♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
@@patriciakoester1580I agree❤
Even as a single person I started this process in 2020. I was diagnosed and treated for stage 3 ovarian cancer. So my family would do my shopping (and I got stuff delivered) for me to keep me out of the stores. I have kept up the process of going through my stock pile using old stuff and restocking. I was able to buy a small chest freezer so I am doing that with meat and etc.
All the best for you!!! ❤
Good job taking responsibility for yourself and at the same time being kind and wise to accept assistance from those who care about you so they can feel helpful too 👍😁 Hope you are in recovery.
💖👏👏👏 you will make it through 🙏
God bless you, prayers for comfort and peace!
Sending healing prayers your way. Great for you on the food management... I'm single, too, and have been working on it, too. It really helps on migraine and pain days! Sending gentle hugs!
I’m almost 60 years old and it’s just my husband and I. Since 2020, we do this as well; except, on a smaller scale. We don’t have a space like hers, but we make it work.
Hearing you say “I don’t tell them, they tell me how much they need in a day” is a such a refreshing statement to hear. Happy, healthy well fed children ❤
Exactly. Kids should be taught to eat when hungry and stop when full as should adults. If a kid is hungry they should eat no matter if it’s the “wrong” time.
You have to be the most laid back person I’ve ever seen. You have such a calm voice. With that many kids I’d be a frazzled mess.
❤️❤️❤️ This is how ingrew up in the 60s with parents and grandparents who lived thru the Depression. My husband and I have continued since our marriage in early 80s... We've been laughed at and ridiculed thru the years, but when something happens, (illness, job loss world pandemics), we are prepared and it doesn't throw us off course. Thank you for continuing to share a way of life that has kept Americans stable for generations!
So true. There have been multiple times this has happened. Plus I can bless others when they need it!
THANK YOU for having both fresh canned goods and STORE BROUGHT goods! For being honest about 'Best Buy' dates vs. Canning good storage timelines! Thank you for having stuff in your 'Store brought' pantry that many of us have in ours as well! Thank you for not thumbing your nose at people who can't afford a whole lot of ORGANIC store brought goods (didn't see ANY in your pantry!). Thank for reminding people they need to STORE THE THINGS THEY CANNOT GROW or RAISE themselves (shampoo, toilet paper, detergent, etc...) And I'm glad you can SEPARATE all those things in your pantry... GOD IS GOOD! May you continue to be BLESSED!
You could post 3 times a day and it still wouldn't be enough!!! When my anxiety is bad I put ur videos on its ur voice ur calming nature it soothes my soul 💖 thank you for posting
I couldn’t agree more ❤️
Here's a little tip my Momma taught me--store your empty jars upside down. Keeps the dust out, and easy to grab from the box to put into the dishwasher. I love your pantry. So much work and what an excellent insurance policy!
Growing up on cold rainy nights, I remember my mom would make us a big platter of tuna salad and salmon salad sandwiches. We lost her Christmas Day 2021. The more I think of her the more memories come back to me.
Lost my mom May 2021. Miss her every day.
I found your channel when I was pregnant with my twins and was looking for freezer meals. My boys just turned 8 and I’ve been a faithful viewer this whole time. I’m a now single mom of two and I can say that your videos and advice is helpful for families of all sizes. I love your content ❤
Syrup : 1 part white sugar, 1 part brown sugar, 1 part water. Heat on stove but not to boiling. Add splash if vanilla extract after you turn the heat off.
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, 3/4 cup white sugar, 1/2 c corn syrup, 1 cup water, boil 1 minute. Add 1 tsp maple extract, 1/4 t butter flavoring, 1/4 t vanilla
Thank u so much ,hubby loves syrup ,will give this a go
How long does this last?
There's also maple flavoring that's pretty good.
I grew up on that syrup
I love how you want to have a good stock for your family! And you rotate stock AND share with others in need!
I'm here laying down in pain and this is the medicine I needed. My day just got better ❤️
I just said exact safm thing ,feel I'll, in bed ,and cheered me up to see a new vid ,to watch ,hope ur pain eases soon
Feel better
Feel better.
I hope you feel better soon all x
For me as well. I have fibromyalgia and the weather here lately has been making me so so sick 😢 I like doing this stocking up because there’s a lot of days I can’t get out of 🛌 bed. And I like to have food already prepared for days that I can’t get out of bed for my husband and I. We’re empty nesters to. So no help when I am sick.
Now *THAT'S* a pantry! Well done!
I always love your show! I wanted to have 24 kids but limited c sections got in
my way. Darn it ! 4 c- sections made 5 kids and the good Lord sends me kids for a season all the time! Love your “show”! Thank you !!!
I don't know why but I wasn't real crazy about your videos when I first began watching. I have no idea why because NOW I love you and them both. I always get a smile on my face when I see you in your bathrobe and ready for bed. Probably because I love being in my bathrobe too. Keep up the great videos!
