Our Piece of Paradise - HOMESTEAD TOUR 2022
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 лип 2022
- Clay Hayes shows you around his families homestead where they've lived since 2010. We like to be as self reliant as we can and that means producing most of our own food. We hunt, fish, forage, and grow a large garden on our little homestead. We have a little farm house on 20 acres in North Idaho. On this homestead tour we'll walk you around the land and see how things have changed over the years. We'll look at our little farm house, do an organic garden tour, and check out the 3D archery course, woodlot, and pastures. We'll talk about some of the wildlife habitat improvements that we've done. If you're into homesteading, self reliance, gardening, or just being left alone, then you're bound to enjoy this one.
Liz will do a garden tour over on her channel and talk about the garden irrigation system, low tunnel hoop house, growing sweet potatoes in cold climates, lasagna gardening, starting seeds, and organic gardening in general.
Be sure to check out Liz's channel for more gardening and food preservation videos! / @lizhayes7474

Clay, I just finished your season of Alone. I was rooting for you from the very beginning. Man, I was so happy when you took the win! Your skill, resilience, and devotion to your family are a huge inspiration to me.
NO BS I knew he was going to Win from the beginning! I'm upset that his Bud BENJI had to leave this Season of Alone. I was rooting for BENJI.
Many thanks
No hate to Biko but he was so much less competent then Clay that I was rooting so hard for Clay once it was top two. Clay deserved it.
My wife and I were standing up screaming for him. I had tears in my eyes lol. Dude is everything we are losing in today's society..
Hello this is Vamshi from india and I have done my graduation in agriculture bsc so im looking for agriculture farm worker job
And here I sit in my office, using these videos as my mental escape from these walls. Dreaming of this life and how to get there....
My goodness, easy to see why you won your season! All your planning, all your efforts are a huge boost to the environment, wildlife and your family. Wonderful work!
What an awesome place! You folks have a lot to be proud of. I love the time, effort, & thought you have put into wildlife habitat. Thank you for sharing!
This really does look like paradise! I am so incredibly jealous! I am also happy for you and your family! Thank you for sharing your life and achievements with us.
This is an excellent example of working with the land, not against it! The result: a habitat that can be enjoyed and thrived upon by all inhabitants!
Thanks Kevin
Just now finished your season! I have to be honest at first I was going for Biko and just few episodes in I called that you had it in the bag and was cheering for you. I related a lot with your love and passion for your family. I don’t usually ever get left in more than a few tears from something but as a young father of 2 at only 23 years old who also has been with my partner since I was 17 after being best friends for years, it really hit home for me and filled me with a lot of emotions and inspiration.
Congratulations 🎉 happy you post content I’ll be subscribing!
Just finished your season. I know your boys were super proud. You a real one. You not only told your boys how to be resilient, you showed it. That’s called living your creed.
Just finished watching your season of Alone and was impressed from the beginning with your level-headedness and situational awareness. I was so afraid that that fisher showing up would be the last straw for you! Thanks for showing us around your lovely home!
My daughters and I just finished watching you on Alone and we enjoyed your awesome skills and love for your family tremendously. Your home and gardens are beautiful. May the Lord bless you and your family! Blessings from northern california.
Thank you so much for allowing us in. I just finished watching you win Alone, and let me tell you how impressed I was. Not only are you very capable but humble as well. I dont know how many come in the beginning talking about how they will kill it cause they have a warriors heart and then dont make it 30 days. Loved the poems as well. Without even talking about prize money you are a rich man. I could tell how much you love your family and I applaud you for living life right. Prayers to you on all future endeavors.
Thanks for the tour Clay. Your boys have a great place to hang around. I would of loved to of been raised on a place like that.
You should use a wool ground cloth or bird netting for the garden it helps more to keep the weeds out
Clay, I just finished watching the Alone season you were on. Watched it while traveling on vacation with my family. It made my vacation with my wife and daughter so much better. Really inspired by your journey, skills, stories you shared, and what you did for your family. Thank you for letting us in on all of that. Much love from Dayton, Ohio.
That is awesome!
Really enjoyed the tour! What a way to grow up as a kid! Thank you!
Thanks Donna
Man the amount of knowledge you have is inspiring. Hope to be able to be this type of guy for my children someday!
I had never heard of Alone, but your season came out on Netflix and I'm hooked now. You are a true renaissance man, seems like you can do it all!! Reminds me of my Dad and how I grew up!
lovely homestead and lands.. blessings to you and your family!
Thanks for the tour and sharing your life with us
Clay - just finished your season of alone. You are a huge inspiration to my wife and myself.
Thanks Austin
@@clayhayeshunter THANK YOU - hope to learn much more from your videos. Appreciate you for sharing this knowledge
What a great homestead! It's off to a great start and I can't wait for the hunting season to begin!
Love your sustainable fore thinking on your land for it to provide for your family, the plants & all the animals of that area - that in turn come right back around to provide for your family. Now that’s a perfect circle of life.❤️ Also super impressed with your sustainable french fry oil fueled truck creation! I could watch you talk more about all those areas. Not to mention your toy making for your kids on Alone. So I started following your channel.
