One of our favourite ways to eat apple butter, besides in oatmeal of course, is to make these yummy apple butter cinnamon rolls. They are soft, pull apart and melt in your mouth, apple goodness.

We are blessed to have moved to a homestead with lots of old apple trees, but the challenge with the old standard trees when it comes to picking apples has always been their size. In today's video we will bring you along, as we go out into the orchard, in search of apples to make apple butter. Then head into the kitchen as we process our apples and turn them into yummy apple butter that we can ...

We live in an area with VERY high predator pressure, and after losing chickens several times, we knew we couldn't free range chickens. We designed this coop and run with that in mind, and used what we had on hand to keep costs down. Join us for part 1 of our dream coop build. We've got lots of great ideas so hopefully you'll stick around to see our dream come true.

DIY Affordable Plant Stand

I was looking for a cheaper solution to all those expensive grow lights stands, and I think I have found the perfect match. We found a really sturdy set of shelves at Costco and matched them with the Barrina T5 LED 4' shop lights; they fit the shelves perfectly and the 6500K was exactly what we were looking for in a grow light. It came together nicely to make the perfect DIY affordable grow lig...

What is curtaining? | Maple Syrup The Old Fashioned Way

zhlédnutí 81Před 6 měsíci

When you are making backyard maple syrup you don't always have a candy thermometer or hydrometer or Brix meter, so how can you tell if your syrup is done? Well, the old timers use to say, it's done when it curtains, but what does that mean? In todays video, we will show you how sap starts to look and behave when it is close to becoming syrup, and finally, what curtaining looks like when it's done.

Processing Bushels Of Fruit

zhlédnutí 240Před 8 měsíci

This year we purchased a bin full of apples. We were able to share with friends and still process bushels and bushels of fruit. We made apple sauce, cider, apple pie filling, and apple butter a few different ways. In this video we brake down what we felt was the best use of our apples, what we absolutely loved and what we might do differently next time.

I had been pricing bushels of apples and they were so expensive, then a friend Lori told me about this great orchard that sold 2nds by the bin a few hours away. There is nothing more fun than a road trip with friends, so we invited our good friends from Ploughman's Backyard and off we went. On our way, we picked up an old cider press, that had been in the owners family for 3 generations. I was ...