You really are amazing; God has given you many “gifts”. Darn girl you have a lot of energy!!! I love how your love shines through with all that you do. May God pour out even more blessings to you and your family and loved ones! We know who brings our blessings! 🥰🙏🙏🥰 Thank you for sharing a bit of your life with us. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
As a Mennonite and my husband who is Amish and have four kids we go to the grocery store ever six months. My husband and son goes hunting and fishing and my uncle and aunt will give us two whole beef cows and two whole pigs and two whole lambs and we have half of our land that we use for gardening and we have 30 chickens for eggs and 10 ducks for eggs and 6 turkeys for eggs and we are thinking about getting some gooses for eggs. We made homemade almond milk and almond flour and almond butter and oat milk and oat flour the only time that I go to the grocery store to buy laundry detergent and dishes soap and bath stuffed and flour and sugar and baking soda and vinegar and baking powder and flour. I'm going to start to make our I
Laundry detergent and dishes soap. We have three cats and two dogs and we make our pet food for our pets. We don't food our pets dry or wet food from the grocery store. Pets can eat the same food that we can eat.
I'm not even a mom, but I love watching your channel!❤️
I 3 sons as a disabled single mother and 75 qts of tomato juice, soup, spaghetti sauce.
50 whole tomatoes 25 pizza sauce
75 green beans, corn
And all the deer meat we could get.
I cooked cubed meat and let it cool pulled it packed it in the jar and canned it. Used it all kinds of ways but when I would be sick the sons made pulled deer bbq sandwiches. Or i would put it in the crock pot and let cook for bbq sandwiches when they got home from school that and mac and cheese and they have a meal.
Don’t know if you’ve ever watched Little Mountain Ranch. Not sure if her large family is as large as yours but she cans what she grows with the intention of using what she has canned before the next growing season. When summer comes, her shelves are pretty empty and she starts the process again.
Jessica at Three Rivers Homestead uses what she cans during the same year. They both say the reason for canning their own food is to know they are eating the best food available without additives, etc. Both channels worth watching. I love to watch people can even though I don’t do it myself anymore.
I love both of those channels.
It’s so concerning in these crazy times to see mamas with large families and all they have to do to stay ahead. Who knows where we’ll be at by the end of 2023. I hope everyone starts preparing for what’s to come. The more people who are prepared the better we will all be
I have been trying, but it's difficult because I had to start almost entirely from scratch again... My family moved to a new place around a month and a half or so ago.
Things like that really throw things out of wack sometimes!😅
I'm praying for other families to have the good fortune of well stocked Pantrys.
❤
There's nothing better than the quality security that comes from knowing that your family won't have to worry so much about food.
❤
I love this. I feel like you should have a store basket when you shop your stash. 😀
I'm 75 and amazed at you! You got a new sub today. I was captivated at your grocery store and your rotating and large amounts! I'm in awe of you. I was never able to have chikdren, so your beautiful family and life really makes my heart smile! Hugs and prayers to you...
FYI a TIP for you. When I stick my canned items, I have a sharpy with me and write the expiration year on it. Easy to see quickly. So if expires July 2025. I simply put 25 on it. Been doing this about a year after reorganizing and finding some old old cans that got slipped in wrong areas. Has made a world of difference, and your kiddos could do it too.
Jamerrill, ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
You are just absolutely AMAZING!!!!

I've always followed the make 1 make 1 for the freezer as there's only the 2 of us. I've never been as grateful for a stocked pantry (not that mine is big). My husband took Covid at the beginning of the week, so I had to isolate with him, then I developed it by the Friday. Thank god for my freezer meals and extra food. I don't have a large freezer or a large pantry but its got me through till the end of next week at least. I have you to thank Jamerill for pointing me in this direction. xxx
What a thing of beauty! Learning how to rotate through things properly is a process and you are becoming a master at it.
The nice thing about our basement store, it makes you take the stairs more often!
My grandmother had a pantry for years and it was always well stocked up I would always ask her why she stocked up like she did and she said “because you never know when you might go hungry and be short of money” I love ❤️ your room very well stocked up!
Freeze dried egg powder are great to have on storage shelf. Reconstitute eggs - 2 tablespoons of egg powder and two tablespoons of water to make one medium egg. When using to bake with add dry egg powder to dry ingredients and add the amount water needed to equal egg powder to wet ingredients.
Jamerrill you’ve taken “Spring” cleaning and organising to a whole new level. A couple of days ago it was fridge and freezer organisation and today the grocery store/pantry - WTG you. Love an organised space, it’s definitely my jam.
I use Dawn dish soap in all of our bathroom soap dispensers. It's cheap and I don't have to buy separate types of liquid soap. Love you oodles, Jamerrill! 🙏 ❤️
Wow! I admire you stockpile. That's a full-time job. Your family is fed well.
