Hi Ken. Yours is the only vlog, or whatever it's called, that I follow faithfully, and I've tried several. You take us with you, as if we're going for a walk together, and you do the everyday, but with such enthusiasm, like loving the grass, then loving seeing it turned into fodder for J's sheep. Great episode with the bailing and Olympic grade tractor work; garden looking super, dogs, cat and hens ditto; and delicious, if incinerated chicken, with Gina's salads - and Gina with her wonderful tan. Have you had your exams yet? - I love how your Portuguese is coming along. Looking forward to the next episode, all the best, N🌻

[@OKportugal]

Hi Noelle, thanks for your kind words. I am really glad to hear that you have been enjoying our vlogs for all these years. Our last Portuguese exam is next month! :)

[@noelleclemens7057]

Very very very good luck!

Ken Thank you so much for Mum's Salad Dressing recepie. The farm is looking amazing. ❤❤

[@OKportugal]

You're welcome, its a great dressing, im sure youll love it!

[@michelebushnik2874]

Ken and Gina, your land looks spectacular all groomed and mowed and bailed! I love your lawn grass area! Nice to see baby chickens! I'm going to try Ken's Mom's salad dressing❤ Thank you for the share, your grilled chicken and potatoes looks so good! Never thought to cook the potatoes under, so they get all the juicey drippings❤ brilliant idea! Juoguin is an angel !

[@OKportugal]

Thanks Michele, the salad dressing is amazing! My spatchcock chicken tasted way better than it looked, burned the ends of the drumsticks, but the rest was perfection. 😁👍

[@moukafaslouka4796]

You are living my dream life. A nice, peaceful farm with plenty of small animals. What else can one ask for?

[@barbarapeirson843]

A great harvest, Ken ... watching Joachim on his tractor is pure ballet!

[@OKportugal]

Thanks Mom, and thanks for the salad dressing too!!! :)

[@costasworldofmusicmemories5792]

Second time around watching this. It was fun just watching the master do his work with the tractor. It's all good. 🍺🍺 Jim and Harriet

[@OKportugal]

Always fun watching the "hay pooper" :D

[@jackiemahan4643]

Your hard work truly shows... Love all the wildflowers!

[@OKportugal]

Thanks Jackie :)

[@merrymeadowshomestead2522]

Great harvest! You could always sweep up the patch of leftover hay from the broken bale and either compost it or use it to mulch your raised beds.

[@OKportugal]

Great idea!

[@mariadiasdasilva9288]

Que bom, matar saudades de onde nascemos.Tanto que trabalhamos aí, noutros tempos desde pequenos. Fico contente em ver tudo bem tratado😊

[@daviddjerassi]

Its a beautiful farm producing lots of winter feed how about your grapes and olives please tell us about those next loved the video thank you.

[@OKportugal]

Thanks David, I will do :)

[@daffs0]

Great video love watching when it’s balling time brings back memories Thank you for sharing 😁

[@cindyblair1283]

Hello ken and Gina❤ I have enjoyed all your videos and have enjoyed both of your Sense of humor. Your place is a beautiful paradise. Thank you for sharing your story and journey with all of us. CIndy 🇺🇸

[@OKportugal]

Hi Cindy, that's really great to hear. Thank you for your kind words 😊 all the best to you 😁👍

[@deborahwhite2339]

Awesome day on the farm. 🙂👍👍🇨🇦

[@virginiajorgensen8614]

Great video and also a terrific reolink description. Your property is looking so nice.

[@OKportugal]

Thanks Virginia! :)

[@pedrapioan4201]

I'm looking and looking everyday on line and still cant find a property as nice as yours for me my Pyrenean 'Mountain Dog's & Welsh Sheepdogs. I'm feeling a little deflated as the property market in UK is at a dead stop, while property prices for smallholdings in Portugal seem to be skyrocketing! And where the hell do I find another Joachim ??? You are blessed with such a great local community❤ O well, keeping the faith and the quest alive 😁 🤞🤞🤞

[@smoke2615]

Ken, have you ever herd that rake implement called a "tedder"? The action being "tedding" the hay.

[@OKportugal]

Aah thanks for that... I had no idea what it was called. I searched on Google for Vintage Tedder and its exactly like Joaquims :)

[@dorareis1752]

looking awesome and gonna try out mums salad dressing.

[@OKportugal]

Hope you enjoy

[@Aotruba]

👍🥰👍Delicious chicken! Interesting farm work 👍

[@pedrapioan4201]

Bloody freezing here in south west Pais de Gales. It's surely a record breaking wet & cold June. We are left wondering what has happened to "Flaming June" ???

[@OKportugal]

I hope it's warming up for you now, its getting very hot here already 😁👍

[@noorulain6124]

Excellent. Job..I am interesting .agriculture field

[@pedrapioan4201]

It's time you bought a sit on mini-tractor with all the attachments, and started taking lessons from the master 😉😅

[@OKportugal]

Why? Then I have to buy a tractor, and joaquim doesn't get free grass... and I can't film the harvest,because I'm holding a steering wheel... I think everything is better this way 😊👍

[@MGBranco]

Oh yeah! Congrats for the harvast! Maybe I will need some for my chickens Ken! Ahahahah! Cheers from Lobatinhos/Pampilhosa da Serra!

