Love your show chief…..you should do more Amish videos, bushcraft, animal husbandry, hunting/fishing, old school homestead/pioneer skills
Different firestarters and have a bonfire cookout…..biochar tin, laundry lint, pine cones, bark et cetera……do some beekeeping
When my mom was little she remembered hearing the older generation wondering why they would want a refrigerator when they had ice.
:)
We live in PA. As you mentioned ice ponds and icehouses used to be a big deal around these parts. The first time I was told you could keep ice for a whole year through the summer I couldn’t believe it. It’s amazing the skills and know how that’s been lost to technology these days!
So cool, I remember 'ice boxes', they do keep cold. Enjoyed watching the video, big changes are a coming. It's going to be interesting to watch
Been trying to do that myself from what I remembered my great-grand-father telling me. Thank you so much for this video! I found details I was missing!
Thanks for watching!
“Lazy English person” 😂. Thanks for the informative video!
Wow that’s amazing! So cool to see how things were done, not so very long ago!
Thanks for commenting!
Wow! You are blessed they are teaching you❤️. I think the world would be a better place if the very wise Amish taught everyone. their life skills ❤️
I agree 100% the knowledge and wisdom I've gained have been immeasurable. I hope to do more videos on the topics
Loved this video! It was amazing to see and to learn about the process. Great clips and footage!
Thx!
Great heartwarming video!
Such a cool glimpse into a different way of life!
Wow! I was just reading about Thomas Jeffersons ice house at Monticello. It made me think about how that kind of tech never changes and can't really be improved upon and then I happened to pull up this video. LOL.
Awesome, its very interesting. It makes sense but was such a huge industry back then. I wonder if we'll look back at manual transportation 100 years from now as another extinct technology due driverless vehicles...in the same way the ice industry ended due to new tech
it's much more logical to harvest the ice that forms naturally in winter than to spend energy (potential heat) to make ice.
such a convoluted process
Yeah it's great if only a few people do it, once a population gets big enough it's not viable to do it without depleting the water source for surrounding farmland.
I wonder about the possibility of building a food storage area within an ice house so you could put food there and not have to move the ice too a smaller box.
There was an ice house down the street next to the pond but it had been turned into a roller skating rink. I worked on an old eastern rig dragger I was cook and had to maintain the icebox and the grub
I’m 2min in and I subscribed! I’m not done yet but I love your video.
Thanks, it's almost that time of year again to harvest ice again
Lol 'I'm a lazy Englishman' ....im from England and the farmers and charcoal makers will object to that Hahaha!! Yes some estates over here still have ice houses (although many not in use) but a great historical item.
Haa, sorry if it wasn't clear. The Amish refer to nonAmish as English...so thats me!
So fascinating. Do they use the ice blocks for anything else besides keeping food cold? Like make cubes to cool drinks or anything?
That's a great question. I don't think they use it for drinks but I will ask William when I see him next week
Ice was almost always harvested from ponds. Great for keeping food fresh, not great for putting in your food.
Guess it just proves that with every action there is a positive and negative, don't pay for heating, light or transportation, then be ready for a great deal of hard labour. Cheers.
Great video, thanks for sharing 😀.
Thanks!
@@Homesteadhow you’re very welcome ☺️.
I read about this in farmer boy by Laura Ingalls Wilder, and had to see how it's done
Good job 👏
Thanks, next year I'm doing this again but also getting my own ice!
Kerry - Question:
Do your Amish neighbors have a hole drilled in the base of their chest freezer to drain the water, once the ice starts to melt? Or do they pump it out somehow with a battery powered sump pump?
I enjoy your videoes and have admired the Amish for years! Their farms and lifestyle remind me of my grandparents’ farm when I was a kid.
They too were homesteaders, in every sense of the word. My grandmother trader her eggs to a nearby country store for what little “groceries” she needed such as salt, flour, sugar, baking powder, and cooking oil. They raised all their own meat and vegetables.
Gosh, what I would give to get to go back in time and visit that farm again!
Great question! I will ask William. I am not sure on how he drains the water. Your grandparents farm sounds great. WIliams farm is amazing. We hope to do more videos showing his farm and growing seasons. Thx
@@Homesteadhow If its a chest freezer with a cut-off electric cord, it would have a drain.
Awesome!
That's pretty cool! :)
I am looking for information on how to build a modern ice shed, there are no lakes or pound close buy me, but we do have acces to lots of free square four gallon buckets, we could just fill them out of our well and leave them outside to freeze.
Brrrrrrrrrr 🥶
I wonder, with plastic now... if you filled bags of water, tied them off and loaded up the ice house with the door open in late fall, If they could freeze all the way through,
Be an insane amount less work, significantly cleaner ice as well
So he stores his food in a chest right dosent actually keep food in the ice house?
Beg to differ not BRUTAL. A hard honest days work!!!
What is that UFO at the end?
Good eye! th-cam.com/video/DnILp5TnEuo/w-d-xo.html
Drone meets tree!
@@bodie395 good catch! And it survived. I thought it was stuck but it backed up and was still flying there
Great video mate but, lazy English……really
Sorry. I should have explained i was referring to myself. The Amish call all in Amish, "english" I wasn't referring to people from England. Sorry
