What I love about this series (among many things) is how they integrate people from the community to help them out with machinery, techniques etc. It's touching to see how old people feel their knowledge valued and become enthusiastic about it. Just so heartwarming to see them talking about the way things were done in the past. Just lovely :)
The three main characters got into the spirit of the Victorian life to an amazing degree. This was probably the best series I have ever seen. Thanks to the people who worked on this project including the principal characters, the locals, any actors and producers as well as any other specialists such as camera people, etc.
On modern-day farms, though the technology has changed, certainly the emotions, attachment, level of attention and need for wisdom have not. It truly is "a way of life". Cheers and blessings to our world's farmers, from days of yore and now.
@jeff L. There is an annual agricultural exhibition in Berlin and 45 years ago they had - in a remote corner - a PC with a "simulation 'game'", where you were "playing" an aid worker somewhere in Africa. You were given a budget of $1000 and could decide what to do with the money. Dig a well, buy cattle, get medical supply running ... and I spent hours there to try to "win", but after about 20 years the wells usually ran dry or the cattle had eaten all the vegetation or there were three times the number of people to feed compared with the starting position. tl;dr Farming isnt something you can "plan" and "declare" at a desk ... you NEED the actual experience on the field and the wisdom gathered from generations. One such wisdoms is: never rely on only one crop / produce ...
@Big Bill O'Reilly The School system is Mexico is trash. Even though I went to a private kindergarten, middle school and high school. None teaches you how to grow potatoes anymore.
That's because most of what they wrote in history books are a lie.not all but half of just a lil bit less.so me and been forgotten.glad they're bringing the real truth,honesty and harm work and true hardship come to true light
Peter: "necessity is the mother of all invention" Waterproof cloth: "I'm about to end this man's whole career" Edit: Just finished the video and I'm really sad that the series ended, it was a really lovely series
Fortunately, there's four or six more of them, depending on your area of interest! Four more Farm series, one on the Victorian Pharmacy and one on castle-building in the 13th century.
@@HinekoAkahi There's also Wartime Farm (farming in Great Britain during WW2), Edwardian Farm, Tudor Monastery Farm, Green Valley (I think that's what it is called) and maybe one more of the farm series. I think The Green Valley was the very first one.
I saved this to watch on my TV. I learned so much from this one episode, absolutely amazing! This was an incredible series, and being in USA and just finding it I'm devastated that it has ended. Bravo to everyone involved in these amazing projects, from Tudor monastery to building castles (!), to the Victorian and Wartime farms. I have learned even more than my old world parents ever taught me. Thanks again from an American fan! I hope to never stop learning!
I don't know if you have already. But they also have the 12-part series, Edwardian Farm, available on UA-cam also. I absolutely loved it so thought you may enjoy it also 😃
I'm completely addicted to these series. More than just "history brought to life" there's joy brought to the history. I cannot pick a favorite historian here and what gift to all the artisans who kept these crafts alive to mentor and guide this fabulous trio. I can't get enough.
As an American, I must say I agree. It's absolutely fascinating. I'd do almost anything for the chance to spend a year going back in time. How lucky these people are.
Oh I absolutely loved this series, I wish there would have been more episodes just showing their everyday live, even with nothing "exciting" happening. Ruth is always such a joy to watch and the men did great with the animals (Peter and the pigs had me choked up for a second there).
I’m so sad this series at this location was over. It’s amazing how emotionally invested I become in the characters and animals I became. Cheers all!

The print shop took me back. I started on a 'flatbed press', using the stick, and progresses to lino-type and flong, to offset litho, from junior reporter and eventally editor.....a really, realy great series....
When I was watching the last episode of GOT I did not cry, but I cried almost the whole time during this episode. Ruth, I am your biggest fan. Saw already a lot of you by watching this channel and your enthusiasm is so very addictive. You can put the whole cast of GOT before me and you but I will run in to you and give you a huge hug! And of course Alex and Peter, you two are quite a duo and I love how you working together! Thank you so incredible much, all three of you, for this series, up to the Edwardian farm. But not now, I first have to recover from this series.
