Ivar is looking like a happy young man now. He is learning so much from you parents.👍❤️😃❤️❤️❤️
Always appreciate your updates. Life through the lens of your family is a wonderful gift that you share with such beauty ❤
Beautuful post as always.Thank you Ivar, Tova & Matthias. You can't imagine how deeply therapeutic watching your meaningful & sustainable lives mean to me. ❤Ivar's cute talk is like music to my ears.May the Almighty bless you all abundantly.😊😊
Hello beautiful family, little one is getting so big ❤😢 and already an expert like mom and dad , the true way of living, my great-grandchildren are the same age, time goes by quickly, it has
been a pleasure watching you and your family grow 👍❤️ greetings from Washington DC.
Wonderful that you now have spring weather, the chickens & sheep are happy & you’re all feeling better. Ivar is so smart & growing up fast. 🤗🇨🇦
When does Ivar get a sister ?
Matthias, You could give the chickens more protection by making extra hidingplaces in the field and put brenches or something in the ground with old cd's on top. Preditor birds will not land when they feel like someone is watching them (cd's shine/blink in the sun) and the less open a field is the less they will land in the field. They will only land when they are surtain that they can fly up again. They will not risk theire own life for a little bite ;) I've made little wooden tents in the past from pallets. The chickens love them. Especially when I put sand under it. They all would squeeze is to take a dustbath :P
A Goose could also help I heard
@@vikingninja5033 goose make a lot of noise and maybe it will help with big birds. I don't know. I've heard a few goats help better. Especialy a buck.
Your son’s social skills and language ability for his age are / is phenomenal 👍🏻
It’s incredible! Ivar’s been like that since infancy! Wise beyond his years!!
@@wrinklesandsprinkles that's the value of having parents who take you with them in life and talk a lot with him. They also let him do somekind of grownup things, which gives him the opportunity to learn the language actively. I also think the peace and quietness in theire life creates a good atmosfhere for Ivar to grow a healty, understanding mind
Nice vlog, thank you. Tack så mycket.
Do you speak Swedish?
Ivar has been learning from his parents since the day he was born, and it’s been wonderful to watch. He has been free to explore and learn to his heart’s content. Such a wonderful way to grow up!
We love to watch your channel and see all of the lovely things your family does. Your lifestyle is very busy but very fruitful. Such wonderful parents. 🙂
Perfect evening viewing... thankyou!🙂❤️
What beautiful chicken farming!
How cool it's to see the grass all green now. Thank you very much for this video 🥰 👏
Yes, my thoughts exactly given my penchant for chickens.... they and it all looks so healthy.... I read honest pasturing can cut your bird feed bill by half and that is true imo - spring rolls around and this flock is GONE away scratching and sunning, energizing 😊🌞💖
All the best family, home, animals, viewers 💖
Aah, that flower looks like what I know as colts foot. Good medicine❤️🙏🏼🇺🇸
correct
Gratitude for this lovely spring video dear friends. I'm so glad that the chicken coop wheels remained steady and were able to change the location. Although you guys say you're tired, the three of you looked radiant. Ivar has grown more and more and I loved how he is helping you guys in the cabin building! Lots of hugs to you guys 💙🙏
Huflattich, so heißen die gelben Blumen auf Deutsch, ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil für einen sehr guten Hustentee. Er löst den Schleim. Wir mischen ihn mit Spitzwegerich, Breitwegerich, frischen jungen Himbeerblaettern und Brombeerblaettern. Man kann auch noch frischen Austrieb der Fichten hinzugeben, aber nicht zu viel, sonst wird er bitter. Unsere Kinder und Enkelkinder haben ihn mit Honig gesüßt immer gerne getrunken. Viel Erfolg! Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland. Bin 82 Jahre und liebe Eure Videos.
My favorite online family. All the very best for you 3, much respect 🤝.
Watching those chickens scratching around warms my heart. My daughter in northern Ontario Canada has chickens for the first time.
Mil gracias x esta experiencia de vida que compartis con nosotros. Os deseo lo mejor ❤
Beautiful movie. As always. Ivar is smiling, grass is growing, snow melting. Life is beautiful. ❤
What a magnificent transformation into the season of Spring....❤
I dont know what Ivar is saying while helping with the building but he seems to be very curious and asking hid Daddy many questions. His curiosity will stand him in good stead for a knowledgeable life. He's such a bright spark, a delightful young man.
