I love your boys they are the best. So rare to have such hard working helpful kids especially teens they are wonderful young men. I'm from Australia and I don't know of any teens tgat are so helpful and respectful. A credit to you both.
I realize that his children are forced child labor like all of us did growing up. I realize he sticks his camera in their faces, maybe whether they are ok with it or not. I realize this is how they enjoy this lifestyle too. And I am sure he has told his kids this. But showing there attitudes on camera makes it look like these attitudes are ok and totally one sided. It makes his kids look ungrateful. (Except for Lily, but she is still young, that might change.) In the past his kids looked perfect, never complaining and hard workers. So maybe he needed to show they were normal teenagers. Either way, a better balance is needed. Justin doesn't let his kids disrespect their mother, but their attitudes are borderline disrespectful to him. Hopefully he addresses this off camera.
Your content makes me smile every time the kids are included in your videos. Today was a great video, I was so happy to see the children working. The ending made me laugh...with Henry .
Favorite part is one of the big boys telling Henry “get it over with!” Justin… I’m here for the family. We love you guys! You are an inspiration! I have 5 boys and I have tried to raise them to be strong and capable like you!!
Just love watching All the children working hard towards the goal. Growing up so fast. Pretty soon the baby will have chores. My 93 year old mom enjoys watching the kids. Enjoy the canning Rebecca , all my tomatoes are splitting in all the crazy rain.
Lift the bucket up pull the barrows etc under them and push the compost in will take three or for shovels and be quicker than shovelling either direct to beds or into wheel barrows
Do you want to be friends with me on tex I'm a girl I'm 38 old I'm in a wheel chair my body hurts me every day so if I ask you too play with your body on tex
In my allotment I came up with a lazy compost spreading method. Cut a longish strip of tarp, put a bunch of compost all along it by your pile, drag on to your row and as you pull along the length of row raise your end so it rolls off the other as you walk
Hey boys. We know you two have your own list of chores to do but very much love seeing you help your papa. Especially on jobs you might not count as your favorites. It shows good moral fiber, plus is one of the few times we get to see you featured for any length of time in the vlog! Respect. And to Gideon and Lily too. Lily already has it with her self-direct contributions to the meals. Gideon being left to do the dishes and reliably following through on it is something new and welcomed we weren't seeing just a year ago. (Hint -- some of us don't watch just to hear your dad talk!)
Wish I could be there to help plant. Miss working a farm and gardening. That tomato looked so good. Lower acid in those but doesn't change the taste. Yum
Hey man, you don’t need to apologize in your letter. Most of us got what you were meaning even with half the letter. You were talking about putting less emphasis on politics and more on the present things that matter. Even I got it and I’m from Canada. Lol😂
OCD is worrying about a simple corner measuring string while your son is using a large crappy tractor bucket, instead of just , wait for it, pulling out that measuring string lol.
@@Nummey , yep! We definitely saw the control freak today. That one shovel at a time was not making good use of their time. Just let the boys do it the way they wanted. The point is getting the work completed not always how you do it.
Can somebody share a link to lily’s channel? Or do the kids not choose to do that? All good either way but I’d enjoy watching Lily make ice cream and talk horses more :D
@@patriciagoubeaud1622 , he’d actually get a project done! LOL! The only clock he should be using is the sun! If it’s daylight get up and get your daily work done. It’s weird how he only gives himself a 2 hour time limit on a 6 hour job. You’d think after homesteading “ for 19 years” he be better at this stuff.
Why do the rich give to the wealthy? There are many channels starting out, trying with limited resources to do very interesting worthwhile things. This channel, over a million subscribers, building a custom home, a pay as you go online community, book sales, and obviously not lacking anything. To me it seems like lazy giving.

Justin... instead of constantly fretting about the plantlets in the greenhouse yellowing (Lack of nitrogen usually) use some fish emulsion fertilizer on them to buy you some time... its not that hard lol. Also not to be critical... but those boys need direction. Sure let them have the autonomy for the tasks they are responsible for. But they need to act like a team and not abandon you and the running of the farm to do what they want, and not what's needed.

I plan on getting a home gym for my farm in oz for the family and workers because i like to train and it's fun for me , it's known farmers are strong the term is "farmer strong" it's from all the farm work and protein from the milk and eggs. the two best protein sources for absorption is cows milk and also eggs and meat a little further down the list. Your boys will probably get yoked from all the farm work have you considered training them maybe with a barbell.
