Don't get overwhelmed, how you eat an elephant? One bite at a time, baby steps are still forward progress. Remember Matthew 6:34 and Galatians 6:9... But yah... Them eyes just glaze over, you sound like the Charlie Brown intercom announcement wahh wah wa what wa😅 and that's just discussing preparation, imagine thier immediate distaste at encouraging people to prep for eternal life and find salvation in Christ Jesus 😅

[@bjbumblebee5324]

Kind of reminds me of the tale of the Ant and the grasshopper. The Ant stored food, worked hard, got ready for the winter and warned the grasshopper to do the same, but the grasshopper laughed and said later. When the winter came and the grasshopper was freezing and starving he went to the ant begging for food and shelter. Unfortunately, we have had it so good here in the United States that there are a whole lot of grasshoppers out there

[@katie7748]

Yes. We've been too spoiled for too long with the best of the milk and honey. And it's across ALL age ranges, too. I've known way too many born in the 30s, 20s, or even earlier, who are/were quite comfortable being so spoiled.

[@esmeraldamoreiragallardo]

​@@katie7748 Preach it. I'm sooooo done with people blaming it all on the young generation "o young people are so spoiled, they don't want to work bla bla bla" Mean while I know so many spoiled baby boomers and what not,bléh. Lot of older people like to project, there's a lot of issues with people in (Western) societies this days ( and with this day I mean the last couple of decades) and it's cross generational.... Let's all just stop blaming one or another generation. Kind regards!

[@susielansford9500]

I have to share a funny story with you. For Christmas I shipped my brother some items from Wal-Mart and subsequently forgot to remove his address from my account. In January I inadvertently sent him 20 pounds of rice and 16 pounds of pinto beans. He called me incredulous and I explained my error. Long story short, he bought food grade storage buckets and now prepares. Once he had some food on his doorstep he somehow had ears to hear all the reasons I might place an order like that. I gave him some things to look into, and now he's begun his journey of preparedness. While I never intended to send him this "gift", I now consider it a divine appointment, and I'm happy for the shipping mishap!

[@tin-foil-tiarra287]

The BEST prep I bought this year was an entire large tote filled with good seeds from a resale store. It was donated at the end of the season from a local nursery, and I paid $10 for it. Probably at least 200 packets of 2023 seeds. I really scored!

[@greyfox243.]

Yay!

[@justmichelle71]

Even the Walmart seeds go for a minimum of $3/packet. Nice find.

[@FloridaGirl-]

Great score! 👍

[@jessiesalisbury7044]

What is the date on those seeds. Most seeds are only good for 3 years, and they go worse and worse thereafter. Never buy without reading (in fine print at the top of the back of the pack. Sometimes what seems too good to be true usually is.

[@KimCarter-pd5lk]

In the beginning, I warned my Mother, fiance, and close friends to stock up on their food. They laughed & joked about it. I was tormented and called a crazy person. Also called a greedy hoarder. Now that it is 1 year later, they see the light. Not one of them apologized. 6 month ago, my Mother got into my place and stole half of my food. She said I did not need it. I had to start all over again. I was preping for both of us. However. When she stole from me, she became on her own.

[@NeurodivergentHomestead120]

I told the Prepping Preacher (RIP) during a live once that I can't get my dad to listen... so I store food at his house because he has more room. Gotcha, Dad! Oh, and could you hang on to this camp stove for me? Merry Christmas! Here's an afghan I knitted for you! Sure, I can mend that coat. Any chores you need my boys for? The Preacher laughed. Gets the job done,

[@wishuwerehere1939]

You are so right! My husband passed suddenly last year the week of Christmas. I was not ready for that so when gardening time came, I just couldn’t get it together. But I have food put back from the season before and it’s getting me thru. This spring I will have my garden back in full force. We have to be ready for whatever season we are in.

[@reneap9049]

We got 8-10” of snow in Memphis, expecting freezing rain Thursday. You should’ve seen every grocery store I drove by, geesh! I said a prayer for them on my way home to my stocked pantry.

