I am 71 husband is 65 disabled since he was 42! My heart is so happy when watching u. Wish we had made different decisions in life… Don’t ever change what u are doing! Many memories!!! U are an amazing family!!❤❤
I just posted Zach & Jen a message that is almost like yours, both my husband & myself are disabled & I wish we had made different decisions in our lives as well, my husband will be 68 in July & I just turned 66 in March... wish we had a plot of land & a few chickens... if you have a mind to it....... look up my posting & read what I just wrote & then I slipped down a few postings & found yours......We both are living our lives through Zach & Jen's life I'm guessing.... Take care my friend.....take care....
Kathy and Adele …. Likewise. My beloved husband passed in 2020. I so wish we had opted for the simple family life. ❤❤
I am very busy sound the house and outside. Things keep being more difficult for him. I love watching Stivers … I could watch 24/7. My Justus a very bad diabetic and things cost so much for him. But I’m putting Them on my Christmas list! I planted a good size hard this year. It has all done well but my tomatoes. Not sure why. We live in Southwest Iowa on 3 acres that he was raised on. 2 brother in laws as well. We had a two story old farmhouse we lived in for thirty years on a lonely gravel road. Decided we need to get closer to paved road and put up a modular home and 3 car garage. Wish I was back at old home.
I'd love to see the old barns restored.
The first thing my husband does when we move is to put up a clothesline. My favorite chore is hanging out the laundry. When our granddaughter was 4, i was out hanging clothes and she said "grandma, why do you hang your clothes outside? I said, because they smell so good. She said yeah, they smell like 🌞 sunshine." Every time since then when I am hanging clothes, I think of that. Thanks for the tour! I am new to your channel and very glad I found it. ❤😊
I can't believe it's been 3 years already since you guys moved. I've been watching your videos since quite some time before that. Time sure does fly.
Beautiful property being a new homesteader I appreciate how you teach us while you’re giving your tour. You make things so easy to understand and you’re very matter of fact. I took notes on the goats parasite topic and the petting zoo it was very useful I also have turkeys, goats, Kunekune pigs 33 layers and 16 Cornish Cross 2 kids that homeschool ❤you guys are awesome thx
I have lived in ky all my life. Every time I went to other States, I am so glad to get back to Kentucky.
I don't believe there's much flatland, But the land is so durable. Rich soil, Our trees are beautiful. The air is different. Always so glad to be home.
You have to watch out for bobcats and coyotes, when hunting.. Blackbear is starting to come in to Kentucky. But they scare easy. So far.
Kentucky just feels more like God's country.
Blessings to you and your Homestead
Zach and Jen, you have a beautiful homestead. It truly shows that you are true stewards of your land and animals. Thanks for sharing and education.
You’re allergy tincture has saved me this season! I’m able to be outside all day without suffering so badly. ❤🙏
Thank you so much for taking us on a tour of your homeplace. It is absolutely gorgeous!!! I love it!!!
That's the prettiest cow.
Barn restoration, animals, Garden everything!❤❤
Thank you for opening your world with us. Great place!
Enjoyed the farm tour even though I see it all the time. Such a beautiful place to raise your family!
Thank you for your awesome tour! It is a beautiful place. You can tell there is an enormous amount of labor to accomplish the beauty.
👍👍👍
I love your enthusiasm...its a beautiful place! You guys have not only brought it back to life, but you have made it a great place for your children to grow up. Keep up the good work!
Zach & Jen: you have a beautiful homestead and you can tell that y’all have put a lot of love and labor into it. Love this tour.
I would like to see that barn restored. I love old barns. Your place is beautiful.
It’s absolutely beautiful! I loved the tour, I was surprised to see the other barn separate from the one normally see . You are definitely blessed!
I would love to see you guys do a foraging video in your woods. 😊
Such a beautiful form I've been following you for years now and I love the creativity you have and the ability to work through things your family is awesome. Beautiful loving and kind
It's a beautiful place so happy for you all❤
We have 40 acres and are trying to get our cabin built. The last few years have been a challenge with stuff getting in the way.
We are trying to get there this year. We live the peacefulness of the remoteness of the property. We are still doing what we can where we are ed at now.
