- I’m so happy to finally do another pantry video!
Since our last one, Frank has added more shelving and lots of bright lights 😀
We had an amazing productive garden this year and the jars are filled with our harvests and some from local farmers that we weren’t able to grow.
I’ll share with you how and why I like to can certain produce and some that I don’t at all.
And I still have a few canning projects that I’d like to get on the shelves sooner than later.
I hope you enjoy “the tour” as much as I like sharing it with you ☺️

I love listening to you.. I know that sounds funny but my grandfather's family was from Quebec..so it feels like home.
That’s a very sweet thing to say Wendy and I understand that sentiment 💜
Thank you so much 😍
Hello, thank you for the tour of your pantry. May I share a tip? I store water in my empty jars, for just incase, there was a disaster & water from the tap was deemed unsafe. They are not canned, just filled & have lids & rings. When I go to use them I use the water to fill my canner. 👍🏼
Hello! I’m very grateful for the tip 😀 Do you keep it in the jars for drinking water uncanned? How long would it last on the shelf? I have tons of empty jars so I guess even if I had to use the water for other things in an emergency it would be helpful. Either way the jars might as well have something in them 😉
Thank you so much..I really appreciate it!
Great tip!
AWESOME IDEA!!
The online pressure canning class I took had I can quarts of water to learn how to use our canner. I ended up having to using it a couple of months later.
@@lynnclendenin2988 That’s a fantastic way to learn to pressure can and wonderful you had them when you needed them 😀
Thanks Lyn
So much to be proud of!
Thank you Lisa 😊
Really nice! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching!
Very nice pantry! Your canned goods are beautiful!
Thanks Bonney❣️ I think they’re beautiful too ☺️ (I love all the colours)
Hello from Australia :) Very nice pantry
Hello Kerry and welcome to our homestead 😀
Wow what a pantry! Care to share your tomato soup recipe?
Thank you Jane! Here’s the video I did on the tomato soup. The recipe is in the description 😋

@@JustTheTwoOfUsHomestead thank you!
Next time you have a crowd use the pickled veggies in a very large lettuce salad or pasta salad!
Fantastic idea Sharon!! I think the pasta salad would be awesome 😋 Thank you ☺️ 😃
Just found you and love your pantry. There is a lot of love and hard work there. I don't know how long you have been canning but dry canning is not a safe practice. If you are ok with that for your family, you do you, but as a UA-camr you should really specify that dry canning is not an approved method of canning. I always tell people to do their own research and not to just follow a recipe on the net. There are so many new people learning how to can and don't know the difference. I know Ruth Ann does dry canning of her potatoes but she tell everyone that it's not approved and why she is ok in doing it for her family. If you have not heard of Canuary it's an amazing collaboration put on by Liesa at SuttonsDaze that I think you would enjoy. If you love canning you will love this, a new canning recipe every day with amazing prizes at the end. So go check it out😊
Thank you! I’m very proud of my pantry 😊
I have been canning for many years and I do know that dry canning is not a “government tested/approved” way of canning. I have not done a video on this topic yet but when I do, I will be sure to inform viewers with all the details so each can make their own informed decisions.
I have watched a few videos of Canuary…lots of fun and inspiration! ☺️
Your pantry is amazing. Mine is actually in the master closet because my house is a lot smaller than I came from. I also didn’t have a garden last summer because of my move. This year I’m going to have a container garden to get around the HOA!
Thank you Lynn! Our previous homestead I used the spare room closet (or anywhere I could fit jars 😉) Maybe look into Green Stalks..they are great for vertical gardening and you’d be surprised how much food you can grow in them!
Very nice and organized! Thanks for the tour!
Thank you! Frank did all the “big work”! I was happy just to put the jars on the shelves 😉
LOVE THIS!!!!
Thank you Jennifer!
Hi, new subscriber here. I love your pantry. I also love my little basement pantry and it’s not Pinterest pretty and I’m ok with it. Thank you for sharing your pantry with us. ❤
Hi! Thank you so much! And WELCOME, we are so happy you’ve joined us 😀
Yay! I'm so happy for you both! Wow, lots of space and so organized. It looks lovely and I would be as thrilled as you are. What a wonderful blessing! 💙💙💙💙💙 I wish I had room for a pantry in our house. We utilize a very, very small bedroom. Not ideal, but thankful for it just the same. 😊 Forgot to mention that I make vegetable broth too. We love it as much as the bone broth. 😊
Thanks Carolyn 💜 At our previous homestead I used a very small bedroom as well and that worked great too 😉 We are very blessed…for the pantry, the jars, the food we put in the jars..it’s a huge wonderful blessing 🙏
It certainly is! 💙@@JustTheTwoOfUsHomestead
Beautiful pantry.❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much Joyce!
Thank you for the tour. The tomato juice you can use as a starter for soup, chili, stew or use as the liquid for canning your stew & veggie soup etc.
I’m happy you enjoyed it 😊 Thank YOU for the tomato juice ideas! I especially like the idea of using it to can veggie soup!!
I love your pantry too. We all have different needs so diversity is a given.

