You reap what you sow, and I think you two are examples of attracting the right partner into your life. Y'all have a wonderful dynamic and clear respect for each other.
I especially like the fall at the end. Ariel was just waiting for Eric to turn around and see her on the ground. It was sweet when he came and picked her up.❤️ Especially since she is badass and obviously could have done it herself. 😁
Good thing she didn't fall in front the shredder.. that would of been bad. I worked as a vol fire rescue and worked a few accidents that parts are all of folks that went through one
This video gives me nightmare flashbacks to when I was a kid. We heated with wood and my dad always had land that he wanted to build a cabin on and the work was massive. I lost every fingernail on both hands except for one pointer finger getting my fingers stuck between logs. (not all at the same time) Doing it as an adult didn't bother me much but as a kid it was awful. Still, I thank you for the video. It's much more fun to watch you work than it was to do it.
For stumps outside the driveway area that you don't need to pull you can inoculate with the right fungi for the wood type to turn them into mushroom farms. The stump rots faster and you get spots to hunt for mushrooms. Just need to check the local trees for the right fungi type.
I've never seen 2 people who work so hard and so well together. You are blessed to have each other. May you be even more Blessed with all that you deserve 🙏 I love your channel ❤
I recently found your channel. I have been watching all your videos. I keep worrying that I am going to run out of videos before you put out another one. You two have so much energy. All those stumps. So sad the number of infected trees that were killed off. I am sure whatever your plans are for the new land will no doubt nurture new growth of healthy flora. Poor Bo just does his best to keep up. I freaking laughed out loud when Ariel fell down and waited for Eric to notice. Sorry Ariel I am one of those friends who laugh before I can assist when my friend falls down.
So I just found your Channel and binged the last 2 years. I was born in Alaska and left just about the time you guys moved there. I do love watching your Channel and it makes me less homesick. I left mostly to be closer to my extended family that lived on the East Coast and to experience things like Broadway and Comic-Con. I do plan to move back in a decade or so. I had some suggestions from my own experiences. For the shower most of the places that I've experienced but have no indoor plumbing use a Banya instead. It's like a wood stove sauna a Sweat House. With the Sawmill you have you can probably make one pretty cheap for just the price of an old stove. Sometimes you can find them that need to be refurbished pretty cheap or even for free. They are the most awesome thing in the world. Also I think one of the coolest things to show the rest of the world about Alaska's farming community is the State Fair's big cabbages and pumpkins so maybe next year in the fall you can take your channel there. And one of my favorite crops for Alaska is rhubarb perennial grows really well and is very tasty. And I must say for tenderfoots you guys did really well and I enjoy your Channel.
I also just had another thought I know wood stoves give out a lot of heat, and some of that heat is in the stove pipe. I don't think you would lose much heat to your cabin if you put a corner in your stove pipe and ran it up the side of cabin. Then you could build a lean-to around the stove pipe making it heated. I don't think it would get as hot as the cabin but definitely warm enough to store your water tank and canned goods through the winter. Also I've noticed that you're good at scrounging windows so you could probably keep your view and start seeds in there too.
@@joelahn6269 By giving the wood much more surface area, it does break down faster. Putting the wood chips on pathways will help keep mud and weeds down. It also will help define your paths.
I live in the city limits of my little town in Florida, years ago I had 7 100ft pines and a huge oak tree cut down in my backyard. We took part of my chainlink fence down so they could maneuver this huge crane truck into the yard behind my house. They had a truck with a dump bed and a chipper a few sizes larger than Eric was using. They had a tree man they would put up in the branches of the pines, he would hook a barbed chain to the treetop then cut it with a chainsaw. The crane man would swing the top over my house and lay it down at the base of the chipper. The chipper had hooks that would help feed it into the chipper. Then the guy would shimmy down the tree and cut it at the stump. Then the crane man would lay the whole probably still 80ft tree down in the yard. They did the oak tree basically the same way. They took the canopy of it in 3 pieces, then cut the tree about 2 foot from the ground. He did all the while lifting it over my power drop line. They started that morning at 8am, by 3pm that afternoon, they had all 7 pines and the oak tree on the ground. They cut the trunks up into manageable pieces and came back the next day to load them up. They ground the stumps and level where the ground had gotten torn up with the skid steer. I noticed the tree man walked with a limp so I asked on of the other guys did he have knee problems. He said he had ankle/knee/hip problems because he had fallen out of a 100ft pine and shattered the joints of his right leg. And also had to have extreme surgeries on his face where he had crushed his cheekbones. I’m scared of heights to begin with, it gave me goosebumps watching them in the tops of those trees. After a fall like he had, I would have been far away from a tree.