[@OKportugal]

Thanks 👍

Thanks Celia :)

[@nickcox6556]

Definitely a good crop this year...well done! 😊

[@OKportugal]

Thanks Nick! Its looking like it will be a great year for our olives too! We are blessed! ❤

[@carinep.4520]

What type of soil do you have? How do you better your soil?

[@OKportugal]

Hi Carine, Joaquim sows different types of clovers during the spring that fixes nitrogen in the soil, and now that the grasses are cut we will till the remaining grasses and roots back into the soil which will compost and add organic matter.

[@Wabsy1]

What are the dogs guarding against is there wild animals

[@OKportugal]

Yes but nothing really that dangerous. We have foxes, badgers, mongoose, genets, otters... the only thing that could hurt you are the wild boar.

[@Admiral-GeneralAladeen]

that tractor is purring like a kitten

[@OliviaMmmm]

Looking really good Ken! Lovely episode 😍

[@OKportugal]

Thanks livvie ❤️

[@tiogoala7654]

Hey Ken, nice video. Did Jack get any of that good chicken? Portuguese will not ask, but it is customary to offer up some of the dinner. He's working really hard. I'm hungry just watching this. 😁

[@AbberZombie]

Let me know if you’d like a link to some awesome fly traps! Y’all really seem to suffer around all the livestock. They work soooo well. I won’t post it here, (don’t want to break the rules) but srsly, just let me know. Love y’all!

[@OKportugal]

Sure 😊 are they called Red Top fly traps? We use them around the farm in the summer and they catch thousands of flies

[@AbberZombie]

I should have known that you would have something in place already. Good to know!

[@melinda5777]

Gonna check out the camera now! And im going to get that recipe! ✝️🙏❤🇺🇸🇵🇹👣🌻🍍☘🤗😎

How full is the Maratega Dam Ken?

[@OKportugal]

I haven't been down there in a few weeks but it was looking very full.

[@its-simple-living]

Hi guys I was wondering what editing program you use please? Many thanks Jason

[@OKportugal]

Hey Jason, I use Adobe Premiere Pro. My sister works for Adobe and she gifts it to me each year 😁👍

[@EdsonMedina]

How much does that detatching and baling work cost?

[@OKportugal]

I'm not sure. We let Joaquim grow grasses on our fields in the Winter and Spring to feed his flock of dairy sheep in the Summer. He does the work and feeds his sheep with the bales.

[@leeboss373]

I lit my coal fire earlier today Yet another great British summer, Not.

[@OKportugal]

Oh wow! I heard there were big storms over south east UK yesterday!

[@leeboss373]

@@OKportugal Yeah, yesterday was a washout. Didn’t even take the dog out for a walk last night it was that bad. Dog walked out of back door and walked straight back in lol.

It is cold here in Devon, had socks and a warm jacket, even the electric blanket yesterday, but - beautiful sunset....

@@noelleclemens7057 Yeah, I took the dog out at midnight last night and it actually felt warmer then than it did during the day because the cold wind had died down. Had that a few times in the last few months.

What hes doing it called raking

[@elsestelema6273]

There cant be much nutrition left in that! (Hay. Is grass, straw comes from growing grains different things)

[@sox7784]

The farm is beautiful ❤❤❤

[@kyo778]

Get yourself some temperature probes. You probably overcooked the crap out of the chicken but who knows unless you can get the internal temp. In fact someone please send some to review for sponsorship dollars. The cool bluetooth remote ones. Also it's "Weber" not "Weeber" - j/k the saffa accent is cool🤣

[@Annedio08]

Seria interessante se VC metesse o valor no vídeo!!!! Obrigada 😊 Uma questão, tradução automática p português,nem todos falam inglês.....Merci 😊

What part of Portugal central north, middle,or south, are you in? How much do they charge for the language lessons in Portugal?

[@OKportugal]

@@john-u6i3o we are in central Portugal in the castelo branco district. The language lessons are free.

@@OKportugal thank you, I speak English and Danish, but looking for a place to retire,I am currently in Australia but miss the European life style.australia is very expensive and now has a extremely high crime level on all levels 😐

[@john-u6i3o]

@@OKportugal thank mate looking for a place to retire, you make it sound brilliant, have been looking at a side cripe to help my retirement, Portugal seems to fit in the picture, leaning the language is fun if the locals are willing to put up with the bad pronunciation 🧐😵😀 only speaking from experience 🙉🤔😀, do you have water tanks on your house to feed the toilet? Do you reciecle your grey water? Is it possible to put up a small wind turbine? Have you heard of the salt batteries, very cheap but hold 1/2 the storage of Tesla batteries, have you looked into ground heating, they use it in DK, my niehbour made one ,yes it works but he forgot a thermalstat to regulate the heat😵🧐🙄😉😀
