Thanks! Totally miss seeing your homestead! I’ve been a follower for a long time- when y’all were in the camper looking for your homestead! I do enjoy seeing your hard work and sacrifice! Miss seeing the kids grow too- but totally get why you don’t show them anymore! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Way to go!
Hi Eric! Good seeing the homestead. On this Memorial Day, we thank you for your service to our country🇺🇸. You gave your maple trees a year of rest. It was certainly a strange year for tapping maple trees. It was extremely early and was on again off again style. I remember how much you all loved the maple syrup!!!!! Thank you for sharing this video. ~ T & M
So there I was.... sitting in Sunday School when we focused in the end of Genesis. Imagine my surprise when I "re-learned" the fact that the Israelites lived in Goshen while staying in Egypt. Tres Cool!!
I LOVE our woodstove. It keeps our house warm...sometimes too warm. But, we also have a furnace. In the spring when the days are warm but cold at night we use it in the morning for an hour or so. This takes the chill off the house until the sun comes up.
Hi Eric. A little advice about the tractor. ideally it should be under a roof, the sun dries out the tires, hoses, etc. which is expensive to fix. If it sits outside, at least put an empty 5 gal. pail over the shifter. Otherwise when it rains, the water runs down the stick and gets into the hydraulic oil causing huge problems. Your place has a lot of potential! Thanks for sharing!
Hey Eric It’s the other Eric lol it’s nice to see your homestead y’all have got it together guys I’m impressed it’s good to see that you practice what you preach lol I’ve got those sugar maple’s around the off grid cabin I’ve got I’d like to know when and how to tap it for sap I’ve had to cut one up due to a storm it smells good when burning in the fire place lol !!
I’m so glad you are back. I followed you pretty much from the beginning of your channel and have missed you. You guys are real people and that’s why I love your videos. Welcome Back!
Add a on demand water pump 12 to that water tank powered from the sun then you’ll match us ! Those water containers are life sustainers! Both fresh water and processed used Hope your enjoying my book Best wishes
Oh I am glad you are showing your homestead and poultry. And you are a medical man and so know biology. Now l.never heard anywhere that sulfa is used to treat respiratory issues. About 1954 when l was a teenager l had a small chicken 🐔 farm and egg 🥚 route. ln those days we never heard of bird flu. From time to time l would have a hen with respiratory problems and my mother would bring the ill hen into our basement and cure her with sulfa and each time another hen was cured and back into the flock she went.And for good or bad that is the story told for information purposes only
When you pull that starter try turning the shaft a little and then give it power. Sometimes it gets in just the right position and it can't move. Shalom
Ah that's a beautiful property/scenery but I am going to say it Camo that blue coup LOL. Just kidding it's yours and do what you want. Love old rusty as a mechanic it would really cool if you made a video and rebuilt the starter yourself as if the stuff already hit the fan and the parts store was closed. Thanks for sharing love all your vids and the best to your entire family. Semper Fi brother.
@GoshenPrepping Thanks. My dad bought the first one in 78. I still have it and use it. I have collected a few more molines. Love them and there interchangeable parts and simplicity.
Blueberries do well in this area!! We're in our garden putting in the last of the plants!! Just 2 acres for veggies, we got our sweet corn and dent corn out back this year! More room in electric fence garden! Don't feed the deer!!! Lol semper fidelis to my brothers
Hi Eric. Happy Memorial Day weekend to you and your family. (Sadly missed. I know they're growing in leaps and bounds, spiritually, mentally, and physically) I understand you and Ashley's reason for the protection of your family. When you both stated why, sometime back I didn't. Wasn't aware of what was going on at that time here in southwest Ohio and then... WOW. I understand.
