NEW HERE?
Thanks for stopping by our off grid cabin build channel. We recently moved from the city with all of its conveniences to the middle of the forest near Sandpoint, Idaho. On our channel, we are sharing our journey from grid life to an off-grid homesteading life. We are starting from scratch on bare land. I hope you will come and join us on this journey as we build our off grid cabin and establish our homestead. You can learn more about our story here • Why we Choose to Live ...

Im gonna suggest that you put more complex locks on that door. Racoons will likely be able to figure out the simple latches
🤡
Them trash pandas is smarter than your average bear!
As someone who is a pickup firefighter for a forest service, I appreciate your concern about not starting a forest fire and taking the weather, etc into consideration for your burn. Those dry trees are the perfect fuel for fires. Clearing out the dead trees are great for the ecosystem, but will also protect your structures. Wish more people were as thoughtful about their burn piles as you were. The kitties are so cute trying to "help." Excited to see the new projects getting started and can't wait to watch you all working on them. I really need to stop watching and get stuff done around my own property. 😀 For the chickies, you mentioned mascara which made me think of Cherry Bomb by the Runaways. Joan and Cherie!
All those standing dead trees would make for perfect firewood.
The "parked-out" area is going to be gorgeous! Get a nice lawn going and it'll be a beautiful walk to the shop. Don't forget about native wildflowers or native meadow flowers. That would look super nice each Spring too.
nAME FOR CHICKENS COULD BE lUNCH AND dINNER
Goldie and Dottie! Little hen names ❤
You all are hard working family.
That is Usome my friend
the way you all fixing your home stead. 🙏🎊🎉🙏
🌹❤🌹🙏🎊🎉🙏🇺🇸
Wow looks like it will be another wonderful building. Love the videos. How about Thelma and Louise for the girls. Glad to see Seth has healed and back having fun. Oh the dad jokes he says. Susan
❤
Was wondering how much land do y’all have? And the chicken house looks great. When Marty was talking about you starting out in the woods in tents was thinking have the wedding guests bring their tents and stay for the weekend? (Joking) Susan
Yes, I fast forwarded because it seems superfluous to getting the rest of the abode ready for the wedding.
yea its important to trim up heavily dense forests, because when the trees get too close together, light cant get through and the plant life below the canopy dies, so having your trees spread out a little just makes it much healthier for the ecosystem
Great job everyone. ❤❤ God Bless..
My daughter and I were working on our chicken house/yard yesterday and got mosquito bitten. You will be so happy when you can relax a bit.
❤
Great place for a church dance when it's finished
Charles and Camilla for the chicks, I’m in the UK and as you probably know we had the Kings coronation this weekend.
Scampi and Nugget. Those are my favorites. Especially when I'm hungry. 😁
😂
If you take your leaf blower at the base of the fire it will make it catch hold much easier
Safety Sally says wear the eye and ear protection when running the chainsaw Jules! Haha
As of May 1st we can start to open burn if we are closer than 150 from any forest or bushland here in Kentucky. I've got a lot of old wood to get burnt as soon as it stops raining after tomorrow. Love your videos as always.
Try using a leaf blower to get the fire going.
When you thin out that forest, you might consider chipping the wood. It makes a great driveway topping. Use it to cover walking paths so you never have to experience mud on the boots.
9:33 eye protection strongly recommended esp. cutting branches - better safe than sorry. Great vid as usual. Envious of the amount of land you guys have!
Hall and Oates, heckle and jeckle, sonny and Cher
A leaf blower works well to help get them going.
Good work family, it’s gonna serve so many purposes, like getting your garage back for parking in. And a place to park your tractor maybe.
halo pak martin.. sudah lama tidak lihat video nya pak martin dan keluarga.. semoga sehat dan bahagia selalu.. di tunggu video berikutnya ..
If you don’t want to burn maybe a chipper that way you could still use the wood stay safe there
You guys are great ! I lived similar experiences when back in Texas. Built 3 homes on bate land fantastic experience.
Very good off grid, how much CO2 went up with the burn? (: I am making fun of those that compute CO2 and love to punish the World. Mother Nature has a solution for CO2, it's callled trees. Peace and Love for your new barn/shop project and may all those that can attend the wedding have a safe and awesome journey.
I am noticing the comments stop about three days in. Have you consider splitting the video into two 10 minute chunks and delivering one on Monday and the other on Thursday? Just a thought.
love you guys! We are actually planning on moving out to the Sandpoint/ Naples area by next yr. currently looking for acreage! Can't wait to me you all. Mike
Larch is very durable; it would make good lumber.
The Golden Wyandottes, with their eye makeup, should be Mary Kaye and Avon :)
Really cool. I totally understand the need to prevent fire risk. It's just too bad so much carbon has to be released to do it. Is there some way to create a giant compost area at the far edge of the property to eventually end up with a rich soil additive. Maybe with a chipper to grind stuff down. Cool to see trees will be used to heat the house during winter.
Look in the woods behind Martin at 4:09 to 4:12. Your cat or a bigger one…interesting.
I was gonna say the same thing looks like a mountain lion, or a cougar
came here to say the same thing... Kinda spooky
GOOD EVENING
Such a great job today. Glad Seth is feeling better. 🙏🙏Blessing’s
My grandson named our Gold laced Wyandotte so she is Lacey
You need another two... Dorothy, Rose, Blanche and Sophia - the Golden Girls
You guys can mulch the trees and make walkways that won't muddy your footwear 😊
Wow! Huge clearing. Can't wait for the build. Looks good. Safety Sally is really doing a great job watching over you. Yahoo!
Martin you know you alone cant be playing with that toy and we all here waiting for our turn too 😂🤣😊😆
It's called "Pattern Control" Marty. ISO or SAE or as most put it, CAT or JD. I own a CAT, but I prefer the SAE/JD pattern.
Suucces with the new build.
You. All never cease to amaze us! So many skills. So much energy! So much enthusiasm!!!
Marty - Leaf blower to fan the fire.
Hey Marty and Julie. You guys should look at getting one of those torches that you use with a propane tank. They work good for getting a good fire going and keeping it going. The property is looking good. Thanks much for sharing.
21:52 You need to keep feeding the chickens medicated chicken starter for 8 months then you can start a layer mash, if you start with the layer any sooner it will mature their bodies to fast and they won't lay as long. Create a chicken run around the hen house so they can get use to the out side and the hen house.
Scrambled and sunny side up
Seems like Seth enjoys those Dad Jokes... LOL. Get used to it Seth..they never end. Never. Ever...
Opal and ruby go good with pearl
It takes longer to cut trees with the saw your using,you need a gas power saw instead.
Wilma and Betty... of Flintstones fame!
Hey bud how are y’all doin the only thing I can advise on burning is get a pump up sprayer
Wow it is really coming along! Love it
And I thought it was fog that was covering the valley. Nope it was the Johnsons. Haha!
My turn. I'm on the no. 3 Yanmar 11K excavator this week. I'm glad to see how much can be done with this size of machine. I tried opening that panel to see about switching it, but it's stuck closed. Looks like I'll be getting a burn permit. 😖
What doesn't burn you can easily bury. Y'all are rocking it. Been following since early in your camping experience. Lol. love you guys.
Great White Martin I was fishing but never saw one 🤔
😂
Rosè and merlot 😂for the name of the chickens .... cos theyre WINE dots 😂
Well I have to say Laverne and Shirley 😊 I think that would suit them 😊 Awesome job on the cleaning Marty❤️🇨🇦
@ 4:11 there is a big animal walking in the back ground.. I wonder what it is.. Too big for Tux or the cats🧐
I’ll be renting one of those babies in a few weeks when I make it back up to my property.
GOOD FIREWOOD THERE
1st one Chic and the 2nd one Ken..😊
Number two. Another project.
Names: Cordon Blue and Fricassee. 😊
Name the two chickens, Gracy and Tags. great job guy's on cutting and getting the trees ready to burn. lv from florida.

