She was a rescue dog, they said she was a Labrador crossed with ‘something’ we are not sure really. She does love the water, chasing things and the car!

🤣🤣water pooch - love it!

@Tinachimneycreekfarm so easy to have fun by watching exercise nutters😜

@badajoma soo true! 😂

Our pleasure! I hope you found the recipe easy, it is so yummy! We enjoy watching what the possums are getting up to. The baby one is super cute! Thanks for following our journey 🙏

@@Tinachimneycreekfarm I rewrote your recipe under your channel's name and will try to bake. It looks delicious. As for Possums they are beautiful. Thank you. Have a pleasant day.

Let me know how you go with the pie! Apparently they have been making it since the 70’s! I must have been living under a rock 😂

@@Tinachimneycreekfarm By all means I will let you know.

So true! It really brightens up my day!

@Tinachimneycreekfarm so true, energy boost motivator to keep going👌

That’s for sure!

You have been so generous to share your seeds with me. The sweet pea seedlings are up now and almost every seed germinated I think so there were heaps and I think I dropped a few by accident that came up too! I’ll plant them out into the garden soon so thank you so much! I can’t wait to see the blooms too. Naomi has been such a big supporter too! I’m lucky to have you both in my life! The pie was amazing!

That’s great Cathi! Thank you so much! Im excited to watch them grow. I’m mentioning you again in my next video, I’m just finishing making it now 💜

@@Tinachimneycreekfarm you’re a sweetheart Tina💕🌸🌱 Enjoy your day xx Cathi xx 😘

You too 💕

Thank you so much! Your comment came through this time, yay! We’ve done more planting over the last couple of weeks too! It’s nice to see everything going green again after some rain.

@@Tinachimneycreekfarm I know how it feels.Seeing everything spring back to life is therapeutic 😊❤️❤️

@@bongiwesminihomestead6981 sure is!

Yes, I know. I’m sorry. I think I forgot to video the final product! Too hungry 😂 I’m trying to remember to do that more often now though. Thanks for watching!

Thanks Rachel, we are getting one egg every couple of days now which is a start. They seem to be getting back to normal now, still a little wary though I think. The pen is holding up well so far and we’ve seen prints around that look like a quoll so hopefully they can’t get in now. The permaculture course has been so awesome and now we have some more awesome neighbours to trade with!

Yes, it has been such a practical way to improve everything we have been working on, trying to grow a food forest here. People laughed and said good luck with that out here and now we have the perfect example of it working just 5 km from us. Maybe you could go to next years one. I’m planning on going again 😁

@@Tinachimneycreekfarm how good is it to show people that you can do something they thought impossible. Well done 👏 Yes, definitely something we would consider attending 😁

Thank you so much for following our journey and for your kind words ❤

Yes, I forgot to say that the old version was just held together with plastic zip ties that came with the coop, they got brittle over time and could be easily broken off. This time we fixed the chicken wire with metal fencing clips so it makes it was extra strong! We put some hay in there afterwards as well, we still let them free range during the day which they love, gives them a chance to scratch around naturally as well. They have finally started laying again! Yay!

@@Tinachimneycreekfarm excellent news all round 👏 👍

I know! I feel so sad for them.

Thanks so much 😊We have been learning heaps at the classes. It will probably takes years to get it really good but hopefully we will get there eventually!

Thank you! We were very upset about the chooks when it first happened but now that we have fixed up the pen we are hoping to get some more. We are in the New England Northern Tablelands of NSW, Southern Granite Belt area.

Lots of yummy Christmas food!

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it 💜

Thanks Lana! You have really lit a fire under us and we’ve been so excited to get all your strategies in place! Your knowledge and experience is amazing and all the time you’ve been so close to us!

It sure does!

Thanks so much! We have learnt so much in just a few weeks! Can’t wait to show you what our mushroom spawn looks like now! Truffles is always entertaining!

​@@TinachimneycreekfarmYes he is.Looking forward sis❤❤

We have been learning so much it has been so inspirational!

Thank you, it was a very upsetting day. Our new dog Truffles now 2 years old has brought us a lot of joy!

Thank you! It is so useful and doing an awesome job so far!

Oh no, how heartbreaking for you💔It is a terrible thing to happen. We let our chickens free range out of their pen during the day so that they can enjoy a bit of freedom. We have to try to fortify their pen before we get any more. We’ve had to lock the two remaining chickens up overnight in our outdoor dog kennel while we get this pen fixed up. Thanks for the encouragement and good luck to you as well!

That’s exactly what I thought when I saw all those dead chickens and hardly any of them eaten. Such a waste. Your experience with the fox sounds like Dances with Wolves! We got back down to -0.3 degrees last night but no frost thank goodness, I just planted out my new seeds! I am looking forward to going to the permaculture course. It was a very sad day losing our chickens but hopefully we have learnt our lesson.

Thank you for watching and commenting 💜

Yes, thank you and we still have so many more trees to get in the ground!

You’re welcome!

They are so beautiful right now!

@@bongiwesminihomestead6981 am sorry for the loss of your chickens 🐓 hope you get some more 🫂❤️🐓🐓

Very sad day indeed 😢

Thanks so much for the kind words! I hope it brings you some peace 💜

It never really occurred to me to believe in god.

@@Tinachimneycreekfarm It's nice when you can look at a beautiful bee or bird or sunset and thank the creator for his incredible world and for placing us in it. I'm well aware that many scientists would dispute this idea as childish fantasy but we don't look at a building and not realise there was a builder, or a computer program and not recognise there is a creative mind behind the code. Yet with life and DNA that is exactly what evolution teaches. God's word says in Romans 1:20 " For his invisible attributes, namely his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse " ( meaning us ) . Without God life has no ultimate purpose or meaning . 🙂

I’m really glad to hear that god brings you meaning and purpose.

We have 140 acres in northern New England tablelands NSW. You would only really need 5 acres though to do what we are doing right now. The eastern side of the range is easier for growing than here though. There are some off grid fb groups that offer accommodation for people wanting to help out in this kind of lifestyle. I hope that helps.

@@Tinachimneycreekfarm thnx so much
