Congratulations! Wow great progress, great video. New subscriber 😊

Different varieties are best for different dishes/cooking forms. Not all potatoes make good baked potatoes, so that factors into everything as well.

I like the fact that you don’t give up. This is the secret of a good farmer. Best of luck. Green houses in your area will yield more because of the weather. Keep gardening!!

New KZbinr here just subscribed 🎉🎉

What a great year!

Excellent summary and background!

❤🎉

This was a great recap video! So glad you had many successes that offset the failure of the other growing space. Hopefully the new high tunnel will happen so you can have more bountiful harvests this year...👍🏾👍🏾

So, nice to see some benevolence in this world that often seems to have none. What a nice old man and nice of you to recognize him like this.

A well thought out multi-use pole barn.

With all the poisons that are used to grow commercial food it's a blessing to grow your own.

Oh to be young and fit again and starting out with so much promise in the future!! Congratulations on how much you were able to accomplish this past year. I just recently found your channel and need to go back and watch your older videos. Can I ask you what brand your small greenhouse is that you moved? I'm in south central Montana near the Wyoming border and the winds in my area can be pretty intense some days and I've been trying to find a greenhouse that will hold up to them. Looking forward to seeing what you do next.

Thank you for sharing your neighbor’s garden! Wonderful video. I just found your channel and I like it. I’m in W. Tn and it’s neat to see the differences,best of luck to you.

Like your honesty in showing true your knowledge in learning. We all learn from each other. God bless your ventures.

You can make an 8x12 root cellar out of a heavy 4x4 wood frame, plywood, and pond liner. It's the cheapest easiest way

These kids should all be getting their heads out of the phone and pay attention to what matters. This is the most valuable wealth of information in the world

Your videos is called wisdom from a lifetime of experience, but you shared no wisdom. I was looking forward to hearing about his soil.

I love hearing from our elders ❤️

Happy new year.

Making good use of the root cellar.

Preserving eggs for winter is a really good idea.

Interesting, in the USA there are cellars or basements, sorry I'm from Bavaria, I still don't know the difference from the word, but that's not my topic. The house my family (father) comes from has a storage cellar under the house that must be around 200-300 years old and is really damp and cool, a fairly constant temperature throughout the year. It's very good for storing fruit and vegetables, but back then these cellars were built for storing wine. 😄 What interests me is why are the ceilings above the cellars or basements 😉 usually made of wood or wooden construction beams or with steel beams and sheet steel with concrete or with any ICF systems? I've already watched a few videos, but I haven't seen any ceilings over basements made of reinforced concrete in the USA. Is this not allowed in your country or what are the reasons? I am a trained master bricklayer and concrete builder with a building construction technician qualification according to our building system. We build our houses very differently than in the USA. Most of our houses here are built with reinforced concrete basements because we have very high groundwater levels here (near Munich) and some of the basements are in water (yes, really in water), but they have to be watertight and the easiest way to do that is with concrete. There are also areas where the basements are built with block bricks, but all the ceilings are always made of reinforced concrete. Greetings from Upper Bavaria.

You may try feeding your bees honey in the winter. Anything that helps keep them alive.

A nice storage for your food. Good job!

Thanks for the break down on the costs.

I figured about $5000. I mix and pour my own. 8x8x16 blocks only cost $2.53 here at HD. So, your numbers are pretty good, you proly can’t do it much better or cheaper. I already watched ur build video so that’s why KZbin recommended, actually, I think I’m subscribed, nice work.

Very cool project! Thank you for sharing this information so others can get an idea of what it takes.

My great uncle grew his own food and he lived to be 107! He died peacefully in his own bed! When he was 80 years old he got sick, went to hospital by ambulance. He said “when I get back home I’m throwing all my medicine away, it’s Killing me!!!” He was truly ahead of his time ❤

Check out Paul Gautschi's " Back to Eden " gardening method.

Candy your watermelon rind and your orange rinds. (Make sure to take off as much of the white as possible

A great garden, what an inspiration to us newbies! Any problems with deer on the farm? Cheers Roger

Thanks for your video. I'm just beginning to grow sweet potatoes. ❤

Tomato jam can make decent sub for ketchup, depending on how it tastes. Try it on home fries? If you like fermenting foods (such as the kimchi), you might try fermenting your turnips. If you like sauerkraut, there is a thing called sauerrueben (sour roots, instead of sour "greens"). Shred the turnips, and ferment just as you would cabbage - they make plenty of brine, and it is delicious - I personally like it better than sauerkraut.

Use your v-8 in chili, your tomato jam tastes good over meatloaf or in a burger, use the apricot jelly on chicken. This is the first time I’ve found you but I will be going back and watch your other videos !

I live in North Dakota hopefully next spring I can start gardening

You could use your V8 to cook rice in to make it Mexican style. Also, in some baked goods recipes you can use applesauce to replace oil.

I’d be curious of what his soil prep is

Make soup with the homemade v8.

Use that jam in barbque sauce or marinade

Don't you can dice tomatoes. I never have enough to add to my soups or chili. You can do that with your last pot of tomato

Make watermelon rind jam- preserves. My mom did

I'm told that you can put a piece of cardboard between the first and second stack of jars and they will stack just fine.

The cushaw made some awesome "pumpkin" pie this year! Someone gave me some spicy tomato jam and she said she put it in the crock pot with meat. I haven't used it yet. My mom always made tomato jam and it was delish! Just tomatoes, sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice. Just leave out those peppers. Banana jam is great in oatmeal!Great pantry tour; thanks for sharing!!

food is always good to have :)

So awesome and thanks for sharing ❤I’m new to your channel

maybe use up the banana jam to make banana muffins or bread

Rut cellar???

Is that a filter behind you??
