We want to share our passion for efficient, sustainable homesteading that brings the family together. On our homestead we do chemical-free gardening, grass-fed milk and beef, pastured eggs and broiler chickens, and free range children :) We love to go on adventures as a family, so if we're not workin on the farm, we're probably hiking or out getting ice cream. We're all into DIY, and being inventive and creative. We believe in homesteading that's sustainable, not just sustainable homesteading. In other words, we want to show you that homesteading doesn't have to wear you out to the point that you give it up. We've seen it happen, and almost came to that point ourselves. So go ahead and take a whack at that subscribe button if you'd like to join us on this crazy ride. Get ready to learn and be inspired!

[@crissytuttle2132]

Y'all have become my favorite homesteading family to watch online! I anxiously await each new video! There are a few things that really set you apart from the rest. One is your format. It's direct, to the point and very well done. Second is your genuineness. You aren't trying to impress people or put on some sort of facade. You just seem like real people who are okay with discussing your struggles as well as your victories. Thank you for sharing your life and sweet family with us. I pray the Lord richly blesses you!

[@slewis6440]

I agree with every last word: this family is hands-down my favorite to follow for all of the reasons you mentioned. Thank you for inspiring so many with your real life, @MoreThanFarmers!

[@doubles1545]

I second this.

[@haphazardgardener5586]

Yes!! you guys are so real and awesome! What an encouragement🎉❤

[@melissabouffard6246]

So right!!!

[@gerripoole5565]

My thoughts exactly

[@ginnysummers7018]

People shouldn't complain because you won't feed your family GMO. You're being cautious, not paranoid. Just like putting on a seatbelt!

[@morethanfarmers]

Thanks Ginny 😁

[@giovannia.1692]

Here in italy GMO are banned from being considered healthy food for humans. And they destroy the enormous variety of different garden plants we have around since centuries. We really don’t want them here!

[@jen24gibson1]

I love that you guys are barefoot working on your garden 😂

[@KAMLANDER]

I was just about to say that as well!😂👌🏻

[@Alison2436]

yes! I love being barefoot in the garden as well. I was happy to see I am not the only one ❤

[@morethanfarmers]

We also love it 😎😎😎

[@59kuphoff]

Mondays are always better with More Than Farmers!

[@morethanfarmers]

🥳🥳🥳

[@pearlsandsocks5605]

Y’all are killing me here! I had planned to skip this year gardening, (which usually only consists of a tomato, cucumber and squash or three) and then found and binged your channel about 3 or 4 weeks ago and now have lettuce, spinach, onions, 5 tomatoes, potatoes, bush beans, squash, zucchini, cucumber, carrots, peppers and various herbs and flowers planted. I’m in the suburbs with little room but Michele is making EVERYTHING to simple to not do. I’ll be revisiting the cooking videos soon. I hated seeing the cattle panels go up but I understand. I beg you to not lose the simplicity of what you are doing. Don’t let KZbin change how you are doing things please.

[@morethanfarmers]

Haha that’s great 😊 The cattle panels are actually cheaper than the tomato cages we were using 😏 We just needed a new solution for Michelle’s tomatoes that were getting too big every year.

[@mariabraunschweig2329]

Hi Michelle. We in South Africa eat a lot of Beetroot. Try getting the orange verity as they are amazingly sweet. We cook them in water with skin on and once cooked you rub off the skin with your fingers and cut them up and add Olive oil, balsamic vinegar and salt. Your kids will change their mind about beetroot.

[@Lilly-dk5bg]

Had to screenshot your comment/recipe to attempt to grow and try! I also have a hatred of beets but WANT to like them so bad! 🤣.

[@morethanfarmers]

That sounds delicious 😋

[@Sky-Child]

Roasted beetroot with some oil, salt and balsamic vinegar or honey really changes the earthy flavour and brings out the natural sweetness. Try it ❤

[@Just-Nikki]

Lol, my husband is like Cody, everything squared off and perfect. Even temporary shelves that are holding 4 pounds of weight need to be able to hold 100 pounds 😂

[@slewis6440]

100% my husband as well; at least we know we can trust their work! 😁

[@morethanfarmers]

Better do it right the first time! 👍👍👍

[@davidtromblay9503]

For your corn-next year-try growing in a square to increase pollination. The big growers do it in rows because it's essentially a giant clump. You need to do that but in a homestead-sized clump.

[@debmazalan3386]

One of the simplest seed planting devices, especially for bigger seeds, is a length of PVC pipe. Put one end where you want the seed and, while standing, drop the seed in the other end. Easy peasy.

[@morethanfarmers]

🤯

[@BlushingRoseDiaries]

Fish emulsion and blood meal fertilizer helped my onions get really big this year! It’s basically a natural form of nitrogen.

