I know this is an older video, but I just want to commend your children for thanking Elizabeth for her hard work! It’s beautiful that they can recognize one another’s contributions!!

You are such a good mother! I love watching you teach, love and interact with your children.

I really love the wholesomeness of your channel.

We got 5 bushels locally to last us into the winter too. I’ve had great luck with Granny Smith apples lasting for us. We’ve always finished them before they get soft! When I bought them this year I got talking to the owner and he said that he loved pink lady apples for storage. He said they’re like two apples in one. Tart to start and by February they become sweet apples. He said they last a year for him!

Now I have to go make a pie, and vinegar and applesauce and kombucha 😉 I just love how you influence me to be more productive 💕

Oh my goodness!!! These kids are just so precious!!! (i'd put a bunch of hearts if I were on my phone) lol

You are such a sweet mom. Love how you are teaching your kids to take part on family activities Elizabeth is a beautiful, amazing young lady.

You have a lovely family. When I watch your videos I feel like I am getting a glimpse of something very genuine and sincere. May God bless and prosper you 💕

Aawww "thank you, Elizabeth"! 🥰💕🤗 How adorable 💗. Brought happy tears to my eyes. Great job mom. Best mom award 🏆

My mother in law was the one who introduced me to the mother in a vinegar I had. I had never known what it was until I was 45 years old!!!

We had gravenstein apples from our trees. Mom would make apple pie filling, put it in zipper bags and then freeze them in a pie dish. All she had to do was make the crusts and then put the frozen filling in the crust and bake!

“Thank you Elizabeth!!”❤

What beautiful happy childrdn,so adorable..One little cherub sewing her own skirts,one young man baking pies,and the happiest baby ,the way they help to mind the baby and they clearly love each other,it is a joy to behold. Love you beautiful videos..

Did anyone else rewind to hear John John thanking Elizabeth? 🥰 how precious!

You are such an inspiration. You make mothering and homesteading look so easy! I hope to have a homestead, homeschool and make everything from scratch but I know it takes a lot of time and energy. I only have 2 kids right now and I have no idea how you get it all done! May God continue to bless your family! Thank you for sharing these parts of your life

I am so thankful that this year was different and I know this is an old video but I can say God bless you you are a wonderful parent and you seem like a wonderful lady and so what if you have a few extra kids my grandmother had 12 children and she adopted some so I can only say that some people are just meant to raise kids maybe you should think about that maybe you were meant to be this mother and God bless you with us I don't care what other people think I'll be honest I've got three kids and I would have had a bushel of them too but not with the man I was married to and I am thankful to God that you have such a good husband and such a good family thank you so much for sharing your journey with us you have beautiful children and you have a beautiful family and your husband seems like a beautiful person God bless you and thank you so much again for sharing your journey with us your families and my family's prayers

Thank You,Elizabeth for being such a blessing to your mother! Thank You for sharing your recipes and your day! Seeing the wee baby and all your children at work or play is a blessing. God bless

Thanks for the tip of the "weight". Elizabeth is a wonderful kitchen helper 😊

I just thought of this tip to stop your potatoes from getting mushy or sprouts out , put some read apples in with them. It really works and they stay so fresh.

If ever you have the time, I would love to see how you make apple cider

I'm on bedrest and have went back to some old"Jessica Videos because my next project when I'm off BEDREST is vinegars ❤ But by now i feel like part of the family how long I've been watching😂 ive no doubt seen this video back when it came out. It's hard to believe I've been watching since you were maybe pregnant with my lil smiling Nephew 4 years ago i wanna say Levi 🤷🏽‍♀️ . Oh yeah by now we you tube family😂 As always Much Love from Okc ❤❤❤❤❤

What a blessing you are to your children and viewer. Your kind ways of teaching them is just awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Found this old video and what a wonderful lesson for us all, not just Elizabeth, who was a great helper.

Beautiful momma, beautiful family, beautiful souls.God bless!

Nice to see you working with Elizabeth, she will build on the knowledge she is gaining for the rest of her life. It will make her into a capable, self assured lady. There is nothing sadder than a kid who only knows how to buy things. With the shortages we are going into now it will be especially important.