It’s an amazing place! You are in paradise!
Living vicariously through you, Clay. Thanks much for the homestead video!
You’re most welcome
Thats living IMO! A lot of work has gone into what you have there, and what a place for your kids to grow up. Thanks for sharing.
Clay your a celebrity now,you are very inspiring,what you did on that show was beyond amazing, hope they make a movie about it
Thanks for the tour and love the setup and how you’re planning for the future.
You're the man Clay!
Thank you for sharing and big and personal part of your life.
As close to perfection as I've seen! 👍
This is a Joy to see. Promotes positivity
Amazing! Bumped into this video then realized why you looked so familiar!! ✊🏽you’re awesome and so is your homestead! Thanks for all the knowledge.
Goodmorning. Thank you for your tour of the property. We live in the Netherlands and have a small(er) 1 acre property in the North of France. It so uplifting to see so people like yourself setting up a self reliant / self sufficient way of living. Your practical skillset is very useful.
That is a little piece of heaven on earth right there!!!!! No better way to raise a family - you are both great parents who have a common goal in mind - family!!!!!!
Thanks Steve
Love your place. Such a beautiful land to live in.
Love this!! We’re working on planning our homestead, keep the videos coming, very helpful!
What a bountiful homestead 🙌🏻
Inspired! would love to live this way. Someday. Someday. Thanks for sharing Clay!
Thanks for the video. Thumb up on creating wildlife habitat. You have the heart of a real hunter. Good job Clay.
Thanks much
I'm jealous 😁 but also at almost 62 years of age, I don't envy your " to do" list to maintain the place. Garden layout looks good to me. Looking forward to Liz's canning videos. My wife has been watching some of those and wishes she could find a copy of Liz's old canning book. Keep up the good work.
Beautiful piece of heaven you got there Clay. Thanks for sharing.
Happy to
What a wonderful place you have !!!
Blessings
I hope you guys know how beautiful of a life you live! I live in the city as a tattoo artist and what I wouldn’t do to change lifestyles! Keep raising your family right and cherish the times!
Absolutely amazing!
Awesome farm Clay. I'm green with envy. A prescribed burn before the seeds to lessen any competition.
This really is a paradise ❤
Indeed a little paradise on earth and it gets even better when the trees are bigger. Place a few more mineral blocks for the deer, they love it. Great family Clay ! Congrats on your victory in Alone.
Thanks much
Your living my dream Clay! I used to live in northern Utah but had to move to Tennessee for some personal and financial reasons, just watching you show your homestead makes me so home sick for the Great Northern West … I so enjoyed watching you survive on Alone and hoping your ways of common sense living will become the new norm for America one day …..If your not struggling your not living!
Clay your cool man you sound vary humble and like a good guy . You got a new sub thank you for showing all of us how we can live with out these darn citys. Be safe and agin thank you for letting us into your lives.
I just watched the season and sooo happy you won! I knew you would be the winner! So happy for you and your family!!
Thanks 😊
Bless you,,Clay!
Thanks for the great videos you and your wife produce.
Thanks 👍
My favorite UA-cam channel. Y'all have an awesome family and are an inspiration for many. Well done
Thanks much
Clay, love the tour. Gave me some good ideas for our homestead. Currently slaving away at our sandbag root cellar. Great video
Clay,
There’s a place called Adventure
that lives just on the horizon.
It calls us forth over the next ridge
and around the next bend.
It’s where life’s good stories live,
the ones that will be told
around campfires,
for a lifetime and more.
But Adventure doesn’t
give up her secrets easily,
She keeps them hidden
from all but the most willing.
Willing to pay the asking price.
Just in case you didn't get the transcript, S8 E10. You're amazing! Thank you for this moment of Truth and Beauty. Your words touched me. And gave me strength to carry on. I'm a 79 year old widow, living alone and lonely in Lone Tree CO. It came just after the shock of seeing Coulter -- who should win an award for the Grodiest of All the participants throughout the series so far. LOL God bless him! The series ALONE captured my spirit and senses. Just finished watching all 8 seasons. I'm grateful that at least I ain't got it that bad!!!
Unreal! Thank you!
Absolutely love that you all are self sufficient and lessening your carbon foot print, as well as not having an impact on the industrial animal factories in the meat industry
I'm here after finishing alone, I knew you were going to win! When they told you that it was the end and you didnt have to stay any longer, I definitely shed some tears esp when you spoke with your family! Congrats and well wishes for you and your family!
thanks Danielle
Such a cool little property! Giving me all sorts of ideas for future property (hopefully) and even for our small 2 acre property we own now.
Living the dream. Literally!
You have a beautiful place and I know it takes a lot of work to develop it into what you want☮️❤️
Shows how knowledgeable and thoughtful you are… thank you for sharing.
Thanks
Hello from Wisconsin. Your doing a excellent job in being a great land steward. Ive done simular things on my land. All the things your doing is great for attracting wildlife of all kinds. Its always a good thing when we give back to nature. Hope you have a great hunting season this fall! Im also excited about bow hunting this fall!!
Love ❤️ the Homestead Great Tour 😃
Hi clay. I've just started on your videos in the last few weeks and enjoy them a lot.
