I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas in my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much MORE!
At Lumnah Acres we hope our experiences can help guide you to find YOUR BETTER WAY! Please join us in sharing our journey with you, let us be a guide to Modern Homesteading, Self-Sufficiency, and FREEDOM for you!

    Hello Al Lumnah, live from the UK. I am an Disabled American Veteran living in the UK. My British wife and I both are Renal patients, who have been self isolated for the last 16 days. We are dialysing as I type this. I have watched nearly every one of your videos in the last 8 months. My wife gets jealous, because I want to do what you have done and are still doing. We finally had to run to the store yesterday to restock our shelves. The brits are limiting how much you can buy of each item. We are doing fine otherwise. We live on the English Channel coast line where not many people contracted Coronavirus. My brother-in-law contracted it 3 days ago in London. All we can do is pray for everyone. Keep the videos coming so we can keep up with your homestead. God bless you and your family.

    Hey guys WA. state here. We have shortages but seems every other day is replenished. So not to bad but keeping 2 granddaughters busy wow I get tired just watching them. We are trying to cook 2 different countries meals. Monday was Mediterranean (Greek), Tuesday was of course Tacos, but Saturday (today)will be Italian homemade ravioli. They learn to cook and figuring fractions at the same time. Best thing this week was the oatmeal raisin cookies the girls made. Hope everyone stays safe have a great weekend.

    What’s different in Indy? IN is on lockdown. Our 28 yr old son moved back in (he has a lung issue and our house is safer than his large apartment building). We are enjoying his energetic 1 year old puppy! Our family isn’t eating out, which I count as a good thing, healthier and cheaper too. My husband is still paying his employees at his small business even though they aren’t working. Feels like he’s the only one who didn’t lay off, but we feel responsible for those families so he’ll keep it up as long as he can. Going to bake some more bread today, my new normal! Stay safe and God bless Lumnahs.

    The local shops have been wonderful at adapting for our town. Our butcher (who only supplies from local farms) is doing deliveries to the vulnerable, as are two of the general food shops. The food market are delivering fresh fruit and vegetables, and we even have a very small dairy who bottle their own milk helping out as and when they can. Other members of the community are picking up and delivering the odds pieces, such as medications to people in any of the high risk groups. It's a real team effort, and we're lucky to have such a community spirit. I am blessed to have such strong roots to the town, and to live here, and these are main reasons why.

    Gooooooood Afternoon Al , Gina & Olivia , Al , good job replacing the seal. Thanks for allowing me to " help " , lol. That was an interesting assembly . I will join the others in saying that you missed the opportunity to replace the torn boot while you mostly had it apart anyway. Now you still have a torn boot which still should be replaced. Except that now , it will be repeat work. I always tried to do work only once. As for the seal on the opposite side. Often if you have two parts and one fails the other is not far behind. On the other hand the opposite seal may never leak / fail . It's an executive decision to take the gamble. In the far distant past , I once did my own work as you just did . At the time I was looking forward to NOT having to do it ! Now , I am 77 and my health does not allow me to do such things. And believe it or not , I miss doing my own work . Lol I watch you changing the seal and I wish that I could it also. Because I may have to take it apart again, I usually sprayed the shaft with WD-40 and applied some grease or Never seize to the threads of the tie rod end. Being exposed to the elements , rust and corrosion make life difficult. A little grease ahead of time helps. 72 degrees F today and the blossoms of the sand cherries have exploded open from one day to the next !

    Good morning, Lumnahs! Day 15 of isolation for my 18 yr old granddaughter and me in B'ham, Alabama. Groceries are still being delivered, although it takes a day longer. No complaints, though. Flour, fresh meat and eggs are usually out of stock. I ordered almond flour as a substitute for wheat flour - lol. It's not a swap out. We are doing well, and strangely enough, are feeling more relaxed with day to day pressures relieved and more anxious knowing the entire world is engaged in this horrible disruption. I look forward to your videos, and thank you thank you for sharing.

    One option is to temporarily close off the front door of that side and put in a space heater to warm up the birthing stall, that you can seal the concrete, if you have to move Willow into it beforehand. If weather is iffy, and sometimes you have to do things to help it.

