Isn’t it great to see the kids outdoors in the sunshine and fresh air and also helping Mom, instead of being glued to the tv or internet?

I've been cooking everyday for 50 years and canning for 12.... yet I can always learn something from your videos, RuthAnn. It's always fun to see your kids and your interactions with them as you guide them in learning a healthy lifestyle. This is what being a homemaker should look like. All things home - caring for family, and keeping them healthy included teaching them how to be kind and good workers, growing and preserving food, keeping a household, etc. Women had the best job in the world before they decided to put on pants and compete in the workplace with men. By the way, I have lived this lifestyle and don't regret a day of it-enjoyed every moment. No time to be bored!! Yes, God is good! And my carrots turned out beautiful. Thank you.

When I plant my pelleted carrot seed I use lime and till that I’m first. I use organic lime. Since I was a market gardener I sold carrots all summer long and they asked me why mine were never bitter. So I told them I sweetened the soil with pelleted lime did that for over 50 years of market gardening and still to this day. My parents were the first subscribers or the little magazine called organic gardener. And that what they told us to do. I also do that for every root veggie

GOD is good, all the time!!

Love watching your kids getting into this! They’ll have skills others won’t have! ❤

LOVE the slow-mo shot of the kids pulling up giant bunches of those carrots! Yum yum! God is Good all of the time ❤

The donkey's are so sweet.

God literally brought me to your channel today because I had no idea how to do this

I found your channel about a week ago and have been watching so many of your videos. I would love to get some of your zinnia seeds if you do this yearly. I just gave my grandchildren large envelopes of zinnia seeds for Easter. I did a garden theme for them this year for their baskets. I home school them and am doing my best to raise them a lot like you do. Although on a much smaller scale. We no longer have a farm or land. We only have an acre but I do what I can with what we have. Anyway back to the point. Every year I have them grow something new and care for it. This year is zinnias. Yours are gorgeous and nice and tall. I've not grown them before and I'm so excited to see this video. I didn't know you could save the seeds like marigolds! Or the climate control for the seeds. That helps a lot! Thank you!

Your family is amazing! God bless you and your family! We love your videos! Everyone of them is very special and amazing! Thank you for all of them!

I always adore watching the children snack on the veggies and interacting with the animals 🥰

🥰 OHHH MY HEART!! Harrison doing his demo on how to strong-arm a carrot top! ❤❤❤

Max is your animal lover. He always makes me smile with how sweet and gentle he is.

Thank you RuthAnn for all the great videos. I love that your kids all asked to help you and do chores. Most kids now don't know what that is. Love seeing the animals on the farm and all the great recipes you teach us to cook. I am a new canner and lover the fact that you water bath alot. God Bless

Excellent work!

Another great video with concise instructions and explanations. Thank you for blessing us with your knowledge. The bonus video of the piglets was precious!💗

You always have such a loving teaching tone,Thank you! I was so thrilled to see you using a canner just like mine 😊 I use so much less propane with the peatcock. One I close it there is no steam released an I can turn my flame to its lowest setting. It holds proper pressure the whole time. ...I hope I'm doing it correctly, my dry beans sealed. Oh one more thing.. we love your BBQ bean recipe 😋

Thank you for taking time to do this. I have been water bath canning for decades, only pressure canning 2 years. My first year i followed a recipe for carrots and they were mush. Thanks for always including your details. I very much appreciate it and all your videos.

Little boys on the farm! So cute!

Such Beautiful carrots. And piglets are adorable.

I’m going to can carrots for the first time. I’ve pickled the little ones & blanched & frozen some but now want the convenience of canning. Thanks for sharing! Blessings to everyone 🤗💕🇨🇦

My favorite show without a doubt!!❤

Absolutely adorable 🥰 Lil piglets ✌🏼🤍🙏🏼ThankYou

You are so inspiring!

Love your videos, your children and your livestock! Thank you for sharing all that good information with us and God bless you and your family!

I love the convenience of canned carrots too. I add them to lots of different things. The piggies are darling !! Blessings on you

Our carrots almost never make it inside because the kids eat them eat them straight out of the garden 😂. “Your playing more than you are working.” Can’t tell you how often we tell our kids that 😂 God bless you guys!

I'm glad I found this about carrots. I just ordered a bushel of them to pick up Saturday. Along with 50 lb of potatoes. I saw how you did potatoes the other day. That looked pretty easy. I hope I can do it as easy as you made it look on the potatoes😊

Parsnips are wonderful, too, and can overwinter in the ground. They get sweeter in the cold. Also white beets ( not cow feed beets ) can be eaten raw or cooked.

Very good angle shots in your videos 👏 Blessings ❤️

The kids are so cute. I tried canning carrots in 2021 but they came out like mush. I think the recipe I used you boiled them for 5 minutes, jarred them and canned for 30 minutes for pints. I will try it your way because it sure is convenient to have them jarred up.

Your carrots are so pretty in your jars!

OMGOODNESS Kendrick and Harrison are such good harvesters. What Fantastic energy. Ruth Anne you inspire me every time I watch your videos. And little Mr Harrison in the clip of showing how he does it… perfect. 🤗 the piglets are adorable. Do you guys process and eat pork ? I have eaten fresh pork once in my 57 yrs and it was very different from store bought. Absolutely delicious. ❤

I love the way you say donkeys! You're accent is so cute!

