small farm life: winter

[@patmadix172]

Love the sound of the clocks a a good fire. That’s a lot of egg washing! Eggcelent

[@michaelburt2233]

I wouldn’t trade the small farm life for anything.. it IS the most peaceful and it IS the most rewarding. Love your videos Pete.

[@APR1037]

Very nice! BTW, it was so eye-opening to see how many eggs you have washed by hand. It makes us appreciate the work that goes into delivering truly farm fresh products from small farms. Well worth the premium!

[@chrisbrackett9779]

8:23 I just watched this video, I love the life. Peaceful on a down day and still peaceful on a busy day even when Patty is yelling.❤❤

[@Sophia1a1]

Watching this relieves my stress in life. The joy of simple life.

[@janicecoxharrell8570]

I love your quiet time in the winter. I agree with you about wood heat. It warms you up like no other!!

[@emy484]

I love watching your videos ever since I had this sudden urge within me to learn how to start a life on farm! Trust that yours is the most effective way of educating naive like me.

[@billroberts3864]

42,000 eggs is a lot of eggs to wash. I am glad you figured out the verge on the Seth Thomas clock which will make the clock keep better time. Thanks for sharing some of your winter home life.

[@rogeriopaiva4892]

Dear Pete Your video reflects some of our chores here in Canada in a small farm. Two things called my wife Claudia and I attention they were the eggs washing and getting the fireplace going in the morning. If one day you come to Canada near Toronto please be our guest.

[@JustaFewAcresFarm]

Hi Rogerio, we like routines, and those two are a staple of winter life here. I greatly appreciate your invitation!

[@bretdavisdmd]

I absolutely loved that video. How peaceful and refreshing compared to most loud, obnoxious youtube videos. Thanks!

[@vangiefich]

I agree! I love the slower winter days. Your home looks peaceful...I like that! Our home is peaceful too.

[@charlenewenthold5150]

Thank you for bringing back a lot of memories as I was a child

[@CrazyDaisy8008]

I love your videos!! shows the true nature of living off the land

[@zodszoo]

I know Summer 2021 is now upon us, but I find myself wishing I could give this a second thumbs up! 👍👍🖖

[@geneellens6939]

All of your animals are adorable. Pete you cooked yourself a beautiful omlet there. Both my parents grew up on small farms and We love listening to there stories they are similar to yours.

[@markandrzejak997]

Awesome video. Not very exciting but a really interesting subject. Thanks for all your videos!

[@Shiloh3498]

I could never ever ever eat the same breakfast every day...Lol 😆 Great video!

[@jameshorn6848]

Thanks Pete, so calming

[@robertholding701]

Enjoying your videos Pete, thank you for sharing your life with us.

[@paoemantega8793]

Thank you Peter, I pull the same face when concentrating ;)

[@treborkeeper5052]

This is a great video, thank you so much for sharing.

[@davidoutdoors74]

Same here Pete, love my outdoor wood boiler and my avalon inside wood stove

[@JL-xn3zy]

Beautiful family and life. God bless

[@MichaelYuhas]

Love the alarm clock. With that and the daily repetition of your farm routines, this reminds me of the movie Groundhog Day, in a good way.

[@jaypino2642]

You and your family are wonderful l respect what you do and always look forward to watching your videos. Thank you from Chattanooga,Tn.

[@peterschlater5756]

One of my favorite videos to date

[@piquat1]

Thus channel kind of tempers my pie in the sky expectations of becoming a small farmer. It’s a LOT of work!

[@shnobi24]

It seems so peaceful in the winter

[@MichaelB8391]

Just discovered you last week. Am really enjoying your farm, how you keep and relate to the livestock, your reflections, even the jokes! A real pleasant experience to see the variety, too. Keep it up!

[@greatnorthern706]

As a lifelong Minnesotan who loves winter, I wholeheartedly approve of quieter, slower winter days where one can take a little time to indulge in their hobbies and reflect. Great video Pete.

[@BeighO]

Loving the farm life.

[@mokpot]

wooden geared clock! So cool!

[@aussiepressconferences.4755]

At 3:19 My wife and I never sit facing one another, at home or at a restaurant as it’s not natural to oppose someone you love. We always sit elbow to elbow, facing the same obstacles, together in the same direction. It does make a difference and after 20 years we heard that it’s something that European couples always do.

