Pickled pepperoncini is wonderful for Mississippi beef or pork.

Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️❤️❤️
We are having a heat wave here in Ontario, Canada. Our tomatoes are still green. Last week we had terrible rains and flooding. Thanks for sharing.
Oh no! Hopefully the weather settles soon! ❤️❤️❤️
@@seedandsparrowhomestead its very hot now, but all our major highways were flooded, my husband took 3 hours to get home.
Another CZcamsr I watch, she does organic gardening, she takes tape and puts on the eggs when she them. She said it’s time consuming, but it helps keeps a lot of plants bug free
Wow, you've reached 50,000! Just noticed that.
The hollyhocks are just gorgeous❣️
I’m so excited they bloomed! ❤️❤️
Last year I grew tomatillos and froze a couple gallon bags of them. I have used them during the year for guacamole( my husband got an amazing recipe from a friend).
I love your garden! It keeps giving because you’ve done the work, you’re such a great gardener.
I can't understand how some people have a bountiful garden and some of us struggle hard to get one cucumber.😢
Love you and your channel. So uplifting and you are so amazing!!!!
The cucumbers are a great size for lady Ashburn pickles still usable
Great job, I am proud of you!
I’d use those cherry tomatoes to make the Ticktock Cherry Tomato Feta Pasta. It’s really delicious and so easy to make.
Love love love it!! Big and bountiful beautiful garden!! My hubby and I love your videos!! Love your yard!! You have a cute family! Enjoy the fruits of labor!!
Our cucumbers have barely been putting out as well. Weve been watering and thankfully have gotten rain , but I think they are done.
I've been getting one at a time.
Same! Sadly. Cucumbers are my favorite….
Japanese beetle traps do work. Trick is to not put it where the beetles are. You need to put it outside your garden but near enough for them to smell the pheromones. 😊
I cannot wait to see your potato haul it's always fun even if the harvest is small. Love watching all the garden things while dreaming of future gardens. Apartment living sucks!
nasturtums are deterants for squash bugs and are edible, also once your done with them you can toss them to your chickens as greens. marigolds are also deterants.
Last year, I had to pull TONS of green tomatoes from my plants due to a frost coming and was able to make 12 pints of salsa verde! I think I used a recipe from one of the Ball canning books. It’s delicious if you ever have trouble growing/finding tomatillos 😊
for when you come in from the garden to cool off or family, friend or church gathering: Banana Brunch Punch Serves: 3 qts. From the Kitchen of: Lorita Sutton

I just got my first order of Redmond Salt. Thank you for the discount code. I can’t wait to try it. I love your channel. I’m watching your older videos and learning lots.
I can't wait for your next video I absolutely love watching your channel ❤
I came over from Plow and Pantry channel who did a video highlighting some of her favorite channels.
She is so sweet! Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed ❤️
Congratulations on your 50,000 subscribers! I’m really tickled for you!
Fall garden is my favorite. I got hit with early blight harder than usual but the only rain we got all season was after the blight had set in so I couldn’t treat it properly. Like you, I decided to give myself some grace ( I struggle with that if I’m being honest ) I’m going to focus on fall because most of the market farmers around me grow an abundance of summer crops so I can always purchase something if I need to for preserving.
That’s a good way to think of it! We don’t have access to any of the fall crops either so it’s nice to focus on them!
I do a korean cucumber salad with a kind of "marinade" takes a flavorless cucumber and turns it into a delicious side dish
Hey, Kelsey!
Watching you while I do my morning routine. This may help you with those one bite beans-think of it as taste tested. They took one bite and it tasted horrible so they moved on. They actually saved you from processing so much bad tasting food.
❤
Oh, the roses!
I live in Irwin! I love watching your channel! Bonus because we have the same weather conditions ❤
Your garden is beautiful! ♥️🇺🇸♥️
Weeds are a part of it… Still Beautiful and a Blessing!!
Very true! ❤️❤️❤️
Your flowers are amazing 🌻🌸💐🌹🌼
Good morning! ☀️ I enjoyed my first cherry tomato yesterday while watering, what a treat it was. There are a couple more on the plant but not yet fully ripe. I have 38 paste tomato plants, two cherry and one beefsteak tomato plants and the cherry tomato plant is the only one that has something ready to eat. Most don’t even have any tomatoes starting. I wonder if the excessive heat played a role in the lack of fruit starting?? We need some rain too. It’s going to be much cooler this week which will be nice for getting some weeding and harvesting done.
Your harvest and the flowers are looking so beautiful! 🌸
I’m glad you had a lovely time away with Matt, thank you friend for sharing your garden with us. 🤗
I would definitely say the heat is contributing to the lack of tomatoes, the plants might be stressed. It’s been tough summer for everyone it seems! Hopefully soon things settle a bit. Thanks so much, it was nice to get away but also just as nice to come home ☺️ blessings ❤️
I saw a recipe online that I haven’t tried yet but they used a bundt pan to make a huge amount of baked jalapeño poppers. I’m looking forward to trying that.
Ohh interesting! Do you slice it like a cake then 🤔
@@seedandsparrowhomestead I responded but I guess CZcams didn’t like my answer. You cut the top off, core, stuff and stand them up in the pan instead of laying them on their side. The recipe is on P - intrest ( I think that’s why it didn’t post when I responded before) if you need a visual reference.
