Great Depression Era Living | Lost off-grid preservation technique for green beans

This video with my dad, who grew up during the Great Depression, is the most special video I've made to date. I will cherish these stories and the life lessons he shares for the rest of my life!

Come hang out with us as we tour the 120+ year "Homestead" where he grew up (without power), and take a look back at what life was like all those years ago.
