Only the Best Stuff From One of America’s Best Farms | Full Circle Farm

If I had to choose a farm in which I could never leave, it would be Full Circle Farm of Florida. They grow over 95% of their own food, grow it properly and grow enough to make a living within their community. Rotationally grazed A2/A2 dairy, forested pigs, pastured chickens and all kinds of veggies.

Watching reruns is ok. I have been following the channel since before the farm tour.

[@christiscamelotgardens47]

Yeah, isn't it lovely that they made sure we would have content even while they are on a much earned vacation? 😆

[@christiscamelotgardens47]

That comes across as sarcastic, but not how I mean it. I love watching the reruns and imagining them getting some relaxation in 🌞

[@jackallen7680]

Beautiful Homestead! I am in Wisconsin, and have worked on Dairy farms for a decade. Calves are taken from the mothers a couple hours after birth. It's neat to see an operation that leaves the calves with the mothers. Thank's for the video!

[@ajb.822]

I grew up on a dairy farm in WI, and while I probably won't be back into dairy farming soon if ever, I also like to learn more natural ways to do things. Most of the time, the calf is removed as soon as you see it post-birth/it's licked off ( some don't even allow for the cow licking her own calf off, due to Johnny's disease ( " Yoh-neez " ) being able to be spread by saliva too, allegedly, and that had gotten to be a real problem within the dairy industry ( we always still let them though ). Anyways, for those who worry, the cows generally don't mind much, if at all, not having had time to bond with them. I just prefer it as #1: God made them to be together & #2: Having to feed the calf yourself can be more expensive and is way more risky with their health.

[@becca318]

Woww great thing to know, put copper in the water to stave off the worms! I may watch this again for things I might have missed.

[@ajb.822]

Copper can be one of those minerals to be careful with, btw tho. Sheep for one, can't have as much of it as cattle, and in people anyways, it competes with or otherwise affects your zinc levels/needs. So, just a few reasons to know more about how it may affect which animal your using it for, and esp. considering if any is in a mineral or feed you offer.

[@sonyagregory5711]

Now that's a super farm. I was so impressed with their children. Those kids will be a blessing to the whole world. I remember when you first visited this farm! Amazing family. If only all kids could grow up this way!❤❤❤🐄🐄🐄🐖🐖🐖🐐🐐🐐

It's sad how Justin doesn't even try to control the flies. It looks like his cows wear a black blanket! It's cruel.

Arun Kumar has his own channel now! Awesome! Everyone should support Arun too!

[@paulatwood998]

I watched several of his videos last night and found them very interesting. I really like that hundred-year-old Farmhouse that he and his wife reside in. Come to think of it, I never realized that he was married and had a teenage son.

[@marygordon3032]

I just love watching how the farms operate and how rewarding it is to have family to do different things on the farm. That’s progress, thanks Justin for sharing! 👏👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯💯

But why isn't it bad for pigs also?

[@c.s.9427]

@@Cali_909 by the time it gets to the pigs it is fermented so it loses a lot of the sugar and benefits their digestive system like probiotics to us.

Thanks for the tour, interview and gorgeous animals, and pretty new kids.

[@margaretjohnson4413]

What a fantastic fly control method and only needs to be used when the cows come in to be milked. I am sure they feel the benefit too as well as keeping the milking area fly controled.

[@brendagervais5566]

Excellent share. And great that the kids can earn from what they look out for. So appreciate

Take notes Justin on the chair he is caring his child with on his back...he is smart because he is not going to cause his child to be bo-legged like your doing to your son...please observe and see where you can get one!!

Now this is how it should be done. Great animal husbandry! Happy healthy pigs. Great success with the chicks.

[@darlaherbst5929]

Definitely!! It's a joy to watch farming done correctly!

What a lovely family and farm. Seeing the children walking barefoot reminds me of when I was a kid walking all over the place barefooted. Could not do that now. Funny to see Mr Brown so small. Soon Henry will be that big.

