I just watched your video from May 29th 2020 where the tractor got stuck. A quick way to get unstuck without digging it in deeper is to 'curl' the bucket all the way down as if your dumping dirt out of it and then place it on the ground and 'curl' it back up without raising it while reversing. The bucket will push you out almost every time. Cheers from Canada!😁🇨🇦
Call me crazy but I cannot watch your channel enough 😂 I've been following TH-cam channels for about 3 years and just recently found you guys ❤️ I follow a lot of the big ones ie; Living Traditions homestead...And I'm going to honestly say your channel is the very first one that I am following their Blog. I wish I knew how to follow that better because I want to read from the beginning of you Blog's but don't know how 😢 Joanna Corpus Christi TX
🧑🌾🇨🇦🧑🌾You wonderful homesteaders are where Betty and I want to be.....simply awesome. The Ole Church 5 Acre Homestead is still being restored and renovated!
Your cover crops look great! I garden in Northern California and we time the planting and take-down of cover crops so that they end in the Spring so we don't have to irrigate them in the warm weather. Consequently, mine were cut down in April. Keep up the good work. You have some good-looking little helpers!
I am watching your videos. I think I am in your same growing zone. I am 6a or 6b. I was particularly interested in growing garlic. I loved that video. I have so many questions I'd love to ask about books you've used and methods. And what time of year you put garlic down.
New subscriber here... where do you buy your cover crop seed from? I have an in ground garden also and want to start implementing some of your ways of gardening. Most other channels I watch have containers, so I am ready to binge on your channel!! Thanks for the help!
That’s a great idea to show progress of the garden over the months. It’s helpful for someone looking to grow more food. Did you test the soil to ensure it’s organic? Just wondering if that’s recommended, since we are looking for land to garden, as well as build our home on. Thanks!
Yes, we sent a soil sample off to our local college agriculture extension for testing. It told us the organic levels, and if we needed to add nitrogen or any other minerals to balance out it's acidity/pH.
Your garden looks great. I love seeing other homesteaders using mulch, cover crops and tarps. Where did you get your overalls? I just got a pair of overalls and now I’m kinda obsessed with how comfortable and functional they are.
Thanks! They are from dovetail workwear. I love them! I don’t usually like to spend a lot of money on clothes but they are so amazing it’s worth the cost.
Our winters are 6 months long typically, with the first two months being mildly cold, the middle two months generally COLD, and the last two months mildly cold and WET as it approaches spring. THanks for tuning in from Estonia!!
100x100 ft. We are adding more though a little bit at a time this summer. The full expansion will be 200x 100 ft once we are finished. I’m hoping that will be good for a while. Some of the space we are planning to grow food to supplement livestock feed, so not all the space is for us.😉
We just bought a caterpillar tunnel from farmers friend. I have yet to put it up but I think it will be worth it! It will allow for more season extension but at a lower investment cost than a greenhouse.
I do use Instagram, but also have a blog, TH-cam, Facebook page, and Pinterest. I balance all those along with homesteading so some get more attention than others sometimes😉

Getting closer to self-sustaining every day. This year was the first year we did all our own meats in addition to the veggies. One small grass-fed beef cow, two heritage pigs on pasture, 75 free range meat birds, and just finished our thanksgiving turkey. It's a nice feeling.

Such great videos!
I’ve used boards on my carrots but I love the burlap idea. Thanks for sharing.

🧑🌾🇨🇦🧑🌾You wonderful homesteaders are where Betty and I want to be.....simply awesome.
The Ole Church 5 Acre Homestead is still being restored and renovated!
Wow, I look forward to seeing your progress!
Amazing garden. I dream of having a garden that big one day.
Thank you!
I love learning how you do things on your videos and look forward to slowly building our own homestead!
I love how beautiful and straight your rows are!!
So awesome! You are doing great work!
Very nice work and very organise well done for hard work
Thank you for your kind words!!
Very impressive garden. Growing up my family had a half acre garden very similar to yours. it brings back lots of memories.
I was wondering if you could make a video in how to can properly and dehydrate the veggies and fruits.Thank you, amazing what you are doing
This is how life should be lived, I love watching your videos
It’s hard
@@hosoiarchives4858 if you mean it's a hard way of living, then my answer to that is, the rewards are probably bigger than anyone can imagine!
@@ABCDEF-mo3lz I live this way and it’s hard
Completely agree
you have a very nice wide area.
Your cover crops look great!

Love watching your garden grow! Thanks for sharing
Do you can make a video, how to prepare the soil?
I am watching your videos. I think I am in your same growing zone. I am 6a or 6b. I was particularly interested in growing garlic. I loved that video. I have so many questions I'd love to ask about books you've used and methods. And what time of year you put garlic down.

@@TheSeasonalHomestead Thank you! This is great to know we can have that done!
Do you plan to grow grains for eating?
You mention some books you use as resources here, wondering if you could share what your favourite resources are for home gardening? Thank you
I have some favorite gardening books linked on my “Shop my favorites” page in the description.👍🏻

Me too. That is what it is all about.
How long is your winter. I live in estonia so i dont now 😅
Our winters are 6 months long typically, with the first two months being mildly cold, the middle two months generally COLD, and the last two months mildly cold and WET as it approaches spring. THanks for tuning in from Estonia!!
What is the plastic behind the spinach and wire set-up. Do you pull this over for bug control ?
Great video! How large is your garden? Thanks!
100x100 ft. We are adding more though a little bit at a time this summer. The full expansion will be 200x 100 ft once we are finished. I’m hoping that will be good for a while. Some of the space we are planning to grow food to supplement livestock feed, so not all the space is for us.😉
@@TheSeasonalHomestead Wow! That’s huge! Keep up the good work!
how do you know what can go next to each other and what can't?
Looking great! What state are y’all in?
Arkansas
If you don't mind me asking, where did you buy your bare root strawberries?
Nourse farms. They have great plants. I have bought from them many times!
Will you be doing a greenhouse or just stick to outside planting for everything? I’m trying to gauge if it’s necessary
We just bought a caterpillar tunnel from farmers friend. I have yet to put it up but I think it will be worth it! It will allow for more season extension but at a lower investment cost than a greenhouse.
The trick is getting the kids to do all the work for you. But that could be like herding cats.
I found you on IG. Do you not use that platform anymore?
I do use Instagram, but also have a blog, TH-cam, Facebook page, and Pinterest. I balance all those along with homesteading so some get more attention than others sometimes😉

Are ya self sustainable? Do you grow and harvest your own meat?
Getting closer to self-sustaining every day. This year was the first year we did all our own meats in addition to the veggies. One small grass-fed beef cow, two heritage pigs on pasture, 75 free range meat birds, and just finished our thanksgiving turkey. It's a nice feeling.
Looking great!
Thank you!
the ratio of subscribers/views/comments is crazy on your channel.