Watching this video made me think of just how hard our pioneers and settlers had to work. And, they did not have a chipper. Boy, we sure have become soft as a nation. Of course, you two are an exception.
There is an old joke about a couple of first time hunters who actually were able to bag a nicely antlered buck and grabbed it by the hind-hooves to drag it to their truck. The antlers would catch in the brush and they would have to tug and yank and sit down often to restore their energy. An experienced hunter happened by and after watching their struggles suggested that it would be a lot easier if they were to drag the buck by its antlers. So they tried it. About a half hour later, one remarked, "That guy was right! This is sure a lot easier." The second responded, "Yeah, but we are sure getting a long way from the pickup!" I think the chipper works better when you feed the bottom end of a branch in first.... I could be wrong. 8^)
Love that you added some humor to your suggestion :) Although we often come across people that have good suggestions regarding the way we do things, it is always easier to listen to when presented in a thoughtful way :)
I love this channel so much, from the very beginning. When I was a kid I always fancied Grizzly Adams’ lifestyle, should have gone for it. Keep it up guys, you bring a lot of peace and joy. Best wishes always.
As always, just love your videos. We're at 6 months and counting before our move to Fairbanks from Washington state! The music you play in your videos is always appropriate and just wonderful. Thanks for your efforts to share your adventures and everyday life with us.
Another lovely movie. You’re to be commended for both your hard physical labor and your creative work putting together a beautiful film about wood chipping. Who knew wood chipping could be so mesmerizing? Great choice of music, too!
Next fermenting day, add lots of fresh dill to your cabbage and salt. So delicious. Also if you thinly slice your carrots into rounds, add fresh dill, and brine. Makes such a delicious pickle.
You two, by far had the best garden yield. Your meals look absolutely wonderful too. It just amazes me all the canning and meat prepping you do, so easily. No matter how daunting the job is, you both team up to get it done. I've been watching for a while. Can you tell? Thanks for the high-quality videos. Please keep them coming for those of us living vicariously thru' you both.
I loved the ending. I am just the same. I would have waited to to be hauled up. Even though I could have gotten up. And my husband would have sauntered over to. But he would have said what the hell is wrong with you and pulled me up. With laughter. I am sure Eric probably had a similar reaction. Beautiful. hugs
You are doing very well cleaning up the property. Chipping is the way to go. I see people burn up a wonderful resource. Thank you for sharing this with us.
How cool yall will have all this great video to look back on when yall are snug in your home to come. 🙂 Seems your fur babies were assisting with taking care of some of that brush.😄 Oh yes, those wood chips are a blessing...will feed and insulate. I enjoy watching yall's journey.🙂 Continue to be well...yall are in my prayers. You guys are so cute!🙂
I’ve been following the weather up there and saw you guys are having a deep freeze, with temperatures dipping into the single digits overnight. So I began to worry about what was left in your garden, and whether you were able to harvest it. Thanks for putting my mind to rest. 🤪 You guys give me something to look forward to. You’re so authentic. Love Ariel’s damsel in distress scene.
Another great video! Cinematography and music were perfection. I love how Bo was checking your clearance at 1:07 “you got it Dad, keep going”. That wood chipper made fast work of all that brush...I don’t think I’ll ever see a wood chipper without thinking of the movie Fargo. 🥴
Second time watching this video. Wow the work you have undergone! And so, Ariel’s fall did get the attention and help from Eric, who seemed to be exhausted himself. No wonder!
