Limited supplies- family made
Our candles are made with the highest quality materials on the market and hand-poured carefully in the shop. We use eco-friendly soy wax, cotton core wicks, and the finest quality oils. They are lead free, phthalate free, paraffin free, and dye free. Soy candles burn incredibly clean and slow while throwing a wonderful scent for hours! We use the maximum amount of scent the wax can hold so you'll be sure to have a great smelling candle.
Previously, we completed the section of subfloor that ties the second floor into the safe room. We are focusing on tying the south side of the second story into the original A-Frame and building the third structural post that will support a 16ft beam and a 24ft beam. The risk increases with each step we take in this build, and with so much happening around us between work in town, managing the farm, maintaining a somewhat normal life, the kids and our home build, we are starting to question whether or not we are in fact capable of finishing this build alone. The risk might not be worth it. Follow our friends Trent & Allie here @TrentandAllie

We are a couple who are building our own home from the ground up in the mountains of West Virginia. After living near the city our entire lives we finally decided to sell it all, pack up our 3 kids and live in an RV on our 73 acres while building our own debt free, off-grid house and learning to live a more self-reliant life.
Our house build is documented entirely on our main channel "Wild Wonderful Off-Grid" and the buiness/work related side of our life can be found on our secondary channel "Josh and Erin- The After Show". Here you will see us renovating our Cafe, opening/operating the Cafe with goods from our farm, building/furnishing/running our short term rentals, finding/operating our other real estate investments and more.

Agreed! My father was a builder and he and my mother built their first home together. She did more than she should have and in the process fractured her back. She was in her 20’s at the time and medicine then wasn’t what it is now BUT, she lived another 70 + years with back problems and finished up hardly being able to stand up. Be careful!
Thank you for your video - it gives strength and hope for me. Thank you and hello from Ukraine!)❤

Hey Josh, I’m located nearby in loudoun county, if you need a hand on any of the heavy /dangerous parts of the build, I’m happy to lend a hand…. Don’t risk hurting that beautiful family of yours!
Yes, please.❤
Brilliant
So precious watching your girl grow up. You’re doing everything right, including weighing the risks. Take a load off. You’re precious, too. ❤
Thank you for offering the help @BR-il9vl. Thank you so much!!
This seems like God is talking to you and Erin - time to really listen - PLEEZZZ.
I can’t get over how much Ellie has grown. I remember when Erin strapped her to her back and worked. Now Ellie is proving to be quite the worker herself. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Me to. That’s when I started watching also
Ellie is going to be a veterinarian when she grows up. Her love of animals is so heartwarming. Josh & Erin, no more high risk building, you’ve nothing left to prove.
OMG! We need some SMILING LEON merch! LMAO! That's hilarious!!
He's a beauty 😍
Think we called that “Flehmen” when a stallion would do that upturned lip around a mare.
You should name the little black guy LL it's a cool name
So nice to see Trent and Allie visiting once again. It is always such a pleasure to watch your videos. I had tears in my eyes with all of the babies and sweet Ellie's consistently loving and gentle interaction with all of the animals. If she does not become a nationally well known vet it would shock me to my core.
You’ve nothing left to prove building your home. Your personal safety is more important than anything else. You’re too valuable to your children and your viewers to be injured. Get some more bodies and equipment to make your job easier. XXOOXX from Niagara Falls, New York.
Worked a lot of projects over the years, undermanned, sometimes by necessity . In the long run it’s not really worth it.
As previously stated, you both have nothing to prove ….
THIS ❤
Please get equipment to do the top. You both have gone as far as is sensible. ❤❤Please do not risk the safety of your children's parents by disabling them!!
Thank you for the sweet moments with the ewes and lambs and your little lamb. ❤
Ya…I have been watching your channel for many years. The A frame, the AirBNB house, the Cafe and all the other projects around your homestead.
I really think you should bring in help to finish the house. So you can enjoy what you built and relax a Little.
I totally agree.
Hire it out to someone you trust....🕊
Extra Respect for Erin doing all that heavy lifting, I surely pray that neither of you get hurt doing that lifting. I am sorry that I do not live near you or I would Be There to help.
You might want to consider covering the open stairwell, while working on that top floor. Cheers.
Can we all agree the amount of respect we have for these 2 incredible ppl. Building their home piece by piece. Absolute respect from South Africa.