[@miephoex]

Mrs H. God says not everyone will be saved! Many will harden their hearts towards shows of kindness, compassion, empathy and teaching skills of survival. You put it out there. They have to be willing to grab onto it. God Bless You! 🙏 Thank you!

[@rosettesoilandseed6878]

my husband has called me paranoid for years. But when Covid heat and saw that I was somewhat prepared, he apologized and now he makes sure that I have the money for what ever we need. Just the other day he asked about the price of a Freeze Dryer.

[@Nikki-r4x8u]

My neighbors knew I stocked food because I was trying to be that ROLE MODEL trying to educate them ... I recently silently moved because all I kept hearing was " I'm coming to your house ... My new place nobody knows anything. ... I'm keeping it that way

[@jenniferhite6091]

God saved my life but you were the first one I ever watched on prepping. Holy spirit told me to prepare . First video I saw was you teaching how make ghee. I was amazed, I had never seen that before. You and your husband have saved my now prepping for 2 yrs now. My husband got laid off for a month. God helped us with the finances but because I listened to the holy spirit and PREPARED!!!! We were able to eat and not go hungry. Thank you ssssooooo much for your labor. The Hite House loves you guys.

I quit talking to folks about it. If 2020 didn't wake them up and make them be better prepared for man-made disasters, etc nothing will. I just continue to make sure my family can eat and stay warm. Thanks for all you do

[@olmcmonnie7445]

Prepping helped my family when 3 out 5 of our vehicles went down back to back. Then the washer and the vacuum went out on us. SMH. Got the cars fixed one at a time. Got the vacuum and then a washer/dryer set. Only bought milk and bread that entire period. Yes, it cost a small fortune to restock, but we didn't have to choose between eating or repairing and/or replacing stuff. Preps have helped us through frequent power outages. The last power outage, we didn't miss a beat. I only wishI had the money for a whole house generator (we don't buy on credit, if we can't own it outright we just keep stepping). But that's okay, there's always a work around.

[@olgaguer6443]

"It's not time to stop!" - I learned it today from you, wise lady! God bless you!

[@greyfox243.]

Mrs H, the Balsalmic Chicken recipe is still my favorite to can and eat! Thank you! I can not believe the people I know who know how to can and have never canned meat. Meat is our main staple and my favorite to can.

[@phyllissanders6997]

Mrs.H You have to have discernment, I live in a 2 bedroom apt,between listening and learning from lady lead and lead farmer73 I have a pantry stocked,I learned how to water bath and pressure can,by your videos, I made a garden on my back porch, I have been preparing for years per your videos,I have bug out bags,just say I've been listening to your encouragement for years. If I can do it, we all can❤

[@chriskat646]

I had a pressure canner I was afraid to use , but you helped me past that. I love using my pressure canner now thanks to you. I am 69 yrs. old and the day I stop learning is the day I am dead. I learn so much from all of you younger folks. Keep putting out all the information - you all are reaching way more people than you realize.

[@yvonnegathing3634]

Mrs. Heart, this is so much what I needed to hear so I can warn my immediate family again what they should be trying to do because being a disabled person with land my family is just not adhering to nothing I'm saying and those very children will be knocking at my door. Yes I'm trying to prepare for them but it hurts to know I have no help at all. Saying no is truly going to be a challenge even though I just can't see turning my kids away. I love and thank you Mrs. H. Good continue to bless you daily💜🙏

I'm from kansas 2 days ago it was -10. So I was going to Walmart and I had seen a little homeless camp back behind it. I told my husband I have to go get some supplies for them. Didn't know what I was getting myself into, but had to do it got some water and food and blankets. It's just so sad. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@lc5346]

Oh Mrs. H for days here we have had serious below zero and wind chill -41! It’s crazy. All I could do is pray my heat and electricity stayed on because I have to use oxygen. But I had food 🤗

[@creinicke1000]

I know they are expensive.. But I'd advice getting a couple small generators, solar or gas.. Because you are definitely at risk. At least chat with neighbors and have a plan to get to a neighbor that has alternative heating source.

