Thank you all so much for believing in my farm dream and this channel. Don’t underestimate how much JOY you bring me and my family. I love becoming a farm girl alongside you!

I love how comfortable you have become with harvesting birds. You are a natural!
Thank you! I really appreciate you saying this because you are absolutely right---I was stressed about doing this last year and now I really feel like I have the basics (although I can still improve my butchering). The secret is having so many supportive friends rallying around you.
@@BecomingaFarmGirlI have done it once but I an far from comfortable and I need to gain this skill! Any chance you could do a step by step? Obviously a video would be great but even just pics or words
What a great community you’ve grown . I’m such an introvert I’ve never been good at the social stuff, but Cassandra… wow! You’re one of those precious gems that does nothing much else than add value to the rest of the setting. Blessings sweet friend.
I am always so happy when a new video comes out of yours!
I make fire cider from homeade apple cider vinegar. It is dramatically easier to drink. It is worth the extra effort. Great job all you do!
Your salsa reminded me that we used to put peaches in our salsa... Thank you for the variety reminder.♥
You can also freeze them after the parboiling stage and take them out 1or 2 at a time for later baking. If you have a toaster oven you can have fresh baked, warm from the oven bagels on demand in 20 mins! This was a weekend staple at my house when my kids were growing up. So good!..and it has the benefits of 1) no stale bagels left over and 2) breaking up what can be 🎉a tedious 2 part cooking process.
Oh this is a SMART idea! Thank you for sharing I love, love, LOVE this idea!!!! I'm so glad you wrote it down for me and others to see!
Thank you!
Just adding if anyone has issues with their bagels rising after trying this. You can also freeze them before you boil them. I've had successes and failures with both ways, so I typically just bake them all and then freeze the leftovers because bagels freeze beautifully across several stages of production.
Been following for a while now and LOVE that you make nature natural. I.E. normal. Keep these vids coming! ❤️❤️❤️
A delightful pantry chat, as always, Cassandra! I know we have been harvesting our front yard garden quite regularly lately - tomatoes, peppers (sweet, mild, and hot), beans, okra, squash, Canary melons... But I have been shopping in-season produce we aren't growing, too. Your chats have helped remind me of something I knew growing up (that was never said then) and that was fresh in-season produce is always less expensive than produce that is not in season locally.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the pantry chat! And yes, seasonal produce and meal planning around these food groups is one of the easiest ways to control grocery store costs all year long!
I am so thankful you do these, ever since I found you I have been motivated and less scared to start doing this for myself
Hey dear! Thank you so much for all you do! The June pantry chat I don't think has ever come through (at least for me it hasn't) and the July one is having difficulty as well. I just wanted to let you know just in case it's a glitch or something! Thank you again! Appreciate all your insight, tips, and beautiful spirit. ❤️
Youre not the only one....I have yet to receive one since signing up.
Mine haven't shown up for me either.
I can’t get the link to work either…
Ditto 😢
That was a huge snapper!!!
It's called Römer topf and I have a whole collection of them from turkey sized to very small. I found one that was brand new and never used at Goodwill years ago. When my dad died, I inherited my parent's which was well used and loved. That one probably came with us when we moved from Germany to Connecticut way 46 years ago. I have one that lasted longer than my first marriage and was a wedding gift. Most of mine are not glazed on the bottom so I have to soak both halves in water for 15 minutes before using.
I have two the size of Cornish game hens. I use them often as I am now a widowed empty nester and just don't want to deal with a whole chicken. They are good for small game birds like quail too. I make a wild rice stuffing for them...have meals for the week and all the broth, dehydrated dog treats, and bone meal benefits without the daunting prospect of working through a whole chicken. Love mine. The big ones are also great for fish! I got all of mine brand new at yard sales, so not too hard to find.
I love your garden-forward recipes! I have 2 zucchini recipes to share:
Zucchini "Poker Chip Rack" Casserole:
I use bulgur, because it will cook in the same time as the vegetables, but you could substitute other grains if you soak and cook them to within 20 minutes of done).
Layer your bulgur (or par-cooked grain of choice) in a greased casserole dish 1/2 inch thick. You want enough grain to absorb the liquid from the veggies as they cook.
Slice zucchini, summer squash, tomatoes and onion into rounds. Toss to coat in olive oil with salt, pepper, pesto, and garlic powder. Layer in the casserole dish on top of the grains in vertical rows, alternating colors, as if you're racking poker chips.
Top the casserole with shredded/grated cheese of your choice. Bake at 350 F for 30-45 minutes (depending how thickly you sliced your veggies).
Zucchini pizza
Use youur favorite pizza dough recipe.
Soften 6 oz goat cheese and blend in 1 tsp each: garlic powder, oregano, marjoram, salt, pepper. Spread cheese mixture onto rpizza round, creating a thin, even layer.
Slice zucchini and summer squash into thin rounds (1/4" or less). Lightly toss in oil with a little salt and pepper.
