[@jennfetters4909]

That soil looks amazing compared to what u started with! Great job!

[@sandyc6569]

👍

[@maryjemison1101]

Mending the beautiful Soil 🍀🌿👍

[@drewhillfarms]

I like the short 10-15 minute vlogs.

[@donnalong4218]

I totally agree! Also want to wish your boys a very safe, happy and blessed birthday! My b-day is next week.

[@melodyanderson4338]

Way to go guys on doing 5 vlogs a week! That’s awesome! Super hard…but u guys do hard work well! Praying incredible blessings upon blessings for all ur vlogs! One day we would love to meet y’all! If u ever come to Kentucky hit us up! Hugs from the Anderson Homestead!

[@quentinnagel8660]

Saw in the last video the tiller was struggling... every thing has its time....

[@kristenhasleftthebuilding1380]

👩‍🌾👨‍🌾🚜🏡🎉🎊 5 days of the Hollars I'm super happy & excited for this brilliant idea! 🥰🙏💚🌿👨‍🌾👩‍🌾🏡🎉🎊

[@Farley25]

Let the boys loose with that tractor. They did a great job! I remember handling ours in our family garden when I was that age.

[@dennisgriebenow8215]

Amen, to the 5 times a week! I love it! Blessings from Wisconsin, where it's 22 degrees right now.......

[@sandybuchanan3479]

Excited to see what you will be doing!

[@kimlettau4167]

How awesome daily! 👌 Woohoo

[@jodidixon8619]

I was so glad to hear you would be posting more often. I truly enjoy them. I’m not sure why, but it seems when there are long gaps between postings, even though I’ve subscribed, those postings seem to be dropped out. Last time this happened I finally searched and found several that had not dropped into my feed. I always give 👍🏻 to help your channel, but if this is happening to others we don’t even get the chance. I’m sure all of this could have been said more concise and eloquently 🙂 but I hope you get what I’m trying to convey.

[@TheHollarHomestead]

Yes, the algorithm likes consistency, so if we go too long in between posting then it doesn’t push us out to as many people, even if you are subscribed. It takes sometime to find “favor” again.

[@jodidixon8619]

@@TheHollarHomestead well be assured when I haven’t heard from you in a while I’ll be seeking you out! I’m 70 years old and have ALWAYS wanted to homestead- just couldn’t find a partner with the same aspirations. I’ve been watching your journey from the start and you all have done a tremendous job, especially considering the land and it’s scape you are dealing with! In such a short time in the big scheme of things you have accomplished so much!! You are truly building a life not just for now but for the future of your family. Great job!!!

[@yeowellnesscollective6433]

I think I missed the explanation for why you did the soil the way you did..?

[@ashleylovepace1941]

really want a dairy cow but am nervous to go for it. What do you think? I have 5 boys and they drink a lot of milk, eat yogurt, cheese out the wahzoo.

[@helenreid7712]

Wow . Does your beds not compact.

[@lisadixon2494]

Wow, an almost daily Hollar adventure, that's a real treat for us all ! Please take care and don't over burden yourselves. Best wishes and blessing from the UK

[@JeanneDee-zz5th]

Yay! Daily vlogs! Meg....soap...bread...dinners...Buggy....Ben....boys...pigs...vehicles...gardening...an unending list of content! Will be so happy to see you all more often.

[@kimmieguidry]

Whoop! I, for one, would be thrilled for more Hollar Homestead. Will that mean your new neighbors, Sow the Land, might begin posting more as well…. LOVE both of your channels ❤️❤️❤️

[@sandyc6569]

👍

[@mommabecky83]

Don’t worry if its not perfectly edited we love y’all and this is gonna be amazing 😻

[@trekfortruth2841]

Ben and Meg, just knowing there are families like yours out there gives me great hope for this country...great work!

[@bryonyhellis]

Gosh, that calf grew quickly, twins too! Looking forward to 5 vlogs a week!

[@sandyc6569]

👍

[@juliannedispain1637]

Great video. Kids grow up so fast. You all have fun on the homestead!

[@ajourneymaryb]

I'm so glad that your going to make more videos because I love watching both of you. I think you keep it real and full of various things. Lunch looks great. Love the garden beds.

[@TXNLaurenMcN]

Yay!! I was thrilled to see a second video so soon after the last one, but then to hear you are planning to upload 5 days a week is like the cherry on top of the unexpected ice cream sundae! Sorry that your rotor tiller died, but it'll be a lot of fun seeing what you come home from the junkshop with and how many lifetimes it lives. All your farm equipment is like a bunch of cats with nine lives each, thanks to your skills, Ben.

[@alicegilbert4186]

I can't believe how fast the boys have grown up since the start of the motor home. Has it really been that long? Good gracious

[@SunshineAlwayssassy]

Definitely went by fast!! Wow!! 🙏

[@simoneconsciousobserver3105]

I was all excited that we were getting back to back vlogs from y'all! I know we not supposed to have favorites. I have no shame expressing that y'all are my favs next to Art and Bri, who I've been greatly missing. And Justin Rhodes gets all the credit for me watching homestead families daily. Best mood elevators I've found. My birthday is in a few weeks too! I'll be way more that 15 yo lol I'm expecting my 2nd great grandbaby in Sept and my 9th grandchild in late June early July🤗

[@thomaspaine6682]

I appreciate the musical tastes of whoever is doing the editing.

