There’s a certain something that’s basic yet profound that happens between a man and woman that work together to provide their needs. Bless you two for being so much one. The blessing of memories will set a life long tone of well-being through working/playing together. God bless you for reminding this old man of how close my wife and I grew together working side by side. Tears of joy. Thank you. Thank you.
well, all i can say is that if there is a real food shortage, elks and deers are by far not the biggest problem we will have. Humans become terrible when confronted with hunger. And they are capable of doing anything to get food. I lived through unbelievable harsh and strong experiences in Venezuela and in two different countries in Africa, and I can tell you, it is no joke. So let us hope that all comes to the best, and that even if there is shortage, that it will not create panic, and specially that we can pass trough this period of life on Earth with our heads held high with love, compassion and intelligent decisions. Bless you lovely family. Take care.
@@darlenedouglas5148 ohh thank you, that was sweet. We are not "running" around anymore. We live in France, quite secure and we are happy. And then, thank you again for this wonderful wish You too, stay safe and be happy.
Just a tip: we have a lot of deer here. I used to have an 8 foot fence around my garden. They would jump it and eat everything. So if you find they are jumping your fence, the only way I have been able to completely keep them out is a single strand of electric fence. Deer do NOT like to jump horizontal. They jump vertical. So if you place 1 strand of electric 36 inches from your fence and 18 inches high. They will not get in. When they try to snuggle up to the high fence to jump it, they hit the electric before they get there. I hopd you don't need this but its cheap and effective if you do. Enjoy developing your homestead.
Ditto - I have watched deer with a 6 foot fenced and that is NO PROBLEM for them the just hop right over and make it look easy. Great suggestion on the electric!
I have dealt with our little coastal deer for decades. I found i never had to hook up an electric fence and kept the deer out for 34 years! I put up elec wire and flagged it with construction flagging and it has worked for decades. They see the flagging and stay out! Crazy but it works.
Awesome land. My wife and I were talking about this garbage yesterday and we realized no matter if we have food and guns, we need a community to keep surveillance 24/7. Can’t expect my wife and boys to stand guard and pull shifts all the time. Like Negan said in TWD, people are a resource. Get to know your neighbors because bugging out is always the last resort.
May the Lord bless the labor of your hands. May he bless you with abundant harvest, and a safe haven to live (while getting ready to build your big house), that He is glorified.
I apologize if this has already been suggested. It is really simple to keep smaller critters out of that space, not really cheap but simple. Get some hardware cloth, attach it to your lower cross beams, bend it 90° at the dirt, pin it down. When I put this in I just raked some dirt away from the fence and after pinning just pulled the dirt back over it.
Love the thumbnail ... Most people open a small front door ... You open a HUGE rollup ... Love tge banter ... Work hard, play hard ... As you clean land you will acquire rocks ... You can put them at the bottom of your fences ... Help keep critters out ... Bees inside garden ... Fruit trees outside garden ... Makes catching more swarms easier ... Love the fence contour ...
Orchard, with a permaculture twist, adding numerous edible perrenial guilds to each poineer tree in a silvopasture, rotational paddock system between each contour. Perrenials are easier to work with and require less effort than annuals, so maybe research all the edible perennials in your area and lock those in with your fruit/nut/nitrogen fixing trees/shrubs, vines, herbs, roots. 😁
Greetings from México I am so jealous of your land ... the wilde life here are basically jaguars, snakes, pigs and Birds and they dont come to the town because of the heat (104°F - 122°F)
I have had to do many projects similar to this one and have found that setting up my smaller miter saw on my tailgate makes life incredibly easier by making the mark, then using the saw to worry about keeping it at 90 deg. I even made a little cradle to support the wood by the ends of the tailgate and hold the saw in place to keep it from sliding around on the tailgate.
Great professional video, the editing ,workmanship, music, content, and humour, fast moving making the viewers wanting more, just as good as the very best home shows on youtube.
I don't know how much land and possibly timber you may have. If you do have timber on your property you might consider getting a sawmill and tractor with a front bucket and forks. Just a thought if you have timber. Good luck with your new venture. Stay safe and God bless you all.
I know only too well from my own personal experience that there is such a huge sense of achievement when you complete one of these big projects on your own property. There really is no other feeling like it, especially when it's something that's been on your list of stuff to get done for a while. Congratulations. Stay safe and well, and the very best of luck to you and your family 👍😎👍
My new favorite channel. just pure everyday hard work and we really enjoy watching it come together and best part no silliness like lots of other channels. Thanks!
