Sarah and Kevin, thank you for your videos of "Good" things. This world has so much crazy stories its wonderful to see content of happy times and Godly people to share my day. God Bless you

Oh, you got to call Pork Chop's baby "Applesauce!" 💜 You've pushed my spring fever into high gear! I loved my citrus trees. Your greenhouse is going to smell wonderful when they bloom And no better berry than a blueberry!
There's just so much that is the real deal about Sarah and Kevin, and the thing that I appreciate most about this couple, is that that have taken their relationship and responsibility very seriously in everything that they are doing from their TH-cam channel, farming and information and fact sharing. Faithful, positive and down to earth people. God bless.
I just love watching you two get along so well and have such great stuff to watch. I’m always in wonder of how in the world y’all can do it all from the planting, feeding animals , cooking from scratch, cleaning, taking care of children,TH-cam videos and editing and everything else you do in a day. Can you do a video on how you get your energy? Do you take a specific vitamin or have a secret diet to help or something? I think it might just be the joy you have with each other. You really have something special together!
@@naomisims7230 there is a book, the national berry fruit and nut index I think is what it's called, literally 8000 apple varieties, 100s each of different citrus, berry, nut etc and details about them plus where to get them. It's an amazing resource
Travis at The Prepared Homestead is planning an event very near you in late May. Hope to see you there. He's not charging admission and very low vendor fees to encourage people to come learn and share.
Oh, you have given me HOPE! When I get moved to Missouri, I wanted to bring my satsuma and Meyer lemon with me hoping they will live with some protection! Hallelujah! It just might work! Thank you 😁
We have been looking into building a geothermal greenhouse after hearing of a man who was able to grow citrus and tropical things in Nebraska by using a geothermal greenhouse
Hey, guys! I live in the North Florida Panhandle, Zone 8b. We have LOTS of Satsuma and Meyer lemon trees here, and so far, I've planted to Meyer lemon trees at my new home, and will be planting Satsumas this year. My neighbor's daughter has both in her yard, and he brought me bags of them last year. As for the Satsumas, they are wonderful for fresh eating, and last year I made lots of satsuma jelly. Not only are Meyer lemons good for juicing and cooking (I do a lot of Greek cooking and use tons of lemons), they are thin-skinned and make the absolute best lemon marmalade and lemon jelly! You won't believe how much juice you get out of one lemon, either. Sarah, those Key limes are small, but they make some awesome key lime pies.
I agree with the Meyer Lemon admiration. We love ours as well. It's growing much better than the Key Lime or Nectarines that were all started at the same time. My son bought himself a juicer just for the Lemons and all the health benefits they give plus their great taste.
I live in Harrison AR and have had citrus and tropical fruit trees since 2012 and love them. I bring them in the basement for the winter under shop grow lights and enjoy picking fresh fruit all winter. Love your channel.
As someone who sells plants and trees online I was terrified at your unboxing and planting. I love you guys, so much- but. moving forward. Please unbox your plants/trees indoors in a darker room and let them acclimate for at least 48 hrs. After that, it is the same as vegetable start acclimation. Pot up after a week of rest and acclimation. Opening them in the straight up sunlight and even shading them on a hot metal trailer out of the box is a thing that made me OH MY GOSH. If they die, or go into super shock is on you guys. I know everyone is super excited, but this was not the way to do this. Did I mention I love you guys? Thanks for all the awesome videos and my love and I are always joking about buying your place when you go!
When I was at the University of Missouri for 6 years, I had a massive 7 foot Meyer lemon tree in a big old pot and a lovely 5 foot key lime tree in a big pot. They wintered in my East facing giant living room window and produced bumper crops every single year!
Grandpa was a cattle rancher. Seeing that curly-haired calf makes me miss him so much. We spent hours on the tailgate of his truck with him narrating all the dynamics of the herd. “Now, watch, she’s gonna…and her calf is gonna…and that black cow…”
I REALLY enjoy the variety of content your channel has. Thank you!! Your efforts do NOT go unnoticed. Although you are in MO. and we are in GA I can still glean from your channel and explore ideas for our farm. Thank you and my animals thank you too.
Hey Gang Kevin and Sarah, I'm sure you know but when I was planting blueberry, raspberry and curannt bushes I would add PINE NEEDLES to the soil because of their high acidity, great posting, God's Good Blessings to you and your beautiful family keep up the great work love U guys XOXOXO stay safe and healthy
Satsumas and Key Limes are 2 solid choices! We had both at a house in FL. The Satsuma is more of a bush than a tree. The branches hang down, more like weeping willow with fruit (and thorns) than an apple tree with strong upward branches.
