Homestead Fashioned
Добавлен 30 авг 2022
We went from owning our own fashion & accessories line in downtown Seattle, with a 6000 sq.ft retail store, design shop & speakeasy... to leaving it all & buying 10 acres of land & a barn in northern Idaho with our parents, who sold their home of 40 years. All with the vision of a new way of life centered around reconnecting our lives to the source & slowing down.
This is a start of a journey. A journey of rewilding our lives. Rewild is a verb defined as: To restore to its natural uncultivated state. Which seems less like a switch you can just flip and more like a journey to embark on, an evolution that involves unpacking a lot of stuff that this fast paced, success driven world has packed into us. Replacing some of it, but also leaving a lot more space for living, loving, and learning together.
Come along with us as we renovate a barndominium from the ground up, develop our land, raise animals, garden, hunt, gather, cook, homeschool, and more!

Squaw Fries! Fried Pikeminnow Recipe. How to Cook Pikeminnow. Easy Finger Fried Local Fish Recipe
In this How To Episode, we fry up some Pikeminnow! Recently, while fishing for Cutthroat near our North Idaho homestead, we started hooking into small Pikeminnow, also known locally as Squaw Fish. Pikeminnow are a predatory fish that decimate the local cutthroat population. Most fisherman will just throw them up on the bank, but i had a better idea: why not come up with a yummy way to eat them! I like to call them "Squaw Fries." They were in an instant HIT! This recipe will also work with any small fish you can pick up at local grocery store or fish market.
Idaho has no regulations on Pikeminnow, and states like Oregon and Washington actually have bounties on Pikeminnow that will pay angle...

Basically a Handmaid state...Ran by a bunch of nuts!
Fire wood makes you warm twice , once when you cut it and once when you burn it . Where not far from you guys, and go through 5-6 chords a winter . We only burn red fir and larch . To old to use a splitting mall anymore, we use a splitter. There's lots to learn about heating with wood . Please be careful with the chain saw. They can hurt you really bad , only takes a second . BTW if your going to burn much pine be sure and burn it hot and, or clean ur chimney often .
Not sure where you are in idaho . Were about 60 miles southeast of Courdealene, and they have been really bad this year . Never heard of trying for the queens early in the seaeson . Ill try that next spring . Cant wait for them to die off after the freeze .
@@ada-yw1bb we aren’t far from you! They have been super bad this year. We have friend and neighbors that can’t even go outside right now… have been stung so many times. We have almost none. Each year it gets better and better if you follow those steps! Right now, get those fipronil raw meat balls out right now! All over! That will help big time. Stay consistent
If ur on a well, it's not really a good idea to let the faucets drip . Hard on the well pump . Insulate/ heat areas with exposed lines, use heat tape if you have too. Make sure your lines are buried deep enough and dont run water lines on exterior walls . North idaho is a lot different than western Washington in the winter .
You guys are so blessed to have Mom and Dad's expertise ! Hope you will always be there for them as well ! That's a lot of love there !!!❤
Yessss! Thank you Shelli!
Welcome to Idaho, cool video. Your homestead is coming along nicely.
Thank you!!
Loved the video. I’m watching from Mackay ID so I loved the 7C sweatshirt one of the kids was wearing on your fishing trip. So awesome!
Ah!! That’s so awesome! Thank you for watching!!
Some people think its funny but its snot. LOL
Haha… nice! I see what you did there 😉
LOVE LOVE LOVED the surprise at the end. Your place is looking great.
Yessss!!! Thank you!! 😝
Black FOR SURE
BTW awesome channel. Best wishes to your amazing family 💞
Thank you so much!!
For your drainage problems rent heavy machinery or hire it to dig the soil so the water drains away from your livestock. Use a French drain. First dig a trench . Then put the French drain pipe in to carry your water away. The French drain pipe has small holes in it and is placed in the ground to drain the water away. Backfill the trench. We used a French drain to protect a leaky basement. It fixed our problem. Watch Homestead Rescue videos with the Ramsey family on ideas on how to deal with your livestock mud issues. They're awesome at fixing livestock mud/drainage problems.
