Great info. Thanks for sharing.
I'd love to know how you deal/dealt with all the regulations around farming.
Great vid. More stuff like this thanks
Thanks Aonghus
Awesome, really cool to see how you got started. Very well executed!
Thanks
Thank you so much Cathal for going to the effort to make this video, it really shows that, when you have a plan and are not afraid to go for it, success is bound to follow !!
thanks Kevin
Good man Cathal , there’s a book in you yet 😉👍
Theres a few more mistakes to be made before then I think.
@@heatherhillfarm1303 😂👍
I think this is your most important video to date!
Nice of your sisters to support your venture with the renting of their shared ten acres. Your better half, father and uncle have also been a big support.
Compared to all the other homesteading and regenerative farming YT channels I’ve watched, Heather Hill is BY FAR the most valuable for educational purposes and openness of the financial inputs and returns!
You have come a long way my friend, ahead of the trend as well. I bet your friends have changed their tune now!
😉
Hi Dick, thanks so much for your words of encouragement.
Hi Cathal - I heard you on Owenea FM over the weekend and then followed you here. I'm in the states, though my family is still up in Aighe. Congratulations on what you've built there. The videos are fascinating - I'll be sure to stop and see you when next I'm in Ireland. Good luck to you!
Cheers Cathal, interesting to see the evolution of your farm.
Thanks Seamus, There will be another 2 or so parts more to get the story up to where we are today.
@@heatherhillfarm1303 👍
Very interesting a lot of hard work gone into it 👍
Yes, a lot of the time I struggle to see the progress but when you take a step back its visible.
Good stuff, Cathal. I'm doing enterprise sheets for a market garden at the minute. For €40k salary and reasonable working hours it is looking like I'd need to be extremely efficient and grow high value crops. Not easily done.
Enjoyed the video. Once you go through the history of your farm would you do a looking forward video too? Would be interested to hear your thoughts on organic status, costs of layers and broilers feed and also the big elephant in the room, bird flu. It kind of puts free range and pasture fed birds off the table. It has been ramping up over the last few years and this year never really went away over summer. Are there potential options with regards to special moveable housing etc? Cheers
Il get through these videos and then il do one for the future, i general only really plan in detail 1 year ahead, as my context normally changes to much to plan further than a year if that makes sense, I talked about my thoughts on organic grains for layers in the last video. I might get round to the other topics down the road, there are defo worth some thought.
Very interesting Cathal, thanks.
Thanks Anegla
Amazing
thanks Samuel
Great video thanks for sharing your history I'm currently having a go after going on Richards coarse right after yours in henbant and we've taken on 100 turkeys without as much data checking just going in with a wing and a prayer exciting but very scary times we are bwywd newydd if your interested
Thanks Luke, best of luck with your turkeys, on the job is the best learning I think.
Title is a little mis-leading, because you had land you could use. If you have land, you are over the biggest obstacle. Good luck going forward..
Hi Simon, I didn't have land starting out, i still don't own a single square foot of land today, I had to go and convince my dad to let me use basically half his farm for a year doing something that by its nature said how he was and is farming was not a good practice. that's not as straightforward as you would think. but I was lucky that he supported me and let me do my thing.
@@heatherhillfarm1303 I understand that, but 99% of people don't have land they can borrow, so you are very lucky!
Brother, you have taken 0 risk. You are using land your parents payed off, quit a job while living at home and now use your Dad's tools and leftover materials to build things. I'm not knocking your achievements or goals with the opportunities you have available to you. You did choose to title your video what you did though, which is very misleading. It seems like you have no perception of what failure would look like for someone who actually did do what your title claims.
Zero risk are you mad he invested 10 grand before having his own land I think this video and title are fair!
@@lukehorton707 I clicked on this video because of the title as this is what I plan on doing in the next few years here. 10k is nothing when you have no other bills and no responsibilities, if he fails its his parents land, nothing happens. He pays back a 10k loan that could be payed off working at Starbucks part time, while he still lives at home. A person who has no land, can't take out a 10k loan and make this a reality. You need to own land... lands gonna cost you way more then 10k... that's not even a down payment on land. Then you need to buy tools and materials to maintain the land. That's gonna cost more then 10k in tools alone, if you need to mow and put up fencing or chop trees to clear space or excavate... Now do this while quitting your job, but be able to earn enough to pay off mortgage or property taxes alone plus feed your family and turn a profit to be able to pay back loans so you don't lose your land and all your hard work... failure would mean you lose everything, the banks take your land back and foreclose on you. Failure can't be an option because it would destroy you... taking out a 10k loan and using your family's land to do things is great for him, and not realistic for 99% of the population.
@@Cynics29 jealously is an awful trait to have.
That’s what thinking holistically can achieve. It would be nuts to spend money you can’t afford on stuff you can get for free.
