Kevin is so blessed to have not one but two stunningly beautiful women that don't just look good but cook, clean, drive truck, and grow an amazing garden.

[@jamesbergfeld5923]

The only thing brighter than the sun is you. Thank you for sharing your farm life.

[@glenn6448]

Good grief. Now you so catering on the side?? I don't think you people need any chairs in your house. You never stopped to sit down 😂😂. You are blessed with the most amazing and skillful family I have ever seen. I honestly don't see how you have time for everything that you guys do.

[@acresofclayhomestead]

🤣😆

[@davereynolds6145]

Nowadays I think every farm needs a tech guy! I don't no about anyone else but I'm excited about the new shop, it's long overdue!

[@doughaynes1048]

Thanks for sharing and showing us your amazing garden and a short tour of your farm . It’s great to see your family working as a team backing each other up . . Hopefully the barn is completed soon. . Have a blessed day . 👀 forward to seeing more of your adventures next video . Blessings 🙏🏻✝️😀🤗❤️

Your flowers are beautiful

so is she

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thank you! 😃

[@larrycopenhaver]

@@acresofclayhomestead your welcome

[@bay9876]

A noticable smile and grin while talking about those flowers. The colours are spectacular and I bet the odor is much nicer than the milking barn waste. Some farmers build a care taker suite in the barn for the helping hands. If heated it would be better than a house tailer.The under coating might make the truck to last a million miles. Rust is the destroyer.

[@Leon-qc7fe]

Thanks for the skunk update. I was worried about that. It kept me up all night for a few nights worrying. I stayed home from work too. Had trouble eating. I will be OK now.🤨🙃... Thanks for another great video.

That is a nice big shop and this family certainly deserves this. The reason is that they do all their own repairs.

Ronda you are more than a teacher you are a valuable cog in the farm and I do learn something everytime I watch your videos but I am also fascinated by your far and garden and you working in your kitchen God Bless Hokusai and your entire family As always your good friend from Massachusetts Kenny D 😊❤

Sanders and corn the cornstar seems to be like minded

A beautiful flower garden Rhonda ! I think I could even smell some flowers. Lol !! The men are definitely coming along great on the shop . It will be a wonderful addition to the farm !! As always thank you for sharing your journey !! I pray God's Blessings on each of you !!!! Eddy

You guys are fantasticly handy when it comes to build your own buildings, I always gets impressed by it, this is no exception 🙂

[@57fitter]

Thanks for the tree and skunk update, I feel like you did that just for me.Thanks! So did you come down to Shipshe? Can you say where you got the cover crop seed? I use wheat and rye, but that clover looks like a good soil builder. Take care, everyone.

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Yes, went to Shipshewana.😀 We got our seed from Best Forage.

[@MicahHughes-y9t]

Always good to see Sidney- real sharp guy and willing to talk to Mom with the camera!

[@vickiulrich6694]

Oh Rhonda…I was so excited thinking you were gonna have a haul from the Amish stores but disappointment quickly set in. I love the Amish stores as well as the Amish produce stands. For me it’s a real homemakers experience that I never tire of. Most of my canning and freezing produce comes from the Amish meaning what I don’t have room to grow myself. I love interacting with the young children as they are working their stands alongside Mama or sometimes on their own. Amish stores are yet another whole different experience and I think folks are missing out if they never visit one or the other or both!!! I don’t know where you find the time for your outside the farm side hustles but I commend you just the same. Polish food is some of the best eating and I wish you great success with this years festival. I think Sanders channel will grow quicker now as I know Jack has already subscribed Hunny loves watching as your kids grow into their own and Sanders has been growing too fast!!! Looking forward to the next visit as you never disappoint! God bless!!!:):):)

[@acresofclayhomestead]

I wanted to show the Amish stores and all that we purchased, but by the time I remembered to get the camera out... I already had everything put in the cupboards. 🥴🤦‍♀️

[@7viewerlogic670]

Good idea for Sanders to have a channel. People need to keep old trucks going. New ones are too expensive and unreliable. I tried to search his channel and couldn't find it but then I saw it at the bottom of your video description.

