This is the very best homesteading channel I have come across (just subscribed.) The way you explain everything i.e., starting from the basics from gardening, tools, raising animals, water usage, composting, etc., is salient for anyone wanting to understand homesteading which makes you an excellent teacher.

Prayer answered 🤗 as I was getting my coffee and my journal and letting the chickens out I said a prayer, "Lord this is my second summer here and everything looks like such a mess I feel so overwhelmed and it's only one acre" I've watched several of your videos and have learned from all of them. I'm not a new Gardener or a young gardener😅 but self-reliance homesteading is new to me. <br>My answer was in this video.. slow down and work on one thing at a time one area at a time. 🙏 You even reminded me where to stay focused. Thank you so much!

Such a peaceful garden scene — I truly enjoy the slow moments like these. I also love spending time in my little backyard, especially when the geese and chickens wander freely.
