An Unexpected FINAL HARVEST! Setting the 2024 Homestead Garden up for Success

Hey Friend, its time to set the garden up for a successful 2024 growing season and put it to bed for its long winters nap. We are adding lots of high quality, organic compost and tidying up the beds. There is a frost fast approaching so everything that can be harvested is coming inside. There was one harvest in particular that was super surprising and fun!
Thanks for joining us,
Kelsey

Yes! You can totally take the full trusses of green cherry tomatoes inside and hang them to ripen. I hung all of mine from an old coat tree last year and called it my winter tomato tree. 😁 I would go into that room every few days and harvest all the ones that had turned red and was left with very few green ones by the time they were done.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Awesome! Thank you!. Its fun going to the basement and having a "produce" department 😆

Immature loofahs are edible. The green tomatoes make excellent salsa verde. Typically you pull peanuts after the first frost or the leaves have turned yellow.

[@juliespencer1164]

Loved this a great unexpected Harvest. xxx

[@setapart6937]

I’m from MI (zone 6A/5B) and we had our first frost Sunday night. At around 9 PM Sunday I saw that the temp outside was 33! I ran outside and gathered all the tomatoes I could. In a way I’m ready for winter. The deer have decimated our garden so I gave up on our fall garden a while ago. Our plan is to expand our garden next spring and put in a fence. I’m so excited! I have my MIgardener wishlist ready to go for 11/1 when his 2024 seeds go live. Do you have plans on a 2023 garden recap video? If not, I’d love to know what did well/not so well in your garden and what you’d plant again. Great video Kelsey and happy belated birthday Eleanor 🥳

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I’m ready for winter too, I think 😂 I’m just ready for slow. That is so exciting for next years garden! I need to go do my wishlist too, ahhh I love this part. The dreaming and planning while it’s cold. Yes! I’ll be doing a garden recap and plans for next year! Thank you so much friend 🤍

[@ellymae2006]

Yes here in the south we leave the peanuts lying on the ground for a couple of days then bring them inside to finish curing on the plant.

Now I know! We'll see if these turn out!

THANK YOU! I'm so glad someone shared in my excitement!

[@bearzhere]

I loved when you dug the nuts and said " That is nuts" HAHA! Love the excitement that Eleanor had over the beautiful colors of the raspberries and how Grant was messing in the mower, but didnt want to drive it! I grow Sweet Annie every year, it is my very favorite scent in the whole world. If you can cut them when the flowers are yellow the scent is just amazing! Oh the mountain in the background! I am still looking daily for something close to Gettysburg, but oh those prices! My garden was done the end of Sept and I sure do miss the extra grow season! Thank you for sharing everything with us. Blessings!

I grow peanuts for peanut butter but I also boil them. I’m from Georgia, it’s basically a law that I boil them 😂

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

LOL, ok so how does one eat a boiled peanut? As is or is boiled for a use in certain ways? Can you tell I’m not from the South? 😂

[@Just-Nikki]

@@seedandsparrowhomestead lol, soak them in the shell for 8 hrs or overnight. Drain them, stick em in a crockpot with some salt or some cajun seasoning -I would try salted first - about a 1/2 Tbs per cup of nuts. Cook them on low for 6-8 hours, your looking for soft but not mushy peanuts so start checking them after 6 hrs. Let them cool a little then crack the soft shells open with your teeth, suck out the juice then open it up and eat the peanut. Good stuff 😀

[@jugnoothelight8662]

thanks for sharing

[@iartistdotme]

