An Important Message for My Patrons

[@integrativepreparedness9427]

Many don't realize how much time and effort it takes to run a channel, let alone multiple channels. Always enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@pamelafeather6405]

Filming, editing, posting and being near WIFI, is extremely time consuming. My son does this type of work on another subject. I know. I respect your integrity

[@patduncan3670]

[@TJF8]

You showed that being "self-reliant" also includes ethical integrity with your fellow human beings.

[@dsop66]

I have always appreciated your honesty and integrity in everything you are doing on all of your channels.

[@kulin7]

me too :)

[@maryanndickson5029]

My husband and I have enjoyed your channels for years. We admired your skills with hand tools and how you accomplished so much alone. We have a lot of respect for you.

[@christinewinner6425]

I am not a Patron but I watch your channel because TV is very programming. Also I think you are very talented and I am amazed by what you have created on your own. My Mum and Dad built two houses as refugees to Australia back in the early 50s. I love your life style it is the best anyone could have at these trying times. I love your dog also. He is wonderful. How old is he. Just keep being ‘You!’ that is why we are watching because you are so talented and self reliance is the best way to live in these days of trouble.

[@straubdavid9]

Shawn I like you your family and what u are showing us. I am going to take the peaces of what I can do and put them in my life. It's amazing what u have done. It got me thru being bedridden for two years Thank you and all your family. I see beauty in what you do Dane

[@ronpoet]

I have watch you for years and truly appreciate all that you have accomplished in your life. I have applied many of your skills in gardening to my own garden and how I interact with the wildlife that lives on my property such as the small herd of deer. I actually have a three legged deer that I have interacted with in the past four months. I cannot thank you enough for all that you and your family and Cali have given to my wife and I. May God continue to bless you and your family for the hard work you do.

[@arthenry498]

I have been following you so I can live my dreams through YOUR efforts and adventures. I am at a point where MY body is breaking down and not reliable enough for great adventures involving more than my mind. So I am living them through your actions. I am seeing and learning TONS of things. And I am LOVING it. You have provided ME with so much hope, inspiration, and entertainment it is unbelievable. Especially with Cali. I love dogs much more than people by the way. Thank you for ALL the content you have provided here Shawn. I am living and re living it in my mind all the time. Thank you and blessings to you and all of your extended family.

[@MrWolfsDen]

You and your family are more important than anything else . Everyone else is along for the ride .

[@lynn2613]

I'm sorry to hear that something has happened which has not been pleasant. I would impress upon you that you are a very positive individual and helping the community in your available time. Please don't let ridicule rule your life. I appreciate your content, it gives great insight to nature and the animals around us which we take for granted but then may encounter. Please hang in there and know that you do have people who dearly appreciate what you're doing in the community of information and in education.

[@williamrhea3535]

I can't imagine the amount of stress and work you are putting in. I would plead that you do not burn your candle at both ends. Stress can be a killer.

I look forward to watching your channel because you have inspired me to appreciate nature more. I now approach it with a different perspective, and the knowledge is so appreciated.

[@janievanhoozer8604]

Shawn, as an older woman , an and tomboy , too old to be a tomboy but love your life style and outdoors. I’m outdoors when I can now, raised on a ranch that we still have in our family in Texas. So much different that the beautiful land you have in Canada but open land is beautiful in the eye of the beholder. Take care of yourself and your doggie!🙏⭐️🫶🇺🇸

[@tar2927]

[@gordoncook7613]

Shawn, I have been following you for a few years now, I always pick something up from your video,be it knowledge or just a building or construction ideas of your projects and you have helped and enjoy all your channels so thank you for that!!!

[@Judy-wv4mx]

I'm not a patreon member for here or anywhere. I have enough trouble just trying to support myself and there's so many free videos to watch, but I never miss any of your My Self Reliance vids. Thanks for sharing them with us.

[@Wemountainfolk]

Good on you Shawn. I show your content to my son's on a regular basis. I have always taught my children the necessity of integrity and character. You Sir are an illustration of integrity and character. In the USMC we shared and strove for the meaning of Semper Fidelis. Semper Fi Shawn

[@susancurrie8552]

I live in an apartment, and several things you teach help me. You have shown me gardening and woodworking techniques that I use daily. I collect seeds from my plants, add mulch to my garden, use bio char, and plant tea to improve the soil. I also add gypsum to help break down the clay soil here in Texas. I grow sunflowers, poblano peppers, and tomatoes. The hummingbirds and cardinals love the sunflowers and they live in the shrubs that grow here. I do not feed the animals or birds, but grow things that they eat, like millet between the sunflowers and birds of paradise flowers to attract them to my area. The grey squirrels are destructive to some of what I grow, but most of the trees are up in the front of the property. I live near the back. No trees, just shrubs. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with me.

