Hi Katie!! Blessings from Iowa. We are a small cow calf to freezer beef operation. To answer your question reguarding the prices of beef, over the last few years much of the country which produces beef has burnt up in wild fires and or drought. There has been a few major blizzards, combined with sky high feed cost,(be it corn, distillers and even hay), many farms and ranches have let go of their cattle. The US has the lowest cattle numbers since the 60s... it takes alot of time to rebuild these numbers to where our country needs them to feed folks....a female should not ideally have her 1st calf until 2 years of age, said calf then takes average of 14 to 16 months to fatten to market size...cattle typically only have 1 calf. She carries the baby 9 months, and will take 60 to 90 days to rebreed. This means 1 calf per cow per year...
Our animals run about 900 # hot carcass weight, once cooled, hung for 2 weeks (shrink due to moisture loss) and deboned of certain inetible parts such as the spine, fat trim etc, you end up with 580 to 600 lbs take home. Now this is prime cuts all used steaks, roasts 1st. Out of a prime cut beef 240lbs is a "typical" ground. So as you can see a huge live beef does condence down quickly thus driving the per piece price up.
I hope this helps a little. Now of course there are all kinds of disclaimers and details but this is a general idea, we have raised locker beef now over 15 years, our animals do receive some corn but are NOT hard fed feedlot style cattle they have space, grass is summer, hay in winter. I say this not to beat our chest or start an arguement, i say this because it effects the timelime of our animal production. Each farmer is slightly different. Please know in general we farmers just want to provide the best we can to everyones family. This is the same meats we feed our own children.
Blessings from a farm mom in Iowa.
Thanks for taking the time to write all of that out!! I pinned it for others to see first!! Thanks for watching🌻🌻🌻
Thank you Katie! We by all means dont know it all or " do it right" by some... But we try our best. Believe me when we even as producers say "we understand" the amount layed out and the cost to family living.
Please don’t apologize for being a real mom, no one should judge you!! You’re doing amazing!
Thank you Kitty!! I dint even realize I’m doing it. 😅🌻🌻
I agree, with 5 kids, you have to have some convenience foods in the house.
@terrysincheff6682 thank you!!
💯💯💯💯
My mom always mashed up the bones in salmon when she made salmon patties and I'm 73 and it sure didn't hurt me. You are an awesome mom. Good bless you and your precious family
Thank you!! 🌻🌻🌻
You’re the Energizer bunny! Don’t know if it’s the relief and excitement of being all stocked up or the anxiety from sticker shock-satisfying and overwhelming all at the same time! Job well done, now make a hot cup of soothing tea and put your feet up for a while!
Thanks!! You actually just reminded me that I put the electric kettle on and I walked away and laid down- now I need to go make my night night tea😅🌻🌻🌻
67 yrs old and I still buy baby wipes. If they’re good for babies, they’re good for me. 😁
Me too! My boys are teenagers now but I still buy wipes💥🌈🎊
the organic ground beef is 3 packets, but is four pounds. So you got 12 pounds of ground beef. That makes it a little less expensive.
Oh good to know!!! I clearly didn’t pay attention when I picked it up. I still don’t get why it’s gone up so much in just a few months. Might have to start eating more beans🌻🌻🌻
Good grocery haul!
Thanks for watching Susan!!
4lb organic ground beef 3 pack is on sale at aldi tomorrow $4.25 a pound. Grass fed as well
I wish we had ALDIs!!
I don't have any kids, but I still do the "easy meals" at times if I'm really busy or just feel like it. Nothing wrong with that. Your family eats very healthy.
Great haul and lots of great items for your family❤
Thank you Brenda🌻🌻🌻
Love your family!
I’m a gramma , and my grandkids are past diaper stage and we still buy cases of baby wipes , they have multiple purposes , and we also use them to wipe dog paws 😊
Girl...Sam's Club, grassfed organic ground beef is still $15. Food prices are crazy, I rarely shop at Kroger anymore. So thankful for my Sharp Shopper, if you move back to VA you too can go to SS! 😂❤
That’s awesome! We don’t have a Sam’s club😅 I love shop shopper! I watch Jammeril’s hauls.
I was wondering if you watched Jammeril when I wrote that, so funny you mentioned it! 😂❤
I live in Redmond, Oregon, so the Bend Costco is where we shop. I know that store well!
That was my first time there. A little different set up but mostly the same as the one in Medford. Bend is such a beautiful city. So much to see there. I enjoyed driving around town. Thanks for watching🌻🌻🌻
Yay for Grocery Outlet! It’s the only place in Redmond that I can find the Salsa Ranch salad kits! And milk there is cheaper than most other stores.
