A few years ago, I had a couple of hogs to take to the butcher. I ask my neighbor to borrow his stock trailer and he hauls horses and cattle in it. He said that a horse would not get into the trailer after pigs had been in it. He is the type of guy that would do anything for you .

Apple sauce is where it's at, fresh and warm is delicious. Rubarb and apple sauce on my morning cooked oats, now that's devine. Thank you.

Poor Lady having to live near piggies. Never seen her trot in the barn before! So nice of the girls to make kitchen contributions in support of their mom. Thank you for sharing.🤞🏻🐴

Love it -- piglets, applesauce, and your Albert Einstein quote - "In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity." Thank you; I needed that reminder today. Love your wonderful kitchen too, and to see the three of you enjoying yourselves.

Love homemade applesauce, my mom would make it when I was younger and apple trees were still here. Both have passed on but the memories are still here. God Bless

Just seeing a pig returns that distinctive odor of those critters - I can imagine Lady has the same sensation. Thanks for sharing.

You can tell those 2 horses are used to being a team. One walked out and the other followed. And the other team just sat there looking at them. 😂😂

Also, maybe Lady doesn't like the pigs keeping her awake all night with their ruckus 😆

Fun watching the girls make applesauce. Funny watching Lady's reaction to the pigs. : )

I love Hampshires. We had a Hampshire boar many years ago who was so gentle that kids could ride him, even though he was almost 800 lbs. I kept a lot of his daughters because they were really gentle too. My weaning average went up with such good, gentle sows. I like your strainer. It looks like it is better about not leaking juice all over the kitchen than mine is.

My wife's 1st born , my step daughter came from the city and of course we served garden fresh corn on the comb.She says where did you buy this corn. It's the best I have eaten. I told her it came fresh from the garden. Good things come from gardens.

Getting in the Holiday Spirit. I'm thankful for you and your family while projecting what the vast majority of American Citizens appreciate for the life we have and values we hold dear. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS.

Wow,this is great. Watching your pigs grow will be fun.Hope they grow well for you. Our family farm had raised many thousands of them over the years. The pork and apple 🍎 sauce make good eating. We also had apple trees that made lots of apple treats. Apple pie made with lard crust is my favorite! My wife is a very good cook.Thanks!

Hello David how are you doing. Wish you a nice weekend.

That's an interesting contraption! I wondered how you dealt with leaving the peels on. I have a "cheatier" way of making applesauce, but I have to peel and core them first, so I'm not sure it's really a "cheat." I just toss the wedges into a crockpot and let them cook down all day. But it's pretty much just me, no crew to enjoy the process with. You are blessed to have each other! I remember the days when my mom and aunts and I would gather to cook up a mess of whatever. Boy, those were fun times!

Mares notice things more than geldings. Built in mother-safety software. 😀 I was trail riding my mare a few years ago and the trail bordered a pig pasture.

I have one of those pressers made by Squezzo that makes making juices, salsa, and several other garden and fruits easy to can. Tomato juice, is one that is easy and I have to add water to cut it some as it otherwise is to acidic for some to drink. Same with the grape juice.

I love making applesauce. I have a Victoria Strainer. I wash my apples and cut out the bad part, cook the apple until soft and put it all through the strainer, core and all. Strainer does a great job of kicking out the peel, and core with the seeds. Doing mine next week.

Love to see Trudy.

Great way to make Applesauce and even Tomato Juice. My Father had one of those grinders or processors. His was metal that’s how old his was. Thank you for another great video.

Apple cores to the piggies. Feed a pig make a friend. Poor Lady, she struggles. Not easy being the only girl in the barn. 🐴

All the years my Mom canned food from our garden kept us in plenty of good food. Sure miss those fresh green beans. My little sister moved to Dallas and made some friends. Invited her friends for dinner. She got out a jar of Mom's garden canned green beans and served with her meal. Her guest ask, where can we purchase these beans? Sis laughed and said, you can't they came out of my Mom's garden. They said, these are the best beans we have ever eaten. And truly they were great. :)

Apparently I've been doing wrong all these years! I just throw the cored apples & spices in a blender, pour it into jars and call it good. I don't have that fancy grinder. 😜

This video brings me back in time when I was a little boy, when my grandfather had pigs and when my mom taught me how to make a meal the first time which was applesauce. I would like to taste your applesauce, you're doing it a different way than I do :-) For sure it tastes very good. We have had a bad apple year this year, so almost no apples. Also no cherries no plums.. :-( Guess it was too cold in May. Have a nice day everyone!

I couldn’t believe it…this summer my boy actually SNIFFED NOSE to NOSE with a red piglet, I just about fell over backwards when de did it! Normally his head is high, he snorts, gets wide eyed and wants to race past the pen to get away from there! Enjoy your apple sauce🍎🥣

Smash the thing down to cut them in pieces, then push the pieces out with your fingers. We needed to have a funny shot of whatever Abby was standing on to process the apples into applesauce.

I was glad to see you can some of that applesauce, It will taste great with those piglets someday. (Sorry, I couldn't resist.) Thanks, again, for another fun video.

BTW I loved seeing another aspect of farm life! Do you guys have anything like a root cellar? Would love to see that. The house I grew up in was an old log house with asbestos siding. It had a dug cellar under it very small. Wasn't very good as I remember stuff regularly froze in it. When I was about 10 they dug a new one out in the yard, and built walls of concrete block with an empty can storage room above. It worked much better.
