I watch everyone on your list! Lol I have a few to add to your list for you to check out. Homesteading family, Homestead Heart, Epic Gardening, Jacques in the Garden, Gardener Scott, Homesteading with the Zimmermans, the Hollar Homestead, Sparkman Homestead and last but not least Seed and Sparrow Homestead!
Great list, Red! I have seen a few of those. Epic Gardening and Gardener Scott were runners up on my list, only because I had to cut it off somewhere! I did recently find Sparkman and Seed and Sparrow, both quite good. I don't know the Zimmermans. I'll have to look them up! Thanks so much!
I love cookbooks too. I recently cut down my collection because the area much like yours where I keep them was overflowing lol I did however find a few cookbooks on your list that I want to add lol thanks for sharing your lists!
@@Red2U Purging cookbooks is so hard! I just did it recently too. Glad you found some new ones that look good to you!
We obviously like a lot of the same things. I follow almost all the channels you mentioned. I think you would enjoy “the Elliot homestead”. She has the most calming voice. She gardens and cooks great looking food. I want you to know that your channel has become one of my favorites even among that list you have. I know your channel is young but it won’t be long before all those people are telling others to watch your channel. I learn so many things from you and I like your style of videos. Like David my husband thinks I’m nuts. I told him I have to go see what my friend Carter is doing today. He looked confused when I told him it was my new favorite UA-cam channel. We are the same age so us “geriatric” girls have to stick together.
You inspire me everyday.
What are the little bags you put on your tomatoes? I have never seen that before. Hope the bunny stays out of your garden.😊 keep up the great work, you are a wonderful teacher. ❤
My top 2 are the gardening godfather Charles Dowdig and the one channel that made me expand my garden the rusted garden.
Great channels! I do love Charles' multi-sow method. Brilliant. I've been watching Gary forever too. Thanks for reminding me of those two, T!
Just wanted to let you know, watch out for 4% vinegars. Love your videos
I'm starting to hear about that. Thank you, Ken!
That knife is gorgeous. I want to try your version of a no sugar ketchup.
Have you checked out RuthAnn Zimmerman? I learn so much from her too! “Homesteading with the Zimmerman’s”
Yes, I've since found her.
I am a UA-cam junkie for cooking, preserving, gardening and farm animals. We inherited & live on my husband’s family farm where he grew up. I never imagined myself here. I follow most of your list but some were new to me. Your channel popped up on a search or recommendation, I can’t remember. Millennial Gardener is right down the road from me. UA-cam is My TV.
I'm so glad I was able to give you some new ones to check out! Also very happy that YT thought you might like my channel! :-) Great to have you here, Renita!
What a wonderful presentation Cater! ♥
I watch or have watched 99% of the channels you mentioned. I'm going to check out Huw. Mark at Self Sufficient Me is awesome. Must listen carefully for his subtle puns. :)
I love growing, harvesting, preserving and cookbooks. BUT, sadly I don't enjoy cooking. Love the end result, so I cook and I'm good at it. Sometimes it causes me too much anxiety, don't know why, but it just does. Canned meats have been a game changer here in our home.
Thanks, Vicki! You will enjoy Huw! I wish you loved cooking! Canned meats are absolutely a game changer. Who doesn't want to start in the middle of a recipe and be done in half the time or less!? I would do a lot less cooking without them, even though I love to cook! Always so good to see you here, Vicki!
What a beauty you are❤😊
I really appreciate your videos! Thank you!
Thanks, Jane! So glad to have you here!
Hi Carter. I always enjoy your videos. This one wasreally helpful. I, too, have a thing about cookbooks. When I cook any new recipe, I make a copy of it ( electronic and paper - never know when the grid will go down). I make notes in the book or on the paper for changes, what I did/didn't like about it, etc. My books have so many sticky notes they strain the covers. The paper copy goes in a binder for quick reference.
Thanks again for all the great ideas.
I do the same thing, Donnie! I keep all those recipes in a 3 ring binder labeled "favorites". I pull that notebook out several times/week.
