At Rock Hill Farm and Homes we upload new videos at least 3 times per week, about our 20 Acre hobby farm, our John Deere 2038R compact tractor and other equipment, and the businesses that we run.
These businesses include a manufacturing operation, a Christmas tree farm, real estate investing, a lawn care business, and an online retail store. I demonstrate how I am able to use these ventures to earn a good living without a traditional job.
We have some cool toys and always think outside the box on our little homestead so come along for the ride.
You can expect new videos from us every other day, usually around 8 AM.

Best video ever Brock!! Probably the only other video that was this realistic was from Dirt Perfect but he already had his business built up and "talked" about his meager beginnings. We get to see your story as it unfolds. I have always liked your channel because you think about things and do things like the average guy does starting out. The honest "hut" story summing up the decision matrix and then the inevitable add ons and how it adds up a long with maybe a couple of mistakes / not completely understanding is how it realistically normally goes. Thank you for sharing. As far as the large investment in the skid steer and the vulnerability of your revenue sources goes I will say thanks again for keeping it real. My father has always only looked at the successful people he knows and says "he" is making money hand over fist. He never considers (as many people don't) the liabilities associated with those revenues currently or how that person struggled financially and worked ridiculous often times labor intensive hours for a few years in the beginning. When I bring that up to him he literally glosses right over it. He also often times reminisces about business ideas he had but didn't do and how someone else eventually made a successful business out of the same idea. I always retort that they took a scary chance on an idea and he chose to go forward with a no risk job at GM. Neither path is right or wrong but the person at 65 that has a very successful business that allows them to afford an elevated life style started with a very scary dream, long hours, uncertain future and I'm guessing a lot of anxiety along the way. Keep it up; there is no doubt in my mind that you will make it. Now I have rambled on for way to long. Have a good Easter.
To be clear, I'm not saying that working at GM for almost 40 years is super easy or that my father hasn't done well for himself I was simply trying to point out that the person who grows a very successful business and after 40 years has many big "toys" and many very nice properties (or whatever) started out in a very scary uncertain place and probably struggled a great deal to get to where they are 40 years later.
You said it perfectly. Leaving my job to build pitching mounds in my basement was an incredibly risky decision.
I was probably only making a couple hundred dollars a week from the pitching mounds at that time but I could not do both any longer
Hiring people the first time was a scary decision
Realizing we couldn’t continue working out of my basement and buying a 20 acre property that already had a bigger shop was a scary decision.
Now I’m going to try to make Money with a machine that I don’t even have experience on.
I enjoy the ride but it’s high risk high reward going out on your own
Thanks for following the channel
Thinking again about your dirt perfect comment. I’ve watched all of those same videos.
Imagine how interesting it would’ve been if TH-cam existed when he was starting. Watching him with his first piece of equipment and his second piece of equipment.
Hearing his thoughts in the moment as he decided to shut down the ICF business
I’m sure there were some painful moments during that journey
Brock, you are absolutely right. He said he started out on his grandfathers old jd lawn mower/ garden tractor (I think he still has) mowing lawns as a teenager which was the foundation of what later became his current business. I'm sure there were many struggles.
Thank you so much. You may have made this video thinking it's too much info or no one has asked for it, but I'm pretty sure a ton of people like myself will benefit from your tell all experiences and challenges. Your honestly is greatly appreciated. Many of us is beyond grateful for your transparency. Great work!
Thanks. I also have a single video showing the entire build start to finish
I built one of these standing arch buildings a few years ago. It was a learning experience but everything turned out fine. That build was in 2003, we built it without any outside professional help. That was nineteen years ago and the building is still in great shape.
I appreciate your honesty and transparency in your Quonset hut.
New to chan thanks 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👊
Brock seriously…. One of the best videos you’ve ever done! You connect with your viewers on a level rarely seen on all of TH-cam. Developing that connection with wide open thoughts, fears hard work and successes is refreshing in a world today that most folks want everything for free. Really enjoyed you dad and hope to see some more of him in the future too! I could tell that you are a chip off the old block! Happy Easter!
