I love your honesty . Only we can do what's best for our family. I b have made major changes to become self reliant. Watched many Homestead channels. To achieve the knowledge I needed to make my changes.
My husband and I saw this years ago. We left the Los Angeles are in 1968. My family nor our friends could believe we'd leave Southern California for the state of Iowa. "You can't make the money there that you can here. The winters are atrocious." The statements were true but when my father said, "Why don't you stay here, make good money and go to Iowa on vacation", I tried telling him that we wanted the full year of living rural and seeing what it was like, not just 2 weeks a year. We weren't hippies going back to the land thinking we could feed and clothes ourselves. We knew better. We worked our jobs because we needed money to live but we also bought an acreage and had animals, gardens, etc. I learned to can, freeze, dehydrate, etc. We've been here 55 years now and never been sorry we made the move. Yes, people if you want this life, you can do it. We were poor as church mice for a number of years, BUT we were also young and in love and had a ball leaning all the new and totally different things. We don't work like we did BUT we don't have to because we made the move while we were young and strong. Now we're old, 76 and 79, but it's been a great life and well worth all the effort it took to get where we are today. Not rich, absolutely not, but debt free, and still living the good life.
God bless you & your husband, I wish so many people would wake up to what's going on in our country, We live in South Texas, and everything has gone up in prices & continue daily if not weekly , I'm 58 , my husband is 60 , Thank goodness we moved to Texas almost 16 years ago , got our home & land very reasonable, now houses like ours are crazy priced and the interest rate is just as bad , People like us are having a hard time paying our electricity bills , $335 this month were 2 years ago our bills were never over $145 . Food prices , Gas , every day items have doubled if not tripled , I started preparing years ago , being raised by my wonderful grandmother who lived through the depression and my father a Vietnam veteran, I taught my children to fish , garden , hunt and save, if you can't pay with cash DONT BUY IT . OUR COUNTRY IS IN BAD SHAPE !!! ALL IN LESS THEN 2 YEARS . PLUS what our State is flipping the bill with our taxes to try & protect our country . I could go on forever. But I know you see it . I just wanted to say congratulations on n 55 years and God bless you Mrs josette Tharp Montgomery County, Texas 🙏 ❤🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
@@jtharp9265 My husband said back in the 60's that the country couldn't keep on with the debt and would have to begin paying it back some day. He was wrong, I guess. All these years later and we're still spending and getting deeper in debt. Someday, surely, the chickens will come home to roost but I doubt it affects my husband and I too much. However, our children and grandchildren may have a steep price to pay. God bless you and yours too.
I remember when you and Jen moved to this property. You had trouble with some people that you had to secure your property for your protection. I'm so sorry you guys are still dealing with some problems or lawsuits. Stay strong we love you guys and keep you in our prayers. And you are right, if you believe strongly in something. Stand strong for it.
Don't worry about the haters!! Only you know what is best for your family... you do what is best for y'all. love your videos. I love watching your vidoes, and im sure there are so many more out here that love u. There will always be haters because they think they are "keyboard heros, but more like they are keyboard bullies"!!! Please dont focus on them, thats what they want!!! We love you guys keep doing what your doing. You are making a difference!!!
As someone who went through a lawsuit I’ll give you the advice that was given to us. “This too shall pass; it might feel like a kidney stone, but it will pass”
I told my 31 year old son the other day, if I had to do anything all over, I would have home schooled you and your brother. Now their kids are in public school and live miles away from me. Wish I would have done differently, but the Lord forgives me and I try to be the most Godly mom and grandmother possible at this point❤️🙏🏻
You had me at 20:18...damn right it is a cult. I get looked at like I'm crazy when I'm at work, coming in at 3am to cover shifts, talking about how I cant wait to be able to just be HOME. I get met with comments like "Well Christine some of us have to work for a living..." My response? Oh I'll work for my living, but I'll be working for MYSELF at home, sunrise to sunset I'll be working my tail off because that's what I am called to do. That day will come, I pray it every single day. Thank you for posting this. We cant wait to see you guys at HOA!
Oh Zac, I know exactly what you and Jen are going through. Been through it myself and it lasted 10 years in court before I finally won my case. I represented myself in my case. It was blood sucking my mental state dry. Sleepless nights, serious migraines every day and even lasting for days continually. The fight I have to say, was worth it. It made me tougher, stronger and much more aware of my surroundings and the zombies in it. I gained a ton of knowledge during that lawsuit. If was tough I grant you that. When it first began, I had no idea what I was doing but I learned quickly. It was like going to law school in a self taught situation but never obtaining a degree. I even had a mini stroke during the process probably caused by massive stress. I couldn’t afford a lawyer so I had to learn. No options. Mine ended up in. Trial by 12 jurors with a unanimous vote in my favor and a huge million dollar award. My case was decimation with malicious intent. That’s a tough one to win and she even had a lawyer. So buddy, if I can do it, you can too. I have faith in you that God will stand beside you in these troubled times. Just keep your faith strong and know that you and Jen are much loved and respected. I will keep you all in my prayers brother. We love you and know you will come out of this a better, stronger person.
You should know, you don’t have to stay with that lawyer. They are a dime a dz so shop around for a new one and dismiss this one if he’s not working the way you want him to. Remember, he works for YOU! When my case was over, I was exhausted so I hired a contingent lawyer to collect my award. At first it was good but as time went on during the collection process, he got cocky, lazy and greedy. It was a big mistake hiring him. I did most of the leg work and travel. He still got his and then some. If I ever have to go through it again, god forbid, I’ll learn and do it all myself. I refuse to be taken advantage of again now that I know what I didn’t know before!