[@n88986]

I use zip ties on my cattle panels. It makes it easier to move them if I need to and they are cheap

[@jillw892]

Thank you for the video. My daughter was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. I said not today. Prayed. I was led to grow. It is hard work. My daughter is now symptom free the last 10 years with a healthy colon. 🙏

[@morethanfarmers]

Wonderful! Thank you for sharing! ❤️

[@hopeup2792]

You are not paranoid you are spot on.

[@BigggRoss]

Don't forget people, to also water your pollinators along with feeding them. Simple Bird bath, with stones or marbles in it, or water feature will help also. I mean you can dig a small hole and put an unscented garbage bag in it ,or a bowl, to hold the water. I have also seen water fountains made with cheap solar fountain pumps in a 5gallon bucket, called solar humming bird fountains. Water is life. Another idea is covering your corn silks and hand pollinating them to help keep cross pollination down. they called it shoot bagging when i was younger and did it for a company.

[@eb1684]

Are the stones for them to land on?

[@BigggRoss]

@@eb1684 yeah so they don't drown in the deeper water

[@morethanfarmers]

Thanks for the tip!

[@mrs.broccoli4362]

Eating good, non-GMO quality food is the best thing you can do for your health. Especially if you have chronic illnesses. Michelle, that's not parnoid, but responsible. That's why you work hard as "more than farmers". I love this video, I learned so much again. Thank you for that!

[@morethanfarmers]

Thank you! 😊❤️

[@eb1684]

Your dog seems to be very well behaved while you are both working.

[@ioanagherman5952]

God bless you guys, your garden looks amazing. Beets are very good for you,my grandma used to to feed us( we grow up with grandparents from my mom side after my daddy passed away and mom was in nursing school in the city) a lot of pickles beets. Roasted them in oven, then make a dressing with salt,white vinegar,caraway seeds and horseradish grated, oh so delicious.

[@morethanfarmers]

Sounds like some awesome memories ☺️❤️

[@AZJH8374]

You two bring me joy! Michelle, l love your laugh!

[@morethanfarmers]

Awww, thank you 😊

[@tealkerberus748]

If you want to know when your commercial neighbours' corn will be pollinating, ask them? They probably don't want their commercial corn pollinated by what you're growing either, so they should be happy to tell you when theirs will be pollinating and help you plan yours so there won't be any conflict.

[@Just-Nikki]

Bee balm is perennial and bees love it. We put it and hyssop strategically on the property because they will keep coming back without effort on our part and pollinators literally try to run other pollinators off because they love it so much 😂

[@morethanfarmers]

Great to know!

[@EmoNinjaKat89]

Use a couple of the cattle panels and make some trellis arches! Beans, pea, cucumber and winter squash grow up them really well and even tomatoes can be trained to go up them. It looks pretty when it's full of vegetation and it's vary versatile!

[@morethanfarmers]

Thanks for the tip!

[@eb1684]

I think your onions will be OK. Give them some bone meal mixed in about an inch deep.

[@Oracabessa562]

The Power of Food!!! I like that. I’ve recently started eating plant base foods, no more processed foods for me. Love how you love and care for your family. ❤❤❤

[@justincarman4963]

Your videos have helped me so much! My garden is already looking so much better than years past. I always look forward to your uploads.

[@morethanfarmers]

Awesome! So great to hear from you Justin 😁🌱

[@bzzzzz3]

I just noticed that the videos and the editing are better. I don't know what you did, keep going

[@morethanfarmers]

Thanks! 😊

[@superdybonbon]

For the tomato trellis, I use like simple jute or zip ties to tie to the posts so it's easier to remove at the end of the season. The jute is nice because it will just compost and there's no waste with it and it does last the whole season 😊 I love watching you guys garden and wish we could be friends in real life! Also, we could never walk around barefoot in our garden in Texas, so many scorpions! I have to mulch between rows to help keep moisture locked in for our long, hot summer, and there are always lots of little scorpions burrowed in the mulch 😵😵 I'm kind of jealous of your barefoot walking, not gonna lie!

[@morethanfarmers]

Augh, not scorpions! 😭 Stay safe!

[@cynthiaj4863]

I love that you guy garden barefoot. I wish I could do that 😅 but I have wood chips in my walking rows and it doesn't feel good. 😅

[@AZJH8374]

I'm telling every Homesteader that has a garden to plant Jimmy Nardello peppers, but no one so far has done it. I'm so sad 😞 😔

[@beagrine2657]

I also love that you are barefooted cuz u are getting grounded. Maybe i should walk barefooted when watering😊

[@snewk-ub9uh]

Use some of your composted chicken manure for healthy, natural nitrogen! Just a tip that was a game changer for me…an old gardener let me in on the secret! Love what you two are doing! Cheers!

[@ajrichardson3871]

Pat the beets down, ✔️ Maybe thats why mine never show up till a month later 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thanks Michelle!!

