Welcome! I'm Ariel. Along with my husband Clay, our dogs, cats, bees, & some poultry, we live in a tiny house nestled into a high mountain valley in western Wyoming & are working on settling into our own little homestead. Come along as we work to help an abused piece of land become productive once again for us, our animals, & wild things too. We try to share real life here. The good & the bad. The ups & the downs. What works & what doesn't. The parts we love (most of it!), & the things that suck. Not just the romantic idea of "homesteading" or tiny house life, but everyday details. We split wood for heat, get gravity fed water from a spring, use a composting toilet, & attempt to produce as much of our own food as possible. We hope others can learn from our mistakes & to make life just a little easier for anyone else interested in pursuing similar goals. We live in a fairly harsh & cold climate, but enjoy the stunning scenery & wildlife that we are surrounded by. We're glad you're here!

I Love the new Garden beds ! They also will make it easier on your back for weeding .
Cool project! Thank you for sharing!
Here's a variety of cantaloupe for you developed here in Minnesota by the U of M in 1947 called, of all things, Minnesota Midget! Produces 4-6 inch fruits, golden yellow fruit, and an edible rind. Good choice for northern gardeners. Like sunshine and can stand cool nights. (When frost was predicted, I covered mine with old sheets that I bought at garage sales) 60 to 70 days to harvest. Some northern gardeners have gotten 2 crops in one season. They love containers. They are fabulous! So dang tasty!
While I loved your tiny house, your channel seems more like the Fy Nyth Homestead now.
What a super idea ,your soil looks great .♥️🇨🇦
Seeing you sifting that soil felt a bit close to home this week as I just put a couple of fruit trees in (I don't think they'll do well, but I wanted a corner cleared) and to do so dug out any amount of glass, pottery, well-rotted barbed wire and two three-foot-by-seven sheets of heavy gauge corrugated iron! What the previous owner was thinking I don't dare think...
What a wonderful home you have there. Looking forward to following your progress in building out your permanent home. My spouse and I live a (relatively) minimal lifestyle in a small apartment in Santa Monica, Los Angeles.
Not sure where my original comment went, so I'll post again how exciting this is and how awesome it is that you're trying corn. Yay!🎉
Your "camp" is bigger than my apartment and with more comforts😅
Great video-love your channel. Best wishes for a great summer! 😁
I use smart water with electrolytes for leg cramps…works!
What a well thought out project. Do you two approach projects similarly? Curious how the project germination and development goes ... all in the easy chairs in the evening? Spit balling vs analytical?
❤
I love your beds and I bet they'll do well for you! I'll be watching this space!!! <3
First time with single wheels its hard to control, feel i drunk behind steer 🥲😅🙏🏻
Amazing project guys! Good to see the chickens enjoying the soil heap too. Looking forward to seeing how your plants thrive. Take care. Sid and Nicola, Rugby UK
ARIEL & CLAY, You Two Are a LOVELY Couple!!
I LUV you folks & ALL your AMAZING PROJECTS!! The Dynamic DUO : ) : ) 💕 💞 💓 💝 💘👩❤👨 🐓🦆🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤
With the Video SPED UP it is hysterically Funny watching the Chickens in the background running around at warp speed! LOL : )
Did you try any tomatoes?
Great project….i look forward to seeing what you can grow there😀🤓😀
Thank you.
Hi again ARIEL You've always had super projects and this one is going to be a really good one after the kinks are worked through. Perfect location and will be very pretty also when flowers and others are filling in. Looking forward to watching the process. Blondie and Clay are just the cutest. She's the smartest chicken for sure lol! Thx as always for sharing. Yay for spring and summer!
Nice beds
Oh great idea! I'm also in Wyoming we are at 7000 ft I'm so going to try this, thank you for sharing!
👍😎🇨🇦🌱🌸
Great idea!
Does the snow shed on that side ?
Do they get hot to touch on the sides? They are very ncie looking. 💕💕🎶🎶
Great job. Looks very good against the building.
We have the same planters and are on year 3 and working great for just us 2 old folks. Just watch the sharp edge on the top and even use a bit of glue on the rubber.
She is very anal smart, but l can still relate to her even throw I'm a moron. That's a gift.
It sounds like a good plan. Time will tell as they say.
that whole side would make a great green house...is it something you are planning in the future, or do you have a different green house idea in mind??
Good idea. Everything is always an experiment. Watermelon in that climate would be amazing.
So clever! As soon as I saw the thumbnail I thought what a great opportunity you were making to get a little microclimate going there! It will be interesting to see how you maximize your growing zone with this space.
Love your planters. Blondie and Clay are best buddies. Hope your planters are bountiful. Take care.
Love the new planters. I had thought about those. Can't wait to see outcome!
They look great! And Blondie, awe. :D
When you buy quality you only have to buy it once 🙂
Blondie and Clay - a romance for the ages !
So cool!
Nice planters. I have netting to keep the deer away from my juicy little plants. Do you have deer problems or does Burly keep them away? Do I spot something else growing? 😉
Thank you for sharing ❤. I enjoyed the video. I love pet chickens and they have their own personalities and recognize our voices.😊
A viking ship with a Danish flag? Longhouse in the future? 🙂 I'm sure the cats helped, or at least provided moral support 🐱
That was much better. Thank you for reloading the video.
That is a lot of work and a great workout! Firstly you must have a lot of energy and time to operafe it. However it surely gets the clothes very clean. Personally i would prefer to wash my clothes the old fashioned way by using a brush and rinse in the bathroom. I guess it would be much much faster. Appreciate your video especially of how much water you have saved.🎉
Great video and a whole lot of work! Kudus to both Clay & Ariel. Wishing you all the best!
some rigged plastic and you could have tomatoes :)
Good to see your new living space. Enjoy your lovely cozy home andmost of all be happy! ❤
