Six Month Grocery Haul Under $300! & Berry Picking @ Remote Alaska Cabin

[@DynamiteDaynaD]

That is a tree structure and that's made by Sasquatch. It's to indicate their territories. Remember you found the dead birds? And then also remember you heard the sounds on your roof last winter? I know it sounds crazy but those are all the classic signs. They also do tree bends.

[@terrywilliams8585]

Annie, you are an absolute roll model for girls and women alike. I admire and respect your way of living. Thank you for being adventurous, brave and courageous. You have my utmost respect. Stay safe and be careful

[@joanmerriken9216]

Love the info on shaking the cream before freezing. A good bonus! Take good care. You’re an inspiration to all the lone women out there, irregardless of where we live…….

[@kristinamusantejd735]

You are amazing. Alaska is incredible. Thank you for showing us. ❤

[@Belle501]

You have a bigfoot. They've been around forever. Teddy Roosevelt saw them hunting. I believe Daniel Boone did as well. I'd listen to Sasquatch Chronicles. Lots of people from your state with experiences. If you want to see your subs soar, mention your experiences (if any) in a video. So many people are having encounters with them lately.

[@Joseph-k3f]

You'd think finding heavy cream that is just heavy cream would be easy. Nope. I have to make a special trip to a store I don't normally frequent in order to get it.

[@fruitcake4508]

Wow from the looks of the poop and the tree branches marking the area you my have a big foot.

[@PoorMansHomesteadCanadaBC1961]

I leave the very small potatoes in my ground because they keep coming up every year I've only had to plant purple potatoes once out of three years they keep seeding themselves But our ground does not freeze as hard as yours so they don't rot and I cover my potato gardens with maple leaves cause I leave my potatoes in the ground all winter and just go out and dig them when I need them coldest gets here is minus 10 used to get a lot colder not anymore

[@Teddydoggie]

I have been buying powdered heavy cream. I prefer Anthony’s brand, good flavor, easy to mix with warm water. I mix up one pint at a time. I have a few pint and quart glass bottles shaped like the old fashioned bottles from the dairy. Both items from Amazon. The powdered cream keeps for quite a while unopened and after opening I keep it in an airtight glass jar in the refrigerator. There are no additives, ingredients list only cream solids.

[@juliamarple3785]

I have some also. I don't use it a lot, but sometimes it really comes in handy.

[@bessiemann7468]

Brave woman to go out in the woods alone. I enjoyed watching this even tho I was late

[@DisabledandPrepping]

That lake area where you went fishing is so beautiful. I just love alaska it's so beautiful. That is a great way to use those little tiny potatoes. I like the fact that you don't waste anything. And you're right, couple of handfuls or even a handful would make a meal when you add it to something else.

[@rushingwindmountain]

Alaska the beautiful and love to see you making the most of your surroundings and enjoying the fruits of the land.

[@originalsixx]

😊 I was just coming to your channel to see if you posted and got the notification of a new video! I'm shipping a box out to you on Monday after i get off work. I got ya a few caramels to get you through the winter. 😊 Thanks for the video, your place is so beautiful! I hope to see Alaska some day.

[@AloneinRemoteAlaska]

Hi Tiff! I did get the box; Thank you! I will show it in this week's video. It totally made me giggle with delight as I opened it. Very thoughtful and kind of you to send them. I, too, hope you get to see Alaska some day. Thanks for watching and commenting. Much appreciated. 🤗💗🐺

Enjoyed the video; Alaska is beautiful in fall. You can make some great cabbage rolls with those tender outer cabbage leaves! You also got a great potato harvest for the first year.

[@offgridhomesteadingmcgarve1494]

Nothing like exporting you properly lines. know your yard. 👍 What a beautiful fishing spot..!! I love the small potatoes, use it all for sure. Yep 140-160 in my compost bins. What a lovely garden.I have a friend back in Utah that has a huge farm and he dose a lot of freeze dried milk for me. He tried to do some cream for me but it doesn’t freeze dry very good. All of us are trying new ideas to save things. Some work some don’t. That’s half the fun. 👊 Have a wonderful week..!!

[@danielleterry2331]

I hear you girl I don’t waste anything I grow, small or not potato is a potato, same with bell peppers😊 I pulled out all my bell pepper plants and got 34 they were medium to small but still edible. Same with my broccoli and cauliflower leaves I dehydrate those to go into soups along with carrot leaves. It still puts nutrients into soups .

[@bettyadkisson1681]

Those little bitty baby potatoes are the bomb!! We cook them the way you said and they are so good.

So glad you didn't meet that critter wot pooped. Probably wasn't a squirrel, lol. I dry the beetroot leaves, carrot tops, spinach and powder it into Green Powder. Keeps and is very good.

I've grown tiny potatoes and they are delicious, I cook them whole with extra virgin olive oil. salt, pepper and mixed herbs. Absolutely delicious. Time flies, hard to believe it's time for you to prep for the winter. Thanks for the video, stay safe. 🍃🍂🍁🍁🥰💗✝🍃🍂🍁MAGA

Ms Alone, did you start your cabagges indoors until the weather warmed up? If so, how early did you plant indoors? BTW, I’m really impressed with your adaptability to that environment.

[@mikeelek9713]

I haven't check your channel in a bit. It's great to see that your harvest is coming along. That landscape is VERY picturesque. Winter is on the way, and I think that each year you're better prepared than you were the year before. That's a good thing, for sure. And good idea to have a sidearm and a revolver. Revolvers don't jam.

