream.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I like the story telling and talking as you work. Good filming style for you.
I love your opening to this video! The Bible verse (a favorite of mine), the overview of your homestead, the two of you walking out to start your day-all wonderful!
I enjoy these day in the life videos! Beautiful morning! Y'all are an encouragement to us to keep on keeping on in hopes to someday live the dream!
Nice harvest. I just picked a large load from my LITTLE garden. You are an insperation to us all. God Bless you and your family.
Thank you so much! Congrats on your harvest!
Kevin and Sarah, I am really surprised with your ability to grow/harvest such prolific peppers that you haven't ever grown the sweet salad peppers. If you have I wasn't aware of it. Love your channel, many blessings to you and yours from another Phoenician!
