- In this video, I take you on a farm stay tour at Hosanna Farmstay where we explore the ideas of trying homesteading before you buy or simply visiting a farm to spend time in the country with animals to unwind from the stressful city lifestyle. www.hosannafar...

Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane - the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let's get into it! Cheers, Mark :)

G'day Everyone, by CRIKEY we had a lot of fun at Hosanna Farm Stay (talking about acreage envy lol...) www.hosannafarmstay.com.au/ I have uploaded one extra clip on my second channel already you can see it here th-cam.com/video/Nml_a0fofBY/w-d-xo.html it's about pigs. I will upload all of the extra footage from our stay at Hosanna over the next several days to Self Sufficient Me 2. Thanks for your support! Cheers :)
Have you considered doing a monthly podcast?
What a gorgeous farmstead. I’m envious and ready to get started on my own
Wow. How wealthy are these people? That’s amazing
I loved how quickly you put down the little piglet when you realized it wasn't into it.
Some assholes would still hold the thing kicking and screaming....
Great video Mark, looks like you had a brilliant time (much deserved). What the Hosanna Farm stay has constructed is actually a life time ambition of mine and has been since I was a little boy , there's nothing like that here in UK so maybe one day ;)
I just bought 20 acres near Melbourne, to move my family to, after 20 years working in Asia. Can’t wait to do all this.
How much is a 20 acres but do I have to be a citizen of Australia to buy a land?
Can I live with you 😄
I'll do my share of the work
@@emylytle5409 1 acre is officially 100m by 100m (or 10.000m2, 20 acres is 200.000m2 (2.15million square feet for you americans)
Good work. We just bought 10.5 at a place called Biggara on the nsw/ vic border right on the snowey mountains
@@emylytle5409 u can buy 20 acres for less than 90 grand but is out in the desert. Because of people moving from the cities because of our lockdown laws it’s getting unreachable for most now. I was lucky Covid put my house into a stupid high price bracket so we took advantage and sold.
So many people get into homesteading, not realizing how hard it truly is, and how much work is involved. I wish they had these farmstays available everywhere, for various climates, because each climate has its own risks and rewards, but so people can do the work while there...to understand what's really involved. This looks more like a vacation.
Another piece of heaven, just like yours Mark. Thanks for sharing!
There are alot of people that should stay at one of those before jumping in head first. But rather than staying at a farm for recreation maybe it could become a win win for the homestead and future homesteaders
Looks like a a GREAT place! 😊 I personally feel so lucky to live on a farm - although there are only some chicken despite the grasslands and fields. One day, we wanna open the farm for other people to show them how agriculture works. 😀 Hello from Austria 🇦🇹
Nice change of pace in this video. And like you always say mate, get out there and ENJOY NATURE! Well done
What a fantastic family get away! Beautiful place!
That looks like such a cool way to spend a weekend and get the kids to turn off the phones and tune in to nature.
Yeah, it certainly was refreshing Lelleith. Cheers :)
my parents are the ones on their phones all the time
I really hope you get a bigger property in the future. You really do deserve it! Plus it would make for some next-level content. Thanks for all you do. I'm learning so much as a newer veggie/fruit gardener. And your content is entertaining as well.
Absolutely awesome, love farms and love Murwillibah region, thanks for showing us this farm, loved the creek so much...Rozz...Brisbane xo Mark
Could very easily sell everything here in UK and stay at the farm any day...dream come true....love it...
Thx for an awesome vid, the farm stay is an absolute paradise. Might just mention for any potential tree changers to not confuse a fa stay such as this one with the reality of buying & farming on your own place, which consists of a lot of endless hard work, money, constant maintenance, frustrations,etc. We purchased in NSW 115acres of beautiful country & for the past 7 yrs have been setting it up for retirement. Absolutely love it, the commitment, work & being prepared for the unexpected must be factored in
Just shared with my pops. He has an idea of farming associated with rural tourism, a bit like the home stay you showed.
I am also looking for something like that in the parts where I live. Your videos are always with ideas and suggestions, thanks for sharing!
Looks like you must’ve had a great time!
Oh, what a great idea! Thanks, Mark! I'll be looking for one close to my area. 😊
Brilliant! I had no idea farmstays were a thing. I'm looking to eventually move to the country, but it will be a while and just thinking about it is overwhelming with how much I don't know. Getting some in-person exposure beforehand would be great.
When you described your having fun with your uncle the song “Making butter out’a grass” comes to my mind.
Very cool. Lovely natural space and not too far from Brisbane which is named after a guy from my hometown in Largs, Scotland.
Pigs are so cute, on the tongue.
That was just beautiful! and being in nature and with nature is a magical place - so much wonder to take in and so valuable for our well-being. I just loved this video. Thank You Mark!
Absolute heaven!
That is funny I am working on creating a place just like that !!! In Texas USA it will be a few years away now before campers can camp. The moment you go and think you have an original idea you find out otherwise lol. At least now I know it can work. Thank you for the video 👍
By jingos by crykee they were right.What a line.Got to use it more.