HELLO LADIES! And guys too. Calling in from lovely Hamtramck this post dawn morning. Great property! Love that blue coop. Go ladies! Great video. I dont know if your garden plot is dampish or not. I will assume, as is Michigan, a mixed lot. Hmm. Mom, the farmer says, clear out that brush and trees and till the ground. Many plants crops do fine on fresh tilled ground. Others do not. You also need to think obout shade, you know this as you are smart folk, but hours of that direct sunlight. With larger lands you can have different plots or fields. Some for those berries, others for the more grain and tubers. Frankly a orchard of well drained soil is what mom thinks. Apples, cherries and peaches. They come on at different times and four trees of each will provide your growing tribe with pleanty. Dad says to get some goats and clear it out this year. He likes hogs better for clearing and many people love to buy free range hogs. Define the boundaries with fence and let them prepare the ground for you. They feel a double purpose for everything is a good idea. And yes, in hard times we ate our pets. In the early 70s, we had some milk cows and a couple bulls. More for milk and pets and permanent residents. Times got bad. It was winter. One bull was named Buford. He was older and a favorite. At dinner one night dad and mom told us we had to sell the cows and the hogs. We just needed the money very very badly. Farming equals poverty mostly. The next day we watched the hobby farm guys come and get the livestock. Buford did not go. We figured it out before mom and dad told us. We were down to little grain and hay. Buford was slaughtered the next day. As was the one hog left. We kept the sow as she was full of piglets. My oldest brother did the kill shot. He was loved till the end. We butchered him that week. I was wearing my new leg braces. Mom was able to take us to the dentist too. dad gave the remaining hay to the neighbors up the hill. Their horses were starving. Nothing sadder than a starving horse. I remember waking up one morning. In the good neighbors, pasture the one horse dying. The oldest girl had his head on her lap, crying. It had become spring by then. My tough mom went over and sat with her to console her. He had been eating the fresh grass. He was skin and bones, but had made the winter. For a long time she sat there as her sisters joined her. Us guys went over to say we were sorry.. He long hair covering her face and the horse as he had died. Later she would thank us for helping to feed them Dad was always coming across a deal for old hey. It just was not enough. That winter we would have school friends come over. They were amazed on how well we ate. Steaks and roasts every night. The freezers were full of Buford, the hog and chickens. Meat every night. Before we ate, we thanked Buford for his gift to us. I was still sad. I told my mom we should eat the neighbors next time. She looked at me and said, "they would be pithy meat and taste bad." Everyone laughed as they got the joke. I did too eventually. Buford was a great guy. He gave us lots. In that ground I would clear asap and put in a set grain Not to late for corn. Have you thought of tobaco? It will grow in Michigan. Good time to put in next years crops too. As you are in a cooler climate maybe a small pond in the low part. Like in Chile, the traditional way is to have a little pond and put trees and crops around it. Acts as a heat source and micro system environment. I would mound and put in a few rows of potatoes also. Or let goats or hogs run wild. To all my friends out there. Buy land now. I am already seeing the refugees from the big cities of the east and west coming to Michigan and the middle. Most want homes. But, the big parcels are being carved up. Tax sales, whatnot. Little plots can feed you a lot. Good luck. Great vid
Bit of a difference there, she is old enough and mature enough to make a considered decision regarding her own privacy, not so much the case for the little 'uns.
Good for you keeping your little ones off utube. When they grow up and understood, they can decide themselves. Maybe even get their own channel. Our country could use the kind of kids you’re raising to reach out to the same age bracket as themselves, and teach how important preparation is for themselves and their future children….keep in going Eric..God bless our Veterans.

