I have an exciting BIG ANNOUNCEMENT to make today!
After having multiple requests for scratch cooking education on my main channel, I realized the time had come for me to take another leap. So for the last couple months I’ve been working behind the scenes and I am VERY excited to announce the debut of my newest channel, Mountain Mama’s Home Kitchen.
Mountain Mama’s Home Kitchen goes live TOMORROW and will feature mainly shorter how-to-cook-from-scratch recipes for inspiration, ideas, and/or as body doubling in the background while you are cooking in your own kitchen. Recipes will have as much ASMR as possible and peaceful music for your relaxation and enjoyment. The recipes will show more scenes and step-by-step how-tos from the recipes in my homemaking videos on my channel, Singing A New Song at Mountain Mama’s Home, and from my blog, but I’ll also feature other food blogs as well. If you have a food blog and would like me to make one of your recipes and feature your blog, CONTACT ME and we can talk about a collab!
The first video on my new channel will go live first thing Saturday morning! If you click the bell under the video you will be notified when it goes live.

If you would like a sneak peek at all that is to come this month on the channel you can get one! I made the entire month visible in preview premiers! |
Saturday Publishing
For now, I’ll be publishing videos on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Be sure to follow Mountain Mama’s Home Kitchen COMMUNITY TAB if you would like to know if and how that could change as the channel gets settled.
I wanted to try publishing on Saturday mornings because I know a lot of people are looking for inspiration for what to make over the weekends, and I figured bright and early Saturday would be a nice time for people to watch as they have their morning coffee and make plans for the weekend.
Wednesdays are just for fun for now, and to help boost the channel as it gets started! As the channel grows, I may decrease to just Saturdays if Saturday publish day goes well.
Why a New Channel?
I realize some people will be wondering why I’ve not chosen to simplify and put the cooking videos on my main channel. In a nutshell, I did try, but it was an epic fail!
YouTube is an ever-changing and complicated platform to be on and learn. Since I started out learning as I went, it took a very long time for me to figure it out! As a result, Mountain Mama’s Home (my main channel) has always been a bit of a struggle and I’ve made so many mistakes there.
One thing about YT is that if most a channels subscribers do not watch the content, YT will assume the video isn’t very good, and won’t push the video. This hurts a channel in a variety of ways.
Since the style of videos for my newest channel will be no talking, more ASMR, and quite different overall, most of my current audience would not watch them if I put these simple cooking videos there (which was my experience last year when I tried).
Long story short, when the majority of subscribers don’t watch videos, a channel just kind of dies.
For the new channel, I wanted a fresh start resource where I could link recipes from this blog with videos for everybody’s convenience and to simplify.
I really hope you visit and enjoy the new channel, and consider sharing it with your friends! Starting a new channel is always a bit of an uphill roll for awhile, but with your support via views, likes, and shares you can help the channel to grow, thrive and continue!
Before you Subscribe!
Before you subscribe to the new channel, please know that YT changed. A subscribe on a channel no longer means you will get a notice when the channel produces and publishes a video. Subscribes are now basically just giving a channel a thumbs up.
If you would like to be notified when a channel produces a video, you must hit the bell by the subscribe button and then click “all notifications”.
As always, THANK YOU so much for being a part of the Singing A New Song at Mountain Mama’s home community. You are appreciated very much! Blessings! |
