Your family is such a blessing to me. I AM A 81 YEAR old great grandmother. al of your efforts remind me of special times with my family.

Awwww.. Jessica!! You are TALENTED, INSPIRING, HARD WORKING ...ECT...The true definition of a Proverbs 31 Woman!!

I follow you on Instagram, but nothing warms my heart more than these Sunday Video’s of yours. They make me smile, laugh, (like watching Levi running after the Chicken) they make me tear up of joy, when I see what a beautiful mommy and wife you are, they’re so educational, and I have lost my fear of Canning. Thank you! God bless you and your beautiful family!

The most organised mother with a large family on the Internet. My goodness. Squash powder such a brilliant idea.

I am from Bundaberg Australia happy to see Adam loves our Ginger Beer. Bundaberg is pronounced Bun (like a bread bun) da berg (like iceberg)

So good to see little ones helping learning that there is a purpose for everything and how to feed yourself. Everone should respect animals and see where food comes from. Very good learning, not always a fun process but important.

I sure do love seeing those kids helping with the work that needs to be done. Excellent job!

Such a hardworking mom. Even when you're sick, cooking nourishing meals for everyone.

Jessica, you look so good. Baby is growing. Can't wait to meet it. This video was full of great things. Love your sweet family. Be blessed my friend.

You’re my version of Wonder Woman!! Your positive attitude, knowledge and family first lifestyle is refreshing.

Just wanted to say thank you. Our family is expecting baby #5 in December. Big families now days get a lot of judgment from the community, but seeing others do it and thrive is a great calming tool. We just closed my wife’s business yesterday so she can stay home with the kiddos. With reality setting in very quickly, it was a relief to watch your video as a reminder that this all a good thing. Thank you again.

what a virtuous woman you are. commenting on my husbands account btw, im in zimbabwe and i have been watching you for a few years now, i love your lifestyle and i watched how you started out so inspiring, so hardworking, what a wonderful family you have, a lovely way to live, i also home school but not yet on our own piece of land to homestead, keep it up, cant wait to see more of your journey, love from Africa!

Such a peaceful video. The time seems to have flown by with the new baby due so soon. All your children are growing so fast, so much taller each Fall. Thank you for sharing your life and wisdom and mostly for just being a blessing to all.

Hello Jessica 🌟 I always look forward to Sunday’s when your video comes out 🎉❤ Your voice is sooooo calming. You teach this young 64 year old a LOT. I love your beautiful family, and cannot wait for the arrival of baby #8 ❤ I am always learning so many things from you 😊 You have helped me make big changes in our lives 🌹 Blessings to you and your lovely family 🌷🌟✨

Hi Jessica, I think you, your family, and homestead are AMAZING. When I am under too much stress with my dissertation, I just turn on your channel and have a mental break. You have such a calming voice, and it is relaxing to listen to how you prepare meals and take care of your family. Once the children are older, then maybe you would consider looking into recording audio books (children and Christian based novels). You have such a beautiful soul and are such a loving mom for others to learn, be inspired, and mirror. God bless you, your family, animals, homestead, and channel. Blessings...

Jessica, you and your husband are raising your children in so many praiseworthy ways. They know the value of hard work, sharing and contributing, and how to be caring , loving people. You've been blessed as loving parents should be. Thank you for your videos.

Your freeze dried squash looked like honeycomb, I enjoy watching all that you do to feed your family and your children are a credit to you

I hope everyone gets well soon, your daughter looks so elegant twirling that ribbon 🤗

I look so forward to your videos! One of the things I enjoy most is seeing how you use every scrap of food in some way - it’s really changed how I manage my own kitchen! I challenge myself to not throw anything away and have gotten very good at using bits of leftover fruits and veggies in the dehydrator and turning them into powders…which really increase the nutrition of the meals I make. Glad you’re all feeling better! 😊❤️

Those fritters look delicious 😋!

Jessica love watching your video's, you have a way of motivating other's like myself to persevere foods and how you get all your children helping one another. Good job kid's you all are so wonderful keep on smiling, loving and helping your awesome mommy. God Bless you all

I just love your videos Jessica! You make my heart happy reminiscing about my children's younger days and all the cooking and baking. Your husband and family are so beautiful together. I love how they all help you, especially the older boys and girls. Great ideas before the baby is born to free your time to enjoy and not fret. Thx for sharing, especially Adam's Grandpa's fruit tree farm. Absolutely beautiful trees!