Wow how good is that! ❤️
Soo beautiful!
This felt like an asmr walk in the woods.
I would have to agree with some comments. This is a wonderful resort but I could not recommend it as a way to determine if you want to homestead. You truly have to be fully involved in the running of the homestead. You need to be the one that is responsible for the care of all the crops and animals. It is a huge responsibility and I believe you know that. Between the work and keeping your animals and crops safe. What it can be like if you lose animals. I watch your videos and I see it don't go as planned always. That said I fully believe it can be away to get a glimpse of the country. If you just simply want to live in the country and maybe just tinker in some farming. It could grow to end up with something large like Hosanna Farm size but first just be happy with living in a country home.
What a wonderful idea! Really enjoyed watching this video Mark!
I hope this catches on in the U.S.
Would love to do this
I reckon a lot of people are going to be going to this place is the next year or so - i will make sure to take my Self Sufficient Me mug with me to the communal kitchen :D
This is so cool! Thank you for sharing Mark! I didn't know this kind of thing existed, I found a couple near my area and I am so looking forward to visiting :)
It's also nice to see people not wearing masks! 👍 People out in the country are normal.
Thats an awesome business idea.
"Oh, look it's a hippo!" 😆 I am looking to move away from the city to have a home that's self-sustaining. Hopefully in 5 years or less. ^^
"U get to sleep with the animals" man u r funny ha ha ha ha but damn i just love the way u live your life.
That looks like such a great farm to spend time at!!
I really loved this episode and the one on your flow over channel. I would love to stay there one day. I have had a look at their website. Thank you for sharing.
I have always wanted a piglet! 💗🐷🐖🐽
Didn't know that Llamas were used as a way to defend against predators. I learned something new today.
That’s so cool! Were the cheeses and meats you showed near the beginning made there?
Sounds like there's only 1 degree of separation to Kevy Bacon!
Looks more like a vacation than an actual farm stay.
Very nice. You seem like a nice man.
Could you do a video on finger limes
Nice
I thought bees can reuse Honey comb? I heard people say they use it to feed the bees in the winter to get them by.
Every thing very buitfull , only the pig not , happy day 💫
👍👍👍👍
Is there a list of farm stay places?
Possible Tripadvisor? Cheers :)
Has anyone wondered what sort of nutsack gives old Mark From Self Sufficient Me's videos a thumbs down? 🤷♂️
I need peace and quiet with the animals, so the sounds of this video would have been a nightmare for me. We don't like screaming kids, either. We were taught respect when we were little.
I'd fly to Australia just to stay there! I'm serious. (California)
My Dad moved our family to the country when I was 7 and I learned to love it. I spent my summers Hiking threw the woods and finding stuff under rocks while my siblings found every reason to hate it. They would start their bickering and fighting and I would just disappear into the woods or, to the middle of the hay ring to pet the horses while they munched away.
Well not everyone is made for this live.
It's amazing how far into the moral abyss people have fallen, all in the name of the Almighty Dollar. People must all grow locally and sustainably if we have any chance of avoiding extinction.
The pursuit of the almighty dollar is why the owners of this establishment are in business and open to the public.
I agree, stop eating meat, organic, local, grass fed, none of this shit matters, its all destroying native habitat.
Lol what a hypocrite. You pay with love, or fresh air? You taxpayer supported at all?
@@Darkstar001 The resources used by the farming industry is what's depleting earth the most. Not doing anything about this, based on the fact there are other problems, is a logical fallacy.
@@dirface that's a fair point. I just wanted to highlight that although farms like this can easily appear to be the solution to the worlds problems. And despite if it local, organic, free range etc. None of that reduces the biggest issue of land use, water use and emissions. I am all for more sustainable practices. But we cannot have that conversation without have the conversation of do we really need to be eating this stuff considering its impact.
It looks like a great little place to get away from the daily stress from whatever gets to you!
It is only a matter of months before we leave the suburbs and find a decent size property or land. I know what is happening and what is yet to come, all planned. Cheers Mark for all your videos and efforts, it will help many people in the times ahead. 👍
This video hit me on a spiritual level and reminded me of the possibilities, so thank you for that. It all looks amazing and it certainly comes through in the video. Amazing. Aren't we all blessed!
Thank you so much for this perspective. I also love the farm life and am a chicken owner and gardener. Here in America so many people are in a rush to go nowhere and it’s a sad state of affairs. I 100% agree with all you’ve stated. I’m glad your family got a little time to unwinded🙏🏽. Happy gardening from Florida 🌞
Great Weekend Mark, so glad Kim & I were able to tag along. It was fantastic.
Thanks mate for you guys joining us! And thank you for being the "stuntman" for the trip - you are a champ! Cheers :)
One of your best vids Mark, what a great place to go to get away from it all.. i bet you could see every single star at night too.
One of my favorite videos of the last 5 years. Due to the many well-documented small pieces of footage and the understandable explanations. One can truly feel the symbiosis of silence and a relaxing atmosphere on the farm. Slow lifestyle is the best time of all times.
this is a little different from your usual content, but it is fantastic video!!
