I repurposed an old 3 point round bale carrier into a garden bedder (or garden hiller) implement. In this video, I give it a quick run through the garden to see how well it’s going to work. I also give a quick update on our pigs, as well as a look at our new baby goat kids. Fortunately we’ve been able to avoid any issues with black vultures, so far, with the help of our miniature donkeys. #smallfarmlife #gardening #piglets #babygoats #minidonkeys #homesteading Check out our website: https://planeview.farm https://youtu.be/Ghx3htMn8XM?si=rNE2TIJpHc1GXmRd https://youtu.be/0nBEMz-MzCY?si=PnXPvtQMXTy07Ok9

In this video, I try to get a jump on spring by plowing our garden with my John Deere 820 tractor. I don't know much about using a plow, but I'm not afraid to try.

Snowed In: Caring for Farm Animals After a Blizzard
A few months ago I was sure that we wouldn't be getting anymore piglets out of our current sow and boar hog. Today, they proved me wrong. I also show you how I load pigs into a trailer before taking a trip to our local processor.

Unexpected Piglets, Loading Hogs, and a Trip to the Processor
My favorite thing about farming is the way of life it brings to my family. I may not be able to farm full time, but the rewards are still amazing. Our small scale farm provides a sense of satisfaction and joy that is difficult to find outside of one’s faith. Not just for me, but for my family. Whatever you do, I hope that you find your “why” in life, even if it’s not life on a farm. I hope you find that something in your life that farming is to me. Thanks for watching.

Prove Me Wrong: Farming Is The Most Rewarding Lifestyle In The World
My Cows have had all their calves in the fall up till now, but a mistake on my part has made things dangerous for the health of my herd. The first calf of 2025 for our small-scale farm was born in the snow and he likely won’t be the last of the winter. I’m going to have to change my cattle breeding plan to make sure next calving season isn’t, potentially, so hazardous. Come along as I discuss my plans while ear tagging and banding this young bull calf.

This Calf Was Born In The Snow And It’s My Fault
Does regenerative farming have a gatekeeping problem. I think we do. Too many regenerative farmer think they set the standard for everyone else. If you ask me, anything that isn’t fully conventional is a step in the right direction. In this video I discuss my biggest concern facing new farmers, as well as veteran farmers, within the direct to consumer, regenerative farming movement.

The Biggest Problem With The Regenerative Farming Movement
My son helps me with chores with a winter ice storm on the way to our small farm. My son is also learning how to drive the Farmall Cub tractor at only 9 years old. If we want our kids to love farming, we have to teach them how to do farm things. Check out our website: https://planeview.farm/ https://youtu.be/a8Kc7C0iCb0?si=irTPyAK9n0RZc5x5