[@mattsara2802]

You’ve got this! When you do 5 a week it becomes part of your daily routine and even makes editing faster. How exciting and I heard you have new neighbors. A family of 3 that likes to build things and are also from CA. May God Bless you with a new used tiller.

[@j.p.9295]

What a wonderful weather you are having 🌞. It is so great to see your boys work with you on the land . They have grown so much. Blessings 🙌

[@45Colleen1]

Sorry about the rototiller! I would love to have one. Thank you for sharing with us your preparing the beds for seeds/plants! God Bless! 💜

[@alexcarrn28]

We are so happy to be seeing you 5 days a week. Thanks for sharing your great family with us. God Bless you all.

[@smalls3637]

allot of us will now be looking for you more often and incorporating into our routines

[@scarletbluefield2542]

Yay! I am really looking forward to more content in March!

[@revmcl1]

This is exciting news! I remember the days when videos were posted more often, and I am very happy that those days are back again! And Ben, you are a wonderful blogger and very interesting to watch all your experiments and creations. Love watching your family.

[@brendachadwick8613]

We are all excited n blessed to have you’s entertaining n giving some the know how on things 🤗🤣🤪 30 DAYS YIPPY 😘

[@jerrybrady9103]

March is always better with The Hollars.🤗

[@rhondasnair9304]

OMG Don't scare my like that I started to cry as I was clicking the notification. Thank you for clearing that up in the 1st 10 seconds.

[@carriem7832]

I agree…bad choice for click bait…..….thought someone passed…😲

[@emyreotutar3187]

I cant wait for everyday vlog😄

[@DebbieC624]

Yay!! More videos 😁👏👏👏. So excited. I said this the other day, but your garden beds look so beautiful. Excited to see what you’ll be growing this spring. Have a blessed day 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕💕👩🏻‍🌾

[@therindels1680]

Awesome! Miss seeing your family! A little bit of Hollar is nice, a lot of the Hollar is the Bomb!!!😊

[@simplehomeschool1293]

Would love to see a frugal living series. Along the lines of frugal in the house and on the homestead

[@AliciasInTheKitchen]

Awe, my one and only kiddo turns 15 next week. Gets you all in the feels to think about it!

[@Bex-rg8pj]

I’m so excited!👏👏👏

[@virginiagrenier8572]

Frankentiller - love it! As they say reduce, reuse, repurpose - you are rocking it!

[@Bigninjon]

Well haven't I died and gone to heaven, 5 days a week, thank you for working so hard for us!

[@MKCarol-ms7lg]

Sounds like a great plan, seeing the Hollars every day.

[@joyceruffcorn1595]

Very excited that you’ll be videoing 5 days a week!! I love your channel!! ❤️ 📷

[@cassityart7001]

Am soooooo there with you.🌞❤️🌱. We are across the mountains from you and I got my first sun burn today while compost mixing, cutting the yard, raking the grass and giving it to the laying hens. A massive mound of grass looks now like funky 1970’s green shag carpet. So the compost creators are back at it. 🐓🥚🌱🎃🥬. Happy thoughts of Spring to you all! 🙂🌱

[@WildOnesHomestead]

Spring is still a ways from showing its face over here yet. (Wisconsin) I'm ready for it though! Starting a whole new garden this year after selling my old homestead and moving and starting over. A milk cow is somewhere on my future list too. Ha

[@BrendaJMay]

YAY IS RIGHT!!! 😜👍 Been Kinda Missing Watching Yall More!😞 YAHOO!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Much Love & GOD Bless Yall ❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🥰😘 @ Hollar Homestead

[@ramonasandoval1833]

I have been watching you since you sold your house I was with you when you were looking for a homestead and I was with you when you found it I've enjoyed watching you grow thank you for sharing all that you've gone through I truly enjoy watching

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Hi.... Meg and Ben nice to see you, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣🐥🐄🐖🌱🌺🌹🌿🌻🌼🌸🍀🌷🏡🎥👍👍👍

[@MsCaterific]

Because you've committed to vlogging 5 days a week, I'll recommit to watch/let play all adds and comment every vlog for the month of March. Clearly I have the easier job, but I'm rooting for you guys.

[@melanieduff9623]

I remember when I saw Meg just about every day I missed that .So looking forward to the tag teaming. I Love the farming aspect of homesteading but I got so used to seeing Meg and I missed that part of your channel can’t wait.

[@gaylewatkins4685]

WooHoo!! I love the Hollars and I'm thrilled that you will be posting 5 days a week. Great news!!!

[@erin2535]

Why don't you feed Biscuit a little bit of grain every night in the barn when you put him up? Just like a cupful or something. Would that help him be more willing to behave when it comes time to catch him every night - is that a thing?

