SUGGESTION; Since your farm is expanding to an awesome level, it might be good to get a large marker board for organization (keep in central place of home as there are so many activities to do. Have a 10-15 min family meeting 1st thing in the morning before the chore day starts perhaps after breakfast. Go thru list who doing what today. Create a daily/weekly board of activities that need to be done and who will be doing it. Assignments. In this way, everyone will know what they need to do every day. And an area of check off that the activity is done. At the end of the week, maybe everyone has some kind of award/activity/something nice for everyone or individually, so they don’t dread working on the farm weekly. You could maybe ask everyone to make a wishlist of things they would like/or to do/or to go, etc. Just a thought. Glad Rebekah is feeling better-glad she had some rest days! Love your channel. Love the family. So Awesome!!

Leave the pierced or cut potatoes out and store in kitchen to eat on now. Put the rest in dry, cool area to store. Good call boys, they are already dry. Put a fan on the onions and garlic. They are stacked too high and they will rot.

Justin, you can also blanch in the pillow case. My father in law uses a turkey cooker. He’s does purple hull peas and okra. He puts the contents in the pillow case to blanch and when he pulls it out, the water is clean for the next blanch. He just dumps the contents in the sink to rinse. Then packages and puts in the freezer. This year they are drying the contents and adding them to a dry pillow case to keep in the freezer to easily get the foods like you are. I just wanted to share the quick/bulk blanching idea.

Tip for wounds to prevent infection in the future. Grow calendula (super easy to grow and pretty), harvest the blossoms (keep near the house and just grab them regularly), put that in vodka and wait a few weeks. Strain that to create an amazing tincture for wounds! You can dilute it 4:1 but keep it stored full strength. It is one of the simplest things to take care of wounds I've found. Helps prevent infection and promotes healing. An infected wound becomes a massive problem very quickly. And working on a homestead means many opportunities for wounds. With a few plants on pots in my front yard I saved enough to last all year for my family and even gave some away.

Oh how I can relate to too much beef and not enough freezer space! Had two whole steer customers back out once. We happen to have 3 -21cu foot freezer, but had to get another one shipped over to take the last of the harvest. Ended up with one freezer completely full of just ground meat and had to can about 20# of product that had just started to thaw by the time freezer #4 was delivered. Crazy times and still selling that beef a few pounds at a time, lol.

You could also use ground pork and beef trimmings in venison ring sausage. Go with your 2 oldest and attend hunters safety that will also train them in airsoft safety. You can have the boys be drop off and pickup guides for deer and animal share lease holders. Process and fill coolers inbetween am and pm hunts. Your pasture management has also doubled the wildlife population. Its surprising that the gardens arent being attacked without high fences. Its the same as harvesting beef, just not a stationary target. Would be a great abundance plus utuber hunting camp experience and channel collaborations. The guides get paid for farm work by the farm.

Another time you get a cut dirty, irrigate it with a child's dosing syringe. You can get right in there without touching anything, it doesn't hurt as much as a cotton bud or nailbrush, and it's a whole lot cleaner. Use saline, clean boiled water or diluted iodine if you can bear it.