I love the fact that you two can connect even in public... keep it going with the love you two and don't let your fascination with each other become a lower priority. Man of God, keep her heart because I'll tell you it's hard to keep once you lose trust and (God forbid) hurt her heart! God bless ya'll!
Great job guys on the garden fence! Welcome to Idaho on the weather can change quickly, just like Washington, best homestead channel, looking forward to more! All the best for your family, 👍🇺🇸🌲🌲
Wise move to prepare to feed your family. A short but sweet growing season up there. You can do chickens to harvest size in 2 months. Keep an eye out for freezers for storage. Cornish Cross.

As I beg my grown children to listen help me with quails and chicken and growing veggies. No time I feel like NOAH but no one is listening. I'm so glad you guy's brought up this conversation. Blessings and more Blessings Love seeing you guy's work together
Charles my children have ignored my drive to homestead, they think my mind has gone and that I am not all there anymore. I am so concerned about doing this alone, but I know ABBA has it all worked out. I would love to be given some direction, patience is tough, especially with this travesty being confined and unable to work or being productive. I pray your children's ears and eyes are opened, so they can truly see HIS truth, farming is so necessary!! Blessings!!
Yes its very frustrating to say the least when your grown children are not listening,to think that us Parents instilled "Common Sense" .in to them .myself I am ready to roll .all I need now are my own chickens.I planted some veggies and have lots of stored food put away
Mary McCloy May I please share the biblical sabbath truth created in the garden of eden blessed and honored by Jesus Himself. Pray seeking truth. Genesis 2:2&3. Exodus 20:8-11. This is the end times fulfillment of prophecy. Sun day worship will become enforced. This country will be consecrated to Mary tomorrow!!! We have been deceived and taught sun day rest. The enemy is a liar. The day we rest is who we worship. Know better do better. I am reaching out to give important information. The fourth commandment says remember!
Awesome job guys!. Took your advice about soaking the rabbits in cold water. We marinated in a buttermilk brine and double breaded and fried. OMG! nothing left. so tender and yummy. We are building a new warren for our Mamas. Papa loves to live in the house and is free in the yard getting snuggles and loving from everyone all day. He is the most affectionate rabbit I have ever had. My grandaughter drags him all over the place and hes sad when shes not here. So glad Arms Family sent us your way! Blessings from Peru
Are you planning on putting up the greenhouse inside the garden? Depending on what type you're putting in, you could put one up that's secure enough to put right outside your garden? Maximizing your planting space that's fenced? I love your updates! Making miss my mountain life loads! Out on the plains for now but mountain life is the goal eventually!
Really enjoying your videos, nice to see people at the very beginning of their homestead looking forward to watching ye grow and prosper best of luck from Ireland and God bless!
Hubby and I watched your fence build so far, and are sooo impressed. It looks relatively easy (in concept) to put together, and is extremely attractive so far. It will be wonderful to see the process you use to put the fencing wire up. We hope you show that part! We have put lots of fencing up (we are farmers), but we really like your method , and hope to use your method when we do our new build.
Great ;looking fence. I would suggest that at some point you put a couple of feet of chicken wire from the bottom of your fence down into the ground, especially where you have large gaps. Two to three feet down and a bend at the bottom will generally deter the rabbits etc from entering. Great sized garden. I look forward to watching it progress. Stay safe!
I like your music selection. Wish I was about 35 years younger. I would have love to do some kind of homesteading. I do my best with small space gardening as I live in an apartment. Live the life and love it!!!!
Good simple living is the best!! I’ve watched and followed all of their rabbits and gardening advice. I finally got some rabbits and I’ve even started my own channel. I’m trying to make it like theirs. I’d love some support/feedback from anyone. Thanks so much!!
I have used electric wire strung around the lower part of my garden fences. On touch will stop all little creatures, on the top stops all deer. It works so well.
Y'all are such an inspiration to me, and of course to others. Both of you think so very much like I do about life in general, about homesteading, and about "making it happen." Love that spirit! We have endured well over 30 inches of rain here so far this year on my 20 acres in Jackson, Mississippi so if I waited on dry weather, not much would get done around here! At least you seem to have drier dirt to plant a garden in. I used raised beds primarily for my organic gardening which helps a lot but it still been incredibly muddy just walking around in the garden. I'm completely thrilled to see your family set up on your land and I cheer for each step of progress you make. As Johnny Cash used to say "Press On!"
