I have been to the farm and have watched hours and hours of video from Polyface, but I can't get enough of Joel so thanks for posting!

[@dwighthires3163]

Thank you, thank you THANK YOU! I actually have more interest in a winter tour than a summer one.. I long to see the compost making operation. I have seen Joel describe it but you did the best anyone has done of showing the detail. Thank you for accomplishing this.

Was always curious what he did over the window hope this video answers some questions

[@amandadetwiller9149]

I would have totally cheese out!!

[@CALUBNZvlogTV]

Huge of chickens😊

[@slivace]

How much corn does he put in the deep beeding and how much time needs to stay before introducing the pigs in the deep beeding....

[@dannyadkins9581]

I'm guessing at 6:57, his heat must be the wood powered incinerator?

[@CALUBNZvlogTV]

❤❤nice views

[@jenniferbunker2757]

In the spring do you just shovel it all out of the hoop house ?

[@growinggoodwins895]

They scoop out the houses with a tractor and spread it on the fields using a manure spreader.

[@Laura-kg2jv]

Where did the name come from?

[@brianwood586]

Doesn’t he put the manure on his fields for fertilizer for crops

[@jenniferbunker2757]

Did it smell bad in the hoop houses ?

[@growinggoodwins895]

No, it did not smell due to the carbonaceous diaper!

[@brianwood586]

Where all the manure go

[@runningcreekfarms3530]

Did you have permission to be there? Just curious??

[@growinggoodwins895]

Polyface has a 24/7 open door policy. Visitors are welcome to explore the grounds. Joel has written about this in many of his books. We’ve been to the farm many times, and everyone there really welcomes and encourages you to explore and enjoy their beautiful farm. Also, here’s a clip from their website: “TRANSPARENCY: Anyone is welcome to visit the farm anytime. No trade secrets, no locked doors, every corner is camera-accessible.”

I've noticed on dating sites that a bunch of women feel the notion to state that they're, "Very Independent". Like it's some type of virtue. I'm not even sure I know what being independent means when women say this? They can call the male plumber when the toilet doesn't flush? They can pay their own rent? I believe I need an example of a woman who's not independent to compare. It's not like it's a big surprise if a couple are sharing expenses they will both benefit. I guess these women are saying they're not parasites? Whatever they mean by it, I don't find it appealing.
