I feed my large family of 11 all day (some days up to 15 or 20 folks), every day. We work from home, school from home, and serve over 920 meal-time servings and over 660 snack servings a month (that's 84 meals and 60 snacks for 11 people a month).

My grandma had a big freezer full of just ice cream that was reserved just for us grandkids. We spent most of our childhood summers with her and my grandpa while our parents worked and she was always encouraging us to go and get a frozen treat. It was like our own ice cream shop 😁

Right what I was thinking 🤔, one for veggies, one fruit, one cow, one chicken, one pork, one meals prepared, one drinks, deep floor freezer for breads, one random items to make meals , one for cheese. ❤❤
Have you ever thought about putting labels on the end of your freezer meals so that you can see what they are without having to move them around to see the tips?

Jamerrill my favorite thing about your channel is you remind us that everything didn’t come at once. You have struggled and now you’re blessed, but always grateful & thankful. It reminds me of the hymn The God of the good times is still God in the bad times❤️ I have worked up to 2 deep freezers and 2 refrigerators , it’s took 25 years. I have finally got our freezers organized to beef/pork in one , chicken and freezer meals in one . The refrigerator freezers one is veggies and the other is dairy. We are a family of 5 plus my Momma sometimes and our soon to be son in law, so we always plan for a family of 7. I’ve learned so much from you.
I also love how you dont put down your family members for not completing something to a standard you have but are willing to either one do it yourself or show them. Also with the Tomatoes and just having grace with those who brought them up and not shaming them for not grabbing them all its very nice to see. You may have discussions off camera but to not put down or make them feel bad its just inspiring to see.

Agreed. I always tell my kids, any part of a job that you do is part I don't have to. When it's the full job, even better, but I appreciate the help.
Your mum must thank God every day for giving her a daughter like you , she must be so very proud of you , iknow I would be xxxx ❤
I use a magnetic dry erase/white board on my freezer and back up fridge to keep track of what’s inside with dates and quantities. It has been a lifesaver for me more than a few times! 😊 I’m wondering if that’s something that might work for you. Just wanted to share. Please keep sharing and being the example ❤️. Mamas with families of all shapes and sizes all over the world are benefiting from your knowledge and experience. Along with your sweet and gentle personality 💞

