I live in Texas, I call my place “the Psychguru’s Hobby Farm” I have 4 chickens, and I grow food for the chickens and myself! I’m a psychotherapist, and I offer “ Dirt Therapy” ! Living close to the earth is so therapeutic ! We all need to slow down and live at the speed of real life ! People like you give us all hope for the future! Much love to your family!
Since you like to clean with vinegar, let me make a suggestion. I place orange peels in a jar with vinegar and clean with the new more powerful vinegar. It also has a great scent.
Yup! Orange peels here too...and/or rosemary sprigs are great too!! And a friend recently told me about soaking pine needles in the vinegar as well... maybe that's where 'pine- sol' originally came from?! 🤔
In a time when people show off online and pretend everything is going perfectly, your honesty is a breath of fresh air. And goodness your kids are sweet and cute, y'all doing something right!
I didn't know you all lost a baby. I am so, so sorry. We lost a baby in 2015. That was definitely the hardest year of our lives. Thank you for sharing your authentic hearts. Your story is really encouraging.
@@MikeTheFitFarmer I have had a stillborn son in 1979 and lost another age 21 just ten months after my husband died kn 2000 and 2001. It never goes completely away. I am remarried and hubs and I are glued to your channel. We are 62 and about to move from the suburbs to a cabin in the mountains of VA and it is tiny tiny tiny less than 400 sq feet and we will be terrace gardening. We are finalizing our move from NC to the cabin and will also be doing a greenhouse. Your family is inspiring and we are working hard at becoming more fit and healthy. I recognize the God in your lives even by the names of your children. blessings from our place to yours, juanita mae
The memories and the closeness you share with your beautiful wife and kids, will keep your family so close and bonded. What a blessing to have that. Prayers for your family brother
Friends of my Dad lived in a yurt just like yours. They added another yurt that they bought used and attached it to the main yurt by a breezeway. Keep your eyes and ears out for another yurt and do the same. They made the extra yurt the bedrooms and another bathroom. I loved visiting them during the summer. We all grew up together and still close all these fifty years (or more, lol). They lived in the high desert in California. We so enjoy your videos. Many Blessings and Love from Texas.
Wow! Ive just discovered your channel. I have to say I really love and respect your honesty in describing your journey and experience in embracing your homesteading lifestyle. I'm really sorry to hear about the loss of your unborn baby, that must have been a really challenging time for your family. Thank you for including us all in this journey you have taken. Very informative and enlightening videos for those of us who are considering this lifestyle. Keep up the great work guys!
Good morning, something to truly think about. Like the joy of slamming the phone down after a rant on the phone, can't do that with the cell phones. So slamming the door as you lock yourself up in your "own space" doesn't work in a yurt too. LOL! Truly something to truly think about. Having the right partner is the key to surviving that living situation. It's great that you two found the right person! :) Have a great day.
I also found you through the Rhodes and Hollars. I had noticed that you live in a yurt and I am glad you gave us a tour. I had seen videos of yurt living on U-tube before and I was curious about yours. Thank you for sharing your life with us. You are a great and hard working family. I wish you much success!
Very nice tour of your home yurt! I think it's amazing. Love how you all come together to keep it nice and clean and homey! Blessings from NE Missouri!
Very nice setup 💕 I’m so impressed with the children’s precision cleaning abilities 💯 So sweet unveiling the sink so you could see how clean it is 🥳 The loft will be perfect for your daughter 🙋🏼♀️
@3:01 Sorry for your loss, unfortunately, I know the pain of losing a child and the challenges moving on with life are . Both of you have such bright light in your eyes and love between you that it is so inspiring to hear your story and the beautiful life you have built together as a family despite the dark times.
Happy 4th of July! Found your channel when watching my some of my favorites, The Rhodes, Hollar Homestead, Sow the Land in North Carolina, Lummah Acres, both Weed em and Reap and My Little Homestead in Arizona and Doug and Stacy. Being an armchair builder and farmer all you people keep my life filled with hope of how America is Great and you one farm at a time are making it better all the time. God Bless and thanks for keeping these videos going. My husband always wanted to live in a yurt but it's not in the cards for me so again thanks for sharing...
SOOOOOOOO Glad I found your channel. I Subscribed about five minutes into the first video I saw. I could tell imediately this was something I wanted to watch and keep up with.
I think one of my favorite Parts about your channel and your videos is that you genuinely loved each other as a family and you really do believe in the Lord thank you so much for showing that part of your life a lot of people wouldn't and y'all too and I think that is amazing thing that you do that. I wanted to say thank you just thank you so much for the clean videos that you put out you don't put out crap I can actually let my kids watch this. Thank you and God bless for my family to yours and please keep up the good work we love it when your wife is there all the time is so awesome you got a great family tell them thank you too
Deepest condolences for your huge loss from Ithaca, NY. May you all be blessed. Your videos always make me smile. You both have such lovely, warm hearts.
Your respect for your wife is awesome. You two are such a cute couple. From nothing to paradise...So very sorry for the loss of your child, many blessings for YOUR whole family. God will continue to bless your homestead.
it's so nice to have a nice husband who can help you build such a beautiful dorm and your children are very adorable I was just watching them for a long. Of time trying to study their faces that's so beautiful anyway continue showing your house and you're all just enjoying one another
Lacy and Mike, just love your family. Love to see children that don't mind helping out. They are so cute and sweet. Love the yurt, so cool. Thanks for the tour.
We are living in Georgia and thinking about a Yurt. May I ask what state you live in? I am concerned about high winds here and am curious if you have trouble with that.
Loved this video, but especially enjoyed the arial view of the layout of the property from the drone. I really does look like home. God bless your family with joy.
Hello, My name is Shirley. I watched several of your video's last night and I really do like them. I only follow 3 others and you are the 4th I will be following. I appreciate the time it has taken for you to learn all that you know on your homestead and your home. Thank you for your time and your knowledge. God bless.
Family is a lot about Building itself in every form of life, so as you grow everything grows with you and it’s all made with LOVE to pass on to the future Yurtlife 🥰 I Think it’s Awesome Go Bless you on Your Journey 🙏🏼
