I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas in my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much MORE!
At Lumnah Acres we hope our experiences can help guide you to find YOUR BETTER WAY! Please join us in sharing our journey with you, let us be a guide to Modern Homesteading, Self-Sufficiency, and FREEDOM for you!

I used to fall trees for a living you need to loosen that chain up a little bit. It will help keep your saw from bogging down so much, it will also save your tip on your bar and your sprocket

[@rebbeccaselves2358]

I love Hope jumping or kicking up her heels lol You amazing people have an awesome day

[@lindafoster2141]

Al, I am 66 yrs old, at one Time my first husband and I had 10 goats, 60 chickens, at a time there was no one to teach us what we didn't know. Now I am remarried after my first husband passed from breast cancer. I was never able to have children. I have spinal stenosis, so my days have gone by since I could care for the animal's I loved, I some times feel like giving up, but your beautiful family and the other home steamers, remind me, I am blessed, with a lovely family and my friends!!thank you for sharing your precious journey. GINA, OLIVIA, Pluto, Tanner, and Figaro are such blessings. God Bless!

Really great time for clearing brush & burning in the snow ! Safely!

[@barrydavidson525]

Al, I owned a restaurant in Portland, OR. years ago that was well known for Halibut fish and chips. One year we sold 22,000 pounds of fish. The one tip I will pass on to you when you fry your fish next time, is roll the chunks of fish in flour then into your batter. When you are taking the fish out of the flour spread your fingers apart to shake excess flour off. Then into the batter, just keep an eye on the thickness of your batter as it will thicken if you are cooking a lot of fish. Our batter was very thin, the key to not having greasy fish. Good luck, always look forward to watching your channel.

[@larrywilliams9180]

Apple wood is a good smoking wood good job on the videos we love them.

[@FRAMILY860]

i use pine in my smoker. Great flavor.

[@snapstring3134]

I agree. Certain meats taste great with apple 🍎 wood smoke 💨. 👍

[@StevesBeyondRepair]

Al, after its warmed up and running, probably no need to choke. It seems you are flooding it by the looks of the wet plug. When I get a flooded no start i hold the saw in my right hand holding throttle wide open while pulling cord with left. Love your videos and your drive!!

[@robinminnesota5491]

Fun part of winter is the unknown weather suprises. We went from a dusting to 4" of snow last monday. I bet the area smelt so wonderful with the air filled of apple wood smoke...Have a great weekend..

[@HarborHon1]

Bet that brush fire smelled good. Roasted beets! Yes! Thanks for sharing your day. God Bless you all.

[@hutchlinda9]

From the overhead view the other day, it looked like the original trees were cut down several years ago and the suckers from the base of the tree stumps grew up.

[@stevenrennard6151]

You could build a log wall around where you’re going to put the bee hives. Will protect the hives from the wind and snow in the winter time.

[@whitepinewoods9029]

Bright, beautiful winter days are the best, no matter what happens!

[@__-xq9gp]

Try using 93 octane with your fuel mix and add seafoam. Since I've done this my saw always starts in 1 or 2 pulls. Even when sitting for a month or two.

[@dianehall5345]

The apple trees on our farm are ancient. We trim off branches and cut a few down that are falling down. Apple wood smells devine, as our two homes have stoves in the kitchen. It would sell or trade well....

[@idadho]

If you remove the lower cross bar on the NYC awning, you could mount it lower so it protects better. Snow never falls straight down.

[@tjferl3717]

My 68 yrs. old husband watches you every morning and he's a throw back from the 1800's. He admires your drive but he's starting to think, you have too much! You're overwhelming yourself. We've been there and done that! We also don't understand why all your buildings are so far away from each other. Are you creating a farm or a homestead? We understand you moved from the city to the country because of anxiety but it looks like you're creating anxiety for yourself. Again, we respect your drive but don't overwhelm yourself. THE MORE YOU HAVE, THE MORE HEADACHES YOU HAVE, KEEP IT SIMPLE!

[@cooldog60]

What do you want him to do sit around and twiddle his thumbs?