Your garden put to bed looks fantastic! I tried peanuts this year also - just for fun. I had a huge pest problem and the one bucket I tried just didn't make it. I know that all the Florida farmers around here pull the peanut plants to expose the peanuts to dry right in the rows before they bring them out of the fields. We had gotten a huge batch years ago and laid the pulled plants on picnic tables inside our fenced in yard to dry. It also would have worked well BUT our hog of a horse decided to jump the fence and EAT THEM ALL! He of, course, got foundered and my husband walked him all night in the rain keeping him from rolling and getting his intestines knotted up. Come morning, our hog horse was just fine and didn't try to roll - amazing. He also ate a 50 lb bag of molded dog feed by pawing at the closed shed door but he managed to pull through that also. I thought you may want to know about drying the raw peanuts. If you plan on boiling them, you may not need to dry them first (like they do potatoes and onions) since they will be boiled but I know nothing about that. I know you need to roast them in order to make into peanut butter but haven't done that either. Bugs and a hog/horse prevented any trials I planned before giving up completely. LOL Loved your video today - experimenting has it's downfalls but is so exciting and I love to watch you try new things. Your kitchen will l look so very pretty with the hanging beauty. Have you ever done things with calendula? I found a bottle of dried flowers while cleaning up today - had planned on having more but I can't seem to grow it well - maybe it is the Florida heat. Anyway, I dried the flower petals and bought some carrier oil but now need to do my research. You are a wonderful instigator!

[@brookegraham3823]

Wow! I need to grow peanuts!! So fun! I’d love more info on how you’re going to do it and how you use them!

While watching this video, I was canning swisschard! My family loves the mildness of this particular green. I even had a 3 year old child in my childcare request swisschard pizza on our menu again before we get a frost! Can you believe it, nearly the end of October here in Central Maine and we still haven't had a frost!! I believe our first anticipated one is around November 02 this year!!! Years ago, I lost a garden to a heavy frost at the end of August!!! I am amazed at all you do in the garden, in your home, in food preservation, for your family. You provide an incredible inspiration through your thoughtful and peaceful presentations. Thank you Kelsey. Blessing and continued prayers for good health.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Aw thank you so much! I truly appreciate your kind words of encouragement 🤍 Too funny about the Swiss chard, it is a power house of nutrients. It always makes me smile hearing little one choose the good stuff ☺️ Blessings friend 🤍

Your garden is just beautiful! I might have to try peanuts next year, I’m in zone 8b. I had to dig my dahlias up in September because the deer were eating all of the leaves off and I didn’t have any flowers. So I just put them in 5 gallon buckets in my garden which is fenced. I was worried without leaves the tubers would die. They have leaves now and even some blooms. I’m going to store them and then put a fence around them for next year. Keep up the great work. 😊

What a productive few days you had in the garden! I’ve had this fascination with peanuts too! I so felt your joy when you pulled the plants up! 🧡 I’ve got peanuts on the wish list for next year but towards the bottom of the priority list. Creating space for more medicinal herbs is highest on the list. I have a Tabasco plant still in the garden with peppers on it. I didn’t know you could bring in the whole plant 😮 but I’ll have to do that and see if they’ll ripen. My cayenne peppers have all been harvested so I won’t worry about that but I sure appreciate knowing this for next year. Great unexpected harvest and clean up in the garden. Have a blessed week. Happy 🎈 Birthday 🎂Elenor! 🥳🦕 🦖

I understand the struggle to find the common interest. My husband and I have been married for 42 years. He is a very hard worker and helps me outside a lot! I couldn’t do it without him. But his involvement is more about supporting me, and appreciating what comes from the work and not about it being his passion.

People have enjoyed loofah in dishes for thousands of years. While the loofah is referred to as a fruit or gourd - it can also be enjoyed as a vegetable. ⁴ Loofahs are part of the cucumber family and can be cooked like squash, boiled, sauteed, pickled, or even eaten raw.

Do you have a freeze dry machine that you recommend? I’m interested in getting one but they seem to be astronomical? Would love your input!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I have a Medium size Harvest Right with a Premier pump. You’re right, they are astronomically priced but can be worth it. I have a lot of produce coming in and it is a great aid in preservation for me! Takes a lot of the work away from me resulting in more time and a better preserved product. If you like to prep food it will pay for itself in no time compared to buying the emergency freeze dried food online! You do have to consider though, if you are really just using it to preserve food to eat in the short term how you will use that food. It’s a mindset shift, knowing how to use it and considering the time to rehydrate and the texture differences. Any specific questions let me know! ☺️

[@CottageontheCorner]

So this is probably a dumb question, but as this is the first year that I have really been serious about my garden, expanded it and even planted a fall garden, I have no idea what it means when it’s your first frost date. Is that when the temperature dips below 32° like what is the first frost? Because it’s been getting into the upper 40s here at night😅
