    FAQs/Why would they do that?! Answers
    We are so glad you are here! Welcome to our channel!
    1. We are in Oklahoma near the Arkansas border.
    2. We do this on a volunteer basis.
    3. Kim aka Mom is retired. Jennifer owns her own business as a massage therapist.
    4. We film multiple locations in one day since we can’t go out all the time given Jen’s full time job. You may not see all the locations we filmed that day in one video.
    5. You may see other people in our videos at times including Granny aka Sue (mom’s mom), Jeff (Kim’s husband and Jennifer’s dad), or Jessica (Jennifer’s little sister) and Lucy (our beautiful, amazing, wonderful dog).
    6. Many wonder why we put stuff down culverts. A few reasons: it provides help for wildlife, we like to and it would have gone downstream anyway. If it blocks another culvert then we will take care of that too but most of the locations we visit are in incredibly rural areas where there won’t be another culvert for miles.
    7. We care about wildlife and never want to cause harm to them. The only reason we will clear a beaver damn is if it is threatening land or roads that can not be accessed any other way. It may not be the road directly within sight but a farm road close by.
    8. We appreciate advice in the comments. We understand that we will receive constructive criticism in the comments. What we won’t allow is the calling of names, derogatory terms, or just plain calling us stupid or idiots. We are all adults here and the internet is already a largely negative place as it is, let’s not add to it. We are people doing our best to help our neighborhood and planet by picking up trash and clearing culverts. Why do we deserve hate for that?
    9. You may not agree with or like the way we did something but that doesn’t mean we did it wrong. There is a right/wrong way to dismantle a bomb. Clearing culverts is up for interpretation to the one doing the work.
    10. We hope that you enjoy our videos and will keep coming back for more! Any other questions you have feel free to ask in the comments.

    Kim and Jennifer, side by side,
    In Oklahoma's fields, they take great pride.
    With sleeves rolled up, they face the day,
    Clearing culverts, come what may.
    The sun beats down on the red earth land,
    But together they work, hand in hand.
    The blocked culverts, once full of debris,
    They clear with vigor, they set them free.
    The water flows, the fields rejoice,
    Thanks to Kim and Jennifer's choice.
    To tend the land, to do what's right,
    In Oklahoma's fields, from morning light.
    So here's to the duo, strong and brave,
    Against the storm, they stand and save.
    For every culvert cleared, a victory,
    In the heartland's fields, they make history.

    At the location where the street signs were in one culvert, there was lots of what looked like roofing shingles. A long with all the refuse, it makes me think this could be debris from a tornado or very high winds.

    I don't know if anyone else told you? But at 39:50 your camera looks like it gets nudged. I was wondering if it may have been a snake because you can't hear any critter foot steps... Any way. Found you a couple weeks ago and absolutely love watching. Thanks for all you do and for sharing.❤

    I did wonder why so much brush in the culverts and when i had seen 2 road signs assumed debris from tornado's.
    Plodding away and clearing culverts is so much needed before and after storms.

They do this all the time. It's frustrating. I clean it once a month if it really irritates me twice a month.

    • @sherring808
      @sherring808 8 місяців тому

      Random shingles and other trash can be blown from many miles away. E.G. the tornado that hit Seminole and Holdenville this spring blew debris all the way to Tulsa. People in Tulsa found items with addresses there. From people whose homes were destroyed in said tornado. My comment was not directed toward the video, rather another comment. I'm always picking up trash but to assume all of it is from lazy people dropping it is wrong imho.
