- Well, it was an interesting first day of renovation on the farm! Lots of work, lots of cleanup and lots of battle scars.... here's sneak peek into our next few weeks and some upcoming challenges at the barn and farm!!
Time for a tick inspection!!
And yes. He did have one!! Luckily still crawling in him and not in his skin! 😣
😂😂😂 I’m dying! He cracks me up! When he falls down. 😂😂😂
Y'all are hilarious! Lots of work to do, but you're getting it done!
This was the best video. I laughed so much that my stomach hurt. Your hubby is so dang funny. 😂
Shelley, maybe you could try the sun protective farmers sleeves for your arms while you are clearing your property.
😆🤣😂😁 I did a LOT of rewinding and watching again in this video!! I’m not envious of the work ahead of you two but I am here for it!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼
Bryan worked really hard, Shelley. And he fell pretty hard a few times, lol. For a job this size, just do like you all did today, a little at a time, and keep telling yourself that each thing you get done, you don’t have to do it again. Going to be great.
Real woodsman there!!
Your husband cracks me up! My husband and I, always get a chuckle when watching 😂
I love it all, you're all hilarious, actually made my day! Thanks guys.🤩
Glad you enjoyed it!
I see a windmill powered aerator for the pond in the future...🤔
Unless u have a problem with using herbicides suggest you save a very lot of rework and paint the stumps within ten mins of cutting down shrubs or trees with either a 20-25% mixture of glyphosate or the product named ‘stump killer’. If not you’ll have to cut that brush etc again. Just a thought Enjoyed watching the video
We have an excavator coming in a couple weeks to dig out the stumps and till up the growing space… hoping that will help!
The first 60 seconds had me laughing my ass off! I know some followers give you such a hard time but your jolly, condescending banter together is so some of what I admire about your channel! Cannot wait to watch flower farm unfold 💐❤
You two are so funny together. Bryan did such a good job with those vines, not voles! You'll probably find resident critters inside the barn ! Looks good after only 1 day of clearing! You probably should increase hubby's life insurance, he does fall down a lot!! 🙂
Woohoo! So exciting to see you two working on the new property. Maybe you should tie up the old branches and pull them out with the truck or atv, save your back! I love you guys and am so excited for you.
re: voles. Time for a few barn cats!
Go to your local farm elevator and ask for stump killer. It's a liquid you put on stumps after cutting down that kills it. Or you can let it grow back and redu again. It will be so beautiful when done.
Great video! You guys are so entertaining! That type of work sucks but you’ll get there in no time. My back hurts just watching ya, lol. We gotta do the same thing at our land too. The barn is going to be beautiful! I heard on flower hill farm she’s in NY, uses Repellex granular for the voles at her flower farm. Also, she plants extra every thing for deer and critter pressure. Something, I learned this past year about ponds is they need maintenance for algae control. It will get really nasty if left unchecked all summer. And a pump helps. Idk, we have 2 ponds to maintain that we knew nothing about a couple years ago but we’re learning too. So much fun to be part of your journey! 😊❤
Thanks! Will research your recommendations!
To the "King of Procrastination" you did a great job. The front of the barn looks so nice now. Shelly you are both work horses. Great job. Bryan about the moles and voles they both burrow in the ground, voles feed on plants and tree bark (vegetarians) and roots and stems of plants and moles feed on plants and insects(meat eaters). Take a look on the internet to see the difference between them(easier then explaining them.) Oh I'm with Shelly I would keep and use the tree you kept would make a great welcome sign. Would look great for Christmas with lights on it and what about eggs hanging on it for Easter time. There are more possibilities I'm sure too! But wow what a great start today. Great job!
Thanks Gala!
And yes- that was my idea for the tree! Great minds think alike!
Voles are our biggest problem as well and field mice at our farm.
You're doing a great job!
Be careful pulling those vines. My husband threw his back out when we were young pulling vines off the side of a house. Still has trouble to this day with his back.
This is great! Oh my when the hubby fell into the vines I was so afraid his head would hit that concrete looking thing behind him. You guys are a hoot. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing!! Please wear long sleeves, gloves, boots, sunscreen etc. Going to be beautiful
You guys’ videos always cheer me up !! So, excited for you both !!!
i cannot wait to see this property transformed. It will be beautiful!
I'm the same way with the heat. If the sun is shining I get hot when it's 55 or 60!
What a great 1st day guys great job and so funny! Looking forward to your updates!🤣
Awesome job, it's going to look fabulous when you get it done..so exciting !!
Y’all are awesome! This going to be fun
What a project, just when I thought we would all be stuck for 5 yrs watching with barn at home, looks like another 5 now 😊
I did notice when the hubs fell, looked he just missed hitting some big cement block thing, glad he's ok...shwee. That pond is fabulous.!
Well that painter won’t have white pants, he’s having way to much fun! Oh I hope those vines aren’t poison ivy sumac or something. They all look the same right now
Definitely found something itchy, all up
his arms this week, poor guy!
Have nicknamed this “The Funny Farm”. 😂 Absolutely hilarious watching and listening to the two of you ‘bicker’ and tumble. One suggestion I have is to hit the tops of all those stumps with round up otherwise your gonna get a boat load off shoots coming back. Also could you do a controlled burn of the fields. The charring is great for the soil and would speed up the clean up.
Thanks! We have an excavator coming to dig out the stumps and roots in 2 weeks. Hoping that helps!
Of course, sumac and poison sumac are VERY different plants.
I enjoyed the video, but I’m certainly glad to be watching it and not working in it! If anyone can tackle a project of this magnitude, though, it’s you and Bryan. I’m looking forward to watching your progress each step of the way.
This was awesome. I wish I lived closer so I could come help.
Love the pond! We have a Mole and a Vole this year. Never had them before. Hope they move on. Great work you guys!
Love watching the work being done. At 18:40 that is one hairy silo!
It’s so bad!! The vines actually grew under the steel cables and they are like 4” thick! Just crazy!
Only reason for the cleaning is because a painter needs space, annoying nature stuff around his walls. Maybe rent a woodchipper, its just an idea :)
You guys are doing good…keep it up…
Great ending! LOL!!!
🤣 OMG your husband is freaking hilarious 😂
Yikes - long sleeves 😳
Why waste time cutting that all up? Drag it into a pile and burn it. LOL Got flower beds to dig! LOL
We're learning! That sounds much better to me!
When we cleaned our woodsy area out, we burned a ton of wood. I love a good roaring fire.
Please don’t kill your self. I would really miss you!😢
GM what the plan for you all new place?
We’re hoping to restore the barn and land to farm flowers and vegetables. Also hoping to add some habitat for native birds and pollinators on the hillside.
Bryan falls a lot for a man who makes a living on a ladder. 🖌🪜🤕
