  • It's the peak of Fall on our off-grid Tennessee homestead! We've spent so much time working recently that we haven't taken the time to enjoy the beautiful colors and weather. Today, we do exactly this! (And of course, there's still plenty of projects!) From foraged acorn pancakes to setting up our rain water collection, come runaway with us!

    For a cheap man's gutter guard, use some of the 1/2 inch hard chicken wire cut a little bigger than the inside dim, so when you put it in, it bends to form a bit arch.

    I've never had acorn pancakes but I'm from Paris, TN. My grandparents & aunts & my parents always had a mason jar of bacon grease on the stove. I keep mine in the fridge it will keep longer. Great video!! Fall is my favorite time of the year.

One thing I noticed are a ton of tiny red ticks. I have a dog and I'm wondering what the best course of action is for ticks to stay off of him and us when walking through the trees on the land. Any ideas?

    I absolutely love ❤ the colors of fall....
    I'm not sure if you know, but with a cast iron pan don't wash it, just wipe it out because the flavors of what you cook in it will absorb into it. I remember my mom have a cast iron pan & never washed it just wiped it out.

    • @RunawayMattCass

    Just a heads up about gutter guards. We spent the money to put gutter guards on our house and the squirrels made haste to move in and set up home in the protected gutters. Subsequently, they started damaging our house. Then we had to turn around and spend money to have them removed! Hardware cloth is probably the better way to go even though leaves will probably get stuck in them, they still won't clog up your gutters.

    Only difference I've ever heard was that flapjacks can be baked. The others are cooked on a griddle, or stove top. A temporary gutter guards. Get heavy screen and cut it down and install for now. 4'x25' roll of screen from $8 to $60.
