Important Update on our Absence
Переглядів 732 роки тому
We haven't posted a video for awhile now, and I thought I would take a minute (8 more like it) to explain. It would be putting it lightly to say that things have escalated a little in our world lately, and I think we could all use a moment, even if it is a fleeting moment, to remember that we can still be kind. We can still be loving. We don't choose what happens to us in life, but we do choose...

Hello this is Jack how is your son
Thank you! We will try and make this!
its so good! we are planning our picking soon! checkout the fireweed tea as well, its delicious!
Grew up on a farm (Australia), a couple of my brothers were shearers so this brought back memories. Once one of them at a shearing competition sheared a sheep with hand shears while blindfolded without nicking their skin. The other had (at the time) the endurance shearing world record, something like 1000 sheep in 36 hours.
I want more vidddeeeooossssss
Hey Edd nice shearing.. lol
Thats pretty impressive can't wait for update
Nice! I really like the camping roll up spice pouch!❤️❤️❤️
Thanks! I like it as well :)

What time of year do you take the leaves?
Great question, we were harvesting in July but you can start whenever you see them, we like to leave it until we know the flowers are almost done (when they are near the top of the plant) as to not hinder the bees. The only difficulty in that is by this time of year you are very close to when the leaves are browning and you want green and fresh. So I would say regionally you have to just keep an eye on them, for us this is July that we start.
Now

Surprised there aren’t more likes on this video
I am thankful for every view! thanks for watching
Keep the videos coming ..very informative
I like this video
Your ancestors would be proud
Oo were do I get one ebay ..kajiji...Walmart..gotta have one!!
So happy for you, Peyton!
I just watched this with my daughter Sofia, and when you were ready to pull the trigger she said "oooh! nice bear! Shoot it!" she was so excited to see how well you did. The first thing she said when the video ended was "I want to watch that again!" Great job you guys!
So exited for her.I just new she would get one sooner or later ..I couldn't be more proud
More!!! we want more!! Atta girl Peyton
Beautiful!! its awesome to see the next generation learning about conservation. (even when the results aren't what we hope)
i couldn't agree more my man!!
Giving this a shot. Nice singing, too. May I ask who the group is?
They are a group I found here on youtube, they are wonderful, here is the link....ua-cam.com/users/outlay51
Love seeing the little ones enjoying the bounty . 🥰 Very precious. Fantastic parenting teaching sustainable harvesting. My little guy and I are enjoying blackberries... not so much the pickers. 😜 Hopefully we will get some rain soon. 🙏🏻Blessing to you and yours.
Thank you! So excited to try making this. Recently found some fire weed around our house and was going to make jelly. Definitely going to try to make tea. I love to make different tea blends. Sending blessings to your family. 🥰
We love this tea! It is so delicious. I recommend experimenting with the fermenting time and the drying time. Soon we will be adding some different blends to it as well. :) love to know how it turns out for you
I'm gonna try this!
awesome video! congrats on the bear! and that impression was bag on hahaha
Thanks!
I’m seriously gonna have nightmares about those mosquitos.
Is that patch of grass crown land? Looks like a farm
What are the legalities for hunting? Do you have to be off the road 400m or anything like that?
depends on the road, you have to be know which road you are on and follow the guidelines. These are all logging side roads well of the main routes
Noice. Shooting from a truck like a texan.
Crap there’s no “don’t reccomend channel” button on an ad :/. That gun was way too big for a little wee black-bear tho. There so scarce now where I live because of “sport” hunting. I’d never imagine getting a tag for one
Where do you live? There’s no shortage round where we are lol
Hey, I wonder if you are familiar with the size of a 50 cal round ball? They aren't in fact very large. Also, what do you mean by sport hunting? Is that to assume we are not harvesting this animal? We are using the fat, the meat, the hide, and we eat this to feed our family of 6. We don't purchase meat from a store (as much as we are able we try to hunt or raise our meat) I always find it interesting having to justify hunting black bears. Where we live they are killing moose at an alarming rate, yet if I were to hunt a moose that might be ok. We are sustainably and ethically hunting these animals, for which we take a great amount of care and responsibility in doing.Thank you for the comment though :)
I would be terrified. I don’t know much about bears but I believe if you missed the kill shot on that bear and it’s cub was nearby, it would charge you. I would never use a gun that I can only fire no more the 4 times a minute
It is hard not to have your heart in your throat. Part of my scouting is to ensure that this is not a mama with a cub, which means lots of watching and waiting. This was a boar (male). With proper shot placement I am not very worried about having a muzzleloader, that being said I did have my 30-06 in the truck just in case.
@@the_shelleys I wouldn’t have a single fear about engaging a bear...it’s those mosquitos that would have me shaking in my boots *shivers*
Yeah man!!!! That is awesome!!!!! Honestly the call to a buddy when you can say “bear down” is one of the most humbling and incredible feelings. Congrats on a beauty my friend!
Moms friend Shannon here. You’ll have to get your mom on here when she visits. Your babies are so cute. Charlie is so big already. God bless
I look forward to part 2
How much does it cost to feed that handsome creature?
We pay between 50-90 dollars per 1000-1200lb bales, in the winter that lasts about a month? and in the summer we rotate them on grass. Id say about 800-1000 dollars to feed for the year
@@the_shelleys that’s not as bad as I would have thought!
Where are the loons? I miss their song.
super cute coop!
So, what does it taste like??? I was surprised to see that you could drink it without processing it
It taste like really cold water with a slight sweetness to it, we love it! I have drank so much of it!
Do you plug the hole when done?
@@drwride yes you do, with a small little stick about a little bigger than the hole
I can’t wait to visit