Fully agree from the U.K. 👍🇬🇧
you're a credit to each other and self builders guys. i had a flop sweat watching that last beam. i remember that anxiety so well.
I will start with the end first, how lovely to see Trent and Allie, another nice couple on UA-cam that I follow. Your daughter love of animals is so cute. I was a bit nervous watching you both place those beams in place. (please be cautious)
Stay safe, love from Mike. ❤
Looking at Ellie happy and smiling so full of love for the animals is so prescious. Ellie a little Erin. Work safely folks, your well being is so important at this stage of life.
I agree that you should call out for help.....I think that is smart
I think I was holding my breath when you were setting that last beam🥴 fun seeing the new sheep and the kids.💖🌞👑✝️😃
A moment of confusion to see Trent and Allie, then remembered where I first found them from, good to see good friends catching up.
How do they know each other?
@@JustJokes-bw4fsUltimately they met because of being fellow UA-camrs and both doing DIY house builds. Trent and Allie began YT as Vanlifers and were still doing that when Erin began their YT channel at the beginning of the A frame build. Trent and Allie were doing a Van Life travel series with Kaylee and Jordan (Nomadic Movement/ Morning Movement Coffee) through Mexico and South America until they parted ways in Panama and then Trent and Allie continued on to the southern tip of Argentina. They were there in March 2020 when the lock downs began so, they left their van behind and flew home to Utah. 3 or 4 months later they broke ground on their build. The couples said they'd been talking for a long time before actually finally meeting around a year ago.
Yes .... its been a while since I've watched Trent & Allie, but was so surprised to see them here. I've spent a lot of time in Utah, but haven't been back for far too long. Take care✌🏻
I'm always impressed with you guys. Ellie is so grown up. She is such a sweet, caring girl. What a great job y'all do with your building, your kids,and your care for your animals. Also loved seeing Trent and Allie. I'm a regular on their videos also.
Two of my favorite families together in one video. Who could ask for more. ❤️❤️❤️
That drill skew driver paid for it's self thousand times . Brave without work gloves 👍Amazing Channel 💫
Guys, try a “gin pole” to raise big beams. You already have the stopper on the top of the posts… simply replace the stopper and extend a temporary timber vertical 3 feet above your final location and hoist the big beams up with block and tackle. Your backs will thank you for using leverage over brute force. Always play safely… remembering to answer the question “ what next thing will kill me.”
I just found your channel today, and I am hooked. I am so impressed with your talent, grit, and knowledge. Your farm is amazing!
Aw thank you so much! Thanks for stopping by our channel- we hope you enjoy the videos 🥰
I'm so glad that you found their channel Denise The more you watch it, the more you will be amazed. They are an amazing family.
I have watched this family from the beginning and I feel like a part of their family. I love them so much even if I have never met them. Their hearts and soul is so true, loving and amazing. The work they do and teach is what is missing in the world today.
I just came here after watching Trent and Allie video w you guys and I really like what I see here so far. You remind me a bit of the Texas Couple life uncontianed or something like that. Looking forward to catching up on your videos
Great build y’all be careful- don’t over work yourself ! Raising your children will be the best life you will ever live! Amazing family amazing journey amazing accomplishment s
Missed a couple of “y’all’s” there.
Well said!
Trent and Allie + little Leo 😲😲👍👍👍👍👍
That photo of the mama lying with her two babies, is the cutest ever💕😊
20:30. How adorable, Momma lamb and her babies cuddle in the sun!
Just so you know, you are the most beloved family in this household. You provide the highest quality content while always keeping the eyes on the prize of family. Simply the very best media available. Thank you.
Omg Leon smiling thats awesome hes a happy ram 😊
Leon: -“ it’s a tough job but someone’s got to do it! “ 🐑🐏
I hope to have a marriage like yours one day. Watching you both work together is so refreshing to see💗
It's pleasant to see Trent and Allie with you two, I follow both channels, and you're all friends to me.
So happy to hear you considering help. At least get help with the hardest back breaking stuff. You’re gonna need a healthy back to see you through to the end of your self sustaining life.
Erin you are right on the dangers and i can not believe you handle those big boards but congrats to you that you can / hats of to Ellie what a warm and friendly child with those animals
The both of you scare me to death. Leon makes me Happy And your daughter melts my heart. Lots of love from all of us in northern idaho
I have done this work my whole 27 yr building career,
I’m 42 and facing spinal fusion surgery.
