Not all Police Officers are bad people. They are human just like the rest of us. I respect this officer for showing some love and compassion towards the peaceful protesters in Ottawa. Shows that not all is lost! Keep showing the love towards those who may disagree with you. Thank you! #FreedomConvoy #hugs #blueflu #ottawa Clip was screenshot from a Facebook Live by Druthers News (https://www.druthers.net)

Naturally leavened bread is so delicious and easy to make. What I love about naturally leavened bread is that as it ages it retains its moisture and keeps well without requiring refrigeration as opposed to regular homemade yeast bread that dries out, turns stale fairly quickly. Naturally leavened bread is also much healthier on the digestive system and elimination process due to the healthy bacteria that is a result of the fermentation process of the natural leavening starter. I hope this will encourage you to try natural leavened bread of your own and you can see the difference!

One of our favorite soups during the winter months is our squash soup. This recipe can be easily made from all of your own garden vegetables. This squash soup is so simple to make, its thickened with potatoes so it is also vegan friendly. There is no real recipe to this squash soup, throw in what you have, make sure to add in lots of onions, carrots and pepper for that beautiful orange color and use up the easy to grow winter squash. In this recipe I used Burgees Buttercup Squash but any squash will work. Not sure what to make for dinner tonight? Try some delicious squash soup! #ploughmansbackyard #gardengurus #easternontariogardeners #squash #squashsoup #vegansoup #veganrecipes Shop Ploughman's Backyard: http://www.ploughmansbackyard.com Also Follow us on our other social media platforms: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Ploughmans_backyard/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ploughmans-Backyard-510174729387653 Like!

Today I have a couple little changes to our homesteading birders challenge of 2022 as well as I am doing my first video of our January bird visitors. The homesteading birders challenge is a challenge for all homesteaders world wide to participate at share 12 months of birding at your homestead. We all want to see what birds you get at your homestead and see if we can see the tracking of the migration of birds. This challenge is for those who love nature and bird watching as well as just encouraging each other to spend some time to relax and reflect of the beauty of living in the country. To participate you just need to film the birds monthly at your homestead, or get photos to share and use the hashtag #homesteadingbirders2022, and just HAVE FUN! #homesteadingbirders2022 #canadianhomesteadingbirders2022 #ploughmansbackyard #canadianhomesteaders #birdwatching #wildbirds #birds #birding #migrationbirds #canadianhomesteadingbirders2022 Shop Ploughman's Backyard: http://www.ploughmansbackyard.com Also Follow us on our other social media platforms: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Ploughmans_backyard/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ploughmans-Backyard-510174729387653 Like!

Natural leavening bread is the nicest dough to work with. It makes the BEST tasting toast I have every had. This starter is kept in the fridge and needs be fed to keep its leavening at its best. This is a great way to get rid of store bought yeast and make bread like the pioneers use to before yeast was invented. Natural leavening bread has healthy probiotics that help your gut flora. I will be posting a full length video later on , but here is a quick video to follow for a great tasting healthy bread. #shorts #bestbreadrecipe #naturalleavening #sourdoughbread #healthybread #naturalleaveningbread #easybreadrecipe #noyeastbread #ploughmansbackyard #canadianhomesteaders #short Shop Ploughman's Backyard: http://www.ploughmansbackyard.com Also Follow us on our other social media platforms: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Ploughmans_backyard/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ploughmans-Backyard-510174729387653 Like!

If you haven't heard of winter sowing you are missing out! Winter sowing is a great way to get that itch to get out in the garden out of your system. If you are like me and have little space when starting your seeds and transplants then winter sowing is something you need to try. Winter sowing is so easy. Essentially you are making little greenhouses that you literally abandon out in the cold, until spring and they will be ready to transplant directly into your garden. The nice thing about winter sowing is there is no hardening off time! Watch this video and learn how easy it is and please share this video with other avid gardeners. Don't keep a secret this good to yourself! #ploughmansbackyard #gardengurus #wintersowing #gardening #canadianhomesteaders #easternontariogardeners #startingseeds Shop Ploughman's Backyard: http://www.ploughmansbackyard.com Also Follow us on our other social media platforms: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Ploughmans_backyard/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ploughmans-Backyard-510174729387653 Like!

Today with the Canadian Seed Challenge I am organizing my seeds and preparing them for mailing out to YOU! If you have not heard of the Canadian Seed Challenge of 2022 we are a group of Canadian Homesteaders on YouTube that are collaborating together and sharing seeds for our 2022 gardening season. With seeds being more and more desired in across the world it can get hard to find those favorite seed varieties. Our purpose for taking part in this years challenge is to encourage others to garden and save their own seeds so we can become more self sufficient in our gardening needs and providing foods for our families. Thanks for watching and I hope you too are preparing for this years gardening season. #canadianseedchallenge2022 #canadianseedchallenge #canadianhomesteaders #canadianyoutubers #ploughmansbackyard #seedswap #seedchallenge #gardengurus Shop Ploughman's Backyard: http://www.ploughmansbackyard.com Also Follow us on our other social media platforms: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Ploughmans_backyard/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ploughmans-Backyard-510174729387653 Like!

