****** 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 new videos every week! We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

We have never found the skins on persimmons to have the astringent quality unless they were unripe when eaten. They essentially are mush in a loose skin when fully ripened.
I enjoy your Channel. I wonder if you pick Paw Paw fruits?
Thanks for sharing!
Long time viewer and subscriber. I love your channel and when it's on my daily list, I always watch it first. The ending is always special to me and I make sure to watch to the very end. Just so you know, I have an even greater respect for you in the past week .Thanks for taking the time to express your concerns recently. There are many of us (at least 830,000 subscribers) that see reality, hear reality and focus on old fashioned, positive solutions instead of dwelling on blaming others, negativity and denial. Your channel is inspirational. Thank you for sharing and caring enough to open a few eyes around here. God bless

I wonder if some cloth like old sheets could be draped under the limbs for the persimmons to fall onto. But high enough that deer can't reach.
Back home lived out of country. My brothers and sisters hunted wild foods wild leeks (ramsons) raseberries, blackberries, puffball-(mushroom) usually grow in the field with tall grass and we notice mushroom grow in the cow field nice favors. it is white top and brown under neither just like in the store brought.From Canada.
You probably already know about this having lived in Arizona, but prickly pear cactus paddles and it's cactus fruit are also edible.
What a fun video. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
Here in Maine we call those "blueberries" huckleberries. Very seedy but make a delicious pie.
HINT: Use your wild blueberries to make tea. 😊
I think your blueberries are what we probably call huckleberries in Arkansas
I’m really surprised at all of your pine trees. What elevation are you at there in Ava? I think we’re at about 14ft in Mansfield. I’m still learning my trees but I haven’t seen many pines.
Do you have to worry about the ticks still?
Lost my gf that had a piece of wooded area, she & i would go "pickin". Would take icecream buckets & thread either a belt or rope (around our waists) thru handle so our hands were free to pick. Wild blackberries were our favorite. Not enough to make a big mess of jam, but enough that we would have several batches for freezing & desserts, either small cobbler or over a shortcake or with icecream.
Yes i miss the "pickin" & corn crops, but its a bigger loss of a kindred personality
I was more interested in the rock cliffs. Would love to see more of the rock formations on your property. I believe the spiders are funnel web weavers.
You could try a pole with an apple picker on the end of it. I have a friend that put a small basket on the end of a fishing Pole and uses it to reach blackberries that are up high. It might give you enough reach to get more persimmons.
Loved it!!
❤If you pick up fruit off of the ground it has to be washed with hot hot water to kill ecoli from animal feces, deer, raccoon, etc droppings. I dont pick up from the ground anymore…there were babies that died from ecoli from organic applesauce…the pickers got some from the ground and somehow it wasn't raised to a high enough temp to kill the ecoli❤Lord Jesus Christ come quickly ❤
We call them huckleberrys here in Alabama
Hey I just wanted to let you guys know. Missouri conservation sells a few books on missouri wild edible and a really good one for missouri mushrooms!
😊
I heard somewhere that you can put the persimmons in the freezer overnight and they will improve. Have you tried that?
I enjoyed seeing the beautiful wooded areas.
The spider webs are called gossamer and I experienced them everywhere one evening, so they were all species of spiders. Magical.
the spider is actually pretty. 🙂 i think she is orb weaver or cat-faced spider. 🙂 <3 and the cows are so cute and funny! 😀
Thank you for sharing and happy with your trip ❤❤❤
A great day in the woods. Thanks for taking us with you. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.
I put 30 dried hawthorn berries in a bottle of port and leave it for a month then have a swig every day
A couple of fruit picking poles might be handy to add to your foraging tool kit. =)
Those are NOT wild blueberries. Lol
Those are huckleberries. They grow in arkansas and oklahoma too. If you have a wet fall they'll have more juice. The juice is used to make jelly and wine. They are a cousin to blueberries. 🙂
Edit: These are not the same as garden huckleberries that are sold in some of the seed catalogs.
Maybe you could do some video's on making tinctures with different medicinal plants. I heard you mention black walnut. Great long lasting pantry item. Loved your wild edible search. You know little by little it does add up. It can get you by for sure in a pinch or the long run either way. Great stuff thanks.
I have two Fuyu persimmon trees that you can eat like apples.
You need an apple picking rod with net to pick those Persimmons . Also, we used to carry a tarp with us when foraging. We cut a slot in it to the center so it would slip around a tree/bush trunk then we could shake the tree/bush and the ripe fruit/nuts would be caught on the tarp. Love your videos!
Love your foraging videos!
