Hi.... Evan and Rebecca thanks you for showing your video homestead bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋👍👍👍

[@7StandsFarm]

Another great video thank you

[@KansasCowBoy]

Evan you should invest in an inexpensive medal detector and scan any area before cleaning it.

[@R94GC]

just posted a 20 minute video of me using a mini excavator with the TMK 150 tree sheer going on cutting down some 5-6" diameter trees. It handles them so well. can't wait to test this thing out more!

[@martinvella9644]

TALK TALK TALK TALK...............

[@markpriddy1]

Thanks. Good job.

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

Ash Borers are killing Ash trees everywhere.

[@ithacacomments4811]

Heat index of 101 in the Southerntier of New York State today!

[@jasoncorreal8810]

We hit 110 heat index in PA today!

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Looks good Evan, the place is cleaning up really nice. Glad you lucked out when you ran over that pile with the brushhog. Don't need anything breaking down for awhile. Stay safe and keep up the fun around there. Fred.

[@rkthing55]

You looked like you were having fun with the chainsaw! Glad you wore safety gear. Enjoyed watching the cleanup...therapeutic even though all I did was watch.

[@mrclaus859]

Thanks Evan

[@daleredmond6449]

I'm sure on a daily basis You look over the work you've done, and give yourself a pat on the back. I for one know you deserve a healthy pat buddy

[@Tomhohenadel]

Hot work cutting trees with the chainsaw. You are a brute for punishment. Kudos to you

[@user-zl3wl9rs6s]

Yes sir, this is the kind of videos that I like. Can’t wait for the fence to be done. Great job!👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@dcoxtimberridge]

I use my tractor with bucket to push trees the way i need them to fall when necessary.. works great never a problem

[@bohammarberg4072]

Good morning! 🌹🌹🌹

[@bevnelson3678]

It’s going to look good Even.

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

I bet R-Becky was impressed with your accomplishments. Looks like it would be the first thing she sees when turning off the highway. Very good work on an obviously hot day. 👍👍👍

[@cowboy73386]

You've done an amazing job with the time you had. A house gets built one brick at a time! I know you'll get all you want done after a while. Stay safe and my wife says to make sure you keep hydrated and drink a lot of water lol.

[@AfterTheRains]

Seems you got a huge amount cleared in a short amount of time on your own.

[@donblevins1181]

when you do your v cut on a tree cut horizontal on the bottom cut about 2/3 past the center line top cut 45o for top cut, a bit higher on your back cut and watch the top of the tree

[@josephclark7163]

Put up some electric fence around the pile for a few days, the goats would pick it clean.

[@tacojohnhg8181]

One of my favorite things to do growing up was to take a long, slender stick (6+ feet long) and sharpen the end a bit and stick a persimmon on there and see who could fling it the furthest. With a good 8+ft long stick, you could send it well beyond the range of being able to reliably find it again lol

[@charlenepartlow7880]

Looking good Evan and Rebekah ! So happy to see things going your way for a clean up from things long acquired over yrs b4 you had the farm....you guys are great ! Evan you are such a calming factor for my husband and me. Every time you have a new video.. My husband shouts out ...EVANS GOT A NEW ONE ! y'all would be amazed at how much you have become a part of our lives...God bless you in all your endeavors and for all you bring to all of us ! 🙏 You are loved and admired! 😊

[@toddforhetz]

I agree with everything you said. I am SOOOOO thankful that I get to watch their progress. They are such good people and hard workers. A wonderful Christian couple.

[@outdoorstudios2022]

Looks good Evan

[@Dan-qy1rg]

Good job cleaning out the brush for the fence, that was a lot of work and doing it on a hot day, whoa. We had cows to go threw our fence so we really didn't have a choice, so I can appreciate what you did there. I have a lot of vines around here too, but luckily I haven't had any issues with the poison oak or ivy, but I try not to get to much on me. Good luck on the rest of the clean up and I hope you have a nice weekend.