[@jamesmainers7814]

Blessed Family!!!! Thank you for all the videos you do,!!!

[@charlietanner6211]

be sure to put a bumper hitch so i can pull it home for me on that shed

[@davidwittmer8806]

Rhonda you and your daughter are so beautiful . I think you should sell boutiques of your flowers to add to your income. The shop is coming along nicely. 💕

[@Dan-qy1rg]

Your zinnias look good, my wife has those and some marigolds too. I like what Kevin is doing on the new shop, going to be nice. Good luck with the rest of the build, I hope you all have a good afternoon. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Ronda for a great, very informative video. Great progress being made on the new shop,will be nice to see the completed building in use.I declare, Kevin is so easy going,and, looks like he's very supportive of his children and their projects. I love that Kevin allows things such as Sanders cleaning out the paint booth for his truck project. Absolutely awesome to see Ms.Kenzie appear in a video again, well done as always Don't let the polish gathering work you to pieces Ronda.

That pasta salad is one of my favorites. Just finished off a bowl of it a few days ago. I put pepperoni in mine too.

I love the idea of growing your own flowers to make bouquets ❤❤ I love zinnias they are bright and cheerful but I never pick me any but I will after watching you! Those all kinds of benefits of fresh flowers in your garden home. I can’t believe you are catering too.. .. your energy should be bottled and sold … i should would buy a bottle..😂

[@ablelock]

Thanks for the update around the farm. I always enjoy your videos and have truly begin to enjoy them even more. I see you work really hard on trying to get them up to being around 30 minutes and that’s really great. Enjoy seeing all your family and all the things that are happening keep up the good work on the videos Might make one suggestion you might want to put sanders channel the way it’s found on KZbin in a card in your area on yours where you do the show notes so that if people want to subscribe to him, they know where to find it and then let them know that you will put it there each time just an idea

[@toddkratzer7953]

You need to remove all the loose bark from the tree that was hit by lightning. I had the same thing happen to my tree and my arborist told me to do that so bugs and moisture don't cause rot.

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thanks for the advice!!

[@bobcatsmith246]

Hello, I just subscribed to Sanders channel.

As a journeyman electrician of 27 years you are gonna want to put up 2 or 3 ceiling fans up or heating that structure will be super tough

Yes, thanks! We plan to put up 3 or 4 fans. :)

Your flowers are beautiful! You should try drying them as they are very expensive to purchase in a craft store and your flowers are way more prettier.

[@rdyardie]

Our daughter did home schooling in Lawton, OK with her three children. It is a lot of work for both mother and children. I flew to Lawton for some special projects because I am a retired Biology / Chemistry teacher from Calgary, Alberta. By the way, I taught Horticulture in Calgary. It was a great class to teach.

I wish my boys wanted to take Horticulture...

Nice to see the lightning struck tree is surviving. My closest Amish store is a 2 hour drive to the west and I make a trip at least once a year to stock up. Have you thought of adding some wisteria or trumpet vine to the pergola over the patio? Blessings to the family, have a safe week.

[@acresofclayhomestead]

There's concrete all around the pergola. :(

[@briankelso1227]

Don't forget alot of lights.

[@berhorst59]

Ronda, I have a huge maple tree about 10 feet from my jhouse, that has been struck by lightning, about 7 years ago, and it still leaves out every year. In fact, it is the best looking tree in my yard. Hoping it doesn't decide to fall, due to its closeness to the house, and our water line and sewer line are very close to it.

[@acresofclayhomestead]

There's still hope that our tree will live! 😃

Watch out with the tree; it can be dead inside and fall down without any warning. Drill a hole in the tree on multiple heights: see if it's still alive. Plug the wholes to help to heal.
