      I find that a lot of the channels i watch start off as what i consider "normal, down to earth, wholesome" people, unfortunately they always change once they gain popularity and income from their channel and it becomes less relatable to me and i start to get bored with it. I would much prefer to watch videos from a channel like this, the "quality" doesn't bother me at all 😊

    Ruth Ann, your CZcams channel has many qualities that "fancy" channels do not. I cannot tell you how grateful I am that you had the courage to step out and start your channel. You have Godly wisdom, you carry the joy of the Lord in your countenance, and you are not afraid to just be yourself! I have learned far more than I ever expected, and it's not the information I have gathered, it's the transformation that is taking place in my heart through your example. 🥰

    "The Wisdom of Ruth Ann"! As a Traditional Naturopath, I've taught about parasites for over 40 years. It is not well received by some of my clients. They can understand that their pets may need de-worming but, they don't. The fact that they let the animal "kiss" them and they sleep with them, doesn't seem to make it to their "common sense" area that they too need to do something to rid their intestines of these parasites. Black Walnut is an excellent astringent and has been used by many older cultures in the spring to "cleanse". Thank you for talking about these "old world" health habits, I appreciate you!

      Love your gardening and planting analysis regardless of this current US and Canadian bureaucratic rules and zones being dictated . This is more for their climate obsession ideology than using your common sense and experience over the years. This control on planting and farming across the nation and countries is an attempt to stop those living off the land and maybe offering their produce rather than using controlled food supply monopolies. We need to resist and carry on relying on Superior guidance.

    OMG!!! You're CORRECT Ruthann!!! People REFUSE to recognize that if, in fact, they are eating FOOD that is grown in dirt...yep, you too, can acquire infections (parasites). People also believe that refusing to talk about death, prevents that from happening too! Wonder how that's working out for them, since it's a known FACT, we ALL die! TY for sharing this important information... LOTS of us DO want to know and appreciate you!!! TY.

    Congratulations on such a beautiful blessing. I just adore my grand babies 🎊 ❤. I really enjoy your channel I don’t care as probably most of your followers as well about the fancy filming. We are here because we enjoy you and your content. The peace and grace that you show us shows just how strong Gods presence is in your family. When I watch your videos I feel like I’m spending time with an old family friend. Love your sister in Christ ❤

    Totally enjoy watching your weekly podcast. I’m 70 years old live in northern TN and have always loved taking care of my family and home. You share that same love with me and yes it may not be full of high end things but it has been a blessing that the Lord has allowed me to enjoy this and watching your videos reminds me of those times with my boys.

    Used to tell folks that transplanted from the north, if they plant some plants that they used to enjoy in the north might not be making it in the south, so don't get used to it, and sure enough, they'd burn up before long with that southern heat.
    Same with another person that tried to grow a banana plant here one time, because we weren't far enough south for that.
    Some folks just can't get their heads around that though, and think if they tend it enough it'll make it, but eventually it won't.

      Texas, north central area. We can get below zero, but usually in the low teens, but we can also get to 115 in August, September, with little to no rain. We do better with a fall garden, we get longer warm days and rain. I've lived here always, just a few brief times away. You need to listen to people who grew up in your area, and know it over the long haul.

    The parasite cleanse is interesting. I have a friend who is celiac and she said she did a parasite cleanse and now she can be around gluten without suffering SEVERE consequences. She still won’t eat it but she can at least be around it and her family can eat gluten again if they want. It’s incredible, actually.

Thanks, Ruth Ann, you are like my sister I no longer have here on earth. You serve a divine purpose here on CZcams so thanks!
    As a “lazy” gardener, I am also experimenting with winter sowing this year. I am excited about it and I have already transplanted a couple of plants so far into the garden. I am in NW Georgia so we are not nearly as cold as you are. I hope you have good results and I look forward to hearing about your results.
    Lastly, congratulations on your first grandchild!! 🎉

    You hit the nail on the head, The Lord who created all things is in control of the weather! We start our cooler crops in February. Also we have always begun planting warmer weather crops the week after mothers day! We have moved 5 years ago across town to a more rural area with a river right out our back door. We still plant the week after mothers day. Zone 8 here. Willamette Valley Oregon. Warm until late September.

    I was taught the same thing as you, my mother, my grandmother and I all used compounds to rid the body of parasites (we called them worms). We especially did this when we spent time on the farm with our children. Yes, we do catch them from the animals and from the soil. My grandmother used to overdo it with a dose every Sunday but Mum did it about every six months or so. Forget polish, we like real life and real people and you certainly are that. Congratulations on the birth of your grandchild, they bring so much joy.

I feel connected to my lineage thanks to you:) I always was fascinated with the lifestyle, my family never understood it;) Thank You for sharing your wisdom ❤.

    I say this with all due respect, cults to consciousness has been a regular on my feed. It relates to my experience, not necessarily yours. But if it does, I've found so much validation and respect in sharing not just the light but also the honest truth. Witnessing other's thruth, has catapulted my own internal healing:)
    Do I ever wish you left in a positive path of self expansion❤.