I really do think you would benefit from carrying a Machete, so when you are out in your wooded area you could easily chop down the larger branches but also little branches etc. It works better than a knife or small axe xxxxx

Good Mornin' Alone, Another wonderful video- you managed to shove so many things into it! Love your sceneries! Just gaspingly beautiful! So glad you got in another shot at fishing; and you're not giving up on that! What an adventure to get lost looking for your property marker! So I guess you found berries and the like in the scat? Excited for you that you got some homegrown veggies on your first season growing there. (love those beet greens!) "You go girl"..Til next time, Love to you and Kenai

You rock!!!! I have learned so much with just this one video!! Thank you for these gardening tips!!! xoxoxo

[@johninalaska9563]

Hi Alone, very informative video. I just want to mention, that is not Bear scat or Big Foot poop. It's Moose poop, this time of the year Moose don't excrement pellets. It's from eating an array of leaves, aquatic plants and young twigs. This makes their droppings wetter and become clumps. Eventually, it will turn into the pellets you normally see. Bear scat are small solid clumps on top of each other.

So good to see you and watch a video of yours. I've been MIA for a while as I pack up my dad's house. The berries you picked looked divine. You're lucky to have ligonberry on your property! I love ligonberry jam, so delicious! I can't remember if you have a dehydrator or not but that would be helpful with all those lovely berries. Take care of yourself and better luck next time while fishing. 💓👍😁

[@debrabyrd5876]

It is so beautiful there.

[@BuckeyeBigfoot]

Always love to see video of your area - it's incredibly beautiful. Love the update on the garden, too. I didn't get to do any gardening this year. I would consider the 6-month haul a triumph; you've planned well, you've managed resources/time well and you have stored up your pantry very well. I know once that garden starts producing, that pantry will be bursting at the seams. (even more so than it already is!) Also - THANK YOU for pointing out the additives in the Great Value heavy whipping cream. We use a lot of heavy whipping cream here and I have never thought to look at ingredients. I will now! It's a sad world when even heavy whipping cream has other ingredients. ALSO - I LOVE your plaid skirts. They look thick, warm and comfortable. I do a lot of sewing, and I was recently looking at patterns on sale and I was looking for a good skirt pattern similar to that. I see the practicality and use in that style, plus it just looks fabulous. But I didn't see anything that suited my fancy. Maybe when another brand of patterns go on sale. Well, look at me go in the comments section, writing a tiny book to you. :) Email upcoming to fill you in on the LAST YEAR! Take care - keep living your best life there in Alaska, and please keep sharing it with us. ---- Nance

[@AloneinRemoteAlaska]

Hi Nance! So glad you liked the video. The garden did surprisingly well considering the lack of water and sunlight. I am pleased with my haul even though it was not tremendous. I have a long way to go on managing the pantry and food stores. I have never put much thought into long term food storage, as I have always been one to buy what I will consume in 6 months' time. Now I am finding that I have items that have been on shelf or in the freezer for well over a year or two! 😳 Time to get busy canning and doing long term food storage for dry goods. I don't know why I didn't look at the back of the label on the other container I showed in this video, but it also contains carrageenan. After doing some research on this additive, I am not as put off by it as I was at first. Turns out that is a natural derivative of red seaweed, that acts as a gelling agent. Why heaving cream needs a gelling agent added is beyond me. 🙄 Thanks for the compliment on my skirts. Most of them are wool and were purchased off of Amazon surprisingly enough. The majority of them are just a two panel A frame skirt, but the brown tweed one that sits high on my waist is made with on full front panel and two in the back and has an elastic waistband. This is my favorite skirt. They are all fully lined which adds to the warmth and fullness. I hope you find a pattern that you like and get some time to make some for yourself. Looking forward to the email to catch up. Thanks again for watching the video and commenting. Much appreciated. 🤗🐺💗

[@LissaFlatt-gq8ov]

Nice garden. Every year it will provide more for you and you learn what grows well in your zone. I love looking at the Burpee seed catalog when there is a snow storm outside my apartment. Hope your sewing this winter, i might get a second hand one from my niece. Peace Love Happiness 💕

[@ibislife]

Nice to go fishing. Trouts are protected from mid September here, until end October, so they can go up lakes and rivers to spawn. I had so many plans this week, but I got a not so nice souvenir on my London trip last weekend. I have been really sick with C-19. To top it off, I passed the XX over to my sons as well. People say that this is just like another cold, let me tell you, it is not! Try to avoid at all cost! 😅Not a good week. 🤒 Great potato harvest! After my plastic greenhouse was damaged in a storm, most of what I had there was damaged, as we have had so much rain this summer. Flooding even on my elevation. The ground was filled with water, so my sewage system didn't work. It cleanses the liquids into the ground, but the ground was filled with water, and the waste water had nowhere to go, and just filled up the tank again. Had it emptied twice... I might have to move it, as location is not the best, if we get more summers like this. Water comes into the drainage of the sewage from the hills above.

[@glendaanderson1119]

I never knew that additives were in that type of whipping cream. Thank you for the heads-up 😊

Beautiful scenery as always. Big foot? If they exist today I would have to hypothesis that they would migrate with the berries and that is why people say that they see them or evidence of them in different places and times of the year. And why during bad berry growing years they are trying to scare people away more so that they have enough to eat. I have faith that you will get your fresh fish.