[@tammybyrd1054]

I've talked until I'm blue in the face too. My pantry has helped me soooo many times I cannot count. I've helped others and tried to show them also and it falls on deaf ears. I garden, dry, dehydrate, freeze, can etc. I admit I am afraid of pressure canning and have no experience in it. I am researching option but found two places nearby who run a cannery and you can take your jars and produce there and they help you and teach you....soooo guess where I am headed this year?! lol Who knew?! They've been so nice! :) This year I think we all need to be as prepared as we can for anything. We appreciate you! :) Our nation has forgotten the days of old when it was normal for people to be prepared, it was a way of life. We are spoiled now and no one knows how to do anything.

[@carlapickard6579]

I agree. Rose Red has been so inspirational! And, so have you. Thank you! I am no longer afraid to pressure can food!

[@annarobbins5183]

Amen. Thank you for your channel. Your conversation today reminded me of the childhood story about the little red hen. Nobody wanted to work, but everybody wanted to eat. "If you don't work, you don't eat." Joseph in the Bible prepared for several years before the famine came. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Be ready so you don't have to get ready. Keep up the good work. My husband and I watch you and Mr. Homestead Heart regularly. 😊❤❤

[@FloridaGirl-]

I actually bought 3 of the little red hen books on Amazon. And passed 2 out. 🤣

[@deborahelliott8460]

currently at 8*F here in KY. It's going up, but slowly. My hen got loose the other night, and it went down to single digits. I am happy to report, she is a tougher bird, she made it without being killed by the cold. I am so THANKFUL that God is watching out for my flock here. She is my best layer so having her die isn't something I can replace fast enough.

[@Kompalla1]

Well, I caved and my oldest daughter and myself chipped in and purchased some basics for my son to get through if he is careful for 3 months including some chicken, beef, beans, pasta meals breakfasts and lunch is on him. My neighbor's prayer group asked would I share my food storage and I said "NO" but I would share a meal. Sharing my food is finite and what would that serve? They said, "Oh, but you will take care of your family" and I said yes. But really, like you said, its on them at this point as I have been doing this since I was a young girl. My mom was a Natzi war surviver and she always had enough food to live on for months as just standard living from day to day. My sister is the same, she is not into food storage per say but you could live out of her pantry for 3 months easily. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I do share your channel sincerely from a serious prepper for the last 14 YEARS! Learning to first can from my Utah days as a young mom living there as a newly wed (we now live in Central Florida). Red reminds me of all my LDS neighbors who got me started in canning while living in Utah. Love her too.

Thank you, Mr. And Mrs. H. I appreciate you!

[@Votethepower]

Mrs. H, I completely understand your feelings about being concerned for family members. Yesterday, my niece called me during a snowstorm to tell me she didn't have any food for her and her two year old baby! I grabbed jars of food I canned and made the dangerous trek to the store for more supplies. Family sure can pull at your heartstrings.

[@sylviamaresca8852]

Pull at your heartstrings of you let them. Your niece is manipulating you. And she will continue to do it,too.

[@MaLiArtworks186]

Tell her you will help her make an emergency food tote but that you will not risk your life again by going out in a snowstorm.

[@kenandcathyonthefarm4020]

I really enjoyed this video Mrs. Heart. You gave a lot of great information and inspiration. I'll turn 70 years old this July and I've been gardening and canning myself and with my 2 sisters for almost 50 years. I also helped my Grandmother to prepare her food for canning when growing up too. So as long as I can remember I was in the garden and kitchen. I don't know what drives me to still do this, I really don't have to anymore, but, I choose to. I am so thrilled with this homesteading thing happening all over the country. Keep up your talking to as many people as you can. There will be a need in the future, I'm afraid, that it will be a necessity. God bless you and the work you are doing.

