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!

That cart is a very good help around the farm Al....Olivia is always a happy willing helper...Enjoy the rain your plants love it and pigs...Nice 'dogs' and they look yummy!

[@mlo6965]

Another precious video Al, Gina & Olivia. Al, I hope you feel better. Are you working to hard? Take care of yourself. Your family needs you more than the animal's. Blessings

[@6996katmom]

It kept raining here too. We ended up with 1 in one day and 3 1/2 the next day. Have a Blessed Day!

[@ryandellavecchia9349]

Indoor hay feeder, use some wood 2x2s to make a box and use lattice to make all the walls and bottom. They can pull the hay out and don't waste much at all. Works great for our girls.

[@woodchipful]

It must be nice to eat a hotdog when you actually know what's in it! Looks good!

[@LumnahAcres]

Yea it is really nice knowing whats inside! Lol

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Everything looks good. A movable run in shed will be nice for the new pasture. We picked up 3 lambs yesterday not quite goats but my wife is a spinner so it will be interesting.

[@ffwife1210]

I'm glad Blue Cactus Dairy Goats was able to answer some questions and help you out with milking Willow! Krystal is a wealth of knowledge!

[@reginaldsmith7897]

Watching your videos remind me when I was younger on the Farm bring back good memories thank you for your videos and keep up the good work!!!👋🏿👋🏿👋🏿

[@stephm281]

Those carts are fantastic. My hubby bought one for me. Wonderful for us seniors to use in the garden etc.👍🏻

[@dpower02]

A tip from a bearded guy; if you put your condiments in the bun before putting the hotdog in the bun its a lot neater and you don't get stuff all over your hairy parts.

[@toadpink]

You deserve that cart! You work so hard, anything that you can do to ease the work load!

[@bigricky63]

[@rockinrickard61]

When I made our goat pen and barn we had some left over fence that I used to make a hay rack for our goats. I just cut the openings as big as I thought they'd need; It's worked out great for us.

[@fla-bushcraftprepper941]

I am 53 and the first time I ever seen anyone make hot-dogs is from Lumnah Acres. I smoked hot-dogs once and now my wife only wants to eat them smoked. Her birthday is October 3rd. We have an alternative tradition for birthdays. The person gets to choose a birthday party or eating out for 7 nights leading up to their birthday. We usually choose eating out for 7 nights.

[@caroldorsett8170]

Morning, garden carts are a must have I have one just like it all but much more beat up as I have had it for ten years. They are tough wagons and great help. Have a lovely day Olivia.

[@littlewhitedory1]

Gooood Mawnin' Al! Wow, cool hot dogs! I once was at a hot dog factory that made there own dogs from scraps and all kinds of fillers, they tasted good but then it was kinda like mystery dogs! Yours are so superior that there should be a different name for what you made! Maybe Lumnah Dogs?

[@LumnahAcres]

That must have been a weird tour to take.

[@anashomestead5919]

I am liking that cart too. My brother had some sort of a wooden one on his farm some thirty-one years ago. I remember I used to lug it around to stand on to put in fence posts by myself. It gave me the added height I needed to use that tool for driving metal stakes into the ground. Very convenient. I am gonna need one of those in my near future. :D yay!

[@bigricky63]

Should teach them goats to pack and pull that cart, it could be great fun for Olivia and nice utility for hikes. My double first cousins first granddaughters name is Olivia and she a breath of fresh air and sunshine for our family.

[@lisabooker6405]

So glad you got yourself a cart. I know you’re young and healthy and strong but it’s sooooo easy to hurt back. I know you’re careful and I’m NOT being a know it all troll, I just have had 7 spinal surgeries. I have so many rods and screws holding me together it’s ridiculous. I honestly just care and don’t want to ever see anyone go through what I have. I encourage my own kids (who’re adults too) to always take care of their joints, spine. Miss Livvie is doing so good with goats. Loved seeing her run out to help. She keeps at it and she’s gonna be as good at farming as the Rhodes “chiddlers.” She’s already as awesome! And just a sweetheart. I love how much she loves her animals. Figaro sure loves her. Just realized we didn’t see Pluto in this clip. She was probably avoiding the rain. LOL Our weather here in Ohio is insane too. We’ve topped 100 so many times it’s crazy and it’s only June. Can’t even go outside except early morning or late evening to water and tend the garden cause...well...I’m old...Hahahaha. They’ve seriously had air quality alerts literally every day though. Anywhooooo...I’ve rattled on enough. Sorry about that. I was just happy ya got you a cart and are taking care of yourself in that way, as well as growing yourself some awesome hotdogs!!! Have a great weekend. God Bless you all. ~Lisa

[@terencew9744]

Looking good All.... Al, with all these extra responsibilities and chores, make sure not to neglect your rest. Don't neglect your sleep and eat more Vitamin C rich food.