[@marilynwogahn6262]

everything I see you doing helps me greatly. I only wish I could help out on your patron, I so need that content. It is really tough right now and I thought I was prepared . I have been preparing for 30 years and it wasn't enough you are a guiding light.

[@sheilawalker1335]

Hi, Shawn I first started Watching your videos, when you started building your very first cabin. I have watched everyone of your videos after the first one up to the one you just did today. I love to watch your videos. In ways you are showing us the right way to take care of ourselves and our families. So Thank you so very much. I love to watch Callie She is a sweetheart. I fell in love with her the very first day on here too. Give her a kiss for me. I will keep you Callie and all of your family in my prayers daily. God Bless you All.

[@tommycapps9903]

Shawn you are a wealth of knowledge and I learn from your example and work every time I watch you! Keep up the good work.

[@daveyconcrete9801]

Thank you for sharing with us all. Thanks for taking the time to record your activities. I'm sure it lengthens the process of working/ performing tasks.

Ps Shawn, I have always tried to reinvent my self to improve what I do. I see u doing that too. I really admire you thanks for leading and carrying us forward Dane

[@ruthrichardson2717]

Thank you Mr. Shawn James for all you do. I couldn't participate in patron channe. I am a regular viewer, enjoy how you live. It is not just what you do or how you accomplish it; most of all your character comes forth most of all. This is the very 💖 of why i watch.

Absolutely.

[@sway696]

100 percent. And we can also understand that things don’t always work out the way originally planned.

[@tm-cv3qt]

We've been watching for years and will continue ro do so. Part of it is the amazing videography and beautiful scenes. Part of it is all of the progress you've made. Part of it is the skills and talks you share. Part of it is to tune in to a familiar show each time there is a new episode. But, i think just as importanly, for us anyway, is that we tune in because the guy who runs the channel is is the real deal. Keep doing what you do, Shawn.

[@davidlingelbach9887]

Thank you for your honesty and you're up front. At one point in my life I was hoping to do something like what you're doing but with my health issues and everything I wasn't able to do anything. But I still learn a lot from you.

[@paulbird3235]

We are all learning Shawn, none of us have walked this earth before. Good luck!.

[@AlternativeHomesteading]

Thank you for taking the time to explain how Patreon works, the difficulty using the app and the integrity to display towards your supporters.

[@ronstimpson8179]

shawn i would just like to take the time to thank you for your channels, 2 years ago i was going through a bad opiod (12 years) addiction, and watching your videos for 2 weeks straight is what helped me get through the withdrawals. your shows relaxed my mind and body to where i could cope with out drugs. thank you for being a great role model to young and old. your one of my heroes!!!

[@michaelscully7940]

It’s good to see you adopting to the changing world and staying a step ahead. It helps us plan, stay motivated, gives us hope, and be adventurous. All your work and insights are very interesting, inspiring and different. You’re a real craftsman, in all areas, building, gardening , animals, cooking - you name it. So what if you make mistakes, you still get it done and it’s all unique. For me, building the present cabin was thrilling to watch. The huge tree logs, each one hand picked- carefully selected and dragged through rough terrain to the site. Then scooped, leveled and mounted-just you and a wench. Best of luck in your new endeavors, we’ll be following along.

Appreciate the clarification Shawn, wondered why i couldnt get access to the Patreon videos anymore. I really enjoyed the community over at Patreon tho, was fun to be able to comment and interact with you a bit more! So this is quite the bummer but of course i understand why you cant keep it running

Thanks David. Don't hesitate to send me an email if you have any questions or concerns, it's still just me on the other end of the emails.

I'm not one of the patreon members. I've been a member of some other patreon accounts off and on over the years. I would appreciate the message in this video, if I was a member. I would hope others would as well. Three KZbin channels is more work than most realize. Producing content is more time consuming than most realize. Cameras, batteries, the elements, microphones...it's a bastard at times. Only so much time in the day. Love the videos, follower of this endeavour on all 3 YT channels...and other social media. Just happy to be along for the ride. Extremely helpful content and entertaining.

