Home grown goodness

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Yes! Awesome!

[@OceanFrontVilla3]

Those look like wild black raspberries.. blackberries are larger and do not come off from the stem, it stays inside.

[@shawnfox8002]

A peanut butter and blackberry sandwich just isn't as good if it doesn't have the seeds gotta have the seeds, yum yum.

[@plagueofbadgers]

It's a very satisfying feeling to produce food straight from the land and stock one's shelves. Canning is becoming a lost art. 🚜-Woooo!!

[@georgemartin5980]

There's some renewed interest in canning, there's even a couple books there with some funkier recipes if the Ball Blue Book gets too traditional for you!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Black berries are my favorite!

[@martinmeltzer2696]

This was a lot of fun to watch.. AND it brought back a lot of fond memories. Great! Now I'm hungry for some toast with butter and jelly!

[@ronniepate4315]

Great video Josh . I learn something from your shows all the time . That boil over has happen to everybody that has ever cooked . I'm glad you left it in . Most channels would never show that , being perfect and all .

[@theda850two]

" Just like Mom used to make" She always used a little Certo brand pectin for a sure-gel.

[@amandar7719]

I made wine a few years ago because I had enough blackberry jelly to last two years. It was DELICIOUS. Last year I experimented making a natural blackberry wine. No washing of the berries to rely on the natural yeast. Well. It turned out like a port. Can’t wait to offer it to DP guests when we’re allowed to socialise at home again.

[@janmilos5975]

Allowed to socialize ??? take control of your life sweetie.

[@chelemichele1524]

Always would say homemade better than store bought.. 1. You know what's in it. 2 you know how it's made 3. Its made with love😄 Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻

[@ronniejenkins4633]

Josh you are bringing back memories of when mom before she went to work don't forget to pick blackberries and I mean get plenty, and boy I am glad we did that jelly and jam sure tasted good on cat head biscuit and butter!!!

[@RoderickGMacLeod]

WOOOOOOO! Gotta be careful stirring boiling fruit and sugar. That stuff sticks like napalm. Take a look at the Zyliss stainless steel potato masher. It's heavy gauge so it doesn't bend, it's got a nice flat bottom, and it's got a silicone squeegee on one side for wiping down the side of a pot. Also, for people in other parts of the world, eye means burner, or hob. You can also make blackberry syrup for pancakes, waffles, and ice cream.

[@david.6040]

Blackberry’s are my favorite. Looks like a good spot to deer hunt too.

[@martineastburn3679]

Several varieties of black and red some are really good. Wow that is a berry patch !

[@bcgrittner8076]

Back in the 60’s I lived on a property that had various types of wild berries, rhubarb, asparagus, and other goodies. I always said if you went hungry out there, you must have been blind. Mom made lots of treats. We often had berries on our morning cereal. Mom’s strawberry rhubarb pie was delicious - second to none. That property is all developed now and I live with diabetes. Your video brought back some fine memories.

[@2Ryled]

My grandmother used to make us pick black raspberries & berries as little kids. She would always make jam. It was the best ever.

[@vaughn1804]

Ah memories of picking blackberries while walking to elementary school. You also look more fit and happier!

[@jimcurleyjr6968]

Josh, great video! Takes me back 65 years ago when my grandmother and her sisters made strawberry as well a blackberry jam & jelly to share with our entire family and friends! Thanks for the memory reboot! 👍👏😂🇺🇸

[@theodorerowe4483]

Blackberry jelly 😋 Always a great natural gift

[@benjaminstockton3917]

Enjoyed it a lot Josh brings back memories watching my mom and dad canning thanks for sharing I appreciate it

[@johnnycampbell5234]

Wild black berries are awesome, have a few bushes behind my house, makes a good snack when I’m back there cutting grass. Woo!

[@dorothydevinney694]

Josh you're such a good man.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Thanks Dorothy

[@Farm_fab]

We have wild wine berry raspberries growing here and they are quite delicious.

[@Dirtybird37]

I agree ! Wine berries are very underrated IMO. Read up on all there nutrition value. Best of all, they're FREE !

[@Farm_fab]

@@Dirtybird37 they are actually a non-native invasive species, but could be cultivated on a farm for their berries. Just as good as the local cultivars.