The baby calf is adorable maybe call her gravy ,(porkchop and gravy) love the trees and blueberries 🫐. Can't wait for the other calf to be born and may it be healthy 😊 God bless 🙏, maybe put the trees on bricks and boards.
Good morning, Kevin and Sarah! Have a wonderful day in all you do! We look forward to every video you put out. Mostly, we love your heart for God. It comes through in all that you do. 🙏💗🇨🇦
Thank you guys so much for sharing your lives, we love seeing your challenges and opportunities. You are a real joy and alternative to all the lies and crap on the prince of the airwaves and tel-lies-vision. Blessings to the new heffers and new fruit. 👍👍💚💛🌞
I love your videos I learn so much about farm, and everything you show us, is my favor videos we enjoy the whole information. Can't wait to see all of them. We are Christians too. I m blessed by looking at your videos thank you very much God bless.
Hi again. Just a little advice, when planting if the roots are visible, break up the soil around so that the roots don't stay in a clump, it will then make sure the roots spread out. Bye guys. What about the calf being lamb chop to go with pork chop 😂God bless
Love your videos SO much!! Thank you for sharing your life with us. My kids want you to NAME YOUR CALF “Applesauce”, as pork chops & applesauce go together & a momma & baby should always be together. :-)
We own a landscape nursery and let me tell you, your trees came in VERY nice! I was impressed with the condition of them after being boxed. We get thousands of trees in every year and these were a good purchase! Be sure to show us when you get fruit!!
That new little calf is so adorable. I’m glad she will be a permanent resident so we can see her grow. I miss citrus too since I moved from AZ to the Ozarks. Good luck with the new trees and blueberry bushes.
Hey Kevin and Sarah, Thanks for sharing your videos. I love watching your channel and seeing how you do things on your farm. I know it takes extra time to produce these videos away from everything else. However, I do wish you could increase production somehow. You two are like a drug to me and I just can' get enough. You always leave me wanting more. I found you sometime shortly after you left Arizona. I subscribed and have been keeping up with you ever since. God bless you and please make more.
It would be nice. But I follow a lot of homesteaders, and often times I start to get busy doing my things and the things they have taught me. But I am always watching videos. So I like that they post twice a week. I just do not understand how they maintain a very very productive, busy, balanced and Satisfying lifestyle. Of course I am 72 years old. But it sure beats punching a clock. They get everything back that they put into it. God Bless them 😊🙏❤️
I received my Meyer lemon, key lime, dwarf tangerine and Chicago Hardy Fig in January. Too early for Montana and my greenhouse isn't finished. So they have been in pots in my garage under grow lights and are now happily blooming away! Mine came from Fast Growing Trees. I'm very happy 😊.
I used to add pine needles for my plants needing acidity and they were gorgeous. I put the pine needles on top of the soil and as they break down, I would add more pine needles every year. Hope that may help you.
Have you thought about keeping a calf chain and pulling handle in your calving kit? They don’t take up much room, and if there’s trouble when they are a long ways away from the house, they can literally be a life saver.
Wow, look at that. We still have snow, but very anxious for spring. Thank you for your awesome videos. It's so exciting when I see you have a new video. God Bless your special family
I have blueberry bushes as well. Just FYI you need two different varieties to produce blueberries! Find another bush of a different kind to plant around them. Sure enjoy your videos. We are working on getting some meat rabbits and are watching your rabbit videos for info!
Watching from central Georgia's Lake Country. We planted 3 Satsumas at our current house. One survived and was loaded with fruit in November. One the root stock (a bitter orange) took over because we didn't know to keep it cut back. It also was loaded with fruit that the deer loved. The bitter orange has grown taller than the ranch style house. But the Satsuma is just now 7 feet tall after 7 years. Love your videos.
Good morning!🙏😊 What a wonderful way to start the weekend day , ( watching your videos). I had planted blueberries a few years ago but they just didn’t do well, so I’ve been thinking about trying them in containers. Today I had already planned to plant my potatoes and now I’m going to also plant some blueberries and raspberries in containers! Thank you as always for such good information. Have a great weekend and welcome to the new calf and the one on the way. Love and prayers Tammy
My grandmother had a lemon tree she started from seed she saved in California and this was in southern Oklahoma. It stayed on her porch and rarely had to move it into the house if it got really cold. I remember the smell of those flowers
I just harvested my first orange in Vermont! Citrus are beautiful plants, and the flowers smell amazing so they are a welcome plant inside during the winter. :)
We have 3 citrus trees in our passive solar greenhouse that is just off the back of my handmade, ceramic, mosaic/shaped tile, art studio at our homestead here in East TN. My favorite is the Calamondin (Calamansi) tree, which is very hardy and pest-resistant. It also goes by the Philippine lime or Philippine lemon. They are a tart little orange that grows an abundance of fruits. They make the BEST bundt cake ever and a great summer drink similar to a lemon-aid. We're not very partial to sweets, so this fruit is perfect. We also have a Key Lime and Mandarin Orange. I just started another dozen Calamondin trees from seed. No grafting is needed with this citrus tree.