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing Justin!

Nice visit on the farm.

[@wes9451]

That kid is a wonderful incarnation of the farm girl stereotype from every version of little house on the prairie. Its great when the younger generations take pride in the work they do. Solves for that general lack of purpose when you're buying everything from the grocery store.

Hey Justin, I’ve had family and friends struggle with Lyme also. I watch your channel to learn how to run my small farm in the Philippines. However, I keep researching the pre-antibiotics cures for the spirochete pathogens. Malaria was affective as it caused high fevers that the spirochete could not survive. So, hyperthermia via hot tub, Red light chamber, electric blanket etc. Keep temp to 103/ 104 and keep ice pack to chill the head. Thanks for the education. God bless you all.

[@CHARISSAJACOBSON]

Cheers me up on a hard day. Thanks

Really enjoy your channel. This lifestyle is a dream for my family and I right now but we are learning a lot from yours and others videos. We are even gonna start dipping our feet making videos. We are gonna focus on laying hens and gardening this year. Anyway keep up the good work and awesome content.

I am so disappointed that you didn't give Arun the send off he deserved. It almost makes me think the Crockers were telling the truth about how you treat people. Of course because you didn't it leaves people to draw their own conclusions. I do love watching your Family dynamic Justin and I don't want to come across in a rude way, but to us your life is a TV show and it seems like we missed an episode .

I always thought Arun loved working for Justin and his Family.I just didn't get how they were erased like they were never there.

[@darlaherbst5929]

@@beekind4141 Arun did enjoy working for the Rhodes and all the viewers loved Arun! Arun kept the homestead running while Justin was ill, cooked for the family, did everything that he was asked to do, and always had that big smile on his face. Then he was gone, with no goodbyes, no farewell dinner party, and no explanation from Justin. Days later Justin casual said, "Arun went to India". Which was not true, he was still in NC living with friends because he had to leave the Rhodes rental house!! He had to stay with his friends for 3 weeks until they got a flight to India!!! The trip was not planned for at this time!! Justin did not invite Arun or Randolf (carpenter) to the Employee Appreciation Party! Arun had no knowledge of this party! At the party Justin said that Arun "couldn't make it" to the party! Another lie, why?? I made many comments on Justin's channel, like many others did! Justin told Arun to stop me from commenting on his channel anymore! So on Arun's channel, Arun thanked me and asked me to not comment on Justin's channel anymore. I was letting the truth be known and that didn't go over very well. I may add later...need a break!

If all children had a period of time to be exposed to farm life, the irresponsibility , lawnessness and dependancy mentality in the youth and adults today would be much less. More responsible citizens with excellent work ethic would be degeloped.

[@darlaherbst5929]

Look at those pigs! They are ALL PLUMP, HAPPY, and FRIENDLY! They have a beautiful LARGE SPACE to explore and food, whenever they want it! They ALL have AUTOMATIC FEEDERS, whether they are a piglet or a pregnant sow! They are ALL CONTENT and have little to no desire to break out of their pens! The sows, probably, have LARGE HEALTHY LITTERS because of CONSTANT PROPER NUTRITION! Justin you have seen this proper care and the successful results, why do you not use it??

[@ajb.822]

Keep in mind that currently, it's winter and Justin is keeping older pigs for breeding. They're not little and young nor a busy momma ( expending energy making milk ). So, a huge, strong and older pig is probably going to work harder at getting out, or into things, and in winter it can be impossible to get those mobile fence's posts into the ground, or in-advisable to be on the pasture for a few reasons. I think initially, he was working to show folks that it can be done, for those without much land, so raised them on bedding in that carport. While not as ideal, that's a pretty good life too, esp. with variety of garden scraps :) !

[@darlaherbst5929]

@@ajb.822 You are so lost, it sounds like you have very little to no understanding of proper animal care! I will not waste my time explaining it to you!
