It's just beautiful Jess. I'm so happy for you guys. Thank you for sharing. God bless you all.
Your farm has come so far! It’s a pleasure to see the growth. Thank you for taking us along on such an amazing ride.
Just want to say, Love yall. Always enjoy watching your videos! You are a great mom and wife. Down to earth and keeping it real. And your smile is contagious. Thanks for giving this Northern B.C/Canadian gal a channel I always have to watch!! ❤ keep up the good work!
aww look how little the boys were! They grow too fast!
When I saw Jess I was like "Oh, sweet baby Jess." and then I saw the boys… they've gotten so big!!!
Absolutely a beautiful video. You all have steward it so well.❤❤❤❤❤
Wow 🥰🥰 just wow 🥰🥰
Have y'all ever milked sheep? I was looking at getting sheep as our first farm animal. For milk and meat.
Beautiful, seems like yesterday 😂.
When you said, when you love things and see them as valuable and exercise gratitude, this struck a nerve. Thank you for all of your wisdom. You are truly a blessing just being you and sharing your life, it hits home and makes me change my mindset in a more positive direction.
What a great video! Thanks!
Seeing your dreams come to fruition must certainly be a wonderful feeling ! Congratulations on a job well done !
So proud for you both. My 56 acres are a bit much for me to do all by myself. My two oldest children have decided to move here to the farm and I’m ecstatic. Your journey is so inspiring.
Ha ha ha, we all know a garden is never, truly, finished 😂😂❤
BEST.VLOG.EVER
Loved the initial memory from 2021 first. My goodness, how much have the boys grown with the farm in just 4 yrs!
You said you'll do more stone fruit where the swales are. I learned the hard way not to plant peach trees near plum or prune trees. The former causes a gall to form on the branches of the latter called Peach Tree Rot, and it eventually kills the prune trees. Stinks cuz I love both fruits so much.
Miah sleeve is looking nice!

Why not some Baby Doll Sheep. Sought after wool , not destructive like goats. Or would they destroy the Orchard food forest?
❤
The pons makes the Land Beautiful kids will love fishing swimming. Start before snakes show up.
I started following you just before you moved to SC. When you announced your purchase of the property, I was like, “Oooh! She’s moving close to me (🤣like we were gonna meet one day. 💁🏻♀️wh knows? We might.). Anyways, y’all have done an amazing job, and I look forward to the future project you two share.
Can’t believe it’s bin 4 years feels like u just moved there !
Just beautiful.
Maybe build some small apartments on 3nd floor for returning kids along with office in workshop. Or just use 2nd floor as new house. It's big enuf.
What beautiful progress! Will you plant muscadine plants or from seed? I’ve never seen them planted and I would love to do that at my house. I love a muscadine!
The cottage garden is just stunning
🥰🥰🥰
Miah…Wow, what a man!
Beautiful couple you are.
You’ve created a paradise.
Congratulations. Prolific on every level.
So inspiring. I’ve been following since 2020 and experimented in a community garden on the coast of Oregon❤
Jess and Miah, would you please consider showing the fence and paddock process in detail. I would love to see that process. Your land is very pretty. Thanks for sharing.😊
It’s how you connect with your kids for me. Ditto!! 💚
What were some of the biggest challenges you faced during this transformation? Any advice for beginners?
Any word on what’s happening with the homestead store?
Thank you for sharing. Such a beautiful testament to hard work and the Lord's blessings. ❤
What can I say, other than it's just been such a wonderful, beautiful journey y'all have been on. I thank you immensely for sharing it with us!
Do you have a Basement or cellar in case of a tornado? After being hit by 3 hurricanes directly last summer i wondered about safety in your home during a tornado or hurricane.
So much growth!!! The boys and the tree 🥹❤️
Beautiful and Heartwarming. This soothes my soul. Many thanks and Blessings to Your Family
a masterpiece!
Thanks for the comparison video I’ve been waiting for this! 😂 Can’t believe it’s already been 4 years, feels like yesterday you sat down in your announcement video. I have watched the “reveal video” more times than I can count. Thank you for sharing this journey with us.💖💖💖
It is remarkably wonderfully the family farm! Bravo to you all. All of your family has had a hand in crafting the homestead. You have a promising future. Can't wait to see the building of that timber framed shop too. Glad Jeremiah's sister will be moving to the homestead property. Glad you have that camper! Happy to see how much that special willow tree did grow.
Thank you for that wonderful tour. I have followed you for years and it’s beautiful what you and your family have created . You are blessed ❤
Holy Moly you’ve come along way! I think the thing that has changed the most, is your boys. They have really grown over 4 years. Your place looks GREAT! ❤
This is a home and farm built with love. ❤ It's refreshing to see you and Miah taking on all the hard tasks with such vision and confidence. Blessings to you all! Thank you for sharing with us.
Wow the boys were so little so happy for you guys you are so blessed. Thank you for sharing with me ❤❤❤
soooo much progress!! is that a misty mountain in the background at 22:13 or just a foggy tree line. also, loved seeing gabriel. please do a video filling us in on all the doggos and cats and how they're all doing. that would be great. ty.
HOW HAS IT BEEN FOUR YEARS??!!! Goodness. Couldn't be happier for you and your family.
Wonderful video, I'm glad I saw the end with the pasture. It was in my head the whole time, how did it develop? It's unbelievable how much space you have. I live in Germany, and the plots here are so much smaller.
Wonderful recap of the last 4 years. Such great accomplishments & now good health & more to look forward to! Those young ones are sure growing up & have a wonderful life! Blessings & thanks for sharing! 🤗🇨🇦🌻
We started with raw land, too. We were much slower due to SSDI Multiple Sclerosis for me & a broken back for hunny. 2 kids.