Really coming along😊😊
Wow maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan the fire was great Marty maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

Ester and Mustard
Pretty cool...getting closer and closer to a marriage date....nice surrounding ❤
Get a leaf blower and that will help
One of those Goldens should be called Cleo (short for Cleopatra), because of the eyeliner ;)
Goldie and Saffron
Love all the off grid living consept and watch it alot here on youtube , but one thing thats like silver lining on most offgrid channels .
Is that you guys down prioritise the siding just leave the house wrap to the elements wich isnt ment to be .
I WANT TO BUILD A 100' X 100' GARDEN WHEN I GET MY PROPERTY IN NORTH IDAHO THIS SUMMER

Guys this is amazing 👍 love every video you release about the homestead 👍👍
Damai, tentram dan nyaman sekali mempunyai rumah dengan halaman yang luas seperti ini, impian rumah saya banget tidak perlu rumah yang bertingkat-tingkat..
Nugget and Fillet...
you could try Amber and Aura for the two chickens.
The control changes it from "Cat" or "Deer" i learned on Cat so it n8ce to have the option to change it on machines
When are these guys planning to finish the exterior of their house?
Check with logging companies that will benefit them and you. They might be able to $ you for clearing woods
Nice Demo Ranch shirt
Sheba and Cleo.
The new barn will be an awesome addition to ya'lls homestead, and helping to clear standing deadwood is a benefit as well. The chicken coop is looking sassy Jules, but I usually don't name my food...lol 😂😅 Love ya'll ❤
Lucy and Ethel
Just called and the birds they're going to wind up in the freezer in the way aren't they?
Great Job guys!!!