It’s got its perks!! I like going there to see what they have cause they get different things. 🌻🌻
Those organic ground beef packages are over a pound each. I think 4lbs total across the 3 packages. Still expensive for sure though. Grocery prices are getting ridiculous.
We had this discussion a few comments down- and I looked they are 1.33lbs each😅😅😅
YES! Socks with sandals! I grew up in CO so I love it!!!
It’s kinda a joke- but also- it’s really comfortable!! Plus we are 40 now so it’s totally acceptable and when in Bend hahaha. 😂
We live in Bend now! I just went to Costco tonight. I love having it at my finger tips now so many good items but the A2 dairy was exciting to me. 😃
It was exciting to me too- are we dairy nerds or what😂😂😂 Molly Murders- do I know you in real life?!? I did know a Molly Murders…. Just wondering if it’s you!
@@RowesRising Yep! From Klamath! I am pretty non existent on the interwebs these days... Hi! 🤣
@mollymurders172 hi!!!!! I can’t see your profile pic on my mobile well so I was double checking. How are you all?? Bend is so cool. There is a lot of development happening on the way there from here. So many new subdivisions.
@@RowesRising It's huge compared to klamath and we're still getting used to that busyness of it. But there's so much to do and see we are happy 😊
@mollymurders172 I’m sure there is definitely something for everyone there. I’m so glad you are thriving there!! 🌻🌻🌻
Nothing wrong with easy meals! A lot better and cheaper than fast food.
I loved the opening with your family. I grew up in a family of 7 also, and we had to cut corners whenever possible. My Grandma always made yogurt, bread, and egg noodles.
I made a heater for making yogurt, and don't buy it from the store.
I recently made yogurt in the instant pot. It’s great and I really should make it more often.
@@RowesRising I don't have an instant pot, so I made mine out of an old coffee can with a small light bulb in the bottom. I put a bowl of milk/starter on top, and cover with a towl.
@terrysincheff6682 that’s so clever!!
The ground beef packets are more than a pound. I think it's like a pound and a quarter. I think the 3 pack is 5lbs total.
I just looked at the package cause I was told it’s 4lbs total in another comment. Package says 1.34lbs each so I was way off😅 fast shopping momma I paid little attention to measurements I was just slinging groceries. Catching my breath today haha
Grocery outlet is the best. It’s the west coast version of Aldi 😂
And Aldi was in the UK before it got stateside. I wonder if it will ever make it west?
@@RowesRising I doubt it haha
@Jesusfamilycoffee grocery outlet has the market on lock.
Your in Bend! I just saw this. I was up there last Wednesday to take a friend to cancer treatment.
I’m sorry to hear that about your friend. I hope the treatment is helping. Isn’t bend beautiful?!?! And the best doctors are there so that’s a great place for your friend. I had a good experience yesterday with a doctor there. ❤️🩹
Regular beef is expensive also
I went to Sams Club yesterday and spent $500 on meat,it was crazy expensive. I definitely need to find a half a beef again.
Kids, maple syrup, save$, there is a recipe basically simple syrup with molasses...its SO GOOD! You can add maple/butter flavoring but you don't have to.
I have lots of molasses! I’ll look that up.
@@RowesRising 3C sugar, 1 1/2C water, 3Tbsp ( or less we like it dark) Bring to Gentle Boil, stirring, set aside to cool ( it will thicken as cools) *can add 1 tsp vanilla, 1tsp maple extract, 2tsp butter extract tastes like "M Butterwort. "
I’m surprised you get any potatoes from tomato plants lol 😂
🤣🤣🤣😂 My mom brain is on 🔥
As soon as you buy a lot of something they are eating you out of home on... They decide they don't want it anymore. 🤣
#fatherOf4
Haha you get it!!
If it makes you feel any better, those 3 packs of ground beef add up to 4 pounds, not 3. Every little bit helps.
That makes me feel a tad better. They are 1.33lbs each- I looked closer. Thank you😅🌻🌻🌻
Do you think buying Organic maple syrup is necessary? How many syrup makers use pesticides etc on their trees? Just curious if that is something just as uh healthy in regular?
I actually talked about this in my last vlog. I prefer buying real maple syrup and the “organic” doesn’t matter. I bought it so I don’t have to drive to another store. There wasn’t another option. Cause think about it- are they spraying pesticides on these maple trees? Likely not. Just paying for the certified organic. Sometimes it’s less expensive- I have found at Walmart sometime the organic is less than the regular real maple syrup.
