Justin I would like to suggest a maintenance Day on the first of every month for equipment and vehicles. I think it would save you a lot of money and teach those young men how to preserve the life of farm equipment.
This comment along with checking basics before and after use. Just like a car, just like any DOT vehicle. Always a pre trip and post trip along with weekly, monthly, quarterly, annual. It’s good to have a list. It’s like changing furnace filters, smoke/carbon monoxide batteries etc. Folks cost themselves a lot more money when they just disregard the “routine” maintenance or just looking at what they have going on.
I think it would be good to implement a machine checklist that is done EVERY DAY when using equipment. Like check all fluids, lights and horns before firing it up! No matter uf yiu che ked it the day before. Check it again! That's what we did in the airforce. That equipment is expensive. I think it would be good practice.
I'd be concerned keeping your wood chips close to the house as we get fire every year in our area with spontaneous combustion. There was a farm last year that their fire burned for months. That fire backed up to several homes. It was a concern it would spread to the homes. The Fire Dept worked very hard to keep that fire in place. I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas. A new horse how fun is that going to be.
Justin, imo, don't put wood chips under your house, why, you know the answer but for other folks who might not know, they generate heat and can/might catch on fire...period... it happens over at the local sawmill every year and the fire departments have to come and put them out and it can get hairy! Store them outside in a semi shallow pile and cover them.Imo.
Seems to me "losing stuff" is an on going problem. Time to spent 21-days forming new habit of consistently putting everything in its place... Shoes, tools, parts, wood, toys, etc. Notify white board for replacement items... Hydraulic oil, broken parts, fuses, etc. So, the next person who goes to town picks up needed items. Imagine going to get a tool and it's there. Maybe, children can find shoes? Oh, happy days. . .
Thats not Justins personality. He talks and thinks in ten directions at once. Im not being smart but I really think he has ADHD. Being organized and doing one thing at a time will never happen.
I got a freeze dryer just before the holidays and was told one round of bread is good. but I wasn't told it was to detoxify the machine? It was to make sure the machine was doing every step. anyone want to fill me in?... GO.... LOL
Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 I've been watching your videos for a while since your wife was in one of Hurricane Helen. I've been watching them ever since. But I've been wondering why you laugh sometimes. Is it a joke or what?
Your boys are so helpful, but Jonah as the oldest should be more respectful when he is speaking to his Pa. An unGodly child who lacks respect for his Father is a bad example for his younger brothers and sister. May God speak wisdom into his younger heart.

You and those boys work so hard to make the homestead work. Great job boys. 😊
Getting these vlogs over the holidays, legit feels like a personal gift. 🎄🎁 🙏
And and, they are super sized!! 🥰🥰🥰
Merry Christmas everyone!! 🤣
Blaze is such an awesome boy... for Lilly to ride all over without anyone watching or without any supervision is truly a gift. He loves her❤
There's never gonna be another pony like Blaze. He has a huge heart.

Hello. The moments go by fast. And yes lots of expenses as they get older. Wood chips.
roll up paper into pretzels make a little nest of them , light ends so fire climbs up paper instant fire start

this comment... should be talked about and boosted
100% this is concerning
Carpenter ants will come and eat the wood chips and infest the house
Happy Day 🥳 ❤ stay healthy 💕PS awesome horse DAD ❤
Happy Day....after Christmas!
Greetings from Northeast Ohio. Jonah, you had me going to. I believed you. I was getting very nervous lol sure glad you had that in your pocket.
You should do trellising between the high tunnel and the water
First comment!!! Hope y'all have a great day to whomever reads this. 😊
Hey y'all! ❤
Try calling a tree company and see if you can get free wood chips a lot of three people wanna get rid of them and don’t have any word to take them
Ohhhhh snap... Jonah has most definitely entered in the too sassy for his britches phase.. Fun Times!! lol
Do y’all ever do maintenance on your equipment? I’ve never heard you talk about it or seen you do it. It’s really important 😊

Be careful with those wood chips
fire accident i mean
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Growing up if we wanted a car we had to save up for it. We would never give in a car except my brother because he was a boy!
Checking equipment every day before you use it should save you a lot of downtime
Wood chips can combust, so piling them next to your new house may not be a good idea.
