Where are those veggie boys? If each volunteered a couple of hours, it would sure help! 😅Family needs to stick together in this world.

[@rickthompson4315]

Whenever you build anything, the foundation is Always the most important, Mom was There! Hey... Barn... New!

[@MediaBrockman]

I can’t believe you have gotten so far on your build! You both are workers for sure!😊

[@Zeke-yv3nw]

Thank you Joel for sharing!

[@kencotton4645]

The transit would have been another way to compare the heights on both sides barn to make sure they were level.

[@amilynnstapay796]

Yummy lunch you two! The structure is coming along well. Love watching the horses play and be silly in the background. Stay excellent!

[@susanl3702]

Looking great

[@rogerpultz5597]

Really enjoyed watching 👍👍

[@caroldocherty6810]

Hi Joel. we have -2° C here in Germany and snow. It is freeeezin lol. Just watched a video on an Amish barn raising. No power tools and they use wooden nails. It was amazing to watch.

[@Gardendreamsforme]

My hubby spent time in Germany while in the US Army and said he’d never been so cold in his life, lol. 55 years later he still talks about how beautiful and Cold Germany was

[@marilynh2980]

I was going to suggest that Joel round up a few of his Amish neighbors to do a barn raising 😊 I’m heading to Germany next week to visit family and go to some Christmas markets. Made sure I bought a warm jacket !

[@byronholmes2496]

Good day to all.

[@zannaB60]

The yellow grippy things are called clamps.

[@gloriadavidson8599]

Joel if you have a tub Epsom salts is great for sore tired muscles 😊 Your MUM is Awesome getting stuck in and helping 👏👏👏 Always enjoy your videos 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Love from the UK x

The years go by so fast. It’s been a great journey Lefty❤

[@JSAC66]

Just wondering why Dawn is never seen talking to her mother, Grammy, or brother , Brian, at the farm market.

[@judimcrae9231]

Who is Dawn?

They look like furniture clamps. When a furniture maker is making chairs they will use those clamps to hold the legs together while the glue dries. (just as an example) I should add they come in different sizes depending on the project.

[@paparay2747]

Those yellow things are known as bar clamps. They come in different sizes and colors.

[@carolynrandle5454]

Take care of yourself and your mom

[@hillarywright7965]

Perfect ending!

[@BethFoster-lm7qq]

Very true, a good day!👍👏

[@beckyp9700]

That barn is moving along wonderfully. May I suggest that Sunny Knoll Stables and The Veggie Boys invest in Knee pads!!!? You are not on your knees like someone laying carpet, however I think all of you would benefit from wearing them or at least having them in the barn or farm market for when you do need them. I can not believe it is almost 4 years since A Stable Life was born. Congratulations! You have an amazing channel. I have been here since episode 1. I have no intentions of leaving until I am pushing up Daisies or you stop making videos. See you in the next one.

[@nobillclinton]

beauteous 😎👍

[@beadwright]

Amazing how far the build has come with the few helpers. You and Mom are a good team. Good on you Joel protecting your Mom's health! Happy Thanksgiving!

[@marthadescoteau5994]

Would love to see a big red and white barn

It just melts my heart to see you and your mother working together❤

[@marianeudorf7524]

[@rogerokelley]

This time next year the project may be completed 😮😮😂😂

[@judimcrae9231]

It really amazes me the amount of equipment and tools you and the Veggie Boys have on the farm and at tthe stables. Is there anything left to get? Something fairly inexpensive that is fairly easy for your fans to get you?

[@joettadevore8680]

I think that yellow thing is called a clamp.

[@jbpost52]

I dont think you really need to dig dirt on the bottom rungs for it doesn't seem necessary. In fact, when wood (regardless of being pressure treated) will rot sooner when it makes contact with the ground dirt. Your more concerned to keep the second and succeeding others level because the bottom 2x6 is only one of many stabilization planks. The critical ones are the upper ones which are combined with rafters across from one another. But kudos for your day of hard work digging.

[@rubac7129]

Do your parents ever join the other family members for meals or family gatherings?

[@roseargetsinger2217]

Why are the boards you are nailing to the uprights not flush with the ones next to it? It seems by putting them together, they would be stronger & less chance of them shifting. . I hope it's not a foolish question.

[@AngieSmith-qh2sz]

Question - what determines what pasture each horse goes in and when? Love the channel!

[@fredquinn3919]

Isn't burying the 2x6 boards under the ground a recipe for future disaster?....was the terrain just not leveled enough?

[@stubstoo6331]

Pressure treated dosent rot, and if the ground is higher there the water won't run to the barn.

Seriously you didn't know that was called a clamp? 😮

Where I come from

[@oldtimefarmer3405]

Why are you putting the boards below ground just step it up as you go 😮

[@patriciahaug6212]

The bottom board needs to be level. It's the one that controls the height of all the boards above

[@oldtimefarmer3405]

@ there is already a board above that’s level but hey just asking it’s not my building guess people build different sometimes will be a nice barn when done

[@adelmowow]

I'm sorry I'm a bit confused , when you first started talking about building this barn you said you had so many people to help you but all the videos I've seen so far You're lucky to get two people to help you what happened? Also is your stable just barely getting by financially that you can't get professionals to help you build this? I'm not just talking about building the barn itself but bringing in temp help with the stable so you could focus more time on building the barn yourselves and other things that need to be done around the stables.
