If our world had more people like you how grand it would be, Great video!
That's thousand year rule of our lord Jesus
Gardening together vs. Working on diesels together. Lol! True love! ❤😂🔧
I am so proud of you two. Keep on, keeping on! Homesteading and homeschooling is the way to go.
Love learning from you all! Bella's knowledge on the animals, your growth with the gardening/ animals. Nutrition is everything. Thank you for this video.
When my daughter was growing up she taught herself so many things. She taught herself how to draw - like really good drawing. She taught herself crocheting and knitting (she’s got some beautiful clothing pieces as a result). She also taught herself jewelry making (well, I did pay for one jewelry making class that was several sessions, but she took things from there). For all these skills, she would find information on the internet and learn from that.
A horse? Riding horse would be amazing skill for kids! People used to hunt from horse back. Always alternative to get somehere when they make gas unavailable like today
Your answer to the parenting question was perfect, even when you’re not ;)
Love this! Thanks for all of the ideas and input.
Would love video about parenting the middle age and older kids.
With your own produce you are providing the absolute best for your family. Along with the organic food you source outside you are giving your children the best health. Totally worth it. I love how every family member has such individual strengths and interests too. Your homeschooling method is the perfect way of doing it, creating a love of life-long learning. Such a great video with such good advice! A beautiful family.
You guys are amazing. Godly parents, an example to us all.
Great Q&A! Thank you!
Hi...your channel has become an addiction to me❤
I loved seeing Bella give the quick and precise order of the animals!! I have been a longtime sub and I remembered all animals except the turkeys. Such a fun video. You are an amazing couple. Keep up the great work ❤❤. Laura Chambers
Hooray Julie!!! 🙌🤜👏"Joe and me," and then "Joe and I." It drives this old teacher crazy when "influencers," who teach their children, use I incorrectly! Grammar nerd! 😂
While he is dying😂😂😂
Please make a video on your diesel making from oil ( i think that how you put it) and all the in and outs of it .. May the Lord bless you and your family ..
Julie, make to us promise to make a video about you working on diesel 😂😂
Yay Bella ! What would Mom and Pop do without you. Keep them straight. 😂
Love the video! Love your channel!
I would like to hear from you more about your dogs, how train them, puppies and advise and getting gurdian dogs for homesteading.
Hey can you do an update vid/short on how you’re keeping hs records? Just a suggestion 😁
I envy you for having access to such good food (I know it’s a tremendous amount of work) and I laud you for raising your animals so humanely. I have to rely on food labels that say organic and humanely raised and I always hope those labels are truthful. But one thing I will not do as a follower of Christ is buy animal products from factory farms because they are torture chambers. It breaks my heart to know that so many animals who nourish us are treated so badly.
It sounds like you’re doing a great job 💗
❤
29:57 what about cardboard and cutting off some of the leaves for a better crop.
And God brought your Vet into your lives who is another great resource for you!👍👍
Love this video
Great Q&A... I love how you explained everything.
you both are amazing and cute at the same time 😍
I agree! They also make super cute kids!
Love you guys and your videos. Very interesting vlogs you make and your ways of living out on the homestead
Amazing family. Very informative video, I totally agree about the schooling, better to do and learn than read and learn x
Rinky Dink projects. That is what we call a project where you re-use things you already have. It's fun and creative and satisfying to do that.
That’s a good name for it! 😆
I hope you find land that meets your needs and can make homesteading even more successful! Life skills are important for kids to learn so now when their adults they’re not helpless! I taught my daughter basic cooking skills when she was little and now that she’s 13 she can make meals for herself and can wash her clothes. I love all your beautiful siding on the house!
I’m glad someone asked the question about money. I’ve always wondered myself would it really be cheaper to have your own chickens and cows or buy at the store. Sure it’s more work and better quality for sure when you do it properly yourself.
Great conversation. You were talking about Starlink ? No idea how to hook up when you are in a remote location. And we are definitely like minded 🙂 I love Bella in the middle of the video, correcting all uncertainties ! She definitely rocks, and I am a big fan of hers ! .And yes, what about having a horse ?
You two are too fun. 😂
The expo was fantastic! Glad we got to spend time together!
Me too!!!
Julie, I love the way you try to help you husband speak correct English. It makes me cringe to listen to people speak, especially some UA-camrs. My grandsons gave me the nickname of “grammar police”. Keep it up because you are teaching your children because they are listening to you. ❤
I hate when they say boyez and girlez for boys and girls! No one says may I use the boyez room! Also me and him! My son-in-law had to learn English as a small boy and knows all of the rules! The other person is first and you are always second! Many home schooled kids are never taught the rules! He was sent to a Catholic school and the nuns did an excellent job! His grammar is perfect! I hear my sweet little teacher repeating the rules as we were at the chalk board diagramming sentences! I scream at news people when their grammar is wrong! It used to be what comes out of your mouth when you speak is evidence of what kind of education you had! Y'all makes me cringe! They are proud of speaking like a hick?
@@daveshoemaker7137 May I point out I don’t like it when people call children kids. A kid is a baby goat. I use the word y’all and it is in the dictionary. It is a third person plural word.
@@karenwest2670 I agree! Sorry to offend you! ( do love baby goats too! Y'all!
@@daveshoemaker7137 I’m not offended. Have a good day.
If you can and have the space……. Plant your crops with the max spacing, they’ll fight less for water. Got that tip from david the good, and the book water wise gardening by Steve Solomon. Great recourses for gardening in tougher circumstances
Wow! 3 acres I'm amazed at what you are doing on that small amount. We have 20 acres and definitely aren't utilizing them that well yet. (We are at 1.5 years here now) This is the 2nd summer we've had a neighbor hay the 3 hay fields we have.
Goats. I relate to your opinion on them. We had them when I was growing up. I think my parents liked them better then I did, but I got so tired of chasing them back in whenever they got out. They constantly escaped out 5 ft fence.
I can sew but I don't sew clothes anymore. I also thrift most of our clothes.
My aunt owns a place in the ozarks and she loves it
It’s a great part of the country!
New here...love the content😂
Welcome!
I was homeschooled year-round and want to continue into my generation! Just wrote a blog post about academic calendars, actually.
Nice!
👍👍👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️♥️
What did you say your husband did for work? He said his client?
What does Jason do for work?
He’s a financial advisor
Teach us the rule..me or I?
Yes please! I assumed that “Joe and I” was the correct grammar.
I was taught (here in Australia) that if it’s two people it’s - ‘Joe and I’ and if it is three or more it’s ok to say ‘me, Joe and Fred’ . Maybe I was taught incorrectly?
The other person or persons are more important and should always be first! There is no such thing as boyez or girlez! They are getting possessive nouns confused! Using 's for possession makes them think they have to pronounce it separately and they don't have to! Rules of grammar are not taught apparently in most home schooled homes. I ask my grandchildren and they know the rules of grammar and will correct themselves in the middle of a sentence! There is nothing like a good teacher correcting your grammar mid sentence!
Can you replenish money by selling some meat?
We sell live animals (kunekune pigs are our biggest seller) but haven’t sold meat.
If you’re looking into going with Elon Musk my daughter had to wait 2yrs to get hers hooked up in the country. Just wanted to let you know it takes quite awhile.
Are you talking about Starlink? It only took a couple of weeks for us to receive the equipment just this summer.
@@rosannasauereisen2827 IDK if that’s the name and it may have been when Elon first announced it but they immediately signed up since they live in the country and it took 2 years or a bit less.
That’s good to know!
