That did look like a fun couple of days. As you say many hands make light work….and fun work!
Thanks for posting this. I used to attend family reunions at that community center. I thought it looked familiar. It has been many years since I have attended. The last time was with my late dad so this brought back fond memories of visiting the area with him. All of his generation of family has passed away. I think some of his cousins’ families may still live in the area and still have family reunions there.
We need more people like the Chastains in this world … God Bless you ALL
So ENJOYED this video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This reminded me of a Lamington Drive my elder sister, my mother and various other ladies had to raise money for a Charity.
A Lamington is a cube of sponge cake that's been dipped in melted chocolate then covered with dessicated coconut.
Very popular in Australia and bought in half or dozen lots.
All the ladies were in our kitchen for most of a Saturday, cutting, dipping and coating and after these cakes had dried placing them in plastic boxes for pre – purchased orders.
I like sweet green tomato picles,with sliced onion,peppers,whatever spices in them. So good edith beans and cornbread,fried potatoes. They used to server at restaurants with fried fish.
Whew lawdy those look delicious! LOL! Love the fellowship and community feel of this video! ❤
I enjoyed this very much! Thank you for your channel. It is a blessing to Many.

I only have enough tomatoes for a few pints. Can I reduce the brine recipe?
I have to go deliver flowers so I'll finish watching this later! We broke into the sourkraut over Labor Day that we made from your recipe. Granny kept talking in my ear, "This kraut is so gooooood you'll never make it any other way!" She was right. I added a few spoons of applesauce and it was a hit, 2 nights in a row! No more zinc lids and rubber rings, thank you! Blessings to you all.
Hey there Tipper, Thanks so much for sharing! Just love stuff like this!! ❤& Prayers
❤
What a fun day!!!! I bet those pickles are great!!!
This was so good, Tipper! That’s amazing!!
❤❤❤ THANK YOU
I do have one question-maybe I missed it-but after boiling the salt solution and waiting until the next day, do you then add the vinegar for the solution to foll the jars?
So interesting. Love it❤
Where does he come up with all the green tomatoes?
Tipper, your friends the Chastain's are my family also. July 1700 Abraham Soblet and Pierre Chastain, French Huguenot's arrived in Jamestown Va. Their children , grandchildren and great brands inter married. I hope some have researched the family. I really enjoyed the video. Maggie from Indiana
This has to be the neatest way to can!!! I love it!!! It's just precious seeing this family work together the way they do!!!❤❤❤
Wonderful family time. Growing up in Iowa, we would get together, years ago, to put up sweet corn, alot of it! How much vinegar did he put in? 1 gallon water and 1 1/4 C salt, but I didn't catch how much vinegar to put in the next day.
If I were in charge, I would switch the positions of the lady putting the lids on the jars, and the guy putting the rings on. It would be more efficient.
I just fell in love with this family and friends! Great video Tipper! Thank you so very much!,
Valuing family connections and community service is a huge part of sharing God’s love here and now.
Hi Tipper, my goodness more jars of beauty. Thank you for sharing the pickled green tomatoes. What an operation they have going there. Looks like I have something else to try. I also am related to some Chastains through my family in Arkansas. My mom was a McFerran and someone down the line married a Chastain and they also were some good folks. ( Mac & Lenora Chastain) They always showed up to help when someone was sick or there was a gathering for any reason. Sweet memories of them. Thanks so much for sharing this video. I really enjoyed it.😊😊
you mentioned the name nina, pronounced NYE—nah. i had an aunt nina—my mother’s first cousin, really, but adult women in my family are all aunts (i’m aunt elithea)—who also pronounced it NYE-nah. everywhere else it’s pronounced NEE-nah, nee-nah is quite a common name, but there aren’t a lot of nye—nahs.
(instead of replying to a reply ) everyone brings the amount of jars they want, but don’t they also bring tomatoes? or is there a tomato kitty they contribute to? it didn’t sound as if they were growing them…
It was so awesome seeing all the men involved in canning! I'm in NJ and I'm sure somewhere out here there are men who are involved in prepping/canning but I've not come across any. It is so wonderful to see family members get together and share this experience every year. I've had to teach myself how to can through videos and such because it wasn't a part of my growing years. My Mom occasionally made jelly but that was it. I've always been interested in learning how and would have loved to have been involved in an experience like this. Thank you Tipper for sharing, I really enjoyed it!
What a wonderful tradition! Love how welcoming they are to anyone who wants to watch or participate. What a blessing (plus good food and the tomato pickles)❤

What a wonderful tradition! If I lived in the area and was invited of course, I would love to participate. The jars all look delicious! Thanks for sharing Tipper!
Tipper you have really made this video wonderful to listen too.
Have you heard any Old Timers refer to bell peppers as "mangoes?"
We do cabbage peppers and green tomatoes
My Dad used to make what he called "Salty Dogs" which were whole cucumbers he put in a large crock with some peppers, water and salt, and covered it with a cheesecloth, and he kept them down in the cellar and they would keep for months. We ate off of them all winter long, but we had to occasionally skim them off, because of the fermentation process.