Thanks for the kind words
I am excited to have the skid steer but the truth is that buying a machine like that is nerve racking.
I'm having end walls framed with wood. Built the Hut with three people total and a scissor lift.
You should be proud of yourself. Forgive yourself where needed. Move forward with a smile. Good work. Good soul.
Currently building a 28x40, we dug and poured our own footing and base runner, 8 inches off ground, our building has high lower walls it's 14 ft high, out 4 feet. We have put up 90 % of it, we have done it with just two men, we had two extra men for two days. We own a skid steer, trackhoe, and a friend loaned us a lift, we are about 9000 into mine so far, we have to close ends and doors as well, it's quite a job, we did our own pad, concrete, was expensive, I got the building used, it was bought and never put up, I got mine for 4000
Life is hard at times Brock and knock you down you got to just keep getting up dusting your self off and keep pushing forward have a great day great video and awesome channel
You said it. Thanks for watching
Good honest video. Most folks are sunshine and roses and fart glitter. To many guys have deep pockets and they never tell you how they are making money. I have to many friends who want my work for free or at a discounted rate.
Thanks for the honest price breakdown comparing to pole barns.
I was in business for 13 years its scary getting started but the reward it worth it . I gotta understand that you will 16 to 18 a day every day for your life time there's no time outs
God bless. I got out of business because of no labor force that want to work. Also have trouble with my hands anymore
Sounds right
Thanks for sharing
First video from your channel I'm watching, my impression is you are a very humble and hard working person. Subscribed.
Great that you share everyday issues and setbacks
Thanks
Really honest and informative video. I really appreciate it. We need more people like you. God bless.
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW ENDEAVOR!!!
Yeah I wish you all the luck in the world and if you believe you're already halfway there
I really enjoyed this brother! Stay positive with that skid steer! I. Thinking the JCB. lol. But going with the boncat
JCB was very tempting but no dealers near by
Somebody correctly guessed Deere 325G
@@RockhillfarmYT we have the 325 at work. Bought her used with 300ish hours. It's a great machine!
Thanks for sharing.
I loved your comment 'Just do your research' and I would add 'then build another way'. I have a next door neighbor who experienced basically the same thing, problem after problem after problem. Yes they are all solveable, but after all is said and done, all the extra hourly wages, equipment rentals, time lost figuring out stuff, headscratching and swearing, use SIPS or get a crew to put up a pole building. The time you'll save is well worth the extra $$ spent that you'll be able to earn back during the months that you'd spend with a quonset hut setup.
In 2004 I put up a SIP shop, 30x40 with a 20ft concrete apron in the front with a roof. The SIPs cost me $14k, the crew did the walls, roof on the shop and apron in 2 days. I bought some windows and doors, put them, bought some Grandrib roofing and siding and put that on. I had 2 friends that helped me, didn't pay them since we traded time for out different projects. So basically I had a ready to move in shop within a month. Yes there was site work, and concrete work, but the shop itself, windows, doors, metal roof and siding cost me about $23k.
Congratulations on the skid steer
Thanks
Bobcat T76. Keep your channel honest, i love that about your channel.
Thanks
go wit a t66 much better unit!
Thank you!
Good value video 👍🏼
Great "State of the Union" address! The numbers on the Hut were cool to hear. Love the transparency Brock!! - J.Andre.
Thanks
Love your honesty and transparency. This is why I watch your channel and not 99% of others who are “pretentious” and shitting rainbows every video.
The truth is that buying an expensive machine is risky and stressful
Thanks for watching
@@RockhillfarmYT worst case: if it doesn’t work out, you can always sell it and in this current market, get close to what you paid for it!
That is true. Used machines are going for to dollar
I have a pile of parts and an building the forms for the foundation. Your video is very helpful.
Good reflection on the build and the skid steer
Thanks
Good information. Thanks for making this.
I appreciate your time and candid info on building this quonset. We are looking to build a home and garage/workshop with one but are still up in the air.
Thanks for your in site to the quonset.
Very Refreshing to find your TH-cam channel and listen to you speak honestly about your life and project! - Thank you - Subscribing
In my area, a skid steer with a forestry mulcher head can write it's own checks.