Happy Independence Day to the Dicksons. Keep sharing. I absolutely love the strength and level of love within this family. You guys are so inspirational to me. May God continue to bless the Dickson family.
We turned off the internet and cellphones, took the monthly payments we were spending on them and started a savings account for a yurt, it's our 5 year plan. We want a place to go, without electricity and all the distractions, to meet with the Lord and learn many musical instruments, shofars, uke's, bongos, harp, guitars etc and teach our grandchildren how to worship! Blessings to you and your family
Thank you very much. We just want to share our learning lessons so others can benefit and hopefully avoid mistakes we have made as well as prepare them for what to expect.
We are a family of 5 and we also sold our 2200sqft home and downsized to 400sqft. It's an adjustment and does require constant intentional decisions but I wouldn't change it. It makes it possible for our family to have more time together.
I would love to hear more about yurt living and homeschooling! I'm also in love with the way you guys live and so close as a family! Much Love, Misty and Madi 🌼
The sign by your front door reads, “This house is open to God, Sunshine and Friends.” I love you guys! I checked out your channel after you and others blessed the Hollars with your help. You have become one of my favorites. God Bless you all.
Thanks for the tour. Even with the challenges you all have made a great home and have everything that's important. Just to live on your beautiful land and have the lifestyle you have outweighs all the bad 😊
You both are just lovely and wonderful! I am so sorry about the loss of your little one. You both are amazing! I hope your lives are smooth as silk from now on!!
Thanks for sharing this video. I especially appreciated the section on cleaning and organizing spaces. Those topics can be used anywhere you live with kids. Thanks again.
I'd LOVE a yurt! I'm in an RV! LOL. I've been in an RV for 3 years. I am sickofit!! 😜 My kids are older and gone...I think a yurt would be awesome! Y'all have done a fantastic job!
@@jacquelynemerick148 Oh I bet! We have 15 acres and a lot of work to do, but Texas heat keeps me in the RV for all but about 4 hours a day. LOL. I love Fall! C'mon Fall!
@@320homestead9 hey we are in Texas also! So true about the heat. We stay inside except for mornings or later when the sun is going down. The cloudy days are such blessings because then we can go outside more! I'd be outside a little more but it is too hot for my baby right now. Lol small world!
Long live American Freedom! Your Yurt living is a great statement towards that! You know it was quite a compliment to us to share such an intimate peek into your home. That is a pretty awesome setup you all have created! You should be proud of it. Thank You.
Just found your channel a few days ago from Justin Rhodes channel. You may not have much indoor living space but you have it going on and seeing how you did it excites me and encourages me to keep going with my dream. You are blessed in so many ways that the small indoor living space is just a tiny sacrifice for what you have. It is awesome that you have a woman that stands by your side through all this, a very beautiful woman at that. Thank you for showing people what's possible if you make sacrifices and go through with your dreams
We lost a daughter when we were stationed in The Philippines. We understand the challenge of going through that phase of family life. If you have not gone through that experience, you could never really know that horror. I am an American, my wife is a Filipina. We have a small 247 square foot Apartment in Manila and a small home on our very rural,area of The Philippines. Our province is a small islands province in the central part of the archipelago. I really enjoy your channel. Your videos are very straight forward and informative. Your goals are very realistic. Please continue to be safe. God bless America.
Thank you so much for watching Jim we really appreciate it. We are also so very sorry for the loss of your daughter. Blessings to you and your family! God bless!
Me too!! Enjoying your channel and 'getting to know you all!!' We are in the process of fixing our house up (we are in eastern NC) and getting it on the market here (HOPEFULLY!) really soon... (we can see glimmers of light in the tunnel- yayy!) then we are taking our crew (5 out of 6 of us!) in my in- laws RV that we are borrowing and heading 'out west'... western NC that is! 😜 We want to take some time to explore and feel some of the areas out that we think might be a good fit for our family, before we take the full in plunge and settle on a place to begin our homesteading journey! You all are very inspiring!! Thanks so much for opening up your home and your lives to us all!! Blessings to your family!! 💗 PS Your kids are adorable... and I totally want to thank you... I had my kids watch your kids cleaning g up around the house and SMILING while they were helping out and working!! Very effective motivation you provided there! 👍
Check out Justin Rhodes tracktor system. He moves his chickens into area where his two dairy cows and sheep were. The chickens fertilize the area from the other animals and the grass takes off. He recently hooked his tractor to his Four wheeler so saved his back and hangs the food and water on the outside. Then this year, with a lot of land, he has been lucky to set up a watering system that he can use as he moves his fences and animals.
I love y'alls videos, I am learning alot. My sister likes the necklace that your wife wears ( making flu/ cold treatment video). Does she make her own jewlery?
What a struggle you guys have faced! I am so glad ya never gave up! I have only just come across you guys (I am on 2nd episode) I gotta say I am really enjoying your channel so far and I got a feeling I am gonna love it 😍❤️. Thanks for sharing
I live in Texas, I call my place “the Psychguru’s Hobby Farm” I have 4 chickens, and I grow food for the chickens and myself! I’m a psychotherapist, and I offer “ Dirt Therapy” ! Living close to the earth is so therapeutic ! We all need to slow down and live at the speed of real life ! People like you give us all hope for the future! Much love to your family!
Since you like to clean with vinegar, let me make a suggestion. I place orange peels in a jar with vinegar and clean with the new more powerful vinegar. It also has a great scent.
Yup! Orange peels here too...and/or rosemary sprigs are great too!! And a friend recently told me about soaking pine needles in the vinegar as well... maybe that's where 'pine- sol' originally came from?! 🤔
Melissa Peltier I have mint in my flower bed, I’m going to try that 💕
Just started doing that myself, use grapefruit and lemon,lime as well . Love it
What's the ratio to water do u add any water to the vinegar?
@@nataliet129 no water is added. Just place the peels in a jar and cover with vinegar.
Thank you for this video. Most who show off their yurts just paint a rosie picture. Love the honest assessment.
In a time when people show off online and pretend everything is going perfectly, your honesty is a breath of fresh air. And goodness your kids are sweet and cute, y'all doing something right!

