@hannahgrace5225: I agree, and I appreciate your positive outlook! 💜 I always think it's pretty hilarious when people make snarky remarks about sponsored content or ads as they watch the content for free... and for the record, I don't create or work via social media, just love being inspired by several creatives who do. 🌞🌺

So glad you are hooked on canning and preserving. I too started in my twenties and can so relate to the feeling of putting the jars in my pantry.

I just want to encourage you all in the comments. You all have just as much beauty in your lives as Isabel you just have to seek it. Then, Over time you can’t help but notice it. Also on simplicity: make your life reflect what you value. Isabel thanks for depicting beauty and simplicity in such an inspiring manner.

[@claudiahowick]

this is so beautiful

[@theluckyeaglesplate2781]

What you said in the end of the video made me cry and realize it is true.. we only have now and ,,maybe one day in the future I will be happy" is as you said toxic, we have to take full advantage of our lives NOW :) while it is important reaching our goals, but the ones which are really in alingnment with us and they are guiding us to be our better selves. Living the life what you live, rural life is a dream of many of us, well, even hiking or just simply to be surrounded by nature where we can heal and be our best versions, to return what we truly need. Thank you for showing the life so simple yet so beautiful and cherishing for the soul, we can learn from it so much and apply those simple things in our life, you are a great reminder for us to focus on the priorities which are the simplest and yet the most beautiful things :) ♥

[@riapoole2850]

Loved this. Reminded me of my Aunt Marilyn. She always made apple butter every year. It was SO good. It was one of my all time favorite things ever. She would also make homemade blackberry jelly. She would put some in a bowl and stir a little fresh butter into it. Then we would dip her homemade biscuits into it. Two of the best things and memories ever from my childhood staying at their home. Sadly she passed away a couple of years ago. I miss her horribly. Treasure it all. It goes by so damn quickly. TFS.

[@judyk.657]

Hey just sharing. When I moved to the country the thing that worked well for my long driveway was a tractor with a large snowblower attachment. Awesome to get the snow away and not just piled up. Bonus in spring summer, attachments for working the soil get swapped out. Thanks for sharing your artful videos. Ps is Black ok? 💐🙏

[@nickis.artworld9557]

[@ellisasong7522]

I'm also in a similar period of change and in awe of the beauty of the natural surroundings that I get to witness and experience every day. When you were harvesting those rasberries and making that jam it reminded me of an old poem I read somewhere that said the best things in life arrive when they are meant to and those rasberries shook off the branch like they were meant to. As I look around the room I'm in now I'm reminded that all of nature is in a constant state of growth just like your videos. Thank you for being such a light Izzy you are the cabbage to my cap chay.

[@shakenama]

I get so drawn into her videos - maybe it's the amazing editing - or maybe it's soothing relaxing music - or the beauty of the gorgeous scenery. Thanks Isabel

It can't be a better start to the weekend. Your videos are always so relaxing and calming. I always feel very grounded after watching your videos. So much so that you have inspired me to start my own youtube channel. I can't wait for your cookbook!

[@amyk3020]

Isabel, I was wondering about the kitten and where she was. So sorry to hear about the leg and her bug bite....so scary to think the pain and discomfort she had. Glad to hear that she will be ok in time. Not a joke with the bugs and spiders nowadays. Love your cooking and I want to jump through the screeen to have a bite. Reminds me of my farm days. So amazing to see the yield on your property. I can't get over how much you pick and still more is there. Thanks for sharing, we love to see Logan

[@mycall1949]

It's good to see you doing things that you enjoy; we love so see the preparation of your meals and how you preserve products that you grow. Its so refreshing to see you and Logan together, I feel he is an important part of you life. I noticed that you are preparing us for the winter months not being at the tiny house; I'm happy to hear that, because it is such struggle producing enjoyable videos in a harsh environment. Again, great video, your beauty shines through your productions.

[@purseypurslane]

I think the only thing Logan really adds to her videos are he has a great appetite and she likes cooking for him, especially the desserts. Otherwise her vids are great on their own

[@asmith5090]

I will have withdrawals in the winter not seeing her videos 😢

[@jimthain8777]

As far as a driveway goes, it doesn't have to go all the way to the tiny house, so long as it gives you a safe place to park your vehicles off the main road. So decide how far you want to go in, and then cover that area in gravel. and that should get you through this winter. You can always expand it in the future. I hope that is a helpful thought.

[@dekotahrunninghorse9372]

Thank you sooo much for this beautiful video. Congratulations to Logan on his music! He has such an incredible gift! I love apple butter but haven’t had it since I was young! There’s nothing like farm to table food . Your so inspirational and amazing ! Wishing you abundant blessings! ❤

[@sdwilliams1986]

Glad your kitty is OK. My pup broke her femer in August. They said amputation or euthanasia...I said...NO! So I went into major debt to save her. She had surgery...SO STRESSFUL. She's alive and has her leg. Scary. THANKFUL that we get to follow you on your journey of LIFE ❤ Beautiful Story Telling

If you can’t stay for winter, don’t leave your canned food because if it freezes it could bust your jars and leave you a mess to come back too.