I agree completely with you. Please don't loose your joy. You and Jen have each other and your children and that's everything. We've all experienced really bad times and so many people want to think the worse. I've found prayer works and helps keep your joy.
Concerning the lawsuit. The sun will shine again. Not today, not tomorrow, and possibly not the next. However, the sun will shine again. So stinking proud of you and Jen and your family. Press on. BLESSINGS!!!
YES OOOHHH YES we are supporting you both and your children. Don't let go. I homeschooled mine in the 1970's The homeschooling kids turn out to be the brightest. Well rounded, besy in math, spelling, excellent readers, so stay brave. We love you all.
I hate that you guys are going through this😢 People can be so mean. Just because people share THEIR LIVES, doesn’t give anyone the right to, even really, VOICE their opinion, unless they are asked too. Zack & Jen are sharing their lives, if they want to sell anything or buy anything, we should be happy they made a choice that helps THEM. PS: I am BEYOND happy we are “pure bloods” and praying for all the others🙏🙏🙏 * STAY AWAY FROM THE ZOMBIES!!!
You are so right about the Rockefeller CULT - I have stepped outside of that and I intend to stay there. I am 77 years old and, like my dear departed Father, I simply MARCH TO A DIFFERENT DRUMMER.
From my home to yours, Zach and Jenn, thanks for sharing your reality. We respect the path you've chosen and, y'all are in our prayers....and now we know to send up a prayer for Stivers Homestead, that the Lord make a way where there is no way with regard to your lingering concern. P.S. love the little pumpkins!
My oldest son is a Senior this year and wants to finish high school at his public school and I can understand this. But I pulled my other kids out and it has been the best thing ever. It’s definitely an adjustment, but I’m seeing for myself what a difference it makes. We will keep your family in our prayers. Life never ceases to throw things at you (all of us). Keep strong. And thank you for sharing your lives with us.
So sorry you are having to jump through all the hassle with a lawsuit. Prayers for you and your family that it will be resolved soon and the property can be your forever property
I remember years ago when you first moved to this property speaking about some people showing up and harassing you and having to have Jen hide the kids. When you started talking about the lawsuit over the land these was jogged in my memory. Prayers for you and your family. God will see you through this.
Maybe this property isn't the place for you. You all don't seem happy anymore and you always seem to be sick lately. Stress can bring on illness. Hope you find your true happiness soon. Life is too short to be miserable and stressed. PS some people are very happy following the " Roosevelt way". Nothing less stressful than knowing you have a steady income and health insurance and a 401 to fall back on in your older days .We worked hard, retired early and have steady income due to the Roosevelt way. As far as cults, well we have two prominent cults in the USA, The Republican and The Democratic party. Nothing but two bad cults
Yes we did, we didn’t take anything either and so far we made it. We will not take anything this go around either. People need to realize our home is our home, no one else. God Bless you and Jen and the kids. We are on you side, keep going strong. God will take care of everything.
You are so right! We homeschooled when it wasn’t popular with no support from family except from my father who agreed that the school system has broke down and caused family division and ignorance with government dependency. You are on the right track, keep up,the good work and keep moving forward. He is your rewarder. Hugs, love, and lots of prayers from Texas!
I can totally relate. We have been in a land lawsuit for nearly 5 years now....the original judge ruled against us....however we appealed and the appeals court reversed that decision....but they are motioning to have the appeals court to reconsidered.....it is stressful. My prayers will certainly be with you.
Back in the early 80's my parents neighbor sued them. They lived out in the country on 5 acre plots. And the neighbor sued because my dad built his shop. It was to store his construction companies tools ect. They said my dad was doing commercial on a residential property. But my dad didn't work out of there. And none of his employees worked there. They worked on the job sites they were building or remodeling. This lawsuit really took a toll on my Dad. In the end. My parents win the lawsuit. And the funny thing about it all. Was my parents homeowners insurance paid all their legal fees during the lawsuit. Then after they won. The neighbor had to pay all my parents law fees. And they had to work for years to pay it all back. So karma struck again. 😊😊 check to see if your homeowners insurance will pay your law fees too.
We stood up last time, and we will continue to stand up as they are trying to shut us down again with mandates. Still trying to push their agenda! Change does begin at home ❤
"You have to make changes at home to make YOUR life better." Wise words. ^^^ Sorry that you've had to go through all of this. I can see the fatigue and how draining it is on your spirit. I hope when you come out on the other side, you all can have a sense of peace. Don't let anyone or the lawsuit steal your joy. Also, I want to say I appreciate your channel and the effort you and Jen have put into it to help others. Thank you. 😊
Preach Brother Zach! Yes, we live in a society of zombies/sheep. As I’m sitting here with “the Vid” I just ordered my first set of tinctures from yall. Hope you feel better soon. Jenn has your back! Squeeze on each other because no matter what life throws at you, you still have each other and that’s better than any typical paycheck can provide.
I chose to vaccinate but that was my decision. Both my kids do not do the 9 to 5 jobs and my family wonders why. I am happy that they are doing what makes them happy.