I was thinking 'wood block in, fingers out!' lol
Your son is a very smart kid bless him.Very cute and sweet ❤
Nice to see you all again!!! ...especially surrounded by green 🌱🌿
So great to see you guys, despite the healing crisis, you all look very well and happy :) big hugs from Québec xxx
I feel your happiness with the chickens. Nothing is better than birds and animals living the best life. Can’t wait till the next video ❤
Hi Mathias,Tova and Ivar, what a wonderful video. We enjoy all of your post. Mathias Ivar is going to be and is on his way to being a great help on your homestead. You are so good with teaching him skills and are very patience.Tova, here in Georgia USA it's already beginning to be summer, it's May 29th right now I am hoping you are having spring and warmer temperatures so you can begin your planting.We are sooooo glad the chicken wagon made it to the village,was a little nervous for you two. The chickens look very happy and healthy.Just hoping no birds of prey are bother some. The sheep we know are very happy with their new haircuts. That is hard work. Glad you three are feeling better. You work so hard in taking care of everything on your homestead(farm) and also making videos and editing. Thank you for your hard work and can't wait till the next video. Take care of yourselves, love from your loyal fan's. PS. Your Saturday nights are more exciting than ours, we're jealous 😂😂❤❤❤
Love this video and am so excited that the chicken tractor is working. I hope that you are feeling better. I can’t wait to see what you plant in your garden.
I love this channel. Thank you for the wonderful content.
When it was not yet possible to store all meat in a freezer, another solution had to be devised to preserve meat. Of course, it can also be dried and smoked. But it might be worth storing the meat in fat, for example, because it will last, and it will be very tasty! This type of preservation is worth doing for goose, duck or pork, it can also be a chop, ribs, sides or shoulder. Place the salted meat in a casserole dish or baking dish, then pour enough fat over the neck to cover the meat. Bake at a low temperature for 70-90 minutes. Once the meat has cooled, pour it all together with the fat into mason jars and keep it tightly closed in a cool place, in the pantry, cellar, refrigerator so it will last for up to a year.
Smoked goods can be preserved by rolling them in clean wood ash. Acacia is the best for this purpose, because this wood has the smallest particle size, so it creates a uniform coating on the outer surface of the smoked product. The salami is simply turned and rubbed with the natural substance, thus protecting the salami against harmful bacteria. The huge advantage of this method is that the ash does not prevent the white noble mold from creating a fine coating on the casing or artificial casing covering the salami, but thanks to the method, the shelf life increases significantly. The texture of salamis treated in this way is also completely different than if they were not treated with ash: the salami remains juicy even after long-term storage and dries out less. According to experts, sausage or salami treated with wood ash can be stored for up to 8-10 months. It is recommended to gently rub off the combustion product with a wet cloth before consumption, although this is not absolutely necessary if you are eating delicacy stuffed into an artificial casing.
Spring has arrived in Northern Sweden! Enjoy the green and sunshine and may the health crisis be only temporary. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from the Rocky Mountains.
Thank you for making us even feel beautiful with this video ❤
I’m Canadian, but my fathers mother and father were born in Sweden. Dad lived to be 107.
Wow that's Impressive.
It truly is glorious to see the chickens scratching up the landscape. 🙂 It does me good to see your lovely smiles. ❤
I'm curious about your period of bad health: fever, fatigue and coughing. I have been experiencing these symptoms on and off for the past 6 weeks too, I don't remember feeling this poorly for this long. We have a similar lifestyle and climate than you do in the spring here in Alaska. I am hoping it is not due to the previous pandemic, spike protein effect, etc. Always a pleasure and a privilege to witness a part of your daily life!
I am of the mindset that the body is wise and self healing and self regenerating, and that mostly, one should not get in the way of the healing process that sometimes can be uncomfortable. This is one of my favourite topics and I could talk a lot about it, unfortunately that could jeopardize this channel, such a pity.

Eat more eggs, with a dash of real salt on them.
17 min in, and you sang. It was very good, brought a smile to my face.
