Hey you guys, it's Carolyn from homesteading family. Now I've been preserving food for almost two decades,

and there are times I wish I could go back to my younger self and tell her what I now know. I wasted so many

hours sweating over hot canners and using untested recipes that resulted in wasted food. But while I can't go back in time, I can share

what I've learned over the years with you guys. So I'm hosting a free live online training

coming up on Thursday, June 19th, all about preserving. I'm sharing the lessons I wish I'd learn sooner, how to decide which preserving methods

to use when, and the basic steps to my top seven methods, and what you can do right now

to increase your food security.

So register now at homesteadingfamily.com forward slash podcast

dash live training. That's all one word. Now don't worry if you can't actually make it to the

live event, remember, it's online. You don't have to show up in person. But if you can't make it

even online on Thursday, June 19th, there will be a replay,

but you do have to be registered for this free event even to get access to the replay.

Hey, this is Carolyn with homesteading family and here is a podcast short.

In other words, an answer to a question that you have asked. How do you find local farmers that

sell their products? Right. Well, one of the best ways is local farmers market. You're often going to have your people there. But not all of your local farmers go to the farmers market. So really, the next best thing is if you don't know somebody is to just get online and go see good old Google Pants or one of the alternatives.

Google Pants. That's what? Yep old Google Pants or one of the alternatives. Google Pants?

Yes, with you.

Yeah, Google Pants.

All right, Google Pants.

Yeah, or I like StartPage or there's some of the other ones that are a little more incognito.

You don't track everything you do.