100% ACCEPT AND CARRY THE 💖LOVE💖(YOUR SUBCRIBERS) ARE GIFTING YOU AND THE 💖ENERGY LIGHT💖 THAT (YOUR SUBSCRIBERS) ARE GIFTING YOU, AND LET IT EMPOWER YOUR FAMILY... CARRY IT ALL WITH YOU ALL IN EVERY MINUTE OF EACH OF YOUR DAY!!!YOU LITTLE FAMILY ARE BLESSED! YOU LITTLE FAMILY ARE EMPOWERED! YOU HAVE ALREADY WON!!!❤ WITH SO MUCH LOVE AND ADMIRATION, ❤VICTORIA❤
Stay strong ..I have been there a couple of times.,people want easy pay .. at least in my experience I seen that twice!!! And yes it brings me Down when it got close….prayers for strength and guidance ✝️🙏🏽💜
You're brain fog might not be as "off" as you think it is. After all it was FDR that started us down the social program road. Thank you for the pumpkin talk. We all need to stand first for ourselves and then for each other. And to speak up so we know we're not alone.
Don’t give up!! Hang in there!!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕 We all need to remember WE are in the MAJORITY! That’s were change happens. It’s time to dump the tea people!
Amen Zach. Here we go again. Taking a stand for our faith and against tyranny. Praying for a boomerang in the situation _ what the enemy means for evil will return to them. I pray protection and provision for all who call on the name of Jesus. Glad you’re on the mend. Thank you for these kind of talks.
What ! Not sure where all that was heading , but we all can make choices . Maybe not everyone sees things the same way. Whatever you choose to do , you live with . We choose to work and take care of our family . That's our plan . Our kids are still in school we have not had any of the problems here in our small town . If we do we will make another plan , but I would never tell anyone else how they should live . Sorry maybe i missed the point.
I just started this video but I want to weigh in really quick on the "shorts". I see the trend toward shorts and I enjoy them before bed time, for sure. BUT I stayed with youtube (even tho I HATE them for heavy scensoring) because there are still people I want to learn from. You guys are one of my go to channels! I'm so happy to hear you say that you won't only do shorts! ❤ Also, I'm sorry that you're going through so much. It seems like life isn't giving a lot of breaks these days. I've said a prayer that your family starts feeling the joy again. You got this, Stivers Family!
I'm expressing this with the deepest respect, but I have to say that it seems a bit perplexing to me that in the very video in which you are telling everyone to not bend to the forces trying to change everyone, you admit to filming YT shorts, which, in my opinion, is being forced by YT onto the creators, to eventually leave nothing but short videos for the viewer, in return dumbing down society as a whole and shortening everyone's attention span. I started my own YT channel recently, and I refuse to film any shorts for this very reason. You're being manipulated into filming shorts, IMO! Much love. ✌✌✌
@januarysdaughter6664 I have been a follower for years. He has to bring in money for his Family. Other youtube homsteads have had to do the same. Why are you picking on him?
Zach you and Jen are two wonderful people. Your children are beautiful and precious. Y’all are such a beautiful blessing. Stay the warriors path and GOD in your minds, hearts, and souls, and he will take care of everything. 🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You are very wise! God bless and protect you! Isaiah 54-17 Psalm 91 and 13 it’s definitely time for a change. It’s kind of ironic their planned demic just made folks realize how they have been enslaving us and now we are realizing the control as well and folks are waking up and are tired of it. It’s all illegal and goes against our constitutional rights. God protect us! Wished we could sit and have coffee. I am 55 and I am so thankful for this turning point. God is calling his people to stand up against this evil! This was never his plan for us. God bless you Wendy🎄
Zach, you and your family bring us Joy and Hope. Your always so Honest, care-ing, encouraging and hopeful. You care. You teach. Thank You for being You. I will pray this lawsuit-whatever it is-is over soon and in your favor. Personally I can't see any reason for this to be happening to you all. Best Wishes.
I appreciate y'all so much for all to do to show and tell us about your lives. My only issue about not being able to homeschool my daughter, is that her father is no way on board with it. He doesn't understand how better it could be and I'm stuck in a situation because I don't want my daughter to be in the middle. Her dad and I are divorced so it makes it really difficult. That's my only reason why I haven't yet. Love y'all!
I love the word of God. Here is an excerpt from Psalm 35 (NIV). It's too long to post the full thing here, but highly encourage you to read it today and be blessed. God is fighting for you. Side note, my devo today says that the Hebrew word translated "contend" is two-dimensional. It refers to both physical combat and verbal combat. So it runs the gamut from cage fighting to courtrooms. Contend, Lord, with those who contend with me; fight against those who fight against me. 2 Take up shield and armor; arise and come to my aid. 3 Brandish spear and javelin[a] against those who pursue me. Say to me, “I am your salvation.” 4 May those who seek my life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plot my ruin be turned back in dismay. 5 May they be like chaff before the wind, with the angel of the Lord driving them away; 6 may their path be dark and slippery, with the angel of the Lord pursuing them.
Life is never easy for those who love the Lord. My mom called all her troubles and illnesses Growing Pains. I’m 78 and have been through my share of those Growing Pains but light and love conquers all. Be safe, happy, and keep enjoying every little moment knowing that joy eventually comes in the morning! God Bless You All!
