You Need This In Your Pantry Before You Can’t Get It In The Stores
Thank you for Watching! With a dairy cow and multiple milking goats we have milk running out of our ears but nothing ever goes to waste. This is how we preserve all of our milk.

I always learn on your channel. I'm amazed what you folks do. Love how you show love towards each other
The farm pans at the beginning was so perfectly beautiful I almost cried. You are sooo blessed to live the life you live, in the place you live it!

I felt the same way. I was weirdly homesick for their homestead. I wish I lived there. 🥰 I am so glad that this wonderful couple gets to live in this beautiful place.
You have an absolutely beautiful homestead. God has truly blessed you - and all of us, for all your share1
I love the passion, enjoyment and happiness that you bring to every video. It’s obviously not staged, you are two naturally joyful, sharing, fun people 🥰
I was waiting for Mr Stivers to ask Jen to open that big jar! 🤣🤣🤣. You guys have come so far. Blessings to you both!
Goat cheese! From frozen goat milk…….wonderful. Buy a plastic tub for your bottom shelf that way if the lights go off and the milk thaws it won’t get all over your freezer. Dehydrated goat milk! Lucky people!
Just wondering why you don’t make Ghee which has a shelf life of up to 5 years, high burn point and great nutty flavour. Was watching Doug & Stacey and found it saves on Fridge and Freezer space especially if we have major power outages or EMT issues. Love you guys, keep rocking it 👍🏼🙏🏼❤️

Actually, I've found the burn point isn't as high as one would think, the "nutty" taste is not what I'm looking for in butter, and it does not bake in the same way as butter does. I'm a baker, a super taster, and I've made plenty of ghee (not clarified butter). Many think they're the same. I just may try making clarified butter, but so many projects going on ATM 🙃

If you prepare ghee right it tastes like butter in an oil. The nutty flavor comes from how long you cook off the water and milk solids.
Hi Guys! I would LOVE a video on keeping chickens and the storage of eggs. 🐔 🥚 I am looking to put some chooks in my yard as a beginner and could use some tips please! I see your eggs on the kitchen counter and wonder about how you store them. I think you both are wonderful and I enjoy your videos. Thanks 🌱🪵🌸
Growing up on a small island (only 21 miles long) there were a few farmers that had dairy cows and there was a milk plant that pasteurized milk and sold it in glass bottles, it was so nice when my mom could afford to buy a bottle. I tell you that the cream took up 1/3rd to 1/4th of the bottle , the plant was an opportunity for people to have work and the milk was delicious. Then all of a sudden the Government stepped in and said all milk has to be homogenized. The farmers has to get rid of their cows and their beef animals so they lost their livelihood. So sad for everyone !
Gen, ya'll do it better and easier, I had to get up at 5am every morning before school and milk the cow by hand and again at 5 pm bring the milk in strain it then put it in the fridge. Till the next day then skim the cream off ,so much easier with what you have. Love watching ya'll seeing what your doing on the farm , keep up the good work and have fun with it, as I'm not as young as I used to be , but still going thank God, have my hogs and chickens and ducks , and I'm 73 . God Bless You and your Family,