Me and my partner love these videos, making us country bumpkins wanting to move out into the wilderness 🌲🌳⚘🌷. Can see how much hard work you put into everything you do and it looks awesome 👌
I ran a 13 inch MDR Diesel in Hawaii for 3 years... Those chips under the garden beds would do a couple things,, hold water. add air, fluff the soil & give off heat...Love all the hard work, you guys do.. It was 19 here this morning..,, Looks like you have plenty of logs left for a log cabin!!! Aloha
Hello from Vancouver Canada 🇨🇦 Thank you for taking your time and sharing All of these beautiful videos and information With us.the garden final harvest was very colourful and gorgeous 👏🌸🌺
I could tell Ariel was tired, glad she did not hurt herself. Our heat index is 96 today, we could use a cold front. Those beets look so good. Stay warm & safe.
We can't wait for your next videos. Very inspiring and envious of your surroundings. Our garden and cellar is full of wonderful produce and I finally grew purple carrots!!
Wow Great Rooster I just love him !!!! Great video once again, snow WOW (live in sub-tropical) & all I can say -Love is when your Husband picks you up ( even though you can do it hahaha). Cheers - Denise-Australia
Eric! Dude! You missed your chance. At the end when she was waiting for you to help her up and you did, that was the perfect time to give her a sweet hug. Would have scored big points for ya. Great job getting the chipper those big ones are great. Later on if you decide to get a chipper get the kind that attaches to your future tractor. Less engines to have to winterize. Smart.
You two are amazing with getting “projects” done. Really enjoyed seeing the dogs having fun. I hope Ariel doesn’t have any lasting effects from that fall!
You can pull that hitch out of the reciever and remove the ball to install on the other side . Then you can re- install it to ge the clearance on that trailer front up . Have fun and stay safe you two 😉👍👍🇺🇸
Watched it again and focused more on what you actually achieved. Massive massive improvement congrats. I hope the stumps pop out easily, I’m hoping the weather cooperates. It would be great if you could start fresh in the spring and not trying to finish that portion. Thank you
The good thing about those chippers is, you don't need to do one branch at a time and wait for it to feed, just keep pushing it through with the next piece, get through the job much quicker rather than waiting for it to do each individual piece. The driveway is starting to come together though.
You two continue to amaze me! I love watching you create this amazing life together! I did my first canning because of watching your videos and I am now waiting to try my cowboy candy!! As an Australian your snow just amazes me! I've binged watched every video almost and can't wait to see what happens next! Love
Make sure to bring a solid blade weedwacker up there to clear the weeds and growth. It sounds nuts but it boosts morale and helps to clearly see the layout. Also woodchips are great additives to gardens in small amounts!
I got so nervous watching how close you had the exit chute to the back of the truck. One errant chip could have broken a few of those windows or taillights. I would have turned it a few holes more just to be safe but hey it worked. Love seeing how industrious you two are and not afraid of a challenge or new things so admirable. Just getting around to watching some of the older stuff. Also I believe the Vermeer chippers go by diameter branch it accepts for the model # so that one should take up to 7" diameter branch.
If you're ever looking for an interesting snack I tried a pickled beet stem last year that was really good!! Some garden neighbors were kind enough to let me raid their trash pile as they harvested. And I haven't tried it, but I heard the leaves are good sliced up in stir fries.
I can't say I smell it as I grew up in the woods and still live in the woods... just south of you young adults. I say adults out of respect for the arduous work ethic and stubborn determination to make nice. It might just provide a nice nest egg of cash for all of you at a time that your needing it. I truly evey your enery... mine got up and left so at 73, its just me and Rex the wonder dog as you wonder what he's up to next, a real fine friend
Great video. Those leaning trees you are bringing down ... in Northern Idaho the loggers used to call them "widow makers" because they go to the ground in very odd movements real quick,. So be careful you guys!