I love supporting this channel. It gives me something to look forward to. 🥦🙂🌼🌺
amazed to see how happy you are, Mathias, when your chickens are happy!😊
You are definitely mastering the art of building Mathias. I love Ivar's little involvement.
Its such a thrill to see the chickens in a larger area...they look happy. Congratulations in your success with them this far.
The green exploded everywhere in a matter of weeks!! How exciting!
Thank you so much for sharing your days with us! Best wishes from Kentucky, USA!🙏❤
I'm glad it all went well with moving the chicken coop and seeing the chickens happily scratching the grass. Your dream will come true. Thanks for sharing these beautiful moments with us.
Beautiful family and I sleays look forward to seeing what you are doing, enjoying and experiencing! I wish everyone could enjoy life like this! It is a beautiful life! Love to you all!❤
Hello and thank you for your video. Your family is lovely, and your land as well. Thank you from Coronado CA USA
Another lovely moment in the life of an amazing family in the north of Sverige. Tack.
When you mentioned the rooster was not crowing it reminded me of George Orwell's "Animal Farm," the disappearance of the rooster Major disrupts the farm's traditional way of life. Major's nightly crowing signaled the start of the day, and his absence creates a sense of uncertainty and unease.
I’ve just returned to your channel after a couple years and how amazing to see how much gorgeous Ivar has grown! So many wonderful updates and that smiling sense of accomplishment and happiness on Mathias’ face after transporting the chickens and seeing them feed free range was beautiful to see. I was smiling right there with you 😊
Sending love from Australia
☀️💛🌼
Light and grass, bees and birdies and klein hoefblad (gula blommorna). Good times :)
I love your videos so much. It seems like you are family to me. Thank you for sharing your life with all of us, brings great peace.
Love your content keep it up.❤ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ivar is a toddler now. Gosh, they grow so fast. I was watching you guys well before he was born.
So glad it works with the chiken👍👍🌼🌼🌼❤️🙋♀️🇩🇪
Thank you for filming your amazing lives.
The yellow flower looks similar to our dandy lion a very good plant all of it can be eaten at the right time or the root makes a good tea, the roots build soil going down six feet two meters. But those who like to mow grass hate it for a pitch
we love dandelions, their roots is good for compacted soil and the flowers is food for bees. But this flower was tussilago, also good for bees when they wake up in spring.
@@Talasbuan the commenters are saying Coltsfoot
Greeting Talasbuan Family, it is a pleasure
to watch your videos on your off grid life
and the work that is involved. You are
doing a fantastic job, even though it is
not easy.little Ivar is growing up and so
adorable. God's blessings over your
family always.
I love your videos. So peaceful. Thank you for sharing your beautiful farm and family .
Tova, you look so pretty in the hat end of video. Always so pretty. Fascinating watching always and so glad the chicken wagon wheels stayed on! The chickens seem back to routine in their new surroundings.
Hello! Talasbuan family! Always good to see you, your home and farming progress. Happy to know the chicken wagon has worked out for you. So enjoy watching Ivar learning the trades; he is growing so fast! You are a beautiful family. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes from the American mid-west! :) ❤🙏🏼
I'm a Venezuelan city boy, a lot of stuff happening in my country... and this sweeden man just got me stressing over the wheels of a chicken coop haha, great content. Greetings from the other side of the world
Everything turned out wonderful 👏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽💜👨🌾👩🌾
The chickens are so happy now and Ivar is becomming such a nice little man. I loved you three with your hats on at the end of the video. Tovas hairs are so long and beautiful now again. 🙂
DANKE für dieses wunderschöne Video 💝... Alles Liebe für euch herzliche Grüße aus Franken 💖💝💖💝🙏🏻💖💝💖💝🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
Hi Mathias, Tova and Ivar! Always a good day when a new video pops up from you.
Two questions - what was the seemingly big bird wandering in the field, and what were those yellow flowers Ivar and Tova were picking?
Much love and blessings from Eastern Ontario, Canada. ❤🤍❤
Yes, what is the big bird in the field?
@@user-qw1gu9zu4f I think it's a Crane.
It is a crane, a very big bird. Search for "crane bird" to find info. It is beautiful and the sound they make gives us spring feelings like nothing else.