I felt like I went on vacation just by watching
I just recently did the same here in Maine. It was awesome! Makes you aspire to more! Thanks Mark!
I live in Maine. Its a good state.
Oh YES. 🙌🏻 This looks like so much fun! We are taking our kids to Yellowstone National Park in a few weeks. Can’t wait to unplug and just enjoy nature. 🦌🦬🐾
This is one video I hit the thumbs up as soon as I started watching it 💝👍🤸♀️
SERIOUSLY Mark this is my back yard. welcome!!
So happy to hear you enjoyed yourselves we love it down here, and feel really lucky.
But I tell you it was watching you that helped with our final choice to live here and make our tree change.
Just stoked, we feel like we live in heaven.
You rock!!!!!
Now that is what I call an " All inclusive" experience.
One of my all time favorite youtube videos... thanks..
We got 4 acres here just south of Brisbane.
Love having the big land 🌳
Hi...... Mark (Self Sufficient Me) nice to see you love watching your videos, thank you for sharing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
I would never have known about this place without you. Definitely on my list now
Hey Mark, been away from the channel for a couple of months and what a boon you’ve had! We’re so happy for you on how successful it’s become! The video you put out of not knowing if you’d continue the channel is long forgotten 😁
Great effort, keep fighting the good fight, all the best from our family to yours 😉
YOU GOT WONDERFUUL CHANEL , SUBSCRIBING FOR LONG. NOW I LIVE IN NY ....... .
You're so hilarious and wholesome, I love it!
This is exactly the kind of initiation into farming I'm looking for my kids... Do we have something if this kind in Canada?
I find it wacky that you have 3 acres and still can't have livestock, that's plenty of room for a few pigs and a goat pair.
Theres already a lot of farm land being used for cows. The indigenous peoples there kinda have it hard enough without more farmers taking more space for cattle.
Let’s.... Get into it!! 😎 That’s gonna be iconic very soon! Great job Mark!
I grew up on a farm, getting up early to milk cows, clean the pig pen, round up the chickens, pluck veggies from the garden, and do it all over again 7 days a week. Always took time out for Sunday church, then back to farm!
I still garden to this day, but can't have any farm animals where we live.
Great fun!
Definitely food for thought...great escape from hassle and bassle. Thanks Mark ❤.
Thank You so much it's beautiful l well never go back to city life
I hope the parents stayed off their phones long enough to enjoy time with their children
Yup!
Beautiful farm stay! The water looks amazing :-)
U Aussies know how to live. Nice 👍
Great video,keep it up!🇦🇮
What a beautiful place! And jabuticaba jam is really good!
That looks peaceful and lovely Mark!😍 I'm happy for your family that you went. I'm sure they are too.
There are places similar in the States. Some you just go and stay and others you feed and care for the animals and/or farm. I don't know if I could sling a saddle up on a horse at this age.☺️
🇺🇸💜
Where in the Staes can you find this sort of thing?
@@thestraightroad305 Many homesteads and working ranches used to do this from thr Rocky Mountains to the Appalachian. Since the 'illness' many have been shut down by the powers that be. I don't know who's still doing business. 😔
@@trishthehomesteader9873 thank you though! I appreciate your response and maybe will find something…🙂
Hi Mark. Great video. Please stay safe and healthy and take care of yourself and your family members. To all members also. Talk to you later my friend. ☺☺☺😇😇😇
Thank you. Cool. ☺☺☺😇😇😇
😂 give it a big squealing thumbs up 👍🏻😆
Watching this while eating sauteed beet greens scrambled into eggs. Yum.
Thank you Mark for doing these I don’t think anybody ever or something like these here in the US, now I’ve have to search 😇😇😇❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎
They've been an option for awhile, there just isn't a lot of talk about it.
If you're interested in learning skills of any particular sort, there are also specific packages that will teach you different homestead or traditional skills. Here's a good place to start - farmstayus.com/

There are lots of others. It's probably the most fun rabbit hole I have ever traveled down.
Absolutely beautiful place...🍃🌻🌿
What a beautiful weekend! Thanks for sharing.
I was very lucky growing up to have family who had a smallholding so I got to visit on school holidays and help out. So much fun! Might need to look into a farm break soon lol xxx
Love the farm 🚜😍 Animal
Yes this is the greatest stay on the farm, i was born on a farm in. Gaspe, Quebec, Canada and i will move back to Ontario with my husband and retire in June 5 weeks.........yeah........I am watching your videos and you sure have told me so many things, i am going to have a small gardens..........Tomatoes, strawberrys, cucumber, and so much more.........I love your videos.............
Love your comments Mark. I've seen your self-suff thoughts and your infectious enthusiasm.
We heard recently that Hosanna is no more or at least some disastrous "restructuring". Short-sighted ignorance.
Be careful what you say about lamas 😅😆😃😂😄 they got a tendency to bless you with a very wet unexpected sneeze...😅😆😃😄