I am blessed as well to still garden and have smaller animals too! (Same age LOL! 10/48). Blessings on you sister! From Ohio 🥰🌻🐛
I would love to have some of that fresh milk. I love it. I will not drink milk out of the stores. I don’t eat store bought eggs either. Wish I lived closer to you. I am 67 years old
You are all working so hard committing yourself to the farm life! Love all your efforts!
Hi Jen & Zack. You can make Feta cheese with the goats milk which is very yummy and you can make spinach pie and many other things with the cheese
You can also use powdered goats milk in your soap!!
So awesome that you do all ways of preparing milk
People are crazy for not drinking it. So good for you
Love you STIVER'S 💛💙💜💚
Ahh lol the head snapping in the beginning gave me a neck creak..luv your vids!!
Homesteading is hard work. Kudos to you both for working so hard at it. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻.
My animals 😉loved the goats milk we bought when visiting the store
I love your smiles. You obviously love what you are doing. My son's name is Zack and his wife's name is Jen.
I'm milking two ND does right now so I don't get gobs of milk but it's enough to make 1 lb butter and 2-3 lbs of cheese a week plus I soak the chicken's feed in the whey and add some to the dog and cat food. I don't drink milk but when the G-kids are here they do and I don't have to run to the store. I love having my own milk.
You two have become so poised withbyour vlogs. I have watched you for a couole of years and learned so much. I was literally dying before I got my dairy animals secondary to auto immune diseases. I have goats and cows, pigs poultry, and donkeys. I also have a good sized garden thatvis doing well with your fertalizing advise.
WOW , y'all have the preservation aspect down . Kudos !
I love goat milk. It helps my stomach
I wish I was your neighbor right now.I do wildlife rehab.and I have a fawn right now and it needs to have goats milk.The goats milk is $4.54 a quart and goes through one in 24 hours and now is getting to drink up to two in 24 hrs.I think I need a milking goat.lol😄
Love the cream separater..been wanting one for a while. It's on our list 😀 Thanks for sharing 😊
Not quite ready for the goat just yet, but have been entertaining the idea. My husband and I live on a fixed income. We've only owned this property (a little over 5 and a half acres)for 3yrs. and our priority has not been the clearing and the fencing. However, you have inspired us to get a dehydrator and we are going to start practicing dehydrating our eggs. 🤞 Thanks for clarifying what the bar was for and thanks for keeping on pushing for that self sufficiency. In today's world, were especially need those pushes. Looking forward to your next video! 🙂👍
Good, good information.
You may consider a Walk-In Freezer and Walk-In Refrig.
Thanks
In the 60's when I was in grade school. My aunt would buy all their milk from a local dairy. And when I would spend the night with my cousins. They only had that milk for our cereal. Well. I could not drink it. The look of it gagged me. And she would get mad at me. So I would use it on my cereal and have the same amount of milk left in my bowl after eating the cereal as before I ate. Then she would tell me to drink the left over milk in my bowl. Yuck. I would sit there as long as she made me and still refuse to drink it. Then she would give up. My parents bought homogenized whole milk. And that was what I was use too. I'm allergic to dairy now. And raw milk, it still would gag me at 62. Glad you all like it. But I couldn't drink it. I also have a real problem with food textures and also the look and smells of foods. And since I'm allergic to gluten and dairy. I cook all of our own meals. And I can most of the foods we eat, plus dry, freeze etc. I'd love to afford a freeze dryer some day. That would be awesome. If I wasn't allergic to milk I could make butter etc. Out of it. But not drink it. I know, I'm weird.
Hi guys... Jen's cook book arrived yesterday 🙂 I'm very excited to cook from it... 💕 Deb..ACT Australia 🦘
I was raised on raw milk, never tasted pasturized milk until I was about 20, one taste, and actually said "yuk", I no longer drink milk at all.
I love my animals cows, goats, pigs and chickens and I can’t believe how easy it is to freeze dry eggs and milk and I can’t wait to be able to harvest from my garden and freeze dry my vegetables
I've gotta get my soap going again. I'm going to start making some from beef tallow. I still have a ton of coconut oil, but I'm wanting to switch to an animal fat based soap for the health of our skin.
And you didn’t cry….. over the spilled milk! Lol. Really enjoy watching your channel!
Could you guys do a video on how to de-worm/vaccinate goats? Tips, tricks and maybe some do's and don'ts or as personal preference sees. Really just things a beginner should know before getting them.
Thanks great video👏👏👏
Good job!
Enjoyed the video
thanks
Don’t forget yougurt, cheese, ice cream, etc
My wife and I want to start a homesteading type home. We went plant-based (vegan) about a year ago mainly for health reasons, so we won't have milk or any kind of meat. We thought about having chickens, mainly for fertilizing purposes and for eating bugs in the yard and even selling the eggs for those who need them. So, I think it will be a little easier for us since all we really have to worry about is a garden. But you all are very inspiring and I'm glad I found your channel! Thank you!