Had to comeback to watch some of these fantastic videos, love your sence of humor guys, Jeremy is a trip, he cracks me up when he tells Melissa " Giggity Giggity , lol 🤣😆 hahaha... Just great guys 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😃 Oh and to make sure I press that like button. Making sure I got all of them. (Videos)
After you get the fencing up you can alway's use chicken wire on the low place's. Bury it down a foot and then bend it out away from the fencing, L shape. That way if something try's to dig under it they'll run into fencing. You 2 are smoking it !! Stay safe and healthy. God bless
Great job great video as always!!! You guys look so Relaxed and Giddy!!!!!! I know things have to get done, but you're Happy Happy!!!!! Your on Your Time Now!!!! And that's what makes a great so happy for you God bless!!!!!!
It would be nice to work out something to get the dirt turned up & amended for planting sooner. I have chainlink fencing completely enclosing the entire garden installed PVC pipe on the chainlink top installed sprinklers and I should have run PVC along the beds for soakers but used two hoses one for each side. Went back and made raised beds in a stepping up sections. On one side I shaded 3/4ths up the side. My unique situation is the heat in AZ(105 -115) at times that can really affect the garden. Early morning I would use the above sprinklers like it was raining and then used the hose to flood the beds. I harvested more than I would ever eat so traded for things that I needed including my first 4-5yrs killing 16 -20 rattlesnakes or shared with the fire dept for removing Gila Monsters and some of the snakes. I am so glad that I am following you so that I can relive my life that is now gone. Being disabled and using a walker I can't maneuver through the beds. It seems that there's no kids old enough to help & handyman wants an large amount of money. The one bad thing about living so far out & 68. Figuring other ways to have a few veggies,herbs & melons planted. You two are an inspiration and I commend you for sticking to your project in good or bad weather! Proves how strong your determination to build this piece of land into your home. Looking forward to watching your progress!!
Safety first please. You're out in the back country. Eye coverage please. 💜💜 Making my favorite fence. 💖 solar caps on the posts? Solar motion detectors?
Hi if you can learn to graft trees like apple, cherry ect. Then one tree and the energy to keep it is less and your variety is more. P.s. you can graft hops and create Amazing Beer 🤫
I enjoy following you! It is very wonderful having ones own place close to nature! You guys and me will be building up our homesteads on eather side of the atlantic 😉💛🌞🙏😇 Lot's of love from Sweden!
That fence is turning out so good! You guys rock. I would not worry to much about critters getting under it. Since you are doing raised beds just make them tall enough that rabbits won't be a problem. Anything smaller than a rabbit would be able to get through the fence anyway.
Can’t imagine what it would be like waking up and seeing that beautiful mountain range each day. Thanks for the inspiration to one day do something similar!
Recovering Soul They are going to build a greenhouse in the fenced area. Buy fruit trees for the zone you live in so the trees must be able to withstand Idaho winters.
Taking in the scenery with the beautiful music and you two, this is how a marriage lasts. It's a partnership. Love your channel. New member coming soon. 🌹🌺🙏
Keeping the looks and if you want to keep out the little critters attach chicken wire to the bottom rail and bury it in the ground, if you go out from the fence 300mm plus, it also keeps out the digging critters too. That's what we had to do around our chicken coop to keep wild dogs and foxes out
*It's not food shortages; it's the DISTRIBUTION of food that's becoming a problem.* The US creates, and has pretty much always created, PLENTY of food *(just look at how much food is WASTED in this country!);* what's happening now is that the lockdowns are starting to drastically affect the supply chains that get the food from the producers, to the stores. Empty shelves don't mean food isn't being produced; it means food can't get to the stores as it should, on schedule. That's why more and more states are moving towards re-opening; the longer this continues, the more problems there will be. Within another month or so, I believe the lockdowns will be drastically reduced; we're already seeing signs of this in Florida and Georgia... as well as states like the Dakotas. The restrictions need to be lifted where it makes sense to do so (in other words, where the illness has slowed or been reduced), so that people can start to go back to work - and the supply chains can be restarted again. NO ONE knows how long all of that's going to take... *but I believe we need to be moving in that direction. Which is one reason why Melissa and Jeremy picked the PERFECT time to get out of Washington state, and start their homestead; moving away from the areas of higher cases of COVID-19 (as WA State is right now) protects their family, as well as positions them to insulate against a lot of the stuff going on right now. And, by the time things start to stabilize, they will be more settled into their new lifestyle, still homeschooling, still raising their own food... and developing their property! I wish more people were in that position!*
I have been enjoying your videos (your adventure) so much. I LOVE how the two of you ask other's advice but do what makes you happy. I love that ! I hope I'm strong enough to do the same as I transition to my homestead. I've already had people try to talk me out of some of the things I really want. I hope I can follow your lead, and do things how I want.
