A day on our HOMESTEAD || Off-Grid
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- We are building our off-grid homestead in Tennessee with no electricity, water, or any other utility. These are the early days here. They're spent doing tasks that simply support the necessities of life and tackle projects to turn this raw land into our dream.

Before you set up for your livestock, do you know what animals are in the area that may be a problem?
We've got 4.2 acres in Dickson that we plan to do a homestead as well! I was up all night watching yalls video's! The best part is seeing the love yall have for each other!!
Fun video, thanks!
Look into renting a goat herd to take out the brush if there are some available in your area. The goat herders set up a portable electric fence to keep the goats where you want them.
Y are camper and the other building not close to gather
Noticed your bluetti set up - be careful when disconnecting your solar panels - if they are drawing current into the battery you can short them (the panels - not the battery) out - make sure you have them turned off or covered with dark blankets before disconnecting & zero current going into the unit
Good day Matt & Cass, we are Canadians in Mexico,enjoying your adventures , love your content,very cool, not as cool as Fonzie , . . . . . actually second place to fonz is amazing. 👍
Good morning to yous..cheers and hugz From The Yukon Territory and purrz from Bob-0-Lynx...😊❤😊
I can't remember your puppy's names or you kitty but anyway it's funny because the one dog's ear kept staying up the whole time Loved your video You guys are fun to watch and full of life thanks
I sure would like if you Both would add me to follow I just need one more to start live !
I liked this video 43 seconds after it posted..just sayin❤
Heck yes! hahah :)
Dear Matt please have that spot on your nose checked out. Need to wear a hat more out in the sun. Just an old grannies loving your videos and concerned.
The stream below you could be accessed by digging a shallow pond, lining it with rocks and installing a gas powered trash pump to lift water to your garden and pasture. Harbor Freight and Tractor Supply both have them at a reasonable price.
Watched the video where Matt built the shed deck, buuuuuuut there's a shed behind it, and Matt is using it for a work surface. You guys have the funnest changes of plans. 🤣Your updated TV cabinet is nice, and it for sure will stop collecting nick-nacks now. Sawmill baby!
Hahah :) The shed behind it is the new solar shed and that will be shown in all of its glory next week.... the platform Matt built will still be a shed but just a storage shed now, Lowes finally sent us the second box to the original shed lol. We just go with the flow around here because things are always changing! Matt makes a joke that he wants everything on wheels so we never have to make any permanent discussions lol
Another awesome video! It’s so cute how Stetson’s ear is always flipped over! ❤😂
His ears are in what we call the awkward phase haha. He has some control but they kind of do whatever they want lol
😇
When I heard Matt say Ope made me miss home lol most don’t say it in Tennessee.
mix of Winter Rye and Clover for wide areas.
You have been blessed to have a mild winter and the ability to keep moving forward. Bet you are chomping at the bit to get planting. Can’t wait to see the garden. Love ya and stay safe.
Starting our seeds this week and can't wait to get our fingers in the dirt! The mild winter has us feeling good :)
Hey Matt - what is your opinion of using a Silky Katanaboy saw instead of a chainsaw? I'd think more elbow grease, but less maintenance and PPE. Probably cuts just as fast. Just a thought.
I bought a food dehydrator. I make all our dog treats.. Their favorites are sweet potatoes and Pumpkins. I have to put high up because my golden retriever gets impatient and opens it and scarfs the treats down before they finish drying. I even dry the pumpkin seeds. I'm thinking my yard will have pumpkins sprouting lol.
I love all yell's videos. I wish I lived close by I would be buggin the piss out of yall wanting to help (for free) on the ranch. I would rather be in the woods then i would a three-bedroom home!!! I plan to move to east Tennessee after I retire from the force. Its only 3-4 months away.
I love you videos, but can't become a member,because in so poor that when i spend 1 dollar on something rather then food I miss a meal im handicap live on a fixed income im on 02 24/7 and ive got a pace maker and difimulater in my chest im about to lose my truck because im in a wheelchair now and will be stuck at home once i lose my truck but ive drope to 943.00 a month from anyway enough of my problems you guys are great, keep up what your doing itll work out i live in Nashville hope maybe to see you all sometime, bless you all.
My camper came new with a 24" solid TV/ monitor which was at the end of the jack knife sofa bed. I pulled it out and put a 36" pull out pivot mount similar to yours and it made it so much easier to see. I put one of the good Roku boxes on the back so we can stream from our 5G hotspot on our phone or the hotspot line in my pickup. So far we have not had a need for a Starlink.