Love all that collagen in the "jelly" in the broth. Love seeing the family trips and the cooking/preserving.

What a beautiful apple pie!!

Another great video with you & your beautiful family. You work very hard. It's tough to find the energy to do a lot when you're pregnant so I really admire you!❤️

I love watching your children grow and the talent you have!

Wonderful family day out visiting Adam’s family farm. Elizabeth’s apple pie looked so professional. I love chicken broth for when I have a cold, I often add turmeric for goodness but I also love the flavour. Hope everyone is feeling well again. I so enjoyed this blog, seeing the children laughing and the final shot of dad and Bub sleeping. Have never made tomato paste but will give it a try. I recognised the Bundaberg brand of ginger ale. Bundaberg is small coastal town in Queensland Australia. It was one of the main producers of sugarcane in the state. But became famous for its rum and ginger ale. Take care and blessings to everyone.

You can also just make your own brown sugar by adding molasses to sugar. It’s about 1 tablespoon molasses to a cup of sugar from light brown sugar and you can add more molasses for darker brown sugar.

I am just more amazed with every video! Your wealth of knowledge is incredible… you could easily teach “Family Life” or “Homesteading” and you definitely do to your followers! Literally, I learn something new every week and so appreciate your time and effort that goes into sharing each week with us! Much love from Missouri!♥️🇺🇸

My husband was from apple country in the hills of North Carolina. Beautiful country and apples. Love seeing David mentoring Levi.

You’re such a good mom, such great parents - love seeing your kids play football so innocently and not attached to iPhones! Beautiful family ❤ Feel better soon .

I always enjoy seeing how you’re being industrious and taking care of your family. I hope everyone is feeling better. There’s nothing like chicken soup when you’re feeling bad.

As an Australian Bundaberg ginger beer is my favourite Australian drink. It is actually pronounced bun-da-berg, bun as it hotdog bun and is named after the town it originated from and where it is still manufacture and all the ginger is grown.

I completely understand forgetting an apron, and having regular spot cleaning of my dresses. It just proves that we cook regularly, and feed our families well. 👪

Oh my Goodness Jessica a great video and finish. Love it . We had a great week. Got to share a day with 4 grandchildren and my GG daughter's 4BD party. All in the same day. So thankful and feeling so blessed that God's allowing me this time and memories. Back in days with my husband we used the same process with tomatoes and berries. I still have it all sitting on top of cabinets. T u for sharing pics of Adam's GD FARM and pics of Adam with children. So excited about your new baby. I got 2 nights wuth my babies and enjoyed so much. Pray for me I will be having Rt knee surgery on 19. And this week makes a year since my 16 year old G. Son Jaden went to see Jesus. Pray for his daddy mommy and brother. Healing. God's blessings upon you and yours!!!

Yay! Not sure why but I got excited seeing Adam in a video. I think its because you guys are all together and fell complete in this vid 😆 So fun. Such a beautiful family you have !

It’s too bad Adam's grandpa wasn’t able to leave the farm to the family. What a great place and how nice of the current owner to share. Those fritters look amazing!!

I'm making vegetable beef soup today. We are having a soup potluck after church tonight. I love being able to use the things that I had canned from the garden and the stuff I saved in the freezer. I even got to add my own fresh garlic that I grew for the first time. It smells so good.

Give the dog some of that squash powder on his food in puree form. He is absolutely gorgeous! I love every time you show him! 🐾💖🙏

Apple fritters are the best thing in life when they're warm🥰💕

That’s what I did wrong! I never made Tomato Sauce before. My tomatoes did so well this past summer so I combined my beans, squash and made Garden Tomato Sauce. It’s delicious, but watery. I didn’t cook it down enough…..Now I know! I got to excited. The other thing I did was used the emolument blender and canned 4 Quarts. BOOM!! Two quarts blew their tops!!! No jars broke, but the lids and bands blew off! I was told NEVER blend and immediately pressure can because of the air bubbles made in sauces. I need to blend and stir for a few hours so those air bubbles get released. Then pressure can. The canner and jars cleaned up nicely bc I did it right away when done, but man….lessons learned! I really love to learn even when things don’t go right. I didn’t harm anyone, not even me. But TWO big lessons learned this past canning season.

