Sorry about the background noise. We have a neighbor with mental health issues and she kept screaming at wild turkeys in her yard, so I put on some hymns and she went inside. Life can be challenging, but hymns have never failed me in any way - hymns are prayers set to music!
So in this video we have an update from videos I posted a few months back. The celery video was done I believe in January, so in about 4 months we now have harvestable celery out there that will keep producing forever or until I decide to pull the whole thing. I like to plant the base of celery I get from the store and plant it ALL around my property. It just grows, doesn't harm anything, if animals eat it no harm done - and I have more celery than I could ever dream of using. Truly - it grows incredibly well if you keep the roots moist.
My preference with celery is the leaves, the leaves are packed with flavor and vitamins and most people just throw those away. Dry them and they last forever, you can even just leave them on a paper towels or pop in your dehydrator. Powdered, celery can be used like curing salt - it's what our ancestors have done for centuries. It contains natural nitrates/nitrites so having an ample supply of celery allows you to cure meats for shelf stable foods.
I could go on and on with celery!!! With the onions, you can see how absolutely easy it is to pop a growing onion from the store, into the ground, water, and let it grow and it produces endless amounts of green onion tops for you. SO good too, the tops literally drip with juice as you take them in the house. If I have too many, I dehydrate them and store for later.
If you have any questions, please drop them in the comments. As always I am not doing this for income, I'm doing this to help others learn and prepare a little to be self sufficient. Now that the weather is better we will be putting videos out on outdoor things - so stay tuned. I have so much to share but doing all this video filming and editing and uploading is not easy for me or my daughter who helps, so we'll do as many as we can to catch up now.
Thanks for watching - please share so others can learn too!
Enjoy!