The part where your son shows how to remove the top of the carrot. 😂 A-dorable! Way to go in the path of teaching!

You are definitely a canning Wizard

I love carrots 🥕

Love your videos, keep up the excellent work Momma! Do you think if you added those zinc tablets from your green bean video, would it have better color retention?

My MoM was always eat your Carrots 🥕 for good eyes site. But as a Child I loved Pickle Beets, I wish I knew what you do & how to do it also 8-29-2023❤

That's what is wrong with the carrots in the stores! I keep telling people that the carrots I used to eat raw as a kid were kind of sweet but today they are kind of bitter! It makes sense because the demand for carrots is higher these days because of population so I bet they don't give them enough time in the ground and therefore no frost for them which makes them sweeter. I am 73 so it was a lot of years ago 😊

Love your videis, I am new to your channel and have learned so much. Can you add a clove of garlic to the beans before canning? Just for extra flavour.

Hi totally appreciate watching your videos❤ been canning for yrs ,my question is why do liquids to vinegary when canning vegetables please and thank you ❤❤❤

I tried canning some of our carrots. Since they turned out so well, I will wait until a frost and get all of the rest canned for winter. We are in New Brunswick, Canada. THANK YOU - love your channel and excellent advice.

Why do you have donkeys? What purpose do they serve? LOVE your channel, Ruth Ann!!!!!❤

You should try dry canning these like you do your potatoes. They are amazing!! You'll never add water again. I dry can my green beans also .... SO GOOD!!

As someone with almost no experience in canning, why was a pressure canner your choice for these carrots rather than a water bath? Also, could I apply the exact same recipe but do water bath canning, instead? Thank you for taking the time to read and answer. You help to make us better. ❤️

Do you have any videos of preparing and planting the garden? Or garden tours?

Great video Ruth. What a wonderful harvest. My first successful carrot harvest last year. Did orange,yellow and purple carrots. So pretty in the jar. Questions? What is the breed of you new pigs?

Agree peel the carrots 🥕🥕🥕🥕❤

I found a pressure canner just like yours. I was going to replace the valve but you use yours an im sure this canner has not been used as much as yours. Ill give it a try.

Thank you for the carrot utube. I am wanting to process a mess and found this older post. It's easier than I was thinking it would be. What kind of pig did you raise here?

❤

How does this canner work not using the weight? do you have to constantly adjust he heat to keep it at the 10# mark?

I do not have a water bath canner. Can I pressure can pickled carrots with a brine, vinegar solution?

Wher3 can we find the recipe for the monkey bread that you rolled the dough and cut in squares, layered them in 13” by 9” pan?

I LOVE your channel! I'd like to ask, where did you get your potato rack that is in your cold room/storage?

What are your thoughts on dry pack canning carrots?

You are using an old school petcock canner like I use. Much prefer it to the newer "weighted gauge" type.

My carrots are never sweet. Now I know why. I will plant again as I quit planting them years ago. They were about the only failures in my garden.

I canned carrots and after processing a few of the carrots are above the water is this normal and will it hurt anything all jars sealed.

Try getting kids now days snacking on just plain carrots. This shows mainly start out this way goes a long way in life. I don't understand why small jars for the size of your family. I would use this size just for myself. Enjoy watching you in your daily duty and th children helping out, most younger ones in our world woul be arguing with each other. My most part is the cooking style and the recipe of your meals 😊 Yasuha bless you and your family.

Do you have to do pressure, or can you do water canning for carrots?

So how long are you leaving them planted? Spring to frost? That would be April to Nov-dec for me. I don’t think the voles will leave one carrot to harvest. I thought the roots would get really Harry with little white roots coming off if left so long. I want mine a good size like this.

I saw that you canned potatoes without water, do you think you could do the same with carrots? My canned carrots were a little too soft and I'm wondering if not using water would make for a firmer carrot.

Love your videos! Did you mean to say to can pints for 20 minutes? My carrots are always too soft when I can them and my family doesn’t like them. I’m wondering if canning the pints for 25 minutes is making them too soft?

So do you plant them in February and then harvest in December? I’m new to carrots !!

Do you not dry pack cattots?

Is it video distortion or did the carrots change shape?

Can you cut the carrot in larger pieces?

What do you use the donkeys for?

Ruthann, do you ever water bath can your vegetables?

What little boys don't like to dig in the dirt. 😊

Is there a reason to use hot water in the jars versus starting with cold water? Thanks!

I have well water that sometimes leaves a white (calcium) and red (iron) film on my shower. Do you think it is safe to can with or should I use bought (bottled) water?

What is the method if I don't have a pressure cooker?

I don't have a presure canner. Can it be done otherwise? Like waterbath canning?

Is there a similar secret to keeping carrots color as there is for green beans?

Do you find the carrots mushy when canned?

❤😂😂

The one time I tried canning carrots they came out REALLY soft. What did I do wrong? They were grocery store carrots so maybe that’s part of it ??

Have you ever water bathed the carrots?

Can carrots be dry canned like potatoes?

How come you don’t take the air out of the can?

Just wondering why you keep donkeys? What is their purpose on the homestea?

what will poppie do ?? protecting her baby piglets ?

I peel my carrots because the skin tastes bitter to me.

Well done you add the recipe to join KHAL Page I think this recipe will be a big hit there 😍😍😍😍 🙂🙂🙂