Wow! Love all the freezers,but what a high electric bill you must have? One thing for sure,your family is well fed. Hope your husband,and children know what a hard working home maker you are. God BLESS
You should just get a walk in freezer build at this point. 😆
I don't know how you stay so calm without wearing a backtrack. But as you said you have been reading how to accomplish all that you do and be organized and on top of things at all times. Congratulations on on your successes. As well as homeschooling your children, very impressive. And to 9 children. Wow Wow Wow.
As you get things properly figured out maybe you can get a labeler to label each freezer and then attach a contents list of what is in each freezer that can be edited as things get used up or added so you know what is in each. Do the same with each refrigerator. But as they breakdown and can't be fixed maybe you could look into a couple of stand alone Refrigerators. No freezer in them. And organize what each shelf or group of shelves will hold. In fact in some models the shelves are more pull out draws thus allowing so to see and get at everything on/in it such as say something from in the back with out needing to pull things out to get at it.
We r a family of 7 and yeah I know how important freezers r. 😂 Also when organized ppl find things and when they r not.....like your tomatoes....ppl can't see things but tell u "Mom we brought them all up I'm telling ya." Love u Janmerrell!
Organizing freezers and refrigerators and pantries is always such a fun and interesting jigsaw puzzle. It’s never the same twice, all the pieces are catywhumpus, and when it’s done it’s so very satisfying to see! Wonderful job!!!
I love the feeling of having a full pantry and freezer, I can't imagine how it feels when you have so many people to feed!
I’m amazed how well you keep everything together… ppl don’t realize with a large family of 9 growing children just how much cooking etc goes on and plus you do a lot of videos for your channel and community too! All that food has to go somewhere! I like that you have a lot of frozen food . I’m a frozen food gal too ,as much as I can be because from what I understand as soon as the food crops are completely ripened the fruit and vegetables are then harvested and then processed and flash frozen and packaged and sent to grocery stores .. I’m not overwhelmed by all of those freezers and fridges because it took years to build up to that many and as your family grows up the more they consume (remember teens just eat “a whole lotta “)😜 they are never full!) oh if only that high speed metabolism stayed with us all the days of our lives ! 😄 You did a fabulous job of organizing your freezers cause anyone organizing a lot of food knows whether it’s in the freezer food or in a pantry food knows that it’s a major job! It’s such a great feeling when you pull together a big job of organizing anything once it’s all completed! I’m glad you take us on all your big projects like this because it teachers others how it’s done and gives them hope to manage their big jobs too. I really like how your so honest and don’t clean it all up before showing us because you know life is messy and it’s never spic and span all the time especially when you have a large family! Great video as always ! Many Blessings! 💕
You should get magnets to decorate the freezers and signal what goes in each freezer! Like cow magnets for ur beef freezer and fruits and veggie magnets for ur fruit fridge and it can be something you and ur kids look for on vacation and when ur out and about… that could be cute 🥰
So wonderful!! What a blessing you are to everyone around you
Wow!!! You’re amazing!! You have great organization skills!!
Finally a real life fridge/freezer organization video 😊. I like watching organization videos but some just don’t seem realistic. You keep it real♥️
It was organized…and then it was not 😂 constant flow isn’t it! Wouldn’t trade the chaotic family life for perfect and neat all the time though, would we?! Thanks for your beautiful, honest, inspiration!!!
What a big job and I'm sure it feels great to have it all done.
Wow! Absolutely amazing!🙂
Phew! We've done alot! Thanks for letting us come along for the ride.
Wow what a big job! Always feels so good to get it all put together when things go awry. Thank you as always for sharing your journey with us.
I have been binge watching your videos and you have wonderful ideas. Thank you for sharing.
Oh I do love organised spaces, it’s my jam. Good job Jamerrill, time very well spent.
Jamerrill you could use some magnets that say, freezer meals, crock pot meals, fruits etc for all those freezers and fridges! It would allow you to move them as you move your food around and to help those lil helper hands know where to go to get what you need! All the best, you are inspiring.
So satisfying. This is right up my alley, I love organising! Your videos are always so enjoyable to watch!
🥶 organizing your freezer 🥶 👏🏾👏🏾Awesome job, thanks for sharing ‼️🥰👍🏾
what an awesome feeling you must have getting this chaos organized!!! Great job!!
You amaze me with all you get organized, cooked, canned, as well as freezer meals. You are so blessed.
Looks great, you all did a wonderful job organizing. I now have to organize my 2 freezers. Great ideas you gave me.
Wow! Your all are set.
I only have an upright freezer and a chest freezer; but you inspired me to organize them, with my husband's help! I couldn't believe the meat I forgot we had! 😆 I have designated the chest freezer for veggies, fruit and bread. The meat almost filled our upright! No more excuses of "what do I cook for Supper?"!! 😆

If I remember right, the most chickens we processed in one weekend was 350. I came home on vacation from CA on a train with a 18 month old and oh joy had to work! Thank goodness for aunt's, uncle's and grandparents. Everyone had a job and we got them done to include making stock and canning a bunch.
You are so amazing!! Food storage is a big part of my family life. I live in a rural area and it’s imperative to have supplies in case of natural emergencies and such.
I aspire to have a stocked freezer and pantry like you do. We are only a small family of 4. But the intent is there and you give me motivation and hope that i can someday have my own basement grocery store. Great job taking care of your family mama! Its so awesome to see families still feeding their family real food that is homecooked from the country!

Wow lots of freezers . I can see how you need many freezers with your big family & home cooking business you need them. I raised 5 kids & had one upright freezer @ that time. I now have a small chest freezer & can pack it. I enjoy your channel. You are such a blessing to your subscribers.
I’m motivated to organize my freezers. Thanks.

Every time you say about “more chickens in here” I just laugh 😂 I can’t help but picture a live, fully feathered chicken popping out of your freezer 😉 🐓 And the popsicle comment “these are great at like 2 or 3 in the morning then you’re canning” 😂 Said in such a normal smooth voice, as though that’s a completely normal thing we all are always doing at 3 in the morning. Your amazing Jammerill!!!
In France we havent big family as we can see in usa but its very inspirating and you have a Dream pantry .
Awesome accomplishment ❤🎉
Now I have motivation to clean my freezers.😊
Every time I watch your videos I get inspired to either organize my fridge/freezers or my pantry cabinet spaces. You also help to remind me to pull out meal items, like tonight watching I organized my freezers and remembered to pull out meat for supper tomorrow. I've also been doing projects with fruit as I have orange and lemon pulp in my freezer(my small upright) along with peels I froze, pumpkin and strawberry puree as well so many fruit projects coming up.
Organizing idea 💡 There are magnetic file cabinet labels, its a clear plastic pocket with a paper label that you can write on. You could use it to label the contents of each freezer, to help yourself and others know what is in each freezer. 😎🌻