[@EC4400]

Evan, clearing the fence line is really serving to beautify the pasture area. It looks great. But that is what you guys have been doing for years now. Nice job🎉🎉

[@keithbugden4399]

Don't know if you're aware but carbide saw chain is a total game changer. I have cut several stumps off to below ground level and the chain is still sharp. Worth every penny.

[@johnzink3309]

Thx

[@richardmiller3919]

Yes it’s hot101 🔥

[@edsecorr7812]

Great job keep up the good work love your videos thank you

[@BryanPAllen]

You should invest in a metal detector for checking for metal

[@ruadhscottygirl2480]

As a metal detecting instructor, I can tell you that that would be a bad idea, at least at this time. First, contrary to what most people think, you can’t just pick up a metal detector and start using it with any type of accuracy. As with all skills, it must be learned and practiced. Second, there is no place to actually SWING a detector in that mess, and detectors take motion to work.

[@NA-sy2fm]

He's already got a metal detector. The brush hog lol 😂

[@France2107]

Really looking good. Y'all are making good progress on cleaning up and clearing the property. It looks so much better. Really hot weather to be doing it though.

[@patrickwiklund2039]

👍

[@ivyturnbull7460]

You Have A great knowledge of trees You and Rebecca doing a great job. your place is really beautiful. when do you find time to do all of the videos

[@richardkeeton3057]

I'm in Illinois too buddy. This heat and humidity is tough. Don't over do it and stay hydrated.

[@stevengunter2843]

It’s looking good you have worked hard at it going to pay off!!

[@leahmollytheblindcatnordee3586]

You look like your getting more at ease with the chainsaw and also in felling the trees. I doubt that this may be a good idea for you, but thought I would throw it out anyway. We have sometimes used a somewhat open area in our woods for leftover branches like these. They provide cover for pheasants, rabbits and such and they are out of sight. The branches rot and enrich the soil. We do have a chipper, but it is hot work to use and does take a lot of time. Anyway take care and hope the weather improves.

[@csnanny1882]

You have gotten to be an expert at cutting down trees, and that has been many since you bought the farm. It is looking great around there, but don’t forget that water bottle. How’s your garden doing ?Have you done any canning ?God bless, ❤

[@danielb1877]

10:09 Walnut has allantoin 👍

[@jimbucher1049]

Another great video...see you again....stay cool and safe !!!

[@sandypratt8951]

❤️👍👍👍

[@leol1682]

Enjoy the video Evan now go get a coool shawer .

[@andrewl7467]

Nice soybean field.

[@danieljones-fc1eu]

Walnuts make best Shade

[@halsnyder296]

The difference between a valuable tree and a weed? Where it’s at.

[@sandratalbert9578]

Another day filled with some hot hard work….Good job 👍👍👍

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

Can you use a metal detector over land you're clearing? 👍👍👍

[@donhopf5877]

Watch the power lines. Last fall I was working the loader and tractor and the trees in the grapple fork touch the power line. Nothing happen, but I trying to be more careful now.

[@momstrublue]

It’s looking better and better!

[@coyroberts8356]

Boy them 🫘 are growing grate !!!!😊

[@Flowing23]

👍👍

[@smackdaddybigdaddy3089]

I never seen a wood burner pick out wood

[@jeffjones4006]

It’s your property do the work anyway you want. You are doing great job.

[@helenhelps9619]

👍👍❤️

[@sylviaprudhomme5417]

Really looks nice😊😊😊😊😊

[@terrycastor8299]

Everything takes time it seems. I never get done what I intend in a day. Just the way it goes.

[@teenagefarmer]

Looks really good!! Stay cool this weekend.

[@robertwilson9097]

I recommend any tree within 100 feet of a fence needs to go

[@garystlaske7703]

Another Great Video 😊

[@ronaldlee2376]

You are right about Walnut trees not being compatible with some vegetable plants. Found out Asparagus will not grow near these trees.

[@jasoncorreal8810]

We have lost nearly 100% of the Ash trees at our farm, most of them 100 years old and more than 75 ft tall. In central PA.