The yellow flowers are called tussilago in swedish, coltsfoot in english. It is one of the first flowers that appears in the spring.
@@Talasbuan Thank you! My husband thought it was a crane but I have never seen one just out walking before, lol
So, your Tussilago must be like our Dandelions where we live :)
On Jonna Jinton's YT channel from Northern Sweden she has a recent video short where she is making sounds across a frozen lake that the unseen cranes respond to. Very ethereal and lovely.
Beautiful life.
Love that you love those animals so hard.
That is one gorgeous dog and son you have there.
Bless you ❤ ❤ ❤
So happy to see your smiling face Matthias success with the chickens
Such a genuine open family sharing your lives with us thank you ❤
Wheel chucks, like they use for airplanes. I grew up (and still live) in an area that is very hilly. I actually feel ill in my gut when it is flat. We traveled through a flat area and I couldn't wait to be through it!
The woman who owns the barn I work at bought more ducklings. She has she has to stop doing that when she is stressed. I told I don't know! I like it for stress release!
I feel a new family addition may be in the near future. Love your content. Happy Spring
How fantastic to see you again,we do miss you.But your videos are definitely worth the wait without a doubt.All three of you do look so healthy and happy disspite the struggle over the winter months being so so cold.My goodness your such a good looking family...l wounder if maybe another baby may be on its way! Sending much love ❤
Love watching you all. Hard work but very rewarding.
Your hair is so pretty Tovar , you look good with any lenght of hair but I think your long hair are the most beautiful 👍
It's really beautiful there when everything starts greening up again. I'm glad things are going so well for you, as far as the rams and chickens. I remember when you just started and only had a few of each.
For the chickens you need some geese in with the flock. The size of the geese usually keeps away predator birds. Just an idea
There are so many considerations you must make to ensure the well-being of all your chickens! I admire your steadfastness to make it work! Take care and I hope spring does arrive soon!
I’m so happy and excited that the chicken experiment is a success! I’ll bet the eggs are amazing!
I have to say , you guys make the best looking food , from the meat to the cheese etc 👍 that’s truly how our family’s lived decades and decades ago , and it’s very healthy …. Now you see children all consumed with electronics 😢
I have been missing your videos! Blessings to you and your family!
Happy to see you continue to build, and showing Ivar how it's done 🙂
Wow❤ congrats for the chicken wagon! That's a big accomplishment!
So nice to see the green grass after all the white of snow. Hope everything in your lives improves soon.
Great Videos! Away from the political mess in the world!
That is a well deserved spring.
Just love your peaceful videos, as a knitter and looking at all this wool ,,, I am sure that many farms keeping the wool to make skeins would love to go at your place and shave them to keep the wool. ♥️ such beautiful sheep 🐑
Thank you for the candid / open hearted insight into your lives. I like it very much 😘beautiful images.
Wish you a spring witch give you new energy 😂
❤
Bravo Tova and Mathias! Bravo! 👏👏👏 Seeing how happy you are with the success of your chicken wagon brought tears to my eyes! I am curious to know if you would consider doing a Live Stream some time? So many fans with so many questions, and it would be such a pleasure to say hello! Much love from Teri in Michigan🤟🙏💞
What time of the day would you suggest such a livestream would take place?
@@TalasbuanI would love one also I believe your about 6-8 hours ahead of some of the U.S SO maybe mid afternoon your time love seeing your family 💞
Love your videos ❤️🐈⬛🐶
In April in Ontario Canada that seems to have been here as well ..lots of sinus and cough and also really tired...took over 2 weeks to heal.....but everything is nice and green here as well ...cold then came fast and furious hot and green
Glad to hear that the chicken wagon is working. Best wishes to you and your families. Thanks for posting and sharing.

💥💥👉🏻chickens don't like to be moving around. They need to stay at one place only.
Chickens need cover from hawks. I will put a small wagon out in the flexi net so they have a second cover. I have used a tent for cover too because it is Mobil
Good afternoon.
It's good to see you.
Big like guys, I wish you a wonderful summer 😊
Thank you again for sharing! The chickens are Beautiful!
Yes, that is a beautiful flock of chickens.