[@mrlldale]

Hey you’re one of our favorite shows I’m so happy you guys are gonna be on every day it’s incredible you guys inspire us I guess I’m kinda living through you guys I hope the one day to get my family out there on the farm homesteading God bless you and your family

[@southloupriverhomestead4696]

Great News More Vlogs! You guys could try to find a sponsor for the rotor tiller. If huge channels can get tractors than maybe a smaller channel could get a rototiller.

[@sandyc6569]

👍

[@theunsteadysteader]

Ahhhh let the "bare footin" begin!!! Ben, I hear ya about those young men just having been born last week. My oldest will be 42 in May.... she was born last month. Time is sure a crazy thing. Enjoy your children while you can! Lookin forward to extra videos, ya'll rock!!!!

[@lauracarter2223]

My oldest will be 42 in October. Totally agree, enjoy the journey!

[@juanesebuitrago4040]

Biscuit’s face looks like a little doe! I’m loving 5 days a week of the Hollar family!

[@christajennings3828]

Yay! More Hollar content! I always miss you folks when there's a long gap.

[@pinkyandthebrainrants7851]

Looking forward to the extra vlogs and more importantly shorter gaps 😁, buffy's taken a big stretch wat ya'll feeding her😏💖💖

[@dianawilliams-coe7747]

The music was on it this video...

[@cheekysaver]

Yayyyy I am so looking forward to daily blogs! Do remember some special stuff can be held over for a separate vid later. BTW... if you can get some local spent grain from a brewery... free feed with lots of nutrients. I know you don't drink Ben... but your animals sure do loveeee to eat. Turning spent grains into milk, bacon and chicken would be kinda cool. You have to look into what animals it works for... cows are the only thing I know about and that is because I asked a guy that owns a brewery what he does with his spent grains. He sends them to a farm he calls moooooorasic park because the cows get so big off of this feed. I guess they love it. Don't think you can get a weeks worth at a time without drying it tho. There are enough sugars left behind to have it ferment. You don't want loopy moo's. LOL

[@Dovejep]

RIP rototiller, may you find another one quickly! I love how eager your boys are to help you out. ☺

[@dianecharles881]

So excited that you’re putting up more videos, I really enjoy your family. So amazing how much the boys have grown…. Almost men now !

[@cynthialewis7080]

The Hollars, Art and Bri, and Sow the Land in one day... YAY

[@greghill254]

Looking forward to seeing you all 5 days a week! The boys look like they enjoy the work! Nice to see.

[@annieisenhower8138]

Super that we get to see more of the Hollar Homestead! You guys knocked out a lot of work in this one.

[@elainejohnson6866]

[@ithinklikeacow]

[@radmilamiljanic5977]

[@archaprice3372]

[@vickiecahanin6594]

YES! Five days with one of my favorite families

[@basshere7587]

Old motor as a kid was a instant bad idea gocart. Then dad came home. Wonderful channel.

[@KayOHara4]

Maybe your oldest Boys could help you blog.

[@johntatum8088]

Enjoyed the fast time-lapse.

[@terrilepine9065]

Wow, an almost daily Hollar adventure, that's a real treat for us all

[@Kelleena1on1]

Yay Hollars 5 days a week :-) ty Jesus.

[@aromaofhope]

Good for you! I'll be watching!

[@brianwood586]

Looks warm there still -20 celsius at night 2-3 feet of snow

[@wisewoman7906]

You guys are probably my favorite channel, and I watch almost all the homesteading channels in the Midwest, plus Justin Rhodes.

[@lindapeterson2684]

You guys always get a lot done….and always an adventure…look forward to the Month of March…..Let’s see the kids input too!

[@luella2u152]

I know vlogging 5 days a week is work, but I'm looking forward to seeing what you post. I've been watching since you were first looking for your homestead. It's been very enjoyable. I'm with you vicariously and in spirit. My son says I'm getting too old to do it myself. I still hold out hope that we will once again live on land and have chickens and a garden.

[@shod61]

Pretty excited about seeing you 5 times a week! I’ve been binge watching you all for the past week and I’m almost all caught up on your full story now. You guys are so amazing.

[@louantonucci3123]

Duck tape will fix that rite up

[@jenniferjohns5087]

I do, so, love that second tune.

[@egsuperduty]

Y’all are back on track. Really like this one. New energy emerging. Time to have some fun!!!!

[@jeanettewilkinson6362]

Looking forward to seeing more of the Hollars love watching your content,also I was wondering why you weren’t working on the old farm house but it makes sense now after watching your last vlog,hi from Australia

[@ronnisimmons9992]

We've missed ya. All the farm boys grow muscles without pressing iron or any of those other contraptions. Your peers will always wish they were you. Keep it up guys!! So glad to see you all at it again.

[@carolmcmillan1108]

Yay …daily vlogs 👏👏👏👌

[@monikastep5711]

Ok I have to ask.... how early do you two start your chores? Especially the cow chores? AND YAHOOOOO 5xWk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not sure how you two can manage alll those chores and 5xWk vlogging but YEY for us!!! :) Thank you ;-)

[@angelapalmieri3883]