That welded wire is good for the deer and what not, but I'd dig a trench about 12 inches deep between the post holes and run a fine 1/2" welded wire about 36" in width to keep the smaller critters out, and have it be one foot below ground level and the other two feet above it. One hot wire mounted about 18" up will keep the raccoons, Opossums and any other climbing critters out as well.Here in the Illinois Suburbs, it's the rabbits, Voles, Tree squirrels and even 13 lined ground squirrels that devastate everything, even shredding a small Blueberry bush I just planted!
I was 50 yr old when we built our 3rd and final home. We did a lot of work. Well mostly my husband. I did do alot, and I mean alot of painting. Painted 18 doors. All the framing around the doors and windows, the baseboards, walls. I never want to do that again.
I have never been to Idaho but from what I can tell from your and other people's videos, it is absolutely beautiful there! I think it is the most beautiful of all the states out west.
Get 2 foot chicken wire. Attach it 6 inches up on outside of fence. Let the other 18 inches lay flat on the ground. The grass will grow up through it and hold it all in place. That what I did years ago never had anything dig under it. I had my grass cut really short almost to bare ground before I put my wire down.
That fence is going to be beautiful 😍. Y'all are going to make a wonderful home there ❤️!!! I'm surprised we didn't see the kids helping. All 4 of our kids at least try to help when we're working
What a beautiful scenery to see the mountains Im so glad your doing your garden first to ensure your food for the winter You got your game plan on Best wishes Stay strong God bless
I like the idea of the electric fence,wherever it needs to be situated. Solar charger is what we are looking into. Our little raised bed unit has a six foot fence, but the top is capped. When we expand, an electric fence is a must! You have your priorities in good order!
Love how you to work together. Ralph (my husband works 10 to 16 hours 4 days a week. Soon we will be out in the country. .Love and Hugs from Sapulpa, Oklahoma
Find some thorny berry bushes to plant along the fence to get both natural barbed wire but also a long area to pick berries. You will also provide a large amount of food for bees so good for any local hives and if you start bees yourself. That they are so easy to clone by putting the end of a branch into a pot of soil helps to quickly get enough plants to cover all the fence. It can also help to select types that ripen at different times to spread out the harvest and when they are flowering. One of those cheap 10x10 canopy help give you a dry spot to work from in the rain for a cutting station. Need to work on the truck in the rain? put the canopy over it to give you a dry spot to work. Digging a hole in the rain? canopy over it to help keep the rain from turning the hole into muck. Need to work in the sun in the middle of summer? canopy over the work area to have some shade. The feet have spots to drive in rebar or a landscape spike so some protection from the wind trying to take it.
Absolutely picturesque property. I wish my property was that green. I live also on a 30 acre goat homestead in the middle of the Australian outback, and living through a severe drought. What pasture I had was all eastern by kangaroos. Love your channel hommie
Melissa, I grew some of this awesomely beautiful and fun glass gem corn this year. I have watched your videos trying to find out how you remove the dried kernels and wondered if you had a different method than other using you fingers.
That type of work looks fast and easy but it is not. Good video and great work! All the best. Lilly
Thank you so much! Honored to have you watching. Big fans!

If people haven't already, now is the time to ensure food for their family! Your land is beautiful ✌
100% just built and planted 10 4x12 garden beds, 65 chickens growing, and rabbits on the way!
I live in a shared garden so ive just nicked a space abd planted food and traded with the neighbors for other stuff in exchange for chores
beautiful land that used to be public lands sold by the communist government so they could tax it. But yes they are lucky to have it.
You've got a great motto: "Make excuses or make it happen." That's the spirit!
I applaud your priorities. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Excellent cartwheels 😂

Orchard first because they take long time start to produce and don't demand a lot work after planted.

