Take It One Thing At a Time | Homestead Vlog |July 24, 2024

[@charlacarson473]

Good morning from Huffman Texas! I am still cleaning up after the Hurricane. I lost my whole garden, I had six trees fall in my yard two huge trees on my whole garden. It has been a devastating blow for me and my family. I'm a single mom and we lost all our freezer and fridge. My canning saved us.

[@ChickadeeMountainHomestead]

I am so sorry to hear that! I know how you feel, when hurricane Irma came through several years ago, we lost so many trees, structures, and it was a mess! Thankfully by the grace of God all the animals were ok and we were ok. I'm thankful y'all are ok, I know this is going to be tough but you will make it through. I will pray for y'all! ❤

[@virsapiensfortisest922]

Oh dang it!!!!! I’m so sorry. I’m a single mom too and know how tight things can be. My heart breaks for you. 😭

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

I am so sorry to hear this, sending prayers your way my friend 🙏🙏💔❤️

[@delphine88313]

I'm sorry to hear that. I pray God restores what you lost.❤

[@pamp5797]

Sorry to hear of your disaster. So glad you at least have your home canned goods.

[@amyjones5660]

I love the way the two of you interact with each other, so very respectful and supportive. And you two are natural teachers. Love all your content and I am watching the older videos too.

[@Catherine1151]

I agree! They accept the opinions of each other and agree on everything. So wonderful. Once I found their channel I binge watched all their videos 😊

[@RhinoDNA]

I couldn’t have said it better!!!!

[@kathleencorreia2813]

The respect that they show each other is so wonderful to watch. In this day, it’s so good to see a young family that is so committed to each other. I’ll watch until I’m gone or the channel is done. God bless you all.

[@lisacornett9364]

Maggie taming Cookie is the sweetest thing I've ever seen.

[@kathysmith9888]

Seeing Maggie with her future milk cow made my heart smile!

[@NORMANMORRISON1940]

Wow your grandmother I thought that was your mother holy she ever in good shape farming people are very healthy people😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

She’s in better shape than all of us lol

[@The-Hillside-Garden]

It's just one of them years. Def crazy weather everywhere this year! It's my worst gardening season in 30 yrs, here in Ireland. Ya win some, ya lose some. I'm thankful for the things that are doing well. That's gardening. God wiiling, next year'll be better :)

[@brittanigrows]

I would've reacted the same way to going out to eat. You mean I don't have to cook tonight? Heck yeah! 😂

[@1gr8lpta]

Ya know you have a health garden when all the critters come for dinner and nesting

[@The-Hillside-Garden]

Maggie is adorable in how she's approaching taming Cookie!

[@freesianlover]

Maggie is too cute taming cookie. I believe she will be milking alongside her mama someday.

[@mamatriedhomestead8598]

This is THE best canned salsa recipe I've tried. I promise you won't be disappointed. ANNIES SALSA 8 cups tomatoes, peeled, chopped and drained 2 1/2 cups chopped onion 1 1/2 cups chopped green pepper 3 - 5 chopped jalapenos or to taste 6 cloves minced garlic 2 tsp cumin 2 tsp pepper 1/8 cup canning salt 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro 1/3 cup sugar 1 cup vinegar 16 oz. tomato sauce 16 oz tomato paste Mix all ingredients, bring to a boil, boil 10 minutes. Pour into hot jars, Process 15 minutes for pints and 20 minutes for quarts in a hot water bath. You may increase the amount of hot peppers if you want more heat, but reduce the green pepper or onion by the same amount to retain the acidity of the recipe and keep it safe to can. You don't have to use jalapenos, you can use any hot pepper you have on hand. I like habaneros but they are VERY hot. Be careful. The tomato sauce and paste are for consistency only, I like a salsa so thick it sits on my chip, you can leave it out but it is "runnier" without it.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

Thank you!!!

[@miephoex]

Sounds most like the salsa I learned to make from my mother-in-law (born and raised in Chihuahua, Mexico) over 55 years ago. The best ever!

[@maureenhobbs4163]

I love watching your family very peaceful and calm love Maggie ❤️ patience with cookies.

[@NORMANMORRISON1940]

Very good video as always and Mr Lawson you take that woman out to dinner she deserves a treat for all the work that she does you all good people❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@charleschwalinski3141]

I used that gypsum on my 114 tomato plants, and it worked great. Yall showed me that method. I never stop learning new things. Thanks.