This work is no joke but the show must go on,
To do that last beam lift I would of screwed another stop block on Erin’s end to stop it coming toward her,
All in all ur doing great and I wish the best
Drama gets clicks, they know that
You guys deserve to enjoy your success. It makes me happy seeing hardworking good folk enjoy the fruits of their labor.
My wife and I so love your videos...
Sure have missed you 2... :D
Build is coming along nicely
Brightest Blessings...
Love the Trent,Allie & Leo visits. 🇺🇸🙏
I saw Leo first and thought no way. He can't be that far away from home and then there they were. Two of my favorites. Both of your young ones are so cute. Lucky families!!!
You two frighten me so much I nearly cried when the beam slipped down be so careful you are precious please get some help sending love xx
What a wonderful episode!!! You guys had everything in it!! Glad to see Trent, Allie and Leo in house!!! And The babies are too cute! Thank you for sharing … I was smiling from beginning till end(except for that last beam….) That was nerve racking!!! Stay Safe and Be Well!!
Erin, I mean this with total respect and admiration, you are not only a machine, but a BEAST! I have been in and around construction all my decades, and you would easily outrun many laborers! We've seen you haul sheets of subfloor and sheathing without complaint, lug around an unreal number of concrete blocks, and lift LVLs! While Josh certainly found himself an incredible spouse, you have a salient point about safety! Get a skid steer with stinger or rent a Magne hoist. Oh, and ask Trent, but it's OK to be "a hair out of square!"
Ellie has grown so quickly into a lovely young lady and has the most beautiful eyes. Ellie you are such a dear with the animals, you take good care of all the animals. Have a lovely day.
So exciting to see Trent, Allie, Leon...Love watching them also. Can't wait for you guys to go see their place.❤😊
As a builder I have to say I admire both of you building your family’s home side by side. You have such a beautiful family and your little girl is so precious I have watched her grow from when Erin carried her on her back until now.
You both have so much going on yet still have time for your family but be careful because you will burn out, just take it slow and easy if I were you I would suggest to hire someone to at least dry in the house with the windows and the roof and then you can work on the interior at your leisure. My wife and I are similar to you we renovated a building into a restaurant and night club it took us 18 months working by side 16 hours a day 7 days a week and built a beautiful place which we operated for 12 years until we decided to close it down because our lives were centered around the restaurant and my wife wanted to spec more time with her grand kids. That lasted about a year then we started a concrete business and did that for another 13 years now we are semi retired but after going for so long working like we did it is hard to relax now. So take it easy and enjoy your life and I will follow you and your family grow keep up the good work.
Great to have my two best families together again, both very good builders in their own right. Super duper and their progress I have followed from a wheelchair for a total of 4.5 years, seen all the builds and watched the kids grow up.
I'm 😢 your back is damaged. But happy you follow these channels.
I seriously could not stop smiling ☺ throughout this entire video. Y'all bring so much joy, and happiness to your audience. Especially having your precious children involved, with your day-to-day tasks... Ellie is just such a joy to watch, as she gets so excited with her animals, and seems to never fuss about doing any of her chores each day. That's just a testament to the wonderful job of her parents, that have raised their children in a Godly environment. I look forward to watching many more of your vlogs in the future, but especially, I can't wait to see the completion of your beautiful brand new home. It was a pleasant surprise to see, Trent & Allie there, visiting once again. I remember their last visit, when they were there, helping Y'all hang that boat inside your A-frame house. Anyway, y'all have a blessed week... Much love & respect from Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Hire a crane and assemble the beams on the ground. I'm 90% bedridden because of the same type of risks.
IMHO, hire out to roof framers, I'm a builder, I've seen what can happen... Great to see the herd growing and a treat to see Trent, Allie, and King Leo!
Erin there are not many men that could outwork you and Josh.....What this family has accomplished is NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING
The lamb mommas are awesome! So cute that there are three little Leons on the farm now. Can't wait to see footage of your coffee shop open to the public and underway!
You two are so brave. Way to go with the beams and not dying. OMG so cool to see Trent and Allie at the cafe.