Your place is my favorite homestead I love how it is laid out you two are blessed keep doing what you do ❤
Just had an idea pop in mind when ya mentioned "help with Jenny's Farm Stand!! Have yall thought about maybe putting an ad out or word around at some of your near by farm related stores of maybe a teenager that lives near you to hire to just be in the store? Maybe even a retiree just looking for a little extra income! Of course, if your financially able to. Love your farm, family and videos. Yall have an absolute slice of heaven right there on your Homestead! ❤
When I saw they were wanting to someone to work in store 🙃 I was like oooh that would be awesome then I realized it's in Kentucky which is fine but I'm not retired yet..couple years to go lol beautiful farm dream to be in a place like theirs.
❤Thank you - that was a great tour! How did you all find your property? Did you have a farm realtor, or just look online…? And did you already know that you wanted to be in that specific town, or was it the property itself that made you buy in that area/town?❤ God bless!❤
So much done in 3 years! The place is amazing! Thanks for the tour.
I have 24 acres. But I never could afford mowers or fencing. After my husband died, I got behind with garden and orchard etc, had to work outside the home. Now the invasive trees are taking over everything. I have mobility challenges now too. The place has so much potential.
I'll take 5 acres and work the property for you. Win win
@@pamelavance648 How do you feel about Northern Indiana?
I am looking forward to the rebuild of the old barn
Wonderful video! What a beautiful farm. Thanks for taking us on a walk around.
cloths lines are a must..nothing like freshly bleached white cotton sheets line dried..I even hang out in the winter..one of the best creature comforts..lol
I loved your farm from the beginning, I can't believe it's been 3 years already. It looked so pretty in todays video.
I love you are restoring the old farm
Everything looks beautiful. Seems like yesterday you were sitting on your pole barn front porch telling us about that farm. Time flies by when you're having fun. Stay safe, stay well.
You have a beautiful place. Thanks for the tour 😊
It's crazy how much the store has changed since opened
That's the Aussie way, drying our clothes on the clothesline :) You two did a great job building your homestead. I love the add ons, you know the shop, fence, garden, and animals. I love the woody area too.
Wow! Your farm has come a long way since you first moved there. Y'all have done a great job!
I'm in South Central KY and yes, green is vital with all the rain. Have y'all tried black walnut pie? Same recipe as pecan but with black walnuts! Yummy!!! One of my favorites in the fall.
Several years ago when I first started watching your homestead videos from your previous homestead you used the Old Kentucky Home song. I would love to hear the song again as you open your videos. Thank you in advance.
Thank you for showing your farm and love your petting zoo
What a beautiful homestead. I love every sq Ft.
Black Walnut ice cream is delicious! That is just one of those childhood memories! 😊
Took me down memory lane
Family The lovedays in fontana calif. Had black walnuts and yep remember the ice cream. My that was 55 yrs ago yep awhile ago. Your comment jogged a memory many moons ago lol
Having a remember when moment
Have a beautiful day
Love it! We just started and we love the Homesteaders community! We will be documenting our journey as well!
-J.
I agree with the shade on the garden. My plants do so much better. I am in Az, and shade is essential. I grow almost year-round because of it.
Absolutely gorgeous but I got lost for a minute when your dog was going after the cat! LOL I was like, "Oh no!". You guys have done an amazing job and may Father continue to bless you. Thanks so much for sharing. Much love.
Land is life!
You. Guys have done such a beautiful job there, I love it
Beautiful farm ,,you’ve done a lot of work enjoy your videos
What a beautiful place you have! God has blessed y'all for sure y'all are living my dream! That's why I'm watching😆 Blessings from middle Tennessee!
It is a gorgeous farm . Thank you for showing it
So peaceful and beautiful!! Is Jen's brother still working on the farm? Haven't heard him mentioned since your Mom moved. Kentucky is gorgeous!!!!
It showed her brother in this episode, he was just far away. He is the one Zach was talking to when he said to put the dog in the barn yard. It's nice that they have someone to help them. Having a homestead it a lot of work.
@@melissahines5718 I mustve missed that, thanks! With all that they have to do to keep the farm going, they are definitely blessed to have family there to help out! I do miss Jed's comments he was putting in some of the past videos tho... hilarious!!
Awesome! You have done so much in the short time you’ve been there.
Blessings, 😊💕🙏🏻🇨🇦
What a beautiful place. Kentucky is a nice place.
Beautiful property!
Thank you so much for showing us around
10/31/2020 was the very first vlog that I've ever watched, & that was when all of your goats went missing, Man what a time to start watching you guys, it did hook me into your lives, I had to keep coming back to see what the outcome was... I'm saying all of this, because I have seen BIG CHANGES in your farm, in the Kids & in your lives........
