Wow, those stores are much bigger than I would’ve imagined. I’m from Ireland and I immigrated to Canada and live in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta. So my lifestyle is very similar to yours now. Are used to shop very similar to you stocking up and making sure I have a good supply of everything. I still do this however, I have changed it a little since Covid and I had a lot of time, I buy my meats directly farmers. Dozens of chickens, full pig, and a side of beef. I’ve started to learn my own butchery wouldn’t win any awards, but it still tastes good on the plate. I’ve also started making a lot of my own food from scratch from canned foods to jams pickles, I even make condimentsmake my own ketchup that takes a lot longer than you would imagine. Do organic beef was a bit expensive six dollars a pound for ground beef. Buying direct from the farmer was a bit cheaper. I paid four dollars a pound that’s Canadian as well that’s grass fed and grass finished beef hundred percent organic. I’ve had some people compare it to the ground beef and ask me if it’s worth the effort. Had to tell them you put it into perspective you spend a day butchering it vacuum, sealing it and putting it away but not everything is ground beef and even getting my roast and steaks at four dollars a pound you can’t be that price.. I butcher my pig and make my own bacon ham sausages, and even some cured Italian deli meats still learning. Has an Irish person when I say make my own bacon it’s different than what people in America would imagine. In the US when you say bacon, it is what Irish people would refer to as streaky rashers. As you walk into a butcher in Ireland and asked for bacon, they would ask you what you would want. It’s like walking into a bakery and say give me bread. You have to be a little bit more precise. as we have streaky rashers which is your style of bacon, but we also have Canadian bacon, Irish back rashers, collar of bacon and shoulder of bacon. Of course that’s all the straight up salty bacon it’s not including this smoked or maple bacon. Even though we all speak English, it’s strange how we have different names for the same thing. Sorry rambled on for a bit.

You've popped up in my U-Tube feed for the 1st time today. I live in Southern middle Tennessee not far from Alabama border. We recently had 8 inches of snow and it was beautiful for the first day. It was then a mess for the next 4 days. The schools were closed for a week. I am, every day, amazed that people live in such extreme weather places. I prefer my water warm and wet, not cold and frozen. However, I really admire your strength and ability to make life for your family and animals work and be comfortable. May God bless you all and keep you safe thru the winter.

BTW, I really liked your "deck" in your garage with your fridge, etc. That's a great idea!

Hi Jessica, Aaron and sweet family! I just wanted to say that Aaron has the best sense of humor. I bet you both were exhausted going to the many stores especially if they are busy. It’s a great feeling to have the pantry upstairs and downstairs stocked for the winter. Knowing you have what you need for your family is a blessing to really be thankful for, that’s how I would feel when my youngins were little. Garden like a maniac in the summer and put up everything you could get your hands on. Have hog dispatching in the fall and make sausage then smoke your meats. Have a beef done for you and be done by Thanksgiving to take a breath for the fruits of your labor. Good job you two and Wyatt helping made it a little easier. I hope you and the family have a blessed week!

Jessica I don’t know if you know this DO NOT BUY COSTCO TOILET PAPER. It is hard on your septic system. IT DOES NOT BREAK DOWN. I also put yeast a pkg once a month down the toilet to help grow microbes in the septic tank. (A man in his 80’s told me to do this)Yes I am a 62 year old lady but I help build & lay septic systems in my late 20ty & early 30’s. My husband & I also put in over 100 tanks in a small town every home. We was so amazed when they pumped our tank after 30 years, it didn’t need it. (The town pumped all the tanks ) we now live on a farm. Just in case anyone questions what I’m saying. Also your feed prices are very comparable to ours. Costco prices are about the same in some products too. GOD BLESS from West Central Indiana Farmland

Great grocery haul! Do you check the expiration dates? I prep too but I always check dates and buy the ones with the most time on them. It feels good to be prepared for what may happen. I love your storage areas!!

@mmc9828 4 ай бұрын

Our store had whole bean Starbucks coffee on sale. I bought 8 lbs and then discovered they all expire in about 3 weeks. The good news is that we are coffeeholics so they won't go to waste! But normally I do check expiration dates.

@modernhomesteadalaska 4 ай бұрын

I do check dates on things that won’t get used quickly. But honestly on some things it wouldn’t matter here it’s so hard you just take what you can get

Just a tip. When I was farming we also used metal cans but my husband and I would pour bags of feed (2 or 3 different kinds of feed) together ( at same time) so was no need to hand mix. So much easier. I Like your channel, such hard work in the cold!

@modernhomesteadalaska 4 ай бұрын

Thank you so much yes! I (Jessica ) can’t mix it like Aaron so I do one scoop of each out of the bags and toss it around. So smart!

I am really amazed and really in awe at how clean and well stocked all of those stores are. Everything looks fresh and inviting. This is a far cry from how stores here in NC are, which is not nearly as good as in Alaska. I am really amazed.

Hi I am a new subscriber from Australia and we are currently in the summer season. I noticed it said you were in -29c weather 😲🥶🙈OMG I don't think I could last half a day in that weather. find it so fascinating to watch videos from other countries who experience the different climates. I hope you are all ok with all that snow.

These are some of my favorite types of videos. You've inspired me in so many ways throughout my pantry stocking journey. Thank you for sharing! I'm in shock over your shavings prices! We just paid $7.49 for a bale of shavings here in Ohio. I would have thought that with the lumber industry in Alaska, they would be cheaper. Have a great day, friend!

Yeah it’s never fun to buy those! But the straw goes up $69 so it’s to much in winter. Keeping animals in Alaska winter is expensive