Wonderful tips. Thank you for sharing. I love the restaurant menu idea. Great idea!
You are so welcome!
I got a few cookbooks delivered today. Angi Schneider Pressure Canning seems wonderful. I earmarked 7 recipes just looking through it.
It is that kind of cookbook! Every time you look through it, you'll find another recipe to mark. Enjoy, Darla!
Mary’s nest, Rose red homestead,cosmopolitan cornbread,Jerry landers at hop along hollow, Appalachia homestead,Heartway farms, roots and refuge farms, celebrating Appalachia just to name a few.
Good ones! A couple I don’t know about. I’ll definitely look them up! Thanks, Kenna!
oh....and shorts are never long enough to satisfy!
Darla, I'm going to answer your dilly beans question here, because, although I can see the question, it's not showing up in a spot I can answer. Sometimes YT is very weird. At 1220 ft, you would add 5 min to the processing time, for a total of 10 min. Hope that helps!
Carter I love Mark, Self Sufficient Me in Australia, Cassandra, Becoming a Farm Girl and Aerial, Simple Living Alaska. Thanks for the You Tube favorites and cook books I love as well. Have a wonderful Sunday.
Thanks, Donna! Some good ones!
Hey Carter!!! I love your channel, very inspiring!!! I really love how you have created your pantry....I really love your nail polish, would you please share the name of the color/brand...I love red, but most of the reds are too bright...thx
Thanks, Betty! I agree that most reds are too bright. I had them done at the nail salon a couple weeks ago. I'll have to get the name/brand for you next week. Email me toward the end of this coming week as a reminder. carter@growandpreserve.com
Check out Purposeful Pantry for dehydrating. Awesome! Suttons Daze is all about canning, food storage, pantry stocking. She's awesome! I've learned so much from these 2 ladies, I actually started canning and dehydrating at age 75. I'm loving it. Looking at the Presto electric canner, the big 23 quart is just too heavy. We'll see... Found your channel and now I'm hooked on premade meals in a jar.
Great suggestions, nancy!
I am seeing this late, but I wanted to let you know that I too am a collector of cookbooks. I have a couple that you mentioned. I read them like any other book, but several times over. I never really looked at them as an inspiration to use my canned, freeze dried and preserved foods. Now, I will be intentional when looking for a recipe to use with a preserved food item. Thank you Carter.
By the way, I have a Chicken Eggplant Parm recipe that is delicious!
So glad to find another cookbook lover, CDJ! I can read them over and over. Have fun reading them from a new perspective!
I live by mysef. I am of Polish descent. Some of our dishes are alot of work. So, when I make soup, stews, main meals, I make extra and can the rest. Stuffed cabbage, stuffed peppers, chicken soup, beef mushroom barley soup, dill pickle soup, cabbage soup, fried cabbage to add to noodles and for a side, etc. I have also canned corned beef and cabbage.
Those all sound delicious, Brenda!
This video was very informative. Nice you complement other channels. Your kitchen looks like a dream come true
I'm so glad it was helpful, TD! These channels have added so much value to my life, it's impossible not to give back what I can. Thanks for being here!
Awesome Video! You have a great list and I share many of the same on my lists. Thanks for finding new ones for me to watch. My husband and I watch the Veggie Boys together and both enjoy them tremendously. Happy Homestead, Homesteading with the Zimmermans, Grow and Preserve and ThreeRivers are all on my must watch list. Your photo of your cookbook collection was fabulous. Going to go add to my Amazon book list. Thanks for sharing.
Darla! So good to see you! You're the second person to mention the Zimmermans. I must check them out! So glad I made the must watch list! 😘 I hope you're having a wonderful Summer.
Hi Carter. I hope by now you have found Charles Dowding’s channel in the UK. Totally not my zone (6A) but a wealth of useful knowledge for all gardeners. Cheers 🎉
Yes. I've watched him for years. I had to cut off my "most inspiring" somewhere!