[@danabaker596]

I bought Gypsum, and then didn't use it. Now, I have several plants with tomatoes with blossom end rot. My own fault.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

I’m so glad it worked!

[@teresawebster3498]

If you are starting to get a good bit of rain, you want to get as many of the good red tomatoes as possible and any that may have started blushing. After so much heat and dry weather, the ones that are ripe may split if you get a good rain storm now. The humidity I believe, contributes to the blight issues.

[@camilleolsen]

Thank you for showing your disappointments in the garden. It definitely encourages me not to give up when you've had so much experience with tomatoes. Here in Texas I'm really struggling to do well with tomatoes, but I love them so much that I keep trying. Same with cucumbers I haven't had a success since about 2013. However I have loofah coming out of my ears! 🙏🙏🙏

[@davebryant8050]

I'm in Alabama and had tons of tomatoes and cucumbers in June and early July but they're dying out now. Too hot to make blooms and they're just dying back. You need to start as early as possible because after it hits 90 you pretty much don't get any more blooms. Next year I'm trying a shade cloth and a fan to see if I can extend it a little farther.

[@delphine88313]

I'm in north Florida, so I started early and was even able to harvest for myself and give some away.Yet with triple digits, they went down hill.Im not babying anything over here😅😅 You live, or you die or here.

[@judydaffron5472]

I so enjoyed the visit with Gran. Please give her a hug for me. I sure miss my grandmother.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

She’s the best and has taught me a lot of what I know!!

[@retiredcarpenter8554]

when your done roasting your peppers throw them in a paper bag and seal the bag for a few minutes the peppers steam themselves making the skin come off real easy to peal off by laying your pepper on a flat surface and running the back of your knife over them makes the skin come off real easy.....

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

I will definitely try this!!

[@candacebradley7335]

We dug taters up this morning been digging for 3 days we gotta space it out at 67 yrs old, lol! We live in Central Ohio and our clay soil was like digging in cement so very dry & hard. We ended up with about 3 bushels we’ve got a vole eating ours also 🤦‍♀️. Your kids are adorable 💕 thanks for your videos and sharing your life with us!

[@user-bb7lo7yn2x]

Good morning from NW Oregon Andy replacing those blades was showing us how to do “Tractor yoga”😅😅😅

[@Buzzbuzz11]

That is a perfect Mater Sammich Mater right there!

[@marieparks5674]

Wow, that is one determined little girl. That cow will succumb to her charms.

[@katiedc8239]

Praise God you all got the rain you needed! We were all praying for that!

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Maggie the cow whisperer! Looking great around there and doing all you can with the harvesting. Thanks so much for sharing with us. Stay safe around there . Fred.

[@barbaranoel6118]

We have a family friend who just digs a trench puts his seed potatoes in and covers them with straw or hay. He can just dig through the hay and pull out as many potatoes as he needs. Love some creamed peas and new potatoes

[@lorrismith7366]

The size of those tomato plants are huge!!

[@sharonbutrum82]

Try to keep the bottoms of your tomato leaf torn off so they don't touch the ground, and pull the suckers off

[@VictoryGardenHomestead]

Crazy weather down here in Lincoln County too and our garden is just looking awful. Our corn is already done. We’ve had a great crop of green beans and cucumbers, but our shelling beans are already done. Our tomatoes had nasty blossom end rot but they’ve improved as we’ve worked on them, but they’re just about died off overall. All our squash got killed off by vine borers. Our garlic and onion did well. Pretty mixed overall we’ll call it and I’m hoping the fall crops will do better.

[@utopicconfections5257]

We're holding a potato experiment this year as well. We had a pile of hay that we were using to mulch our garden. The extra hay that we didn't use, we tossed some seed potatoes into the pile and have been adding additional hay as needed. So far they look really good. The only problem we're having is keeping the chickens out of it. Thanks for sharing.

[@vickiebarnett2001]

I absolutely love your channel. Love the old-timey ways. It is getting to be a lost art….but you have made me so happy to find your channel!! I ordered the cookbook!! Love you guys!! ❤️🙏❤️

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

Thank you so much!

[@cecilvinson1213]

Good morning glad you got a little rain

[@kelleyheard5790]

Great video I love watching you guys.

[@user-xv2mc6jf3v]

Luv your videos an how the kids help with the chores an little Maggie talking to her little cow 😊 Jacob the helpful young man for his poppa ❤

[@jeanballard7685]

Love watching you guys.

