I would love to see a video on your maggot bucket. Would that be possible? Have you had any problems with skunk or coyote's with drawing the preditors in? I have my chicken yard half in the woods and half not and it is fenced about a half acre. Some of the area's of fencing is 5' and most is 4'. I believe Coyotes can jump that easily.

I watched a video where a farmer had three gardens around or connected to a chicken house. The farmer watched how the chickens would go to roost at the end of the day ; the time relative to the time of sundown. After studying this for a while, the farmer would release the chickens into the garden 8 minutes before sundown. The chickens would make a bee line into the protean laden garden, eating up only the grubs, then as sundown came would leave the garden to roost, thus not eating the garden produce. Enjoy!

I do lunchroom duty. I bring a 5 gallon pail for the kids to put their food waste in every day. What the chickens can't eat goes in my compost bin. Other things I get from the school...shredded paper for lining my Eglu (chicken tractor), gallon cans for putting around my tomatoes and peppers, and cardboard for my garden paths and starting more no till beds. Some of the staff think I'm nuts, others are happy that I help reduce, reuse, recycle. The students think it's cool to help feed my chickens. I always keep some new pictures of them on my phone as quite a few of the students ask to see them. I'm only a para and make little money, so these little 'extra benefits' can really add up to me.

@@sparksfamilyhomestead Hi! congratulations on your homestead dream coming true! I’ve never been to East Tenn. I did see some property for sale in Mountain City (not really a city haha) and around the VA border. How would you describe those areas? Soil type? Water availability? Type of people/community? Humidity levels? Economy? I would like to get property somewhere in East Tenn that’s within 30-40mins of a larger midsized town for shopping/hospitals/farmer’s markets/etc. I’m looking for our homestead property that must have some sort of natural springs, creek, etc. must have natural water and be able to drill a decent well. Thank you for any advice about E.Tenn. and congratulations again on your journey moving forward. So exciting!

@MissAngela007 I can only share on where we currently live. For over 2 years my wife and I were looking for land exactly what you have stated. Since living here in North Eastern Tennessee, I have realized, we are close to North Carolina and Virginia. We currently live near Greeneville Tennessee in Greene county. We moved here from North Texas back on 2019. Thus I had no knowledge of this area but knew I wanted to live here because on the 4 seasons we get and the mountain beauty of everywhere. The land here is very fertile. I'm into gardening and everything in our climate zone of 7a seems to thrive. I haven't fertilized any of our fruit trees and grapes. They all love this rich clay soil. Thus, in my opinion, buy land soon before its too late here. Tennessee is becoming very popular and people are moving here from all over the lower 48. Land is still affordable but for how long? We do not know. If you move to east or north eastern Tennessee, you have decent size big cities such as Knoxville, Kingsport and Johnson City. You easily can find what you are looking for within a 30 minute commute from those cities. Bubbling springs, creeks and ponds are abundant on many parcels of land. I wish you much favor and success in your desire to live here. God Bless, Wayne.

I bought 3 female goats and had one bred so I could continue to milk her, and she gave birth to 5 kids! Now we have 8 pet goats and no milk! They are adorable pets and don't give us any trouble but it is not a homesteading project, it's 8 more mouths to feed. We love and enjoy them so at least they bring us joy and that has value. What I did not know is that not all dairy goats are good milk producers. Some are just cute pets. Next time, I'll get a good, proven milker.

I watched a programme in the uk about a project where you can hire a herd of goats to basically eat all the stuff you need clearing off your property .in return the goats leave you plenty of manure to use in your growing of foods . Diatemaceous earth is great for dealing with bugs on your vegetable crops .you need to get food grade DE but it is innexpensive and you get a huge amount . I watch a few homesteading channels and some of them are marvous at using pigs and chickens to clear large areas and to produce compost. Hollar homesyead with ben and meg The Rhodes with justin and rebecca rhodes I love the method justin uses deep bed litter for his pigs and you just keep applying more layers .i think he throws corn into it to encourage the pigs to root through it all and turn it over . Ben does the same with chickens and a big compost heap he tips vegetable matter kitchen waste ,weeds spent plants into a big pile sprinkled with treats for the chickens and badically they scratch and dig in it and turn it into compost for their raised beds .they feed bugs to their chickens too.im not good at explaining maybe you have already seen their material ?

Thank you for all the information. Knowing about milk cows,and what kind to look for. One cow would give more than enough milk for the family. Three to five gallons a day. I'm so glad my daughter bought a home with enough land to be efficient for her family. Growing a garden helps out a lot,is more healthy cause you know what you use on your plants. But the chickens,rabbits, turkeys, milk cow, an my daughter keeps a bull for meat. They use to pick out a steer on an organic farm,then the owner had it processed and wrapped. But it's very expensive. They growing their own. She and her husband work. They have gotten the schedules on point. They aren't stressed an even have vacation time,and time for family and friends. They don't do any of this for income,more as supplementing their income.

I've got chickens and they produce enough for our family and a couple of neighbors, and a small garden. I'd *LIKE* to be able to make *extra money* to at least cover feed and seeds. What are the top 3 things recommended to grow for sale? I've had a pretty good luck growing green beans, cherry tomatoes, summer squash, and several herbs, but everything else is kind of a struggle. My garden is TINY, just four little boxes. I'm planning on remodeling my garden setup to make my boxes more narrow (to make everything much easier to reach!) but increase the number and location of the boxes. I think I can grow up more this way by putting long, narrow boxes along my garden fence (which is about 5 feet tall and chicken wire) so this may help a LOT with production.

It’s interesting what you were saying about the dairy cows designed to over produce. I barter, and do not run dairy cows, but trade my produce with people who do. Lately I’ve been bartering with a commercial dairy farmer who owns cattle bred this way. The milk straight from the vat is watery… badly. It doesn’t have that rich creamy, sweetness that fresh milk always has. It tastes a lot like the stuff you’d buy from the supermarket already, before processing. Very odd