[@coffeeandcupcakes7310]

@Deb long honestly at this point hes making so many changes and adding so many buildings and investments that I'm inclined to believe hes going to eventually sell the place and move on. Maybe I'm wrong but thats a lot of structures to affect taxes, a field he hasn't used yet, etc. He also said in previous videos his 'long term' dream was to move somewhere else and buy 200 acres and teach people how to homestead or something like that. But plans change of course, so maybe thats not what hes doing? Who knows at this point lol.

[@kirstenwhitworth8079]

I'm 63 and a homesteader; I know what you mean. I love watching his carpentry videos, and I think that making small, portable buildings is _very smart._ He's a master carpenter, at least in my book, and is doing what he's best at. They can always move most of those portable buildings (I call most of them tractors) closer together, further apart, or in new fields. I do suspect some of those tractors were made to attract viewers and make money on KZbin; can't fault him for that, but I don't see that he's overdone it yet. These days, we're all about rotational grazing and renewable/sustainable agriculture. We try to design farms and homesteads so that they maintain themselves, or at least reduce maintenance, once they are fully developed. We try to work with animals to build healthy infrastructure to support the life that lives on it. It takes a few years to set that up, though more hands make lighter work - at least once they are trained. Cousins might help? Rotating goats & pigs, then chickens every day through the fields will break the parasite cycles and help keep them all worm-free. They'll help the soil by adding nutrients. Cover crops would help a bunch, especially if designed to maximize restoration of missing elements back into the soil. He's still young. If he does the work now, it will make things better for him when it's time to retire. He's just got to make sure he's got someone to pass it on to. Would Livy stay when she's an adult?

[@coffeeandcupcakes7310]

@Deb long Yes I was adding to the conversation. What you said about the buildings being apart in case of fires and near to the fields. If I was going to sell a property I would not put things where it was easy for me to travel to them, I would put them where a buyer might consider them better to be. Near to fields, apart further in case of fires. It looks more aesthetically pleasing but makes it tougher on him because he has to travel to them. Again I was adding to the conversation, guess it wasn't necessary.

[@tannenbaum3444]

He's creating urban sprawl on his own property.

[@keithrayeski6417]

smart planning Al....new orchard will pay off much more than trying to salvage the old ones....

[@lisabruce5181]

Ok Al, dry the fish really well first, then dredge in flour before dipping in the batter. You would also have better success using water instead of milk, it will make it crispier.

[@jenniferhuff2547]

You're correct about the ethenol in the gas. It really does a number on the 2 stroke engines. It made our lawnmower quit running. Have to use high test for it to run correctly. Your fish and chips looked delicious. How much longer for goat babies to be born. Much love from OHIO ❤️❣️❣️❤️

[@mjinfl967]

Hang in there Al. Spring is just around the corner.💖

[@SOHN32]

Need loosen your chain up on saw a bit. Reason bonging and dieing out. That or oil mix a bit rich 40:1 seems work good for us. Also gas could be old try mix small batches at time.

[@rich-bynameonly5325]

Thank you. I needed that inspiration at the end of the video. I've gotten to the point where sometimes it's hard to get motivated.

[@bradpayn8058]

I haven't tried out one of those new 80v cordless chainsaws yet, but I'd like to. If they are any good, think of all the starting issues and rope pulls that they would save, and the smoke you breath, and noise. Once I went to an electric splitter (corded), I never went back. I do have a small corded chainsaw that I use in and around the shop near outlets, it works great, if only it were larger, like some of the new cordless. One thing I noticed is how big a help it is when I don't have to keep it idling in one hand while I try to reposition something with the other. Just pull the trigger, and it's running instantly.

[@bradpayn8058]

@Deb long I guess I'll need to make sure to try one with a good warranty then.

[@nikkolettguyer4913]

Al you can use your torch to clean your spark plug , an old trick I used with 2 cycle plugs in my old snow mobiles as I did not run them as hard as my brothers so I carried a propane torch so I could get home.

I love your message today!!! Definitely something we need to remind ourselves of from time to time. One bite at a time.

