Pantry Tour 2023- What's Inside My Pantry

[@ejack4961]

Looks like a great first start

[@jimmywood7817]

Thanks for the tour. Very impressive

[@daniellecomeau2996]

You are so right. Im in ma and have been gardening for 20+ years. Most challenging year this past summer to have a food garden.

[@suzannaj3834]

Loved everything in your food pantry, my favorite was the canned pineapple ❣️which is a great idea because PAs aren’t that expensive they do go on sale a lot. Yes Florida is about fresh seafood and farmers markets. We have the best of both worlds down here. ❤

[@Swamp-Fox]

Thanks for the tour! Can't wait to see the upcoming content!

[@lizhayes7474]

Thank you

[@barbaradavidson1950]

Your in Florida during winter. Have a bed for sweet potatoes (SWP) and dig it up in December. Any SWP tubers or tiny spuds throw back in and top with compost. It is left to the weather and with the exception of last year (rainy/floody) they usually do well with no/low maintenance.

Greetz from the Netherlands!!!

[@Backyard.Archery]

Wow… jealous and inspiring.

[@JuliaJulia007]

Wow. New sub. Liz you are an inspiration 😊

[@tinagale7840]

When growing peas, I use pig panels/cattle panels so that the peas can be trained to climb the panels and the I grow carrots around the outer edges of where the peas are growing. they seem to do well for me in this fashion in Colorado.

[@lizhayes7474]

That’s what I normally use

[@starrmiller8737]

Your freeze dryer tray rack is upside down. The orange heat mats go on top. Beautiful pantry

[@lizhayes7474]

😂🤦‍♀️ that’s probably why I’m always griping about the trays not sliding in easy. Thanks for pointing that out .

[@marieparks5674]

That’s what my mom always did, canned everything she could, even if it was a ton. Because you might have a bad crop for a couple of years

[@cynthiastandley5742]

That's funny. I do that too. Make wine and mead, but I rarely drink it. It's just so fun to make. 🤣

[@lizhayes7474]

😁

[@jessicasand9381]

Same on the peas. Grew those last summer and I won’t grow again.

[@rnupnorthbrrrsm6123]

Real life is what we want, always show us your real pantry !!! Okra is my favorite too ❤❤❤❤ I live in zone 3 in northern Minnesota so I have to start it in the house and plant it next to the south side of my house or garage for extra heat, makes it hard to grow a lot of it but I get a little! Blessings

[@feedingit]

I LOVED the tour - how smart to use your pump house. Brilliant. I’m driving (well passengering)for the next 7 hours and will be binge watching your channel! Thank you for sharing!

[@tinagale7840]

I froze a lot of celery and dried a bunch of celery. I go through a lot of celery powder.

[@windyloweryking1826]

Y'all prefer Rollo's or Pattie's? My parents just trimmed their fig tree back a lot if y'all are interested getting some of those cuttings to root. My sister is going plant some all around her property in VA to give the wild life something to eat other than her growing garden.

[@lizhayes7474]

We usually go to Joe Pattie’s but we just got oysters from a place called Maria’s so I think we are gonna switch. Joe Pattie’s is getting very touristy!

[@a-1insurance423]

I would be interested if I could I would be willing to pay if you would be able to thank you

[@soleillebolduc2448]

You may not have a super fancy pantry but you are rich with your canned and preserved goods. I aspire to one day have half of a pantry like yours. We had a tough year in Oregon too so I didn't get my usual tomato harvest that I love to can. Thanks for sharing and cheers to a better year in the garden!

[@lizhayes7474]

Thank you

[@eddiec4058]

Enjoyed your video. We're in Tennessee. We don't have the size garden that you have but we do try to plant a few things. Our tomatoes,peas and beans did poorly also. Looking forward to your next one.

[@lizhayes7474]

Thanks

[@FolseFarms]

Canning goals for sure. Thanks for sharing your storage. I live seeing what others store

[@822ab]

Went down a rabbit hole and stumbled upon this video. Your pantry looks great and your voice is so nice and calming. Good stuff.

[@lizhayes7474]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@hunterc1168]

Thank you for the tour! Super interesting to see how your family prepares for the off-season. I'm on the east coast, and even I noticed some crops not performing like they have in the past. Tomatoes and radishes were especially bad this year. My garden is much smaller scale, of course.

[@lizhayes7474]

Yeah it seems like all over was a rough year for gardening.

[@sarahknight9291]

Awesome video Liz!

[@lizhayes7474]

Thank you!! 😁

[@SkateRock7]

I've tried squash cornbread dressing. It was amazing. Love all that elderberry everything. You wouldn't happen to have any deer tallow to bring to FL would you?

[@lizhayes7474]

That sounds good. I’ll have to give it a try. And no we don’t have any tallow here.

[@brianc7782]

What an amazing pantry! Such variety. I am gonna be on pins and needles waiting for your egg recipes. I would love to see a breakdown of the bulk storage in the bucket, and pickled egg recipes. Just haven’t found a great recipe yet.

[@lizhayes7474]

It’s in the works.

[@johnd0e25]

I hope to have a pantry like that one day!

[@keithpattison6763]

Hello Liz, wow, it is like looking into a supermarket. I can remember in the mid 1950´s, near London, my grandmother still used to store eggs in waterglass, which was a leftover from wartime egg rationing. Moved to Australia in 1959, now living in South Australia, never gone back to the UK, although we did spend some time on the east coast of the US in 2008.

[@tinagale7840]

What's your recipe for pickled eggs?

[@ArcherADK]

Great video, Liz! Can ya'll do more wild game cooking videos? I run out of ideas after steaks and roasts, and am looking for ways to not get tired of eating red meat.

[@lizhayes7474]

We will be doing some more.

[@southernboycookin5383]

Hmmm. Sweet potatoes are easy and can be easily stored. Not sure what happened there. Peas? Also very very easy. Are there varieties that are better suited for your region? Your soil looks awesome, so that can't be it.

[@lizhayes7474]

I did have potatoes that were for short season. Maybe too fertile of soil. We had huge vines but small potatoes.

[@Nunya_Binness]

Great video! I’m jealous of your level of preparedness. Are your pickled eggs pressure or water bath canned?

[@lizhayes7474]

They are water bathed.

[@a-1insurance423]

Hello Liz I'm also a Hayes I was just wondering if your husband and my husband are related I also have a boxer your dog is beautiful

[@tinagale7840]

Just out of curiosity...why do you split your time between two different states? I'm sure it's in one of your other videos and I'll look for it. Thanks!

[@lizhayes7474]

Because we don’t like the dreariness of winter in Idaho and we don’t like the heat of summer in Florida. Now we have the best of both

[@akasutton]

how do you keep your canned goods from freezing? do you run a heater in the winter?

[@lizhayes7474]

That building is really well insulated. So the only time we do anything special is if it’s going to be in the single digits and then we just turn the light on in there . We have a flood light as the bulb and that keeps it just above freezing. Even when it gets to the negative digits that bulb works well.

[@BackupUp-d8h]

You said labador tea.... my ears heard labrador tea😅😅
