    Tip for self-grip bandages: go to a feed store, and there the horse section. You'll find the self-grip bandages in a verity of colors (even camouflage), but much cheaper than at grocery store or pharmacy. Self-grip bandages are the same for animals as for humans. I got that tip from a local wound care center where I received treatment.

      Amen, Tina you said it. And, lady, I have so much awe, appreciation and respect for the tradeswoman that you are as a hunter. The generational, outdoor legacy that you have is only becoming more rare (but I see signs of revival). While I know the number one question every will ask after my hunt is, 'what did you get?' It's hard to explain that I "got" 1. experience gathering my bearings being that deep in the woods 2. the opportunity to watch and listen to the woods wake up is unlike anything you can experience 3. animal tracking (sights, sounds, smells) and 4. my mind turns off and becomes fully engaged and in the moment in a way I can't get doing anything else. What a blessing to still be able to get fresh meat. You sound exactly like who I want to be when I grow up!!! God bless you!

      Hello sweet friend. There is never a need to feel any kind of way about commenting or not, and I must say that I immediately prayed for you given the heaviness I know your heart is carrying. The closest family member I have lost to dad is my nana and it felt like I was walking through cement for months. In fact, these pantry chats very closely mimic the conversations I'd have with my nana during our visits. We'd pour over the sales ads, she'd show me her latest thrift finds, we browse through the stores just to get out of the house to walk for a bit, and then come back and chat some more on a bit of everything. I missed our chats so much that I gave this video format a try (me talking about meals and everything else in my life in the same way we talked). I say this because a comment like yours, still gives me the encouragement that God can still work wonders out of brokenness. Keep going mama, if only on some days minute by minute. Thank you for entrusting me with your story. You are in my prayers.

    I want to thank you for the boost to my canning this month! My pantry space was getting cramped so I'd slowed down on canning for a bit. But your Kim chi and slaw recipes will be in process soon! I scored some green beans from my local produce rescue last week; I canned them in quarts with some little Yukon gold potatoes, a quarter of an onion, and some ham chunks that were in the freezer (left from Easter) in ham broth (courtesy of that Easter ham bone!). They'll be delish next winter with some cornbread for a quick weeknight dinner. Homey comfort in a jar!

    Put a sweet pepper, small onion, and a little salt in a mini-ninja and dice very small. Set in the fridge until later. When ready, squeeze all the liquid out of the pepper/onion and add to ground meat of your choice with some garlic, pepper, and smoked paprika, then shape patties and cook as usual.

    All fall and winter we had wild teenage turkeys living in our back yard. They would fly over the fence and roost in our tall redwood tree. The funny thing is, one wild turkey stayed behind in our neighbor's backyard with his not wild turkeys (he has a small farm). The female turkey is happily staying around 7 domesticated male turkeys and she doesn't seem to mind all their attention! Who knows, she may be sitting on eggs soon and hatching out babies of her own! Another great video! May your next hunt bring you a turkey to bring home!

    Sometimes I feel like I’m bombarded with things I should know. Being that I haven’t grown up on a farm with a hunting family, I feel like I lack the basic knowledge how to be self sufficient. When you grow up in a farm and hunt, it’s a way of living. Something you’re taught as you grown. Being an adult, I’m 35. I feel like there’s a way too much to learn with little time. (Considering all the talks about food shortages and inflation, war, etc) it’s quite overwhelming know the basics have way more info than I realized.

I didn’t start caning until I was thirty, and as I shared, I’ve only been a vertical gardening (with great results by the way don’t let not having land stop you from doing what you can). I could easily get overwhelmed, same as you, and I’m a regular full time work that’s not UA-cam person just showing to start and stick with what you can do and over time, you’ll see your skill set grow. I just took up hunting at age 38! You’re being to hard on yourself. Some preparation/action is better than none. 🥰

    Hello Cassandra, I'm so happy for your first inland garden! And speaking of hunting, my husband is a licensed hunter, too. He was motivated to get a license because a lot of wild pigs come to our garden and eat our plants. But because he is busy with work, he can't go hunting with his club, and it's prohibited to use the shotgun in your yard. It was to be in a hunting area. So my husband bought a bow and arrow, and last April 23,he hunted his first wild pig in our backyard. It was coming back every night to eat our lettuce with others. Now the meat is in the freezer, we're waiting for 1 month before cooking it as suggested by the vet. Excited for your first catch. ❤❤❤

Secondly, because I appreciate my cohort and the folks I'm meeting through the DNR program in a way that words can't express. Honey this was a free program that'll be for the next year. They are giving me a life skill that has far more immediate and long term utility than dozens of other 'certifications', 'etc'. I'll be a simple hunter-one that focuses on deer and turkey season for the next few years (for budget and skillset reasons). I hope to pass my shotgun down to my kids and truly give them an outdoor tradition. I am meeting some of the coolest people that I admire and respect in a way I've been thinking, "where have you been all my life". God is good. And yes, the 'Becoming an Outdoor Woman' program through Maryland's Department of Natural Resources is a treasure!!!