Thanks so much and very well said 😀
Lovely pantry! Those shelves look very sturdy, and your canned good are an inspiration for us newbies! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much 😊 Frank built the shelves very, very sturdy!! Happy to hear you’ve joined the canning club 😉
Just beautiful😍 I love your pantry! We had a jar of your 3 bean salad that I canned and they were delicious, will be making more next year and will remember to debubble next time 👍 I am getting ready to make blackberry jelly from my blackberries that I threw in the freezer this year and also some Christmas jam for gifts. The apple pie jam and the pear sound so good!!! I would love to expand my garden but I am lucky to keep up with what I have, but I am adding a new flower bed next year! All your jars are so pretty, you have every reason to be proud and thank you for the tour, I so enjoyed it❤
Thank you Carmen 💜 I’m so happy you’re enjoying the three bean salad 😀 I LOVE blackberry jam. My godmother use to make it for me when I was little…I helped her pick the berries and I got some yummy jam 🥰
Have you ever looked into Green Stalk gardening for vertical gardening? They’re quite pricey but you can get knock offs. You can grow a lot of food in them! Just a thought 😉
Glad you enjoyed the tour❣️
I have seen the pricey Green stalks and the knock offs but we live on top of a big hill and wondered about the winds we sometimes get. When I was little I lived in Germany until I was 5, I have great memories of picking mushrooms and wild blueberries in the forest with my great grandmother, I'm glad you have some of those good childhood memories too!@@JustTheTwoOfUsHomestead
I have been canning over 40 years and only had about 2 or 3 jar blowouts. I have 3 jars blow in one canner load using the zinc option. I will try it again with 1/2 tablet of zinc. If I have another blow, I will not use them. My jars are way more valuable then the lovely green color.
That’s very unfortunate and I’ve never heard of that happening before 🤷🏻♀️ I’ve been canning your years as well and IMO I believe adding the zinc is as harmless/equal as adding salt. It really shouldn’t have that affect. If you’re not comfortable with it can them the way you’ve always done it 😀
@@JustTheTwoOfUsHomestead Friends were discussing the blows. Zinc is a metal and has properties such as thermal and electrical conductivity and malleability at 212 degrees F. When heated under pressure, it expands and evolves into clouds of oxide. So, I think the expansion may need a bit less volume.
Beautiful pantry, so much hard work!!
Thank you so much! (it’s a labor of love 💜)
Beautiful pantry! Have you all been homesteading prior to this place?
Thank you!! We were at a smaller homestead for almost 4 years prior to here. The house was so charming (but small) it was a 200 year old school house ❤️ The land was smaller but also kind of awkward for gardens and animals. This homestead popped up and checked all the boxes 😀
To me it’s a perfect pantry. Love it.💕❤️
Thank you so much Linda!
Your pantry is beautiful! There is allot of hard work put in there for healthy food for you and yours! Great job!🎉❤
Thank you so much! It’s a labor of love 😀
Hello madam, I am a new follower of you from Morocco. I saw this video by chance and I liked it very much. I loved this and I appreciate all the things you do very very nice🤍
Hello! Thank you so much and WOW…all the way from Morocco 🇲🇦!
You have a beautiful pantry! Thank you for sharing with us.
Thank you so much Tracie! I appreciate your support ☺️
Wonderful video. Your pantry is fantastic. I aspire to have a pantry like yours one day.
Thank you so much!! It takes time to build a pantry and doesn’t happen all in one year.
You can and will have a pantry too 😀
I love your pantry your veg are beautiful.
Thank you Doris 😀
I love Europe pantry. I would give anything in the world to have a pantry like that I live alone and I can a little bit nothing on that extent but I loved your tour and I loved everything about it. I’m a new subby❤❤❤
Hello Marie, thank you for joining us 😃
I’m glad you liked the your. It’s good that you even can on a smaller scale, every bit counts!
Thank you ☺️
You are sweet woman! Love it also! Try beets in the shade.
Thank you so much 😊 I’ll try the beets that way this summer, thanks!
Lovely pantry
Thank you so much ☺️
Love your pantry ❤️
Thank you Marianne!
I seen a pantry tour once that used chalkboard paint on the front so you can erase it as you need
That’s a great idea, thanks!
New sub here! Just my husband and me also. Enjoyed your pantry tour! It’s lovely. Like how your shelving fits your jars. May have to show my husband your shelving. Am going to have to check out your ketchup and tomato soup recipe. The hubs loves lots of ketchup too (and Heinz is getting expensive, lol). Thanks for sharing.
Hi Debbie, Thank you! You’re husband will love the ketchup 😉
Very nice pantry, and yes I have to go check out your ketchup recipe, thank you 👧🏻
Thank you ☺️ Let me know when you do!!
Just discovered your channel I am a new subscriber now. First thing I noticed was your beautiful hair. I just found your video on your haircut. Love it. Thanks for this. Going to try your ketchup recipe for next year too.
Thank you so much Tina ☺️ We are so happy you’re here with us! You’ll love the ketchup 😉
Beautiful pantry! I got a lot of new ideas for recipes to can. Did you share your ketchup recipe on another video?
Oh & I love your square canning jars! ❤
Hi Laureen! The ketchup recipe video is linked in the description box below this video 😀 I have lots of the square canning jars..I get them from the auctions ☺️
Thanks for watching!
Wow! Very nice!! #PantryGoals. I did the same with my green beans.. also got my tip from RuthAnn Zimmerman.
For some reason, I cannot get to any of your linked recipes. I’d LOVE your ketchup and Sweet Baby Ray’s recipe. I made ketchup for the first time this year… it was fair, but not just right, and my attempt at BBQ sauce is still sitting in my fridge (probably no good, now) waiting for me to fix it.. LOL
Aren’t the green beans beautiful 🤩
Hmmm..I checked the link and it should work but if not the ketchup recipe is in my “Canning” Playlist. I’ll try and link it here for you too.
The BBQ sauce recipe was from Heather at the Kneady Homesteader. I just followed along on her video. It really turn out great!