Zach, I knew something was up, because you and Jen just seemed to stop running the farm all of a sudden. It became dried up, if you will. But, God has a way of working these complicated issues out. Just keep working. Don’t give up the farm!! I know things will be ok if you just keep plugging along and do all the necessary things to thrive. We love you out here! ♥️🙏🏼♥️
We pulled our daughter out of public school in second grade, pulled her out of private school in third grade, and homeschooled after that. She’s an amazing, levelheaded young woman now. We never regretted it once.
So true Zach. Love ya'll and the channel. I just purchased my very first raised beds. I got 3 and it's just my husband and I, but I'm so excited for what I can do for myself and our little family.
Put your faith in God. He promises to protect you - that no weapon formed against you will prosper. He doesn't promise life will be free from care or setbacks but He makes beauty of ashes. If you are going through a trial, it is to draw you nearer to Him - He is using these things to guide your path to prosper you. It never seems like that when you go through illness or financial hardship - but don't waiver in your faith, keep paying your tithes and stand on the promises of His Word. Been thru so much and received many miracles - had an entire lawyer firm coming against making false statements to break - hold your ground. Don't waiver. Remember who your God is. Give it over to Him and you will be victorious through Him. God bless your family.
Good lord you people are sick or under the weather more often not. Excuses, excuses ,excuses you all may have bad choices no one fault but your own. Own it and Pull up your britches make new choices and move on
My personal opinion is I don't like this type of video, HOWEVER, who gives a rip? I am not a regular viewer so I am not in your demographic.so you do you. All my opinion means is we are all human beings who have things that set us out as individuals, not that you or I are lesser people for it. But I still periodically watch a video of yours and some I have felt positive about. I'm just not a fan of talking about subjects without talking about them. One example is you giving an update on some mysterious lawsuit but you refuse to identify what type of lawsuit but then you give little hints. You totally have a right to keep as much about your life private as you want to. Having social media doesn't mean we are entitled to every aspect of your life. But it is like telling a child you have a surprise in your pocket but you aren't going to tell them what it is but then you proceed to give them hints when their interest wanes. Oh, yeah it's something you can eat. Interest wanes. Oh yeah it's sweet and so on. Just enough to keep them coming back in hopes that the next video you might tell them what it's about. Too bad what you have in your pocket is a cinnamon glazed grasshopper with some po let lint that the kid probably wouldn't want to eat anyway. If you want to keep something private just don't talk about it. If after it is settled you want to talk about it then do so. You do have lots of good knowledge to share that people will find useful, entertaining or just give someone the warm fuzzies because it feels like family. When you're hardworking, good people you can stand on that. JMO
I got sick with the 19 November before it became a thing. Months I fought it, I eventually put oregano oil in my nebulizer and bought a ionic pro air filter that outs out ozone in my room..I was better in a week. I now use essential oils in a diffuser in my room every night and have not been sick since. We also take a dose of iver...and start painting iodine on our necks by our thyroid glands, it absorbs in minutes we are so deficient, to counteract radiation sickness every time we feel a bit scratchy. Don't forget selenium with the iodine.
Zach and Jen. Listen! You are blessed and children of the most high God. Give it to God He will fight your battles for you. He will keep you.. I love you guys so much! My heartbreaks for your situation . Hugs and kisses and lots of prayers ❤❤❤💜💜💜🙏🙏🙏🙏 thanks for healing a bunch of hurt ankles etc with Gods gifts to us.
Thank you! This is what I've been saying. Your words reminded me of one of my favorite songs, Dream Small. My motto always is "BE the change". You can't change the world, you can only change yourself. Then share what you've learned and that will radiate out into the world. Rest, feel better. You are all in my prayers.
Re. Roosevelt vs Rockefeller You may not have meant to say Roosevelt, but it still fits. F.D. Roosevelt had 3 terms in office, and started a lot of public works programs. A lot of people hailed him as a hero for that, but others said his actions prolonged the Great Depression by as long as 7 years as well as setting us on a pathway of dependence on social programs and government to "save" everyone. We see some of the effects of that today, and the current administration is doing things that are going to have a long lasting impact prolonging the economic challenges of our time. It's often been said that people on farms were not as impacted by the Depression as people in cities partly because they were able to raise their own food. That was true of some of my ancestors who lived a modest farm life. On the other side of the family, my immigrant grandparents and great grandparents who arrived in America just before the Depression had the challenges of losing their home, living in a boarding house, working during the day and going to night school to learn English, and in the case of my grandmother, being excited when her mother would "give her a quarter to go buy some ground beef." They didn't always have meat. Anyway, Roosevelt fit even if that was the name you meant to say.
So sorry for you and your family for what you have been going through. I pray that the outcome is in your favor. You have a wonderful and loving wife and beautiful children. God will guide you and Jenn. Praying for you all. ❤
I took the shots that was required due to my sister was in the hospital and no one could get in unless we were vaccinated, the only reason i did what i was needed .Your doing yalls best hang in there .😊😊😊

Very inspiring....
God bless you & your husband, I wish so many people would wake up to what's going on in our country,
We live in South Texas, and everything has gone up in prices & continue daily if not weekly ,
I'm 58 , my husband is 60 ,
Thank goodness we moved to Texas almost 16 years ago , got our home & land very reasonable, now houses like ours are crazy priced and the interest rate is just as bad ,
People like us are having a hard time paying our electricity bills , $335 this month were 2 years ago our bills were never over $145 .