    At our supermarket (Phoenix AZ area) we were limited to only 2 loafs of bread and 2 half-gals of almond milk, plus they were out of a number of items.. but we were grateful for what we could purchase.. and have delivered, since I'm in the vulnerable category when it comes to taking any chances. All in all, supplies are still available and the delivery (young) guy told us he had a lot of work during this quarantine. Blessings to all those serving others during our nations time of need.

    Good morning fellow Phoenician. I'm in Ahwatukee and it's the same here. Panic buying continues to disrupt the supply chain. I was thinking it would settle down once everyone filled their freezers. Turns out people are just buying more freezers. Much like the empty TP aisle our local Spencers sent out a notice that they have no freezer units left in stock. Interesting times.

    No joke, folks...I know I say this over and over, but...watching y'all just gives me so much encouragement and hope--and gives me energy to go out and do something around my home place. I grew up on a registered Jersey cattle farm in Starkville, MS (home of MS State University) and all us children had plenty of chores to do. But, now that I'm retired (still do consulting, writing, and speaking, though) and don't have the farm animals and property to contend with--I still get inspiration from watching y'all. So, I began watching this video this morning, but paused it when I saw y'all working so hard on your property, so I took my 72-year-old self out to the garage and got everything tuned up, then went out and ran the weed eater and cleaned out a few flower beds. By the time I finished, my yard looked so much better. And, I did all that directly because I got energy from watching y'all. Major high-fives to all three of you! So thankful for you!

    I'm sure you are happy to have the tractor fixed now, one less worry. The stir fry looks so yummy Gina, made my mouth water. I have not been down to my grocery store, so not sure what the shelves look like. But from what I've heard, they are pretty empty around here as well, with two counties close to me shut down on lock down, schools all around have been shut down for about two weeks now. In my county they are asking you to stay home to prevent the spread, but don't seem like many doing that. My son has been working from home for the past two weeks. He had to go into town for gas so we could mow the yard, and said that the roads were as busy as always. We are staying home though except for the gas thing. Had our groceries delivered and couldn't get any stick butter, only margarine. Chicken was in slim supply too. Got frozen vegies, but not much fresh. So that is how it looks in our new normal. Stay healthy Lumnah family!

    Being retired teachers and still very healthy and active 60+ year olds, we haven't had much in our routine change. We usually have an extra of whatever we might run out of on hand and have just been making lists as we see things we may need in a week or so. We make one trip to the grocery store per week for those types of items and buy our meat and about 50% of our produce from the farmers market. It was a soggy rainy day today but the lines were properly spaced not that bad to get in to the market and get waited on by the vendors. It was not problem and everyone is quite cordial and helpful. Like some do at the drive-up window at Starbuck, at a egg and meat vendor I gave her enough money to pay for the next two folks in line requesting a dozen eggs. We get by with a little help from our friends. Peace to you and your family and keep own keeping on. Joy Giles

    I only had to use my stove a few times this winter. Don't think I went through half a cord. But, I do prefer a colder house to a hotter one. I only lit a fire if it was in the 20ºs out and/or low 50ºs in the house. I order my supplies for my donkey on Tractor Supply and the guy that leases my pasture for his horses picks up my order every Friday for me. I went to the store once and my husband went once. No bread, TP, meats, everything else is hit or miss. I have a prepper bucket of Italian food coming today. The weathers been good so it is all good. Blessings to all.

    I've found that if I go into town early in the am when I need groceries, shortly after the two grocery stores in my hometown open (one at 6:00 am, the other at 6:30 am) I get not only a much better selection, but far fewer people too be breathing around. As an added bonus, I discovered by getting there so early yesterday, Friday, that one of those stores gets their weekly supply truck in after closing Thursday night, and many employees are in and stocking shelves Friday morning. All the tuna was gone, for example, but when I was leaving that isle, here came a young lady pulling a cart with several cases on it. I got her to get me four cans out. I don't need to be a pig and horde stuff, but I'm sure there are some that would have just asked her for the cases. While I was in that store also, one of the bread company trucks pulled in to deliver as well. Same thing, a loaf was nice to see for a change. I did get two but didn't make a hog of myself. I don't think people are eating more, or pooping more, it's just that so many have 0 regards for the rest of the people in their community. The early bird gets the worm, I guess. I need to figure out now when the other store gets their supply truck - Most of us farmers are good at early, I've been up, done my chores, had a pot of coffee, and watched Al, all before the sun came up. Another bonus of farming is that I too supply my own milk and eggs, and still have quite a bit of beef, deer and elk meat from last Fall left - my egg intake is way up, but I'll worry about my cholesterol when the virus is gone. I've never raised hogs, but I wish I had, and now think I will next year.👩‍🌾