I loved your video and getting suggestions on new channels to follow. I have quite a collection of cookbooks and Southern Living magazines that i have a hard time parting with because of the recipes that look so scrumptious! Thanks for new inspiration!❤
Welcome, Debbie! Always happy to share the love. Do you have a current favorite cookbook?
❤ precious…your inspiration comes from others…many I know as well. And of course you inspire me!! Thanks
Thank you so much, Cyndie! I'm so happy to have you here,
I love kombucha!! I make it by the gallons😊I am the only one in my family that drinks it .
Amazing stuff, isn't it?
Carter, I really enjoyed this! My husband may not see me for a few days !!!So many I had not heard of. Thanks ❤
Enjoy them!
You are inspiring me to can more items, thank you
Fantastic, Mary Ann! I'm so glad to hear that.
Great video! I watch a good number of channels that you mentioned but I did find a couple of new ones to follow and ordered a cookbook via your link.
Great, Kim! I love finding new channels, so I'm always excited to introduce folks to one I really love. And thanks for the purchase through the link as well! Always so appreciated. So glad you're here!
Love your Visio. Wanted to add Little Mountain ranch out of Canada as well
Yes! I love Chelsea. I think she’s on my list. Hope I didn’t miss her accidentally. (That’s why I used notes!)
I loved all of this thanks for all those ideas i learned a lot of gardening from you tube.
You're welcome, Kim. Glad to have you here!
Also, Simple Living Alaska is the channel that has their videos in one playlist start to date. Cheers 🎉
Thanks!
Some of these homesteads are my favourites too. The ones I never watched I'll go see soon
Good! Hope you find some new ones you enjoy!
I follow most of these too!
I figured you would!
Oh, Carter! Could you be my best friend?!?!?
So, tonight, I took the little sprouts of my cauliflower and broccoli plants from my fall garden and made a quick Hollandaise sauce in my VitaMix. Then I cooked a couple of ground meat patties seasoned with Tony's and "wash your sister sauce". What a feast we had. So simple. So delicious. You are an inspiration!
Fantastic! It sounds delicious! What in the world is "wash your sister sauce"??
@growandpreserve Worchestershire Sauce. I heard someone call it "wash your sister sauce" once. I thought it was hilarious, so I adopted the saying. Lol.
Hysterical! Thanks for the laugh, Bridget. @@bridgetwilkins312
Thank you; what a fantastic informative video. Love your channel so much!
Lori, thank you so much!
@@growandpreserve our so welcome!
I want to thank you for the raw packed potatoes and carrots. I have never eaten water canned potatoes or carrots that I liked. They are just nasty. Would sweet potatoes be ok to raw can?
Glad you like the potatoes! A couple of folks here have tried sweet potatoes this way. The ones who have gotten back to me have reported that the final product is not worth doing. I slice my sweet potatoes, then roast, flash freeze and vacuum seal for the freezer. It’s the best I’ve been able to do with them. Hope that helps!
Thanks
@@growandpreserve
Thanks for the list of your inspirational UA-camrs.
Do you have any interest in Freeze drying?
Very much interested, but not in the budget at the moment. Do you freeze dry?
@@growandpreserve no. I saw a channel that freezes dried her ground beef and thought of you. I bought a second hand dehydrator so I’m going to try that first.
@@cassandras1688 Got it. Heidi, at Rain Country, dehydrates her ground beef, if you're looking for a guide on that. Good to have you here, Cassandra!
Excellent video. Bought a new book because of it. ❤
Oh edited to add. Please do a kombucha video. I just started back after about a five year hiatus and my kombucha is definitely lack luster. Also, taco videos. I love tacos but only can ever think of normal basic growing up tacos. I know yours are fabulous.
And I guess I thought you were in Atlanta for some reason but you said Tennessee. I’m in Tennessee not far from the fall creek falls area. Hi neighbor. Lol
Thanks so much, Mel! I'll put kombucha and more tacos on the list. (David thanks you for both of those!) We moved to TN 2 years ago today! Best move ever. I'm closer to Nashville, but we're not far apart at all!