[@karenfrankland7763]

I'm in north NJ. Been picking tomatoes since beginning of July. Our plants are massive and we have not pruned any of the tomatoes. The weather has been so hot and little rain so a daily chore of watering everyday. We only grow heirloom varieties and seed save. Our worst tomato this year is the San Marzano. We planted them in barrels and they did get some blossom end rot and I'm thinking it's just that the soil dried out quicker. My favorite roma tomato is a Striped Roma, super meaty and twice the size of the san marzano. This year we are growing a pink heirloom beefsteak. I mix all our tomatoes and make ketchup or soup with them. Better than store bought ketchup. We never use any store fertilizer. Our homemade compost is high in nitrogen with all the chicken and duck poo added to it. Comfrey tea is our fertilizer if we need it. I make what we call a cooked salsa....It has a variety of tomatoes with skin and seeds, habanero peppers, peaches or pineapple chunks, green peppers, onions, garlic lots of oregano, salt, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar. Cook it down til all the veggies are soft but still chunky. Omg it's so good. Been making it for well over 20 years and it cans up beautifully. (Rebel canning I guess but we love it)

[@tinareberger3858]

Maggie has the sweetest soul and her determination is larger than life. ❤ cookie will be her milk cow.

[@markwedlock8808]

Fyi: We started putting up tomatoes plain. Then open a jar and add your herbs/seasoning for what your making. That way you never run out of a pedicure product. The best thing is a regular jar will fit on your blinder. Just pour some juice out if you don't need it all.

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

Yes I do this as well! About every other year or so! Very convenient and can be used for about anything!

[@SophianSeeker]

I just have to comment; with the loss of my husband of 30 years, followed by the loss of my home, life has seemed dark at times. But your videos bring joy back into my life and I have come to love your family from afar. So with profound appreciation and heartfelt emotion, I thank you. 😊

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

wow! thank you It makes us feel so good to know we help!, sorry for your losses! we'll keep you in our prayers

[@robinwillis7203]

You two are such a good couple. I love spending time with you

[@mousemeat1352]

Good lord, I loved your reaction to the hubby tellin you he thought you all should go out to dinner, your face was amazing. Respect to you both you are true partners. Many out here wish for what you have. ❤🎉

[@oops8985]

Crushed CALCIUM vitamin tabs work wonders on blossom end rot. Just a lil sprinkle around each plant is all I do and never have blossom rot.

[@jimmiemeeks9795]

Like y'all said earlier God gives us abundance and as long as we put in the work it carries us thru mother nature 🙏 appreciate y'all sharing 😊

[@beverlywalling1417]

I look for y’all every morning….smile when I find you…❤️❤️

[@amybartley4592]

We’ve had blossom end rot awful bad this year. I really think the heat contributed to the rot and blight. It’s been a tough year. Our tomatoes are finally growing out of both but we have had some beautiful rain fall lately! Love you guys!!

[@adventuresinmichiganwlisa9852]

Thanks y'all for sharing 👍🤓👍❣️ from here in Michigan to y'all.

[@vikkibyington3066]

❤ There’s so many parts of this video I’d love to comment on but there’s just too much. Andy, being proactive is a great thing. (Bush hog) Meagan, your salsa looks awesome. I’m sure all of you, especially Jacob will enjoy it! Cookie is a beautiful cow. I would never doubt Maggie’s determination and patience in taming her. I love your videos and I love your family. I know Jacob loves John Deere but was wondering what he enjoys playing with. Also, what does Maggie love? Favorite color, etc. I would love to see a Live with y’all asking questions of the kids. Just an idea. You have great kids and you two are leading them by example. Love n prayers to all the Lawsons. ❤🙏🏻🐄🐓🐖🌶️ p.s. It was great to see your Grandma, Andy!

[@shirley7137]

After blight I put the garden beds away for winter with a good amount of lime. It thus far has been a no show this year. Learned that trick from a Amish canning gardening book. We only put in about a dozen tomatoes plants, but found many volunteers from last year.. Which turned out to be heartier and more loaded with fruit. I usually have abundance in green beans but, not this year...burnt leaves from to many 80 degree days. We will be relying on last years pantry abundance. Last year abundancein winter squash this year less than 20 of three varieties. Very different year.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Your daughter, sitting there with her cow… so sweet! I just LOVE your videos! Thank you for sharing your life with us!

