I love this man so much. I saved family heirloom greasy bean seeds that's been on our family for over 300 years. My great aunt 78 years old had some old seeds that were over 10 years old. I got 8 seeds out of 1500 to pop. Because of this man's video I have replenished the family seeds. This morning I harvested 7.5 gallons of greasy beans. .I so wish he was still alive to send him my love and appreciation. This is a dying art, 3 major corporations that control all our food. Our society has become lazy and dumbed down. I will pass down the art of gardening and canning. Many blessings

Great tutorial ! I'm 69 years young and this is the first time I have ever canned. Never to old to start!!

I'm glad OAG videos remain up 😊

I hope your family still checks in on your channel. Your well Loved & Missed. Blessings to your Loved Ones. I hope they feel your presence, and see that you are still educating and helping strangers.

Absolutely THE best canning video. The details given leave no questions on how to get the green beans canned. Thank you. This video reminds me of my grandpa. He was a Mississippi man, very patient and he also gave exact details when teaching me to do things. It was so relaxing to watch your video. I am so glad I found you.

This man was a gem!

You Sir are a very good teacher! Thank You for the posting....

Canning green beans is easy, you only have to hold them at pressure for 20 minutes for pints. OAG

My grandfather grew huge gardens every year, around 2 acres of just gardens. If we wanted to ride papaws 4wheeler, we had to go pick peas & bring them back to the house. Then we sat down with our 5 gallon buckets & shelled them. I remember my fingers would be purple & I probably ate more than I shelled. But after we got them all to the sink for mamaw to wash, we got a tank of gas & got to ride in the woods all day! 😊 sweet memories.

Washing the jars doesn't have anything to do with them sealing and staying sealed. When canning I find that if I don't wash the jars, after some time a light film of mold will begin growing especially in the threaded portion at the top. And although, it isn't harmful, it certainly is un-sightly. OAG
