In this episode of the Mississippi Family Homestead podcast, Scott and Tina talk about how our ancestors preserved food in the 1800s long before refrigerators and freezers existed. From salt curing and smokehouses to root cellars, spring houses, egg glassing, drying, canning, fermentation, and even preserving meat with lard, they explore the old methods that helped families survive and stay fed year-round.
They also share family memories, stories from rural Mississippi, and thoughts on why some of these old-fashioned homestead skills still matter today. If you enjoy homesteading, food preservation, gardening, chickens, and learning how people lived off the land, this episode is for you.