[@NORMANMORRISON1940]

We used to see a lot of gardener snakes and what we used to call red racers red racers like water harmless stinks we used to play with them when we were kids get stinky hands but I haven't seen hardly any other i've seen maybe 2GARDENER snakes in the past 20 years it seemed to have disappeared or maybe it's because it's not as wet here anymore I don't know And one thing about a gardener snake they're really good for your garden cause they eat all the bugs

[@coryatwood4571]

We plant german pink tomatoes every year. So far all the early tomatoes have blossom end rot. I have never had that problem in this garden. Its the dry hot weather here in middle Tennessee.

[@MarionArnold-q1z]

This is my husband's dream life. He loves to be in the garden.

[@michealabercrombie4271]

Try putting up a small windmill in your garden for the voles. It worked for us. We love watching you in SC😀

We had around 4 inches of rain yesterday, raining today, I threw away more tomatoes with blossom rot this year, I plant Celebrity every year always good. Gardens just about done , few tomatoes and okra. So thankful for what I have❤

[@pauline-bc-com-missp]

So nice to see the kids out n about with you two all the time helping out, enjoying themselves, so cool 🐸🐛🐚🐞🦌👩‍👦‍👦👨‍👧‍👧👍👍👍

[@NORMANMORRISON1940]

Here on Vancouver Island Canada BC and it's so hot here too every night 30 in my room I got the curtain shears over my garden still the tomatoes have just started putting out tomatoes and they're only about an inch round and some of them look like they're shriveled up and very bad😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@jimkaufman977]

Megan , sometime on one of your videos could you give us your tomato soup recipe. I love this video just like all the others . I have a good garden this year, but , it also has some ups and downs cause of the dry weather and the heat. I’ll appreciate what I get and what the BIG guy says I deserve and suppose to get this year . I won’t starve , JESUS has my back !!!!!! HI Megan ,Andy , Magee and Jacob 👋👋❤

[@jessicabetkey3297]

Some people don't like failure in a garden, but the way I look at it's part of it & always a learning experience which I love. We've been gardening 10yrs & this is the first year we've ever had birds get in our corn & we plant corn every year, but we've also had abundance in other areas so the way I look at it be thankful for what God has blessed you with for that year because food is food & it's all a blessing. Also thanks for the salsa recipe I literally was prepping tomatoes for salsa & couldn't find my recipe so thank you ☺️

[@jerrylee690]

I had a problem with blossom end rot here in FL. The heat and no rain. But now was e are getting rain, praise God. And I prayed to God that yall would get rain. Blossom end rot was the worst I ever seen. I threw away a lot most of my tomatoes. I went and bought 2 tomatoes at Walmart yesterday and it cost me 2.82$. Can you believe that. I made salsa, and Janet just loves it. My first time making it. One that I made was pineapple and? really good., we are not for from Dothan ,Ala. So we may ride up there one Saturday. .thanks❤

[@NORMANMORRISON1940]

You're right you gotta clean off your machinery and your lawn mowers especially otherwise they rushed out really fast I used to always wash off the lawn mower we had one lawn mower that was aluminum cast very heavy but it was a walk behind it used to have a hose adapt on it hook the hose up to it let your lawn mower run and it washes off all the old grass it's a very good idea but you also got to make sure that that water dries up But one thing about that aluminum cash lawn mower the paint peeled like crazy was like look like battery acid but it wasn't I guess you could have cleaned it up and repainted it But the paint on just your norm stays on way better

[@Regina-ov7yi]

Your Maggie is a doll!! She is her mama made over. She'll tame that cow for certain. Blest be.

[@ParisStrange]

Morning from Corryton, TN! We are having a glorious rainy week!

[@florencecampbell774]

Your potatoes looked well. Liked to see you making the salsa.I think I could smell it…..keep at it Maggie patience pays off.❤️🥰

[@tommathews3964]

That probably was “Shelby” suggested to you as a paste tomato. I’ve grown them since they were in trials with Hoss and really like it as my primary paste tomato now. It has really out performed other pastes for me! That was about as smooth as blade changing on a rotary cutter can go! Maggie sitting patiently and talking to Cookie was so cute! The patience and dedication to that routine is really admirable for a child her age! I’m so impressed with the way y’all are raising those kids! Life skills!

[@flyfliker]

I think I saw that the chicken tractor had a safety recall

[@ChickadeeMountainHomestead]

YES the Shelby is an awesome variety!! Its in the same family and makes awesome salsa and tomato canning. Its a Hoss Tools seed.

[@lorraineyohey7023]

Loved loved loved seeing Maggie with her cow!