[@morethanfarmers]

😂👍🌱

[@sherry2836]

Oooh, a hard rain after newly planted seeds and seedlings can be painful. Hope yours aren't too messed up. Try creamed asparagus on toast for a delicious part of a meal!

[@Alison2436]

I get really big onions using Texas Grano (which might not be appropriate for your area) but EVERY year I get softball sized onions 😁

[@Shanngella]

I don't even have a root cellar, and patterson onions store great in my living room in a straw basket!

[@janetkoball44]

Still love your videos with all of us. I imagine it is great to be young! It's been so long, it's hard to remember. Di all of your children work some in the garden and do they like it?? Thanks from Central Oklahoma

[@rhondabliss4620]

I’m loving watching your videos. I grew up in the southwest part of Indiana and your gardening reminds me so much of what I remember my grandparents doing. Also, I must comment on your gardening barefoot. I grew up without shoes once the weather was warm, just kidding we did have shoes but I preferred to be barefoot as much as possible. It reminds me of walking through the garden with my toes feeling the dirt between them. Memories that just won’t be forgotten!

[@sacredmommyhood]

Cattle panel is definitely the way to go for tomatoes. We're on year three of using it and it holds the indeterminate plants beautifully!

[@kimmbrown]

Love my cattle panels. We have been using trellis with cattle panels for so many different plants. Keeps the plants up off the ground and easy to see the fruits. We are in the lower SW of Michigan and have similar growing patterns to you all. The rain, cold, and tornado weather this year.....whew.

[@RemJuly]

12:08 forward, guess your son was the one holding the camera in here? That was a good steady shot. Good job to your big boy 👏

[@gardeningsimplified]

You have an advantage living in the north for growing onion varieties that have a long storage life. In the south my onions are lucky to store four months. You can shoot them with a bunch of nitrogen by using fish emulsion. It also helps using fish emulsion on your seedlings in cell trays. I find that i don't have to trim the tops, and plant them out once they get about toothpick size or bigger. They'll out perform purchased plants. A thing to note is that when you plant them in multi sown cell trays they need to be planting out once they get well established roots, otherwise they will slow the growth. I've made several videos on growing onions from seeds. When I first started growing my own seedlings, I thought they needed to be as big as the ones you buy, but that's not the case.

[@morethanfarmers]

Thanks for sharing!

[@adamwulf5369]

I grow onion by seed only anymore. They grow well although they don’t look like it when planted. Some blood meal and fish provide some good organic nitrogen, with you on not wanting to use synthetic nitrogen/fertilizers and use down to earth organic for my veggies.

[@shaneswing2016]

Garden's coming together nicely. I grow corn in raised beds. I dig a little furrow about 4 inches deep then put the seeds in the furrow but push then down in the soil another inch. Once they grow about 8 inches, I fill in the furrows for some added anchoring. And since I have a raised bed, I can ha e supports (either tposts or wooden posts on each corner then tie strings around the outside at 2 feet high and 4 feet high. This stops the wind from blowing them over. And to ensure pollination, I tap the stalks with a bamboo stick each day when the pollin is ready. Try it. It's fun. You can get a good 35 stalks in one 8x4 raised bed.

[@morethanfarmers]

Sounds like you've got your system down! 🌱🌱🌱

[@learningatyoutubeU]

Hello, your garden looks great. I put cattle panels up for all my tomatoes, I also zip tie cheap tomato cages to my cattle panels to help support my determinant tomatoes. Using both seems to be working to keep them upright. good luck

[@GeorgeMoore-eh1kr]

Hi lolliie🌹🌹 How are you doing?

[@morethanfarmers]

Awesome!

[@mperez2730]

This is my all time favorite Homestead channel. You guys are awesome and so inspiring. Keep up the good work!

[@morethanfarmers]

Wow, thank you!

[@ginahartman4186]

You are not paranoid. We eat about 90% organic and try our best to eat No GMOS. As someone who has an autoimmune disease and a stomach condition, it really makes a difference. Good on you mama for watching what your kiddos eat 😊

[@pamelabaugh9432]

My sister and I are in our sixties and love your channel. We love watching your family's day to day life. Enjoy the cooking segments. We always learn something. Keep up the good work and have a great growing season.

[@morethanfarmers]

Thank you! Will do!

[@Lexus-hh7qy]

You guys are my favourite homesteaders. I seriously love Shelly she’s just the cutest person her soul is giving off such good energy. I’ve literally watched every video about 2 times. I need more content. Puhleaseeee. 💗💗💗💗

Glad you think so!

