So glad to see you guys getting together again. So, fun watching all the kids interact. Love the story of the city kids not knowing about goats. You guys are so funny.
That was so nice. What a nice visit and to bring them goats too, friends and neighbours in a beautiful setting. City life is so different, almost grey compared to the fresh, bright and vibrant countryside. Thank you for sharing, enjoy your videos.
You guys are great! I love seeing your two families together, the kids love playing with each other and you adults just seem to have such great connections with your personalities. Thank you for sharing your visit with the Rhodes family.
That was so sweet bringing the goats for a surprise. The kids sure had a good time seeing each other again. We have goats and some days I do want to give them away because they can be such a handful, but yours look like they mind very well. Enjoy your family videos
I wish I had the energy and inclination that your families do. I always wanted a mini homestead. BUT. I'm aware of my physical be limitations. my critters wouldn't be as happy as they could be... no harm in admitting it. congrats families. you're doing a beautiful job with your human babies and fluffy babies.
BEAUTIFUL VLOG It is so heart warming to see you all together... So glad you got to visit Justin, Rebekah and their Chiddlers... All the kids together was great fun... Gracie you are such a wonderful big sister (you are a beautiful, remarkable girl! ... Joyful is so cute! The girls are growing up - so fast... as are the boys... Justice is getting VERY SMART (if he does say so himself !) And Bright Boy is becoming a toddler and so NOT a tiny baby anymore... Eating off the plates as he walks around! What a HOOT :) A JOYFILLED day to be sure Blessings to you all....
Very fun, watching kids reaction to the milk. Thanks for sharing this trip to Rhodes farm & family. Having just watched the RV update, it was a cool time trip of your family, since kinda new to your site.
I wish we could use a post hole digger. We have two many rocks. Great soil once the rocks are out though. I love that you carry the goats in the back of the car. They seem potty trained. What a beautiful day with two beautiful families.
Ah the milk tasting! We got our first goat when we went to a dairy farm when I was ten for a horse trail ride and found a lost dairy goat wandering in the forest. When we came back a year later we had a small herd milking. The dairy family proudly gave me a glass of jersey milk; because the cram had separated I asked my mother if they put water in their milk.
When I first got goats, id heard about all the bad tasting milk complaints against having goats to milk. SOI found a tiny fridge and put it in the barn. I put the goat bucket in the freezer in the house. When I was ready to milk, I would take the bucket out of the freezer in the house and take it to the fridge in the barn. Then id put the grain into the manger and get a goat up, locked in and ready to milk. Then id take the bucket out of the fridge and milk her. When done, id put the bucket of milk back into the fridge. I did this with all 6 goats. Then when finished milking, I would then take the milk buckets back to the house and put the milk into another bucket that had been kept in the freezer. id put it back into the freezer for an hour, then decant it into whatever. I NEVER had but the best tasting and coldest milk one could want.
That was a fun day ! Art, it looked like a lot of work digging the fence pole hole. Are you getting close to putting up the fence? ... Thanks for the ride in the countryside. The children play well together, Love your music choice...
I wish I could give two thumbs up!!! This was so heartwarming for me to watch! Rowan was amazed that the friends that he met when "Justin Rhodes" came to our house got to play with his friends from our video calls with Bri! I will definitely be coming up there to visit y'all when Justin and Rebekah come back home for good so all our kids can play together! I just love all y'all and your beautiful friendship and families! Also, really great editing on this one! especially when you had timelapses if dinner mixed with kids playing! You need to teach me your magic! xoxoxo
So nice to see you visiting over at the Rhodes' holler! So funny taking the goats over! And to see all the kiddos lined up for goat milk-and assurance it DOESN'T taste like goat hair, lol! Grateful you all had a nice visit.
It's so entertaining to see Justin on other people's vlogs. On his own, he's really outgoing and energetic and then on here he's much quieter and sort of sarcastic. I'm amazed lol. And the title made me think you were trying to trade the goats for some kune kune piglets in the future. Have you guys considered the American Guinea Hog? I want to eventually do a herd of AGH/KK mixes for the meat production and how little food they eat since they both forage so well. Another great day on your homestead! - Jacob
That was fun!! Love both families and have been following you guys from the beginning on Justin's recommendation. Great idea taking the goats and the milk, could see the wheels turning in Rebecah's head about maybe getting Nigerian and Nubian goats when their tour is over. lol
I worked on a farm and they had goats and not one over ate and we left them wondering in long grass and let them get as much as they like and we did lock them up cuz it was sunny ad hot we let them go in the shad when they wanted to
This was fun to watch two different vantage points of the same day! (Yours and the Rhodes channel!) I'm sure the goats shocked them lol Fresh milk everyday would be cool though
We moved to a different state last summer. Friends were kind enough to keep our goats till we got settled and were able to had shelter and fencing for them Took 5 months just to find a house with land. ( we lived in our 5th wheel) . We are now about to go back and get our goats at the end of the month. I am so excited to see them again.