Jammerill don’t worry about the 12-18 month time on home canned items. I have been canning for years and during he 2023 pantry challenge I have been doing I found beans that I have canned in 2014! Seal was solid, opened it and gave smell test all was well and used just fine. Tasted great. Just use your common sense. If that seal strong you are good to go!
@Jamerrill. Your ability to plan, organize and execute large projects is top 1%. Your energy is boundless. I grew up with a pantry my entire life and continued with it always. I was shocked at the number of people who only have beer and leftover takeout food in their frig. We don't have basements in Florida, so space is always an issue. Congratulations on your life journey with the Lord. May he continue to bless you and your family.
“My people that look like me”, lol, I love that expression!
I don't comment a lot but have been a subscriber for many years. Love your content and love seeing your basement stock. Very much an inspiration to me as well as many.
Thanks for sharing. I have read the book you are talking about years ago. I have a grocery store in my home for years now. We use fresh spring water! I rarely go to the store. We use the farmers market year round as well......... From the Ozarks
Home making is an art.
You make it look easy, Jamerrill!
I love a good pantry.
I have one too but on a smaller level but a person still needs all the skills.
I always put new lids on the empty clean jars, just a quick wash and they are ready to go. I also put the rings on, as it protects the jars from getting chips on them !
That's a great idea!
This is a great idea!!
Awesome idea!
Love that grocery in the basement!!! 😃😃😃. Tip: get the extra long bungee cords at Harbor Freight and string them across the front of the home canned jars. Will help them not tumble off if the slightest earthquake tremor rolls thru. Love your videos! Hugs, Em ❤❤❤❤
Was thinking the same. And it doesnt take much and has happened in her location. Minor and small
You are doing awesome. Woohoo. Never feel bad for having bought food on the shelves. We all do the best we can do. You are rocking this. 🇨🇦❄️
I have been watching your videos and as despite being someone without children and not in the US, I love your videos (im jealous of your food prices as they are still cheaper than home). My mum was one of 12 and my grandma always made her own jams, chutneys and baking etc. You remind me of her (a more modern version). I hope you and your family are happy and healthy xx
Your store at home is amazing! You have canned so much stuff , you rock mama!
I have a bedroom with the metal shelving units set up. My kids/grandkids call it Nana’s store😊. The thing I’m not stock enough on, would need an extra place for are the personal items/medicines/cleaning products. We have the few extra in the baths of personal items but my store was build with grown girls/2 grandkids in mind, as well that don’t live here. None, NONE, of my family, have put up, stocked anything past a week😒. So I feel the pressure to do more, just in case.
👏👏👏Sooo fantastic. We are a family of 4 and I'm hoping to have a 6 month, at least, store for us.
I love to listen to you, but I feel bad that you feel so much like you have to explain your journey. It makes me think you get a lot of negative comments like “must be nice” and stuff like that.
Just know that those of us who have been here and know you, are GLAD, and so thankful for you. You have worked so hard and God has blessed you and your family abundantly. No shame!
Anyone who gives you grief just simply doesn’t understand.
Don’t let it bother you! I know your kind heart doesn’t want to brag. I don’t see it as bragging, I see it as wildly inspiring 😊
One of my favorite movies is "Blast From The Past". They had the store in the basement along with a huge fish tank. 'The mother' (Sissy Spacek) would shop the isles. Way to go on the organization. You can really see what you have with those open shelves.
You are such an inspiration woman 😇😇😇😇😇 I look forward to all your videos 🌷🌷🦋🦋🦋🌷🌷🦋🦋🦋🌷🌷
Jamerrill you always inspire me!! And I just know God is proud of you!! You look great too! I hope you have been well! Love & prayers to you & the fam! 💙🙏And happy spring!🪺🐦
I wanted to let you know that you can get “thermometer alarms” where you can set a temperature so if you’re freezers ever go below that temperature an alarm will sound. With as many freezers and fridges that you have, it might be worth looking into so you don’t lose any food if a freezer bust.
Early 2020 before things happens or were just starting a talked to a colleague who was a student about food we keep in the house. I estimated about two months as we had just been to Metro (similar to Costco in the us) she estimated two days… I was shocked! Even as a student I always had a nstocked freezer (mostly leftovers) and things like pasta and pesto at home, that’s the way I was brought up. 🤷🏻♀️ 2020 happened and we did not have to go to the store for 4 weeks. I was proud of myself and Ebene expanded my stock pile.
Writing the best by date in sharpie on the front of your cans as you bring them in will help
I can relate to prepping for a large family. There are 10 of us that I prep for. Gardening, canning, stocking up on food when it's on sale, clearnce, and the kids help me with the canning etc. God bless you!