Food prices , Gas , every day items have doubled if not tripled ,
I started preparing years ago , being raised by my wonderful grandmother who lived through the depression and my father a Vietnam veteran,
I taught my children to fish , garden , hunt and save, if you can't pay with cash DONT BUY IT .
OUR COUNTRY IS IN BAD SHAPE !!! ALL IN LESS THEN 2 YEARS .
PLUS what our State is flipping the bill with our taxes to try & protect our country .
I could go on forever.
But I know you see it .
I just wanted to say congratulations on n 55 years and God bless you

Change starts at home.... that's why I watch you. So many people cry the victim instead of doing something about it.
We homeschooled for 13 years, best decision we ever made. We produced 3 God loving, very productive, successful adults.
I told my 31 year old son the other day, if I had to do anything all over, I would have home schooled you and your brother. Now their kids are in public school and live miles away from me. Wish I would have done differently, but the Lord forgives me and I try to be the most Godly mom and grandmother possible at this point❤️🙏🏻

Oh I'll work for my living, but I'll be working for MYSELF at home, sunrise to sunset I'll be working my tail off because that's what I am called to do. That day will come, I pray it every single day. Thank you for posting this. We cant wait to see you guys at HOA!
I did all of that for 25 years...homeschooled my son who is brilliant and now has a PhD and is living off his own land now.....best way to live
Right on! Stand for Truth! Have Faith! Pray for Guidance! Trust God! God Bless America!
Dang, y'all. Hope all the crappy stuff resolves soon. Stand strong, like always.
Exactly! Hang in there!
Praying!! You're not alone!! You know what you're doing!! Go with God! An 81 yr old is behind you all the way.
Oh Zac, I know exactly what you and Jen are going through. Been through it myself and it lasted 10 years in court before I finally won my case. I represented myself in my case. It was blood sucking my mental state dry. Sleepless nights, serious migraines every day and even lasting for days continually. The fight I have to say, was worth it. It made me tougher, stronger and much more aware of my surroundings and the zombies in it. I gained a ton of knowledge during that lawsuit. If was tough I grant you that.

Trial by 12 jurors with a unanimous vote in my favor and a huge million dollar award.
My case was decimation with malicious intent. That’s a tough one to win and she even had a lawyer.
So buddy, if I can do it, you can too. I have faith in you that God will stand beside you in these troubled times. Just keep your faith strong and know that you and Jen are much loved and respected. I will keep you all in my prayers brother. We love you and know you will come out of this a better, stronger person.
I’m going through one now and my lawyer acts like I should just be living my best damn life. These lawyers are blood sucking, arrogant and clueless.
You should know, you don’t have to stay with that lawyer. They are a dime a dz so shop around for a new one and dismiss this one if he’s not working the way you want him to. Remember, he works for YOU!
When my case was over, I was exhausted so I hired a contingent lawyer to collect my award. At first it was good but as time went on during the collection process, he got cocky, lazy and greedy. It was a big mistake hiring him. I did most of the leg work and travel. He still got his and then some. If I ever have to go through it again, god forbid, I’ll learn and do it all myself. I refuse to be taken advantage of again now that I know what I didn’t know before!
I agree completely with you. Please don't loose your joy. You and Jen have each other and your children and that's everything. We've all experienced really bad times and so many people want to think the worse. I've found prayer works and helps keep your joy.
We have to stand up for ourselves. Be brave. Thanks for this talk!
I’m so sorry you all are having to go through this 😢.
Times and people are very toxic. We all need to speak up and fight for a different way to live. Well said thank you!
Concerning the lawsuit. The sun will shine again. Not today, not tomorrow, and possibly not the next. However, the sun will shine again. So stinking proud of you and Jen and your family. Press on. BLESSINGS!!!
YES OOOHHH YES we are supporting you both and your children. Don't let go. I homeschooled mine in the 1970's The homeschooling kids turn out to be the brightest. Well rounded, besy in math, spelling, excellent readers, so stay brave. We love you all.
@@angelawebb6987amen 🙏
Don't let this steal your joy! You have so many people that love you guys hang in there!
I hate that you guys are going through this😢
People can be so mean. Just because people share THEIR LIVES, doesn’t give anyone the right to, even really, VOICE their opinion, unless they are asked too. Zack & Jen are sharing their lives, if they want to sell anything or buy anything, we should be happy they made a choice that helps THEM.
PS: I am BEYOND happy we are “pure bloods” and praying for all the others🙏🙏🙏 * STAY AWAY FROM THE ZOMBIES!!!
You guys keep doing what you’re doing! The devil strikes when you’re low, stay strong! Your true fans will be there for you ❤🙏
DO NOT COMPLY! 🤠
You are so right about the Rockefeller CULT - I have stepped outside of that and I intend to stay there. I am 77 years old and, like my dear departed Father, I simply MARCH TO A DIFFERENT DRUMMER.
You're totally right-- it IS a cult, and I am not a part of it, I am a child of God. He is my provider, He is my faith... God bless you!
From my home to yours, Zach and Jenn, thanks for sharing your reality. We respect the path you've chosen and, y'all are in our prayers....and now we know to send up a prayer for Stivers Homestead, that the Lord make a way where there is no way with regard to your lingering concern. P.S. love the little pumpkins!
My oldest son is a Senior this year and wants to finish high school at his public school and I can understand this. But I pulled my other kids out and it has been the best thing ever. It’s definitely an adjustment, but I’m seeing for myself what a difference it makes.
