Generations Homestead
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 6 มี.ค. 2020
We are a couple that moved to Bama from Michigan and we are working on transforming our new place into a suburban homestead.
We have one acre in the city limits but don’t let that fool ya!! We have raised gardens, in the ground garden and chickens!! Even a rooster or three.
We have Brown Thumb Nursery that we are starting this year to help supplement our income for the homestead.
We are on an adventure! Come join us as we grow!

New greenhouse went up!! We're getting ready for fall/winter! Frost has already hit us here in Alabama. We just can't grow nothing.

We are Rob and Deb and we live in northeastern Alabama in a smaller town called Southside. We moved here from Michigan a few years ago and have found home.
What sets us apart? We are in our late 50's and we have found out what we want to do when we grow up! Finally, after all these years, we are going back to our roots and wanting to take you with us! It doesn't matter your age, dream again! Our dream is to have a place in the country where we can have more chickens, come cows, pigs and who knows what else! We want to share this with our family and friends. We want to establish a community of like minded people to join us.
Becoming more sustainable and getting back to what has been lost over the years is what we are striving to revive. When we were younger children, we have memories growing up and helping in the garden and then storing that food to last us through the winter. When we married, we continued that tradition. Somewhere along the way, we lost that. Now we are pushing to get that back. Many days were spent preparing food and preserving it. We plan to incorporate many methods of preserving as the years go by such as: canning, fermenting, dehydrating & root cellar storage.
A small backyard Nursery is one of the Resources we are developing to further our dream of becoming self-reliant in our Homesteading endeavors. You can jump over to Brown Thumb Nursery and view Rob's videos over there.

We also have been on a journey to improve or health! We have adopted the Keto lifestyle and pushing 100 lbs lost between the two of us! To help share this with others, we have started our Keto & Cast Iron channel to blend two other aspects of our life into our world of TH-cam!

Y'all seem to be doing great, hi Zac and Kayla kid are looking very well miss you guys
I live in Georgia. I really enjoyed your videos
Thank you!! We're so glad you like them! We’re almost neighbors! 😂
Yes!
Looks like you two had a terrific weekend at the TH-camr Meet and Greet!
Yes it was! Hopefully one day you can join us!!!
Love seeing you guys again!!! ❤
Love seeing you too Jac!!
It was a fantastic day for sure. Petals is always awesome 🌺🌺🌺🌺
I totally agree Sue!!!
I really enjoyed hearing about Psalms 31. 🙏 I can truly relate! ❤
It’s so easy to be too hard on yourself. One of my mentors told me, “you need to show yourself grace. “ It’s not done in one day.
We watched together. Your Poppa & Momma are so proud of you! Such a hard worker! 🎖️❤️❤️🥰🥰🎖️
Loved your chat!!🙌🏻🙌🏻
Great to see you getting your herb seeds started. Thanks for posting the product information in your video description.👍🏽.
Hey Matt!! Yep! Glad to get this farm producing more of our medicine cabinet :)
It’s easy to keep talking when you’re at the potting bench isn’t it. ? lol.
LOL It is!
Loved it!!! Love Homestead Generations!!!😊
Love you!!🥰
Good to see you guys. I have missed you.. 😊
Thank you!!! Trying to get things done. We’ve had the over wheelmies. 😂
That's a great idea!!!
It really is!
Any advice for a 1st time bean grower on when to harvest? I don’t want to harvest too early or too late.
We will harvest when they look full and bright green. When they start going brown and shrinking, I will save those for seeds.
Enjoyed your video guys....thanks for sharing 😊
Came over from Popup Homestead.
Welcome!!!
You guys did an amazing job!! This video is so great
Thank you!! Wish we lived closer!! It was so great meeting y’all!!
Nice
❤ Awesome event. Sorry we missed it.
There’s always next year!! It will be great doing it together!!!
Love these peps❤
hi generation homesteadt where is the follow up on your video where you made propagation sticks of hydrangea limelight robert
Hi Robert!! Rob did a follow up video on his channel of Brown Thumb Nursery. Here is the link. th-cam.com/video/laM9293Q_2k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=skJLNcdEQaKLgERP Now that we moved to the homestead, we get to start all over.
Awesome. My latest book involves a chicken, paramedic Chris and the runaway chicken.
I need to take a monitor an egg trays and lay them on flat ground so they can hatch decent
Beautiful mountain 🏔️. Thanks for sharing. Oh and that creek is awesome 😊. Just do as you can and let it evolve.
Thank you @joybartlett9784! We are so thankful for our place!! Trying not to do all at once. 😂
It is a very pretty area! Happy Sunday!
It sure is!! So so blessed!! Happy Sunday!!!
You need to take them out of the egg turner at day 18. Then put them flat on the bottom tray. And keep humidity high during the lockdown stage (last 3 days). The babies are beautiful! Hopefully you will have a better hatch rate next time with making these changes.
I’m so glad y’all came! It’s always good to see yall 🫶
Just soooo happy for us all
Yes!!!
Love, Love, LOVE THIS BUNCH!!!
And this bunch loves you!
You are so silly
LOL. Gotta make sure they know they are loved