I agree he is quite handsome and he seems to be kind. Really did enjoy the farming series, everyone did a wonderful job keeping us intrigued. Have learned quite a bit. I do give Ruth credit though. I don’t think I could deal with the animals heads.🤢
I like how the boys are always scheming or doing dumb kids stuff when Ruth isn't around >let's make beer >bruh but we didnt have that thingamajig >it's okay just use Ruth's chamber pot lid instead
I don't blame them.it's to pass the time and to take their mind off the really hard work they're doing.I'd do the same.everyone has different ways of doing it.it's their way.better off than being pissed.some would and would given up.good sports really
I wish they would put the years these videos were recorded in the description. In my head, they are this year, but then I see they are out of order and not even the same series when they are supposed to be living a whole year at each site. There have even been a few series that I only saw a few episodes and never found any others. Ruth, Alex, and Peter are probably the best history teachers ever, but finding all the videos in one spot seems to be a hard job. I am grateful more videos have been released recently!
It was filmed in 2007.....the land owner even says so in the episode that they finish the pig sty. They put in the last stone with his initials and in Roman numerals under it is MMVII aka 2007. I believe it is episode 2.
It is more than a way of life that has been lost, it is the sense of community that has been the greatest loss in modern times. No one seems to be connected to anyone anymore. The more I try and connect with people around me, the more frustrated I get as I am turned away and laughed at. This whole series has been an eye opener about the struggles of farming in an age without electricity. My family were farmers that farmed during the great depression, and I have learned the lessons of the past to prepare for an uncertain future. I asked one elderly relative how great grandfather weathered the depression; he did not play the stock market, but lost everything when the banks failed. The reply was..my great grand father's family could only afford to eat what they had raised or grown on the farm; sometimes, it was so bad all they had to eat were potatoes. Guess what I planted this year...
Dee Zimmo SMART good for you. I think part of romanticizing the past, even knowing how hard and sometimes awful it was, is because if shit hit the fan, they knew what to do. How many people now can make bread if all they’re given is a bag of flour? Let alone grinding their own grain. Can they make soap, or even scrub their clothes by hand? There’s so many basic skills, like sewing, that are lost to all but artisans and hobbyists. They used to be major life skills. And we never know when we may seriously need them again.
@@Val.Kyrie. Agreed 100%. As convenient as our modern lives are, it scares me sometimes just HOW dependent we are on that convenience. We had a big storm which caused a 24 hour power outage here recently, and it was chaos! It's a bit pathetic, really; we're so lacking in actual life skills that one single day without electricity and mod cons renders us so helpless and panicked. I grew up on farms, and not only does it teach self sufficiency, creativity and problem solving skills, it also teaches us a sense of appreciation and gratitude for the things we have. The easier it is to acquire something, the less we tend to appreciate it. The sense of satisfaction that comes with having made ( or grown) something yourself from scratch is something so many people miss out on now in this world of instant ( and, by default, shortlived) gratification. We've exchanged the concept of "quality over quantity" with mindless, wasteful excess. Instead of doing things thoroughly, we opt to rush through them as fast as we can so that we can get to the next thing ( so we can rush through that, etc etc). We've forgotten what it is to live in the moment; to immerse ourselves in a process. Life is harder in terms of physical labour when you live closer to nature, but less stressful, somehow.
I’m sitting here also incredibly sad that it’s over. I sort of stumbled upon this series and loved every minute of it. I enjoy history and archaeology and anthropology - and this program was phenomenal. I would enjoy watching more details of their year on the Victorian farm. I’m honestly surprised it was only six episodes. They all did a wonderful job, and obviously so did the crew.
this channel absolute history deserves more than an award for beautiful videos which i think they put all energy from there hearts to make beautiful and more informative.
Such hard work but a much more rewarding life and so aesthetically pleasing. Closer to the earth, greater sense of community and traditions, gratitude for what one had, no matter how little. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would gladly live this life.
I truly hate to see these different series come to an end. Bitter sweet. They are produced so beautifully and the educational quality is unmatched. Great chemistry among Ruth, Pete and Alex. They make one just want to see the next video. Please do more! Thank you!