I am glad to see that you have got the building done. I am looking forward to seeing the new skid steer loader.
Thanks
@@RockhillfarmYT your welcome
Job well done!!!!!!
Thanks
Looks good buddy! Super stoked for you, your gonna love having a nice place to keep your equipment!
Yes sir
Thanks for watching
Congratulations on finishing your quonset hut, looking forward to seeing your end walls.
Thanks
Congratulations on the skid-steer. Looking forward to the videos.
Thanks
I was still watching at your self questioning if anyone was still watching at 19 mins and 15 seconds. Happy the structure is done and for You getting a skid steer. (Did watch all the video )
Well, thanks for watching the hole thing
Glad to be done with the arches
I appreciate the recap of the QH adventure and I think the skid steer will be a great addition to the services you can offer
Thanks
I enjoy watching your videos. They are very interesting to me. Love watching projects come together.
Thanks
I appreciate you following along
Good Job Brock
Thanks
Thank you for sharing your experience and honesty. I'm trying to decide on a storage building the same size of yours. I'd also be doing the work myself and I'm not rich. The best advice on TH-cam, thanks.
so informative!! thank you
Thanks for watching
Congrats, great choice for the skid steer
Thanks
Very much enjoyed this video!
Thank you sir. And you know all about buying expensive machines although you probably got a better deal on yours
@@RockhillfarmYT we got ours used. I was wondering on the skid steer if you were going with new or used. Sounds like new if it’s coming with 6 attachments
Awesome channel Brock. Straight up reality from someone who has done the work. Appreciate everything you do.
Thanks a lot
Congrats on the skid steer. I know the fears your talking about but just from what I've seen of you, you're gonna make it work. I got my first driveway grading job tomorrow myself. Thanks for the vid.
Congrats on that first job. Thanks for watching
Thanks for sharing your planning and struggles with the hut. Great exercise in innovation! Watching the build video, you're on to something with the cradle idea. Assemble and attach the curve to a cradle made from thin plywood and diagonal lumber, to keep shape and prevent twisting. Use the holes to attach the cradle to a temporary hook on the outside, a pulley rigging, on a boom attached to the front loader, to rotate, suspend, and fit a section for attaching. Of course, this only works if you build another hut... ;-)
Congrats on the new machine.....you'll enjoy it and produce great content for your channel with it. It will take awhile to see any ROI, but it's a long game with a piece of equipment like that. Good luck Brock!
Thanks
Thanks for sharing, Brock. This is good stuff. I'm sure I'm not the only one who is considering the same building, and it's invaluable to get your perspective on it.
I think the price was reasonable and it should last forever but it was a big learning experience
Thanks for watching
thanks, really good information. I am thinking about using one of these to convert into a house. This definitely gave me something to think about.
Nice!
Thanks for watching
I always appreciate your insight and frankness! Best of luck on the new purchase. My 2038R is ready to be delivered, but I have to wait a few weeks before we'll be on our property to take delivery -- can't wait to get it, and start putting it to work.
Congrats on the new machine
My man, your videos are all awesome. Always insightful about whatever it is you’re speaking on, honest, and there is always something to take away from watching that may not even be related to your main topic.
I wish you huge success in all of your ventures
Thanks for the kind words
Dude listening to your thoughts goods bads exact decision making is like listening to my own life to the T and I thought it was just me living this roller coaster of life. Thanks I wish you the best of luck to all your projects. Nathan Young out of Granbury Texas
where did you purchase your building from? GREAT VIDEOS
Another great video and congratulations on your purchase. Sounds like a one-ton dump is next.
Thanks
Awesome job Brock. Watched that quonset build from the beginning. Thinking you’d like the bobcat T 76. Happy Easter to you and your family
Thanks
Congrats on the new building. Takeuchi Tl230 with auger, breaker, forks, grapple bucket, blade?
Kubota Skid Steer!
