    Leuk om te zien wat jullie al allemaal hebben gedaan. Leven, kinderen en gezondheid zijn belangrijk en kosten veel tijd. Excuseer je minder voor de rommel die er nog is.
    Bedenk: je hebt 2 handen, 1 lijf en 1x tijd. en wat vooral belangrijk is, is genieten van waar je woont.
    Ik woon sinds 14 jaar in het centrum van Frankrijk, alleen, en doe wat ik kan en probeer net als jullie zoveel mogelijk self suffient te zijn. En daarbij niet te vergeten dat je ook nog geniet van je leven.
    We hebben tenslotte een beslissing genomen om te vertrekken en een nieuwe uitdaging aan te gaan. En ons leven radicaal om te gooien. Ik heb nog geen dag spijt van dat ik ben vertrokken. Genieten van elke dag. Ik ben trots op jullie.

    Thank you so much for sharing......I can't believe it's 5 years already! Feels like just yesterday watching the yurt, outdoor kitchen & shed going up. Interestingly enough, you are not the only Portuguese homesteader who thinks that the fertiliser/compost was inferior - resulting in not so good crops this year. Also, how many fox attacks on chickens.....
    Cannot wait to see what you guys have planned.

    • @ourportuguesehomestead
      @ourportuguesehomestead  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That is interesting! One of the reasons I was apprehensive about raised beds and no dig is not being able to get good compost, and annoyingly that turned out to be true. I'll get a different brand next time. We lost 4 chickens this spring, she took them very quietly one by one while they were free ranging.

You have done a good job and considering that you are not farmers by profession, you have moved forward successfully. Your future for you and your children looks very bright I think and I too live in the countryside on an old farm in central Sweden. I enjoy the peace and seclusion and the opportunity to grow vegetables, potatoes and keep small animals such as chickens and ducks. Greetings, Sven

    Make a fertilizer with 1 gallon of water and banana peel, overnight, then throw the peel away, pur evenly to all your tomatoes once a month, your tomatoes will flourish, potatoes love it too, it's potasium, also wood ash helps soil, in the Spring, like manure, BEFORE The growing Season, not too much of either so you don't burn the plant or trees,

    For the pond, you probably need only a simple contraption to prevent water from draining out. In my mind you only need a high enough vertical concrete pipe cemented to the stone pipe that fills your pond. That way, when the pressure of water in the stone pipe is high enough, water can flow overflow out of the top of the pipe and into the pond. But, when the pressure in the stone pipe drops and the water dries up, the vertical pipe will prevent all the water from draining. A bit like putting a pipe in your sink drain to prevent it from fully draining
    Hope it makes sense, otherwise I can add a sketch next time :)

    • @ourportuguesehomestead
      @ourportuguesehomestead  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I understand what you mean, but I don't think it'll work. We've tried to plug the hole with cement before and the water just found a way around. It would be the same with a pipe.

    • @SiviVolk2
      @SiviVolk2 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@ourportuguesehomestead I see, quite a complicated situation apparently. It might be worth trying still as the water can easily break the cement when the pressure builds up in the underground tube, but the pressure is quite small he other when the water flows way around (pressure in the pond is small). I am of course guessing here and who knows. Good luck anways :)

  • @patricbeer
    @patricbeer 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    In order to make a pond that retains water, you need to let the water half a meter stand for about 5 days and then you need you shake the slick with the excavator. I learned it from Sepp Holzer

Rather then you just trim or cut the grass and just waste it , to me it's better you give to your animal ...and it will become more and more every year , you can sell it as extra income or cut it for Christmas cook ...!

    I saw this and searched for more from you! Think you changed a bit since you moved to Portugal and on this video you are really looking like a Portuguese woman 😮 I think you are now officially a Dona!

      I need to disclaim that I am myself Portuguese living in the United Kingdom! For too many years 😢

      Think years ago I watched one of your first videos, where you were living in a van? In the winter where there’s snow?? Not sure was yours ! ❤much love and respect!✊

      We did live in our camper on the land for some time, but it never snows here so must have been someone else :)

      It’s a bummer looking at it every day 😅 But we see a light at the end of the tunnel .

    I loved the tour and I related with several things you spoke and explain. I love seeing you in your videos and the way you live life. I know this is only an online video effect (didn't find better words for it), but I feel as I know you already! Of course if I would cross with you in real life it would be strange and even awkward (I'm a shy and introverted person). 😅 I could write here forever so I'll end it here. I truly admire you for your strength and determination in what you're doing. ❤

    Merhaba, dilinizi anlamadım ama arazi büyük, gelecek için bir çiftlik planladığınızı tahmin ediyorum. Şimdiden başarılar dilerim. Türkiye'den sevgiler.