[@ChanhBushcraft88]

Hello my friend I really enjoy watching your videos and seeing the Panorama of your Farm with the animals I really like it I wish I had a farm like yours Good day to you and your family new good

[@giovannia.1692]

Here in Italy we plant onion seeds at the end of August. Since I’m in the south I plant them out in November. In the northern part where frost is a thing they keep them in boxes ‘till the end of February, but at a certain point they separate them into bigger pots so they can have more space to grow for the winter. May it helps 😉

[@virsapiensfortisest922]

Yay a new video!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@TheYagers-ve2mb]

Stumbled upon your page today for the first time. My wife and I just had a baby last year, and we have 2 dogs. I recently bought a Log cabin on 10 acres and have been modifying with homestead in mind. We only have Chickens so far but I am in research mode, mostly on volume of planting. I am curious if you have a list or video really going over the volume of what you planted and what you get from it. Id like to garden enough to also supplement for our dogs, and chickens. So far I dig your operation!

[@meljefferey2812]

So Jealous haha too cold up here in the evening in Toronto Canada , to plant anything. Usually it's safe after the long weekend. But way to go with all your work! My seedlings are ready to go so I'm just biting at the bit.

[@jimboris92]

Wow that's awesome. Have a wonderful evening with good health 🙏

[@morethanfarmers]

Good luck!

[@lylacrawford1827]

I love beets too Michelle. Anyway you fix them especially pickled. Bless your sweet family.

Awesome video. I don't normally comment, but I rlly should say thx for doing these, guys. I'm homesteading in Mississippi over here.

[@BroScro]

& thx for the tipoff on staying away from a covercrop mix with grass seed in it lol. good stuff

[@morethanfarmers]

Thanks for watching!

We will! 😁❤️

[@catracampolieto8989]

❤❤❤ I always enjoy your videos. Wishing you an abundant harvest this year.

[@morethanfarmers]

Same to you!

[@sugarshell1973]

Try starting the onions in a taller pot...it helps with many in there for some time and gives all their roots more room. i used the same type of container as you last year and had same prob. so this year i put them in a 6 in deep pot, much better than last year and i got chubby bulbs to plant out!

[@RemJuly]

I am so happy for your channel, your subscription has grown so much, yay🎉. Having a lot of space to grow food and have your own cow for milk and chicken for meat and egg is a dream of mine. The life you have right now is my dream to have since I live in the city and all I can do is just plant on pots, just a tiny urban gardening for now.

[@morethanfarmers]

Thank you, and best of luck to you right where you're at 😊

[@nanfaircloth]

I'm so glad I found you guys. Awesome information 😊

[@morethanfarmers]

So glad to have you!

[@RemJuly]

I hope you can show us also videos of your plants growing, like before, during and after. I want to see the carrots when you start to remove the boards and the process of taking good care of your plants after they sprout like what organic fertilizer do you use on the earlier stage of growth and for fruiting plants what do you also use inpreparation for their flowering to fruiting phase because my problem with my plants, they grow nicely but when they starts to flower insects destroy my plants and barely grow any veggies/fruits.

[@mackmckenzie8479]

I’ve always been a farm boy in Louisiana,, and my mother is creole Indian,, and she has always been organic and our food has always been so much better than the food out of the store .. so stick to your beliefs no matter what people say.. there is always going to be negative.. love what you’re doing!!

[@DanielleSW]

Thanks so much for the onion growing tips!

[@charlakey8809]

Yes ma'am. Covid really altered my taste buds!!!! I just found you guys and I love your farm and family, I'll be 70 in June and wish I was able to homestead! Love you slland I could use some carrots 😃😃

[@tamararobinson2069]

Michelle You quoted what I say all the time - When you’ve been chronic sick and heal from eating good food - you become serious about what you eat and feed your babies. I have the hardest time growing carrots even with the boards - it looked like you planted about 2” deep is that right? You’ll Love the cattle panels!!! I use the “tomato” cages for my peppers works great👍🏼 Thanks for the video!!🤗 Oh and you can pass some of that rain our way please😁

[@morethanfarmers]

Hope you get some soon!

😋😋😋

[@joeyhardin1288]

Thank you! My wife is hypoglycemic so if we eat corn, it comes from the store, frozen, Non-GMO and store bought Non-GMO potatoes. The farmer behind us raises 168 acres of corn and I do not trust it. This year, it is soy beans so I am growing pop corn. Keep the vids coming!

[@annakoval229]

Beets cooked and shredded with some mayo and garlic, salt and pepper is a very yummy salad :))

[@galeharris6696]

I absolutely agree about food being healing. Michelle, I don't want to eat foods that are full of gmo's and added chemicals either. If people who question your motives would look around at the relationship between the amount of sickness and the changes in how food is grown and transported in the past couple of generations, they might not see your caution as paranoid, but prudent. It's obvious that something is highly broken in our food system, and some of the items in the food stores can't even nourish us. Keep giving us good info via your great videos, and grow well!🌻

[@morethanfarmers]

Thanks Gale! 😁
