Sharing our passion for efficient, sustainable homesteading that brings the family together. We believe in homesteading that's sustainable, not just sustainable homesteading. In other words, we want to show you that homesteading doesn't have to wear you out to the point that you give it up. We've seen it happen, and almost came to that point ourselves.

This was great! There are so many people out there claiming they are “true homesteaders”. To me, you guys are the real deal because you do your best! You do as much as you can…but it is 2023 and there are some things you just need to buy. I loved it when Michelle said “shame free, guilt free”. Absolutely correct. It isn’t all or nothing. Great job guys!
Thank you so much 😊 Such kind words!
Wow
Right off the bat, I will say this. If for whatever reason something doesn't work out for you all, it damn sure isn't because of lack of effort. You both are to be commended, for the pure balance that you both bring to the family.
I know of people my age (60s) that can't support themselves individually. At your ages and the progress you are making, I can't wait to see what you have built in 5 years from now.
Blessings and Joy to both of you and your family! You got it! Keep moving!
Howdy CC!
Hey, thank you so much! Looking forward to keep bringing you the best content we can 😊
So much fun to watch...I'm not married with kiddos so it's just super heart warming to see a side of life that I haven't experienced (yet🙏🤷🏼♀️) never know what plan God has for us each so I'm grateful for the sharing of your Plan in its fruiting years....its so beautiful ❤❤❤ God bless ..Aloha from Maui 🍍🧜♀️🌴❤️
Glad you enjoy 😊 I wanna visit there someday!
I really enjoy watching y’all. Kids are fed very well
Really proud of you two! Stay positive and don’t sweat the little stuff! ❤
I do a pour over coffee with the same filter every morning. Thanks for bringing us along on the camping trip. Brings back memories of camping with my kids.
Great family, Great lifestyle ❤
I live in Barbados, we roast corn and eat. Yes it's burnt but it's delicious. Keep up the fantastic work with your family and farm.
That's great 😊 Thank you!
Love you and your family. No matter what you do where you go that honesty always prevails. ❤ Cape Town South Africa
Great video y’all. Thanks for sharing. A wonderful wholesome family.
We also went camping over Labor Day weekend, and it POURED for 2 1/2 days. We made adjustments and made the best of the situation, so it was fun anyway!
We've had that happen before.. and it wasn't very fun 😉
Trick for your corn is to keep the husk on over the fire!!!! So yummy and looks like you guys had a fantastic time!!!
Thanks for the tip!
This was awesome! So proud of the encouragement you give to those who think it has to be all or nothing...it's what you are comfy with & your family is well taken care of! Keep up the good work😊
Thank you! We really hope we can make a difference 😊
I found you a few days ago and already shard your videos with family and friends. 🎉 I LOVE how you tweak things to work smarter and not harder! We homesteading and I’m learning a few things I’ll start redoing on our place 🙌🏼
That’s great! Glad we can be a part of your journey 😊
Wow, great video of your time away camping as a family. The food looked absolutely delicious and it looked like you didn't lack for anything. Must say the cucumbers were so nice and green and looked really crunchy. Hats off to the local family, that are viewers, that supplied them. Glad that you enjoyed the S'mores as melting the marshmallows over a wood fire makes the flavor next level. One suggestion for the corn, is to leave the husk on the corn and shuck them after cooking, to help them burn less.
Yeah, some people open up the husk, pull the tassel, soak the ears, and put them on the grill in the husk to 'steam'.
We had a good time 😊 Thanks for the tip! We’ll have to try that next time.
Lordy if u get shamed for paper plates 😳…. Y’all r awesome - u even work on ur vacation. Absolutely amazing all the stuff u brought! This made me hungry - and want to camp ❤
You’d be amazed at what people can find to pick on 😏
Been watching for a little while...So glad I found your channel!!! You are such a joy to watch and so inspiring. That camping trip looked so fun and taught a lot of great ways to "get through it and survive" in difficult situations. Thank you for sharing. GOD bless you all.
It's nice to see that your camping looks like our camping. We cook everything, we wash everything (or 90%) and it all tastes amazing. It is a lot of work to plan and prep but great fun when you get there.
Right on!
This is really encouraging and beautiful of how your family is united. God bless you.
May I live this kind of reality someday being self sufficient and enjoy the natural abundance God has provided us on this rich earth.
10:54 Wow! Look at that homemade butter! That looks amazing.
Grass fed Guernsey goodness 🤤
Your work ethic is wonderful and so lovely that you are balanced in making family a priority. Love your videos, can't stop watching!
