***** 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 new videos every week! 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.

Here in Colorado we had gorgeous Spring weather with temps in the mid sixties. Last night we got three inches of snow and tomorrow's temp is back to 65. There is a saying that goes: If you don't like the weather in Colorado, wait ten minutes. 😂
I missed my Saturday morning with you amazing duo last week. Our patriarch was in the hospital and I was unable to join you guys.
He is at home and was given a clean bill of health! 😊
Always a joy to watch LTH while I drink my coffee.
How wonderful and exciting to watch you both plant the greenhouse
Looking forward to seeing everything grow🎉. Thanks for the video.
I'm really enjoying your step-by-step planting! Thanks for sharing your expertise!! 💕
Thank you for taking us with you as you launch this garden season
I so wish I wasn’t allergic to tomatoes, I’m jealous when I watch all the tomatoes being planted.
I love your tunnel garden , you are so wonderful together as you work and talk.. I can feel the love light coming from you guys when you look at each other. I have bought a couple of 12 ft raised beds , they will be here tomorrow , I showed my husband , fellow garden buddy your raised bed garden and he thought it would be great not to bend over so much too. Happy growing..My husband likes to always check out Kevin's shirts ,always a chance for a friendly laugh .....
Happy planting season everybody!
Thank you for your efforts to always share so much. I ebjoyed every moment. I have learned a lot from you over the years.
May the LORD continue blessing your lives and the work of your hands. ❤
Bacon tomato lettuce wraps, yum! Who needs bread? 😂
Very yummy indeed. Just be mindful, that depending on the size of tortilla you are using, it could be almost the same amount of carbs as 2 slices of bread.
I really enjoy how considered and organized you guys are. Always fun to watch. I was curious about the lemon tree, and how it is doing. You haven't mentioned it for some time.
My wonderful daughter-in-law is from Ft. Atkinson, Wisconsin. Wisconsin is a beautiful state and we spent many camping trips there during the 10 years we lived in northern Illinois. Now we're back in Washington state, but I still have very fond memories from yours.
Very interesting! I used to work in ft Atkinson! And now I also live in Spokane
@@fredthegreg Oh my gosh. My son and daughter-in-law went to Gonzaga and have lived in Spokane since 2003😀
I just love watching you work in the greenhouse. One day, I will be able to get me one. Thank you for all the inspiration on gardening, both inside the greenhouse and in your raised beds.
Have a blessed day!
Wisconsin weather chased you away 😂
Friends in cold 🥶 places
I love watching your videos and can hardly wait for tomato season. Dreaming of summer plants gives me a much needed diversion from worrying about my husband’s health. Can’t wait to see your greenhouse come alive with all those wonderful plants. God Bless!
I hope and pray your husband gets better soon
Kevin's shirts always make me laugh . Love some tomatoes and those Amish paste is one of my favs ! Peppers , like them hot !
I'm American of Mex. decent and can't eat hot sauce like a Mexican.😫😂
❤Sarah you have lost weight all over...happy for you...we are keto and made your Kizza recipe and it is the best in 7 yrs...that's the truth everybody ❤Lord Jesus come quickly ❤
I love you folks. Great videos and good information. You're living the sort of life that Americans crave (even if they don't know it).
I love Kevin's shirt! When I was a kid, I didn't like tomatoes. I like them now but I was told by my siblings that when I was young and got mad at someone and wanted to call them a name, the worst thing I could think of was ... a tomato! So I would say ... "YOU ... YOU ... YOU TOMATO!!" LOL
Love the tour!!! We started our homestead the year after you and its been neat to see how much you've grown and changed over the years.
We also started keto 5 years ago and it's nice to have fellow keto homesteaders!!! Woohoo!!!
Absolutely love the way you work together and your videos, keep up with the whole program🥰 so nice.
Thank you were your fans!
Our weather isn’t being so good to us in Northern Iowa. Waking to the temp of 32 degrees and the high of 42 today! Ugh. Can you believe this. All week is going to be on the colder side. Can only hope the Sun is on the way! Happy gardening to you. God Bless !
Glad you didn’t get caught in the tornado. My kids both drove through it and had a lot of damage to their cars.