[@sdg4883]

Thank you, and Mr. Heart for all you do. ❤

[@rhale4270]

I have canned for years. My mama always said if it could be canned I would can it. LOL. If I see fruits on sale, I buy in bulk and can it. Meats, can them. People give me deer and bear and I can them. I plan to have a bucket garden this year God willing because I don’t have a place for a garden really and the fire ants will eat up my potatoes. I will also be buying small plastic pools for some of my plants. So many say the same to me about coming to my house if things get bad. I tell them they can do the same thing I do and if they don’t…sorry for them. Family or not, I have worked for years preparing for whatever may come. My daughters used to say I was hoarding until the TP shortage. Now they don’t say anything. I never struggled. Please keep doing what you guys do and I will keep watching. May God bless and keep you and Mr. H. ❤

[@jamesh.maloyjr.6940]

Try pure borax on the fire ants it may take 3-4 applications but it works. I use an empty spice shaker . The borax for washing powder you can just break up the clumps and put in shaker just sprinkle a layer over hill there day's later do it again. There are more eggs laid .

[@1982amb]

Thank you! Yes! I commented on another video about my own neighbors who have become and expect to stay dependent on me in emergencies. I have been trying to show many of them, but they don't want to do things because they want ME to do it. When it comes down to it, I'm only going to be able to help my family. I'm going to feel guilty because that's my nature, but I guess I have done what I could do.

[@teresahendley5659]

Hi Marie, I watch Rose Red also and I appreciate her "scientific" approach to preserving food safely. No rogue canning going on there. I like that she teaches how to use your powdered milk to make cheeses. Great video!

[@lanaromanoff4420]

Being prepared, I didn't have to run to 'town' not once. Good thing too, because our roads got closed. I couldn't get to town if I tried. I'm still set even if this goes on all week. I don't care who you are--It just makes sense.

[@sylviamaresca8852]

At this point if people aren't listening ,they are being willfully ignorant. When shtf, they will guilt trip you ,and use their children as pawns to get what they want. Shut the door in their face. I will harden my heart, swallow my tears.

[@pamelaporter3683]

Thank you, Mrs H, I sincerely appreciate your forthright teaching! I have been water bath canning for 30 years, intimated by pressure canning. Your explanations and humor let me know just how much you care about us. When you make a statement, followed up with the stink eye, i know you mean business! 🤨 My All American 921 remained in the box for weeks until i watched your canning bean video enough times to gain the confidence to proceed! I never thought to wash the daylights out of those beans! For years i would just rinse, like the package suggests before making the soup. In the beginning, through Rudy the Alaska Prepper (i thought if he can do it, what am i waiting for), i found your channel and then Rose Red Homestead, I've become a canning machine!God bless you and Mr H!

You've got to prepare for the unknown, storms, power outages or financial issues. No you can't prepare for everything that may come your way. If you're like me I'm always trying to think what I've forgotten and need to fill gaps. But I've done the best I can, and continue to do so. Ms. H you are instrumental in educating and inspiring many folks to take that first step then walk and some are now running toward sustainability. Also, I just wanted to tell you that you rock your hats and boggins. I always look like a boy.

"Be ready" is such excellent advice. Meanwhile, I have flat ground, clay and rock, and I have bought enough posts to surround the future garden. Each month I pick up a couple more raised beds.

[@trinamcgarvey-vw7ke]

What saddens me is that family won’t help, but will expect you to help them. Many are saying they can’t say no to their family, which is what they are counting on. How heart breaking for the one trying to prepare. I have told mine that they might not be able to make it to me. My daughter has a little in her pantry, which is more than she had before. Still worrying about her!

[@NoOneUKnow-c3y]

I just want to say thank you to you for showing me how to use a 5 gallon bucket to store food in several years ago. You helped me to figure out how to get started. Can you imagine what Noah went threw trying to warn people to prepare and they would not listen?

[@ElevateDreamers]

Where is this video

[@reginathompson9350]

I have been saying this also. In the end we all know what happen. God close the door and only he could open it.