    Al, a lot of local farmers have gotten together and shared their crops with those in need. One of the great things about living on an island is that farmers get together and sell their produce at malls/shopping centers on certain days of the week to help small businesses. During this time of quarantine though, they have strategically planned to share what they have with their communities, whatever they have freely or even for $20 for a load of mixed groceries (eggs, fruits, vegetables, etc...) It's a blessing to see our communities in Hawaii come together and give to those who are struggling at this time.

    You are close to the virus centers. We are not that close. There have only been 2 cases confirmed in my county in Texas. And 2 in the county where I buy my groceries. So it is relatively safe in our neck of the woods. But we are still taking precautions to prevent the virus. My grandson is doing his college classes online. The large cities are the ones in Texas that have the most cases. We live 100 miles from most of them. You three take care and stay on the farm as much as possible. I love your vlogs.

I'm a retired RN in my mid 60's (high risk) so I'm limited in what I can do to help people. But I know how to garden!! Yesterday I had 7 yards of fine compost delivered, and received a mail-order box full of seeds--vegetables, beans, corn, herbs, etc. I have fig trees, a variety of berries, and many well-established grapevines. My home is on a good size lot, in the city limits. I hope to grow a 'food forest' this summer, with plenty to share with family, friends, and neighbors. I watch Lumnah Acres every morning BEFORE I watch the news. : ) A good way to start the day!!

    Gulf coast of Florida here. We have been unable to get chicken, bread and paper products in our grocery store. We have had to go to Sam's for them. My husband has to work because his company makes safety equipment, including pumps for ventilators. I worry about him being exposed to so many people every day...and bringing that home. I will not miss that.

    Mr Dio At a time like this, isn’t it better to be positive and supportive rather than negative and critical? Obviously you are experiencing some difficulties coping and need some uplifting yourself. If you can’t be supportive please don’t try to pull others down who are trying to stay positive and Helpful themselves. Al, don’t take this comment to heart. God bless each and every one of you.

    WELD a HD Flat Washer on she end of a HD bar/rod to make a seal remover tool. Weld the thick class 8 washer on a tilt. You can now use the washer/bar to hook the edge of the seal to push/pull the seal out. Old school trick.

    I just paid several hundreds of dollars to have this exact thing fixed on my Kubota. Watching you was so interesting and educational, I really think I could have fixed mine myself. My dad was a mechanic and I watched him my whole life, so it’s not so foreign to me. But...it was the middle of winter, I don’t have a warm work area, and don’t have all the finessing type tools like the ring pliers, etc. add to that arthritis in my hands, now I’m not sorry I paid to have it done. Today I get to reseat a tire that deflated and popped off the rim. I may not have your pink one but I do have a heavy duty ratchet strap and if that won’t work, I can use a chain. It’s good to know a thing or two right now. Blessings to your family!

    Good job Al, U saved some considerable money here as a DIY project. Definitely R&R the torn boot. Personally, on that metal to metal housing cover I would have applied a thin layer of black silicone & used some emery cloth on the spindle shaft seal areas. Run it for a bit & check your fluid levels again. Great job sir! The stir fry looked so good, except 4 the mushrooms, YUK! Today marks day ( 15 ) of " self isolation " for this Vermonter & I have to think about getting out for some groceries... The curve has NOT peaked yet, therefor I will wear a dust particle mask & rubber gloves ( it's all I have ) B4 getting out of the vehicle. I feel it is the responsible thing to do for my protection & that of others because the" Asymptomatic Carriers " are unknowingly spreading this virus around all creation currently. In other words, think smart & stay healthy... Bill on the Hill, Vermont... :~)

    Definitely order new inner tie rods. I would also switch to 80w90 in the front axle instead of UDT or the SUDT that you put in it. The 80w90 will hold better behind the seals. Also I think I seen you front axle pivot bolt needs to be adjusted or the bushingsneed to be replaced. I thought I seen your axel drop when you lifted the tractor up in the air.