Build a secondary greenhouse inside the main greenhouse with more insulation. If necessary dig down about two feet for earth insulation, then pile straw around the structure during the winter.
Those trees will do really well in those pots. There are several videos on how to trim fruit trees to keep them small for pots or permaculture. Nice choices if your like me two is never enough. Can't wait to see what's next.
What you said is true, Kevin, as to buying a citrus tree that has been grafted. I worked at a nursery in CA and all their fruit trees, citrus or otherwise, were all grafted. Good for you for doing your research! You two are living my dream. It is great watching you do such a great job!!!! Love watching your channel. Blessings.
I have 6 meyer lemon trees growing in our house here in ontario canada lol we can put them outside in the summer and they grow in the house in the winter. i love them
I’m from south Louisiana and can guarantee that you will LOVE the satsumas. We recently moved to Arkansas and will get me a satsuma tree once my greenhouse is built!
Those are very nice looking citrus trees. Satsuma varieties are slow growing compared to other variety of citrus but they are more cold tolerant than most and they are so delicious! Good luck with your citrus trees. They need well draining soil and a good citrus fertilizer. Be careful not to overwater them, they dont like wet soil. Watch out for spider mites and other pests. I live in cold zone 4 and I have a Satsuma planted in ground, in a unheated, partially underground greenhouse and it has produced some beautiful, great tasting fruit . It is slow growing
Blueberries, I have been told should have 3 different varieties to do best and then wood chips spread around. Mine do great this way, not in pots. Gallons and gallons from 5 plants.
Great video!!! God bless you! I love watching all the homestead things you do, such a peaceful wonderful life! I love the Ozark mountains and I love farm life! I can’t do either now but I can enjoy it through your channel. Love and prayers and God bless you always!!
Did it. A to Z trees arrived. Like yours in beautiful shape. Ordered mine Monday morning. Came Friday! Did 3. Lime, lemon, and orange. Lime and lemon even had fruit! Gorgeous trees! Thanks for sharing!
i have citrus in our house in northern Idaho! they're blooming!!! First time trying this. very excited!!! DEFINITELY MYER LEMONS. my lime blossomed YESTERDAY!!!
It’s wonderful to see all your hard work pays off with such a beautiful little calf congratulations. Love your I Videos can’t wait for the next one. Have a blessed day.
In our herd, we use names that show the lineage of the cow. Example: Honey (cow) had Bit of Honey (F), Honeycomb (F), Son of Honey (B), Drop of Honey (F), Sweet as Honey (F), Sue B's Honey (F)
Great video. I live in Zone 10 in San Diego so ALMOST anything can grow here. I’ve got an orange, lemon and tangerine that are fruiting, really feels great to go pick one to eat. I’ve grown avocado and mango from pits and have gotten them to produce but I’ve also grown avocados, mangos and lemons that have become large trees that never produced anything. If you have the space and time it’s fun to go from pit/seed to tree but if you really want fruit then buys a grafted proven variety. Have you every free-dried orange juice? Thanks for sharing!
Such exciting times on the farm and homestead. What a beautiful Calf. Thank you for sharing your videos Sarah and Kevin and sharing your wealth of information. Have a lovely day,
I just love seeing all the new baby calves and horses each spring out here and of course baby chicks. Working on getting our new permanent garden going. Burning all the weeds then rototilling, fencing it then setting up the rows. We are in Az but up on the white mountain area.
I really like your videos. Great. When my cow's are 3rd trimester I bring them in to a calving pasture. Large enough to accommodate all but close enough for me to keep an eye on them. Calving time is special to my wife and I. Keep up the good work.
I live in MO as well. I'm excited to see how your citrus fruit trees do!! Such a great idea to try them. I love your channel. Thank you so much for sharing!❤❤
Sarah and Kevin, thank you for your videos of "Good" things. This world has so much crazy stories its wonderful to see content of happy times and Godly people to share my day. God Bless you
You said this so well, Jan
So true they are just busy living and depending on themselves. Love them.👍🏻😊
Seems like you don't add store bought potting soil into the pots your planting your fruit trees in. You only used composted cow and rabbit manure?