It does make me sad when these come to an end. I don't want them to stop. This team is so incredible together. There is such a wealth of information that they bring and that they learn. And you fall in Love with the whole village. (And Peter more of course.) But the whole village. And You just Don't want it to end. :(
i really enjoyed this series ♡ as well as the medieval and the tudor period one. Something about life in the past is very interesting. And thank you for giving us very insightful videos to watch during quarntine :)
One thing I am curious about, in the first episode they say that the guys have to thresh wheat that is traditionally left by the last tenant, and in the last episode they are leaving the wheat to be threshed by the next tenant. Is that a 'for this show' kind of thing, or did the Victorian farmers actually move around? I've always been under the impression that unless disaster hits, a family would stay on that farm for generations.
M Caskey i think that’s the show, because they were only staying for the year. I guess it’s to show the process that would have happened when one group moved off and new ones moved in. If they were doing two years or something, my guess is that we wouldn’t see them leave the field for the next people until the two years were up.
I am so incredibly addicted to these three! I was so upset & disappointed this series came to an end. I've been binge watching everything I could find with Ruth, Peter & Alex!! I thought this was probably the last one but thanks to someone else's post, I'll be looking up The Victorian Pharmacy one! Hopefully it's a full season and not an episode!
I love this. I think it’s my favourite episode of the series. The skills and techniques shown throughout the series have been eye opening. Peter is also pretty adorable in this episode - clearly I have a favourite. lol
As much as I have enjoyed this series the title of this video is seriously misleading lol. The printing press is almost an afterthought lol It should be titled “Beer and Harvesting wheat and animals” That is much more accurate a description of the video than the current title lol.
This series gives better appreciation of “today’s “ comforts. As well as appreciation for the Amish people who farm without machinery. No electricity, and so on
"You may have the key, but we changed the locks" is my favourite quote from this, bless these people, i am glad they ĺoved it, i know i loved learning about it.
All these series they have made are great.. watching starting at the tutor Monastery and going through time and watching all the series is the best way to go. To see the advancements in technology.. I love them all!!
Wild blueberries are much tastier than cultivated ones you can get in the store. I remember going blueberry picking as a kid with my grandma and there’s just no contest, imo.
Wow, when I saw Ruth with the big scythe, I was reminded of my own youth in the early 1980s America. I learned to use a scythe just like that. Wonderful series, thanks again.
I have watched several of these shorts, and have gotten to know Ruth quite well. I am here to tell you...Ruth, is one tough, hard working woman. I can only imagine, how much a good woman like her, was worth in those Victorian Times. I don't see how a man could raise a family without a woman of her character, and robustness. I am impressed. My luck...I would have gotten stuck with a California Valley Girl type, and starved to death.
Such a wonderful series! You three are remarkable. I've loved every episode because you are so engaged in the whole lifestyle. It was very touching to see the guys get emotional with the animals. And Ruth is my hero as she responded to all her challenges.
They show at 35 the lamb pen in the pasture but they have heavy wooden hurdles. In an earlier episode Ruth made a Wattle fence. They used to make Wattle fence sections called hurdles to pen the lambs in the field and every day a boy would add three sides to the pen then open the 4th side and drive them over one and the next day do it again with the extra 3 sides
My warmest congratulations guys for watching produced in the ordeal you went through to provide us as much as possible how life spurs from earth water air fire. .... and you begets a nation and a civilization! Above all the love of God Almighty and the blessing of thereof.! Kudos‼️👍🏻
All the living history series are extremely well done. All the way up to wartime farm. Wish I could afford to buy these on DVD. I watch these over and over on UA-cam.
The Rural Policeman was assigned to a village & a special house was provided for Lodging. They tended to integrate better within the community and became trusted and popular.
Yes...the poster worked!!! (And just think...what are the odds, everyone in the village who volunteered...just happened to own Victorian age clothes). What are the odds!!!!😁
“A dream come true”, if the weather works out. Just the same then and now. At the end of the work project, be it harvest, fences built, or firewood processing, we always shared a great meal too. Kentucky
Rest In Peace Mr. Acton, who died in June 2020 at 95 years of age.

