Welcome to Modern Homestead Alaska! We are large family taking on a "modern" Homestead in the beautiful state of Alaska.
A modern homestead is a place that lives in between the old ways and the new. Modern in use of running water indoor plumbing and electricity, access to health care and services like shopping and eating. Modern in road access and ease of travel. But it keeps the old ways or living in many of them. No service for things like gas or propane. Heating with wood and cooking with fire. Well water and septic on site, harvesting heating wood from the land, fishing, hunting and growing food. Bulk shopping of the most basic homestead supplies. Cooking from scratch and taking very little help from the store. Staying away from pre packaged processed and foods with no value. We make exception (that’s the modern part)!
It’s spending the day physically working hard, playing hard and kicking your feet up listening to the sound of the fire crackle knowing you earned the rest.

After I got over long haul Covid, it's not that I couldn't eat beef but I can't touch it or even look at it raw. Just turns my stomach. Good thing my husband does 98% of our cooking...lol. New subscriber.
Oh no! That’s so hard. WELCOME
In regards to not being able to drill a well, what do you mean by the "quality of the water". Surely it can be filtered to remove any contaminants.
The nearest well is so full of oil it has cost the owner 60k so far and they still don’t have useable water. To be honest we had never heard of such a thing until we had 3 well drillers come over and all 3 said we can’t drill drinking or useable water in this specific area. Trust me 1000% we wouldn’t do it this way if we had any other choice.
Wow your amazing! Does anyone in the family ever help you with batch cooking?
Oh yes if I’m not filming it’s a family affair.
Great job Jessica! I love that grill. Hope you get lots of strawberries!
Thank you so much ☺️
You good always look so-o good!! I’d like to swipe a bowl of each one!! You are a huge part of a wonderful family!! 💜😋👋🏻
Jessica!! Ok how cute is your grandma!! Everything looks beautiful in your front entrance. Beautiful!!
Jessica I’m growing watermelons for the first time and I have a big but next to it was another growing just fine but then it shriveled up, should I remove it from the vine?
Yes anything dead is just taking from the plant. I even cut yellow or dead leaves
@@modernhomesteadalaska ok great , and thanks
Great vid Jessica!
Have u ever heard of putting a fish head in the holes for your plants?
Hello to your family, so nice to see you working together on your projects. This is Dianna from Texas. Alaska trip is on my bucket list.
Beautiful Dog !!!!! 👍👍🙏🐶
No habías preparado unas comidas en el freeze dryer para llevar en estas ocasiones??????
Tea; that is a good idea!!!
We MISS Darigold!!!! ;( lol
Interesting fact for me and Wagyu; it is the only red meat that i can eat in steak form that doesnt make my stomach acid go nuts. Even USDA makes my throat feel like it is closing
So about $8.20 (USD), about $13.50 (NZD) kg of NZ lamb, you know we pay between $16.99 (NZD) on a good day and $25 (NZD) usually for this IN New Zealand! You buy our meat cheaper than we do...... and, it will be export quality while we get the seconds, hard to figure how all that works eh :)
Nice looking strawberries. Interesting, didn't know that about the coconut core thing.
Jessica, your family is amazing, you and Aaron are doing a fantastic job raising responsible, caring and hard working people. I don’t know why, but I can’t stop watching your channel. Thank you for your work sharing your lives.
Thank you so much for this it’s so very kind
Man you guys love beans!! Jeez
Omg! So much! Ate them the last two nights and 4 days last week!
Existen baterías para recargar portátiles 😅
Me encanta que esta nueva del canal cuente con más apoyo de Aaron, es bueno verle participar PORQUE LA UNIÓN HACE LA FUERZA. Un consejo: si los más jóvenes no desean aparecer en los vídeos QUE NO LO HAGAN, ES SU DECISIÓN, pero por favor, cuando aparezcan que NO PONGAN MALAS CARAS o que por lo menos NO SE NOTE DEMASIADO que aparecen por obligación. A nosotros nos gustan Jessica y Aaron con TODA LA FAMILIA, pero si eso no es posible, es mejor que no aparezcan a verlos obligados. Es solo un consejo, no una crítica ❤
Happy birthday Jessica❤ ésta decisión me imagino que estuvo basada en la perdida del trabajo de Aaron😢 tiempos mejores vendrán
Never knew Alaska was a mosquito haven; good to know.
If by you want to swing by my place next time your in anchorage I dont have a huge amount. It I do have quite a lot of rock you can grab
Love your garden! Centrolla plants works for mosquito control. I have them at my doorway. I have them at my patio 100%. They do work for the mosquitoes. God bless you and your friend thank you.
Cut the wings, done
Your such a good mother and wife always taking care of your family ❤️
Your grandma seems so timid, so glad she has you.
Does your dog get mosquito or tic bites?
Lol Stubby beer bottles??? From Ontario Canada 🍁
Tea tree oil also in the oil pot by the front door
Love your channel.
If you don't cut them wings on them you ain't going to never keep them in the pen girl I got nine of them I know exactly what you're talking about they're a pain in my ass
That little old lady is so cute 🥰 did you say that was your grandmother. I love when your husband is on there he makes it I love you but he's he's just funny to me
On the large 50# bags we sealed all but the last 1/4 so we were ahead of the game. Then drop the O2 absorbers in and hit with the iron on the last section. This makes the O2 absorbers open to air for a much shorter time.
Amo Kroger❤
Eso no es HORCHATA, eso es CHICHA DE ARROZ, la HORCHATA ES ESPAÑOLA y se prepara con una especie de fruto seco que solo se da en España que se llama CHUFA❤
It really looks nice. It’s amazing what a little paint and soap will do. Love all the planters
Use a coffee grinder for powdered sugar.
Is there really a way to be any cooler than having a grill mounted to the back of your boat? I don’t think so…
lol I don’t think there is! Can’t wait for breakfast on the boat!
Canning if no freezer dryer would you use dehydrator
My entryway says, look, my grandkids are here 5 days a week. Lol. Wouldn’t have it any other way. I love your entry, even the steps, they fit with the Homestead vibe. Your Gma is beautiful, God bless you.
Where did you get that white planter with herbs? On the porch. How cleaver is that.
Aron you make the best meats in smoker,
The entry way looks so nice and fresh. Love how young grandma are planting her flower bed that she can enjoy from her window.
Great tour! I hope you have a huge harvest!
Beautiful! And the garden looks good too! 😉Nice job friend!