I'm glad they're OK
We got our pots for free from store and a farmer.
Winter has returned here. We had three wonderful days this week in the 70's and now I'm feeling colder than I should be! You got a lot done in the greenhouse. It makes me wish I had the room for one. I have a few more plants I want to start. Still another month before the last frost here. June usually is best for the warm weather plants maybe a little earlier this year because of our mild winter the frost is out already 😊
Not so wintery here in Southern Ohio but cold enough to turn my heat back on after wearing shorts for the past three days!!
Where are you, I'm in Montana I still don't know when to start either
You can look up your area on the USDA zone map or call your county extension agent 😊
It's fall here in Tasmania. It feels like summer still. Perhaps we have stolen your spring.😊
Good morning. Even in raised buckets, if your knees aren't dirty, you're not doing it right, LOL. I aways look forward to your videos thank you!
I like BLT's but also like just plain tomato sandwiches with mayo & bread with a sprinkle of salt............Hmmmm.............
Yes, I like yours best with just tomatoes and mayo and with at least 2 kinds of tomatoes, red, yellow and dark.
Meeeee tooo 🍅 😋
YES! And pepper!😊
I live a wholemeal sandwich with lots of butter ,thick sliced tomato finely chopped red onion ,black pepper but no salt.DEEELISH!🤣🤣🤣
Love 🤣🤣🤣
Love this video!!!!! It made me so happy to see yall digging in the dirt! I'm in Central Virginia and I just took some my seedlings out to the greenhouse today. It's still too chilly to plant outside. I can't wait to get my hands dirty in the warm soil!!
Nice nice, if you can find these onions called "sugar babies" I only found them on Amish farms. They as big as a grapefruit and Sweet, White in color.
Really like the style of video! Very informative and inspiring. I can’t wait to put my own garden in. Still a month away. happy planting.🌺
Watching you guys got me itching to put my starts in the ground, but it's 32° this morning in SE Wisconsin, so I'll just watch your video again and hope for warmer weather.
My squash plants are beyond huge. It's been years since I have seen them this big and I'm hoping to start harvesting this week.
We enjoy your videos & like the way you have the high tunnel laid out
Temps dropped, I had to turn furnace back on
We have a freeze warning tonight. Ready for the weather to stabilize. God's blessing to you and yours
I will be going to Wisconsin for July 4th. She lives in Oshkosh, Our farm is in is in Chesterton Indiana so i will drive. I live in Las Vegas for the winter. I’m 82 and I live alone. I was married for 52 years, you guys remind me of us. God bless jim80
Kevin, I LOVE the shirt. It made me laugh
OMG... I love your shirt. I can't stop laughing. I'm a tomato...I don't think anything can top that! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!
Chicken moat: Will your chicken moat work to stop bears?
Most people can't afford such a high tunnel. Without it, growing is almost futile in most locations.
Vw family farm just did a video on how you can get a free greenhouse.
I love your solution for squash bugs. That is so smart! Thank you 🙏 😊
Oh I wish I had a large greenhouse, it would be a game changer for growing food
I used to grow the Black Beauty zucchini and yellow crookneck squash but several years ago I bought the Golden Zucchini squash from an organic farmer, friend of my husband who sells at our local farmers market. Squash bugs had taken out my squash, those Golden Zucchini were the best I ever ate. They. take the place of both yellow and green squash so now I only grow the Golden zucchini. Grilled planks are awesome and we also are on the Ketovore lifestyle so they fit into our eating habits, they are great cut up with onions and cooked until tender with butter, and at the end add heavy cream to finish it. It is like a dessert it is so good!
Two videos this week? Or did I imagine it? Whatever, I am delighted.
I'm watching from Racine, WI and can't wait to get the rest of my garden in! I have the cold weather crops and onions and lettuce in, but my basement grows lights have lots of peppers and tomatoes waiting to be planted, somewhere between Mother's Day and Memorial Day.
Watching you plant, I’m really getting anxious. However, it was in the 30’s here today so I’m going to wait awhile.
Aren’t ducks extremely fond of squash bugs? Especially India Runner Ducks. Why not take some of the Wattlesville residents on a field trip to the greenhouse?