Hi guys, so nice to see you both enjoying your time out with your family, just a tip I thought I'd share with you, cook your corn with the leaves still intact over the coals, they come out amazing, steamed and really good. I hope you give it a go!
Thanks! We'll have to try it next time.
Hello my wife and I enjoy your videos!!!!
We were wondering what part of Ohio you are
We were raised up around Akron but now live around salt fork Cambridge
Thanks
Awesome 😊 We're about an hour west of Columbus.
We really enjoyed seeing you enjoy good quality Family time. Thank you both for keeping it real, nothing wrong with buying a few things from the store.
Love this little camping trip! ❤
Yall are the sweetest family in the homesteading genre here on youtube. Very endearing, but so real.
Thank you so much 😊
When i go fishing in Minnesota we light the fire on the beach, go catch the fish and from catch to eating is 30 minutes, we catch it immediately gut it and from the time it's off the hook and on the fire is 10 minutes, i bring foil, butter and a lemon that's it❤❤
That sounds epic!! I love fresh fish.
I love what you guy/gal do. Try cooking corn on the cob in the husk. Just put it on the fire and turn a couple times. TaDa perfectly cooked corn. You can cook it the micro wave the same way. 5 minutes for 2 cobs. So simple, peels clean with ease.
Thanks for the tip!
Cheers from Canada! 🇨🇦
I stumbled upon your channel a few weeks ago, and have now watched almost every video you’ve made. :) I love your authenticity, work ethic and family values. Keep up the great work, you two! Looking forward to your future video posts! ❤️
Wow! Glad you're here 😊
I love the video!! My only question was how did you keep the milk cold if you didn’t have electricity??
We took a cooler with a BUNCH of ice packs 😁 Was gettin a little warm by the end 😉
It’s not a break if you’re doing a bunch of dishes all weekend. You can burn the paper plates in the fire.
Totally right 😏
Just curious. How do you keep the milk from spoiling during your camp?
Cooler with lots of ice packs 😊
Just started watching you tube and one of your videos was the first one I have seen. Loads of fantastic info!!!
That’s awesome! Welcome here!
get an old fashioned steel perculator. Place it on the fire. Best coffee EVER!!!
just saw you had one. best coffee with an old fashioned perculator.
We tried it, and just didn't like it as much as the pourover 😉
We like our camp " percolator:"
So we'll we use it all the time ans ditched Mr coffee
I enjoy the way you work together...blessed family
This is great! We just went camping and brought as much from our mini homestead as possible but I also brought some store bought stuff for ease. And for the first time in 14 years I brought paper plates camping! I was over washing dishes haha!
Right on! 😊
Time to start some feeder pigs in the spring so you have real sausage lol!! Great video guys!
Yessss.. gotta convince Michelle 😉
As the child of a professional videographer... your children will thank you for just putting down the camera and being present. No lighting, no angles, no focus, no shine, no noise filter... just be. Sometimes remembering is enough. Balance, Balance, Balance. God Bless.
Well said 😊
So happy to have found your blog. You and your family are a great inspiration.
We use a leaf blower to start fires and to boost them up. 😊😊😊
Niiiiice 😁
Hello Shelly. Can you tell me what kind of bush sweet potatoes you are planning to plant. I’m in SE Michigan. We are neighbors. Thanks.
Howdy! Vardaman.
Just discovered you guys and am in love with you and the beautiful family and life that you have created already. Your videoes are very well done, real, interesting and informative. Thanks for sharing, not only your know- how with us, but your life as well. You are just the kind of people I would love to have for neighbors and friends. Truly you are more than just farmers! God bless you and your family forever.
Love, David
Thank you so much!! Very encouraging to hear you say that!
Thank you for sharing! How do you protect your chickens from predators?
They are completely enclosed at night. They have an electric net around them during the day. Still haven’t figured out the hawk part though 🥴
@@morethanfarmers Thank you for replying. I have to build a fortress. We keep getting hawks and raccoons in the coop. 😒
I love this!!! Yes, yes when it comes to sometimes buying for convenience. Love your philosophy. May your little one get better soon. Blessings!! 🙏🏼🌱😔😊💯❤️🔥
Thank you 😊 She got over it pretty quick.
Do you process your meat birds yourself, or use somebody else?
We get it done by somebody else. It hasn't been worth it for us to invest in the equipment, and doing it without the proper equipment takes WAY too long.
You should camp outside on your own property
Not as much of an adventure! Got to get away from all the work there is to do 😊
Very nice. These days I discovered your channel.
Greetings from Argentina
Welcome!
I have a helpful hint on how to make crispy hash browns. After the potatoes are shredded put the shredded potatoes in water. Rinse until water is clear, this removes the starch. Then squeeze out excess water. You guys are fun to watch!