Do a temporary cover of ply on the stairwell. Might take a bit but could save broken bones or worse
Such an amazing family! The kids are all growing up SO incredibly fast! John and Erin, you both are clearly the parents many children wish they had - you should consider writing a guidebook when the house is done, on how to raise good kids while having other demands on your time. Way to go!!!
WOW, that big beam was scary. I'm 62 now, but we built our home here in Texas when I was 40. I did all the lumber take-offs, picked up or ordered every thing for the house. Cut all the rafters and passed them up to my hubby on the roof - but just a ranch style home. Still there were scary moment, reliving them now! Whew!
always a pleasure to see these,,,yes protect yourself, get help .Lambs are a bundle of cuteness.
My heart always drops when the clip comes to the end... :( Thank you all so so much for sharing your life with us, letting us in to feel all the love, the ambition the accomplishments. Amazing, absolutely amazing! ♥
Both of your safety is most important. You've built a beautiful home for your family. ❤
It was a nice surprise seeing Trent, Allie and Leo out for a visit. Ellie is really turning into quite a happy little farmer. She is so cute and loves her responsibilities; it's beautiful to see her thriving Erin. Ol' Leon was happy and smiling with all the new life out in the pasture, he's a character. I loved Ellie's reaction as the ram count kept inching higher. You and Josh did a good job getting those LVL's up and installed. The ridge beam poses a real challenge for a few reasons. Is Josh resistant to renting a piece of equipment to give the mechanical advantage? I noticed someone in a neighboring county offered their help. You should seriously take him up on his offer, I suspect he could get a couple of friends to also come along, I wish I was closer to you. It's at the point that it is dangerous and sketchy and it simply isn't worth risking an accident that would be life changing. I will be thinking of you and praying that you can get Josh to consider the options. Have a good week ahead and be safe. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.
OMG, I was literally holding my breath and my heart was racing. We all know you two can build a
house with your own two hands, but it's time to call in some troops to help get it finished...or at the
very least get the top of the edition on and done, then you two can breeze through the rest. We all
love you and don't want any harm to come to you! One more thing, it was so good to see Chuck in
your Helix ad. We all miss the dear, little guy! Stay safe, much love from snow covered Colorado!❤
Thanks for showing the new lambs really warms my heart
That little kitten you guy’s saved, is so,so big now!❤
Erin continues to be this old lady's hero. Still amazed. But the team work with Josh's knowledge is so great and a comforting thing. So thankful you share it with us!
What a TEAM!! I was holding by breath while the two of you were placing the LVLs. Josh, what a wife you have. I am sure you are very proud of her. Please be careful and safe. I do not want to see either of you injured. Good luck!!!
The Cafe looks good. I can’t drink caffeine, but if I could, your coffee looks like something I would try, Josh looks like he was really enjoying it, maybe a little too much.👍🏻👍🏻
Skip the coffee and come enjoy a cinnamon bun with us! ❤️
It's great to see your home enlargement progress, as well as new lives on the farm, and the coffee shop up and running. Congratulations.
I haven't been able to get to work in over three months now because my boss has not had enough work for the whole winter so I have been with out a job or anyway to support my family but you're videos keep my spirits up and I'm looking for a job doing roofing labor and construction labor because I love working with my hands with all my love God bless everyone amen thank you Jesus and Almighty God for everything you do for us thank you amen ❤️🙏❤️❤️🙏🙏❤️
Awesome build and hard work for sure.....don't let that open stairwell sneak up on one of ya'll.
Leon smiling cracks me up! What a character! Ellie is adorable around all her animals. All boys🥰Leon Jr is adorable, Josh you better watch out if he’s anything like his daddy 😂. You two have been working your bottoms off and it’s beginning to look great. I love how you put each other’s safety first!
Love the half hour video, and seeing Trent , Allie, and Leo stopping by was an extra bonus. You guys have come a long way from that first video, Finally your hard work is looking great.
LEON! Such a beautiful smile! He’s a happy daddy.
Awww, Millie laying down with her babies!!😍
Surprisingly Josh looks so young in this episode. :) Erin is getting it done. Thank you and have a great week.
Erin, NO way that you can't claim Ellie is your daughter. She is simply a MINNIE ME of you. What a sweetheart she is. Bottle that smile of hers and it could cure most anything today ❤❤
I got to admit that my heart skipped a beat when that last LVL slipped towards Erin. Guys, that should be a wake-up warning about looking for a little help. There's NO project worth anyone getting hurt, I don't care what anyone says😢😢.