We will keep your family in our prayers. Life never ceases to throw things at you (all of us). Keep strong. And thank you for sharing your lives with us.
So sorry you are having to jump through all the hassle with a lawsuit. Prayers for you and your family that it will be resolved soon and the property can be your forever property
I’m sorry to hear that I hope this get resolved soon. I will pray for you all.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I remember years ago when you first moved to this property speaking about some people showing up and harassing you and having to have Jen hide the kids. When you started talking about the lawsuit over the land these was jogged in my memory. Prayers for you and your family. God will see you through this.
Maybe this property isn't the place for you. You all don't seem happy anymore and you always seem to be sick lately. Stress can bring on illness. Hope you find your true happiness soon. Life is too short to be miserable and stressed.
PS some people are very happy following the " Roosevelt way". Nothing less stressful than knowing you have a steady income and health insurance and a 401 to fall back on in your older days .We worked hard, retired early and have steady income due to the Roosevelt way. As far as cults, well we have two prominent cults in the USA, The Republican and The Democratic party. Nothing but two bad cults
It took 5 years of litigation to get through all of our property issues. Good luck and lots of prayers that your situation goes well.
Yes we did, we didn’t take anything either and so far we made it. We will not take anything this go around either. People need to realize our home is our home, no one else. God Bless you and Jen and the kids. We are on you side, keep going strong. God will take care of everything.
Zach and Jen, you are such fine people. Thank you for this video. It is so important for people to follow their heart…
Sending prayers that this lawsuit will come to a beneficial conclusion for your family and that you get feeling better soon🙏
DONT EVER SAY UR SICK...SAY UR HEALING...WORDS MATTER!!!
I hope that you and Jen know that your words don't fall on deaf ears. It is such a blessing to watch and listen to your channel. ❤
You are so right! We homeschooled when it wasn’t popular with no support from family except from my father who agreed that the school system has broke down and caused family division and ignorance with government dependency. You are on the right track, keep up,the good work and keep moving forward. He is your rewarder. Hugs, love, and lots of prayers from Texas!
I can totally relate. We have been in a land lawsuit for nearly 5 years now....the original judge ruled against us....however we appealed and the appeals court reversed that decision....but they are motioning to have the appeals court to reconsidered.....it is stressful. My prayers will certainly be with you.
Praying for you all. God is all powerful. Keep on being real
Back in the early 80's my parents neighbor sued them. They lived out in the country on 5 acre plots. And the neighbor sued because my dad built his shop. It was to store his construction companies tools ect. They said my dad was doing commercial on a residential property. But my dad didn't work out of there. And none of his employees worked there. They worked on the job sites they were building or remodeling. This lawsuit really took a toll on my Dad. In the end. My parents win the lawsuit. And the funny thing about it all. Was my parents homeowners insurance paid all their legal fees during the lawsuit. Then after they won. The neighbor had to pay all my parents law fees. And they had to work for years to pay it all back. So karma struck again. 😊😊 check to see if your homeowners insurance will pay your law fees too.
U sell all those remedies but u and ur family always sick,hmmmm
Thanks for the Truth Talk! Yes, we need to break out of the Roosevelt model. Good luck in your lawsuit!
We stood up last time, and we will continue to stand up as they are trying to shut us down again with mandates. Still trying to push their agenda! Change does begin at home ❤
"You have to make changes at home to make YOUR life better."
Wise words. ^^^
Sorry that you've had to go through all of this. I can see the fatigue and how draining it is on your spirit. I hope when you come out on the other side, you all can have a sense of peace. Don't let anyone or the lawsuit steal your joy.
Also, I want to say I appreciate your channel and the effort you and Jen have put into it to help others. Thank you. 😊
#1. LOVE the blue pumpkins!
#2.
I am SOOOO sorry that you are experiencing a lawsuit.
Praying for a great outcome for your family.
Love you guys…..
Preach Brother Zach! Yes, we live in a society of zombies/sheep. As I’m sitting here with “the Vid” I just ordered my first set of tinctures from yall. Hope you feel better soon. Jenn has your back! Squeeze on each other because no matter what life throws at you, you still have each other and that’s better than any typical paycheck can provide.
🙏🏻
I chose to vaccinate but that was my decision. Both my kids do not do the 9 to 5 jobs and my family wonders why. I am happy that they are doing what makes them happy.

Just standing is doing something, all comes with a price. It Is worth it
I am sorry your family is going thru the lawsuit. Keep your heads up, you all are great!
Stay strong ..I have been there a couple of times.,people want easy pay .. at least in my experience I seen that twice!!!
And yes it brings me Down when it got close….prayers for strength and guidance ✝️🙏🏽💜
You're brain fog might not be as "off" as you think it is. After all it was FDR that started us down the social program road. Thank you for the pumpkin talk. We all need to stand first for ourselves and then for each other. And to speak up so we know we're not alone.
Zack I am sorry for what you and Jen are going through. I love your message here!
New subscriber from Mississippi, I have a old log cabin in Sevierville hope i can meet you one day
Much respect, glad to stand with you
Don’t give up!! Hang in there!!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕
We all need to remember WE are in the MAJORITY! That’s were change happens. It’s time to dump the tea people!
Amen Zach. Here we go again. Taking a stand for our faith and against tyranny. Praying for a boomerang in the situation _ what the enemy means for evil will return to them. I pray protection and provision for all who call on the name of Jesus. Glad you’re on the mend. Thank you for these kind of talks.
