I was thinking instead of having a compost pile put everything in with your pigs and let them break everything up that way they can put it into the ground and it will help benefit them also

Another thing you could also do is build some perches or things for them to climb on and put it in their run. Its a fun project to do and the chickens will love it. Just an idea 💡

We just got through our first year on our new homestead too, and it was definitely a wild ride! Looking back on it, it's almost hard to believe how much we were able to accomplish in just one year. I like the idea of making a list of goals for the year, I think I will start that today. Subscribed, it'll be fun seeing what we can both get accomplished this next year!

I was blown away when you said you guys made 22 goals last year, I loved your realistic review and seeing all the steps you've taken this past year that I might have missed as a new follower! Keep taking those steps & can't wait to see what you guys create in the coming year!

Ty acres of adventure for sharing You guys are doing a great job!! We started with chickens 8 months ago. One bantam rooster, 3 bantam hens, and 3 standard hens. The rooster is so small he’s not much of a threat :). Just like you guys we are trying to be self sustaining. Gods Peace and Blessings and Protection to you and family

In Michigan also! I love watching homesteaders in the same garden zones as me :)

BRAVO! This is a great video. It sounds like a Business Plan well on its way. I love that you make your plans together. And, you are so on the point with write down your goals or your forget them. I am elderly and disabled so I have a handyman who helps me out once or so a week. I make a list and when he leaves I go out and realize that one of my really big needs is not on the list and he is gone for a week. So, always make a list. It is a reminder when you have so many things going on. BTW, I love that you have your goal of being outside. The sun and fresh air is so important to good health. Those are very happy children and I didn't see you coaching them to be happy. So many parents, in my opinion, make the chores a bad thing instead of a fun thing. Learning to work together is an excellent life skill and being outside to do it - Well, the best. Are you going to home school?

See if we do decide to go for it on videos I already have content to post.

If someone has a homestead and starts inviting people to start building tents and temporary structures on the property to live in , and getting those same folks to do all the work associated with a homestead is it still considered a "homestead" or is it a "Commune"?....... 3 Eggs 🥚🥚🥚🥚