[@BornAgainFarmGirl]

We bought a garden wagon just like yours , we love it too . Tonight is our very first night at our new farm 😆👩🏻‍🌾😂 !

[@dianemurphy2840]

Please take care of yourself. If you need to take a day from vlogging please do. We'll miss you but understand 👍💟

[@leoncaruthers]

I've got a cart and a dump wagon. You won't regret it. Much easier than firing up the tractor every time you've got something to haul around.

[@FarmFreshIB]

I got "Tough 1 slow feed" hay bags for my sheep from State Line Tack. They are all canvas with a small net section that has small openings. It works for the sheep anyway.

[@jackywaldon359]

I'm glad to see if you broke down and bought yourself a cart it will make things a lot easier on you I'm sure. The hot dogs look delicious. The fruit of your labor.

[@CreatingEssence]

Those hot dogs look awesome!

[@natashasemrau3670]

Well anything to make life easier, when you work two jobs is a true need! I would have bought a cart too. Yesterday l lost your comment in the UT eathernet. Lotts of Figerooooo today, which is a good sign to me. Rain would be nice here , cuz temperatures are expected to be in the upper 90°. Have a good day!!!🍀🌷🍀🌷🍀🌷🍀🌷🍀🌷🍀🌷🍀🌷🌻🌻🌻

[@natashasemrau3670]

Thanks for Highlighting my comment! 🐷🐷🐷🐷🐖🐖🐖🐖🐷🐷🐷

[@jimtbay1]

I just LOVE your videos. I watch your channel every single day! Thank you for everything you share!

[@donaldmiller8629]

I got my garden wagon at T.S. It has sides that can be raised or lowered and also has a convertible handle that will hook up to my lawn tractor for towing.

[@jeannecooke4862]

Ohhhhhhh, wowwwwww! Thank you for sharing your recipe! A great Family Favourite!

[@FlatEarthReset3]

I used to work prep at a restaurant and had to make Italian sausage 3 to 4 times a week. The night before take your casing out put them in a cup of water with 1/8 cup of your pink salt and let them soak in the fridge 24 hours before using.. Then when you go to slide it in the tube you open it up and scoop up a little of that salt water so that by the time your done putting it on the tube that salt water brine you made passes through the entire intestine and you can skip that whole method at your sink :)

[@deanlong8841]

The three-point carry-all the back of your Kubota is a wonderful thing you can use it to move the firewood around I use mine as a ballast I either keep firewood in it or boulders when the backhoes not on it a B7510 I move everything with that I even use it as a lift in the bucket to work on equipment cuz I have severe back problems

[@lilbitatatime3763]

Ready for the heat wave?!?! In the winter a plastic child's toboggan works well for hauling too! Excellent channel "Blue Cactus Dairy Goat". Hot dogs look delicious! 👍

[@natasha_kasyanik]

вот это мясорубка и машинка для сосисок, супер =)

[@NicoleCChoque]

I got me one of those wagons! It's so handy. I got some big L bracket (like ones used to put up a shelf on the wall) to add sides to my wagon so I can move some gravel. The brackets fit in the channels underneath above each wheel. 😀👍

[@LumnahAcres]

That's a great idea

[@karengates8508]

So glad you got connected to BLUE CACTUS DAIRY GOAT YT CHANNEL....I’ve been watching Crystal for a while now.... Love the GARDEN CART 👍👍 Happy 4th Al, Gina & Olivia. BTW, Miss Olivia, I like your new T-Shirt from one of your channels subscribers.

[@gregkahle9046]

Cool garden cart, too bad it doesn't have a motor! Like your subs idea about rain barrels Everything looking good, hope you're feeling better.

