Modern homesteading during the Corona Quarantine

In this episode, I share my plans for setting up a gravity feed tank for our off grid laundry system and show another update on the progression of our greenhouse. After investing so much time in clearing land for garden space and building our new greenhouse and workshop, it’s exciting to see our plans of having a self sustainable off grid homestead come together.

Q: What video editing software do I use? A: Presently, all I use is Windows Live Movie maker but I’m considering trying imovie, Adobe Elements or SONY VEGAS PRO.
Q: How do you get your water? Did you dig a well? A: Presently, I haul water to the NY cabin but at the NH cabin, I drop a kettle into an old well that was dug by hand by the settlers in the 1700’s.
Q:What is your favorite brand of cast iron cookware? A: I prefer using vintage cast iron. My favorites are BSR and Griswold. If I had to buy new I would buy a Lodge Brand. I plan to purchase this dutch oven in the future:

****** About Living Traditions Homestead ******

Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.

We put out 3 new videos every week! Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we transition from city dwellers to full time homesteaders!

Water glassing is a long-standing historical method that is very easy and very effective! While there are several different water glassing mediums (the technical modern one being sodium silicate), here Carolyn shows you how to use the cheap and readily available hydrated lime (also known as pickling lime and slacked lime) to easily store your eggs for up to 2 years without refrigeration!

This is a historical food preservation method that has been used for centuries to keep eggs fresh.

You can find pickling lime here: https://amzn.to/2UFvHmG
