Preserving Their Appalachian Traditions on YouTube |
Meagan and Andy have deep roots in the Appalachian mountains. They started sharing their farming to KZread and have found a new drive for what they do and why they are doing it. They want to keep traditions alive, ones that would completely disappear if only one generation decided to do something else. They eat 80% of their food from their own homestead and share any extras with their neighbors, friends, and family. But they are building a new community through their KZread channel where they can treat strangers like neighbors and share what they can. @TrueGritAppalachianWays

Y'all have to know y'all are my favorite channel (my favorite you tube family). You are so honest and real. I so appreciate that you don't put the fear of this world on your videos, and that you leave out the politics. I've actually stopped watching some channels that I have watched for years for going down the "gloom and doom" road, and it breaks my heart, because I come to you tube to get away from that. I've had gardens, pigs, chickens, bees and rabbits for years, and watching channels like yours teaches me knew things with each video you post. Thank you so much for that, and I adore you guys!

I found Megan and Andy about a year ago, by accident, and they are now my favorite channel. I watched 7 or 8 of their videos yesterday-some I had previously viewed. I live in NC and grew up with my daddy growing a huge garden and giving away food to friends. We always had chickens (and eggs, of course). We didn’t can much but we stored enough potatoes for the whole winter and froze about 300 ears of corn every year. We even had a few hogs when I was a teen. I always helped harvest but wish I had paid more attention to planting and caring for the food. I learn from Megan & Andy. Thanks for featuring them. (One note: they seldom , if ever, ask for a like & subscribe. And still, their channel is growing. They deserve it!) I just subscribed to your channel. Keep finding the good ones!

They were so great to us! They are inspirational to us to want to farm again! Their passion for helping people learn to grow food is incredible! We found out afterwards that they were our 50th farm done! It has been a whirlwind and we can’t wait to get to 100 visits done! We have learned so much already!
Andy and Megan are so sweet, humble, and down to earth. They have a beautiful family. I love watching their day to day activities and how they never seem to let things get them down. They pull up their boot straps and off they go. 😊

I just recently found Megan & Andy. I have binge watched their past videos since finding them. I grew up doing the life they are living. I do what I can now. We only have 3 1/2 acres and not all of it is usable. We are getting chickens this spring and I always garden. But, the soil here is poor and I have had to do it in raised beds. But seeing how they have improved their soil using the chickens gives me hope. I have to do it all on my own because my husband is not able to because of his health conditions. He will be 61 in July and I will turn 56 in June. I love this couple because they are so genuine and down to earth.

We are fans of theirs as well! They are just very real which seems like an odd thing to say, but we know not everyone on the internet can keep to their true selves. Chickens will improve the soil drastically! When we farmed for 6 years, chickens was the biggest factor to improving our soil! We appreciate you watching and hope your garden and chickens all do well this year!

Yall remind me of my Maw and Paw. I'm 62 this year, and yall bring me so much joy to watch. ❤ I would love to come help you dress your chickens out so I can learn how to do it...maybe some day.

It was such an honor to be able to meet them and have a conversation about farming with them!
I love you guys, my daddy grew up during the depression in Idaho on a potatoes farm, no power, had well water, wood burning stoves. He raised me and my brother to survive….well I thought. He left me his cabin and my brother lives there. The power went out for two weeks and my brother was crying because he couldn’t cook and make coffee. I asked him how we were raised in the same house, I’m like you have a cast iron skillet, Dutch oven, you got chili, chicken and dumplings, cherry pie, peach cobbler, and so much more. ,
I've been watching True Grit for a few months now and it is one of my favorite past times. I feel that they are genuine. Our family growing up were small farmers and I love it. I am 72. I have now subscribed to YOUR channel!

Love your videos & the pig butchering one! I've been wanting to raise piglets for butchering & want to butcher my own. After watching your hog butcher, I actually went on FB Marketplace & found a scalding vat in KY, they said they would even haul it 300 miles to me, in MO! I don't know that I'll be able to get it, I may go another route and do a barrel type for scalding, but it was cool finding it. I love the old ways, and keeping those old traditions alive. We were homesteaders in the 70's, raised all our own food, pretty much, like y'all do. It wasn't the cool thing to do back then, like it is now, lol. It was hard but I've realized that I learned so much from all that, and it's helped to start my own little homestead a couple years ago. Thank y'all & God bless!

I grew up country in the Pacific Northwest. We did have electricity most of the time but in addition to the wood stove for heat in the living room we also had a small trash urner in the kitchen for cooking when there was a power outage. When the power went out it was short if it lasted less than 24 hours with a 2-3 week long outage happening a couple times per year. We had water in the house but were one of the few in our area that still had to depend on an outhouse. I grew up eating things like kidney stew, head cheese and tongue sandwiches, beef cheeks, liver fried in bacon grease with onion and wild mushroom gravy, green beans cooked up with tomatoes, onions, garlic with a chunk of bacon end, dandelion greens sprinkled with vinegar and on and on. Was in third grade when i first tasted store bought bread and i was in middle school when tasted a store bought marshmallow for the first time. Had lye soap, a wringer washing machine and a clothesline for a dryer. We grew/raised or foraged almost all of the food we ate. We did buy a gallon of mustard a year but grandma made ketchup, mayonnaise and butter and mom did all the canning. In addition to tradditional farm meats the brothers hunted so we had venison and an occassional bear as well as some squirrel and frog legs from them sneaking down to Schmidt's pond at night. I married a city boy and at first marveled on the instant life city provided. But when i had kids they had no understanding of that lifestyle and with encouragement from their father made fun of the backwards life i came from. They have never tasted mist of the foods i grew up with and when i did make lye soap they referred to it as "mom's" soap and would only use the store bought version. By the time i realized what they were missing out on they had bought into the belief that that lifestyle was too backwards for them. Lost to a generation.

I don’t want the outside coming into our little world. By the way we live in Smithville Oklahoma in the mountains. But not far from here is a place that tourism has taken over and it saddens my heart because it was so beautiful but is nothing but a tourist area now and is slowly creeping into our area.

In my corner of Missouri I can put money down on a hog or cow and that animal becomes MY animal in a sense. They are raising it for me.

I was amazed at the things you can freeze dry. Going to be moving to North Carolina next year after our house is built and that is one of the first things I am going to buy.

I love your channel and your family. You're so precious and I'm learning so much. I doie only ever had small gardens. And I love learning how to do things on a bigger scale. I've bought some acourage and don't know how to manage it or what equipment. I need to manage it and how to use that equipment.😊
Glad to see this interview and the passion to show and teach other people 💙💙💯

It’s a beautiful way of life… you are lucky to have known it… I’m 67 & will never have all of that but in my own small way I grow a little food and LOVE flowers. Nature is so comforting.
Thank you this video is very informative! Love you all ❤️

They really do! They just want to help people and that message was very clear when talking to them!
Pick your trees that you want to make number out of. Ban them (cut a band around the bark at the bottom). Come back in 6 months & they will be dried & ready to mill. They will not twist / warp & such because they're already dried before you cut them up.