[@wandaarganbright4056]

Try looking in the garden center for a metal window basket for under windows. I think it might work for an indoor hay rack for the goats. Lowe's has one that is black metal 30 inches long by 7 inches wide for about $15. Look it up and see what you think. I'm sure other places carry the same thing if you don't have a Lowe's near you. You could screw it to the inside of the goat barn.

[@erick.4793]

Wow, I've never seen a homemade farm raised hot dog. 👍😊

[@christinaoklaohio7926]

Nice cart ... glad you got that nothing wrong with a little help on the body. Smart move.

[@HansQuistorff]

Did you see my previous comment about making a key hole manger through the barn decider? It is very simple; Just move a board over so there is enough width for the neck but not the shoulders then make a notch at erect head height on each side to put the head through. Mostly they will keep the head in the manger when eating.

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

I love the cart, kooks like mine. We use it all the time.

[@cynthiaatlegacyhomestead5422]

Those dogs look good.. nothing like homemade..enjoy the day..

[@jimclaire7996]

Al, it looks as if I am the first again. Great video. Awesome information. The chickens, the goats and the pigs seem to be growing so fast. The goat seems to be giving you enough milk for your coffee. I enjoyed the video Al. Thanks for sharing!

[@LumnahAcres]

Yea we have been getting enough milk for coffee and drinking, which has been really nice!

[@SeeEnterGently]

Ya, with 3 of you I you don’t need much. We have 11 in our family so 1 ND gives us enough milk for coffee and for me to make soap. If I save up for a week I can do a big batch of kefir too. By this time next year, we will hopefully be milking goats, sheep and our cow (thankfully I have a lot of milking helpers here).

[@50shadesofgreen]

you can't beat homemade !!

[@bigricky63]

Al just build a small one like a magazine rack ( you know like that you would have sitting by your chair)that hangs on the wall, you could even put hangers on it so you could move it if you like.

[@majorvictory5660]

If you don't have them already, rain barrels would be nice for days like that

[@angelikabertrand4045]

When I was little my step dad and his brother in law in Germany made the best saumagen, wuerstchen sausages, blood sauges , allsorts of meats. Yum. I miss that taste.

[@faithfifield7278]

Check out 1870 Homstead, she used a tall laundry basket, cut some of the holes a little larger and hung it on a hook but the handles. Looked like it worked quite well.

[@chelemichele1524]

Carts a great idea carry more and less stress on your body👍👍 🌻have a wonderful day🌻

[@joycemetheny8338]

Worked for an ent and i can tell just from your everyday voice that you have moderate to severe allergies. You could benefit from treatment especially considering the number of allergens you are exposed to on a daily basis.

[@sjniles]

I have a garden cart similar to yours, use it all the time.

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

Michigansnowpony did a video on a hay feeder that she built for her goats.

[@randyrejer4219]

Don't feel guilty about the cart. Smart move.

[@genesnyder2985]

If it keeps raining like that your next project will be a boat🙂 hotdogs that you know what’s inside 👍

[@gregkahle9046]

Or an ark!

[@MissTheresaDANCE]

Very cool to see that process. Would you consider doing an in-depth instructional video on making hot dogs from scratch someday? Would love that!

[@Chantilly871]

Your hot dogs make me wish it was next year (that's when we are getting pigs), lol..glad you liked Blue Cactus milking tips!

[@ka6148]

Love my yard cart too!!!

[@leederdavid4782]

We're in Central Ontario - same weather, and a more Pine pollen then I've seen in 10 years. I thought I had a cold too - but just allergies (which I don't usually have). Feel better!

[@marianneoprisko7737]

Saw a hay rack on other channel (if I could remember who) V shaped on the side of fence or wall made of pallet wood. Hay is off the ground, available a little at a time (narrow end down). I'll try to get you a reference.

[@pepecocomax]

Great video really enjoyed watching the process.

[@dianehall5345]

Think it may be allergies. I have the same symptoms. Lots of pollen/muggy today. That meat grinder has way more horse power than my Kitchen Aid! You must enjoy having it. Home made hotdogs are the best! Perfect for the 4th!

[@LumnahAcres]

The meat grinder work great! We used a little one the first time we butchered our pigs and it took way to long to grind the sausage

[@virginiareid5336]

I'd never seen hot dogs made before. Cool

[@BraxxJuventa]

Nice one Lumnah's! :)

[@joolzmac1]

Aussies call sausages and hotdogs mystery bags! Very cool that you make your own ‘flavour’ bags - no mystery ingredients in there! 🌭🌭🌭

[@bigricky63]

Listening to that rain makes me wonder why no rain collection systems? Would be great for gardening,pet hydration. Off the shop-house and barn and outdoor kitchen.

