[@victorlopez-eq3yl]

Inspirational videos thank you seriously

[@pnenegal2982]

What an awesome young lady, all trained ❤😊.

[@cedarcottagefarm2885]

I love fall canning. Apples, pumpkins, and the last of vegetable garden.

[@comfortcreekranch4948]

A great skill to learn! I wish I was her age when I began canning!

[@hickoryhillinthebigwoods-r759]

Tried and true recipes. Only!

[@lisamonalisahikes]

Love that you have taught them independence

[@lacyhay9022]

Plus when you can you know what is going in it.

[@ednawilliams5226]

Thats good she like canning most young people don't want to learn this the way things are getting they need to learn all this for when they have a family

[@kerriesler9062]

I've watched a handful of your videos now. Do you teach your sons to cook & can as well?

[@HeartwayFarms]

Hello! Yes they are both younger and being instructed as well. They are also involved with helping Josh do things such as fencing, animal care, bridge building and a host of other things :)

[@kerriesler9062]

@@HeartwayFarms awesome!! All valuable skills for kiddos to learn!

[@ruralcanadianmom8964]

I've been canning for 6 years. It's a sense of satisfaction and achievement. Now my kids are learning this skill/art too!

[@luciepaul1]

Love what u r teaching your children. Great job.

[@TwoFamilyHomestead]

OHHH love that root cellar !!!

[@denisefrandsen5106]

Moving into our first house in a few months. It's 75 year old home with 75 year old root cellar!! So excited. We do have some maintenance to do on it, as it has some moisture issues before fully using it properly. Great video 😊

[@HaveFaithFarmIL]

Wonderful video. I am super envious of your old root cellar! It is a wonderful resource for your farm.

[@nancydb1390]

Very impressed with your canning skills.

[@JacksonClan11]

I love old root cellars. Can't you just imagine the things that were stored away down there over the years? When I first started canning I went crazy with making jams and preserves, then I realized our family eats maybe 6 jars a year 😂. So now I only make one batch and give half of it away.

[@CrookedWoodsFamilyOrchard]

Love the seller and all of that food you have put away.

[@hickoryhillinthebigwoods-r759]

Awesome! Your root cellar is lovely. I use my basement, but wish my kids were more interested, but they are young.

[@stevienicks1269]

I use wood fruit crates (like grapes) to stack my pints. The crates stack leaving about a half inch of head space above the jars. Stacking with no pressure on the jars! In the old grape crates I have i have space for 16 pints and the space of a bit of cardboard between the jars so they dont knock into each other

[@HeartwayFarms]

Thanks for the info! We just completed a Root Cellar Rehab and will be showing an update in the coming weeks! With Cellar Tour to follow! Stay tuned :)

[@robinnelson4516]

I've totally loved watching your videos. Even my husband was asking about homesteading, which has been a dream of mine since I was a child.

[@elaineatthecraftshed1993]

Great information. I just started canning again this year after a long break when we had a lot of damson plums from our trees. I remembered to take the rings off the processed jars but didn't know about not stacking jars so I will attend to my pantry today!!!

[@melissahankins9575]

I don't have a lot of freezer space so it's what I do is I cube the pumpkin and put it in my jars and then I put my pumpkin pie spices in the jar and can it and then when I open it up I just puree it it's so good just a helpful tip

[@tdewtx]

Build some shelves with legs tall enough to go over the top shelf cans... and double that top-shelf capability to maximize that space.

[@brydancorporation7987]

Love the video!

[@gingerellis4758]

It also helps if you have some wonderful Amish friends to supply lots of tomatoes!😊

[@anniemcelroy2812]

Absolutely. And a delightful mother who has the connection;)

[@fatbaldguy7166]

What temp range does your root cellar get ? Do you have problems with rust on your lids ?

[@Cynthea_Lee]

You could make a wooden shelf for the upper concrete shelf... 4 legs (or as many legs as you need for a long one so they don't bow) and then stack them that way... just make the legs 1/2 inch higher than the jars below to give them space to pop if they are going to. It would double the storage space. If you stored all your smaller jars on the bottom concrete shelf you might be able to put a second shelf there as well... I couldn't tell when I watched the video IF there would be enough space on the bottom one to do it AND still have room to pull jars off the upper concrete shelf. I wouldn't go more than ONE shelf up on the upper one unless you can attach it to the rock/concrete wall behind or the whole thing can / will topple over.

[@hannahslivinghope7593]

Thank you for the video! I love Julianne's hair, is there anything she does to it?!

[@treehugginghomeschoolers1471]

If that's the same blueberry jelly you sell, it is delicious 😋 Love the video!

[@kevinrehberg8758]

I never store with the bands on.. and because I use re-usable lids I double check the seal three weeks later.. You can stack jars in produce boxes as long as the upper box doesn't settle on to the jars below and can fit up to 14 quart jars into a produce box.. Usually there is close to an inch of free space between the jar tops and the underside of the top of the box

[@mariavenzor3073]

Hi I would love to now how to can meat or chicken if you can answer me please

[@ljmproductions1]

Hello! I think they covered it pretty well in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5rOp2h-n62risU They like to can cooked chicken rather than "raw packing" it: just a note on the method they're using in the video. Hope that helps!

[@Tadpole102464]

i know you didn't show the whole process, but make sure to Debubble everything you put into a jar, and clean the rims with vinegar :)

[@bettybowden2767]

Where do you get all of your jars and lids without breaking the bank?

[@fatbaldguy7166]

Does hummidy cause your lids to rust in your root cellar?

[@HeartwayFarms]

Not as of yet. However, we do go through the food with our family of 8.

[@nancyinboise9643]

Great root cellar!I was wondering if your family is Mennonite? Just looking at how the girls are dressed? Do your boys also know how to preserve Foods Etc?