[@MikeL-vu7jo]

very nice thanks for sharing

[@ClearlyBlissful]

I had a mini farm in Portageville, and it brings back memories. I do wonder: where do you sell the eggs in winter? Thanks.

[@ClarenceW.D.]

I’m a retired electrician and I really enjoy your videos since discovering them this past summer. Pete. I’d like to ask a question about Hillary’s egg washing count. Does it include the cracked eggs that you keep for your family? Because if you’re eating a three egg omelette every morning, atop of the number for the rest of your family’s consumption, she’s washing a lot more than your 40 plus thousand; at the time of this video. Keep the videos coming.

[@SynthToshi]

Thank you for this.

[@williamrobinson4265]

you'd think after buying all those clocks he'd have accumulated enough time to fix them

[@darrenwebb3266]

Have you ever done a wood chopping video? Love the channel, you got a wicked little small holding,

[@leslie_francine]

Great video! Love your channel

[@nancycolvin4604]

Could the clocks wood gears have fluctuations from winter to summer from humidity? Here in Virginia our wood doors shrink / swell so they won’t shut in summer and let air in winter! Just a thought. I so enjoy your stories.

[@juliannrowland6552]

Thanks for sharing.

[@charlieslorenson1861]

Oh my God praise the Lord 40 mm wash my hand oh my God that's all I got to say love your videos I have learned so much about farming from you and I'm from an island in Alaska

[@dirtroadfarm.4024]

You're right, nothing like a wood stove! I love mine. Just curious, do your children ever help with the chores? My little brother never had an interest in our farm growing up lol. My dad would make him help with chores but he did such a bad Job he just stopped making him do them. Lol

[@matthewtaylor2185]

I notice a banjo and guitar back there and I'm wondering when the picking and grinning happens?

[@jackjill414]

Does the wood stove heat the whole house? If so, how do you transfer the heat to the other rooms in the house? Nice video and keep up the good work!

[@dwaynekoblitz6032]

That’s simply perfect.

[@paybo3573]

Calming video

[@RidgeLife]

Nice farm. Just subbed!

[@vijayvijaynsnbdbdbhxb]

What's tougher than owning a farm ..... Owning a farm in areas where it snows

[@bgrant201]

You still use a alarm clock ⏰ 🤩. Love the videos

[@JustaFewAcresFarm]

Thanks Brandon! We've had that clock for 20+ years. Old reliable.

[@ronaldvankappel5505]

My Grandmother told me too never wash the Egs, because off disturbing the little Wachs protection. The Eg will faster dry out and you can ceep it less longer. What's your Opinion.?

[@LynetteWhitePhotography]

Yeah, we don't wash eggs in Australia either. Washing removes a natural protective layer that keeps the egg fresher for longer. But we also keep salmonella infections out of our chicken population, so our chickens & eggs are healthier than the USA.

[@edmartin875]

@@CaribouOrange I don't know the rules in Europe but I know they do not refrigerate their eggs like we do in the US.

[@bufordchambers7089]

Just curious does your cat Ezara get to come to enjoy the wood stove heat?

[@davidoutdoors74]

How many chickens do you normally have at one time

[@horsebee1]

I note that you mix white and brown eggs. Is this deliberate because that is what your customers want or do they just not mind. In this country if you did that the uproar of complaint would be huge as most people are very fussy about their eggs with brown being favored but those who like white will yell if there is a brown one in their carton. We are just seeing the blue eggs in the farmers markets here but not in main stream yet.

[@edmartin875]

One of their market videos addressed that. He said their competitors sold eggs as either all white or all brown. Thet have white, brown, blue, and green eggs mixed in every dozen (the only egg sellers that do that) and their buyers love the idea and their sales went way up when they started selling them that way.

[@APR1037]

I don’t have strong feelings either way but I think that getting a mix is very nice.

[@johnzink3309]

thx

[@shawntownsend8278]

How are you still collecting eggs my hens stopped all together nothing and im in mild winter south Carolina??????

[@dmeads5663]

Must be his breed of chickens.

[@scottkeeports2308]

Give your Egg Washer a HUGE RAISE!

[@fabriciorodriguez6099]

[@aussiepressconferences.4755]

I’d like to take you on a journey...if I may....