[@heathercortes9567]

Can I have the recipe for the hot dogs, please? My kids will love you forever since I don't let them eat that garbage at the store. Just in case anyone is as neurotic about crawlies as I am...I usually keep spices in jelly jars or bigger next to a coffee grinder I bought just for that purpose. Whole spices are also a LOT cheaper at your local Indian grocery store. I buy huge amounts (I have a lot of kids) for way less than the grocery store or Amazon there. They usually have small bags too in case you don't want a lot, but they last damn near forever in a mason jar especially if you vacuum seal most of it for later.

[@williamlewis3965]

mount a pallet to the barn wall with the slats vertical

[@wildtimbrown]

I'm going with the 9year old palate. Ketchup RULES!

[@daisyduke0809]

I'm new to your channel. And I am enjoying all you do. I raise boer goats and a couple Nubians. And I am raising 2 pigs right now. I give them the goat milk and they love it. We make our own hay racks for our goats.

[@1happycountrymom677]

I think I prefer the canning jar with the lid as opposed to the tiny pail. Seems more sanitary and convenient.

[@thomasmaphis7203]

Super nice family

[@eileenpalumbo6578]

Great video! Hotdogs look yummy.

[@cedarwoman2]

Eating local honey will help you with your allergies. Love the videos as always. Have a great weekend. ;)

[@cherylharless281]

If you have the Pneumatic tires that came with the cart, do yourself a favor and get the "Never Flat" kind. You will thank me for that advice! :)

[@joanneganon7157]

Sorry to say you are sick. We had it here in VT yucky. Get some rest if you can .

[@jeffmardling]

Hi Al - great job - could you tell me the model and name of your thermometer and rain gauge (how it’s installed?) - I was more intrigued by that today...haha - thanks

[@rickrhoton9012]

Hey Al, I have a friend who raises goats and has for years. She uses bags for her hay so the goats can’t get into it.

[@williamkolis1567]

Al this video really resonates with me. My wife recently sent me to the grocery store for among other things sausage. It was so disheartening to see all the ingredients I couldn’t pronounce and blatant added chemicals. Why can’t we expect to have just ground pork and seasonings? Where did things change and the consumer just assumed that the food companies know what is safe to consume? Just sad. Hopefully one day I can do something similar to what your family is doing. Until then I just have to keep trusting in God to keep me healthy.

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

Like the grinder

[@ynotshowme2ur3times]

Wish i could of intercepted you buying that cart.........we got a tractor supply version of the garilla carts dump cart........much better for alot of reasons. We just fill it with water to bring to barn........and it dumps good

[@LumnahAcres]

Bummer. Thanks

[@kevinbaker6168]

Good job on the homemade hot dogs. Only thing I would have done was smoked them over a low heat, just to give them a little more flavor.

[@bobbysalazar8865]

Woah your leather Apron is awesome 👍🏻

[@adriandelgado7657]

so if you put some kind of latch or something that holds the door it be easier for you to feed the chickens I don't know the name of the device it's just two piece of metals when they're straight that lock into place it'll be easier on your shoulders

[@susannielsen8688]

You have a regular butcher shop with that specialized equipment!

[@swiftytane4421]

got to have rain for the garden

[@mountainviews5025]

Great job

I am also happy to finder your channel again i drop my tap a year ago and broke it and couldn't remember how to spell your last name right everybody call there channel some kind of home stead, miss Olivia is growing and have got more pretty like her mama Gina and the is still security and you work hard.

[@walterlessing2963]

I still love your channel. I'm amazed by your hotdog making. Is there a recipe you can share? God bless

[@LumnahAcres]

I need to write it down and share it on our website.

[@vickiewhite4603]

sslf family dad has a good video about a goat feeder made with pallet wood

[@herbertjohnson7986]

get a horse hay rack and line it with smaller wire for the goats

[@4864shadow]

Get you a defuser and some peppermint oil and it will help your breathing

[@vaeagle1]

don't forget the chili too. lol

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

Ever tried making a coarse ground hot dog?? Just grind it twice and stuff it