❤️❤️❤️❤️ “Thank you Elizabeth”, adorable

"Thank you, Elisabeth"! Such a sweet brother! Many greetings from the Netherlands, Enny

Gonna try making my own Apple scrap vinegar for canning season! Fingers crossed!

And you are all kids amazing , wonderful , respectful , kind , God bless you all in happy , healthy family .

I'm working a bushel of apples today, have devoured your video a few times and I can do this! 👏 APPLAUSE to Elizabeth and her Mom.. THANK YOU!

We have been blessed to have friends allow us to pick their extra pears. Last year I canned/froze about 300 pounds of pears. About half way through the process I realized I could make pear cider vinegar with the scraps. It has saved is so much money and it tastes the same as apple cider vinegar!

I just love watching you with your children. Mine are grown now. I have two sons. You are such a strong woman! My body would not have done this 7 times. Mine were 10lbs at birth and I am little. You look so good-Just amaze me. Such a beautiful family and you love the Lord. Good job . I am a grandma now. Going to work on some apples today and make vinegar for the first time! Thank You for sharing.

So good to hear u snack on ur chocolate chips….I do that too😣

I make apple pie filling and can it and we love it! Just FYI.

Those sweet expressions of appreciation at the end.... simply precious!

@threerivershomestead ❤ your teaching and your family! You’re teaching them LIFE skills and creating experiences that they will have forever. Questions- are you able to can this Apple pie recipe? Also, can you use frozen apple scrapes to make apple vinegar or do the scrapes need to be fresh? Thank you.

Vinegar making is the easiest process in the kitchen! I am using all the rather damaged fruit I have in the garden. Put them In a barel. Even in a period of weeks. Only if the weather is colder I add some sugar. After a time, few weeks, I just take the juice in bottels, let them to continue the process. Now and then I look at them if they clear. In the mean time I am using the previous years Vinegar. If I have small quantities like berries, I am using small bottels and add some more sugar. The process speads up and the Summer salads are have a great taste.

Very well explained thankyou

I was making a cinnamon apple dutch baby when I found this video. Great timing.

I love how loved she is.

Such an informative video. Thanks for all the info. I was going to make a video with my attempt at apple scrap vinegar but I was worried it wouldn’t turn out. I am new to vinegars. Thanks again!

That baby is so sweet!

Thank you for the very valuable information. I loved this vid. I’ve been wanting to make my own vinegar. Now I can try by using your recipe, looks pretty simple. :)

Great tip about adding vinegar to your chicks and ducklings' water. We've been making vinegar for a year or two now, but have struggled with kahm yeast. Thanks for the video. Just subscribed :)

You inspire me to be more industrious in my household. Thank you for the great videos!

Thank you for this video, Jessica. It inspired me to start apple scrap vinegar when I made my apple sauce yesterday.

I know what I m doing tomorrow! i love your videos. Thanks & God bless you & yours.

I learn so many great things watching! Thanks!

Thank you for showing us how to make vinegar.

I enjoyed watching your video! Thanks for sharing how you do this!

Thank you!

❤️🙏❤️🙏☮️I love this channel immediately!

Thank you I am going to make the apple cider vinegar. So easy. Good video

Very sweet! The pies and the sauce and the video!

I really enjoyed this. Can’t wait to try it myself!

Our area last spring had little to no peaches because of a late frost. I don't think apples were an issue last year. I'm excited to can peaches this year since I couldn't do many last year.

Should I have my jar sealed while waiting for it to turn to vinegar over the six month (or so) period? I’m seeing my level go down quite significantly with a breathable cover like it’s evaporating. Thanks for all your lovely videos by the way. I love watching your channel.

You have sweet children ❤

I'm going to try this. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for making this video, but I'm still going to message you pictures of my ACV with questions...lol ❤

When I heard sarah say you are in ohio, I had look you up. Just subscribed, love this video and want to try this. I go thru alot of acv.

Love your videos and the work you put into them. Just a question about making the apple cider vinegar -- what if I am making it *for the first time* and do not have any previous batch to add as you did in yours? Does this make a difference -- I imagine it just takes the process longer. Thanks.