Very nice!! I am happy for you!!
(I have 7 black sweaters) 🤣😅😂
HAHA! Thank you Carrie! (I have 3 😉)
I love your pantry! Care to share the tomato soup recipe similar to Campbell’s?
Thank you Jane! I did a video on it. I’ll try and post the link here 😀

Thank you! Looks delicious!
Do you have a video on dry canning your vegetables? I’ve never done it and I’m very interested.
I will probably be dry canning some carrots and potatoes within the next month or so
Stay tuned 😉
If you love canning there is an amazing collaboration going on called Canuary held by Liesa at SuttonsDaze. A new canning recipe every day and amazing prizes at the end. Go check it out
@@JustTheTwoOfUsHomestead Dry canning? My understanding is that is an unsafe canning practice.
@@peggiescraftcafe7117 When I do the video I will explain all about dry canning. I always go by …my kitchen my rules 😉
@@JustTheTwoOfUsHomestead yes, you do which is why I will not be eating there.
Do you have the recipe for the tomato soup? I am a very new canner... actually I got a canner for Christmas and it is still in the box... I keep saying I am going to start but I am afraid. Can you make that tomato soup and freeze it instead of canning it?
Hi Jane, I am happy to share the tomato soup recipe. I did a ciselas on it and will link it for you ☺️ I’m certain you can freeze it. Just leave a bit of headspace even when you freeze. I know it’s intimidating to start canning but I encourage you to give it a go…once you start you’ll be hooked 😉
If you ever have any questions I am more than happy to help 😀

Hmm… I could see myself struggling to recall where I got a recipe from too. Makes me wonder if I created dated post it notes in my canning books would help me refind those for future notes or future repeat choices? Does anyone else have a system that helps that issue?
I’m usually meticulous at making and keeping notes! That’s what was so frustrating when I couldn’t find that recipe. Hopefully it will pop up one day when I’m not even looking for it 😉
@@JustTheTwoOfUsHomestead 💕I can relate to that. What is your system of organization that typically helps?
@@user-gs3fm2rh3j Oh nothing fancy at all!!
I have a “Canning Binder” where I keep all my recipes and notes. The canning books that I use…if I make an adjustment to a recipe etc I just write there in the book.
Some things I find on line I keep in a file on my phone. But I’m old school, I prefer things written out in front of me 😉
What is dry canning? I luv carrots but don't love the mushing that happens when you can them
Hi Rebecca, dry canning carrots is done the exact same way as canning the regular way with water. Fill your jars full with carrots, DO NOT ADD WATER, and process for the same times as with water. They will shrink slightly and make their own “juice”. I don’t even add salt as there is no liquid to mix it with. They are so much better than canned with water 😄
Please note that this isn’t an approved method of canning. A lot of people do it but you should do your own research
What is your zinc source you added to the green beans?
I used Nature’s Bounty 50 mg “Supports Immune” from Walmart. As long as it’s from that section like Jameson etc you should be able to find it