[@Dirtybird37]

@@Farm_fab yes they are from Japan. The Japanese love this berry and believe it helps keep weight off and detoxify your body. One of the few invasives I let grow on my farm.

[@veulmet]

They're berry good. Berry delicious. It makes me berry happy to eat berry jam.

[@chrisdover8014]

I've got a bush of blackberries growing in the middle of our blueberry bushes. It makes it easier to pick both. We have several bushes all over our property we get berries from almost every day.

[@herindoors3552]

Hi Josh, thank you, I have never made jam or jelly, but now I will try my hand at this.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

get yourself some sure gel and add to the mix for thicker jam/jelly fyi

[@shanebiggers8437]

I have a lot of memories picking black berries with my grandma I always ate as many as I put in the bucket 🤣

[@bernardjones6162]

You mentioned before she has come and gone about six times, sorry to see that happen! You are a hard working young man with a future! I am also in North Carolina just south of Raleigh and I am also a retired Air Force. Enjoy your videos and keep your chin up!

[@HoneyDoHomestead]

I've been thinking about making jam. Nice work man.

[@kittyco0n]

Enjoyed it, thank you! Now off picking my own bucket of blackberries! 😊

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Wonderful!

[@dhansonranch]

I was watching that pot and thought...Josh turn around!! LOL. Every canner has done it! Good job!

[@jmjbedpa]

you are so awesome. Simple living. Love it and live it. Thanks so much for ya video's, educational, professional and love the humor. Keep up the awesome living.

[@donnachristen5881]

My absolute favorite! Of course I don’t have access to wild berries so I have to rely on the supermarket and they don’t know the differences between jam an jelly. I want jam and every time I but jam it’s jelly so the next time I bought jelly and darn it all it was jelly! So disappointed cause I want JAM!!!

[@dsoldier9227]

If you want jam get the one that says preserves,, it's always jam 😊

[@ShaneZettelmier]

Awesome! I love wild blackberries. When I lived in Illinois we had them in our yard and in our neighbors yard and another neighbor was the pastor at the local church and his wife and she would make a deal with us. We go pick a bucket of blackberries and bring them to her in the morning and then we go fishing and come over that night for a fish fry and fresh blackberry pie. It was pretty awesome. They are amazing, once they’re established they grow like crazy. We used to cut maybe a third of them down every year so we always had some but they grew back so fast we had to be careful they didn’t take over the entire yard and we had enough to easily fill a 5 gallon bucket without much effort. I love having the wild plants. We had pear and peach trees and when we would goMow and work in the yard we just grab peaches and pears and blackberries. When I was a little kid my uncle in Illinois had a huge farm and he would take us out on the tractor and he had spots where he would grow tomatoes or different fruits and vegetables and he would just carry a salt and pepper shaker with him in a little leather holster and we pull over and just grab Big juicy tomatoes off of a wild vine and pour salt on them and eat them when they were still hot from the sun and it was amazing. If I had a decent size property I would definitely get some blackberries and other varieties and plant them where they could grow naturally. And I’m sure you can attest to the fact that they’re going to taste better than anything you can buy from the store coming fresh off the vine and wild like that. I’ve tried to make cobbler’s and pies out of stuff I bought from the store and it’s not even close. You don’t have to take the bugs out, that’s just free protein. Lol When you were talking about the difference between jam and jelly by straining it and how you need to let it solidify if you take it just before it solidifies you basically have syrup as well. You could strain it early and make some syrup and then put what ends up in the cheesecloth back let it cook some more and make the jelly and then the rest would be pretty much preserves right? Lol I like to cooking videos as well.

[@jacquelyndevitte4992]

Awesome video

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

thanks so much!

[@larrysmith6499]

Good to see you doing cooking videos again. You da man

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

More to come!

[@RickyVentures]

Hello from Minnesota! Home made goodies!

[@bigchew3149]

i have had poke all my life cooked with a egg n iron skillet Its always best when the poke is knee high or less !

[@josephinepaul6]

I plan on doing strawberries that I’m growing, blackberries that grow wild in the mountain and Concord grape this year.