I grew up with my grandmother in the rural part of Nigeria. She raised a lot of goats, but never milked them for drinking. We depended on powdered and canned milk from the market. When I came to the United States forty years, I was surprised that farmers actually milk their cows and goats for consumption.
LOL! I think they could have got a little trailer and pulled it behind the car.. Fresh goat milk and homemade cheese every day! But seriously you would miss those babies if they took them!! Blessings!
216 episodes can you believe it? I have watched from the beginning of your journey and you just delight me how you and your family have grown! I especially love you landscape footage it is marvelous. Oh! And you music. You are so much fun I would love to get goats! Thanks always for sharing ❤️👭👬🐔🐥🐐🌻🦄❤️🎬
we love love love goat milk and I just had a quick thought that in the first part of the video I saw you through some grass clippings into your goat area. Does that fresh green grass change the taste of the milk? Milk is all about what the animal is eating and was just curious on that. Well done on the videos!
Oh my. I'm pretty sure I heard Bri say she's looking for a miniature Jersey. That would be so cool. I'd love to watch that adventure. It's a dream of mine. My two biggest roadblocks are where I could get a good one in my area and could I really, really, really commit to milking daily.
Sandy Rees OH MY GOSH!! Could you imagine her getting a mini cow in the back of their minivan!? Heehee!! I want one too... but it will definitely be a couple years for us!! :)
I love your goats!! Can't wait to get my own! Unfortunately we are only on a half acre right now. But when we move in a couple years, we plan to get some!! :)
Hey Art how deep did you dig the hole and did u have to use cement for the posts?? I am planning a garden fence and Being not to good of shape like young guys like you I need try an easy and economical way. I don't have a ;lot of woods but on a corner of my property I have a lot of two inch saplings thinking some of those with electric wire,
To us it really doesn't taste much different when you compare it to store bought cow milk. However, we had some fresh cow milk a couple of weeks ago and the taste was different. It wasn't that the goat's milk didn't taste good. The difference was that the fresh cow milk was extremely creamy and rich. It was like eating dessert. SO delicious. Flavors can vary greatly in goat milk. It depends on a few factors. Type of goat, handling, if there is a buck, freshness etc...
Joshua Harris Vlogs it really shouldn't taste very different, just different cream levels really. If got milk is handled improperly in milking cooling storage stage it can taste different. and if it's old it can taste more goaty.
Bri, is the milk better because of Nigerian, or Nubian? Or is it a mix that makes it taste better? I also love Jerseys, you gonna have fun. Great video, thanks.
OK this is helping me be more open to goat milk. I think milk in general is gross, but even the cheese my husband made tasted goaty. Have you thought any more about getting a cream separator? I really want the opinion of someone I "know" on it (even if it's just interknowing), not just random internet stuff.
Well good morning! We aren't usually on at the same time :) I'm exited to hear how you choose your cow. We are looking at mini zebus but I'd really love a Jersey or Jersey/zebu cross. It's all about dat cream, baby! And adaptability to the desert :/
See I was like Justin, I tried Goats Milk from 2 places, from the local Grocery store, and my a Boer/Spanish Goat, not taste, and it smells like Goat.. Have you tried to make yogurt or cheese with the Goat Milk?
I want to move out where you guys are. We could be neighbors... if you don't mind having an elephant for a neighbor... Skiggle dee gee, skiggle dee go, skiggle dee gee and a go go GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you ART and BRI I enjoyed your video and I love so much your video homestead 🐔🐓🐥🐈🐕🐖🌱🐐🐄🎥👍👍👍
I love watching the kids. They are energetic and such good helpers. The little goats are a riot to watch too!
So glad to see you guys getting together again. So, fun watching all the kids interact. Love the story of the city kids not knowing about goats. You guys are so funny.
That was so nice. What a nice visit and to bring them goats too, friends and neighbours in a beautiful setting. City life is so different, almost grey compared to the fresh, bright and vibrant countryside. Thank you for sharing, enjoy your videos.
am happy to see you guys sharing so much love and care towards each other. it's amazing to see the kids enjoying themselves.. 👍👍
Spending time with friends is always enjoyable
great vlog and super great to see you with the Rhodes family. Fun joke, too!
Good friends are like good goat milk............ wonderful!
You guys are great! I love seeing your two families together, the kids love playing with each other and you adults just seem to have such great connections with your personalities. Thank you for sharing your visit with the Rhodes family.
That was so sweet bringing the goats for a surprise. The kids sure had a good time seeing each other again. We have goats and some days I do want to give them away because they can be such a handful, but yours look like they mind very well. Enjoy your family videos
The first time I saw either of you Justin was bringing you the chickens. It's nice to see you together again.
I wish I had the energy and inclination that your families do. I always wanted a mini homestead. BUT. I'm aware of my physical be limitations. my critters wouldn't be as happy as they could be... no harm in admitting it. congrats families. you're doing a beautiful job with your human babies and fluffy babies.