@@growandpreserve tell David he’s welcome. Lol. We moved to this house last summer. Came from Georgia also but NW area. Best move for us as well.
@@Mel-vu9ss Reading through the comments, saw this and had to comment! I'm in the NW area of Georgia... Canton/Waleska/Cartersville area. Y'all, my hubby and I keep talking about how ATL keeps creeping further north and that its time we start looking at where to go next. We're only an hour from TN already. I feel like the universe might be trying to tell me something!
You are an inspiration to me. You hooked me when I came across your video on canning potatoes. Thank you for the wealth of information and sharing where you get your inspiration. Love love watching your videos, looking forward to more. 👏
Thank you so much, Colleen! I am so happy to have you here!
Great list!! I watch all but becky. I used to watch her. Sadly, hiding her baby and babys name just rubbed me wrong way.....i didn't know that was Hoss jr, !?!? Love both his and the row by row w/ mrs hoss. Self sufficiently me is a gem!!!!
Sounds like you have a great list as well!
Becky recently said that she took advice from several other YT'er friends that have children who told her they wish that they had kept their kids off the channel, and now can't undo it. Even when the kids seem willing while young, a few channels have had to rationalize why they no longer show their kids. Like for Cog Hill Farm, their daughter hit puberty and got self conscious... but I have to wonder if viewers just get creepy and the parents are doing what they can. Becky strikes me as a nervous first time mom, so I didn't fault her for that, as awkward as it is sometimes. I have a hard time watching now with her new property. Its not as useful to me to see how someone grows on a huge property as it was when she was kicking butt on just an acre. I'll always watch her freezer meal videos though! And I'm not too proud to admit that I am totally jealous of her kitchen and pantries!
@@karenpage9383 understood. I get keeping children off camera but not even a first name after all the lead up and step by step list she did video on. I watched every video until then but just got bad vibe after her video talking about 'baby A'. Totally agree, no longer relatable. Sadly other channels do same, grow large and don't really interest us backyard gardeners. Thx for your kind response.
@@rschroeder6460 You know, my hubby watches a lot of YT too... wood working and such. He mentioned last night that he gets annoyed when someone he started watching when they first started out gets so successful that they sell their house, build a big, new one with a massive shop, and fill it all with tools from companies that now sponsor him. I guess its the same thing in a different context. I'm sure if we had both come into Becky's channel right now we'd feel different, but having been following her since the beginning, the channel has a different vibe now. And you are totally right that she got us all invested in her pregnancy, so it feels awkward to then get so tight lipped. If I had to guess, she got more feedback than she wanted about some of her pregnancy and delivery fears. I know I saw one telling her that she needed to grow up cause she shouldn't be a mother if she was going to act so childishly. I know when I was pregnant many moons ago, I got so much unsolicited advice from friends, family, and complete strangers... I can't imagine what content creators have to put up with! I still think there will be a point where she involves the kid... if for no other reason that its going to be hard not to. That, or her posting schedule will decrease a lot.
@@karenpage9383 totally agree. I do understand channels evolving but I think many don't realize why so many started watching in first place. Roots and refuge is another, I still watch but its more about their property now than actually growing a good tomato. There are a few that haven't changed a bit and I will always support them for that. ...my husband says that many simply watch to be entertained, like a soap opera. I guess thats true but I'm not interested in soap operas lol! Hope your garden is doing well, mine is about a c+ at this point. Planning fall garden
Hello Carter, Thank you for sharing. Getting inspired is the key to go on with whatever you do. You inspired me with the salsa and chutneys you canned. I have made the mustard and the peach salsa. Next on the program is the peer/ginger chutney. Greetings from the Netherlands
Marion, thank you! Salsas, chutneys and mustards! So much flavor on your shelf! I am so happy to have you here, Marion.
Carter, you inspired me late last Fall to grow lettuce indoors. We have had continuous lettuce available to us whenever we wanted to have a salad (which is often). Our growing set-up has also been used to seed start for our garden. You also have taught me a lot of canning details. Thank you again. You have been an inspiration to me.