Kubota makes great machines. I love the roll up door. That is the biggest feature I wish I had
Somebody correctly guessed Deere 325G
Thanks for sharing your personal stories. I totally understand what you mean about inexperience. I bought a "want" when I bought my tractor. While I do have some experience with tractors and a select few attachments, I don't have experience with many other attachments. I'm now thinking about doing a some side jobs to help pay for my "want", but I'm a little scared because of my lack of experience. You got guts, and you are inspiring! Keep the videos coming and good luck with the skid steer!!
Sounds familiar. Thanks for sharing your story
It’s funny you posted this finishing video on the hut. I have never seen one near me in southeastern PA. We traveled to north central PA today to visit family, and sure enough one of the farms had it with a large door on the one end. I immediately thought of your struggle and eventual success with building it. Congrats on a good series on your channel.
They are common around here. I see them from the road all the time but I’ve never been in one or up close until I ordered mine.
Thanks for following along
I've enjoyed your videos on the hut build. I have one I picked up a few years ago which I still need to erect. You have been a great help . Best for you on your next endeavor.
Thanks for following along and good luck with your building
Congratulations and best of luck with the new machine and branching out your business model! I have zero doubt that you will make it work and be successful. As others have pointed out, the current state of the market and supply chain issues will let you flip that machine for what you paid for it if it doesn't work out as you'd like - but that doesn't make starting down this path and writing that big check any easier to deal with!
Good luck and God bless, my friend. I hope you and your family had a blessed Easter together today.
Dwight
Thanks for the encouragement.
5 kids and 5 grandkids here playing games all day today. Total chaos
I'm ready to build my Quanset. I have the land the money. Now I need to find a builder. Who do I order from. Etc. It's hard who to trust. The suppliers all say they are the best. I'm doing this by myself so I love your videos. Help.
Another great video Brock! Lots of good info and honest insight on the quonset hut build. The picture of you standing on top of it says it all!
I wouldn't worry about the skidsteer purchase. You could probably work it for a year and then sell it for what you paid for it. And every time you run it, you will gain experience and become more efficient. If ever I saw a person to succeed, it would be you.
Don't eat too many Easter eggs today!
Yes sir. Great comment and thanks for following the channel
Every single step is a price tag and a headache to do! Nothing is what it was just a few years ago. Hopefully eventually things will go back to normal. In the meantime, it's a good idea to go thru a dry run on a project before you spend the cash to see how you stand in the end.
AWESOME !! I and a friend erected my Quansant hut which is 28ft tall.. I'm not sure about Endwalls for mine ! I think go with concrete block half way up, and frame in the rest with wood ??? But all n All, I LOVE MY QUANSANT !!!
Thanks for sharing
Your real people
Thanks. I try to show the good and the bad
time spent in "recon" is not wasted
I just bought a 26x36 hut and I am going to try swapping some pannels around to make wider... I am going to put mine on containers
If I hadnt had poles, trusses and roof of pole barn already on farm I bought, I wouldnt have finished off & built Q-hut. I grew up admiring these very simplistic WWII era very efficient structures for storage & living in
Thanks for watching
Good call on the building, pole barns do not last. I have had termites, boring bees, powder post beetles, and post rot on mine. Will never build another one.
hi Brock, congratulations on finishing your silver headache. can't wait to see the end walls go up, I have no idea what kind of skid steer you bought but I did see you test driving a case so I'm going to guess a tr320 track driven skid steer
The case machines were nice but I ended up with a deer 325G.
Thank you for following along with the channel
Your presence before the camera has come a long ways in the time I've been watching you. Your confidence is much higher, and the stress in your voice has come down several notches. With your growing following, I imagine people will be beating down your door to offer you equipment to show and use. I'm looking forward to seeing what you'll be doing with the new Deere.
Thanks a lot for the kind words
People I know can’t believe I’m on TH-cam because I’m actually an introvert. I really enjoy making these videos and I’ve already been offered a very interesting skid steer attachment to demo
Thanks for watching
Brock, I can relate to what you're saying. Never know the outcome until you take that big step. Wish you the best. Liked you when I met you at the tractor show. You are the real deal. Not the show-boat like some channels. You got my vote!
Thank you sir
Good info Brock. I'll guess a 320G. I'd love to have a skid steer here also.