Amen....glad you can put into words what a great number of people feel.!!!! Keep on keepin on!!!
What ! Not sure where all that was heading , but we all can make choices . Maybe not everyone sees things the same way. Whatever you choose to do , you live with . We choose to work and take care of our family . That's our plan . Our kids are still in school we have not had any of the problems here in our small town . If we do we will make another plan , but I would never tell anyone else how they should live . Sorry maybe i missed the point.
I just started this video but I want to weigh in really quick on the "shorts". I see the trend toward shorts and I enjoy them before bed time, for sure. BUT I stayed with youtube (even tho I HATE them for heavy scensoring) because there are still people I want to learn from. You guys are one of my go to channels! I'm so happy to hear you say that you won't only do shorts! ❤ Also, I'm sorry that you're going through so much. It seems like life isn't giving a lot of breaks these days. I've said a prayer that your family starts feeling the joy again. You got this, Stivers Family!
Mullin helps with lung /mucus 😉 stay healthy I’m sure you’ll look it up
Yea we use that in our allergy and sinus tincture (mullein & Marshmallow) it works wonders
🍁🍁🍁AMEN🙏🏼Big Brother🌿🪴
Y’all are in my prayer list right now!!! Resolve this matter n their favor Lord!! In Jesus Name!!!
Nice pumpkin harvest! Sorry for your woes...you KNOW who the enemy is, though. I'll send up prayers.
I'm expressing this with the deepest respect, but I have to say that it seems a bit perplexing to me that in the very video in which you are telling everyone to not bend to the forces trying to change everyone, you admit to filming YT shorts, which, in my opinion, is being forced by YT onto the creators, to eventually leave nothing but short videos for the viewer, in return dumbing down society as a whole and shortening everyone's attention span. I started my own YT channel recently, and I refuse to film any shorts for this very reason. You're being manipulated into filming shorts, IMO! Much love. ✌✌✌
Because that’s making them more money than longer ones
@januarysdaughter6664 I have been a follower for years. He has to bring in money for his Family. Other youtube homsteads have had to do the same. Why are you picking on him?
Zach you and Jen are two wonderful people. Your children are beautiful and precious. Y’all are such a beautiful blessing. Stay the warriors path and GOD in your minds, hearts, and souls, and he will take care of everything. 🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You are very wise! God bless and protect you! Isaiah 54-17 Psalm 91 and 13 it’s definitely time for a change. It’s kind of ironic their planned demic just made folks realize how they have been enslaving us and now we are realizing the control as well and folks are waking up and are tired of it. It’s all illegal and goes against our constitutional rights. God protect us! Wished we could sit and have coffee. I am 55 and I am so thankful for this turning point. God is calling his people to stand up against this evil! This was never his plan for us. God bless you Wendy🎄
Spot on, brother! BTW, use a neti pot to clear your sinuses. It's fast, easy and works wonderfully. Blessings in Christ!
Zach, you and your family bring us Joy and Hope. Your always so Honest, care-ing, encouraging and hopeful. You care. You teach. Thank You for being You. I will pray this lawsuit-whatever it is-is over soon and in your favor. Personally I can't see any reason for this to be happening to you all. Best Wishes.
🦋🙏🎈
I appreciate y'all so much for all to do to show and tell us about your lives. My only issue about not being able to homeschool my daughter, is that her father is no way on board with it. He doesn't understand how better it could be and I'm stuck in a situation because I don't want my daughter to be in the middle. Her dad and I are divorced so it makes it really difficult. That's my only reason why I haven't yet. Love y'all!
Homeschooling my children from the beginning was the BEST decision we ever made
I love the word of God. Here is an excerpt from Psalm 35 (NIV). It's too long to post the full thing here, but highly encourage you to read it today and be blessed. God is fighting for you. Side note, my devo today says that the Hebrew word translated "contend" is two-dimensional. It refers to both physical combat and verbal combat. So it runs the gamut from cage fighting to courtrooms.
Contend, Lord, with those who contend with me;
fight against those who fight against me.
2 Take up shield and armor;
arise and come to my aid.
3 Brandish spear and javelin[a]
against those who pursue me.
Say to me,
“I am your salvation.”
4 May those who seek my life
be disgraced and put to shame;
may those who plot my ruin
be turned back in dismay.
5 May they be like chaff before the wind,
with the angel of the Lord driving them away;
6 may their path be dark and slippery,
with the angel of the Lord pursuing them.
I made a stand on vaccines, I said NO - and I remain a pureblood - never vaxxed and never will. Not been sick either.
Amen! You are spot on! Break the mold!!!
Praying for y’all with this lawsuit.
Life is never easy for those who love the Lord. My mom called all her troubles and illnesses Growing Pains. I’m 78 and have been through my share of those Growing Pains but light and love conquers all. Be safe, happy, and keep enjoying every little moment knowing that joy eventually comes in the morning! God Bless You All!
Dang good topic on this video. I'm not in that cult either. Didn't take the juice either. I stand with this community and freethinkers
Totally agree with everything you said.
Prayers your way. Sometimes fasting helps so your body can focus on healing!! Weston A. Price Foundation is great resource!!
