No Cheese?

Nope. We can guy organic raw cheese from artisans easily and fairly inexpensively. Can't buy raw organic milk, cream, yogurt, or ice cream though. That's our priorities. Grow the healthy foods we can't access.
Your mother in law is such a hard worker, she always seems to be hard at work 😅
I have been wondering what you guys manage to do with over 20 gallons every week. Very nicely done. I love that you use every ounce for the benefit of your family and your livestock.

Thank you!
LIVIN the Dream 💭 🙌🤙. Growing your own food is like printing your own money 💰 Inspiring all around 🙌🤙✊
So "cultured cream" is basically " sour cream" in the common vernacular?
Awesome guys. Between the edible dairy products, the waste skim for pig food, the meat you can get from their calf each year, and the manure. It just makes my head spin how much money you are making by not having to buy all that stuff from the store. I know its a lot of work but I agree Justin it seems well worth it. Happy mothers day Rebekah.
Your a lucky man Justin, happy Mother’s Day Rebecca.
I always feel warm and fuzzy when a video has the kids in it. They are very special.
You're making me REALLY want a cow. I live in the city :-/
Happy Mother's Day. That's a lot of milk. Thanks for welcoming us into your home and sharing your adventures / chores with us.
Thank you for this. We have plans to move out of the city and start our own small homestead. To say I'm nervous and a bit overwhelmed about it would be an understatement. Seeing informative videos like yours, real life, is helpful and gives me encouragement that this city girl will be able to live a farm life.
Absolutely Ace justin, you can't beat proper homesteading like you guys are doing, keep it up just awesome
I was really looking forward to this video and it exceeded my expectations! So much info! I liked the anecdote about the old timey photo, and the abrupt ending was perfect.
Can you do a video reviewing your cold room? How has helped with what produce, the disappointments? I'm particularly interested in vegetable storage, what's the reality in storing compared to your expectations (eg- squash, carrots, etc).
You guys are amazing! Someday I hope that we can become this self sufficient!
My herbs have sprouted in my vanlife herb garden... Growing where I can ♥️♥️😁

Seven minutes in and Im already drooling watching that cream! Bread toasts, cream and some bee honey on top... awesome video Justin and family!
Thank you so much for these videos, folks! It really helps keep people like me sane while trying to go down this same path!
I use an Instant Pot to make yogurt- It's great!
When you work with Nature,you can not go wrong.Good video!!
Homestead goals! 💯
Hey Justin just letting you know I finally found your channel again after about 2 or 3 years back when y’all were still making the rv and you’ve inspired me to start my own garden finally so thank you personally hope your having a good day!!

Hey Justin Watching You every day, Shout out from Sri Lanka
Great explanation! I had no idea how efficient a family farm could function. Hard work yields incredible results.
We've lived in Normandy,France for the last 15years now,(moved from London,UK). The French are like Eskimos and have 57 different words for "milk" and it's derivations, (don;t even get me started on the cheeses!). I'm still trying to decided what cultured cream would be! Creme Fraiche seems to be the closest, but not sure.......
to my Treasured Rhodes Family, Much Thanks for sharing Life on the Farm. The planet is hopefully paying attention, I am !! I even get a live update on my weather 3, 5-6 hours after it passes you. We are in the Boston burbs, where only multi-millionaires have a farm.
Very informative. I had never been exposed to that info. Understand your dedication to your bovine family now. That cool room really makes a difference for you. Thumbs up for all the hard work it takes. It may be "free", but the entire family has a part in the production. Do your kiddos recognize the difference in their life style?
Loved this video! I wanted to see how Rebekah processed all that milk. Farming is not an easy job but the rewards are worth it! Thanks Justin!!
Love your videos justin! Keep up your springtime grind!!
Hey Justin, what I do to make yogurt is to use what was left from the last batch. I heat the milk to 200 degrees in a large pan and let it cool to 110 degrees and add the left over yogurt. If you want thicker yogurt you can add powdered milk. Mix well and place in a cooler that is lined with a thick blanket at the bottom. I then fill a large plastic bottle or pan with hot water from the tap and place that into the cooler as well. Then wrap it with more thick blankets and close the cooler, I also like to put blankets over the cooler to keep in as much heat as well. Leave it over night and it should be done. I prefer this method as it saves on the electricity and you don't have to keep changing temperatures.
This was SUCH A GOOD VID! THANK YOU! YOU are priceless!
Indeed it is priceless 💕 all fully homegrown on your farm wow.
Happy Mothers Day to The Beautiful One!!! 🌸🌺

Great video! Love the look into cream separating day and All the milk!
Hey Justin you really got a great cycle going there. No wastage! Try making some cheese?
You forgot to mention that Teddy and the cats ; lika the milk too.
I was thinking that you could do the same but soak scratch grains for chickens in skim milk. I think that is the way that Bresse chicken is finished. I think that would make some really great meat chickens.
I pay $15 a gallon for raw milk where I live.