You guys are amazing, one of these days I'm going to have to have a Stivers fun filled day & go back & watch all of your postings I'll just have to make a day of it & watch them back to back... I wonder what that would do to your ratings... if it would harm you guys let me know & I won't do that.... I wouldn't want to do anything that would harm you guys or your ratings...So if you read this posting PLEASE LET ME KNOW.... I wouldn't think that it would, but then I don't know how all of these things work...
You both have put a lot of BLOOD/SWEAT & TEARS into your Homestead, you should be very PROUD of all that you've done.
My husband & I are looking into trying to buy a plot of land & a house, but there are a lot of loopholes that we're having to deal with, so if you have a mind to it please pray that God will have compassion upon us & allow us to find that special place that he's hand picked out just for us.
We're both up there in years Tim is going to turn 68 in July & needless to say we're both so out of shape that it's not even funny. Well to be honest we both are disabled & have a lot of health iss. so we can't get to big of a place, because neither one of us could take care of a large place. I'd just like to be able to have a few chickens, we pretty much can't afford to have any other farm animals, because we simply couldn't take care of them nor could we afford the VET bills....
Why am I telling you all of this? I guess because its 3:55AM. & I'm feeling Happy for you & a let down for us, you've made something out of your lives and have such an awesome homestead to show for it & I'm very PROUD of you both. & I'm feeling sorta bad about our lives, because we've not started out this adventure in a better way..... but then our lives were so different when we started off this journey back in 1998.... We can't cry over the past & since so much water has crossed over the bridge we can only work with what we now have now & with what little time we have left on this earth....Love you both very much!!!
Let me know about watching your postings back to back...................................
Zack, I love the fencing you built...the posts cut at a slant to let water run off, preventing rot. Looks like a very secure fence for the animals. and very bucolic look. Thanks for the homestead tour.
Beautiful property.
We love our Guinea’s they are a great addition. Your property is beautiful and meant for your wonderful family. You can adopt feral fixed barn cats for your property as well, we have a great program in Florida rescuing them.
A foraging video would be kinda cool to see.
Good video. So many others go thru the property too fast . Thanks for taking the time to let us soak it all in ❤
I do appreciate visiting your page when you celebrate Hollidays!
Absolutely Beautiful and amazing!!!
Beautiful, a labor of love!!!
Nice video. Good to see most of the property in one session. I can see why you love your place.
stunning
Wow your grass is so lush. I love your property
One day!
Absolutely Beautiful
Thanks for the tour! I really enjoyed seeing everything.
Thanks!
I never realized how big your farm is!!!..what u have done in 3 yrs is impressive!!!.. other videos u didn’t realize when u were in a area and even tho we could see around the farm u don’t realize that there was so much more ..you know so much about it all too that I never thought to look at when we were buying.I wish u had done this Video long ago hehe..I’ll never look at a overgrown land again…it’s always been a beautiful farm but now seeing it all ,it’s breathtakingly gorgeous..thanks for sharing all your hard work and the outcome u have achieved,..Hi to JEN🩷
I enjoyed this video of the farm 🌱🌱🌱🌱
Y’all have a beautiful homestead!
You accomplished a lot in a short time 😉 Beautiful ❤️
This a very informative video Zach. You can tell that you and Jenn have put a lot of love and sweat equity into your homestead as it is beautiful. The gardens are beautiful as well as your home and your whole property! I enjoyed the petting zoo parasite info. Would love to learn more about that. I can certainly see why you and Jenn love it there. Wishing you and your family a healthy and prosperous future on your homestead.
Very nice layout, love the wood fences you did and Jen's farm stand. Nice to have the airbnb too for extra income. Lots of work but you are reaping the benefits instead of making someone else rich.
Blessings
Good stuff and way to put that 12 achers to good use. I love it 👍
Loved the video 👍
Wow really pretty home and land. And the trees oh my goodness. And the second home is amazing, What a super nice farm. My first time watching your video and I must say you have a lovely place. Very good video.
Our fence here had a good sized blue bird on it.
I had Guinea before in a small urban house in Puerto Rico. I eat that meat before but I never see the white ones they are beautiful. I enjoyed your tour.
Glad to positive subject matter like we subscribed to!! Looks beautiful!
such a beautiful farm...thanks for the tour.
Great property! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome, farm yall are very blessed.
What happened to the miniature pony? Also, the farm is beautiful. Spring might be my favorite season for your homestead.
Very informative, not too long. You have done a beautiful job developing it.