It’s important to stand on the side of the chute and not in front of it. That’s why the sides of the hopper are sloped - so you can push the branches while standing on the side. Use a push stick if you have to but never your limbs and remove any draw cords that might be on your clothing. Turn it off when you are not feeding it.
You two never cease to amaze me! You really bring new meaning to "ain't nothin' to it but to do it (thank you Maya Angelou). Making great progress on the "new" property. Could you share what your plans are for that space (did I miss it)? Another cabin? More fruit trees? Not nosey, simply curious :) Your leeks are beautiful! Well...your entire garden's bounty was beautiful, so there's that :) The freezer looks full, so organized, and ready for winter! Arielle's little tumble at the end...waiting for Eric to turn around - adorable
Oh you had some happy chickens. That wood chipper was massive. Home Depot had marked down their wood chippers. I came back the next week and they were all gone.😣
😂Eric do you ever get excited? LOL Ariel was on her butt and Eric politely walks over to help her up and didn’t even get excited about if his help was hurt or not. I just about died laughing at that. Anyway great video and you both are really hard workers. I just get excited about what you guys come up with on this property. Sending love all the way from VA.❤️
you are crazy! beet greens and the best greens I have ever tasted in my life. I look for them in the store all the time super hard to find. so tender and fresh please don't waist them it hurts my hart.
Looks good! We rented the same chipper last year to clean up some downed spruce in our woods and will be using it again in the spring for an area we cleared for a new garden.
If you guys try to do another root cellar, I'd like to suggest you make it round. I think that would take care of the falling wall problem. Especially if you drive in a lot of long rebar...
America needs more people like you two, really badly.
well, there will be no more trees in america... :D
You reap what you sow, and I think you two are examples of attracting the right partner into your life. Y'all have a wonderful dynamic and clear respect for each other.
I especially like the fall at the end. Ariel was just waiting for Eric to turn around and see her on the ground. It was sweet when he came and picked her up.❤️ Especially since she is badass and obviously could have done it herself. 😁
Yeah I noticed that too. That was really sweet. And yes, Ariel is badass.
And she went right back to pulling shrubs
Good thing she didn't fall in front the shredder.. that would of been bad. I worked as a vol fire rescue and worked a few accidents that parts are all of folks that went through one
Oh my stars she could of gotten up all by herself. I've fallen and can't get up. LOL
MAN DOWN MAN DOWN!!! :-)
So cute how Ariel stayed down after she fell until she got noticed, lol!
Wood chipping is so much better than burning, great asset for vegetable garden, floor covering for the chicken etc... and that wonderful smell 😊
This video gives me nightmare flashbacks to when I was a kid. We heated with wood and my dad always had land that he wanted to build a cabin on and the work was massive. I lost every fingernail on both hands except for one pointer finger getting my fingers stuck between logs. (not all at the same time)
Doing it as an adult didn't bother me much but as a kid it was awful.
Still, I thank you for the video. It's much more fun to watch you work than it was to do it.
Awwww, all I could see during this video was two beautiful souls in love with each other.....❤
@Alina McPherson totally agree
Just love me some Bo. You two are great & all, but I watch mostly for Bo! He reminds me of Eeyore. 🤗
Wendy D He also reminds us of Eeyore ❤
You too are super workers! You have a great work ethic, you are a great gardeners, your parents should be so so proud of you. I’m proud of you.
I agree with Darlene you are super workers, work ethic is great, etc.. I am super proud of the two of you. Love the 2 furbabies and furkitty.💖
How many people could smell the wood being chipped while this was playing. I could in my head. Love that smell

Hello sweetheart !
Chipping is addictive. I find myself looking for additional debris just to watch it fly!
What's the idea behind chipping into the woods? Does it just allow them to decompose faster?
@@joelahn6269 By giving the wood much more surface area, it does break down faster. Putting the wood chips on pathways will help keep mud and weeds down. It also will help define your paths.