Worth every penny considering how much work it is.
I find keeping Chicken a real demand. Doing the same with Cows is no joke. I love your content and what you are teaching farmers. I do the same with Chicken Farmers. Keep it up
Amazing video reminds me of when I was little. Bless you guys.
Love it. Thanks for the content! I might have missed it but are you guys selling these things you get from the farm?
Love your channel!!!
Thanks for the video homeboy
Awesome supply of milk and milk products in your family is all the sweet fruit of your labour.
Love the video keep doing what your doing
you should be able to strain Yogurt by hanging it in a cloth over the sink to get it thicker. Thats how they make greek style yougurt, they drain it more.
Raw milk cost 18.99 a gallon at a market in San Francisco, CA
Happy Mothers Day, Rebekah!
Butter and ice cream would be great not to mention cheese. Sure is a lot of work justin. Please wish Becca a happy mother's day
Thanks Justin greetings from Germany

Happy mother's day from the Delgadillo family to yours. My family and I enjoy your videos this is awesome hello all the way from california👍
Your videos are resourceful for my project.
You don't have to put yogurt in dehydrater. My mom just warms the milk and adds just tablespoon of previous culture to it to prevent it to be too much sour. She just puts in warmer location over night and in the morning thick yogurt is formed.
Great video, well done. Thanks!

What’s the difference between making cultured cream vs yogurt?
Do you guys have a PO box so we can send a few things for the awesome kiddos?
Happy Mothers Day Rebekah🌹
Love it, that's a lot of good stuff. We went with smaller cows (Dexters) because my wife and I just can't consume that much and no pigs yet to assist. Any "Justin Wizard Math" to determine what and how many cows a family might need on a homestead? That information correlates to acreage and pastures required to grow healthy animals. So, I need a half acre per cow; 1 bull, 1 cow, 1 steer, and 1 baby = 2 acres per pasture. If I only have 3 acres how can I supplement their diet to maintain the health of the cow? Thanks again, have a beautiful Sunday!
Make cheese, yogurt 😋, cottage cheese, ice cream, butter or teach how to do those things as a church social? Good thing the kids know at to do with it, lol! OK make a white Russian mixed drink? I would love to see the cheese making...buy it. Yumm! We ate cornbread & milk too. Such a lovely way of life that is possible. Hey, Happy Mother's Day!
to all the mother you dont have to be the greatest mom in the would to be a mom ily so much just know ily
You guys need a Instant pot. You can do your Yogurt in it also! It is a game changer for sure!
Happy Mother’s Day Rebekah

Finally a comparatively short video
What would the flavor difference be. Between cultured butter and sweet cream butter?
Love this! Can you say which type of butter (cultured or sweet cream) is more similar to a store bought butter? Thank you for doing this video.
@theJustinRhodesShow

In the store, cultured butter would actually be labeled cultured. If it's just labeled butter then it's from sweet cream.
I would love to do what yall do. So awesome
Your kids will be very smart because them can drink true milk everyday 🥰
Thank you! Very enlightening! :-)

To make our yogurt thicker we strain it until it is as thick as we like.
Wow... you got me rethinking milk cows.
Does she ever make cottage cheese?

Great vid, thank you, Justin! The yogurt-making process, rather than "starter" culture, have you all tried Kefir Milk Grains to culture your milk? (healthier yogurt and kefir cheese are some of the results, in addition to whey, which some dry out for protein powder). Just wondering.
For making perfect yogurt first boil the milk then cool it a little bit not fully cool down it should me not warm but not too much hot then add 2 to 4 tbsp of previous yogurt and put it in warm place for 5 to 6 hours and then put it in the refrigerator overnight and you will get perfect yogurt like the store one
Love from kerala❤
First comment Justin can you make a video about plan of your house if you have any or is there already a video of that? cheers
Love you so much
Cutest kiddos ever!
Lily is alot like me when ever you offer me food i will eat it
Butter milk with mint and spice it's yummi.
I agree with you. I am a strong dairy fan. I'm 72 and healthy and I believe in large part it's because of the organic milk and dairy products I eat. I can't tolerate raw milk because where I get it here in Italy, I'm not so sure I'm buying it fresh enough. My neighbor boils it, but then what's the use of that? Anyway, if I was younger and had a husband, haha, you bet I would have a cow haha. For real.
Where do buy your glass jars ?? Thanks.
How long does your cow stay in milk after weaning the calf? I enjoy your videos. Thanks

We dry her off two months before she gives birth to her next calf. Then she calves and we're in milk again!