I got a secret to that long dragon. Get your piece of plywood, cut you a not in it to where you can hook your strap to it, then fix you 2 holes that you can stick your chain. Through and wrap around the log and then leave your law on your plywood. Works slants down with the log on it, and then the strap will be above the ground. On those skids, and you can drag it with that strap, never hurt the strap. You keep the strap abovethat law. It will be something less even if you had a couple of 4 before pieces, about 2 foot long cut of slant on the front then tie your plywood Tom and then make it to where that it s***** down on the back too. When you put log on it and change it to the law plywood, you can. And pull it. Without turn up your strap just bank about it
Great viedo,heres to spring time🎉❤
We can feel the energy shifting it is a beautiful thing!
If yall ever decide you want to ride some trails and see more of Tennessee there's about 8000 acres of raw land in Hickman that we go riding all the time on. Free to go as well just no fires and of course keep it clean so we can enjoy it for years to come! As far as animals I would consider getting a donkey as one of your first. they will keep any predator's away!
Me and my girlfriend are literally about to travel the country again cause we lost ALL of the footage we had but we're moving to Vegas we can't take TN anymore it's honestly a retirement state
I'm late watching. A very nice video. Thanks for sharing❤
You need to give your puppy, better, chew toys it’ll help build his cartilage up for his ears stand up
I know you said you were putting your batteries for solar system in the metal building. Will you be insulating the building to keep the batteries warm in the winter and cool in the summer? The batteries should be kept at certain temperatures so they don’t freeze in winter and get too hot in summer.
Hey good afternoon or good morning hey how you feeling today hope your everything's looking good out there so I wish you'd be able to get into the cabin and then you'll be able to feel a lot better but you know I guess you guys are still working on that but you got the good work I'm proud of both of you keep up because you love each other and see how the animals❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I found your channel and have been watching since you started your homestead journey. I too have recently started my homestead journey in the Piney Woods of East Texas. The progress y’all have made is inspiring and I look forward to seeing how your homestead progresses. 👍🏻
Check on renting a skid steer and back hoe from home depot and do the work yourselves its cheaper than contractors
You will need to do a soil test to bring soil up to pH 7 I'm guessing lime just make sure you get white lime not pellet ..
Your gonna have haters,ignore them they are miserable people who hate anyone who does well
HOW OLD ARE YOU GUYS?
WHY NO KIDS?
NOW THATS AN ADVENTURE :)
Would you guys be willing to rent some space?
Great work guys good job for what you feed the dogs too keep up the good work.
Do you still have your orange kitty? I love the new pup
How is your legal stuff going with cabin
So much room for activities in the camper now 🤣
Plant clover and Timothy hay.
I didn't know y'all were so young
You can sale the logs get some cash for the logs !
You guys are the Cutest! Pups too!!
Hey why you guys not in the cabin?
Share below, I take full responsibility for the facts contained below. Ron Hale
The ranch is looking good
24th from Montana 👊🏻💪🏻🫣
Love your videos !!!
Sooner you get that tractor the more you will get done with all your projects. I put 5 grand down and 326 a month. It's a mahindra 1626. Front bucket , box blade bushhog backhoe, stump grinder ect
Your Welcome.
Awesome video
You guys need a SkyShield to go over that solar panel to protect it from damage (hail, debris,impacts, etc). On closer inspection, thar panel may have a protection grid built in!
Looking good guys!
Awesome!
The Runaway Ranch is running great! That four-wheeler is a work horse.
Thanks for providing all the good information about the Bluetti. I want to eventually get one of those but can't make up my mind on what size I would need.
I enjoyed the show.... Now it is time for me to transfer that energy into my motivation. Lol. I wish it was that easy. Best of luck to you on your continuing process.
EDIT* If you have coyotes a couple pet donkeys would be good. They are smart and fun as pets and hate coyotes. But they may be expensive - never owned one.
Dig it .
What grass is best for pasture can depend on where you are located. Find your local county extension office and ask them what would be the best pasture mix for your area.
Nice project in the camper to clear up space and organize. You guys are making great progress on your homestead Thanks for sharing it! Have a great week!
Kubota track loader is great for making new pasture. So many attachments ❤😊😊
The only cover crop I use is clover. Super simple to plant and maintain, low cost for seeds, and great for pollinators
Slow and steady wins the race… keep on keeping on ☮️
One little step at a time :)
You should plant clover and get some bee hives to harvest honey. Then you can make some mead!
Another Beautiful Bills Fan tc HoppyBob 🤠
❤
✌️❤️🍻
Fescue is the best grass for pasture and has a really good root system so your hillside won't wash away.
🤠🐄❤😊
Living the dream one day at a time. Enjoy the building the dream. At times it will seem like work but it will all be worth it in the long run.
Awesome video God Bless you and your family
Enjoyed watching
Just get a nice chain and put it around the log and pull it
