    Hey Cori and Michelle! I’m a DIY UA-camr, no farming, just crafts, but I wanted to tell you that you do a really great job incorporating storytelling into DIY. I’m taking notes. 😊 I used to live in Sunbury Ohio and watching your videos makes me a bit nostalgic!

    I like the design, I’ve built smaller versions for our “teenage chickens”, now I have some fresh ideas for a larger version. Now I just have to learn how to weld 😂

    That’s a good coop! I like that it’s tall enough to walk into if needed. Great instructions!!

    I wish you weren't so cavalier about getting red arms in the sun. Wear a long sleeved shirt, dude.

    Please make a best survival garden vid and best perrenial garden vid for the coming food meltdown.

      Thank you for the suggestion! I will try to do a video on that soon. We are passionate about growing things that are easy to store and eat year-round, and about using perennials as much as possible!

    Nice! I appreciate the ideas. Now to actually build myself one... Haha. I'm also impressed you've got some welding skills!

      Thanks man :) I quit school in the middle of 10th grade to work with my dad.. I learned some things that I think are a little more valuable than Algebra 2 ;)

    Also any urban gardening related vids

      I’ve never gardened in an urban setting, but later today I will be posting a video on building raised beds which would definitely work in an urban setting.

    you can just cut that metal stuff with a razer blade?

    • @morethanfarmers
      @morethanfarmers  10 місяців тому +1

      If you score with a razor blade you cand bend it back and forth, and it'll break where you made the "cut".