Catch Live footage of the #FreedomConvoy2022 heading to Ottawa Friday night. It was amazing to see all the supporters out supporting the truckers in the convoy. We ended up driving to 4 different places following the convoy along and witness a huge turn out of supporters protesting for their Canadian freedoms back. They energy was so uplifting, emotional and inspiring. Everyone we met and came across were positive, friendly and peacefully protesting for their basic human rights. The Freedom Convoy of 2022 is still taking place now, in Ottawa, Canada's Capital. I hope you enjoy this video, are encouraged and feel the love of a country coming together for the greater good of the community. May God bless this movement and the truckers who have stood up for all of our rights, when no one else would! #ploughmansbackyard #canadian #freedomconvoy2022 #freedomconvoylive #freedomconvoyottawa #liveconvoyfootage #canadiantruckers #truckerconvoy #2022 #freedom #stopthemandates #mybodymychoice #ottawacanada #truenorthstrongandfree Shop Ploughman's Backyard: http://www.ploughmansbackyard.com Also Follow us on our other social media platforms: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Ploughmans_backyard/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ploughmans-Backyard-510174729387653 Like!

#freedomconvoy2022! It would have been longer but due to technically issues, we had to cut it short! We are so happy to be apart of this historic moment! Huge turn out from Pembroke to Arnpior! From truckers, passengers and supporters that endured the very cold temperatures! We plan on sharing our experience in a few days and hopefully the footage is decent. It was a late night but well worth it! Thank you all for your support to freedom for all! (Audio midway is terrible. Buffering and issues with the phone. Best to mute it after 30 seconds or so)

Winter can be a very challenging time around the homestead. Today I am focusing on greenhouse maintenance, meaning, removing 3 feet of snow off the top of our hoop house greenhouse. Winter tends to be the most trying time for me as there is still plenty of work to do, but there is very little immediate rewards. Winter time with a hoop house greenhouse can be exhausting, and if you have ever had to keep the greenhouse cleared of snow you will know what I am talking about. What are some of your winter maintenance chores around your homestead? What do you do to maintain your greenhouse in the winter? Removing the snow from the greenhouse in the winter is a must if you have a hoop house like ours as they can collapse easily.

Come Join us as we go for a beautiful winter walk in our backyard bush. We do not have a large property, so we ended up on coming out on a couple other trails that belong to a couple of neighbours. It is such was such a beautiful day for a walk in the woods after the snow fell just the night before, leaving the trees absolutely stunning. I hope you enjoy getting a little tour of what the forest is like here in Canada. #ploughman'sbackyard Shop Ploughman's Backyard: http://www.ploughmansbackyard.com Also Follow us on our other social media platforms: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Ploughmans_backyard/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ploughmans-Backyard-510174729387653 Like!

Camping is a great outdoor activity and can be even better when spent with friends and family. This episode of Camping With A Friend we are searching for the trappers cabin. I really enjoy kayaking and camping on islands. In Canada there is many lakes and islands to choose from. I hope you enjoy our search for the trappers cabin. Unfortunately we couldn't find it, we did take some drone footage so see if you can help me spot it. Maybe we will have to head back this summer and get an actual tour of the trappers cabin. If we can find it..... Watch as a friend of mine and myself enjoy some chats, camping, cooking on the firepit and searching the beautiful lakeshores for the old trappers cabin!

We had a load of snow dumped on us in the first winter storm of 2022. There is a lot to do when you live on a homestead when you get 3 feet of snow overnight, from a snow storm. Gavin from Hidden Blessings Homestead came by to help us get plowed out, then we worked on digging out the barn doors for the chickens and we were so exhausted we saved cleaning the greenhouse off for another day. Do you get snow where you live? What are some of your challenges in the winter to maintain during the winter months.

Today I am introducing a new challenge for all homesteaders globally. Its a great way to to spend a couple winter months and really see what types of birds are migrating to your homestead. Keeping track of the birds on our homestead is something our family does yearly. We are amazed at the different types of birds that come for a week or two at a time to our feeders and we only see them in the winter months. By participating in the challenge I give details on the challenge rules and hashtags to use to make sure we all can find your videos. I think this will be a neat challenge to see the different types of birds around the world. I hope you participate and I am looking forward to seeing your videos too.
