Hey everybody, this video is going to tell you about how you can enter into the giveaway
for a cookbook that was published by Alderman Farms.
But, before we get to that, let me tell you, I was just out in the garden and was picking
some of these Boston Pickling Cucumbers that look like they're ready to get put into a
Mason jar, and also plucking off a few of these Beefsteak Tomatoes that look like they
just want to get on a sandwich really quickly.
And, it was while I was working in the garden that the mail came in and look what finally
made it.
Here's the cookbook that Tommy and Patti over at Alderman Farms have had published.
Now this isn't necessarily their work. This is a ancestor of theirs, a family member who's
passed away who is known throughout the area for her cooking.
And they wanted to keep that legacy going and make sure that her recipes were not lost
and so they did a Kickstarter to try to raise the funds so they could publish this book.
And it was successful. It had been funded and of course things take time to get money
in and get the publisher to print the books and so forth, but it's here.
And I backed this Kickstarter at a rate that allowed me to get two copies of the books
so that I can give one copy to you.
So here's what you're going to get with the giveaway:
One copy of The Fruit of the Spirit Cookbook and also because it is kind of a tradition
for us to do a giveaway that seeds are involved, I'm going to make sure you get some seeds
right out of our garden.
We're going to give you some Beefsteak Tomato Seeds.
And also what is currently my favorite, this little Yellow Pear Tomato, some seeds for
that.
We also have some Sugar Snap Peas and then because you really need to always take care
of your pollinators and spice up your garden a little bit with color we're going to give
you some Marigold seeds and some Borage and Comfrey seeds as well.
If you don't know what to do with that Marigold, Borage and Comfrey, then you need to go back
inside J&J Acres YouTube channel and start searching for those terms and watch some of
the videos about them.
Now, what do you need to do to qualify and get your name in the hat for this giveaway?
You need to click on this link right here which is going to take you over to the J&J
Acres website and on that website is a form for you to fill out information for the giveaway.
Some things you need to know about when I do a giveaway: I'm going to ask you for your
information up front. The last thing that I want to do is have to hunt you down after
you've win a giveaway and find out what your address is so I can ship you your winnings.
It's a real pain in the butt. So, I'm going to ask you for your address right up front.
You also HAVE TO be a subscriber to the J&J Acres YouTube Channel. If your name is randomly
selected and I go to try and see if you are a subscriber of our channel, if I cannot find
you - I'm not going to try to hunt you down and ask you - I'm just going to ask the system
to check for another random winner and try that person. So make sure you're subscribed
otherwise you might miss out.
So, click on the link. Go to the website and register for the giveaway. There'll be some
other options in there to put your hat in a few more times if you wish. Be sure to share
it with your friends because that will get you another entry. And we'll let this run
for 5 days from the start of this video.
After 5 days the polls will close and we will select a random winner and get the prize package
out to you.
So, what exactly can you expect out of this cookbook, because this is the meat of it if
you will - food is good but the cookbook what's lets you prepare it better.
What I can tell you is that of the pages that have recipes on them, there are 140 numbered
pages - but several pages have more than just one recipe, so you're looking at a plethora
of information here. And, the recipes have entrees as well as desserts and everything
in between.
And, as a matter of fact, I just happened to notice there's even a recipe in there or
dill pickles. So, I'm just going to have to give that a try myself.
There's also some pages before and after those numbered pages that are just bonus information.
At the beginning you can find some helpful hints - some things that maybe your Aunt,
Mother or Grandmother may have passed down to you, or that maybe you need to have passed
down to because they didn't have an opportunity to tell you about it.
At the backside of the book you're going to find some other helpful hints and some good
general information about cooking. Everything from common terms or jargon that are used
in cooking to measurements and so-on and so-forth.
So, it is a well-rounded publication.
So, go to the link, register for the giveaway, and then go stop over at Alderman Farms YouTube
Channel and tell Patti and Tommy that you appreciate what they're doing by extending
the legacy of their ancestors and publishing a cookbook from someone who's passed away
but who's food can endure forever.
Thank you all for watching. We'll see you next time.