[@Donna592]

Good morning in East Tennessee we finally got some rain

[@Maria-ql3fc]

I live a few miles south of Dothan Alabama and I'm pretty sure they use Slocomb tomatoes for their salsa. Slocomb Alabama has a whole festival around their tomatoes, it's the best tomatoes you can buy for fresh eating and canning, have no idea what cultivar they grow as they keep it secret. Saving seeds from their tomatoes won't give you the same tomato, people have tried I'm pretty sure.

[@GiGiRenea]

You guys are such a positve addition to what I watch on yt. Ty❤

[@robertwilliams-wd6cp]

I put Chopped egg shells, Epsom salt and a double handful of grass clippings and leaf mulch in each tomato plant hole. We get 6 foot tall plants in 4 foot square cages. And I till my plot as deep as my tiller will go. In town I realized the city water was killing our garden. I collect rain water to water with.

[@ilene9349]

Tiger is helping himself to some vegetables in the garden, hugs to him My Roma tomatoes are still green but no problems with bugs, worms . Cucumber are doing great, now my butternut squash looks good also but there's only 1 female and all males , this happened last year too. I'm in zone 7 A. So hot and no rain, I had to water every other day.❤

[@shannonhawkins260]

Yea we live in south central Kentucky and my cucumbers stunted and I had cucumber balls! I got a second batch going in a different spot but Idk… I put some corn out a week ago and I hope they get through the rest of the season.. y’all’s garden looks great guys, love the videos 😊

May GOD have mercy on you, and skin you alive, if you didn't take her. I live down here in this other Cakalacky, and I know, (kinda), how that works with these southern wimmin. I have made it to 78!

[@charmainevandiford6622]

I Love to listen to Country People talk. I work with a few Northern folks and they talk a lot of junk and look down on our dialect but it’s beautiful to me. Something about a Southern Lady talking. I was describing a young guy that works for me and I said he is a smart young man and he is a hard worker but he has a lot of Youngin in him that you all know means he has some growing up to do. The Plant Manager said what’s a Youngin and I said he has some growing up to do. He said he has never heard that word. He was from Ohio. He calls a Water fountain a Bubbler and a Pepsi or Mountain Dew is a soda. I don’t understand some of the Northern sayings.

[@kerrybeyer5271]

HELLO!! Megan I LOVE to follow you and your family 🤗 You might try putting your tomatoes in the plugged sink and pour the boiling water over them. Then drain after skin has released. So easy. Same with peaches

[@TrueGritAppalachianWays]

I’ve never thought to do that! Will definitely try it!

[@kerrybeyer5271]

[@kimsampleshall7137]

Hey guys, love watching your channel, This year, for the first time, I put an egg in each of my tomato holes, beat it up and planted my tomato plant and then watered well. Then as they started, I kept the lower limbs cut off so nothing is touching the ground, awesome tomato harvest for me this year, I live in NW Ga. Hugs

[@sandracowan9317]

Guys, I had the same problem with my Cherokee tan tomatoes and my patty pan squash with blossom end rot. This is my first year growing in Vego type raised beds and didn’t have my irrigation tape down yet so I was using the telescope sprinklers. I contacted Texas A&M about it and they said tomatoes and squash are prone to blossom end rot when the leave are wet from sprinkle watering. I started hand watering with a wonder and the blossom end rot stopped happening so it saved the rest of my plant and my newly planted tomatoes and squash. They said with the excessive heat and watering from the top with sprinklers was the issue. They can’t handle the wet heat. Just an fyi from my neck of the woods.

[@connieparker8896]

Use your egg shells ground up on your tomatoes for blossom end rot..mix the egg shell powder in your soil..

[@elbertelvis7963]

Voles ate my potatoes over here on this side of the mountain. I despise the hard work and they eat my taters. You guys are a pleasure to watch working together on your farm.

[@TinaMarie869]

Hello from a grandmother in sw Virginia. Don't know if yall know this so thought I would share. For blossom endrot about six weeks before my tomato's start to put out I take seven eggshells and feel a quart jar with white vinegar and put the eggshells in it. The first sign of trouble put about five or six table spoons in a gallon of water and spray your tomato's top to bottom and around the ground. It's always worked for me stops blossom endrott in it's tracks. I love yalls video's gives this old lady hope for our future. Be blessed

[@denisedonaldson5825]

You guys are such an amazing family to watch!!

[@angelagill75]

I have saved my tomato skins, dehydrated them and made my own tomato powder.

[@rogerheckman2861]

Tomatoes and potatoes are in the same family and compete for the same nutrients.