Forgot one thing.....Put a cover on the frying potatoes for 4-5 minutes. Turn potatoes and cover again.
Thanks for the tip!
Nice break for everyone. Delicious food, family time and memories, That's the good stuff. TYFS 🦋
I thought about you guys the other day when I was at Lowe's. They had raspberry plants and I wanted to buy a few but thought maybe I should have some type of set up before I buy any. Now I wish I would have just bought some.
Well at least you thought about us 😁
I have found it's usually best to have a place ready to go for plants you buy. My raspberries are still languishing on the concrete beside the house. Actually somehow they have escaped the pots and are growing through the concrete. LOL.
I'm glad I waited now. We are in the middle of a remodel. Between that, homeschooling three children, and my new love for sourdough take up a good bit of the day
@@helenebennie3961
I enjoyed watching you guys cooking simple food. My family loves the idea you're doing right now. We will be checking on your gardens and cannings. Thank you! Keep it up.
Beef sausage can be even better (and more expensive) than pork sausage. You made REAL sausage - bulk beef breakfast sausage - and my mouth is watering.
I have done so many bush party
All my friends do smoke weed which I never ever did
In Sri Lanka it grows natural when tourists comes to srilanka They enjoy . U know those days hippies & bell bottom styles
Of course I did enjoy camp fires food
Looks like K.L. local Lake to where I live. Love the woods and trails and love to forage them in the Spring and fall.looks like a great time with your family was had. Can't wait to see your next video y'all rock...
@morethanfarmers grilled corn on the cob trick. Keep the husk on it and soak them in water for about 15-20 minutes then grill them and the corn won't burn. Husk comes off pretty easy after they cool off for a few minutes.
Your corn wouldn't burn if you used foil. I know Foil! yes foil! I eat corn on the cob with no butter or salt. You can really taste the corn. This was great seeing your family enjoying your time together. God bless you.
Who runs the farm when y’all on vacation????
I am interested in planting some raspberries. I was wondering which variety you have? Seem to do well for you!
Do you guys harvest your own syrup?
No.. we don’t have any maple trees on our property. I’m hoping to sometime get permission to do it somewhere else though 😊
Hug and kiss each child tell them how much you love and need them and their help and So Does Jesus. Especially when one of you all is sick.
Love it! We have a 5-6 qt cast iron roasting pan that's lid doubles as a griddle... it fits over both burners of our camp stove! 👍🏼🙌🏼 We have used it for all kinds of things both camping and at home
Nice!
Love the videos! I just recently found your channel and am so glad I did. With that being said if this has been said already I am sorry but next time you cook sweet corn over the fire try leaving it in the husks and soaking it in water for a little while before putting it over the fire. We have been doing it like this for years and it turns out so good!
What do you do with the cow when you go camping? We are moving to 10 acres in a couple weeks and I’m trying to learn as much as I can
🎉Team paper plates!! They are my favorite occasional convenience lol
you need sour cream and maybe some chives and salt and pepper and maybe some ranch dressing or bbq sauce on those baked potatoes. maybe some bacon bits too. Please don't show baked potatos with ONLY butter again. That is CRIMINAL oh yeah and maybe some shredded cheddar cheese melted onto it
😂 to each his own. Sounds great though! 😋
This is my dream life
Treasure these moments. We go camping with our girls every year, but this year may be our last because our girls GRADUATE this year. It went SO FAST!
A new chapter 😊 Treasure those moments, even now, and don't let those family fun times stop. I (Codi) lost my mom to cancer 5 years ago. She was only 49. She loved to go camping as a family, and that's something I'll always remember.
I have done so many times
Campaign fire pits
Difference life styles .
Recently found yaws channel. Love ❤️ your videos, so informative and inspiring.
Would love to see a video 📹 on how and what you pack to camp in the trailer. I love the idea of the trailer being multi-purpose.
Maybe we can do that sometime 😊 Glad you enjoy!
Michelle speaks the truth!!!Cody you're funny . I was thinking the same thing... that someone would say something about the foil and paper plates. I'm a fan of paper and foil whenever you can use it:)
Thanks 😁
I use to use one of those pour over coffee cup filters lined with a round milk filter to filter our goat milk.
Best way for corn is keep in skins soak in water then put on fire it won’t burn your corn skins peel off easy along with silk
Great camping❗️I was born & raised in Ohio and we did a lot of camping! Fun, and brought back happy memories!m‼️
That is awesome! 😊
My youngest son and I go camping for at least a week every summer. Canada has a particularly lovely national and provincial parks system. One of the things we love to prepare on the campfire is corn. Normally, we leave the husks on, soak them in water for a few hours, then toss them directly on the coals. They steam and roast right in the leaves, and the leaves also protect the corn from burning. Delicious!
