Flat Tire Farm - Homesteading Alaska
Flat Tire Farm - Homesteading Alaska
Hello! We are Reeve and Chrystal. In 2020 we moved to 40 acres of raw wilderness in rural Willow, Alaska. We hope you'll enjoy watching how we make life functional as we build our off-grid home and farm infrastructure, grow and preserve food, raise livestock animals, and work towards living a zero-waste life. Come along with us as we try find ways to be increasingly self-sustainable while also trying not to freeze to death on Flat Tire Farm.

Loved this! Got it all, gardening, farm chores, milking, cheese making, baking and…….DAD JOKES…it’s a WIN!
@@pamelabuchanan6710 yay!!! just missing one thing… Cookies!
Hopefully you try cover of like green beans to help.
I am so glad I found you. I have been considering canning some of my azure blue berries and strawberries. I would like less sugar in my strawberries, so don't know how I'll do that. I want some to add to my yogurt. And I try to not eat unnecessary sugar. But I'll think I'll have to use some for this.
@@elizabethhall1716 glad you found it helpful. Be blessed friend. 💕
Thank you so much for doing a step by step for making tallow. I feel a lot more confident attempting to make it! 🎉
@@ladyprepared 💕💕💕
You're going to have to get a bigger milking shed pretty soon. How is the outhouse? Any updates on it? Love the animals.
@@MyAlaska12 maybe someday we’ll need a bigger milking shed. But we can only milk one goat at a time right now. When we get like 40 goats, maybe then we’ll need a double milk stand. Ha! The outhouse is doing well… Sitting right where we left it. Ha! Thanks friend.
Oh those baby bunnies are soooo cute. Goats will eat dog food. I have to feed my guardian in a secret area so the goats don't eat his food. He also gets a fresh egg on his kibble too. It's his favorite. Those two pups are getting so well behaved because of your awesome training. farm cheese is sooo good. Looks wonderful
@@marlenereimchen9141 awww! Thanks friend! I think their favorite is when I pour whey over it. Ha! It’s like cereal for puppers. Ha!
Great job guys you are amazing lot work keep going stay safe love the video s
@@jasondavis1816 thanks friend
I Love you're Channel y'all are so cute and funny Keep up the good work and content God Bless Yall and keep you safe
Thanks friend, be blessed
How do you get the tallow out of the canning jars?
@@deborahhodge3186 I normally put it in 2 gallon square buckets to save for soap making, but for the purpose of this video I wanted to put it in jars so you all could see it cool and harden. Those jars I just put in the fridge and use for cooking and I get it out with a spoon. Be blessed friend.
❤❤❤ 🕊️
Why dont ye build a milking stand that holds the bottles
@@elizabethogrady5893 hey friend, we plan on building a lamb bar at some point, but one of the perks of purchasing one of our baby goats is that they very well bonded to people. So, hand feeding them gives them that strong connection to us. We will need to do that in the next couple years, though. When we have lots more babies! Ha!
❤❤❤
You are sticking your hand i dirt, refined dirt…. I won’t use citric acid in canning either. Tomato sauce tastes really bad that way.
Ha! Yes!
Ahhhhh I’m laughing so hard! Aaron knew the dad joke!😅
@@modernhomesteadalaska ha! I love it!!
I was looking for this. I’ve seen a lot of videos on how to preserve lemons, but very little on what to do with them afterwards
@@chelleyroberts yay!! That’s exactly why I made this video. 💕💕💕
Were those lemons dried, why did that look white?
@@elizabethgreen6770 yep. They were freeze dried lemons. 💕💕
I’m always sad when your videos end. Heading over to watch the cracker video. Thank you.
Thank you for a very uplifting, inclusive and delightful video. I enjoyed every minute of it. Y'all are way too funny. 😂😂😂 Btw, I heard of a free gravel pit in Alaska where you can go shovel up your own gravel, FOR FREE! It was in another video I watched but can't remember the name of the channel. I will try to find it to let you know.
@@IzzaMeanCat awesome! Thanks!
Every episode is filled with laughter, farming information and the best dad jokes ever! Tomato Survivor, lol. Thanks for sharing. Dee and Ace
Thanks for all your help friends!
I love yalls channel. Always so much fun to watch
Thanks!
I heard of a method of mosquito relief coffee grounds and cloves and burn a wick
That’s so cool it’s fast and easy
OMG such fun! I was tired watching just HALF the work you two did. Oh, I've got it ! Your farm life is like a daily 'Pick your adventure book' !!😁😂
@@MattsGarage1791 ha! Yes!
