    We are a family of 7, our 5th child was born TODAY! We live in a 21' yurt. (350 sqft). We are building out dream home on our farmstead, with logs from the land. We should be braking ground for the foundation within the month. I am a Carpenter-General Contractor by trade and will be building the home myself with my crew and friends. Lord willing it will go smoothly. After living in the yurt for 4 years not, we are ready to have a normal home again.
    We have loved your Channel for many years and it has brought us so much inspiration and knowledge. We raising out dairy goats, layers, pigs (farrow to finish) and turkey flock following a permaculture principle largely because of your family and Joel Salatin.
    God bless y'all

Mum used to shine the torch for us in the middle of the night so we could go pee at the bottom of the stairs as the dunny was not close to the house. All the while making sure there were no deadly snakes about…Australia 😀
