    It just occurred to me that you could fence off your driveway temporarily and let your sheep graze it. that is less mowing and more growing. All of the fencing is mostly done, only the ends would need to be fenced for a day or two a month.

    Your property is magnificent. You must have been elated to find it. Never knew grasshoppers were in north central Idaho. I once watched a chicken chase a grasshopper. The chicken finally won but it was a meal earned the hard way. 👍👍👍

    Mike and Liz, you two really come a long way in three years and you did get some from the Ranies however you two have put the sweat equity into this place from day one. Love both channels and I am really glad that your life is so much better now and a whole lot less stressful.

    Looking great! Honestly, I'd probably repurpose the 20ft container for something else and make a new woodshed out of 2x4s and steel roof sheets. I would also come up with a system for bringing wood indoors that lets you be as lazy as possible. I know you've got the barndominium upstairs so that's a unique set of challenges. I look forward to seeing what projects you guys come up with next. :)

    Well I subscribed 7 days ago and Today I find out you have been rolling for 3 Years. So I went back and had a look and the first video I watched I found out what happened to you, a prick of a thing to happen to you, hard lesson to learn, but I sure you will never be caught out again. I have been well entertained for the last week, you both look happy and it seems that what happened has not broken your spirit. thanks I am enjoying your show.

    Good Day Liz and Mike! Did you do a video of the lower pasture with the ram and goat? I was curious to see that terrain and how you got around the water. Your free range chicken pen is a great place to build a simple on the ground compost pile of bedding from the goats, sheep & chickens. Any left over or buggy veggies are a big bonus. You pile it up and the chickens will have a blast scratching through it. It will get mixed as often as you pile it up. And when it's ready to go in the garden, there won't be any grain left 😊

  • @andrewpinson1268

    This represents a great deal of hard work and sweat. If you ever do have down days, think of all the people throughout the country that dream of living off grid like you guys are doing. Continue showing everyone that it can be done.

    Best wood storage is an open sided shed. We made ours big enough to hold 10 cord. Made the floor out of pallets and walls were 1x6 boards gapped 4” apart. Slopped metal roof. Wood dried in one summer and we could rotate the wood as we brought in green. 😊

    put some bright lights in the chicken house on a timer and they will give more eggs in the winter as they think it is summer. Proper fans in that shipping container and you could turn it into a drying kailan for your lumber

    moisture control in shipping containers is better if you use calcium collide. You need two buckets the bottom bucket needs a 1/4 pipe to be at the side base then seal the pipe so it will not leak. the upper bucket will have whole drilled into the 4 inch center of the bucket. in the center you place a wire mesh just wider than the wholes about 4 inches. The fill the outer side of the wire small mesh with calcium collide to the top of the bucket. this will collect the moisture into the center. then into the bottom bucket and then out the tube. The tube is place to come out the bottom corner of the fixed door. then it will drain into the pit next to the container. it comes out as salt brine so be careful. This will work best with cut split wood from last year. Green wood would need more bucket systems. I've use this in 20 foot to keep moisture out of the air with great success. no power needed. Good luck

    Just a thought, you don’t seem to grow potatoes or is there not enough space. Or perhaps you don’t eat them? You could feed left overs to the sheep & goats, but only cooked as raw ones contains toxins that are harmful to your livestock, as are the leaves & stems; to humans as well. Rob from Cardiff, UK