O cool! Thanks
Better to be addicted to chipping than cigarettes lol Godspeed my friend

Эрик и Ариэль! Вы молодцы! Сколько у вас сил и желания работать! Вдвоём сделали такую сложную работу! Спасибо за видео! Очень интересно!
Watching this video made me think of just how hard our pioneers and settlers had to work. And, they did not have a chipper. Boy, we sure have become soft as a nation. Of course, you two are an exception.
There is an old joke about a couple of first time hunters who actually were able to bag a nicely antlered buck and grabbed it by the hind-hooves to drag it to their truck.
The antlers would catch in the brush and they would have to tug and yank and sit down often to restore their energy. An experienced hunter happened by and after watching their struggles suggested that it would be a lot easier if they were to drag the buck by its antlers. So they tried it.
About a half hour later, one remarked, "That guy was right! This is sure a lot easier."
The second responded, "Yeah, but we are sure getting a long way from the pickup!"
I think the chipper works better when you feed the bottom end of a branch in first.... I could be wrong. 8^)
I was thinking the same thing about feeding the base of the tree in first.
@@angelakrautman8546 They arent that dumb lol they obviously tried it ... you guys is mad funny lol
That would be a yes...
I own 2 and yes bottom first!
Love that you added some humor to your suggestion :) Although we often come across people that have good suggestions regarding the way we do things, it is always easier to listen to when presented in a thoughtful way :)
I could sit and watch your chickens scratch around for hours. Love the competition between the 2 roosters that was cute!
Don't know about anybody else but I find myself waiting on that notification that a new video has posted great job guys
You darshgon skippy!
I love this channel so much, from the very beginning. When I was a kid I always fancied Grizzly Adams’ lifestyle, should have gone for it. Keep it up guys, you bring a lot of peace and joy. Best wishes always.

at the end she just waiting on the floor for him to notice awww hahah thats so cute you got a good one my man
The fruit of all your work belongs to you. What a simple and wonderful place to be in life. I am glad you went with the chipper option!
You are doing very well cleaning up the property. Chipping is the way to go. I see people burn up a wonderful resource. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Ariel looked really pretty and badass, at the same time, in this video. Eric is the dude like always. Nice blooper at the end.
Love your videos.
Nice time lapse of the growing mulch pile!
It’s looking nice and the fresh snow is just beautiful
Really enjoy your videos! Such hard work and you two are awesome! Beautiful country! Thanks for sharing!

Hard work is a job well done. Wood chips are great in the chicken coop. They give off heat as they decompose, nice for winter bedding.
Staying down is the best part about falling😃
Dogs just love sticks. Never had one that didn't, must be comforting to just sit and chew on them...

Glad you got that new property for the firewood! Wood chippers make great mulch!
You two are amazing with getting “projects” done. Really enjoyed seeing the dogs having fun. I hope Ariel doesn’t have any lasting effects from that fall!
Those roosters are hilarious! Trying to outdo each other with a crowing contest. 😂🐔🐔🐔
Love the outtake at the end -- that's something I would do!
Молодцы ребята!
Смотрю и думаю: чем вы на жизнь зарабатываете? Вы прекрасно экипированы, у вас куча полезной техники, а это всё стоит немалых денег!
Enjoyed spending some time with you! Hard working , loving couple.
i appreciate the dedication , time , and love youre putting into this project.. tons of work for sure..
Love watching the two of you working together on everything you do.
Always feed from the larger trunk of the tree first, as it grew....bottom up, then the branches feed in smoother.
You can pull that hitch out of the reciever and remove the ball to install on the other side . Then you can re- install it to ge the clearance on that trailer front up . Have fun and stay safe you two 😉👍👍🇺🇸

You two continue to amaze me! I love watching you create this amazing life together! I did my first canning because of watching your videos and I am now waiting to try my cowboy candy!! As an Australian your snow just amazes me! I've binged watched every video almost and can't wait to see what happens next! Love
Robyn Caddell that's awesome! 😃
Make sure to bring a solid blade weedwacker up there to clear the weeds and growth. It sounds nuts but it boosts morale and helps to clearly see the layout. Also woodchips are great additives to gardens in small amounts!