That baby calf and mom is the cutest thing ever ☺️
Good morning Kevin and Sarah! The audio is great Kevin and the way they screen out the wind noise is truly amazing! Just wanted to let you know. :)
Their microphone rock. They used to have it listed and linked in the description. I wish more youtubers used them.
@@Emeraldwitch30 yes, I think the youtuber in Okie can definitely benefit from them with all of the wind noise they pick up in their videos. :D
Wow thats awesome...a real little tree in a box. How cool, they are so adorable.

Build a secondary greenhouse inside the main greenhouse with more insulation. If necessary dig down about two feet for earth insulation, then pile straw around the structure during the winter.
Those trees will do really well in those pots. There are several videos on how to trim fruit trees to keep them small for pots or permaculture. Nice choices if your like me two is never enough. Can't wait to see what's next.
What you said is true, Kevin, as to buying a citrus tree that has been grafted. I worked at a nursery in CA and all their fruit trees, citrus or otherwise, were all grafted. Good for you for doing your research! You two are living my dream. It is great watching you do such a great job!!!! Love watching your channel. Blessings.
I have 6 meyer lemon trees growing in our house here in ontario canada lol we can put them outside in the summer and they grow in the house in the winter. i love them
I’m from south Louisiana and can guarantee that you will LOVE the satsumas. We recently moved to Arkansas and will get me a satsuma tree once my greenhouse is built!
Those are very nice looking citrus trees. Satsuma varieties are slow growing compared to other variety of citrus but they are more cold tolerant than most and they are so delicious! Good luck with your citrus trees. They need well draining soil and a good citrus fertilizer. Be careful not to overwater them, they dont like wet soil. Watch out for spider mites and other pests. I live in cold zone 4 and I have a Satsuma planted in ground, in a unheated, partially underground greenhouse and it has produced some beautiful, great tasting fruit . It is slow growing
I so miss living in Missouri. Was just east of Independence in Oak Grove. Moved to south west NY state in 93.. so want to go back.
You are going to love, love, love the limes for cooking. Key limes are pungent-citrus, tangy, and floral tasting all at the same time. Yumm!
Blueberries, I have been told should have 3 different varieties to do best and then wood chips spread around. Mine do great this way, not in pots. Gallons and gallons from 5 plants.
Great video!!! God bless you! I love watching all the homestead things you do, such a peaceful wonderful life! I love the Ozark mountains and I love farm life! I can’t do either now but I can enjoy it through your channel. Love and prayers and God bless you always!!
Did it. A to Z trees arrived. Like yours in beautiful shape. Ordered mine Monday morning. Came Friday! Did 3. Lime, lemon, and orange. Lime and lemon even had fruit! Gorgeous trees! Thanks for sharing!
i have citrus in our house in northern Idaho! they're blooming!!! First time trying this. very excited!!! DEFINITELY MYER LEMONS. my lime blossomed YESTERDAY!!!
It’s wonderful to see all your hard work pays off with such a beautiful little calf congratulations. Love your I Videos can’t wait for the next one. Have a blessed day.
Yes God Bless. Nice fruit trees happy for you.
In our herd, we use names that show the lineage of the cow.
Example: Honey (cow) had Bit of Honey (F), Honeycomb (F), Son of Honey (B), Drop of Honey (F), Sweet as Honey (F), Sue B's Honey (F)
Oh!!!! Name the Calf Chitlin! Loving your new tree and bush additions. Thank you guys so much for sharing!
Great video. I live in Zone 10 in San Diego so ALMOST anything can grow here. I’ve got an orange, lemon and tangerine that are fruiting, really feels great to go pick one to eat. I’ve grown avocado and mango from pits and have gotten them to produce but I’ve also grown avocados, mangos and lemons that have become large trees that never produced anything. If you have the space and time it’s fun to go from pit/seed to tree but if you really want fruit then buys a grafted proven variety. Have you every free-dried orange juice? Thanks for sharing!
Love that you have new calves and citrus trees.
Such exciting times on the farm and homestead. What a beautiful Calf. Thank you for sharing your videos Sarah and Kevin and sharing your wealth of information. Have a lovely day,
pork chop is a very well balanced animal. !! I hope she does well for years to come !
I just love seeing all the new baby calves and horses each spring out here and of course baby chicks. Working on getting our new permanent garden going. Burning all the weeds then rototilling, fencing it then setting up the rows. We are in Az but up on the white mountain area.
I really like your videos.
Great.
When my cow's are 3rd trimester I bring them in to a calving pasture. Large enough to accommodate all but close enough for me to keep an eye on them.
Calving time is special to my wife and I.
Keep up the good work.
I live in MO as well. I'm excited to see how your citrus fruit trees do!! Such a great idea to try them. I love your channel. Thank you so much for sharing!❤❤