It continues to Amp up my anxiousness to plant. My seeding are doing well ❤.
Really enjoy yall's videos. Like your idea on the raised bed gardening outside. I think thats gonna work out much better for y'all. Love your greenhouse. Opens up so much more options for planting and growing. Plus the weather doesn't delay or deter planting.
God bless ya'll and hope ya'll have a blessed and happy year.
Thanks for sharing with us Sarah and Kevin. Enjoyed the big planting in the greenhouse. Sure would like to try some of those Nadapeno and Habanada peppers you folks have up there. I love the flavor of them but can not stand the heat from them. Maybe one of these days we will get to travel up through there again and find some to bring home and try. Stay safe and keep up the great work around there. Fred.
Y'all are getting things done, it's exciting.
Surgeon general says: Eat tomatoes responsibly! I love them in Parmesan bowtie pasta, or BLT's or just a Mator/mayo sandwich. NUM!
How exciting! ❤ summer is definitely here once the plants get put in lol ❤
Thanks for sharing.
We had to pause the video to make BLT's
To keep them from cracking, cut off the whole cluster and leave them on the stem for a day or so before pulling them off. I think they dehydrate a little and that helps a lot.
I enjoy watching your videos!🫑🍅
Wow, you're as bad as I am. I am a fanatic about cucumbers 🥒 and tomatoes 🍅... Preferably sliced on a plate. Both of them lol. So I Winter Sow, and this year in my jugs I planted
Homestead (repeat)
Roma VF
Pork Chop (yellow with orange stripes)
Hartman's Yellow Gooseberry (yellow cherry and DELICIOUS) (repeat)
Beefsteak
Pineapple (orange tomato)(repeat)
Then today I finally emptied it enough seeds trays and planted
Dad's Sunset (red and orange) (repeat)
Super Sweet 100 (Red Cherry)
Black Cherry (Cherry)(repeat)
Black Krim (Russian black tomato with green shoulders)
Burgundy Pink Fruited (pink)
Amish Paste (repeat)
San Marzano
Brad's Atomic Grape (purple and yellow)
And more I can't even remember right now lol. The ones that say repeat, I grew last year. The rest are new. I absolutely adore the light, citrusy taste of the yellow and orange tomatoes. Now last year the only trouble I had with my tomatoes, and my Amish paste suffered as well I should mention, is I had blossom end rot because of the drought. I don't have a well and I can't catch what won't fall, so watering was a labor of love. I also went and got some tomato and veg granulated fertilizer and that mostly put an end to that. But with the dad's sunset, man those are amazing tomatoes. They are so so so so so so delicious. But it took so long to finally get some. They sat there on the vine and they would be huge and I would be waiting for them to start to turn and then when I thought okay this is it it's turning I can grab it and put it on the counter!!, I would go to pull it off and find a rot spot under it so... That was pretty miserable. But again, blossom end rot was my main issue and then not getting the Dad's Sunset to ripen! They would sit there day after day after day, and just not turn.
So excited to watch it all grow😊
What a glorious day in the greenhouse. Congratulations, those plants will be gorgeous soon and producing lots of delicious groceries.
Kevin and Sarah,use your fruit tree bags, until plants are flowering. I'm trying that this year, may be the ticket to skipping the vine borer moth and maybe squash bugs too.
You can also plant the base of the tomato sideways if your pot isn’t as deep. The “hairs” on the stem will root once they’re in soil 🍅
It was 94° here in central Kansas last weekend and today it snowed and there’s a good chance for a frost overnight tonight. My spinach all bolted in the heat last weekend, but I’m so glad I waited to put any tomatoes in the ground.
You can always feed left over vegetables to the chickens.Saves a bit on feed.
My favorite cherry tomatoes that do well for me in Minnesota are sun gold and bumblebee sunrise. Grow them every year
I'm so excited to see you planting!
What Luke said about the centiflora is right. I planted 2 plants last year. Never say anything like them. They probably had a thousand or more on the 2 plants.plants went everywhere.
My husband and I planted in or garden today ..onions..potatoes so far we are expecting frost for a couple of days....😊
God bless you and your crops! Love the videos!
Here is an idea for your last two buckets...Delicata Squash. They are delicious small squash and the skin is edible.