[@coyroberts8356]

Bite it!!! 😂

[@jamesmorrison1884]

Nice work Evan. Have a good day

[@petegraham1458]

Nice job of cleaning up.

[@quienvive675]

😎👍

[@thisismyway]

If you are allergic to urashol and you burn the vines of poison ivy, oak, or sumac, if you breathe the smoke, you can say goodbye.

[@Iamkcs2c]

Juglones are the chemicals in walnut trees that suppress other plants (i think)

[@51rwyatt]

I have a big black walnut on my front lawn. They say they produce juglone which retards other plants. In my experience it is not so simple. The grass under the walnut is the best in the yard. But we still have perennials that like it there. I say with walnuts, plant the tree and experiment.

[@NancyBryantIdeas]

Wait another 20 years and you will have no grass unless you put straw and grass seed on it every fall. My folks had English walnuts and no grass and the husks did not fall off of the nuts either. But then I am in central Washington and everything has to have irrigation or it dies.

[@51rwyatt]

@@NancyBryantIdeas I think where I live (Maine) we get so much rainfall / snow that it's possible the juglone/natural herbicide is diluted. I have a black walnut; not sure also if there are differences among the walnut types in terms of the herbicide effect. The tree is about 20 years old, maybe 25.

[@NancyBryantIdeas]

@@51rwyatt English walnuts produce the same juglone. It also affects animals if they eat the leaves and nuts.

[@jamesburnette4120]

Folks where I live covet Blackberrys. Sad to see them go. Just thinking about all the Blackberry cobbler, Blackberry ice cream.

[@mikemeng3547]

Hi who owns the field in the back ground ?

[@stevemartinez6757]

I do things a bit differently than you. Not saying that there is a "right or wrong" way. I typically use my backhoe to take down trees so that I get the stump and everything out. The "good" firewood trees I save to make firewood (oak or hickory). Most of the others I just burn (pine, maple, sweet gum).

[@garyjohnson4458]

Hope you still have a blackberry patch

[@rkthing55]

I think there are berries near their orchard and near the pond.

[@kd5inm]

Yeah I spoke about that and Evan said they have lots of blackberries elsewhere on their place.

[@skrtskit1521]

💖💖🎶🎶

[@robineggblue-bp3rq]

I have a feeling you guys are going to be finding junk for years.

[@randalljones137]

Need a commercial chipper to chip that many limbs

[@nickandersen8228]

I think you should buy a cheap metal detector and go along the fence before cutting down small trees and weeds. Especially on their plot which has had so much metal rubbish from previous owners

[@nickandersen8228]

yes this is google translate english. greetings from Norway 😄

[@henkheemskerk4437]

walnut trees have some sort off oily substance that prevent other trees to grow

[@geohac2456]

have you considered growing a cash crop? soybeans?

[@Bex-rg8pj]

It is hot 🥵

[@mitchellgourley4642]

Why don’t you use the backhoe and tear them out?

[@dannygoin6552]

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍🥃🥃🥃👀👀👀☕️☕️☕️🍻🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@richardbuller9283]

Didn't you just get a chipper?

[@jamielawson1534]

Walnut trees are the worst to keep if you have any crops close to them.

[@phillippedentremont3788]

The ash tree that you cut down needs to be burned immediately. You need to kill all of the emerald ash beetle will move on to the next tree.

[@haroldcarr2635]

I see all the safety gear that you use when you run the saw , for a lot more safety get that thumb on your left hand around that bar ,with it up on the bar kickback can put that saw out of your left hand and into your face in about half of a heart beat

[@fabioforni5722]

Are you hoping to do KZbin full time.

[@CountryViewAcres]

I hope to one day.

[@jamesmckinney9648]

ham

[@robertneff5500]

omg Evan your a nice guy but the tree is 6 inches com on man!!!

[@Bataklan2008]

The previous owner of the land is a baaaaad person

[@andyrobinson339]

De-limbed?? lol....Limbed!

[@kd5inm]

Strip those bigger limbs for fence posts.

[@jg8644]

“I have no time”. Next sentence: “I have 3 days off a week… to do this stuff.”. Hmmm
