Love your videos. I noticed at the entrance, grass/weeds are invading your gravel driveway. Here is a remedy that is environmental friendly. Vinegar, salt, and dish soap Mix one gallon of white vinegar, one cup of salt, and one tablespoon of dish soap in a spray bottle. Spray the leaves and stems of the weeds. The acetic acid in vinegar breaks down cell walls, and the salt and dish soap draw moisture from the weeds.

[@theoriginhomestead]

Thank you so much ❤

[@jennyjohnson9012]

Nothing like jacket potatoes from a fire. Made my mouth water. Enjoyed the video as always. Sending love xx

I can actually see that the stress has disappeared from your faces. The difference between when you left this last time and now is so incredible. It just makes me smile to see you rebooted and jumping back in! Way to go!!

Hey Leanna we agree we defo have a diffrent mindset to enjoy more and just see what happens last time around we where putting to much pressure on ourselves so thanks for noticing and been so nice 💚

The walls in the barn are going to look great. Whoever initially built the barn did an amazing job with those rocks. It is a big barn. The land looks so good and nice to have that warm weather.

[@theoriginhomestead]

Hey Virginia hope you having a lovely week and we agree. The barn also is a lot bigger then it looks on the camera :) Sending you lots of love ❤

[@henrykenson5547]

Hi, Laura & Dan; Use the ashes as fertiliser for yours fruit and olive trees. Spread them around about 2 feet from the tree trunk. This will inverse fruits productions . I do this for my apple and pear trees. All the best to you.

Hey Henry nice to hear from you and we agree something we always true there so great. Thanks for sharing and all the best to you too 💚

[@christophercarpenter8031]

The best way I find to fill in rendering the wall if you get a heavy plastic bag & put your mix in the bag & cut the corner of the bag & just think of you putting icing on a cake it’s the same way in doing it & then rub it down with a damp sponge it might help you in pointing between the walls & get though it quicker hope that helps & great work to both of yous too

[@theoriginhomestead]

Hey Christopher thanks for sharing we have tried and just didn't work for us took longer to refill and so messy. A sponge is great idea will give it a try. Thanks for helping and been so nice 💚

I wonder if you could make that mortar a little bit thinner and put it in a heavy duty polythene bag, cut the corner off and squeeze it into the gaps, then push it in and smooth off with a paintbrush

[@church8042]

Laura & Dan, hello sweet friends! I pray you both are well. 🙂The gate upgrade is so nice. I like how you find time to complete upgrades. It is so nice to have the cement floor when you have to pressure wash. You can easily wash all that debris right out the door! Pretty nifty! Thank you for your honesty about pointing. God bless you both for your patience and persistence. The fireside chat was lovely as well. Your chats are my favorite part of all your videos. I imagine some day in the future you telling your children about your adventures and hard work. They can also watch the videos of Mum and Dad working so hard and sharing their hearts with others. Thank you for the inspiration, the healing, a moment in time spent with you both, and working for our Lord. In my prayers and love in Christ. ~John Psalm 19:14 NKJV "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer."

[@theoriginhomestead]

Hey John always lovely to hear from you :) yea the jet was is so good and we love using it so satisfying. Glad you enjoy the chats we will share more in other videos for sure.

For free the hinges did a GREAT job! They got you through the spot you needed them to any way. I travelled all over the world in the Air Force and done way more than most people, but I don't recall ever smelling an olive branch burn... Does it have a unique smell like pine, oak or cedar?

Something that may help with the fence is a wheel for the bottom. It will take some of the weight off the hinges. I love you guys. You are Amazing. Keep up the great work!❤

[@theoriginhomestead]

Hey Jean thanks for sharing the great idea and for the lovely comment 💚

[@johnh9748]

Compost compost compost. It is always a good idea to get into a composting cycle so you can return all those nutrients back into the soil. I have a 2.5 acre homestead and we build compost bins and bio reactors to put all of that back into the land. While it may not be in your budget, mulching those limbs and putting them back around the base of the trees will make them VERY happy...plus it will help choke out weeds around the trees, leaving all the goodies for the trees to enjoy. Also look into making a charcoal retort. The charcoal can REALLY help your soil become self-sustaining and live with beneficial microbes and things.

[@theoriginhomestead]

We agree thanks for sharing ❤

[@patrickdunn9894]

Hi Patrick Dunn here from Wisconsin, looking at the holes in your stone walls. I think if you were to box each one and frame and level each one they would be charming display units! Just a thought 💭

Hello young people, why don't you build a wooden building and windows around 2 sides of the stone hut. There would be a living room, kitchen and bathroom.

[@rolandclass8418]

Hi Guys, hello from Canada, nice to see you back, nice job with the wall, hey about burning, clippings, get your self a shredder and use it as a ground cover around your trees, not a to large circle but enough to give back to the trees what they used from the soil they are growing on, so it is a good fertilizer and ground over for shading in a hot climate even the ashes from some of the stuff you still might burn also good fertilizer, and burning is not cool anyway, a lot of pollution for the atmosphere, avoid burning as much as you can, if you like the look of it very small fires give you the same pleasure, and by the way fires can start much bigger fires, even not wanted

[@theoriginhomestead]

Hey Roland nice to hear from you and thanks for lovely comment. We priced one up but they are too expensive out hear :( and just not worth the price. We used some of the larger ones for firewood and some for compost. Its out of fire season now so not possible. Thanks for watching ❤

Guys not sure if you use this already, but i always use the Kärcher Rotating Dirt Eater Nozzle 180 bar. This nozzle is bad ass, if removes the skin from your body. Just a tip in case you don't have it yet. It's an real upgrade and nothing to compare with. Also don't forget the Gardena combo system Telescopic Fruit Picker, we also use it for our own fruit trees, my wife has a serious rheumatic condition but this tool does wonders for her and she wouldn't miss it for anything in the world ( if it's harvest time ofc). There are ofc a lot of other brands that do the same thing, but just showing.

Lovely dog - more on the dogs please! Perhaps get one of those little collapsible backpacking fires - more efficient use of the prunnings ?
