    Seeing Joal with your kids is the most amazing thing. How many other 17 year old boys do you know that are that kind and tender to someone else's toddler aged children. Most are off doing their own thing. JOAL is as hard working as John is in every way. His parents must be so proud of the man he's becoming. Thank you, Joal, for your loving tenderness and time to your neighbors.

    It's so fascinating to see your projects developing and growing in ambition, while all your skills and know-how continue to grow to meet the new challenges. Hopefully you get moments to reflect on how far you've come and how much you've all grown. Your boys are extraordinary, and so advanced in everything they do, and it's beautiful to see how you've put down roots and got support from a community of neighbours, locals and friends. It's all quite amazing - more power to you!

I bet Crusoe has missed his gardening buddy, and I bet Joao has missed him too. Thank goodness that there are the easy jobs for when you are too tired - At least you can still feel you've been productive even if you feel like you aren't doing all that much, (there's a lot to be said for just feeling productive), and it was so nice for me to see you able to work out in the sunshine!

    Bienvenidos a casa !!!! Me gusta tanto vuestra granja como ver a vuestros niños crecer y observar como desarrollan habilidades. Crusoe es todo un ayudante. Maneja la hazada con habilidad y potencia. Es muy pequeño aún, pero ha pillado el concepto del trabajo. Gracias por vuestros videos Tara, John. Vuestra granja recibe mucho cuidado y amor y eso se nota. Un saludo desde España.

    I bet it feels so wonderful all the way down deep to your soul to be home. I so get it. As I was watching Sawyer and John by the spicket. I saw that Sawyer was not really putting everything in his mouth like a lot of little people his age seem to do. He seems to want to try to build or create with it like he see's his whole family does. And I think that is because he see's his big brother also participate in everything. It is just so awesome to see them develop, Crusoe has grown so much and now we get to see Sawyer too. Wow. You have a right to be so proud of what you have done with them.

    Welcome back family! It must be amazing to breath fresh air again. Indeed your farm is a heaven place. Crusoe’s language is remarkable- my favorite part was when he is digging the trench and tells John “daddy this is hard work I help you “ It must feel so surreal to have this place and see your children running and building. Have a wonderful week family! Love from Jersey-Mariana ❤

    Wonderful to see you back. I can't believe the weather, your last video there was really I'm guessing was only coming into winter, now it's spring, I could have cried with the feeling that came across, you can tell that the sun has strength in it, even before you said the temperature. I love spring the start of a new year were life starts to wake up again, you certainly have very short wires there,( should I re locate!) . Love the bare feet brigade , Crusoe is such a little worker, but kids love to help and be part of what your doing, they don't realise that they are learning so much, you are truly blessed with a wonderful family in a wonderful place, but in return you share it with us, so thank you.❤❤

    We put in a hose with little holes and an automatic (non electric) timer set for 20 MINS in the late afternoon and it made a huge improvement to the plants around a chalet in a very hot summer without having to think about it.
