thank you for your replies. we are looking to move away from here, just need to figure out where and time-frame and all that first. things are getting somewhat better, but with us wanting to move in the next 6 months, the job offers we have gotten, we are not sure if we want to take just to move...

hey all! its been awhile. major change of life... husband ended up getting out of the service, then 2 weeks later we separated, and got divorced. :( happier now though. still wanting to be sufficient, but having trouble getting back into the swing of it. much less resources now than i had then...

I like this idea! 1. What state/province/country are you in and what is your climate like? We are in okaloosa county Florida presently, climate is pretty good, right now it is about 70 at 10 pm... Yeah I think we will stay! 2. How many people are in your family? Marital status? There...

No, I'm still not close enough to either of those places, sadly. Maybe if we do move though, then it would only be an hour or so... Guess I will just have to wait. No there are no Amish communities that I know of, but it is possible, we haven't been here long enough to know where they would be.

If only I could! Hubby says no, and I live in military housing. :( but fingers crossed that wont be for much longer!!!!! :D

I tried there first... Closest place is 4 hours away... Totally not worth the money at that point... Then I have been watching Craigslist, but no luck there, all I'm getting with that are other people looking.

Hey! I'm back after moving south and getting new routines an whatnot... Just got a pressure canner and a stand mixer for Christmas, so yay! But now that we have moved, I have been trying to find raw milk somewhere, and I'm having no luck. I was wondering if anyone knew somewhere... We are in...

Well I did make 3lbs of jerky so there is still some for the party tomorrow... lmao... plus this morning I made more of a different kind... yummy too!!!

Got my Excalibur around 1pm..... and had it running with jerky by 130!!! Hehe now I just need it to be 530 so I can enjoy it!!! Or at least test it!!

6 to be exact.... and silkies..... but still chicks that will eventually lay eggs anyway!!!! Just had to share, we are excited!!!!!:ya

Wow! Thank you... so I can freeze it? Will that affect the taste? I may need to try it. And I already use glass for storage.... and no stand mixer, but I have an electric hand mixer now!!! I plan to try making butter with it... lol we will see how that goes. Um... and I can use the whole milk...

So yay... I have a source for milk... problem is its a 2 hr drive. I will only be going every 2 weeks... well the first and 15th... problem I am having is storing it so it lasts between the trips. I am planning on getting a second fridge so I have room for it, but other than that what else can I do?

Is this possible to make? If so, do you have any good tips?

wow! thats awesome!!! what cut of beef do you use and how do you slice it??? so far i have only attempted to make jerky with ground beef....... im afraid of the cut meat nt drying properly and then getting sick or something in the process...