Close. Somebody correctly guessed Deere 325G
Thanks for watching
I feel you, Brock. First congratulations on getting that Quonset Hut structure up and second, AWESEOME congratulations on the skid steer. I have bought a lot of stuff for my new property and I am feeling pressure from my wife for her pool and I want a track loader too. The bills from all the other stuff I financed make those 2 large purchases very scary. I know you will find a way to make this all work though! I see someone already guessed which model you are getting. I was 1 version off. I was going to guess 331G
Yes sir
It’s a lot to handle but I wouldn’t have it any other way
Thanks for watching
I've experienced every single item you outlined in this video.From the expensive quonset build to buying new equipment.I had building quotes,and in the end,the quonset was cheaper than other builds,but not by much.It sure gave me experience in what not to do next time.I think it's a good thing to look ahead and try not to depend on any one area for your income,especially self employed.The wise choice to me is to buy a machine with good dealer support and networking,and hopefully fairly close to home.Good luck!
Thanks for sharing your experience on it.
I definitely learned a lot through this process and I am diversified into a few different businesses including making money from TH-cam.
It really is nerve-racking buying a piece of machine like a skid steer and hoping to make it work.
I went with a John Deere 325G because I have a really strong relationship with the local John Deere dealership which is Heritage tractor
I appreciate your videos on building the building. I’m struggling to get my business re-started after COVID shut us down and I will need to build something similar to what you have.
Sorry to hear about your business. Good luck getting it going again
@@RockhillfarmYT May I ask who you purchased the building from and if you’d deal with them again?
I keep telling you that you are doing an awesome job with everything you do. Hard work will pay off for some that is willing to take a chance and get their hands dirty.
Thanks for the encouragement. I try to stay busy
@@RockhillfarmYT always sir
Great video Brock, I see someone already guessed it, So Congrats on the Deere 325G looking forward to all the upcoming videos, you're doing great on this TH-cam adventure 👍👍
Thank you sir
I'm going to order end walls with cut outs for my windows and doors. Mine quoted for that is about 23,000. Oh gawd. I hope I can do this. I'm getting the straight walls in the S type so much to learn.
Good video. I just took deliver of my 16x28 type S and have been looking at videos to see the methods everyone else used… im tackling my job solo as well, so im soaking up the knowledge you all gained from the experience. Im putting mine on 3’ walls also to gain a higher ceiling for a second story loft. Done all my concrete work myself and only have about $1600 in footings and walls.
How’d your project go? I am also going to be doing a solo project
Great video. Just subscribed! Live in Mo as well. Just bought a 331g two months ago and looking at around found your channel. Kinda in the same boat.
Awesome. Thanks for watching and good luck with the new machine
I just found your channel with this video Brock, and REALLY appreciate your honest, no B.S. approach. I'm shopping for a mid-life restart after a divorce, and steel building or pole barn seems like the best value. I want affordable, durable SPACE. Obviously the more affordable, the larger the space. Sight prep is the scariest expense (electricity, well, septic, site excavation/prep) so I'm trying to really research my options so there are fewer surprises. Thanks for your channel. I just subscribed.
Thanks for watching and good luck with the building
I'm 2 arches into my 20 by 80 A model. I'm doing it myself with my Mahindra 6075. It's hard but seems to be going OK. I have a nice 5" slab, the base plates, and a torque driver (rechargeable) set at to lowest setting (I can loosen the nut with my fingers). Today I hope to get up 2 to 4,...we'll see. Your vid's have been informative, thanks for all your time. Also,....the BOLTS!!!!! all the Damn BOLTS!!!!!

Yup, this is excellent - they all are! It is of much help to son Logan and I who are building our 40x60 Quonset. Unable to get labor to show, so we're on our own. This will soon be a nocturnal venture due to high temps...ours was delivered 6 months late. We look forward to ALL of your videos! I have sprung for the TH-cam premium or what ever it is called to get rid of the *$@^%##! ads. Right! No ad's on the computer but at least twice as many on the big screen which is where we see your daily adventures. You seem to be a very good man and are definitely a man we call a friend. Best of luck! Trig & Logan, Rio Nuevo, AZ Oh, identical post COVID symptoms from 1+ year ago.