Everything looks yummy! We ate a big pan of blistered shishito peppers no problem so it might just be a side dish if you and your family like them. I like roasted okra. Green beans steamed then cooked with bacon is a winner here. Borscht would take care of your cabbage and beets.
If U have chilli trees U can keep them over winter but they do loik like dead sticks...but still alive...to grow next year U may need to dig up if snow...protect for winter inside house...
Are U going to bake the beetroots...yummee...😮😮😮😮😅😮😮
You could make cinnamon pickles with cucumbers that have gotten too big for fresh eatting.
Please show your tomatio? When you process if you can, have heard of it but never seen it or eaten it.
You bet! Coming Friday ❤️
Maybe just plant peas all over as a cover crop to help boost the nitrogen in the soil and to deters weeds from filling in the empty spaces. You can always plant your fall garden in the same area as the peS
That’s a thought! Maybe I’ll do some chaos planting 😂
@@seedandsparrowhomestead Exactly!!! 😆
So glad you got away for a tiny rejuvenation - now after a little rest, you will be raring to go. LOL
It was nice and I got to sleep in until 7am today with felt like a vacation 😂
I can't sleep anywhere, heck I can barely sleep decently in my own bed let alone in a different one.
Oh no! 😂 I understand that! I went through a long bout of not sleeping well for about a year! No fun at all!
You can shell those beans
My tomatoes are just starting to ripen. Had weeks of no rain now we have rain almost every day. Some are showing signs of splitting.
This summer weather has been hard on the gardens!
I am lucky 173 to like this video... I slept in. LOL. So I have liked, shared and commenting. I totally get it... I had to say no to purchasing local fruit as I do not have the strength to can it right now.... Hugs from Esquimalt
As for things to do with the peppers... Do yourself a solid and dry them any which way you like. make sure to wear safety goggles, long sleeved shirt, the best mask you have for breathing.... and keep all distractions away for this part...
Get your spice grinder of choice out and blitz the peppers till a fine powder, add some of your favourite salt and fresh cracked pepper with some sort of green herb... Oregano or Basil or Mint or Rosemary that is also dried and blitzed.... Mix and you now have your own Pepper Salt. If you want you can also add a bit of sugar, but I don't. You will thank me....
Hugs from Esquimalt
Is there any health risk in eating vegetables damaged by bugs? I asked Gemini (AI) and it said not usually but there are some insects that leave behind toxic residue. I'm wondering about your practice/experience. I'd be tempted to follow the "unless it looks gross, it's safe" policy. 😂
I love watching you garden :)
Maybe it’s a PA thing but I can find any tomatillo plants for sale in my corner of PA either🙁
❤
What kinds of things do you do with your kale? I did kale this year for the first time this year. Great harvest! Nancy from Nebraska
Beautiful harvest! Val C
Thank you ☺️ ❤️❤️❤️
سلام خدا برکت بده خانم خسته نباشید
Tomatillos are good producers. I plant four because I preserve salsa verde like you preserve applesauce. Give me all the salsa verde 😂
Lol! I like it and enjoy cooking meat in it but not enough to can like I do applesauce 😂
@@seedandsparrowhomestead I hear ya. I make a LOT of chicken tamales, chicken verde and cream cheese burritos, breakfast chilaquiles, white bean chili and chile rellenos casseroles. They all batch cook well ( aside from chilaquiles) so if you need ways to use your salsa, they are good work lunches for the week if Matt eat that kind of stuff.
Did peppergate from a few years ago continue?because those two peppers sure look alike 😊
I was wondering the same thing! The greenhouse that I normally get stuff from sold plants they called “pepperoncini” last year and I raised the shishito from seeds that were a couple of years old. They looked identical. What I had gotten in the past labeled pepperoncini was a shorter rounder yellowish green pepper.
I don't know if you'll see this before you give the beans to your chickens but I've read numerous times to NOT give beans to chickens because it can kill them!
I’ve heard that before. I’ve given them a few here and there in moderation and never had any issues over the last 7 years. It can definitely be a problem if they are given in excess or often!
@@seedandsparrowhomestead Oh ok. I had read not to even give them one and it scared me when I saw you were gonna give them to yours. Good to know it’s not gonna kill them to have a few!
I'm curious...what do you spray your garden for bugs? We are doing our best NOT to use chemicals. We lost our radishes to bugs.
I'm in NC so the heat here has been 95 plus for weeks with little rain. However, we got our break this week. Highs in the 80's with rain! So thankful!
I’ll use some organic sprays like captain jacks. I’ll use a BT spray for worms and caterpillars!
did you know roses and tulips are edible.
❤❤❤❤
❤️☺️🤗
How do you use your pineapple sage? I grew some last year and have alot dried. I've used it with pork and fish. But, was curious how you use it.
I’ve used it with chicken and pork but I use it most in iced tea!
Did you go to college? Which one?
My cherry tomatoes split soon as I pick them up any suggestions?
Picking too late most likely! Could also be from picking after a good rain, they swell up and crack more easily ❤️
Does your microphone need to be on your boob? Distracting...sorry!!
I do love your garden! Id take hollyhock seeds if you dont keep any. Thanks😊
I think if the microphone is higher, then we'd only hear weird breathing noises and lower we wouldn't hear anything! 😅
I love your flowers!