This is a pretty rocky area but of course there are worse. Fortunately with this hole I did not hit any big ones.
Awww! Sweet Friends ForEver!
Can't wait to see Justin back home raising animals again
I hope by watching your videos, I can be a little support. Thanks for sharing!

It was really nice to see you guys all together...2 beautiful families & good friends. ;)
Watching you load the goats into your van reminded me of my mom. She would haul goats in the back of her Ford Pinto. Fun memories!
So sweet. Glad you guys could connect with them!
I love al your videos its soooooo interesting to watch n Thanks a lot for sharing with us.

Still got a lot of holes to dig. Just trying to do some every day.

Maravilloso encuentro entre dos de mis favorito granjeros.
your stall is so pretty...funny things homesteaders notice...
City slickers got no clue what they are missing.
God bless you all....
My two favorite vlog families
GREAT montage sequence with dinner!! Love that you edited some normal clips with sound over your timelapse! So awesome. :)
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
How did I miss this lol . What a great thing to pull on them😂😂😂😂😂😂
You all looked like you had a great time. Thanks for sharing :)
That was fun!! Love both families and have been following you guys from the beginning on Justin's recommendation. Great idea taking the goats and the milk, could see the wheels turning in Rebecah's head about maybe getting Nigerian and Nubian goats when their tour is over. lol
Great Video ! I love that area around Asheville, NC.
the beautiful video that I have ever seen ...
3 's of LIFE
FAMILY
FRIENDS

Grace says she like this comment. :)
Y'all are crazy like us transporting oats in your van! LOl
I worked on a farm and they had goats and not one over ate and we left them wondering in long grass and let them get as much as they like and we did lock them up cuz it was sunny ad hot we let them go in the shad when they wanted to
That was rather cute, watching the goats "walking" the girls .
well done guys loads of love❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This was fun to watch two different vantage points of the same day! (Yours and the Rhodes channel!) I'm sure the goats shocked them lol Fresh milk everyday would be cool though
We moved to a different state last summer.

We are now about to go back and get our goats at the end of the month. I am so excited to see them again.
Glad you have such friends. Cool story.
Ahhhh so I finally get to see the other viewpoint of that goat surprise. LOL
I grew up with my grandmother in the rural part of Nigeria. She raised a lot of goats, but never milked them for drinking. We depended on powdered and canned milk from the market. When I came to the United States forty years, I was surprised that farmers actually milk their cows and goats for consumption.
LOL! I think they could have got a little trailer and pulled it behind the car.. Fresh goat milk and homemade cheese every day! But seriously you would miss those babies if they took them!! Blessings!
Lots of fun...
we would LOVE to see 30 things about y'all!!! no pressure we know your super busy
That would be awesome! I agree
216 episodes can you believe it? I have watched from the beginning of your journey and you just delight me how you and your family have grown! I especially love you landscape footage it is marvelous. Oh! And you music. You are so much fun I would love to get goats! Thanks always for sharing ❤️👭👬🐔🐥🐐🌻🦄❤️🎬
Yea, so many. It has just flown by.
Did that little girl just man handle that goat?!
Holy... Keep drinking your milk kiddo! It's obviously working...
nice video, thanks!
amazing goats
we love love love goat milk and I just had a quick thought that in the first part of the video I saw you through some grass clippings into your goat area. Does that fresh green grass change the taste of the milk? Milk is all about what the animal is eating and was just curious on that. Well done on the videos!
I have heard that what they eat can change the flavor. So far their milk is sweet and creamy.
Thats great hope it stays that way you have an awesome bunch there!
It was great seeing you all together once again !