Arrange squash rounds on the pizza round in an overlapping spiral pattern starting from the outer edge and working inward.
Top with a dry grated cheese like parmesan. Bake your pizza as usual.
FYI roosters hate water so if you carry a water bottle and when they get close give them a bath. It doesn’t hurt them but it worked like a charm on my parents roosters
I made your pork chops and peaches recipe and it was SO GOOD!!
Your dad with that fish! Oh my goodness! He's a champ!
Hey Cassandra! I agree that it's been a scorcher here in Maryland. Glad to see another video from you.
Weren't you glad for the rain we got on Tuesday ( I think it was Tuesday night). Today was beautiful, by goodness-that heat has been tough on the garden, for pets, livestock, but that's how it goes sometimes!
You are a thousand times more engaging and helpful than the Pioneer Woman - who I did watch for a while - but she leaves out healthy and FRUGAL - which most of us need :) LOL I adore your channel. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Cassandra for your wonderful vlogs. Yes, I'm going to try strawberries in salsa.
I really love your channel I wish you put out more videos 😊.
We really need to start making our own bagels, so expensive at the store but seemed intimidating to make at home. Your steps don't seem as daunting so we'll definitely have to look into it! Always here to save money!
Honey, I was the same way and yes---making your own isn't hard at all. It's not a long list of ingredients, they don't need to "sit and proof" for long and they taste wonderfully, and yes---they are so less expensive!
@@BecomingaFarmGirl loving your bagels, what are the ingredients/recipe? Thanks
I’m turned off from meat these days. I keep seeing meet infested with parasites all over online. Way to go with your farm girl journey. Thank you for sharing.😊
thank you Cassandra, I really enjoy your presentations. and I might just be learning a bit too.
I love this! Everything looks so good. I have to get my hands on that grocery guide!
I love your content! No nonsense and right to the enchilada! What a wonderful soul you are! I appreciate you!!!!
Salmon w that salsa YUM! And the zucchini. Oh my!
Yum salsa with strawberries sounds delicious. The bagels looked amazing. I'm definitely baking some of those. Oh your Dad was so excited with his Red Snapper catch. Sorry it was the wrong season. The plump chickens had beautiful skin and a great weight. There you are the pro helping the newbie. I know you had a great day. Keep on gardening and have a great weekend. Send some rain to Texas it's really hot here.
Thank you so much for sharing very good.😊
My pleasure 😊
Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤
You are so welcome
lol!! I love your parents They are hilarious and having the times of their lives!!
Love your videos, Cassandra. You are truly an inspiration. I’m relocating to Virginia in a couple of weeks and hope to expand on gardening and move into preserving. I, too, am a teacher, so I really appreciate your perspectives. Blessings to you and your family.
Reminded me of when I was a young girl and my parents raised meat birds at a suburban home. I took care of my first one at age 7 with a little hatchet on a stump and learned how to process them. I haven't processed one for 70 years, but I still love chicken. Oh forgot, I also helped put my husband through college working in a chicken factory that processed a few thousand chickens a day and I happily quit that job after a year and began my teaching career.
Wow you are really becoming a farm girl 😊
Thank you for another fantastic pantry chat 🥰 and yes it has been pretty brutal here in MD with this heat🙃 as always, already looking forward to the next video! Be blessed 🥰😘
I think this is the earliest I’ve been to one of these 🎉
Haha! Hey friend! Thanks for stopping by. :)
So excited for this pantry chat 😁Thank you girlie
Hope you liked it and are having a safe and fun summer!
Chicken feet make the best broth ever!
I hope the pantry chat comes through this month (I never got the June one), because those bagels look delish! I’ve been experimenting a lot this year with milling my own flour, so I’d be interested to see if this recipe works with that. And it’s a bummer that your dad had to throw that giant fish back, landing that looks like a huge accomplishment!
For colds/flus I like to use a spoonful of
One cup sea salt; one cup cayenne pepper smushed together and then pour over one cup of boiling water and stir until cool and add one cup apple cider vinegar
LOVE overnight oats girl!!
Thanks for sharing. Cheers.
Love your channel. I learn so much!
Cassandra these recipes are amazing! I have signed up twice but have yet to get a grocery guide... I'll try once more! I really want that bagel recipe!
Please help! The newsletter sign up won't load...
I look forward every month to getting the pantry chat grocery list and recipes in my email, but noticed I haven't in a while. I even searched Becoming a Farm Girl and the last one that came up was April. So the sign up looked different than what I remembered, but now I'm old-er and my memory is certainly not the best. lol Anyway, when I click on the link in your description, it gives an error stating the page is not found. 😢 I don't know what to do and am so bummed. Has anyone else told you they couldn't sign up either?
Hey girl! Love ya 🙏❤️🙂
I’m removed enough to realize that if I had to process my own food, I would eat fish. Anything that relies on me for food and care I become emotionally attached to, except for fish. So kudos to you for having the fortitude to process your own birds.