Erin, your strength isn't waining one little bit. You just don't give yourself enough credit, but your fans/viewers will take care of that😊😊. You both be careful and again, you guys are simply doing a wonderful job. Too bad I don't live closer because I'd love to give a hand. Take care of each other, Ron from Ohio
Have y’all ever done an origin story? Life before off grid. How y’all met, etc.
OMG! LEON JUNIOR! He is amazing!
❤ Great work on house project. Heavy going you both mastered it. So good to see cafe and candle merch doing well. So lovely to see Trent and Allie with little man Leo visiting ... the other channel i love watching.
I worked my way through college as a professional framer, and we set all of our beams by hand. It was too expensive to hire cranes at that time (now cranes are cheaper and more common). There were many times when I put a beam that weighed more than me on my shoulder and walked up a ladder to set it. Sometimes, the beams were so heavy that other carpenters would use 2" x 4" studs to help me lift the beam when I set it. So, I keenly understand your trepidation at setting the laminate beams so high up. You guys are so impressive in so many ways. Really, you are amazing. I am glad every time I see you succeed after working so very hard. Your videos are my favorite of all the real-life videos on UA-cam.
Nice to see Trent and Allie! Leon's smile cracks me up all the time. Love it!! 😂
That last shot of Millie with her babies is so heartwarming!
A very beautiful herd of sheep and lambs! WOW!!
Its great seeing the addition comeing every so close to being whether proof. Plus it was real nice seeing Trent, Allie and Leo at the Cafe. TAKE CARE and STAY WELL
Great work on the house, y’all be safe, don’t over do it. Enjoyed seeing the other couple, Trent and Alley visiting.
Leon is very photogenic. He has a beautiful smile! Stay safe on your building and hoping you are able to get it done at your own pace and ability🇨🇦
It was great seeing Trent, Allie and Leo another one of my favorite people to watch build their home in Park City, UT. The Helix Luxe is what I sleep on and every morning I feel fantastic after a restful night. Beautiful mural on the Coffee/Cafe.
Love this kind of video. Building, farming, coffee, candles and friendship. Keep rocking guys!
Yes, Please get help!!!! We've been watching you long enough to know you can do it. Now we want to continue seeing you keep doing it with help and safety. Great video!!!
Y'all are killing it on the house build, but you are right about the older you get. The less risk you want to take!! You don't have the strength or recovery time like when you are young!! So be careful and stay safe! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love that you guys hook up every now and then to check in on the progress your making.🤩
Amazing to see Trent & Ally and little Leon. ❤
Omg how adorable are those babies! So much fun on the farm especially for your daughter she’s loving it!👍❤️😂
That moment when the beam slipped could have been really really bad, I know both of you are tough as nails but there comes a time when the personal cost is not worth the risk. Like you talked about take the safer route and get a little help. The very best to all of you.😎
I held my breath almost every second of this video!😮 I have watched you and your family ever since you were felling trees. Your videos are beautiful!!! Careful please😮
Great to see the band back together again ... great progress. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Josh and Erin
Don't forget fire escapes for the bedrooms windows (rope ladders) being that the stairs are located in one corner not centered on 2-3 floor.
Also fire extinguishers throughout the house Rated A, B, C, D.
Been watching from the beginning, since the fifth wheel days. Still look forward to your weekly videos. It's amazing how time flys, but you two have almost got the house done, hopefully a roof before winter....if not dried in.
(I think they are working towards full completion certification in that state).
Congratulations on all the healthy lambs you have all been blessed with, and to be honest when you put that last beam up my heart was in my mouths and if that was me my heart would have been somewhere else as it looked terrifying.
please please please get others in to help or do the rest the kids needs their parents hugssssss
OMG ... Erin's a complete BOSS how she held it together at the 10:30 mark when that bean shifted ... I nearly pooped just watching it!!
What a treat to see my two favorite UA-camrs together. Trent and Allie are all the way across the country . House build is coming along . Can’t wait to see the roof on so you can move inside to work.
Incredible people doing great things,please don’t be to humble to get some help,we all want you well with no injuries!
Ellie is the perfect little vet for her animals, she is totally perfect❤
Love seeing the 2 families get together. My 2 favorite UA-cam Channels.