Trapping is cruel...just because it's legal in your state dosent make it right....great stuff to be teaching your children...I'm extremely disappointed...I thought u had a higher iq
I found that if I wanted big apples I needed to give them lots of water throughout the hot months as well.
YES!!! Love that!!
Blessings from Baja down here whe use a pantyhose whe put some meat scraps in it close the panty hose tying it whit some rope and throw it in the streem wait a while and recover it and there crowfish get there feet tangled in the pantyhose
That’s pretty cool! I’m gonna havta try that! Haha
I know this ain't a apple tree but I have a plum tree Way put it out about 4 years ago I've never got any plums do you need two or more to have plums or what's my problem do you have any idea
It could a number of things. If your getting flowers but no plums it could be the variety, like you mentioned.. maybe it’s not self fertile and needs a friend? If you’re not getting any blooms, try some of the things in this video for sure! 😄
You folks are an inspiration because of all the good things you are doing. The biggest thing you can do for your girls is continue to home school because you are the biggest influence in their futures. Crystal (sp?) you are a natural born teacher and are a wonderful guide for the other families and all of the children. Crystal, be blessed and continue to use your God given talents and skills. (Really enjoy the 'softer' music.) Blessings to all of you fine folks.
Thank you Bill!! Couldn’t agree more!
WOW!!! You folks have water! That is fantastic that you have a high flowing well so you will have plenty of house water and lots of water for your garden and plants. Big blessings to you!!!
Bill! Loving all of the comments! Glad your enjoying the episodes! -Justin
Hey can you add all different kinds of flavor other than just salt to that
Most definitely! Herbs from the garden, and or roasted garlic is amazing! But you can totally get creative with your farmers cheese!
Processing and eating your own animals makes for better tasting meals. Blessings to you all.
Making mud pies on your knees is heart-warming because Justin did not freak out when he saw her playing in the mud. Blessings to all of you.
The upstairs bathroom turned out really nice. The tub is big enough to put the girls in for their baths. Justin, I like the cattle panel installiation in the loft railing system. It is so nice to see the girls involved in sanding and painting the cabinet doors. It gives them some 'ownership' in the various projects. "Valuing each other" is so precious and valuable. Blessings to all of you.
Having the water line trench dug to four feet is good insurance against frozen pipes in the winter. The trout look delicious and it is nice seeing many hands preparing supper. More great memories. I love to hear the positive encouragements. Blessings to all of you.
Idaho offers four distinct seasons with harsh winters, warm summers mixed with beautiful fall and spring weather. You are making wonderful memories for all to enjoy. Blessings to all of you folks.
Hey guys. Im going to comment this one time and probably not again because i have opinions. Some people do not agree with them. Whatever, I am from north Idaho. Sandpoint area, colburn culver, Rapid lightning area. Been there done that. 9 to 11 cords of wood every year. Had a huge house with 3 stoves. If your willing to let these people come into your life, be damn sure they have your back. If SHTF , they now know what you got. Can you trust them? Something to think about. Otherwise Im subscribed and watching. Good luck.
LOVE this comment!! Lots of wisdom here, especially what’s in between the lines.
Great advice!
Thank u! Glad it was helpful!
What an awesome video!
This is Ron, btw... As in Ron and Deb. :-)
That’s so awesome! Thank you! 😄
Goats!
Yes! 😄🐐

Cabin Fever Is Part Of Life God Bless All Good Humans
Yes! Thanks Curtis!
Guy’s you have a wonderful family and a great show! Keep doing you… and thanks for the journey!!
Thank you Ray!!
First time watching your channel....nice homestead! I live in the south west section of Idaho (down by Boise).