I´VE LEARNED MORE IN THIS SERIES THAN IN MY WHOLE SCHOOL YEARS
That’s honestly just because school can’t find itself to be interesting

I prefer Alex but Peter is cute too! ☺️
Wow, when I saw Ruth with the big scythe, I was reminded of my own youth in the early 1980s America. I learned to use a scythe just like that. Wonderful series, thanks again.
This series has taught me where so many of today's sayings originated
This was so beautiful, I think I'm going to cry
Loved that. It looked like quite the experience.
I have so much enjoyed these series. Thank you.
So sad to see this series end. I really enjoyed it. Would love to see more!!
I've absolutely loved watching this program and the 1900 Island. So great. We need more of these💯
A fine presentation in every way. It brings the tears to this old man's eyes!
I have watched several of these shorts, and have gotten to know Ruth quite well. I am here to tell you...Ruth, is one tough, hard working woman. I can only imagine, how much a good woman like her, was worth in those Victorian Times. I don't see how a man could raise a family without a woman of her character, and robustness. I am impressed. My luck...I would have gotten stuck with a California Valley Girl type, and starved to death.
Some poor woman with bad luck might have gotten stuck with you.
I just love the way they do everything themselves, I love watching all of them. Thank you so much.
Such a wonderful series! You three are remarkable. I've loved every episode because you are so engaged in the whole lifestyle. It was very touching to see the guys get emotional with the animals. And Ruth is my hero as she responded to all her challenges.
They show at 35 the lamb pen in the pasture but they have heavy wooden hurdles. In an earlier episode Ruth made a Wattle fence. They used to make Wattle fence sections called hurdles to pen the lambs in the field and every day a boy would add three sides to the pen then open the 4th side and drive them over one and the next day do it again with the extra 3 sides
Thank you for that! I'm so sad that is finished
@6:43..."When was this machine last used?" Bahahahahahahahahaha! Now that...was funny. I spit out me tea!!!
their luck with the weather was much worse in this series than the edwardian farm. that's how it goes i suppose. i love these three!
No one:
Printing press: "I'm about to change everything"
23:30 Im sure Ruth has fired off in anger in that chamber pot lid once or twice 🤣
The lid of ruth's chamber pot?!?!?! Really!?!?!
Super arousing, right?
just pray shes not a night-wee'er and the pot was decorative only :P
My warmest congratulations guys for watching produced in the ordeal you went through to provide us as much as possible how life spurs from earth water air fire. .... and you begets a nation and a civilization! Above all the love of God Almighty and the blessing of thereof.!
Kudos‼️👍🏻
I think the sheep farmer is my favourite xD
I shed a tear...
Good stuff
All the living history series are extremely well done. All the way up to wartime farm.
Wish I could afford to buy these on DVD. I watch these over and over on UA-cam.
What a journey!!! Absolutely loved this series! We need more!!
They need to upload Victorian Farm Christmas and Tales From The Green Valley
What a wonderful series ❤️❤️❤️ I absolutely loved watching every bit of it!
Please please do more. I cannot get enough. This made me cry omg!!
“I’d like to order a poster”
“What size?
“Poster size” love it
The Rural Policeman was assigned to a village & a special house was provided for Lodging.
They tended to integrate better within the community and became trusted and popular.
Is that Charles Dance as the Landlord?
Mr. Acton does favor Charles Dance doesn't he?!? I never thought of that but it's pretty cool 😎!
More please.
Thanks. Liked, and Shared.
I love these.
sad to say good by to another great series.
I loved these videos!
Peter definitely cried over those pigs :(
I love these series…
If there's anything I wouldn't do no matter what, is to stand in the middle of the field when it's raining
Yes...the poster worked!!! (And just think...what are the odds, everyone in the village who volunteered...just happened to own Victorian age clothes). What are the odds!!!!😁
“A dream come true”, if the weather works out. Just the same then and now. At the end of the work project, be it harvest, fences built, or firewood processing, we always shared a great meal too. Kentucky