A friend of my daughter allowed us to pick apples off their tree when they harvested what they wanted. We processed over 60 qts of applesauce. It was a huge blessing for our families as we worked on the processing with 4 generations working ❤️ together. I love how you encourage people to use every scrap!!! God bless!

I just subbed today, really enjoy your channel i am older now kids grown etc, i just love watching your videos, I an Indiana been here one year, a transplant from the deep South. Your voice is soothing and perfect for narrating . Two thumbs up .

How sweet! Nothing like seeing your baby sleeping by his daddy. The best pictures. And your daughter was doing a wonderful dance there. I'm so happy everybody's better.

Tell Adam on of your views lives a few hours from the factory in Australia where his ginger beer is made. Love watching you videos and your family. Your a inspiration 😊❤

I was glad to see you useing your mill. I have had one for some where between 35 and 40 years still in the box it came in and never knew how to use it so thank you.!! Maybe this year i will finaly take it out of the box and use it!!

Thank you dear heart♥️‼️REALLY fun video as well as SO dang interesting!!! You’re such a devoted partner and parent! ♥️‼️🕉☮️🙋‍♀️🎃‼️

Blessings to you and your lovely homestead! Love watching how organised you are. Keep it up!

Happy Sunday Funday!!!! Always a blessing to see your upload Jessica. God Bless you and your family!!!! ALWAYS IN MY PRAYERS!!!

I admire your energy and intelligence and priorities ❤️ you are wonder woman !

omg I got such a kick out of seeing Bundaberg ginger beer in your fridge!! It is made in my state in Australia :) we pronounce the 'bun' sound like a cinnamon bun by the way, it's a sweet little country town a few hours from where I live which has a lovely mixture of farm life and the beach!

You are such a delightfully calming joy to end my day. Thank you for sharing what you love. ❤

💚 So much L💗VE to you All! May you all be feeling better. Love the variety of all that you share. 💚

Grapeseed oil also has a high burn temp and it’s very light; you can’t taste it in your cooking. It is also a healthy oil. I use it when I’m frying because the burn temp is one of the highest around. I thought you might like to know this… 😊

Thank you for making this video and the other videos you make. You show things that I've wanted to do for many years but did not know how to do, never having seen them done (books alone help but are not enough). With what you show in your videos, I feel better able to take action and begin doing these things. Thank you so much!

Happy everyone is feeling better! Love watching you cook & preserve! Learning so much! Blessings to you & your family!❤🙌❤

Always finding your videos so fascinating! You and your baby bump look well!

Every time I watch one of your weekly video of preserving foods, it reminds me of stuff I have in the freezer to process. What a lovely trip to the apple orchids. And those squashes, yum. Little Levi chasing that chicken... good boy. Well, who would have known that the broth would be used so quickly. Wow. That last view of Ben and Adam...awwwww. They were not feeling good. Hugs to everyone.

The apple pie Elizabeth made was beautiful! I’m sure it was delicious too!

I love listening to you talk us through all the tasks you get through while I'm in my own kitchen working through my own tasks, it really helps me keep going, a blessing, thank you:)

Beautiful crop of apples and winter squash! beautiful apple pie, blessings from VA ❤️

So happy to see whole families do things together , my 4 children dad never had anything to do with them still doesn’t I’m proud of yall❤

Seeing your man with your baby and being happy just reminds you that you're a goddess who grew humans from your love with your guy, your main squeeze, and that whatever changes your body goes through to make those babies are loved and appreciated by your love. You know that he loves you, your family, and the changes in your body that created that life. It makes me want to cry. Sometimes as women, we worry that our man might think the results of creating life might be unattractive but seeing them so happy with our children reminds us that they still think we're amazing and our "war wounds and scars" make us more beautiful💕

Yum! Happy family time! Thanks for sharing!

Watching at 3:30am cause I'm wide awake so why not lol. Have a lovely week.

