Yes I also was and am in Natalie shoes, watching TH-cam farmers, although finally we have our little 3 acre farm since April this year, we still need the farm community and more experience, nice vlog indeed!
Got my book today and was so stoked to see that it was signed by Justin! I pictured Justin being handed the book by one of the kids, signed it and handed it off to Becky who stamped it with our sticker and Lilly stuck the Abundance+sticker. I’m already half way through first chapter.. so good. Edit: Halfway through and Justin E-mailed the wife back to congratulate us. Man… this community is awesome.
I slow down by spending a few minutes sitting with my chickens or goats. Some of the chickens will come sit in my lap for pets, and the goats LOVE attention. I love to walk in the greenhouse and just observe what's grown and if anything is fruiting or needs to be harvested. ❤
So glad you’re back to good health Justin. You preserved through the pain. You were in pretty rough shape but you didn’t give up. You’re an inspiration. Thanks for sharing your life and knowledge with us.
So many of your guests talk about the meaning and satisfaction they get from homesteading. You (Justin and friends) are all doing this for and with your family, and that just seems so central to the lifestyle and the reward. That brings out the poetry of homesteading.
Yes, the GRIND of doing the same stuff everyday to prepare the animals for the day is something you have to enjoy somehow or it just gets too much. Tonight I put the animals back into the barn after dark. It was great because it was calm, clear, and the stars were out so bright. That made it special. The chickens always go in on their own but I have to put the dog and the two goats in because we chain them to the areas they will be all day. I have a brooder, a meat chicken tracto,r and a duck tractor going now as well as layer hens. I spend a long time on my birds everyday. I will harvest the meat birds soon. One less chore. Yay! Aao harvest at the garden. Content come to you. I believe it! Thanks for this Justin.
Natalie understands the importance of permaculture. I liked listening to her explain her family's desire in "slowing down", enjoying the entire process........
I've definitely had a few times where I've cried watching farming/homesteading videos. It's gotten better now that we have our land, but I still cry sometimes because we have to still build on the land before we can really get started, and it all still seems so far away.
I know it's it's longshot how busy you guys are to see this comment 😆 Im from just below sandpoint Idaho where some of your friends are from I've seen in videos and now I'm visiting my mom in Hendersonville NC for my 26th birthday I just had. I lived with her for a few years in school years but personally felt more at home in ID so I've been there. We drove through the national forest in Brevard today and saw Sliding rock and all the waterfalls, driving through all the woods made me think of your family I've been watching over a year now it feels like longer! I wish I could have met you guys while here love your family ❤
If you took the cow stantion and moved it over to center you could build two seats one on each side of the cow and that would make milking easier for you.
@@heyitsagoodlife Can't wait! Sad I missed seeing you, Tommy, and Ruby this past weekend but life and back issues. Next year girlfriend! Next year! 💞🙏👶😊
Great video! We were once in those shoes and made the move almost 4 years ago. Looking back from where we were to the present day, we have come a long way as a family and running a farm with multiple enterprises. Love it! We teach our kids everything from canning to animal husbandry.
@@heyitsagoodlife hello! I love your channel! I saw some videos that I need to watch and learn from. We didn’t move far. We moved from Fredericksburg,VA to the Southwestern tip of the County. Went from 3rd of a acre to 11 acres. What a huge adjustment! We jumped in head first and rushed things. Your making a good decision to decide what you want and don’t want.
I love watching your homesteading vlogs. It is a lifestyle I am way too LAZY to embrace. I participate by supporting the local Farmers’ Markets … and watching your vlogs! 🐓 🐄 🐖 🐑 🧡🧡🧡 (PS - I am on a limited income so I can’t participate financially 😢😢😢).
I have followed you guys for years. Was just thinking back to when you used to carry Mr. BROWN all around, just like you are doing with Henry. Love your videos and I am so glad you found a way to get the information out their for people. I remember finding your video when we were researching for our first butcher....that has been a good 8 years ago!
Hey Justin and beautiful one y’all are such a great motivation to so many people and if l miss watching y’all l won’t make it. Blessings! 😎🤩🤩🤩👏👏👏👍👍👍💯💯💯
Love this. For those who can’t do the whole homesteading thing..just find anyone in your community who is doing something or anything regenerative farming or growing food! Get connected! Support each other! Buy or barter services or products! We have raised cows pigs and chickens but we have never kept a milk cow. I buy fresh milk from another local farmer. We don’t have any pigs or cows now but I have several local sources. I learn something from everyone I find in my area that raises or grows any kind of food or animals. I wish I could do it all but I can’t so I love supporting my friends and neighbors and learning from and helping others in my community that raise or grow the things we don’t. Even if you’re in the city, find the people that are figuring out ways to keep animals or raise food!