[@2putts2win]

Shawn, many of us understand that you’re time to edit videos vs completing important projects as nato’s planned new government window is closing in. We love your Videos and the content that you provide. Hopefully those followers who have not been able to comprehend what’s happening in western government nations, will free their minds before it’s too late.

[@skiefer4265]

I love everything you're doing and Patreon was by far my favorite to find your most important and incredible content to enjoy and learn. I understand and had noticed the membership which I was also expecting to be very popular to be stagnant. I personally would have paid a lot more for it. One of my sons has bought a few acres and is building a garden based on your teachings and examples. I'll follow you wherever you are. Take care. You are a significant value to many and your wife and sister are important role models for all women.

[@jaymchari]

I am brand new to and just discovered your channels. I am not a patron, but I appreciate videos like these, so I was curious. Thanks for your work. It makes sense to want a close connection with others. Sometimes I get dissappointed when creators focus on the majority of people that may not pay that much attention or be as dedicated or caring about what they're being given, and their response. I think it's interesting when creators take the time and energy to want to interact and engage personally with a person or group of people that pay attention, care, and put a lot of energy into that. It's unfortunate to me that some people are really turned off by and don't want to hear opinions different from their own that they might not agree with. But it proves and makes the people who decide to stay, because they've found something from you they value more, all the more valuable. Thank you for being open.

[@SleepyHighway-qh3cc]

I deeply appreciate your approach to self sufficient living and everything you bring to your channel. I find continuous inspiration, connection and comfort in your words,philosophy, ,experience,skill and actions. I will continue to watch all your channels. Thank You Shawn.

Thank you so much for your honesty and humility. I'll follow your advice to discontinue Patreon, but most definitely will continue to follow you. THANK YOU!

[@harrietmartens742]

Hi Shawn - I’m not a patreon member, but have always enjoyed your content - youre honesty has always been a plus. I’m considerably older than you and have learned so much from your videos. I grow a 1 acre garden most of which I donate to our local rural food bank, but it also supplies my husband and I food for the whole winter and quite often until the next harvest season. I was super interested when you had the all year round greenhouse and was disappointed when you got rid of it as I was trying to save enough money to get one and wanted to see how well it operated. I have freeze dryers so I can preserve lots of extra food for bad times to come. Keep on doing what you can on KZbin- I will definitely be watching and learning.

[@leemyers6428]

Shawn, I as well as others understand the demands on your time putting out content for us to enjoy. You are an inspiration to many including myself and I will continue to watch all 3 of your channels to learn and enjoy.

[@stevidillon]

Ive watched you for years and have enjoyed learning lessons from you. One day i aspire to live on a homestead and try to implement some of these lessons. You are a very honorable ethical person and you don't BS anyone. Youve buult projects, then torn them down as youve learned new things over time and its very real and im glad you share these things with us

[@ronaldhughes2767]

Thank you for being clear and up front. I get the effort you put forth and understand the reasons for discontinuing Patreon. There was redundancy. Your desire to educate and connect with the wider homesteading community to exchange info is not lost on me and my wife. We were patrons. But for us, although we thoroughly enjoy your videos as our Friday night routine, we watched largely to gain information and learn. I have many questions!We are building our homestead now, transitioning out of our jobs, and take to heart what you have to teach. We are part of this community and strive to learn all the time…to us that is what homesteading is in large part; learning and adapting! A while back you mentioned you always had a great interest in teaching others your skills and sharing ideas and knowledge through teaching. I got excited by that and told my wife I would be one of the first to sign up! So I’m putting this out there: would you consider a platform or way, virtually, to connect to the community through a webinar or chat session with people like me that want education and learning out of what you have built upon and share; to talk, discuss, ask questions; to connect to those that don’t just want to live vicariously through you?

I've learned a lot following your channels and will continue to follow you as long as you post. They're so educational and match well with my lifestyle to some extent. I believe you did block my comments on My Self Reliance because I guess you didn't like something I wrote once. Rest assured, I'll never do that on your other channels I follow. Sometimes I blurt things out without enough thought. Anyway, thanks for sharing all your knowledge, Shawn.

I hope you realize how much your subscribers appreciate and trust you.

