I love creating the videos, as a part of this difficult adventure; made possible by Patreon friends.
Come along on this journey by watching our videos, where we share the excitement of farming, building, growing, and learning together. From exploring permaculture and survival techniques to immersive tours and practical methods, there’s something for everyone to enjoy and learn from

New plans for the goats require new animal enclosures, a rotation plan and new strategies for extra herds here at the new part of the farm we are developing. There's also some wood cutting for our food fires, using the battery powered chainsaw and a few other things in this video, just for you. Radishes from the crop circle? Done. Grazing a Nigerian Dwarf Goat herd on foot? Done. I hope this slightly different format works for you. Stay simple and safe, friends. Come on, be one of those guys.... https://www.patreon.com/simple_earth #simpleearth #selfsufficiency #homestead #goatfarming
Much farm randomness, because some weeks are just that. (update 1 - July 2024)
Hello everyone Meet another new born goat kid. Grace! This one comes from our black locus bearing doe, Lana. Sadly, she cannot develop milk for it due to an injury. So we have to bottle raise Grace, or she will die. First she needs to get colostrum/bioglobin as soon as possible after birth, and then frequently during the first few hours (even though the dam may have provided her with proper immunity, we still have to do a little bit of this). Following colostrum, a lamb/kid milk formula does the rest for her. As of uploading this video, she is already a couple of days old and doing very well! She's named after the irish pirate queen Grace O'Malley =) Patreon members get extra stuff, and early too. It also helps me create new videos! https://www.patreon.com/simple_earth #simpleearth #selfsufficiency #homestead #offgrid
Kid Goat - Baby Grace | We had to intervene to save her
Hello again! I am constantly monitoring and assessing the use of our water, not only for quantity but quality. This is to preserve the health of our animals, as well as our soil. We have a little bit of a sodium issue, so in this episode we talk about that a bit. Secondly, we look at using acetic acid (vinegar) as a natural modifier for water pH and to help with calcium carbonate scaling. Let's learn about a few things, what we can do, and why not to panic when water parameters seems a bit wild. Remember to always purify and filter your water. For things like sodium, you may want to distill or use reverse osmosis. Always consult an actual chemist or professional (because I'm neither of those) =) Patreon members get extra stuff, and early too.