Thank you! Today O had tge early tomatoes, cucumber and first zucchini. Had leftovers for supper, but for dinner I made cuc.ber and to.ato salad as well as baked parmesan zucchini "fries". I haven't my pressure cooker yet, but I see bread and butter pickles coming up unless you have a recipe for red relish maybe? I do t have that shepherding network and my yard is too small for chickens, but I did order my first Greenstalk! Thx for the discount. Came in handy o. Top of the an iversary sale! Live this life!
Hi Becoming a farm girl, thanks for the inspiration on cooking new dinners ❤
You are so cool!
welcome back sis 🥰
Thank you! I've been taking things slower with filming this summer, but its been busier than ever on my friends farms!
So sad I haven't gotten your grocery guide since May. I really want to learn how to do the fire cider.
Me neither.
@@shawssiesundial5006 Mine came after I made the comment.
Love the earrings
loved the video!
Aww, I appreciate this so much! Truly!
I'm not receiving my panty chat emails and the link isn't working. What am I doing wrong?
Cassandra I didn’t get June’s newsletter/recipes
It's funny that you say that you're in "day 3 of a heatwave"...I live in very Southern California, and we've been over 100⁰+ since the end of May, with no end in sight (and we haven't had any rain since then, either)until probably November...anyway,,enjoying your channel! 💙💚
Hey, Cassandra!
Love seeing your videos! You’re so fun and upbeat!
Lil question for ya…
What do you do with the heads and feet? I’d love to know how those are used.
I absolutely love this video!! Please let me know if you get the link working, I would love the recipes from this video 😊 I really want to do fire cider this year. Thank you for the idea to start it now!
Always look forward to your videos. Learn so much!
Peach and vadelia onion salsa. Mmmmmmm
Is there a recipe for your bagels? They look delicious and I have some dried blueberries in the pantry. I hope you brought home some chicken feet, they make great broth.
I love these chats! Always so helpful! ❤
❤❤❤
meal planning, stocking the pantry and freezers, loss leaders AND coupons are the way to save. This weeks digital coupon at one of the stores I shop at has grapes for 77¢ a lb. !
Amen, sister! That grape price is a steal. The lowest that I've seen the past few years has been .99/lb
Kids in the US already start school in august?
i signed up for your newsletter months ago and the last time i actually got one was in may
What happened to last months guide? I would still like a copy for the information and recipes! Thank you so much!
How is the in ground garden space doing? Thank you for all the information you share and recipe ideas.
It's going well, but not looking to pretty in this heat! I'll share an update soon!
Unless u used the green tops of the tomatoes in the salad as well, you wasted A LOT when u cut off those tops. Cut off WAY more than u needed to.
Your videos are amazing!😊 Thank you for sharing! Please keep me posted when your link is working. I really want to make your bagels!! TIA
Hey! Hope all is well. Your link attached to this description is still not working. I would love to make the bagels recipe. TIA😊
Hi Cassandra! The grocery guide is not active when clicked on.
Hi Cassandra. The Grocery Guide page won't load. Is there another link? Thanks!
Where do I get the printable “in season” list?
Hi, I cannot access your newsletter or even get any windows to open the link you posted in this video. Google and duck duck go won't open it.
same here. what is password
Hey! Is the Newsletter link broken for anyone else?
I've signed up twice for your seasonal grocery lists and stuff, never received any of them. Is there any way to receive all 12 months of lists, all at once?
Hi! the link for the pantry chat is not working for me ;(
Never mind. I'm Carnivore. 😅
How much of the firesider mixture do you take daily?
And how do you know when it is ready?
Hi friend! It'll need to steep for at least 6-8 weeks and after that you can strain the contents. I'll start taking a shot glass full every morning about 2 weeks before school starts and then maybe 1-2 times a week as part of a health routine. But--the second I or my husband feels a tickle in our throat, or start sneezing too much, we'll take a shot glass every 3-4 hours (if were thinkin' its a cold coming on). This usually knocks whatever it is right on out!
@@BecomingaFarmGirl Thank you are wonderful, I will try!
I click on the link for the newsletter, but my browser can't open the page due to the page being unsecured. 😢
I can't get to it either. :(
Sorry about this, fixing now!
I can not get the guide it won’t load…😢
Me either.
I keep subscribing but YT keeps unsubscribing me.
What can i substitute cilantro with? I dont like it
I don’t like it either. Just leave it out.
I substitute with parsley
You absolutely can! My friend (who, like you, doesn't like cilantro because it tastes soapy) usually uses basil, thyme, or whatever herb she has on hand. You can also leave it out too!
Hi Ms. Cassandra! I belong to the genetics 23 and Me group. A while back, they sent me a notice that I have a gene that makes cilantro taste bad (like soap). So you can tell youfriend it's probably in her genes to hate cilantro! Here in south Texas that's important to know!! Love your videos! Keep up the great work!