[@FlyerPatty29]

I really been watching you I guess for over a year. I do enjoy your content and it gives me a way to escape every day whatever. But I have to live every day stuff and I have to prepare for every day stuff. If I wasn’t 75 now close to 76 would’ve started over like you. I don’t have the strength and the ability to do that at this time. However, you have given me a lot of information that helps me. And I just so loved watching you build that cabin from scratch and my husband passed away in 2006, but he told me about a lot of the tools that he used because he was older. And he grew up in the depression. So a lot of things that you did they had to do back then. But I do love the part. You know how to use the new tools. But you know how to use the old tools if you can’t use the new tools and I thought that was amazing. Yes I do know how to use some of those because I did some when I was young. I’m learning from you even though I can’t do some of the things I would love to do that. I used to be able to do so yes I’m living through some of the things you do. And you have an awesome wife let you do your hunting and all the things that you do and that is what is a real marriage because you’re not out doing things you shouldn’t be doing that part you’re not doing bad things. Yes I went through it because my husband was in the Navy the first one and he was gone a lot and I didn’t know till I found out and then he had been going on for years. It made me strong and have to learn things that I didn’t know I would have to learn. But I am so glad that my father taught me a lot because I wasn’t feminine blah blah, no I’m not that kind of woman. I love my husband greatly but we worked hard together so keep doing what you’re doing because I so enjoy it and I know so many others do stay strong because you’re getting up in age too so make sure everything works out so it’ll be easier for you when you start to age a little more

[@mski435]

Love watching all of your content. You have inspired and motivated me in all my endevors. I am amazed at the load that you are able to take on for yourself. Having said that my advice to you is that you need to pull back and prioritize what is important to you. If that means reducing your efforts with patreon youtube etc then so be it. Myself as a viewer will lose out but your health and happines is more important to me and a that is sacrifice I would gladly take.

[@maficstudios]

People are fickle. Watching your channel and the comments, the reality is most people are looking for ASMR kind of content as a distraction, living vicariously through you. When you talk about the reality, it pulls them out of that into a state of realizing how terrible everything is. Functionally, when you get to that point, there's highly polarized perspectives. Where we're probably 95% on the same perspective, that last 5% can upset people who aren't willing to accept disparate points of view. Especially in the current political climate. There are venues, but they can become a drag on your overall goals. Nevertheless, I appreciate all the content you've created, and I'm further along my own journey in that direction because of you, and that means a lot. (Even though I haven't been able to contribute on Patreon.)

[@SeatoSky1111]

I would have liked to have learned from you. Your original plan was great, but I can see how it's challenging to create, shape and direct such things on this platform. I think that's smart to just keep going. Those of us that want to learn can gleam plenty from You Tube and know it's so much appreciated. I am so curious and respect how you and your wife recovered financially from after you lost it all. Really respect what you two have done to recover and thrive. Thanks for the hope.

[@priscillajones623]

I’m happy you decided to be free. It’s a hard message you are trying to deliver. I think you feel like your screaming in the wind. You control you. I can’t do everything you are doing but I agree with it and try to incorporate as much as I can. I do believe you are inspiring.

[@jackmajor7865]

Regardless of anything I am and will remain a fan. Your channels all produce a wealth of knowledge and entertainment. You seem worried and embarrassed by your perceivement of upsetting your Patrons, I am sure that everyone who watches your content appreciates your honesty and will understand that you really had no option than to concentrate your efforts into whatever is needed to support your best health and loyalty to your Family. Keep on doing whatever you think is best for all concerned.

Entertaining as your videos are, watching you inspires confidence to take on big projects as never before, saves a LOT of money, resulting in much more self sufficiency. For a woman in her mid-70s, it's essential to do as much as one can, never stop moving, never stop learning. It keeps the neighbors entertained, too. Thanks.

Shawn! You are an honorable man. Thank you for your honesty. Just so you know - you HAVE and DO teach me so much. As a woman I am unable to manage much of what you create, but I watch because I'm in awe of your talent and skill. I have created two massive gardens and a new orchard. I will soon be introducing yard birds to my suburban homestead. You inspired all that. Most of all you've taught me to keep moving forward. Preparing and becoming more self sufficient has been a slow moving process because I'm doing it by myself. Adding the farm into the mix is going to have more impact because it's more like the life I'm living. Thank you for sharing your life. You DO have an impact on others lives in a big way.

I'm not on patron. But I appreciate your efforts. I have been learning and I'm enjoying your content. I had been considering going to patron.

We on your u tube channels love what you do, also if I could turn back time I would move to Canada and ask to join in with you and your family in this life you are building. Thus is because you are doing what I have always dreamed of.