Looking so good can hardly wait to see them growing
Wow, great progress in your planting! Thanks for sharing! Blessings to all 🤗🇨🇦
Kevin, you are the tallest tomato I’ve ever seen
❤HAPPY GROWING! PRAYERS IT ALL PRODUCES GREAT GOD BLESS
Awesome, prayers for your harvest🙏
Great planting anxious to watch everything come up. Thank you for sharing
In Australia we call your "Tabasco peppers" "Birds eye peppers". Lol.
Yay! What a start to the growing season
How exciting I love tomatoes! Happy planting 🪴☀️
A job well done! Won't be long till you are eating fresh. Always seems like so few buckets for the greenhouse, but it works well for you and that's what matters. We do not have squash bugs up here about 6 hours north of the border. Was wondering what happened to your citrus from a year or so ago. Good video!!
How are your citrus trees going? Haven’t seen an update on them in a bit.
I'm a little over 30 miles from y'all the way the crow flies and it got 93 degrees here breaking the all time record high that was set back in like 1981.
Rose de Berne is a delicious tomato!! I hope you guys love it. 🥰 (And Jade green beans are my main bean crop! Excellent choices!)
Just found your channel! Great information, I'm definitely taking notes for myself to use in my operation.
I'm in Ohio and our weather is supposed to get cold this coming week. Like down into the thirties. We've had about the same weather as you guys have had but I hope your greenhouse stays warm. For about the next 5 or 6 days it's supposed to get down into the 30s at night. 😬 I have a small greenhouse outside that I use in April to put all of my stuff outside from in the house. I start everything in February or March and put it outside in April to harden off and grow but I also have a small heater out there to keep everything close to 50° or higher. I love the seeds from MIgardener and purchased a little over $300 in seeds last year! Everything I grew performed better than I could have ever imagined and I also put stuff together a lot closer than in years prior. I sort of used a square foot gardening method in my rows for the garden. Thank you for all the teaching moments! I have learned a good bit from you guys.
My Dad used the small hot peppers to make hot sauce both green and red. The green was super spicy! Whew.
April 20th mid MO. and overnight getting as low as 36*.. :/ Not chancing a frost so everything vulnerable is covered back up once again. Tomorrow night 35*.
I can't wait to hear what you decide to plant in the last two buckets and in the rest of the raised beds.
Thank you Kevin & Sarah. Wonderful. Prayers. God Bless you all in Love. Maranatha ! ( shared to f/b )
I get squash bugs up here in Maine every 7 years and they aren't as bad as you get in the south. The last time I had them, and once the squash vines were pulled, I put black plastic over the bed and left it until June when the soil warmed up. So far I haven't seen any and that was years ago. I also did that on the potato bed and it killed the potato beetles also. We don't have the option of growing a second crop.
A+
Great work you guys! May God bless you with an abundant harvest in Jesus' name! Amen!
Thank you so much!
Making it lettuce wrapped, I'd likely used extra tomato & bacon. You really can't have too much bacon or tomatoes!😊
Glad to see you're trying the Gold Nugget and Rose de Berne tomatoes! I've started some of them for the first time, too!
Growing in Quebec, Canada.
I love how she says we and he says he
I just harvested last year’s enormous oregano crop (from one very healthy plant) and made an oregano-parsley pesto. I’ve been thinning it with a northern Italian salad dressing, and I can’t get enough of those salads!
We love the Jade bush bean. It's always been a great producer & delicious.
If you get to where you want a BLT sandwich try Natures Own Keto Life bread. I am elderly and am keeping my A1C in the 5's with no meds and every day I have an egg, cheese, and a deli meat slice on two slices of this bread and my glucose meter shows below 120. I find the bread in a subsidiary of Kroger (City Market) here in a very small town in Colorado. Google says its in Safeway and Walmart also. Happy farming to y'all.
Hybrids are awesome as they are nearly always low acid for people that have issues with acidic foods! And, of course, much better for your teeth! 😊
Contender and Jade are the only green beans I plant, delicious
I saw a video that you can put foil around the base of the squash plant to prevent the squash bug from invading your plants. I plan on trying it this year