Thank you!..and thanks for watching and the comment! 😄
We are a cc family too!! I love the affirmations that y’all recite as a family. Do you have a link for a pdf for that? Just subscribed. I also have a channel and would love to be friends and connect. Looking forward to following along. We are considering buying land too but it’s so tricky especially land that is off the grid so that we can have our trailer on it.
Hey! Thank you so much! Shoot us an email ( homesteadfashioned@gmail.com ) and we can send it to you. We know so many families who started out buying land and living in a trailer for a while while they develop it …all with amazing stories! It’s such an amazing investment in so many ways.
It's wonderful to watch you and your family live my dream. Keep keeping on.
Awe, that’s awesome! Thank you!
We usually hang our deer in a cool place for 14 days. It gives it a great flavor.
Your feet must taste great! 😉 haha (I’m assuming you meant meat… but yes! We hang ours for at least a week or so. In this video Travis was only here for a few days, so he was only able to hang it for a few days… but it was still amazing 😄)
Lol it's edited now.
@@Deerhavenoffgridhomestead well now my comment won’t make sense! Haha
Man! Your vision for your property...business plan is spot on. This episode was just amazing! I'm a self proclaimed semi-professional-amateur RUclips watcher, and you seriously need to post more episodes and on a consistent basis. You do such great work!
Jason! Thank you for the love and the semi-professional-amateur feedback! 😄 I’m trying… but there’s also lots of work to be done around here 😉 …more episodes is definitely the number one comment I get from folks, so I suppose that’s a good thing! I’m working on it.
You folks do an amazing job with your videos, My girlfriend and I have been watching you since the start. Good job on doe...and turkey. Stay Blessed! PS gland in legs...tarsal gland needs to come out
That’s awesome! I’m glad you’re enjoying them! So I’ve read that messing with cutting off the tarsal glad can spread bacteria and scent all over yourself and the meat…and have never had any ‘off’ taste. But I’ll definitely have to look into that more!! Thanks for the tip! 😄
Have harvested a 100 deer, never messed with a gland.
❤ your journey.
Thank you! ❤️
Missed y'all! Glad to see the latest!
Thank you Karla!
Was watching your video on building garden beds. I made 26 beds with untreated pine, and they lasted nearly ten years, and even then, only the bottoms needed replacing. Good call, and great multi family homestead. New subscriber,.
That’s awesome to hear! 😄 …and thanks for watching and subscribing!
Knee pads?
😂👍
I love homesteading.
So do we! 😄
Double wall pipe may last longer, but you lose most of the radiant heat available until you need to use insulated (or double-wall) to exit the home safely. With a season under your belts, were you able to keep the home warm enough, especially with the extreme cold this past few weeks?
Hey! Yes the double wall has been great, and the wood stove has been our main source of heat. During those negative temp days we had to really stay on top of the wood, but still stayed in the mid to upper 60’s in the house. Once we finish insulating the ceilings, that will be the biggest game changer with warmth.
Very cool! I would like to know if Steve, and Darcy have a channel?.. I bet Darcy goes nuts. 😁😂🤣
Ha! They don’t, but I’m sure they’ll be making more cameo’s on here 😄
Great episode. I especially loved the Robert Frost reference. Keep up the great work!
Thank you!!
It would be far easier to hall and store logs then cut them at your wood shed. Get a good pile of logs so that you will always have a supply of wood. It is also a good way to dry green fresh cut trees. A little advice from an old farm boy.
Love it! Thank you for the tip!
My dad and uncles would castrate pigs. Then we would freeze them until we had enough for a mountain oyster feed. I remember having my city cousins come out, then I would how they liked them. Then some of them lost their cookies 🤣. They are delicious, but very rich and you don't hear about mountain oyster feeds much anymore. I think it is awesome what your family is doing.
Ha! So funny. We didn’t eat them (they were really small) ….but maybe we just need to start saving them up! Haha
It's difficult listening with the music so loud. Could you lower it some during the talking? I'm enjoying your journey
Thanks for the feedback, and for watching!