[@NoOneUKnow-c3y]

It was several years ago, so I am not sure which one it was. I think she was storing beans. But, she also said you can store rice, oatmeal and the likes as long as the bucket is good for food storage. It was simple, get a bucket, dump the food in, add some bay leaves in it to keep bugs out and that was about it. Get the gamma lids if you can. I buy the buckets and then later as my stock grew I bought the gamma lids because at first I could not find them. So, some of mine have that lid and some don't. But, it hasn't effected my food either way. Now I am starting to switch to glass containers as I use up our food and replace it. I can use the buckets for so many other things too. But, when you buy in bulk, having a large container to put it in is great. @@ElevateDreamers

Thanks Mrs. H for reminding me of the importance of preserving food and being prepared. It's not as if I didn't learn from my Mother, Grandmother and all the Aunts. 2020 really put the "you better " in my life. I haven't stopped doing something to be ready for whatever since then. I just do gentle reminders to others and pray that they listen. Blessings to you and Mr. H 🙏🏽

Minus 24 windchill tonight. So glad for a woodstove. Furnace would struggle. Water dripping and faucets outside are double covered. The snow is slippery now. Been tripping over chunks. One more week then we'll hit 30 degrees. Can't wait. I'm piled up. Just doing what I have to outside refiling quail bowls a few times a day and mail. Chicken and winter squash tonight from the garden. First gardens over 30 years were turned over with a shovel and it was two large areas. Then filled a pickup with compost and spread it. It worked but can't do all that again. On my 2nd tiller and have raised beds.

Mrs H, thank you for teaching me so much. I am 69 and just started canning in July. I always did water bath my tomatoes but I wanted to can meat, and vegetables. I also learned to grow potatoes this past season from watching you and Mr. H. God Bless you both. This is my second year buying seeds from your seed shop. ❤

I planted some early heirloom seeds from sweet pepper plants that i grew last year! Its no big deal but it kind of is for me! 🎶I'm so excited 🎶That i just can't hide it🎶I'm about to lose control, and i think i like it!🎶

Your honesty is well welcomed. I have stocked and canned and continue to do so for myself, a young widow, and our 4 children. I spread the word of prepping to my co workers. They laugh and say they will just come to my house. Lol It will be a hard lesson for some. I just boxed up books to use the book shelves as storage space. No excuses to not have at least rice and beans put away . Thank you sweetie. God bless.

[@petethemeat9010]

This is Mrs Pete. Thank YOU and your husband for all that you have taught me. All the gardening, canning and homesteading has helped a lot. Thank YOU

Thanks Sis! I needed to hear this one. It's not just the pantry that they say no to. But, yes is yes, and no is no, no matter what the category. I stopped talking about the panty to most people. When they shut you off with I'm to busy for that. I'm done! There is one big thing we should remember, some people are watching, that you don't even know about! I was out watering my containers in the front, and a car stopped in the middle of the road, she rolled down her window and yelled out..HEY, I wanted to tell you that I drive by here every day and your little garden is so beautiful. She said it's encouraging me and the children to see it growing, and to say thank you. So, our light isn't JUST for family, friends or neighbors. It might be for that one lady and her children that simply passes by, everyday.

[@BrendaBodwin]

You got that right. Prepare for all things. 👍👏👏👏

[@doriechilds7087]

Its amazing how people are still so blinded at what is happening and how we are going to be affected. Yes ma'am listening i live with my wife who has dementia we have plenty put back but im praying for my grandkids because they parents can't see it so we are doubling down to make sure our five grandchildren can get fed. We love you and Mr H and I pray y'all get to keep up the good work y'all are doing. God bless you and keep you

1st! Hello Mr. & Mrs. H! Our pipes Froze & had landlord to unthaw them took 5 hrs. The Temps here got to - 5!!

[@JNoMooreNumbers]

At least you caught it before busted.

[@DimensionalHorse]

@JNoMooreNumbers yes indeed but a chunk of pipe got inside & now I can't drink the water 😥

[@demetricerichardson6606]

I have told my adult children, family members, etc. Some laugh and say 'well I know where to come if it hits the fan". They seem to be planning to leach off of those who are preparing. Others take it with a grain of salt!

[@sharonbice7490]

I use to help my grandmother can , they had very large farmland, and sold to all the locals. I started canning on my own 8 years ago. I love it! ❤️

[@Lightning77AThiker]

100% agree. I stopped wasting time on people with no interest in learning anything. But would probably show up in a crisis and expect me to do it all , while they lay around like it's a resort .

[@craftnpink]

Thank you, Mrs. H, you're very encouraging. I'm motivated to do something. God bless!