    I am no hunter but I admire your determination. My cousin who was a hunter tried to get me to get my license. He was a hunter from since he was a kid - crossbow and rifle. Unfortunately he came down with lymes disease and it took a big toll on him, so he has stepped away from hunting. He even leased property in Maryland to hunt. One year he got a turkey on his property. I loved the feathers. I am not a fan of wild turkey. A couple of bucks that he got on his property, he showed me how to track them and of course, I hung out to watch him gut them. Years ago, there was no way I would had hung around for that. He taught me about hanging a deer, skinning it, etc. I just know I have come along way from when I first moved here in PA. He taught me how to fillet my own fish.
    I remember my first dead chicken, I used a shovel to pick it up. I would always leave it to him. Now it is no big deal.

    • @BecomingaFarmGirl

      Hello friend! Thank you so much!!! I can't tell you how much I appreciate that I somehow got into the program ( I applied nearly a full year earlier than when I heard I got accepted). Man, I admire hunters like your uncle that grew up hunting. Crossbow (and limited practice time) means I'll be sticking with my shotgun for quite some time. Lymes disease is no joke and I'm so sorry to hear about your uncle. It's rough that's for sure. I heard that wild turkey is dryer than white, but since I can't raise my own turkey, I'll be so happy to source a wild one (especially since I already have harvested several on my friends farms). Your uncle holds so much wisdom and know-how and I'm so glad that you've had the opportunity to learn from him and observe his workmanship. It's such a gift to have outdoor legacies passed on to you because its only becoming more RARE. I am on a similar journey that you experienced---initially feeling overwhelmed, but now (in some parts of my journey) realizing that my confidence and skillset has grown a lot. Thank you for sharing such beautiful moments of you and your uncle.

    Just a little tip for the first aid supplies. Check out your local farm store for vet wrap, (made for farm animals). You can get a rainbow of colors, and I get them for 2 bucks each. I have 7 grandkids with no fear, so they come in handy. 2 bucks instead of 8 bucks in the first aid section is a much better deal, and the kids feel special picking their own color when they get hurt.

    I have been making an awesome bbq sauce with my grape jelly fail. (It has the consistency of taffy.) I mix ketchup and my grape taffy with some spices. I have had to make it three times. Thanks for pointing out that this method is cheaper than store bought.

      Hi Cheryl! I have so much respect and appreciative for the outdoor legacy, traditions and knowledges experienced/generational hunters have---honey they know A LOT and the more that I approach the tip of the iceberg of what they know one side of me is frustrated that the majority of folks don't appreciate them more. And, lucky you to have a hunting husband! Does he hunt year round? And, I JUST sent the newsletter after posting this video so it should be in your inbox now. If not, here the link to the google doc: docs.google.com/document/d/1hySNbPb5Jtk7AjrVZJMQPAT4goGJPCsvcHez41AHdlg/edit?usp=sharing

      @@BecomingaFarmGirl Hi Cassandra, thank you the newsletter has arrived! My husband doesn’t hunt year round. At present he only hunts elk in the fall. He will be retiring in a year or two so when that happens he hopes with more time available to him he will expand into other hunting opportunities. He has hunted deer and duck but we didn’t care for the deer meat because it was just too gamey and the duck super salty. It was a very long time ago I’m thinking we could cook the meat now in a way that it would be fine. At the time this Grammy was much younger and just didn’t know how to cook it correctly. With YT I know I could watch some videos and have a very different outcome this time around. Anyway, you are a bright spot in a world that can seem…not bright lol. Thank you for your energetic, positive, and kind self!

I have so much respect and awe for hunters, and truly its a shame that the majority of folks (heck, this was me too) don't understand the depth of knowledge and holders of outdoor legacy generational and experienced hunters have. I'm so grateful for this mentorship program. I have target practice next weekend and I hope to go on another turkey hunt the following weekend. Thank you for encouraging me too, girl!

      Hello friend! I absolutely hope to be (which is an end goal of the program). Now, this will likely take me at least a few more years to be able to pass along the basics to someone, but part of outdoor traditions is to pass them along to others. The 'laws and lore' of hunting are a lot, but I'm so fascinated by it!

      Hey friend! I always think, "when I share my hunting stories, people are going to know this girl is starting from zilch, the ground floor." I have enjoyed my mentorship program so much and even though I have a looong way to go, the respect and appreciation I have for the generational knowledge that hunters have has only grown. One day I hope to pass the tradition on in the same way that I'm being poured into. Until then, you'll have to settle for my crazy beginner stories!