This video did so much for me!! Thank you Natalie!! So much!! I needed your words! Thank you Justin for giving me a community to model and to guide me in life! To learn from to motivate me. Sooth my soul sometimes!! It means more to me then I could ever express. Ive been watching you Justin/rhodes fam for many years! Youre my first youtube addiction. You have introduced me to almost all my youtube addictions. It's mostly farming or survival way of life types. Through you and the other channels youve shared. Art and bri was a blessing. Jess roots and refuge and now Natalie! Ill be following them to now. I need Natalie's therapist brain in my life. I feel for Natalie the crying cause she wants a life so bad! But being unsure is no fun and rushing in isnt smart.. My heart truely felt for her and understood.
Oh Justin. Every time I watch you, Jess, and Danny, I have to repent my envy. God bless you and the hard work you guys have done. And new pretty lady, "He who is faithful with worms..."
Henry is so Cute. He loves the Ergo and going. His sleep coo is adorable. Got my Book and have started reading already. I also got a Signed Book. I feel so lucky Thank You. Can't wait to see more Lambs. God Bless and Peace from WV
Hi.... Justin Rhodes and Rebecca. Today is my Birthday and my daughter to she is now 2 Years old, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
Some of the best laid plans can end up in disappointment. It's not how many times you get knocked down but how many times you get back up again that counts. Adapt, Improvise and overcome.
Hello from South Africa. I watch you guys every morning with my coffee. It's like a ritual😅. You guys have inspired us to start our urban homestead aaaand attempt a youtube channel 😳. My son is 1 month older than Henry and after watching everyday I'm like: "ok! Time to go do my 1%" and each day they 1% becomes like 20%. Thank you Justin and family for changing lives across the world 💚
I LOVE watching your channel and being a part of your community!!! I can always be guaranteed to see and feel love no matter how sad, rough, and hopeless my life is. I'm so greatfull God directed me in your direction 1 1/2 years ago, you make things seem great for at least 15min daily!!! THANK YOU & YOUR FAMILY & Aroon(sp?) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAPPY DAY uncle JUSTINE RHODES....❤🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hello to your Young Farmer Henry Josiah Jonah Mr. Brown(Gideon) and Lily and the Beautiful one Rebecca... GOD BLESS YOU ALL
If I was younger I would have a small homestead but it’s too late in my life to start this. I wanted to do this when I married my son’s father but he didn’t so that’s a lesson in not being unequally yolked in a marriage.
Will Natalie, Tommy & Ruby be dropping on Jess & Miah? I remember when Jess went out to film them all before Ruby was more than a gleam in her parents eyes. Been following them ever since... How is Natalie's back doing? I know she's had problems with it in the past & then to see her move the pig shelter, I wondered if there would be repercussions from that.
hey Amelia! Thanks for following along with our journey. Thank you God, my back is doing so much better! Ironically, having Ruby helped a ton. It's amazing what the body can do!
@@heyitsagoodlife Glad to know your back is doing well. I wish I vould go to some of those events that you & Tommy will be going to, but unless they are here in the Pacific NW or even here in the Willamette Valley, I won't be able to go. Glad to see you folks there & I hope that you can meet up with Jess for a bit. Take care & a hug for Ruby - while I'm thinking of it, a couple of books to look for for Ruby are, "Tales from the Manager" & "Tales from the Ark" by Chonda Pierce & her late husband, David. Each page is a small tale of what may have happened with the animals that were there. Supposed to be ages 4 - 8 years, but hard to find. They are cute books with good pictures.
Raising a child helps to slow you down and enjoy the process. The hoped for result is a fully functional adult that you enjoy a lifetime relationship with. So many families can’t say they achieved that with their children.
A good sheep dog would would be its weight in gold. In my experience with working and hunting dogs. If they knew their worth, they would got on strike wanting a raise. BTW I am very happy to see u moving around better. Thanks for the continued knowledge to grow and move forward! 😊
I wonder what the impact of the homesteading process is on husband and wife relationships when one partner is so into homesteading and the other isn’t so much. One never sees any disagreements between partners on these TH-cam series, which I guess over romanticises the whole set up. Still it’s no different to any other domestic circumstance.
Getting Your Goat to go where you want is like Us trying to get that Last Chicken to go into the Run for the Night.....Whew! Finally....what a Workout!!
I got my Polyface Micro book in the mail, and it's a signed copy!! I can't wait to immerse myself in it!! I'm loving my Abundance+ subscription also. May I recommend adding Charles Dowding of the UK and the Australian gentleman of the Self Sufficient Me TH-cam channel to your Abundance+ lineup??
Look how fast you were moving wrangling the sheep. I don’t know if you really realized you were do it. From a walker to running wrangling sheep things are looking up for sure. 👍🏻👍🏻