Yesterday I tried to go back and see how you all started in homesteading. It was amazing to hear your story and see how far you have all progressed. I am so glad that you have stuck with it. Your stories, videos and thoughtful sayings are inspirational to me and to so many! Sustainable living represents hope to me. Not the goat, 😁 but actual hope in healing ourselves and the planet. My great, great (very great) grandpa came to this continent in 1635. He settled in what is now the Connecticut area after arriving by boat from England. His family was one of 28 settler families to be given land by his church in which to cultivate and develope a homestead. They traded with Indians along the Hudson river and helped establish a community. The freedom of sustainability is what this country was founded on! People were tired of going hungry while paying homage to a King who over taxed them. They came here for the freedom to live, own land and feed their family healthy nourishing food! They came for the freedom to work and create wares to be bartered and shared. And last, but not least, the freedom to worship as they pleased. All of this was the start of America! Our American Dream! Thank you Lumnah Family! God Bless and Congrats on 1000! +1? 😁❤👍

Why not give the cut down apple trees to the goats first? It will keep them busy and what is left would be either to small and compost where it is or big enough for fire/smoking wood. Sounds like way less work too.

[@tiffany02020]

?? There’s no leaves on those trees. They’ll only eat bark off a live tree as a last foraging resort. They wouldn’t touch dead bare branches. Or did I misunderstand somehow? How would the goats eat that? Mine sure wouldn’t at least.

[@billonthehill9984]

Al, a couple tips on the Husky, (1) always put upward pressure on tip of bar B4 tightening the nuts, (2) the saw is flooded. Place it on the ground, lay a stick through the handle, place your foot on the stick to hold the saw in place, turn the choke OFF, switch ON, with your right hand squeeze the throttle wide open, with the left hand some quick pulls on the cord, it may take 4 or 5 pulls but it will start, get to work... 1 more tip, I lied, never leave home without the hardhat with face shield & ear muffs. Professor Bill has spoken, LOL! Bill on the Hill... :~)

Way to keep your head up and moving forward Al. It doesn't matter how the food looks as long as it taste good.

[@googiesfairyfarm4834]

I agree with you both. The important part is how it tastes and you just keep trying until you figure out how you like it. I’ve never seen anyone use a wet batter to fry fish. If you want it to be light and crispy try rolling it in egg and then tempura.

[@michellepernula872]

Apple trees need fertilizing in the Spring and pollinators.

[@mandeladams4793]

Something to test for yourself, your chain will feel like it stays sharper for longer if you brush the most of the snow off before you make your cuts. I found it was a tempering the steel in the chain, noticed the difference while cutting and hand filing to sharpen. Could be just me but that’s what I noticed.

[@mgfarmer1]

You set the hot saw down in the snow and the heat causes moister to get in the ignition system and it won't start or is hard to start.

[@markrandall1456]

Strap a 30" limb to your leg and then feed the animals. That's what life will be like if you don't wear your chaps. Chain saw accidents happen so fast.

[@drillsgtlangdon]

Excellent progress sir! In regards to "what to do with the remaining logs"... Sell them. Pit masters in smoke houses all over LOVE apple wood for their smokers!

Looking forward to how your chix progress, and how your new goat babies turn out once their born in the near future. Keep em comin.. love this channel!!!!

[@shannonstephens4245]

Al the trick is to dry your fish very well before battering. Crisp will hold on better! Looked good though!

[@JDLarge]

Thanks for the idea Al, it’s haddock tonight! That’s one thing we’re spoiled with here in the northeast, great seafood! You scared me for a second there though. When laying anything into hot oil, always place it down and then away from you as you let go. I got splashed one day working in a restaurant in Hillsboro and although it’s barely noticeable now, there’s white dot scars on my cheek. I was lucky, it could’ve been much worse... I was distracted and plopped a big piece of battered fish into oil and it got me. I always take great care since then as you can imagine, hot oils no joke! I thought for sure you’d save some big pieces of that applewood for Gina for projects, no? Anyway, stay warm my northern friends, were almost through this white stuff lol... Can’t wait for the spring, so many things lined up but just need Mother Nature to play fair to kick them off. Enjoy your day✌🏼

[@kennethrimestad5045]

As a former Apple farmer in Washington State I also hate to see apple trees being cut down. Sometimes a tree will get to the point it will not produce and it will need to be cut down so you can start to plant younger trees for a higher production. Thanks for bringing back some of my older memories. Keep up the good work on the farm and I enjoy watching you Gina and Olivia working the farm and making the changes.