It would be so easy to work outside with such a beautiful view all day. Can't Waite to see the finished garden fence.
I like that style fence. I can't wait to see the finish and how you fill in the gaps at the bottom.
Can’t get enough of the beautiful mountains
Great job on the garden guys !! I love the Mountain View you have !

My favorite family good to see you.. Blessings
Just love the sound of the gravel. It’s sounds like progress. Good job guys. Beautiful piece of property.
Great ;looking fence. I would suggest that at some point you put a couple of feet of chicken wire from the bottom of your fence down into the ground, especially where you have large gaps. Two to three feet down and a bend at the bottom will generally deter the rabbits etc from entering. Great sized garden. I look forward to watching it progress. Stay safe!
I like your music selection. Wish I was about 35 years younger. I would have love to do some kind of homesteading. I do my best with small space gardening as I live in an apartment. Live the life and love it!!!!
Good simple living is the best!! I’ve watched and followed all of their rabbits and gardening advice. I finally got some rabbits and I’ve even started my own channel. I’m trying to make it like theirs. I’d love some support/feedback from anyone. Thanks so much!!
I have used electric wire strung around the lower part of my garden fences. On touch will stop all little creatures, on the top stops all deer. It works so well.
Y'all are such an inspiration to me, and of course to others. Both of you think so very much like I do about life in general, about homesteading, and about "making it happen." Love that spirit! We have endured well over 30 inches of rain here so far this year on my 20 acres in Jackson, Mississippi so if I waited on dry weather, not much would get done around here! At least you seem to have drier dirt to plant a garden in. I used raised beds primarily for my organic gardening which helps a lot but it still been incredibly muddy just walking around in the garden.
I'm completely thrilled to see your family set up on your land and I cheer for each step of progress you make. As Johnny Cash used to say "Press On!"
Had to comeback to watch some of these fantastic videos, love your sence of humor guys, Jeremy is a trip, he cracks me up when he tells Melissa " Giggity Giggity , lol 🤣😆 hahaha... Just great guys 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😃 Oh and to make sure I press that like button. Making sure I got all of them. (Videos)
Thank you for being with us so long! Merry Christmas to you ❤️
@@GoodSimpleLiving oh thank you guys , Merry Christmas 🎄 to you as well.
It took me to forever to understand the staggering thing, but I totally got it when I saw the fencing going up the slope. It looks nice!
The garden fence is big and beautiful looking ,can't wait to see the finished product and see all the things you are going to plant ! Happy dance !😄💕👍
When putting up fence you usually follow the lay of the land, in the end it will be more esthetically pleasingly.
It looks great. Great job. I can't wait to build my garden when I get up there
After you get the fencing up you can alway's use chicken wire on the low place's. Bury it down a foot and then bend it out away from the fencing, L shape. That way if something try's to dig under it they'll run into fencing. You 2 are smoking it !! Stay safe and healthy. God bless
Great job great video as always!!! You guys look so Relaxed and Giddy!!!!!! I know things have to get done, but you're Happy Happy!!!!! Your on Your Time Now!!!! And that's what makes a great so happy for you God bless!!!!!!
It would be nice to work out something to get the dirt turned up & amended for planting sooner. I have chainlink fencing completely enclosing the entire garden installed PVC pipe on the chainlink top installed sprinklers and I should have run PVC along the beds for soakers but used two hoses one for each side. Went back and made raised beds in a stepping up sections. On one side I shaded 3/4ths up the side. My unique situation is the heat in AZ(105 -115) at times that can really affect the garden. Early morning I would use the above sprinklers like it was raining and then used the hose to flood the beds. I harvested more than I would ever eat so traded for things that I needed including my first 4-5yrs killing 16 -20 rattlesnakes or shared with the fire dept for removing Gila Monsters and some of the snakes. I am so glad that I am following you so that I can relive my life that is now gone. Being disabled and using a walker I can't maneuver through the beds. It seems that there's no kids old enough to help & handyman wants an large amount of money. The one bad thing about living so far out & 68. Figuring other ways to have a few veggies,herbs & melons planted.
You two are an inspiration and I commend you for sticking to your project in good or bad weather! Proves how strong your determination to build this piece of land into your home. Looking forward to watching your progress!!
Yay! Love to watch y'all. May God bless your garden.