Beef hopefully price will go back down this summer ( stock up!) Last year Aldi had the organic beef for $1.99 a pound, for about 3 weeks! Think it was around July. Other stores in area were competitive prices too. I bought 2 cases! Lol Hubby thought I was crazy😂😂
Thank you for the heads up!! I’ll keep my eye out. We still have some beef but we like mince the most😅
@@RowesRising I dehydrated some of ours its been so helpful. Butter is my question...WHY is " real" butter 10lb?! Even cheaper is $4lb...I am seriously considering changing our diets due to the costs. This year we might not be able to garden due to work on house... Not sure I can resist with these prices! Banana.60lb... used to be 3lb for $1....not organic apples $2lb... I used to pay .99... Does anyone remember prices 4-6 years ago?! I remember the first time I saw packages of food get LARGER ( remember 16 oz cans) with weight INCREASED because they had to, so they could charge us more🤣
@shervin6711 I remember and I probably have an old receipt… I’ll have to look and do a grocery receipt from years ago- and buy the same things again to price compare. We buy the same stuff and I have noticed the price increases. But I’d like to know exact amount that they have inflated😅
Each one of those packs of ground beef is more than a pound
1.33lbs to be exact 😅
Food is ridiculous expensive. I thought of raising meat but it’s so expensive just to have it processed! Can’t win. Love you apologizing 😂 it’s ok we moms have do what we have to survive! Especially with garden season
“Sorry not sorry!!”” Haha 😂 Somedays it’s survival mode around here. I didn’t make any cuts in edit on the main haul- so whatever I said- I never re watched it I just let it fly this vlog- I normally edit out so much of what I run my mouth about but this was a late night and I figured I didn’t swear so it’s probably fine. 😅 Thanks for watching!!
So so sad how expensive food is. Organic or otherwise. Simply all expensive. However if it goes into the body needs to be healthy as you say in moderation. I believe you have this under great control for your family. I recently saw a recipe for spinach soup with broccoli 🥦 in it.
Sauté onions and onion greens. Then add garlic if u like and potatoes cup up cubed .add 4 cups chicken broth and 1 pound spinach salt and pepper cook till tender
Blend and you can add cream at end too if u like.
You can add broccoli as well for extra flavor and chunks. I like them as well in it. Top with croutons and serve hot.
I have all the ingredients for that! I’ll give it a try. Thanks for watching and writing that out🌻🌻🌻🌻
If anyone "comes at you" for your mom-of-5 choices... Block them 🙂
Love it!!
Cuz momma knows better than to eat "Costco pizza" 😅
Maybe it’s the reason my pancreas went bad- can’t eat that kind of stuff anymore.
@@RowesRising Costco and Sam's "restaurant" food do not go into my system. I'm to old for that... LoL
You are wound up! Wish I had that energy!
Haha it was a long day and I was jazzed to finish up and hit the hay. 😅🌻🌻🌻
Nope nope nope... Too much $$$... Come back to the South! 😅
Hoping to someday sooner than later.
I shopped at Grocery outlet yesterday and I'm from the Northwest the prices are OUTRAGEOUS, I can't believe they almost match the normal store prices. I've been shopping there for over thirty years and saddened by how much prices there have gone up. Please show your prices from Grocery outlet so I can compare. Just passed over the meats because the prices where high. Bread has gone up to same prices at FM and SW.i don't know because they are individual owned or just the area I live in Washington.😢
I mostly find the snacks and cereals are a good deal there.
Thats more than 3#.
You’re right- I wasn’t in my right mind. Someone else said it’s 4lbs😅
Guess what? You're gonna pay more regardless. Organic is gonna be more.
Guess what- I said you would say that. 😅🌻🌻🌻
Nooooo!!!! Pete's sucks 😢
Go to Trader Joe's... Better coffee, and cheaper than Costco
I need to go to Trader Joe’s. Haven’t been there in years!
Meat prices are going up due to diseased cows. Gas is going up because Ukraine bombed Russian oil fields as well as supply and demand. Lots of other products going up because the bridge that collapsed in Baltimore was a major thoroughfare to bring in food. It's frustrating for sure. I also believe corporate greed has a lot to do with it. They are saying they lost so much money during the pandemic so they have to make up for lost $. Some items are actually coming down. Bacon is one. More to come hopefully.
That all makes sense and it is very frustrating.
Thank Biden for the increase in food and all things.
Ain’t that the truth!!
I like watching your vlogs but it's hard to watch while you spend the video apologizing for everything.People cant be that critical.
I should not apologize- I don’t even realize I’m doing it, honestly.
