Massive Cabbage Harvest ~ Today we add to our backyard grocery haul by harvesting cabbage grown in our raised bed garden ! These cabbage, part of the Brassica family of vegetables, were grown in our Secret Super Soil mix for raised bed gardens and container gardening. It has produced some huge heads of cabbage we are looking forward to fermenting into sauerkraut in upcoming videos. If you would like to know how to plant cabbage or how to grow cabbage, please check out our Gardening (et all) playlists. Today, we will discuss how to and when to harvest your cabbage. We’ll also be stripping the outside cabbage leaves to feed to our backyard chickens and getting them cleaned up for our video on how to make sauerkraut by fermenting it in traditional large ceramic crocks. But first, let’s get these huge cabbage harvested and our backyard garden grocery haul ready to go !

Me…..I don’t like sauerkraut. But my mom loved it and would go to a friends house from church and make it.
Hey there sweet Tina! I found your channel not too long ago and I really enjoy your videos. I followed how to plant my sweet potatoes from you and your husband's video. I have a good feeling about what I will be getting because you guys are so knowledgeable. Thank you so much for sharing all your wisdom with all of us. I'm a beginning gardener just this year and I absolutely love it. I live in Pensacola Florida and it is stinking hot here, but it's worth sweating especially when you bring in harvest from the garden. Your cabbage harvest was amazing! I absolutely love cabbage. Have a nice day and I look forward to the next video. God bless you!
Please taking better care of yourself. You've got some serious sunburn on your face. Don't forget losion. Maybe bigger brim hat would also help. I don't want to find out you you got Sun poisoning, or worse. We all love you and don't want you sick.
With cabbage, beef (chopmeat), or potatoes you can make progies. Yummy. 😋 😋 for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I make a big batch and freeze them in small bunches. That way I have just enough defrosting for a meal. There nice with fried onions, butter or sour cream. Or smothered with tomato sauce, with the beef ones. I'm getting hungry lol, I don't have any left. Boo hoo. I have to make some from scratch, tomorrow. G-D Bless and please protect your skin.
Great video Tina! To summarize, was great to see Mark back on a video again a couple days ago, your garden shots are wonderful, and that is an amazing stash of garlic you have set out to dry behind you. Happy Gardening! -Bob…
I'm anxious to learn from you how to make sauerkraut!!! Thanks. Tell Mark Hey.
Love and Hugs from Sapulpa Oklahoma
Do you ferment all of it? I love cabbage, and can't wait to grow some of my own.
Tina, I was trying to count how many heads you harvested, but I lost track! I am looking forward to your making kraut log.
Awesome Haul well done!
I don't know why my gift hasn't shown up yet 😱.
Have a great weekend!

That's a nice crop of cabbage. I enjoy boiled cabbage soaked in butter. Sauer kruat is another favorite too.
That's a real nice harvest! I'll be waiting for the next video!!
nice cabbage harvest looking forward to seeing how you make sour kraut I love to eat the stuff yummy
That's the biggest cabbage I've ever seen!! Good job on getting it done!!
Bless your heart, I certainly can empathize with you. I actually cut the side and tip f my finger off with a hatchet splitting kindling. Your homemake sauerkraut video is the first one I watched because I wanted to learn how. Hugs and Love
Good looking heads of cabbage!
wow those look soo healthy. God bless.
Can’t wait to see how you ferment your cabbage! Thanks!!!
Very nice haul of cabbages! How do you keep cabbage worms off? Love your channel!
Impressive cabbage! I am looking forward to you sauerkraut videos.
We love sauerkraut too. We also cut some up and freeze it for cooked cabbage
That is a nice harvest ! I do the cooking around here except for grilling but there's one thing David makes and boy is it delicious …He makes baby back ribs and kraut over a pile of creamy mashed potatoes , I love it !
Even though we are easily a month plus behind you, we planted 6 spindley looking, betcha they wont make it, cabbage plants, that are now about softball size!! It will be great to be on the reaping side of things. Pea's are plumping up, beans are loaded, onions are bulbing, and garlic is about a week out. Still seems, some days, that we just planted everything!!!
Nice haul.
TYFS Stay Safe and Well

That's a lot of cabbage. Thanks for sharing
Beautiful cabbage! What a feeling of accomplishment. Should make some fine sauerkraut. Yum
I enjoyed watching the cabbage patch kid play in her garden.
What kind if cabbage did you plant? We have done z couple os small garden beds this year. And we tried the bucket tomatoes…. amazing! Thank you for the inspiration to do all this. 😊😊
I love watching backyard garden hauls sooo much better than people posting grocery store hauls from Aldi's..lol.. Blessings
Nice harvest of cabbage!!
Mmmm!! Just feed me,, kraut and roast. OM goodness my belly is growling…
Love cabbage. I make my brother sauerkraut steamed in beer he craves it made like that. No you don’t taste the beer
Love sauerkraut
Nice cabbage haul. We got ours out late because of all the crazy weather here in Southeast Tennessee. Our heads were not very big at all but my wife, Lisa, still made some krout and we had some slaw. Next year will be different. Tell Mark I will be sending him an e-mail soon asking him some questions about soil. You're doing a good job Tina.
Your cabbages look beautiful! That’s gonna be a lot of wonderful sauerkraut. I love sauerkraut. There is only one brand I will buy. The others are just not good. I’ve never made my own but would like to try it sometime. Eagerly awaiting your video on how to make it. Blessings, Love & Hugs from Vicki in Ft. Worth, Texas 🇨🇱🇺🇸👍❤️🥰🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Outstanding! It would be so helpful if you could tell us what time to plant it, how to feed it and keep away the dreaded cabbage loopers and worms. Is spring time planting better than fall?
I love cabbage. Coleslaw,fried,kraut and mixed with other stir fry veggies..
Beautiful harvest as always!!! Can't wait to see the sauerkraut video!
Beautiful produce.
I’m looking forward to seeing how you make sauerkraut. I love watching you harvest your veggies.
Love sauerkraut being Polish, Russian and German. So good. Great haul you got. Be careful please.
I was wondering when do you guys start your cole crop? Do you start from seed or buy transplants?
I pulled my cabbage to soon I thought it was hot and out of 12 I got 2 small heads someone told me I needed to pull it so you cant take advice from everyone😒 but you hate to keep asking the same ppl lots of questions b cuz they either stop answering or give you short answers that you have no idea what they mean lol. But I'm new to gardening and I love it made a lot of mistakes cant really tell if my stuff is diseased or not and I've pulled pots of stuff and trashed all the container mix that I can tell you I spend a lot of money to get 5 cucumbers 2 cabbages a few potatoes the only thing that make it worth it is I really like watching something grow from seed. I'm the only one that eat tomatoes and I have 10 tomato plants lol so I give away more then we eat but its cost more then I can afford to keep doing if I dont figure it out lol. You guys have been a great help so thank you very much for your time.
Wow!! I wish I could grow beautiful cabbage like that. Awesome harvest.😊😊
That is some awesome looking cabbage harvest! They are big heads so I know they will make lots of yummy meals and the sauerkraut! Big hugs 🤗
I like to stuff cabbage leaves with corn beef hash
