    What can I possibly write?!? Outstanding! All three of you!! For those of us who have followed you literally for YEARS, all the way back to the first homestead build (so very, very much accomplished there), watching you AND Gina be able to free yourselves from working outside your homestead and building a phenomenal TH-cam channel…that journey has not been easy! You guys have worked your butts off so even though I suffer a little envy ( I think I missed the new 25 tractor debut), I’m not jealous BUT, I am so profoundly thankful for your success! Our God has richly blessed you in so many ways, but giving you a work ethic that should be taught in every school today, and the patience to wait on Him and follow His direction, well….God is good and rewards those who follow His word!!! I cannot tell you how exciting it is and how much of a blessing it is for US, Lumnah Acres Homestead subscribers! Hey you guys, it’s almost time to start writing that book!!!😁 I’m going to bed now…rejoicing with you guys and thanking Jesus for you and the journey you are sharing…showing us all, that He is ALIVE and still pouring out blessings on His children!!❤️

      I lived in a small town where it is not uncommon for the power go after bad storms. Fortunately, power is back after an hour or so. However there may be a time when power is gone much longer. I'm a senior and disabled so being without power is worrisome. Having solar power connected to my home is confusing. This vlog has provided much needed information about Lion Energy. I've checked out their website and will contact them soon. Thank you!

    I must say that you guys really planned out this new Farm/Homestead/Off-Grid Property. Your Solar energy system looks and I can tell from how big your array is, that you mean to power up a lot on this property. You always do a very professional job and are concerned about the job being done correctly from the first step. Can't wait to see what 2022 brings in the way of more growth. Happy New Year to you all...

    With as much wind as you're getting there in the open space, you might want to consider, for the future, installing one windmill to supplement for those days that you get more wind than solar so that you'll have a backup power source. Just a thought, if you haven't already considered it.

      Providing power for one's home (if off-grid) should be a multifaceted - solar, wind and hydro - geothermal as well for heat. They have quite a few streams on the property - at the top of their private road, there's that pretty good sized stream (past videos show them driving over the bridge up there with the Mule - th-cam.com/video/nfiZTmkGclw/w-d-xo.html ). A small hydro plant there with an inverter to convert the DC to AC (AC travels farther on smaller gauge wire) plus your windmill asthey appear to have plenty of wind in their house clearing. That would set the Lumnahs up nicely for electrical power. Geothermal would work nicely for the greenhouse and keeping the animals a tad warmer...

    wow! i would like to say "a long time coming" but all of what has happened, is less than a year old! i remember the episode "we bought 500 acres", then the explore, the lumbering, the cabin build, the tool house potty building, septic, well, creek dam, seeding, house build. all in a year! you two are amazing!
    It was good to see Olivia at the house, i had wondered if she had been on property during any of this.
    You have been and are, a testament to hard work, having a dream and making it real. I am proud of you, of your courage, your planning, tenacity, and family values.
    And I am really , really, thankful that you allowed us to look over your shoulders,, I know that setting cameras, planning shots, endless editing is beyond a pain in the tukus. But i am so glad you did! Thank you, congratulations on power, here's to heat and a move to the ogp soon!