Al! That is so awesome. Thank you so much! I'm so glad your salad bar is never-ending!
I follow many of the channels you mentioned! I would also add neversink farm. His vids that specialize on each veggie from seed starting to harvest are phenomenal. Each one is like a mini documentary. He ends each segment with a lovely meal. Thanks Carter! Kyli
Excellent! I'm putting neversink farm on my watch list tonight!
Wow! You are so right about Neversink Farm. Watched a couple episodes last night. So enjoyable to watch. Thanks so much for the rec!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Eric & Ariel are fabulous! Becoming a Farm Girl wastes nothing! She has the BEST cinematography in her videos. I love Rachel at That 1870s Homestead. Living Traditions and Justin Rhodes were the first UA-camrs that I subscribed to. Others of my favs include Self-sufficient Me and The Veggie Boys (and girls😀). I subscribe to most of the same channels that you mentioned. I appreciate your channel as well. Thank you for sharing your ideas. I loved the video where you canned the orange and lemon/lime juice, dehydrated the mushrooms and cherry tomatoes and roasted and froze the garlic. What great ideas for saving waste.
Thanks so much, Donna! I'm so glad to have you here!
Thank you for this video with so many good resources. I follow several of the channels you link, but I can’t let this opportunity pass without saying some thing about your style and personality has me canning. I appreciate you😎. I especially love the cookbook suggestions. I have clicked on & ordered a couple books recently that I’ve seen you speak of and use in videos but I’m not sure it has linked the purchases to your account💚
Carol! Thank you so much! That means everything. And thanks for the link purchases as well. I don't have any way to track specific purchases, but if you click through any of my Amazon links and purchase something within 24 hours, it should give me the credit for it. You are so sweet for wondering about whether or not I'm getting credit! 😘
Hi there Carter, what a great video and of course I watched to the end 😂. I follow most of the UA-cam channels and have always loved reading cookbooks. You are great at finding inspiration and then actually making the recipes with your substitutions. You give me courage! ❤
Erika, you are such a sweetheart. Thank you so much for being here!
I enjoyed your video. You find inspiration in much the same way I do. I'm making a year's worth of salsa today! I have gone vegan in the past year and have been on an adventure to find delicious ways to convert favorites to vegan dishes.
Thanks, Nancy! A year's worth of salsa! That's an exciting day. You might really enjoy the Love and Lemons cookbook. So many divine veggie and grain recipes. So happy to have you here!
I love Eric and Ariel! I would love to go stay with him for about a week and then come home and rest. Ha ha.
Right?! Aren't they the best?
I loved when you brought out a cheat sheet on waterbath canning showing the Ph levels. I told myself I'd download that later and of course, I didn't. Would you be so kind to include in a future video please? Thank you for all the tips and links!
You're welcome, Norma! Here's the chart: Clemson pH chart I use: www.clemson.edu/extension/food/food2market/documents/ph_of_common_foods.pdf It's in the pineapple salsa video. Thanks for being here!
@@growandpreserve Thx so much!
Thank you for sharing your inspirational accounts with us. I, too follow several and truly share your appreciation! A few of your cookbooks are new to me so it’s time for me to hit the library 😉Thank you for being so generous and genuine with us, Carter. You’re a gem in my book.
Thank you, TrueGApeach! Always so glad to see you here!
Hi Carter, you are the first channel I found sadly I don't know any of the other channels you mentioned, but excited to check them out.
Hey, Lisa! I'm so glad you found me! How exciting for you to now have all these great channels to explore!
Carter, I really really enjoy watching you, I've learned a lot. I'm so glad you are the one I found first. I used to own my own catering company; until recently a few years ago I fell and badly broke my neck. I just started getting back to being me, when I found you. Thank you for just being you. Recipes come easy, I dream recipes in my sleep wake up and make the meal that I dreamt.
@@unltdSheep62 Oh, Lisa! I'm so sorry you had such a horrible fall. But I'm so glad you're getting back to being you. Now I want to dream about recipes!