Its a DEW resistant chicken house 😂😂😂😂😂

Oh also forgot thanks for sharing the homestead with all of us, your friends
I miss your family and your weekly visit to your homestead via you tube!
Really like the personal touch! Your property is very green and lush
Beautiful chickens and property. God bless.
First time I've seen you away from the desk. Nice wooded srea.
So there I was.... sitting in Sunday School when we focused in the end of Genesis. Imagine my surprise when I "re-learned" the fact that the Israelites lived in Goshen while staying in Egypt. Tres Cool!!
Yep, that's why it's called Goshen Prepping.
Beautiful property , THANK YOU ERIC FOR THE TOUR
Thank you for sharing your land! It’s beautiful!😊
I love seeing your place ! Thank you !
I really like your summertime vids! Thank You so much!👍😁
If the critters got your chickens, how will you protect your fruits and vegetables??
I LOVE our woodstove. It keeps our house warm...sometimes too warm. But, we also have a furnace. In the spring when the days are warm but cold at night we use it in the morning for an hour or so. This takes the chill off the house until the sun comes up.
Sure miss seeing the kiddos and them playing on the property. Seeing your garden and how it’s doing. Your grocery runs are fun to see.
I miss these videos.It was nice to see the updates.
Thanks for sharing a glimpse of your property. I am a bit jealous, I want to have chickens as well.
Hi Eric. A little advice about the tractor. ideally it should be under a roof, the sun dries out the tires, hoses, etc. which is expensive to fix.

Happy Memorial Day and thank you for your service as well as your videos. You and Naomi are great together!

Paint your white water tank a dark color to prevent algae from growing inside the tank.

Very nice Eric. Thanks for sharing.
I've got a great idea to keep deer outta your garden
i got blueberries last year and they did absolutely but came back this year and started growing so wel'll see
Loved the tour ❤ Blueberries are a great idea, we've been thinking of putting some in too 🫐
Hello Folks
Nice little IH. Handy tractor. Bout the same size as my 445 minneapolis moline.
That's a nice little tractor you have yourself!
@GoshenPrepping Thanks. My dad bought the first one in 78. I still have it and use it. I have collected a few more molines. Love them and there interchangeable parts and simplicity.
nice place..miss your video
Deer have ravished my blueberries. My last ditch effort this year is human hair around the base.
Happy Memorial Sunday!
Beautiful!! Thanks for sharing! Love that Rusty! 😂😂
Nice!❤
GOOD
I have trauma from roosters when I was 3 yrs old. I am terrified of birds and I couldn't raise chickens. My husband has raised rabbits before.
You know there was a chicken ranch near La Grange Texas, i think ZZ Top did a song about it lol
Thanks for the video and your service
Nice coop. It would be good if the windows open for ventilation in the summer. Nice area. Thanks for showing your property.
They do open
@@GoshenPrepping Sorry about the assumption, but other ppl might not know this.
Thanks. Love your informative video's.
No worries Judy.
Blueberries do well in this area!! We're in our garden putting in the last of the plants!! Just 2 acres for veggies, we got our sweet corn and dent corn out back this year! More room in electric fence garden! Don't feed the deer!!! Lol semper fidelis to my brothers

I love Michigan so beautiful 🇺🇸
Great day in the morning. Watkins Glen NY waving 🤘.
Much appreciate your daily intel and outlook on various situations and ideas… keep up the great work!!!
Happy Memorial Day!

I love trees I love the forest. I love animals. Thanks for showing me you're a beautiful property.
Against fire 🔥 🤪
Nice place Eric
Happy Sunday ! What breed is Oreo? He's gorgeous 😊
Very nice! For OpsSec, it'll be Karen from the County or the Fed Gov that'll be licking their lips before the average thief.
Do you have lots of ticks??
Almost never! Our neighbor down the road has a lot of them, but we don't have many pine trees, so very little ticks.
My husband told me to tell you to get a donkey, they will go after and kill coyotes, wolves, hyenas, wolverines and more, to protect your livestock
Thank you for your service Eric @ goshen prepping
huh, not showing the kids? You have been doing vids with your daughter lol
Bit of a difference there, she is old enough and mature enough to make a considered decision regarding her own privacy, not so much the case for the little 'uns.
huh, seriously? I'm not showing CHILDREN! Big difference!
Please dont show your property online. Those who were to fat and lazy to get their affairs in order will come looking for your supplies.
Muslims will be there soon enough.
Good for you keeping your little ones off utube. When they grow up and understood, they can decide themselves. Maybe even get their own channel.

We have three of the containers and a water system for the garden. I love that you're doing that.
Plant raspberry for perimeter defense 😊
Consider elderberry bushes also.
Why did I think you lived in suburbs?