I watched your earlier homestead tour and this one. I am based in Australia and from here I would say:
- make sure your boys can grow gardens and preserve and cook as well as they can hunt and build
- secure as much water as you legally can. You're sure to be restricted on what you can take out of the creek, so put gutters on your house, underground tanks, rainwater barrels, toilets using rainwater, dig some dams, plant mulch crops, explore options to retain water on your crops, fields.
- windbreaks, animal shelters, woods you might want to harvest in the future, any wild plants that grow in idaho that will be beneficial. Even things like fish ponds, crabs, and yabbies ( that's what we call them in Australia. They are fresh water crustaceans/ shell fish. )
Wins $500,000 calls Home Depot, “hey can I have all your trees you don’t sell?”
Actually you don’t seem to have changed at all since winning.
I’m really enjoying your channel.
Beautiful property! Thanks for sharing!
Just finished watching alone season 8 and I loved it, beautiful peace of land you have brother
Thanks Skeeter
This is awesome! Nice work clay
Wow this is so nice. I love it.
I’m glad you mentioned that working home/farmsteads give a guy junk piles. I’ve been fighting to make my place pretty for years and I just keep building sheds with old fence posts, wire, lumber, and fencing laying outside of ‘em’ typically from a neighbors old dog kennels. I’ve come home to find lawnmowers, riders, and a snowblower in my shed from various buddies. One of them even worked right away… the deer here don’t even run from the dog anymore, so it’s been hard to keep the new orchard alive here too. It’s a good way to live though
So rad! Love seeing this! What you have done looks great! 😀
Thank ya. Stop by and we’ll shoot a round.
So awesome Clay, Thank you for making this update video of the homestead! Creative, Inspiring and well thought out. Those aspens are filling in nicely and going to be beautiful in the fall.
Owning a home at the beach here in SoCal I have always consider myself fortunate. But growing up on a farm with distant neighbors, room to roam, create and explore… I can’t help but desire that for my family too. A homestead like yours to raise the family most for year seems like the ideal situation. So stoked for you guys
Many thanks
I was looking through all the homestead videos deciding what to watch. I saw the bearded guy in the vortex shirt and I’m like “YUPPPP this is the 1!” 😂
😜
Gorgeous garden Liz!!
Love it all.
Place looks great!
Really awesome! I would love to get something like this going for myself.
Hey Clay, I spent my career working as a habitat biologist so watching you talk about the various native species was really interesting. I went to college in Moscow and always enjoyed that country up there, beautiful.
We enjoy it.
Thanks for sharing... Mother Earth News?... I've subscribed for decades... Great magazine... I love the self-sufficiency of your lifestyle... Lucy and I were pulling for your win... Congrats!... I am a "canner" myself and subscribed to Liz's channel after watching...Be safe and stay well.
Ehhh it'll do I guess😂😂😂. Brother it's absolutely beautiful!!! Good for you and yours man. Looks like paradise on earth!! Love when good things happen to good people!! GOD IS GOOD my friend!!
Very, very, nice!
Always enjoys your content. Learned a lot from you. We believe in homesteading and self sufficiency we’re doing the same .. thanks so much!
Good stuff
Have to add from what you have been showing us over the years on The Homestead You and The Family have made a lot of improvements.
Lots of work and more to do.
Nice Homestead. Enjoyed the walk around.
Awesome tour, we are planning our Organic farm in Surprise Arizona right now and hope to start construction before the end of the year. Got some good ideas from your tour.
💪Next level homesteading 👏
Nice work Clay. I'm up in CDA and we just bought 10 acres near Sagle, So some good helpful hints. Thanks!
I love the life you live!! Such a beautiful piece of land and family. Those are some lucky kids to have a father like you!
You are so kind
@@clayhayeshunter I coming. Where is my room??
Representing #Idaho! Just finished Season eight! And, Let's go! Well done! 👏 Super inspiring
Thanks Tyler
Great job on Alone! When you scored that deer I had a feeling you’d go all the way!
We enjoyed that 👍🏻
Place is looking great
More of this please!!
Wow you did amazing on alone! It was very inspiring watching you and all the other contestants. Your kids are lucky to have a dad like you. My father was an outdoorsman but I never got to meet him so I didn’t get to learn about the things he knew.
Thanks Amy
Awesome place buddy! Was raised over here in Kalispell, Montana. Only about 6 hours from ya. Love all your work!
Love that part of Idaho!
Clay that truck is badass!!!!
Owesome place, great place to live with family, give alot place to explore for k8ds.
Very nice place you and your family have there Clay. A wildlife heaven. About a week ago i ran into a 10 minute video that showed the last few minutes of your season 8 victory on "Alone." The last 2 days i have been binge watching the whole series. I am on day 49 and down to 4 survivors. Very hard living in the wild there. You getting that deer early on was a big win for you as you know. The last i watched you were getting frustrated with the gill net. I will watch the last episodes as time allows. The Lord has blessed you with a very high skill set on many area's in life. Of course your efforts to learn as brought the to fruition. Keep on keeping on.
Many thanks
Lots of changes since I took the bow course. Lots of changes and improvements. Keep it up!
And more to go!