Good job looking ahead. Lovely homestead.💝
Safety first please. You're out in the back country. Eye coverage please. 💜💜
Making my favorite fence. 💖 solar caps on the posts? Solar motion detectors?
Great video! It is coming along great out there! That’s a neat way you’re doing that fence ! I like it!
Awesome video, y’all, keep up the good work. BLessing from Georgia. ❤️💙💚💜
Hi if you can learn to graft trees like apple, cherry ect. Then one tree and the energy to keep it is less and your variety is more. P.s. you can graft hops and create Amazing Beer 🤫
I enjoy following you! It is very wonderful having ones own place close to nature! You guys and me will be building up our homesteads on eather side of the atlantic 😉💛🌞🙏😇
Lot's of love from Sweden!
That fence is turning out so good! You guys rock. I would not worry to much about critters getting under it. Since you are doing raised beds just make them tall enough that rabbits won't be a problem. Anything smaller than a rabbit would be able to get through the fence anyway.
1:30 Not the most graceful dismount I’ve seen, but it was obviously a loving gesture. Blessings from Texas.
I absolutely love how the garden is coming along! You two are some of the hardest working people i have met! Love the happy dance too!! 💃💃💃🤣❤❤
So my daughter and her boyfriend are currently living in a motor home inside his parents pole barn
Pretty cool setup
Can’t imagine what it would be like waking up and seeing that beautiful mountain range each day. Thanks for the inspiration to one day do something similar!
Get those fruit trees in, one of the first tings I did. Looking good, love the vistas.
Richard Simpson Agree with you. That was my number one recommendation when they asked subscribers for suggestions.
They'd freeze without a greenhouse. Maybe a greenhouse inside the fenced off area?
Recovering Soul They are going to build a greenhouse in the fenced area. Buy fruit trees for the zone you live in so the trees must be able to withstand Idaho winters.
@@recoveringsoul755 You would be surprised, most stone fruits do well here as well as apples. Zone 4
@@homeandgardendiaries6384 yep. Plant an early variety and figure out what root stock they are. I would recommend gala trees.
Put the fencing on the ground and the compensate with the top boards
Fantastic job!!!! Fencing looks awesome.
Taking in the scenery with the beautiful music and you two, this is how a marriage lasts. It's a partnership. Love your channel. New member coming soon. 🌹🌺🙏
Hi just found your channel. What stunning scenery. 💚❤.You guys are so blessed. 💚❤ from Ireland. 🇮🇪
I catch myself looking more at the environment and nature than at your hard work. So beautiful, those mountains in the background.
What a beautiful place..keep on with the hard work. You'll have a bountiful garden before long.
I think you would really benefit from a good quality cordless tool set ,keep up the great work .
Hard work work! That is going to be a very nice garden area, the rails look great. Keep after it, you guys are awesome. Stay safe stay healthy 👍♥️🇺🇲
Keeping the looks and if you want to keep out the little critters attach chicken wire to the bottom rail and bury it in the ground, if you go out from the fence 300mm plus, it also keeps out the digging critters too. That's what we had to do around our chicken coop to keep wild dogs and foxes out
There is nothing more satisfying than accomplishing a task and doing it together makes it even more important!
Agreed! Thank you Mary.
You are so correct. They are expecting food shortages.
They are dumping milk, plowing under vegetables, and telling farmers to cull their herds. And importing beef from Nambia!!!
The deer and elk have been experiencing food shortages for a long time.
You two are such hard workers!! I admire that!! You get it done!
*It's not food shortages; it's the DISTRIBUTION of food that's becoming a problem.* The US creates, and has pretty much always created, PLENTY of food *(just look at how much food is WASTED in this country!);* what's happening now is that the lockdowns are starting to drastically affect the supply chains that get the food from the producers, to the stores. Empty shelves don't mean food isn't being produced; it means food can't get to the stores as it should, on schedule. That's why more and more states are moving towards re-opening; the longer this continues, the more problems there will be. Within another month or so, I believe the lockdowns will be drastically reduced; we're already seeing signs of this in Florida and Georgia... as well as states like the Dakotas. The restrictions need to be lifted where it makes sense to do so (in other words, where the illness has slowed or been reduced), so that people can start to go back to work - and the supply chains can be restarted again. NO ONE knows how long all of that's going to take... *but I believe we need to be moving in that direction. Which is one reason why Melissa and Jeremy picked the PERFECT time to get out of Washington state, and start their homestead; moving away from the areas of higher cases of COVID-19 (as WA State is right now) protects their family, as well as positions them to insulate against a lot of the stuff going on right now. And, by the time things start to stabilize, they will be more settled into their new lifestyle, still homeschooling, still raising their own food... and developing their property! I wish more people were in that position!*
Please see the ,Ice age farmer.he explains the AItake over going on by the new world order.