You are so intelligent.

Loved all of this! I have a question on making the apple scrap vinegar. After adding in the apple cores, water and sugar, you mentioned adding some already made AC vinegar. Can I use the store bought Braggs ACV with the mother? I’m thinking it should be fine, but wanted to ask just in case.

🥰🥰

Thanks for a great tutorial! We don’t go through apples as quickly (small family of 3). Can I freeze thr scraps until i have enough for making vinegar? Thank you!

Can you can the apple pie filling? Would you water bath or pressure can and which sized jar would you use for a pie? I waterbathed once but wasn't sure if I did it right.

Hi great video - I have a question about making Apple cider vinegar.. do you add yeast to your apple juice to make your cider and do you add sugar?

Where can I buy some "mother" AND "scoby"? I really wanna make some jalapeno vinegar, start making kombucha and learn how to make jalapeno extract...any help would be greatly appreciated! TIA

What if a light pinkish solid forms on top when making the scrap vinegar? It’s not fuzzy like mold. It’s dry on top since it’s not touching any liquid but slimy on the bottom. Doesn’t smell bad at all.

can you use vegetables past it's prime to make vinegar

omgosh so sweet: "This is good! Thank you Elizabeth!" 😍🥰❤️ I don't know if you'll see this question at this late date, but is that a gluten free pie you made? The dough held together so well!

beautiful 🌹 Blessings

I’m curious to know what the arsenic levels are in this. The apple seeds themselves contain a good amount of arsenic. We typically avoid this in our diet because seeds aren’t used in apple sauce, apple butter, apple juice, etc. just something to think about. There’s no argument as to the benefits but it might be healthier to pop those seeds out first.

Bonjour de la France dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de sous traité 😞

What if I don't have any apple cider to put in the new jar?

Hi, do you use a fermenting weight when fermenting the apple peels? If not, do you stir it every now and again? My peels are a little above the water line. Thanks!

What’s a good substitute for arrowroot powder?

What about the cyanide in the apple pips, isn’t it dangerous to ferment those!

Thanks for this video. After the vinegar sits for 4-6 months, do you do anything else to it? Does it continue to get stronger?

Hi i just found your channel and i have a question about home made vinegar. I made my first batch of apple scrap vinegar last year. I love the taste of it but the actual vinegar is thickish, almost like it has the pectin from the apple in it. Have you ever had that happen? Thank you, great video Oh Ps....i do have a thick mother in it as well.

Why is my apple cider vinegar spilling over? I've watched a few videos and have followed the directions. They have been fermenting for about a week and when I check on them every day there is always a mess.

For those of us that dont have a winter. What temp should apples be stored at?

What do u make w all the vinegars?

Do you have the recipe for applesauce loaf? I would love to try it 😃

My first attempt is aging now, but the mother is at the bottom instead of floating at the top. What did I do wrong? Will the vinegar still be OK?

Mine is growing yucky stuff on top after I strained the apples. Has yours done this before? This is exactly what happened years ago when I tried this the first time....and hence why I haven't tried since 😭

A film I am watching just now has apple pie and vinegar too sweet in a courthouse

You have a lot of beautiful Long whether baskets. Do you live near Dresden?

Can you use frozen apple scraps?

If I don't have a "mother" to add to my jar to make apple scrap vinegar, what can I use?

My vinegar has a film of white mold/yeast on the top. Ruined??

You mentioned that you don't have dairy, and I think you mentioned something about gluten in a different video. I'd love to know more about your family's food allergies/intolerances. I am newly dairy and egg free, but cooking for my large family that isn't.

How do you start your first battle of apple scrap vinegar if you can’t find unpasteurized vinegar for a mother, please?

Is there a use for crab apples?

❤️❤️❤️

Can you do pressure canning with home made apple cider vinegar?

Where did you get your recipe basket from? I love it

Why did the pie not brown? Mine always browns. And I cant use dairy as I'm allergic, same with gluten. I always have to use a pie edge cover so they dont over brown. Just wondering.

I love your videos keep making videos please take you📹📼📸📽🎥📷😇🙂🙃😉🤣😂☺️😊😁😄😀