Thanks for the kind words
Great video. The struggles and ups and downs like most americans...really enjoy your honesty and videos
Yes sir. We all have our struggles.
Thanks for watching
Love Skid steers for reputation of running back and forth with the buckets to completing a job, from filling in a foundation with crushed stone to filling in the outer walls of the foundation very quickly!!!
Yes sir
Thanks for watching
Great video Brock. The attachment part is why I couldn't go with a john deere tractor. I knew when I bought my tractor that I would eventually get other equipment and needed to have a skid steer quick attach system so I wouldn't be spending thousands on duplicate attachments. I'm really glad you did the series on the qonsenhut build, after watching your struggles I decided against buying one, I too had talked to a salesman about getting one and at the time I voiced some of my concerns and he too just made things sound so simple but after watching your build I realized those things are easier said then done. I appreciate all you do on your videos, it actually helps me make some decisions. It's funny how I'll be thinking of doing something or thinking of buying something and you do it or buy it and I can make better decision based on watching your video. Sorry for such a long post but I guess I wanted to explain my thank you.
I appreciate your comment. That is what I am trying to accomplish with the channel
You do realize that you could have converted your loader to quick attach for about $800 dollars and still had the JD type too if you ever needed it!
I originally defended the John Deere quick attach. It works great, it is convenient, and everybody makes stuff for it
I have changed my mind and I would like to convert mine. I will most likely by the adapter
This issue comes when you have more than one machine, or you want to lend/borrow attachments with a friend
Every manufacturer should use the same attachment system
Just my thoughts
The pessimist in you says you can't afford the new machinery - The optimist in you says you can't afford not to have the new machinery.. Labor is expensive (if you can even find it) so machinery that expedites it is priceless. The bottomless pit is dug by those who think their time is not worth anything.
Delivering mine today, which is 3.5 months from the time I ordered it. Sounds like COVID-19 isn't as much of an impact in mid 2022.
Glad to hear you could get it in a reasonable timeframe. Good luck putting it up
Great video. As a fellow small business owner. I’ve had all the same feelings and worries. I made mistakes. Plenty. Just learn from each one. My biggest mistake was going to small on my first tractor. You are a young man. You are going to do great.
Yeah, it seems like I always go too small. It’s funny because I was going to get a 1025R and decided to “go big” with 2038R. Probably actually needed a 3046 cab tractor.
Nevertheless, this machine has served me well.
Thanks for sharing your experiences and for following along with the channel
@@RockhillfarmYT I had the exact tractor you have in the 2 series. Older model tho. I do Brushhoging, Rototilling, land clearing including tree work and install Foodplot’s for deer. I started picking up 20 plus acre mowing job’s. The 2 series with 5 foot Brushhog was so inefficient. If grass was high it would bog bad. I traded it year after purchase. Bought a 4044m got the MX-6 Brushhog. Now I have jobs that are 70 plus acres. I stay busy. The terrain in my area very steep. But I can mow the 70 acres in 31 hours.
Mowing 70 acres is impressive. I did 49 acres once with the 2038 and it was quite a task.
I was leaning towards upgrading to a four series tractor before deciding to go with a skid steer
Good luck on continued success with your tractor worth business
I'm right there with you. I've be running equipment for 20 plus years. a mini x , skid steer and dump trailer you should have a pretty good gig going on. my wife and I are making a leap of faith and got to be relocating to southern Missouri. there I want to start my own company. Ben running iron for many years for someone else. now it's our turn. good for you. good luck. nice barn build. I think I'm going to try it with a cradle on my skid steer and see if I can almost set the arches instead of pulling it up. don't know tell you try. thank
Small world. I live just outside of Joplin Missouri
The arches are flimsy and don’t really hold their shape
Best of luck to you
Skid steer is best investment other than property you can rent it out or learn how to run it I have 2 maybe 4 or 5 in family I got my first at 14 they hold value but the market is saturated I could count 5 in area when started and now it’s about 1in 20 people have one bobcat s76