[@Curtis1824]

We have fresh raspberries on our farm. They’re the best when you pick them yourself!

[@dougdavis4439]

Really enjoyed the video Josh. Reminds me of my grandmother making jam. I loved the bread clean up. Don't waste it! Lol. Wooooo

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Thanks Doug...and thanks for always being such a positive person here on the channel! Salt of the earth buddy!

[@jeffeubanks370]

I have Prime Ark Freedom thornless blackberries. We made our first jelly last weekend. And cobbler was delicious too.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

awesome!! The deer ate all my thorn less the first year we planted them!

[@deborahwade8485]

Delish! Fresh blackberries! Yummy!

[@chadhawkins1097]

I'm likin the Foodi Friday

[@roberttolliver3355]

Put a wooden spoon across the pot and it won’t boil over. Check it out. I like your videos keep them coming

[@narlee2014]

Great job! I bet those are gonna be delicious!

[@s.pursell8901]

The last time you had my mouth watering....... You were making cider in your garage.

[@mopedinthemalverns6661]

Ha! That piece of toast you wiped up that boiled-over jam looked just like a towel! Did you know you can sterilize your glass-ware etc (nothing metal) in a microwave overn? Just a few seconds kills anything. 'Pro-tip' as you'd say. Thumbs-up as usual.

[@brianforrest3377]

Dang Stoneyman you need to make some good blackberry wine 🍷

[@markdiulio2245]

Great video enjoyable to watch

[@jimcooney9019]

great video thanks for sharing

[@Donnybrook10]

I have the same Seiko. Nice watch

[@littlemogocreek]

Was hanging for this video. Learnt loads thanks mate.

[@janmilos5975]

Lay a wooden spoon across the pot - no more boil overs

[@LDhusky]

Interesting. Never heard that

[@CXA937]

I hate black berries about 98% of Oregon is taken over by blackberries. The bushes just don’t die. Also the black berries in Oregon are invasive.(There are some native ones here but they’re mainly Himalayan I believe.) love your videos by the way.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

lol....mow em down buddy!

[@brandimorgan9814]

Loving❤food Friday's 😋

[@springsy6210]

josh you are looking great. and good video.

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Hi...... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍

[@terrybarnett249]

Looks good 😊

[@memyselfandifarmer]

yes sir, always something different, tools, food, fix. not always the same old same old vidio's. dogs are the best!!!!

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

thanks buddy....yep one day fixing a tractor, next day at the race track..next day making jelly! Wooooo!!

[@davemi00]

Who doesn’t luv homemade jams !

[@peggycarper4040]

That’s the same way we make Grape jelly. Gramma called it “grape sunshine”

[@garygolden5262]

Yummy in my tummy. I can't wait to make BlackBerry cheesecake. Btw are you selling some black berry jam? If so I'd love some please mmmm

[@jankotze1959]

That jelly is good stuff, we made it from Maroela, this is a wild fruit in South Africa, maybe you have Amaroela cream in your liqueur stores, it came from here

[@kimberlymarshall5674]

Great video! Thank you

[@wendyc.5769]

Hey Josh! Love the new work uniform. Kinda swanky 🤗🙃

[@jtzr1]

How were you able to pick black berries with out getting redbugs/ jiggers???

[@jimjones5077]

One trick I learned as a child. Right after picking the berries, go home and wash in Octagon soap. It can be hard to find, but it will kill those chiggers dead.

[@majorpayne5289]

👍🇺🇸Awesome video Josh! Beautiful bushes full of berries. God is good & has blessed us so very much & knew we’d enjoy the fruits immensely! Your peeps are gonna love ya even more for such a delicious heartfelt 🎅Christmas gift!🇺🇸

[@dc0145a]

We have wild black raspberries here..... I planted blackberries, but no fruit this year. Last wkend hiked one of our local mtns 4 cups wild low blueberries. Mappppyoude muffins. Thanks for sharing recipe 😊

[@julieevans3110]

Black Raspberries or Black Berries sooo Goood!

[@thomasrobinson3704]

Just wait until all the Bears 🐻 find out 😱, where all the Wild Berries🍓 went to your House 🏠 💪😂👊lol

[@winxr1285]

Shumac flower or bud is also a natrual die it's like walnut hull when its boiled a dark black color

[@dannywalker1635]

I spent hours in the blackberries growing up in North Carolina and I had the chiggers to prover it.

