Welcome back to the Simple Farmhouse Life podcast. If you have been hanging around the preserving freezer cooking stocking your pantry world over on YouTube, you have definitely heard of Becky from Acre Homestead.

She does these amazing freezer day cooking video she does where she will preserve so much food that she gets for a good deal.

If you love content like that where somebody is taking something that they either got for a good deal or grew themselves or they're starting a homestead, Becky is your person.

She has all of that kind of content.

And today I get the privilege to interview her here on the Simple Farmhouse Life podcast.

We had some question boxes over on, well, so now we're doing this on two places because a lot of you said that you don't have Instagram, but you want to be a part of submitting questions for the guests.

And we've been doing that exclusively through my Farmhouse on Boone Instagram, which back and up really quick, if you are brand new to this podcast, I do find that sometimes I just take for granted that everybody just knows that what my Instagram is, which you don't.

Because my podcast is called Simple Farmhouse Life. So you may not know that I actually have an Instagram YouTube channel and blog called Farmhouse on Boone.

So I normally go by the name Farmhouse on Boone. This podcast just happens to be called Simple Farmhouse Life.

So we have been putting a question box over on my Farmhouse on Boone Instagram for the guests so that you can weigh in and give your opinion on what we should talk about.

Or if you have a burning question for a certain guest that I'm going to have, you can participate, but a lot of you are intentionally not keeping Instagram.

And I'm actually with you most of the time. I have the Instagram app on my phone like once every 10 days or so just to check in.

But I'm with you. I don't like to constantly be scrolling and I feel that constant pull with my phone. So anyways, we also have these Simple Farmhouse Life YouTube channel where we put all of these podcast episodes.

And we have started putting in the community tab the question boxes. So if you get on YouTube and you see like a static post pop up, that's the community tab.

And so you very likely if you get on YouTube and you follow this channel, if you follow Simple Farmhouse Life on YouTube, you'll see that community post because a lot of times YouTube kind of prioritizes those.

And so when you get on YouTube, you might see it in which case you can submit your questions there as well.

We had a lot of listener questions for Becky because she is so popular over on YouTube. So we're going to get into some of those and talk about freezer cooking, stocking the pantry, sourcing, preserving, let's dive into the interview.

My name is Lisa mother of seven and creator of the blog and YouTube channel Farmhouse on Boone. Join me as I share with you my love for creating a handmade home from scratch cooking and a little mom and entrepreneur life along the way.

All right. Well, thank you so much, Becky, for joining me. I'm so excited to have you on here. And I know a lot of listeners probably already know you they love it whenever they recognize two different people that they know coming together, like that's just very exciting.

So it's great to have you for those who don't, if you could just introduce yourself, tell us about your YouTube channel, your blog and what you focus on.

Well, my name is Becky and my YouTube channel focuses a lot around food, cooking, growing and sourcing local whenever possible and preserving food.

So I try to have it be come full circle. So from the garden into the kitchen preserving it and then how to use it throughout the year.