Sandy Rees OH MY GOSH!! Could you imagine her getting a mini cow in the back of their minivan!? Heehee!! I want one too... but it will definitely be a couple years for us!! :)
Haha. I am *thinking* of getting a Mini Jersey, BUT I would probably need to get a truck at that point!
That's a fun thought. Bri getting a cow in the back of her minivan. Could go viral.
Great video
I love your goats!! Can't wait to get my own! Unfortunately we are only on a half acre right now. But when we move in a couple years, we plan to get some!! :)
nice video!
kool video
Hey Art how deep did you dig the hole and did u have to use cement for the posts?? I am planning a garden fence and Being not to good of shape like young guys like you I need try an easy and economical way. I don't have a ;lot of woods but on a corner of my property I have a lot of two inch saplings thinking some of those with electric wire,
3 ft. Line posts will not all go that deep. No concrete unless I hit shallow rock and have to go shallow.
WE LOVE FAMILY BUSINESSES
SORRY, PUT THIS ON THE WRONG SITE FOR A CONTEST. SHOULD OF GONE ON OFF GRID WITH DOUG AND STACY
bwhahahahaha =) you so funny
Was looking forward to this video! :)
I ALMOST had a mini heart attack when it said you were trying to give the goats away though! loool
#COCOACLUB
The only time I like goat milk is in tea not on its own lol
Do you guys have naturally wonderfully green and thick grass or do you do something to it to help it along?
Its about that green all year except late summer.
lucky you! In fall and winter ours is covered in feet of snow, brown at the end of summer and green in the spring. :)
I used to have neighbors from Greece who made the best goat cheese I have ever had. Is the milk taste any different from cows milk?
big difference
To us it really doesn't taste much different when you compare it to store bought cow milk. However, we had some fresh cow milk a couple of weeks ago and the taste was different. It wasn't that the goat's milk didn't taste good. The difference was that the fresh cow milk was extremely creamy and rich. It was like eating dessert. SO delicious.

The guy in cap is one good lookin fella
vlogception!
i live goats!! we had 200 at one time .. they all have there own personalities. city children miss out
lol you guys are awesone!
wish our buck would get the "memo" on not peeing in the van! ugg
Bri, is the milk better because of Nigerian, or Nubian? Or is it a mix that makes it taste better?
I also love Jerseys, you gonna have fun.
Great video, thanks.
cute

I really want the opinion of someone I "know" on it (even if it's just interknowing), not just random internet stuff.
I am most likely not going to get a cream separator because we are planning on buying a cow as soon as we can.
Well good morning! We aren't usually on at the same time :) I'm exited to hear how you choose your cow. We are looking at mini zebus but I'd really love a Jersey or Jersey/zebu cross. It's all about dat cream, baby! And adaptability to the desert :/
Yes, we are looking at Jerseys and Mini Jerseys.
I have drank store bought goat milk before and it tastes extremely goaty. Our milk tastes sweet and creamy with no goat flavor.
What's UHT?
See I was like Justin, I tried Goats Milk from 2 places, from the local Grocery store, and my a Boer/Spanish Goat, not taste, and it smells like Goat.. Have you tried to make yogurt or cheese with the Goat Milk?
Yes, I have been making cheese. :)
I want to move out where you guys are. We could be neighbors... if you don't mind having an elephant for a neighbor... Skiggle dee gee, skiggle dee go, skiggle dee gee and a go go GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Makes me want to try goats milk.
Why are the Rhodes back home?
They were home for a few days in between trips to drop off some things and head back out.
Are art and Justin brothers? How did you meet them?
They looks similar...