Righteous statement: 'If God will entrust me with these worms, what else will he trust me with?' That statement made my day.
NATALIE!!! I LOVE HER!! She is so precious!! Sweet little Ruby!!
hey @Deb ! you're so sweet! Hello :)
Yes I also was and am in Natalie shoes, watching TH-cam farmers, although finally we have our little 3 acre farm since April this year, we still need the farm community and more experience, nice vlog indeed!
Sweet video, thanks again for having us. It was a joy to learn to love the process... even if it means cleaning pig pans ;) :)
What a sweet surprise to see you
True! I would say....better than stuck in traffic?

You are correct, it is all about falling in love with the process. Justin you are really moving around well, so happy for you!
So glad you’re back to good health Justin. You preserved through the pain. You were in pretty rough shape but you didn’t give up. You’re an inspiration. Thanks for sharing your life and knowledge with us.
So glad to see you recovered and looking so healthy. God bless you and your family. Always an inspiration.

I can't wait to build a home and actually live on my property. Taking care of the animals outside my front door. One day closer!
Excellent advise. “Love the process”
Natalie understands the importance of permaculture. I liked listening to her explain her family's desire in "slowing down", enjoying the entire process........
I love the sleepy song babies sing.
Worms! A woman after my own heart. Unable to do it anymore but I'm glad to see the Younger ones coming up to keep things going.
I've definitely had a few times where I've cried watching farming/homesteading videos. It's gotten better now that we have our land, but I still cry sometimes because we have to still build on the land before we can really get started, and it all still seems so far away.
Gideon is always chopping something ! It’s awesome !
How to enjoy the process? By knowing that what you are doing has meaning and purpose.
I know it's it's longshot how busy you guys are to see this comment 😆 Im from just below sandpoint Idaho where some of your friends are from I've seen in videos and now I'm visiting my mom in Hendersonville NC for my 26th birthday I just had.

Enjoyed the webinar. Was so good. Glad your comments are back and your all looking so much better. God bless you.
Natalie and Tommy are critical thinkers. We are also in the same position. I can’t wait to watch their video.
Thanks, Kate. Video coming soon :)

I like that she is also a worm nerd. No shame in that. My workers is my happy place.
worm nerds unite!
Becca? You are a super star. All I can say is WOW.
Got my book today!! Thanks J&J God bless.

Yay, my girl Nat and har fam made an appearance at the rhodes'! God bless! There is something very beautiful about homesteading.
She was on videos with Roots and Refuge, and The Whispering Willow....
She has a cute channel too. But has taken a few months to slow down with baby Ruby
@@BradfordHomestead yes, finding our new groove and enjoying the process ;) :)
Great video and love it when you make it real, mistakes and mishaps included
Nice to see you’re allowing comments and listening to everybody again, not just those paying for your app.
Great video, again! Justin, tuck that tail into the fold of your knee as you squat down. It helps to stop the tail whips.
It seems like your feet are feeling better today, Justin. Hooray!
Henry is singing his "night night" song!
Soo sweet❤
Can’t wait to see both of you and your families at HOA! ❤️
I love watching your homesteading vlogs. It is a lifestyle I am way too LAZY to embrace. I participate by supporting the local Farmers’ Markets … and watching your vlogs! 🐓 🐄 🐖 🐑 🧡🧡🧡
(PS - I am on a limited income so I can’t participate financially 😢😢😢).
Really good points; got to slow down and enjoy the process! So true!
And there’s been a lot of really good content that I can use and learn from I appreciate what you guys are doing
THANK YOU i hope to meet you at hoa this weekend
Love, " The worms are my livestock, I think about if I can steward these worms well, what else will God and trust me with next." 🤗👍
You need a border collie to help herd your animals. They are so smart it would make it much easier.
Only do what you're comfortable with. Maybe just chickens or a farm, with just veg market garden.
I do the slow-mo and just live while I’m doing the chores.
Blessings to all!
Hopeful to meet you at the homesteaders conference this week! Thanks for being you!
Years ago I went to a sheep herding rodeo near cssper wyoming.
The dogs were the contestants.
Becky- your cooking skills are amazing!!
To crank out all those meals and make cheese 🏆🎉