Oh I’m so sorry y’all have to go through this. We will be praying! God will vindicate you ❤
Zach, I knew something was up, because you and Jen just seemed to stop running the farm all of a sudden. It became dried up, if you will. But, God has a way of working these complicated issues out. Just keep working. Don’t give up the farm!! I know things will be ok if you just keep plugging along and do all the necessary things to thrive. We love you out here! ♥️🙏🏼♥️
We pulled our daughter out of public school in second grade, pulled her out of private school in third grade, and homeschooled after that. She’s an amazing, levelheaded young woman now. We never regretted it once.
So true Zach. Love ya'll and the channel. I just purchased my very first raised beds. I got 3 and it's just my husband and I, but I'm so excited for what I can do for myself and our little family.
Holy cow that’s a lot of judgement you got going on.
Put your faith in God. He promises to protect you - that no weapon formed against you will prosper. He doesn't promise life will be free from care or setbacks but He makes beauty of ashes. If you are going through a trial, it is to draw you nearer to Him - He is using these things to guide your path to prosper you. It never seems like that when you go through illness or financial hardship - but don't waiver in your faith, keep paying your tithes and stand on the promises of His Word. Been thru so much and received many miracles - had an entire lawyer firm coming against making false statements to break - hold your ground. Don't waiver. Remember who your God is. Give it over to Him and you will be victorious through Him. God bless your family.
Good lord you people are sick or under the weather more often not. Excuses, excuses ,excuses you all may have bad choices no one fault but your own. Own it and Pull up your britches make new choices and move on
My personal opinion is I don't like this type of video, HOWEVER, who gives a rip? I am not a regular viewer so I am not in your demographic.so you do you. All my opinion means is we are all human beings who have things that set us out as individuals, not that you or I are lesser people for it.
But I still periodically watch a video of yours and some I have felt positive about. I'm just not a fan of talking about subjects without talking about them.
One example is you giving an update on some mysterious lawsuit but you refuse to identify what type of lawsuit but then you give little hints. You totally have a right to keep as much about your life private as you want to. Having social media doesn't mean we are entitled to every aspect of your life.
But it is like telling a child you have a surprise in your pocket but you aren't going to tell them what it is but then you proceed to give them hints when their interest wanes. Oh, yeah it's something you can eat. Interest wanes. Oh yeah it's sweet and so on. Just enough to keep them coming back in hopes that the next video you might tell them what it's about. Too bad what you have in your pocket is a cinnamon glazed grasshopper with some po let lint that the kid probably wouldn't want to eat anyway.
If you want to keep something private just don't talk about it. If after it is settled you want to talk about it then do so.
You do have lots of good knowledge to share that people will find useful, entertaining or just give someone the warm fuzzies because it feels like family. When you're hardworking, good people you can stand on that.

Colds are a purification to the body.
I got sick with the 19 November before it became a thing. Months I fought it, I eventually put oregano oil in my nebulizer and bought a ionic pro air filter that outs out ozone in my room..I was better in a week. I now use essential oils in a diffuser in my room every night and have not been sick since. We also take a dose of iver...and start painting iodine on our necks by our thyroid glands, it absorbs in minutes we are so deficient, to counteract radiation sickness every time we feel a bit scratchy. Don't forget selenium with the iodine.
Zach and Jen. Listen! You are blessed and children of the most high God. Give it to God He will fight your battles for you. He will keep you.. I love you guys so much! My heartbreaks for your situation
. Hugs and kisses and lots of prayers ❤❤❤💜💜💜🙏🙏🙏🙏 thanks for healing a bunch of hurt ankles etc with Gods gifts to us.
I am so sorry that is just horrible for you guys. I just couldn't imagine
Thank you! This is what I've been saying. Your words reminded me of one of my favorite songs, Dream Small. My motto always is "BE the change". You can't change the world, you can only change yourself. Then share what you've learned and that will radiate out into the world. Rest, feel better. You are all in my prayers.
Re. Roosevelt vs Rockefeller
You may not have meant to say Roosevelt, but it still fits. F.D. Roosevelt had 3 terms in office, and started a lot of public works programs. A lot of people hailed him as a hero for that, but others said his actions prolonged the Great Depression by as long as 7 years as well as setting us on a pathway of dependence on social programs and government to "save" everyone. We see some of the effects of that today, and the current administration is doing things that are going to have a long lasting impact prolonging the economic challenges of our time. It's often been said that people on farms were not as impacted by the Depression as people in cities partly because they were able to raise their own food. That was true of some of my ancestors who lived a modest farm life. On the other side of the family, my immigrant grandparents and great grandparents who arrived in America just before the Depression had the challenges of losing their home, living in a boarding house, working during the day and going to night school to learn English, and in the case of my grandmother, being excited when her mother would "give her a quarter to go buy some ground beef." They didn't always have meat. Anyway, Roosevelt fit even if that was the name you meant to say.
Just make sure you drink lots of liquid keep hydrated. Blessings.
So sorry for you and your family for what you have been going through. I pray that the outcome is in your favor. You have a wonderful and loving wife and beautiful children. God will guide you and Jenn. Praying for you all. ❤
I really don’t like the shorts as much as a regular vlog. But I watch them anyway.
I took the shots that was required due to my sister was in the hospital and no one could get in unless we were vaccinated, the only reason i did what i was needed .Your doing yalls best hang in there .😊😊😊
Sending much love and many prayers. You are so spot on “Change starts at home”. 🥰
We homeschooled our kids in the 90's and now help homeschool our grandchildren. Best decision we ever made!