I have been enjoying your videos (your adventure) so much. I LOVE how the two of you ask other's advice but do what makes you happy. I love that ! I hope I'm strong enough to do the same as I transition to my homestead. I've already had people try to talk me out of some of the things I really want. I hope I can follow your lead, and do things how I want.
That welded wire is good for the deer and what not, but I'd dig a trench about 12 inches deep between the post holes and run a fine 1/2" welded wire about 36" in width to keep the smaller critters out, and have it be one foot below ground level and the other two feet above it.
One hot wire mounted about 18" up will keep the raccoons, Opossums and any other climbing critters out as well.Here in the Illinois Suburbs, it's the rabbits, Voles, Tree squirrels and even 13 lined ground squirrels that devastate everything, even shredding a small Blueberry bush I just planted!
I homestead myself... Most important things are whatever secures Food... Water... An shelter... An all the things that go with it....
I was 50 yr old when we built our 3rd and final home. We did a lot of work. Well mostly my husband. I did do alot, and I mean alot of painting. Painted 18 doors. All the framing around the doors and windows, the baseboards, walls. I never want to do that again.
Amazing job, guys! There is nothing like kicking your feet up after a hard day's work on your own property.
You guys definitely are perfectionists. Love the 100% into everything, and Jeremy's motivational speeches.
I have never been to Idaho but from what I can tell from your and other people's videos, it is absolutely beautiful there! I think it is the most beautiful of all the states out west.
Y'all are living the dream...and you have a beautiful view..👍🏼
WOW major progress. Great job guys
Get 2 foot chicken wire. Attach it 6 inches up on outside of fence. Let the other 18 inches lay flat on the ground. The grass will grow up through it and hold it all in place. That what I did years ago never had anything dig under it. I had my grass cut really short almost to bare ground before I put my wire down.
That fence is going to be beautiful 😍. Y'all are going to make a wonderful home there ❤️!!! I'm surprised we didn't see the kids helping. All 4 of our kids at least try to help when we're working
The trees, mountains, clouds and blue sky in the background are so beautiful they look fake! So pretty. Good job today! Time for a cold one🍺🍺
Thank you so much, and yes, cracking one open!!
What a beautiful scenery to see the mountains
Im so glad your doing your garden first to ensure your food for the winter
You got your game plan on
Best wishes
Stay strong
God bless
I love seeing you two do the happy dance 💃. Take care and be safe. Blessings to you and your family.
I like the idea of the electric fence,wherever it needs to be situated. Solar charger is what we are looking into. Our little raised bed unit has a six foot fence, but the top is capped. When we expand, an electric fence is a must! You have your priorities in good order!
Love how you to work together. Ralph (my husband works 10 to 16 hours 4 days a week. Soon we will be out in the country. .Love and Hugs from Sapulpa, Oklahoma
Find some thorny berry bushes to plant along the fence to get both natural barbed wire but also a long area to pick berries. You will also provide a large amount of food for bees so good for any local hives and if you start bees yourself. That they are so easy to clone by putting the end of a branch into a pot of soil helps to quickly get enough plants to cover all the fence. It can also help to select types that ripen at different times to spread out the harvest and when they are flowering.
One of those cheap 10x10 canopy help give you a dry spot to work from in the rain for a cutting station. Need to work on the truck in the rain? put the canopy over it to give you a dry spot to work. Digging a hole in the rain? canopy over it to help keep the rain from turning the hole into muck. Need to work in the sun in the middle of summer? canopy over the work area to have some shade. The feet have spots to drive in rebar or a landscape spike so some protection from the wind trying to take it.
Absolutely picturesque property. I wish my property was that green. I live also on a 30 acre goat homestead in the middle of the Australian outback, and living through a severe drought. What pasture I had was all eastern by kangaroos. Love your channel hommie
Melissa, I grew some of this awesomely beautiful and fun glass gem corn this year. I have watched your videos trying to find out how you remove the dried kernels and wondered if you had a different method than other using you fingers.