The ending cracked me up! Immediately looked over to Eric to see if he saw it happen lmao
Auw so gentleman of Eric to come to Arielle. Keep it up.. 😸😸👍👌
I got so nervous watching how close you had the exit chute to the back of the truck. One errant chip could have broken a few of those windows or taillights. I would have turned it a few holes more just to be safe but hey it worked. Love seeing how industrious you two are and not afraid of a challenge or new things so admirable. Just getting around to watching some of the older stuff. Also I believe the Vermeer chippers go by diameter branch it accepts for the model # so that one should take up to 7" diameter branch.
he's like "quit slacking and get back to work Clutz" ;)
If you're ever looking for an interesting snack I tried a pickled beet stem last year that was really good!! Some garden neighbors were kind enough to let me raid their trash pile as they harvested. And I haven't tried it, but I heard the leaves are good sliced up in stir fries.
I can't say I smell it as I grew up in the woods and still live in the woods... just south of you young adults. I say adults out of respect for the arduous work ethic and stubborn determination to make nice. It might just provide a nice nest egg of cash for all of you at a time that your needing it. I truly evey your enery... mine got up and left so at 73, its just me and Rex the wonder dog as you wonder what he's up to next, a real fine friend
Good vid. You guys are the hardest workers. Love your channel. God Bless
Great video. Those leaning trees you are bringing down ... in Northern Idaho the loggers used to call them "widow makers" because they go to the ground in very odd movements real quick,. So be careful you guys!
Bandit in his orange jacket, there is nothing cuter!
Such a hard working couple. So inspiring.. God Bless!!
My grandma did freezer jam every year Strawberries grow great in Alaska
Another great video. I hope y’all are able to get some stumping done. The second property is looking very nice.
Your shrimp dish looked great-made my mouth water!!
It’s important to stand on the side of the chute and not in front of it. That’s why the sides of the hopper are sloped - so you can push the branches while standing on the side. Use a push stick if you have to but never your limbs and remove any draw cords that might be on your clothing. Turn it off when you are not feeding it.
You two never cease to amaze me! You really bring new meaning to "ain't nothin' to it but to do it (thank you Maya Angelou). Making great progress on the "new" property. Could you share what your plans are for that space (did I miss it)? Another cabin? More fruit trees? Not nosey, simply curious :) Your leeks are beautiful! Well...your entire garden's bounty was beautiful, so there's that :) The freezer looks full, so organized, and ready for winter!
Arielle's little tumble at the end...waiting for Eric to turn around - adorable
Oh you had some happy chickens. That wood chipper was massive. Home Depot had marked down their wood chippers. I came back the next week and they were all gone.😣
I like what you did here! I think that´s much better then burning all the brushes :)
😂Eric do you ever get excited? LOL Ariel was on her butt and Eric politely walks over to help her up and didn’t even get excited about if his help was hurt or not. I just about died laughing at that. Anyway great video and you both are really hard workers. I just get excited about what you guys come up with on this property. Sending love all the way from VA.❤️
I have been clearing downed wood since the CZUComplex fire last Aug, and envy your chipper!
you are crazy! beet greens and the best greens I have ever tasted in my life. I look for them in the store all the time super hard to find. so tender and fresh please don't waist them it hurts my hart.
good job guys! warm greetings from cold Siberia! keep up the good work
Looks good! We rented the same chipper last year to clean up some downed spruce in our woods and will be using it again in the spring for an area we cleared for a new garden.
If you guys try to do another root cellar, I'd like to suggest you make it round. I think that would take care of the falling wall problem. Especially if you drive in a lot of long rebar...
I would use the chipped wood for the chicken yard/coop.
It looks great! Awesome job.
You two work very well together. Awesome video. Thanks
