I absolutely love your channel! Blessings to your family!
We don't like beets, but we do like to make beet kvass. It's a fermented beverage that's pretty good and has a lot of health benefits. Just beets, water, and salt.
I bought an electric pressure canner this year (about $100) for small batch canning and so I don't have to watch it. It's been so nice for doing just a couple of pints/quarts of green beans every couple days.
Chocolate beetroot cake or chocolate beetroot brownies are delicious
Try and make no tomato pasta sauce also called nomato sauce. The flavor and color mimics regular tomato sauce, without containing any tomatoes. The main ingredient is red beets. It’s super delicious and can be pressure canned.
That second cabbage looks like a Dutch late flat cabbage. I’ve grown it before and it has a sweet taste.
You can juice the beets for fresh beet juice and freeze some for juice later
I give my family beets, celery, cucumber and occasionally carrots juiced together as a breakfast drink. Get those nutrients straight into those bodies. I say occasionally to the carrots because if the beets are sweet the carrots will make it even sweeter.
What a haul! You're going to be busy!
I planted chamomile for the first time. Do I just pick the flowers for tea?
freeze-dry with other superfoods, and turn into powder for a healthy drink! Don't buy that expensive beet powder like I did. You can add Kale, Blueberries, Ginger, Avacado, and loads of good stuff!
Beetroot relish is sooooo delicious!
I actually giggled out loud when Elenor said, “this is a dirty situation”. 😂 Watching Grant’s face when helping you was a second giggle moment. So much fun to have the kids in the garden! We had a small amount of rain but we sure could use a lot more. My celery isn’t quite ready yet but I sure enjoyed hearing the crunch of yours. It made me excited for what’s to come here!
Beautiful harvest, Kelsey!

Beautiful garden. Between the fires in Canada – the extreme heat and heavy rain my garden is looking very sad. Lost cucumbers, squash and peppers. Such a heart break as I worked so hard putting the garden in. I enjoy watching what you make with your harvest. So adorable that your children are big helpers
Use the beets in your baking – beets pair up great with chocolate. Dehydrate and powder some of the beets.( can add to soups, stews, baking,- including with flour in breads and pastas, smoothies etc for extra vitamins) Make beet chips – beet hummus – add beets to potatoes to make latkes (potato pancakes) Add diced beets to risotto and rices – pair w apples to make muffins – red velvet cake –
I really enjoy this channel 🥰
Borstij soup is really nice and would can pretty well for ready meals? Havn't tried canning but it uses a lot of beets and is delicious.
I dont understand why this lady has a health issue when her garden is so lush and abundant with organic produce.
Wow, those petunias 😮. And petunias are usually not my favorite summer flower but those are stunning. Beautiful harvest 😊
I bet you could make some amazing beetroot powder with your freeze dryer!
I love that sound of veggies cutting from the garden ❤
I am not a smoothie gal, but I know people buy beet powder to add to smoothies
Your garden filled out beautifully from your last tour.
Very unrelated but I want to make sure I do things correctly! I made your bread recipe on my channel. How would you like it to be credited? Do you want the recipe typed as you gave it or just linked to your channel?
Such a beautiful garden! 😍