I really enjoy the way you talk over the cooking and projects you do. It really makes your KZfaq station go very smoothly. I find that celery and also celery salt adds a lot of flavor to soups.I enjoy your station very much. I have nine children, only one left at home. I still am very busy.❤️🙏

I'm so excited to preserve our pumpkins this way!!

Oh my gosh Elizabeth that pie is absolutely beautiful! Bet that did not last long 😊

That was so peaceful, soothing and educational. Thank you.

Great video Jessica. Loved seeing the apple orchard.

Thank you Jessica!

I just love watching your grace and patience!

This past week made strawberry applesauce and turned some into fruit leather in a regular dehydrator. Kids were nuts for it.

Your videos are so lovely. A weekly treat 💕. Thank you so much!

What a great video. Sorry to hear you were sick but happy you’re all on the mend now.

Beautiful background noise! 😊 That simple soup looked wonderful. So kind of the new orchard owner to welcome your family ❤ Praying blessings for your family also

Thanks for sharing your week with us. The orchard visit was amazing; apples and squash-yum. You actually gave me a great idea for powdered tomato and squash. I fired up my dehydrator and made my little batches. So happy to put them in my pantry. Have a great week and take care of yourself and baby.

Free food is always great! What a nice man to let you take what you can. I enjoy watching you and your family.

Another great video! I think it's because you do it for the whole week, there are great ideas for everyone!

Glad you are all feeling better 💕🇨🇦

Squash powder! How fascinating! Such a convenient way to store a bulky vegetable.

I have that identical food mill. I picked it up at an estate sale. I too absolutely love it. Efficient, easy to clean. It's such a great tool!

The mount for your tomato mill is amazing idea. Old kitchen stuff is really durable my new favorite is my immersion blender. I cook veggies then immersion blend them and fold them into almost everything.

Thank you Jessica. Hope you are all feeling better very soon. Love your ideas and appreciate that you are willing to share them.

I just love all your videos! You are truly amazing! Your Sharing is such a blessing! Thank you!

Hello Jessica, I love how your family finds joy and fun with the little things in life. I found when my two daughters were young, being outside in nature was time well spent. That was all the cost was, our time and well worth it. My girls would bring their batons, balls and bats, jump ropes, and blankets to lay on and watch the shapes the clouds make. I know my grandsons love the outdoors to but they still spend so much time indoors playing video games, etc. Take care and thank you for sharing your family with us.

Besides church, your videos are just another pleasant thing about Sunday here in my household!!

Loved your video - as always. I had to laugh at seeing our Aussie Bundaberg Ginger Beer in your storage fridge. Blessings on you and your family.

I am fairly new. I wish you were feeling well enough to do a video in the week. I'm am a mother of four middle aged MEN SO THERE IS NO Hate here. So Glad I found your channel.

I amazed with that chart of chores, I'm an absolute idiot when it comes to planning!!! What a wonderful gift!

I will have to try the dehydrating the squash purée. I have been budgeting for a freeze dryer but have had several unexpected house repairs so eventually but have been loving my husband’s 30 year old ronco dehydrator.

Thanks for the idea to freeze dry winter squash puree; I previously froze it.

Beautiful video so nice that Adam can come back and enjoy his Grandfathers home each year that is really special. Your teaching me alot about squash and how to utilize it, we've never really eaten here in our home neither of our parents ever ate or served it. Thank you for sharing. Anna In Ohio

I always enjoy your videos, your voice is so calming. GOD bless you!

You are so smart with using all your food up I admire how you run your home God shines a light on you and your family I'm from Arkansas and we have long growing season I want to grow more and preserve more

Glad to hear you’re all feeling better! I saw that on IG and have been wondering how you all are doing 🙏🏻 Powdering the squash was a great idea. How you keep up this pace getting this far into your pregnancy amazes me 👏🏻

You have a wonderful family. Thank you for sharing your cooking knowledge and your family wisdom. It is fun to watch the children grow into wonderful young adults.

Your family is a delight. Thank you.

I am so excited when I see you post. Omg I love the apple fritters. Yum. Thank you from fort myers Florida. Where I am still in recovery from hurricane ian.

I just love your videos. Those fritters looked so good. There is nothing better than a wonderfully hot fruit fritter. I grew up with fruit fritters. They were made with whatever fruit was available. Thank you for sharing your days with us. God Bless your Family.