That's really cool. Thanks!
guys don't skip the advertisement for them to earn with their videos! Let's help them please. They are very nice and educational as well.
Thank you 😊
When I grill corn I don't peel the leaves off, instead I leave them on only pulling them back to wash them and remove the silk, then soak the corn for a few minutes in clean water and grill. The leaves act as a buffer between the heat and the corn. Anyway, it is so easy and so good.
That sounds like a good idea 😏
What a great idea for a video! Thank you for taking us along!
Your a really busy family , your children will learn so so much about true family and veg growing , its all true to life, id love your life style , keep your health good then your body engine will work well 👏👍👊😘x
So true 😁
Hey, you can make your own whip cream! Shake the cream in a jar until its thick, stop before you get butter, then add a dash of vanilla😎😋
I forgot, a little😁
I never remember to marinade meats either. So I had to start meal prepping and putting the marinades in the chicken bags and putting them in the freezer. Then, when the meat thaws, it marinates the whole time. Yummy. Yall had such an amazing time. Love it!
Nice! Great idea.
When I made apples in my cast iron it tasted nasty. Nothing else tastes weird in it. Wonder what I did wrong. I thought it was a chemical reaction or something but then I see you doing it just fine. 🤔🤔🤔
That is odd. We've never had a problem.
was something acidic added with the apples like lemon juice or something? anything acidic in cast iron can leech metals like nickel into the food and taste off.. ? just a thought.
Yes! I did add some lemon juice! And it did taste like metal. Thank you- mystery solved. ❤❤❤
... who are the four people who disliked this??
Nice video ❤
You're doing it exactly right. This is how I imagine real homesteaders. You are my great role models.
Thank you so much! Our goal is to inspire 😊
Family time... awesome! 🍓🥬🍞
Breakfast of Champions 🏆 🥇!
Omgoodness, forget about the foil around your "baked" potato. A few years ago I had a 98 year old lovely woman tell me to just bury it in the coals. Wait 10-15 min. Best tater I ever had! Something about the coals giving the skin a charr, and the saltiness of the ash. Try it! They're so good 😊 Love, love, love your videos!
It was actually wood, not coals😅😅😅
We'll have to do that 😊
I couldn’t find the bbq sauce tech
So glad we found you! You guys are our inspiration but we are 60 yrs old so our homestead will be a lot smaller 😊
That totally still counts. Glad to have you!
Beautiful food! Beautiful crew!
Okay we need one of those shirts! 😍😍😜
Wholesomeness overload🎉❤ Dream life
It's so fun. I'll come often. Come and see me
So good!! Thank you for this video.
L💜VE it! 🌞💜🏕
My dad built our camper. It was a pop up made out of plywood. Pull out ends and the top raised up in the middle. So cool. Maybe you could put some sliding windows in the trailer. Also, screen houses are cheap and great for over your table. Plus great for playing cards or coloring or whatever if the weather turns bad. Dad also made a cabinet that fit on the end of the picnic tree able. The front of it folded down and it created a counter top area. It was like a narrow kitchen cabinet. The width of a plate. Then it folded up and kept critters out of our bread and foods that didn’t need to be refrigerated. She stocked it with everything we needed and the stuff stayed in there. Plates, and yes some paper 😂😂 and she got some second hand silver ware etc. so fun and awesome.
That sounds way cool! I’m gonna have to up our game 😏
He lived to be 96, so you have plenty of time. Just some fun ideas. Your wonderful parents. ❤️
Greetings from Croatia !
Welcome! 😊
I had hoped to watching you make popcorn 😢
Two reasons you didn't get to... First, it woulda been too dark to video. Second, it ended up getting too late and she didn't get it made! 😂 I was going to mention that in the video and I forgot. We made it in this video here though: th-cam.com/video/V7obwm_OTEc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pX4HZjohY8knCId3
@@morethanfarmers thanks 🙏☺️
Why have I not thought about making an inclosed trailer a camper!!
My great great grandpa invented the train hitch, my great grandpa turned an army truck into a tractor loader, and growing up it was my dad’s idea to use his cargo trailer for our family’s camping trips.. I guess I’ve got inventive genes 😊
@@morethanfarmers haha, yes! I’m going to have to do this. We love camping but my wife would prefer something other than a tent 😆
I really enjoyed this video and that shirt is perdect for you 😂😍 Thank you both for sharing 💜
