Homesteading is not just about growing your own food or chickens. It is a whole new way of life. In this video I explain some of the things that Homesteaders do that different from others.

Rain has been very scarce so far this year. Fire bans keeping us from enjoying bon fires.
YOUR homesteading includes harassment drones. No thanks.
You're doing fine Troy. You have a lot of skills and you have made a home place for your family. Your rich in life, you have a roof over your head and food on your table and a belief in our Lord. Its a hard life and you tackle problems head on.

Though this isn't a prepping video… This brings us back to an earlier debate about the usefulness of working with metals. And while it may be great for a second income, It would really be useful in a long term emergency where the poop hit the fan. However, as I tried to point out, survival would be difficult under such conditions. Today's video proves another point… The difficult growing conditions in your area. Can you really survive off of only plants that grow in your area? And for heating… You would be reduced to processing firewood with an axe! Which is the reason why I only prep for short to medium term emergencies. Where civilization can recover from a disaster. Simply due to the difficulty of long term survival.
Troy homesteading is also whatever you want it to be and you shouldn't owe anyone an explanation because it takes a lot of courage to do what you, period! I have been watching your videos for years and I have come to appreciate your videos because it is a unique window into your self life experience surrounding your definition of homesteading and more…..Thank you for sharing!
Don't stop showing smelting videos…I like em…i like the diversity of your channel…life is diverse…love your raspberry patch…would love to watch you forge…i have patreon… always get notified by them
OK
Have lots of constructive ideas but refrain from commenting because any constructive comments or ideas seem to get deleted or blocked, gotta break and change them paradigms sir.
THIS.. is like first time you talked about water.. I do not know why you do not have a half inch lines and sprinkler systems.. and putting out a run toward the orchard. … Supplying this water once you find the lowest place on the property and put a test pawn utilizing a rented excavator or backhoe Ultimately to experiment with soil in water tension. That is how long will the water stay and not leach into soil. You have the tractor you just need a dump bucket on the back and pull the cord to dump the soil. Indeed a tractor attachment yet lots of people proclaim it needs a sod ripper.
You got my hopes up for a small barn seeing that square in that pile.
3. On watering for garden.. I am experiment with this micro wandering.. a smaller semi-flexible black.. but with common 40 PSI.. I managed on over 100 ft reach.. and it was trickling Non-Stop. On my porch for watering my porch plants i've had six sprinklers micro sprinklers on one line.. they also make these lines are something like 1/4 inch.. not knowing your water situation. If you have an active faucet this would be a cheap way to make a long run.. providing that long run needs to be absent of water in the winter time.. routing the lines so it won't get punctured by traffic.. needs some thought. But indeed these smaller lines can water trees.. with some minor attending mostly making sure they spray so all the sprayers in the run will work. You can also shut off sprayers on a run to go further out.

Troy, I enjoy your videos so keep doing as you are doing. I like the diversity of what you are showing. I have to agree that YouTube is not as good as it used to be. I am watching this now after it has been up for 10 hours. There are 29 comments listed, yet YouTube is saying at the top of the comments that there are 0 comments. Also, I have clicked the bell to receive all notifications, yet that doesn't always happen. Hang in there, Troy. You will continue to succeed despite the naysayers, negative people, and YouTube's tendency to be less and less user friendly.
We are in the 90's here. After weeks of below normal temps. we are now well above normal.