[@Jdmsword14]

for the pokeweed/pokeberry the recipe is called poke salat and if you attempt to use it you want to use the early young shoots as it sprouts maybe several inches tall. Don't want to use the leaves as the plant matures and is flowering/fruiting. Also need to blanch or sautee several times as the whole plant is toxic i believe. I wouldn't suggest without doing some good research on the process

[@dmark6699]

Reminds me of the old song Poke salad Annie by Tony Joe White.

[@GMAlisa]

Jack of all trades👊looks yummy

[@WelcometomyCapeCodlife]

Ooh, that looks so good!

[@margaretthompson6391]

You can make a sumac sun tea with the seed head that is lemony in flavour. Also raspberry leaves make a great tea.

[@expatconn7242]

Excellent.

[@lilahnewton7940]

Awesome freshness!!

[@Chalz108]

I've also noticed the deer browse down my sumac in the late winter and fall when the leaves fall off. It's always browsed on. Even found that to be the case on public land

[@Dirtybird37]

Prolific season of berries here in PA also. The wine berries are coming in now. Going to be making some wine in the near future !

[@gregwitkamp5583]

You know Josh that its very hard to pick berries and bring them in to can. Because there in your belly

[@jGoodloejr]

Snakes love them too! Careful! lol

[@CyndiConnard]

Sumac sends me to the hospital!!! No way I'll get near it

[@denniscleveland669]

Sumac also makes a type of lemonade.

[@keithmiller6727]

💖 love learning Thank you

[@sarmadnajim4839]

Thanks for sharing

[@vanessaprovost1112]

Loved the bloopers 🤣🤣🤣

[@philipellis1865]

Did that many of years 👍❤️

[@robertkoons1154]

Grandfather's farm signs said "No Trespassing, No Hunting, No Fishing, No Berry Picking - X Y Kxxxx prop."

[@gerrykehoe9807]

I like Your shirt.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

thanks Gerry....this is a Truewerk shirt...they've got some very comfy clothing...link and a coupon down there in the video description..click show more! Very high quality clothing

[@notinterested9097]

lol I cant believe I watched the whole video bloopers included lol

[@petermavus4131]

Hunted pheasant that often had purple beaks from poke berries(here we call them ink berries) Hope that wasn’t poison sumac you’d really be in a jam...woooooo

[@Farm_fab]

The red seed heads from the sumac can be crushed and added to lemonade to make "Indian lemonade." www.pbs.org/food/recipes/sumac-lemonade/

[@rezyness]

Yum!

[@teveler]

I have personally never had poke salad but was always told that you had to boil it and drain the water 3 times, before it was safe to eat... Not sure I would even eat it then.

[@LDhusky]

Really good with scrambled eggs mixed in

[@charlesvaughn5055]

Josh, just wondering if you do strawberry jam and jelly the same recipe?

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

pretty much the same

[@roncorbin1500]

Love Black berries, do you have to add a thickener ?

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

no sir..but if you like you can add pectin to ensure proper gelling

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

This is a really good video Josh. I just planted a bunch of blackberry and raspberry so I'm hoping in a year or two I'll have tons of berries like yours. Man, your bushes are huge and tons of fruits. I sent the link to my wife cause we've never done canning before and want to get into it the more self sufficient we get. I built a huge garden this year, continued the orchard and I'm working on a custom octagonal chicken house. Your videos always keep me watching the whole thing I love it man. The boil over made me chuckle cause I've done that before. Should you prune the canes after you pick the fruit? I also have 3 huge white mulberry trees with tons of fruits - do u know when and how to harvest them by chance? Cheers, Chad from up in Ontario.

[@thomasyerbey337]

Great video Josh 🇺🇲 WOOOOOO 🇺🇲 I really enjoyed this video I think I make some black berry jam 🇺🇲

[@lindayoung2959]

They never give me back my ball jars!!!

[@bob_frazier]

Funny, same here, so they get plain jars that pickles and such come in. I had an Aunt Linda Young, wish you were her.😊
