    Can't imagine when you were always looking for Mr Brown shoes and here he is managing the chicks,sea monsters and the eggs,he has come a long way

    It’s so nice to see the family all working together for a common goal. I’m amazed and proud of how Mr. Brown has stepped up this year and is becoming such an important team member! It’s also nice to see he’s not miss placing shoes or boots as often😂

    Jonah is doing amazingly good..
    My friends who have had hip replacement said he would be up and moving quickly.. They are all over 70 years old & their recovery was fast. They couldn't believe just how fast!
    When I told them about Jonah, they heard about the updates And asked if I didn't say anything.
    I work in a retirement home so they know he's 15 & know his story about the motorcycle accident. Plus, they know about your farm.
    I like to bring them into my life, and they enjoy my cat & dog stories and are interested in what I am up to.
    No one liked the maggot bucket for the chicken's LOL
    I wonder why! 😅

    There is no doubt in my mind that farming, living off the land, is very hard work. But this family is so dedicated to it and to each other, it is sustained by love. It was great to see Jonah back to doing work outside. And wasn't it great to see Gideon helping with the milking. Yes, three meals together as a family every day is a very worthwhile goal.😊💖

    Jonah, remember your restrictions. No Crossing your legs,Twisting , bending past 90 degrees. That includes while you a seated. Before you know it you will have no restrictions. Keep up the fantastic job. You are doing great!

    • @stacey_h
      @stacey_h ปีที่แล้ว

      I was wondering if he was doing too much of the wrong things. They said when he left the hospital about having restrictions for 4 weeks. I know he is anxious to get back to farm work but he needs to have thus heal correctly or he will have a life he doesn't want.

  • @marcus3457
    @marcus3457 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Justin, totally agree with what I think you are really saying here. The family will remember and appreciate the three meals together far more than production. We have to be generally productive, but that is so we can enjoy those meals with the family. Productivity for its own sake is empty.

    I love to see the interactions with your children. You provide rules and boundaries while allowing them to be their own unique selves. You obviously enjoy them and have relationships with each one and you give direction and instruction with kindness and patience. I’m sure you have moments….but such a blessing to watch the kids develop and grow in such a loving environment. You and Rebecca are lights in the world.

    Rotational grazing is absolutely the way to manage your land! It is really helpful if you put your water source in the middle and then make your fencing start there and go out into a pie shape of a pasture. From overhead the pastures would look like a pie with the water in the middle! The watering of your livestock is so much easier with just one water tank!

    • @colstace2560
      @colstace2560 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I always wanted to try that for chickens, put the coup in the center of the pie and have them run 1 segment each week, in a non stop "wheel of fortune " type deal

    This is the struggle that I feel. It’s in the kitchen....and it’s less the making of the food but the mess from making the food. Thank you for showing the real...because sometimes homesteading or farming can be romanticized and the real is a very important part to share. 💕

      @Miguel195211 SPOT ON, or letting your 2 year old son hold a sparkler in his hand 😬🙄🤯🧐😦, when I saw that on video 11 days ago , I was shocked and horrified he would even let a toddler do that 😳, even my dad agrees, not to be mean but they're not responsible parents that's a good way for his kid/toddler to have his hand blown off, or even worse get burned from it on his head or hand, OML 🤦‍♂, and if i were him i'd take that video down before CPS sees it, cause then he could lose custody of his kids, he's basically putting himself at risk by now, i'm glad to have parents who care for my safety, unlike these, who let their kids do WHATEVER THEY WANT, I may get mad at my parents for not letting me run outside at night, but i'm glad they're doing it for my safety

    I'm still not convinced of the moving of electric fence as opposed to building paddocks is as efficient. Paddocks are permanent with minimal maintenance, if a person is consistent with repairs. Seems like you all are always chasing animals, moving fences, buying new fences, cutting path for fence to be setup and chasing animals. It would still be allow paddocks to re-fresh and grow new grass, clover, etc if you rotate. Wooden fences with gates between, move livestock around. It can be the same rotation without all the work. JMHO. Still learning. Oh yeah, did I mention chasing animals.