Im a 13 year old girl, busy with completing school to get a good job that im happy with and get good money from. But tbh, I dont want that. I always felt like I was meant for something else. Im not meant to be working a 9-5 everyday. I wasnt born onto this beautiful world for that. I want to live a live that im happy with, close to animals and nature, my two favorite things. Being independend and making everything on my own. I know that thats pretty hard and not all rainbow, but its a million times better than wasting the 80 years we have to live. We only live once, and I want to make it worth. I absoloutely love your livestyle and I desperately want to live the same! You are so calm, connected to nature and we always see the happy side of you. I want this to be my live. I absouloutely love your content, and you inspire me and others everyday! Thank you Isabel ❤

🍂The most memorable time in my life was house sitting for two years at my ex in-laws cabin in the rural area of Sedro-Woolley WA, the scenery was absolutely breathtaking and during the fall season my ex love, our two sons and I would visit the Alpaca ranch while drinking hot cider. We also enjoyed watching the deers drink from the creek alongside the cabin and the bats were intriguing to look at as well as the stars. Your lifestyle is so beautifully romantic and refreshing to watch. Peace and love. 🌼 Happy upcoming Fall. 🍃 🍂 🍁

Content ideas- I don't think you realize how extraordinary your editing skills are, or even setting up shots etc... I could literally watch you clean your kitchen and be just as content. I wouldn't mind some videos that were a recipe or cooking with you or even just watching you cook something beginning to end with music in the background. A soap making video. I'd love a whole cabin cleaning before the winter video. Again, bc your natural ability to make a shot, I'd watch it even if it was an hour time lapsed with music. I wouldn't mind you making a to do-list and we follow you down it. Just like... flies on the all. Excited for the sewing project/loom projects that winter will bring 🥰 I think we're happier with simple than you think. But I'm hard on myself too, so I get it.

[@michygoss7148]

Hi Isabel - you could possibly invest in your own snow blowing machine and do your own driveway. That is a great long term solution. Not sure costs of having someone plough your driveway each time, each year, plus what it would cost to widen your driveway. Plus, you would then have a machine that you could make use of all year long for projects around the farm. It sounds like you have a lot of family that uses that land, so everyone could chip in on the machine, and chip in on ploughing the driveway as well. We have a bobcat (skid steer) with a snowblower attachment and it is amazing. We live in upwards of 6’ of snow each winter. And the bobcat is an essential tool around our property all year long. I think a tractor or a backhoe could also be a great option. Good luck in finding a solution! ❤

[@ChelzWildLife]

Thank you Isabel for another heartwarming video. And I just bought apple butter 2 weeks ago. Then after reconnecting with an old friend I found out she makes her own apple butter lol. I'm totally looking forward to your winter videos too. Enjoy your last bit of warm weather. 😊❤

[@KeikoNecesario]

Can you do a little kitchen tour soon? And if it is okay also, can you let us in to where to store your food prep for winter hehehe thanks Isabel! Love your videossss

[@Banagal]

Fall is my favorite season too. It just refreshes me after the hot summer. I especially love the fall colors. I enjoyed the canning of a bounty of fresh produce.

[@EmelieBoss]

In sweden something that is used a lot is a "snow-thrower". It is like a snow vaccum that runs on gas/diesel that come in all sizes, for using by hand or by a tractor. Many use the little one for driveways and they are not very expensive. Maybe you could put your car on the part that you clear. Or/and buy a snowmobile. A one only made for some easy commuting and no tecnical mountain driving is not very expensive either, and there are sleds for them to bring all your stuff in.

[@augustseven9243]

[@kathyphillips7515]

Isabel Don’t ever forget you’re the storyteller that we all love ❤️, and the beauty comes out in your videos even when you don’t know it. I appreciate it! There is something said about living with quiet and solitude, and leaving the rush of this crazy world behind. Understandable that you may not always want to be making Content and participating in this electronic game. Your stories are magic though and I sincerely hope you continue on this path. I highly advise hiring someone to come put your driveway in, it is totally worth the money spent. An add on to the tiny house or plan for a bigger house. These are things that are so worth your money. Looks like Cole never moved into his house so maybe you can take it over! Thank you for all you do❤️

I really want to suggest a tractor with a plow, some of the small ones are very, very efficient, small and offer a lot of work load. 200cc UTV With Snow Plow ATV (an example), depending on your vehicle perhaps a snow plow attachment, or perhaps a truck for winter. There are many ways to consider doing an exchange perhaps for the winter months with someone more in town. Just thinking outside the box.

[@awesomepants4401]

Fall is my absolute fav! The nostalgia it brings. Really indescribable.

Put a plow on a four wheeler! I used to have a very tight driveway in Upstate, NY and we always used a four wheeler. It worked GREAT!

[@mschannigan8831]

I truly feel that you should put a small L shaped addition to the back of the tiny house, kind of behind the bedroom, that would be the bathroom maybe with a small laundry area... You would not feel so cooped up in winter.

[@iloveMYMOM1915]

The final line made me cry because it's so true. When I was unhappy, I used to have the idea that once I do this, I'll be happy, and when I do things later, I feel like this is it; I'm meant to be happy. However, the important thing is to be present and grateful. I've been watching Isabel for years since she started this channel, and while I still aspire to be like her, I do so in my own unique way. She may not be aware of the impact she has, particularly on women in their early 20s. I adore her.

[@Wyldyflower]

If you and your family can’t buy your own tractor plow, i think the next best option is snowmobiles. Just so you can get out quickly if needed. Also get a snowblower for the areas around your little house and a path to the structural house. It will make your life so much easier. You get way too much snow to be shoveling every year. Also girl GET YOUR FIREWOOD READY AND COVERED 😂😂😂😂 this is my friendly reminder remember shoveling it off. Don’t relive that horror hahaha. Good luck 🖤