Awesome shelves. One of my favorite things to can is TUNA. It is really easy. I get it fresh off the boat on the coast of Oregon
You are amazing woman! May GOD richly Bless You, and provide all you may need!😊❤️👏🏼
Just FYI. Home canned goods don't have to be used in 18 months. That is the recommendation from ball because they can't guarantee their lids longer than that but the food is edible long after that if it's still sealed.
Love your little grocery store. I work from home and am a stay at home mom, I have my husband pick up curbside orders for us on the way home from his job in town. He's picking up a stock up order for us this evening (much like you we were out or running low on things I like to keep on hand). The luxury of delivery, never take it for granted! We live 50 minutes from any Walmart. The only delivery we get is USPS, UPS and FedEx haha
I think it is so awesome to have a grocery store at home. Thanks for showing us all the things. Love watching 👀 😍
The only thing I think would be a good idea is a clipboard to write down things to get. I love having a good supply on hand. Great job!!!
great idea
your such a beautiful person, May the Lord bless you and keep and cause His face to shine upon you.
Absolutely awesome. I don't have that many people to feed but I'm trying to create something similar scaled down to my family size.
Me too ,somthing I allways wanted do ,couldnt afford when my kids were young but can now ,only 2 of us now but I have a daughter and 3 grands ,love to shop at mommas
That's so sweet and generous of you to help others.
She is fantastic isnt she ,so very thoughtful and sweet
May is the month for lowest price of the year for BBQ sauce, mayo, mustard and ketchup. I buy a years worth each year and save at least 50 %.
I love your videos so much!! So inspiring!! Thank you for sharing all the goodness and fun mama stuff!
You are such an inspiration. Makes my day when I see you have uploaded another video. Many blessings to you and your family.
My dream would be to have a pantry. I live in England and we don’t have the land so our homes are smaller. Some old houses have pantry’s but newer homes don’t, I just have my kitchen cupboards and that’s it. We’re only a small family, myself, my two boys and sometimes my eldest son’s girlfriend but we do like cooking and baking so it would be amazing to have a fully stocked pantry 😍
You’ve got this..Of course you do 🌻
Love it..Jamerrill, you never gave up, and you have come so far from when you stocked up you single fridge/freezer from some years back. I mean WOW…If someone really wants it, it’s definitely doable..we just can’t give up on ourselves! You did yourself proud and I’m smiling now just thinking about how far you have come ☺️ God is so good!!
Thank you!! 😊
This is a dream!!!! Pantries just make me happy ❤🥰
Doesn't hurt to keep your store bought grocery store just in case there's a bad season of crops for canning, say apples or potatoes or anything. That way you will have store bought things from the previous year as a back up until a good crop comes in.
You are amazing! Thank you for all you do.
Btw, Do not know if it would work for you but I put my canned goods in clear plastic refrigerator organizer containers, that way each row can be easily slid out to replace ones I use in the front and put new ones in the back without having to one by one take cans off shelf to put new ones in the back or use cardboard boxes which can attract bugs and mice.
So inspiring!
It all is wonderful!! 🎉🎉
Love it 🥰
I'm giddy over here watching this!!!
I so enjoyed this video!!! I love to go with you as you talk and figure out what you need!! It encouraged me to go to my "grocery store" and get my working pantry back up to speed!!! I am by no means where you are but hopes and dreams!!! A little at a time!!!
Fantastic!! I’m proud of you!!
I’ve been waiting for this video! You are so inspiring
Amazing..that tower. Wow...
Good for you Jamerril. Very happy for you!
Absolutely loved this video ♥️
I haven't used tattlers either, but if you are going to can water, using the tattlers sometimes could be a good way to practice. Likewise canning dried beans- a lower cost food item to practice with.
Linda at Linda's pantry marks her rubber gaskets everytime she uses them to keep track of how many runs they've gone through
Yes I love the tomato canning video❤️you did an excellent job!!
Wow! Go you for all your hard work to achieve your beautiful pantry. 😊
You are wonderful and so organized❤❤
Great job Jamerrill as always ! Thank you! 🌸🌈🌸
Yeah Jemmeril you did great. Great idea all around!
Love this family
What an incredible beautiful pantry!!
Your videos are such an inspiration to me! I grew up in the LDS church and have always wanted to do food storage. You have inspired me to start!
I just love all of the home canned goodies growing and looking so beautiful 😍
Love your videos. Bless you and your family. Please keep making your videos love watching them
Look at you doing all the things!
You are an inspiration to every mother out there. I enjoy your video's, recipes and love your farm. God bless you and your family, be safe.
You are so blessed to have such a beautiful and bountiful pantry. Love your videos and look forward to seeing your next one 😊
You’ve got it all together!! I’m glad you have the room to store it all!
Kathleen here you do such a great job of teaching...thank you!