Goats are vegan. Just kidding, but they really are.
cant have a freezeDrier but I do have a dehydrator & vacuum sealer. I hope to not depend on my electricity,So I have lots to learn on prepare& store foods !
I luv the start of your blogs guys
I think it's cute how you guys milk together! How fun. Do you have plans to get any sheep for milking? Take care, thanks for the share.
that was exactly the way I dealt with my goats milk, made it so easy when making soap.
Love a foggy morning on a farm. Reminds me of our family farm in Kentucky.
heya good for your kids that they drink the raw milk most people don't like it they are used to starbuck milk and that is no so fettie but olso less nutriciant
Loved it when we had milk cows. When I knew I was going to have too much milk for a while, I froze the butter and bought a couple of runt pigs to fatten out for the freezer.
Jenn seat the kids on the floor and give the kids your jar with the cream in it. Let them roll it over to each other like they would a toy car.just a little way away from each other and after awhile of rolling it it will start thunking as it turns solid. It keeps them busy and have fun. You get your butter and no one has to keep shaking those jars . My siblings and I did this when we were little.
Love your excitement and commitment to the farm. 💜
Just a thought but you may benefit from buying breastmilk freezer bags for the goats milk. 🤔 Just a suggestion and I'm not sure if that would be a cheaper alternative or not.
Back when I was a kid, we had a milking cow. After I tried it when it was very cold I loved it. God Bless Y'all
Yes, I share my cow's milk with my parents. 😁
hugs from pam and john keep it coming on video
I remember going to my aunts farm and milking her cows, hand churning butter and whipping cream for homemade cream puffs she’d make with me. It’s the life I always longed for but never had….. We’d make all kinds of cheeses, yogurt, and yummy ice cream. Often mothers came to buy goats milk for their babies who couldn’t drink cows milk or formula. The homemade butter was so awesome on homemade rolls and bread….are you making zucchini bread yet? I’m going to make zucchini flour with the extra ones I get this year.I’m canning a lot of meat etc because power failure is a worrying with having three freezers…last year we lost over $400 of meats when the freezer went out in our upper barn and didn’t catch it in time….definitely 🤢🤢🤢
I got that goat! And, if anyone is interested in a goat that produces a moderate amount of milk, I have a Kiko goat with a nice udder and decent teats for sale. She is currently in milk, but her kid is old enough to be weaned.
Would love to know where you got your little milk cans , I have the old bigger one from my mom she was a milked and she also separated cream and milk she ran a cream station where she tested all local cream and if was sold really love you videos, your neighbor in western Kentucky
Love the different views of your farm
Get a goat. That way you can say, ya, I got kids but I keep them in the barn now. All animals are a joy, a responsibility & expensive. But the Cheesecakes are worth it. NE OHIO
Great video Guys & your advice was spot on. Cheers Denise- Australia
How are the kids gardens doing? I’d love to see those precious kids on an upcoming video.
I just bought one of your goats milk soaps!! I'm excited to try it. Just love this channel ❤
Very interesting you guys are so knowledgeable 🤷♀️🤗❤️💯
I want a goat so much!!!
I love you all, but Im waiting for you all to teach me how to make cheese lol. I got the milk, cream, sour cream, cottage cheese, yogart, BUT I havnt ventured to cheddar cheese yet lol
Thank you for the great information 😀
Have you ever ventured into making different cheese making ?
Do you have any videos on cream separating goat milk and making butter? I have just goats and it seems most homesteaders are switching to cows. Thanks as always for the info🙏🏼🌻
Love your videos, the information and the great relationship vibes! 👍❤👍 If you lay your goat milk baggies flat they'll take up less room, if space is an issue. Unless you're worried about leakage, but I've never had a problem with sauces.
love goat milk but expensive in stores so now its a treat hugssss
❤️❤️❤️❤️
great video. Thank you x
Love watching your videos. I have a request - when you film you are always moving - can you steady your hand or move less. The movement makes me dizzy and I have to look away and only listen.
Do you have any plans for cheese? Fresh cheese is super quick and easy and tasty. Hard cheese would be a different game, I imagine.
Do you ever make Goat cheese like Cojita?? I’d love to have 1 goat but don’t know yet! Great video thanks for explaining the entire process!
Love you guys! Will you be at HOA in VA again this year?
Where did ya get the crocks for pickles
Can you do a video on freeze drying? We have one and don’t know how to set it up??? Help!!!
Love what your doing... When I was little my mom gave us goats milk and cheese...Did not like it ...tasted like chalk...havent had it since...why does it taste like that just wondering and I am 68 yrs old now I must of been maybe 5 to 7 yrs old then
Jen And Zak Thank you for sharing, I really want to come visit the Store and see you all and the farm and just talk awhile ,but gotta plan ahead so hubby can get vacation time, I can't do it myself cuz I almost died in January and I am not able to get things done yet but I'm getting their anyway HVe a Beautiful 4th of July weekend ❤ 😎
I can't remember, do you also make cheese, yogurt or or other dairy extras as well?
you have great content advice 👌
Just curious why don’t you guys sell a STIVE Tribe Tshirt?
Have you both recovered from the lightning?
Do u use a Sharpie to write item descriptions and dates on Ziplocbags? Brad n kalifornia
What do you think about Cow sharing? I don’t think I have the room to properly raise a cow, but I was thinking of finding someone who would be willing to cow share with me. However, besides monetarily helping, and offering to come milk the cow. How else could I help?
I would think freeze drying goats milk would be better than freezing. You keep your freezer space for other items.
I am really looking into getting a Harvest Right Freeze Dryer. I have dairy goats & would love to be able to long term store the goat milk when we start getting a lot. Can you do a video of reconstituting the goat milk for either say a bottle baby or just for drinking in general?
Hey guys I totally love you and your Chanel ! I really hope to meet you in person one day! Is there any chance that you could share your goat milk soap recipe with us?
🧡🧡
So, which one of you is Celina? 😂☮️💖🙏🇺🇸
Are you allowed to sell the butter? I couldn’t remember if I saw it in the store
How do you guys make a living?
How do I get some of the freeze milk?
Will you try cheese making with your cow's milk? I'm looking for a farm near me where I can get fresh milk for cheese making.
I’m just wondering what the electricity cost to run your freeze-drier?
Do you sell your freeze dried milk?
