    A trick that we used to get the animals in the barn is we got a bell and rang it when it was feeding time. Better than rounding them up. We love your show.

    You make off Grid Farm Life look easy but that's only for those of us who don't take the full workload of the day into account. Thanks for showing the smile's that comes out of doing what you have a great passion for! I often read in the comments section people saying how much they enjoyed life on the farm as a kid, and your children so often show why and that's even it seems when required to do certain tasks. I can only imagine how much of the workload your children will probably relieve you of as grow older. But how great it is now 👏 that they can just be kids.

    Still amazed at how much she knows about farm life, aside from being a teacher. Coming from a non-farm upbringing, how much of this is common knowledge for farm people?... my dads family was in the dairy world. They owned several dairy’s and my dad was a milkman, but nobody knows where the milk came from... if I remember correctly it was driven in, but from where we don’t know. One closed when I was little, the other closed when my great uncle retired. My dad’s milkman’s job ended when the dairy closed.

You guys chose have it rough on your decision to where to live in a northern clime which makes it more admirable.