The memories and the closeness you share with your beautiful wife and kids, will keep your family so close and bonded. What a blessing to have that. Prayers for your family brother
Just knowing that there are sweet, wonderful people out there like this couple makes me really, truly happy! Great stuff!

You all really took care with your children's names - love them all from Selah to Josiah and Micah. God bless - ;^)
I love what y'all are doing! You two seem so sweet. The yurt functions just like any other home I see, it's really neat.
All I can say is you and Lacey are true survivors. I started my husband Steve watching and he loves the channel as well. Great job kids. God Bless 😀🙏🏾
The children did a great job helping to clean the yurt🌸🌼🌝!
Beautiful babies!!
Incredible how you have squeezed 5 into a tiny yurt ! Well done Mike !
Comfy cozy. The important thing is that you and your family are happy and all your basis needs are met.
Big respect to you all. I’m a single mom and considering doing the same thing for me and my little ones.

I've been in my 30 ft Pacific Yurts yurt since the summer of 2009...and if I had it to do all over I would do it again in a heartbeat.
We are living in Georgia and thinking about a Yurt. May I ask what state you live in? I am concerned about high winds here and am curious if you have trouble with that.
Thanks Mike and Lacey for the tour of the yurt. You've successfully shown how people can live within means in a cozy and comfortable home...!

Your family is beautiful and inspirational
Thank you so much
Very brave of you guys to share your ups and downs. I admire the fact that you are both still very positive .

Good information. First saw you on The Hollar Homestead demo day in NC.
Greetings! Thanks for watching and following along.
Me too!! Enjoying your channel and 'getting to know you all!!'
We are in the process of fixing our house up (we are in eastern NC) and getting it on the market here (HOPEFULLY!) really soon... (we can see glimmers of light in the tunnel- yayy!) then we are taking our crew (5 out of 6 of us!) in my in- laws RV that we are borrowing and heading 'out west'... western NC that is! 😜
We want to take some time to explore and feel some of the areas out that we think might be a good fit for our family, before we take the full in plunge and settle on a place to begin our homesteading journey!
You all are very inspiring!! Thanks so much for opening up your home and your lives to us all!! Blessings to your family!! 💗

Loved your charming characters and presentation of your home. Never knew a yurt could be great home! God Bless from a fan in Japan
I can see the intense sadness in both of you on your loss. 🙏🏻🙏🏻😢 . Watching all your videos, or should I say catching up on past videos.
You guys are the best....!!!! Love your homestead!!!!

I love y'alls videos, I am learning alot. My sister likes the necklace that your wife wears ( making flu/ cold treatment video). Does she make her own jewlery?
Great video, love the layout you’ve done really utilize all the space while still keeping open areas too.
