I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas in my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much MORE!
At Lumnah Acres we hope our experiences can help guide you to find YOUR BETTER WAY! Please join us in sharing our journey with you, let us be a guide to Modern Homesteading, Self-Sufficiency, and FREEDOM for you!

Looks like Hope and her sister Fern at Weed Em and Reap will be becoming Moms on the same times. Both are saying boys! LOL🤣😂😬😈😋
It seems like just yesterday when little Hope put on her hoodie and made the long flight from AZ....and now she’s going on her first date! OMG!
Her going from desert heat to temperate cold is really interesting for me. The way she has gotten 'chunky' compared to her desert siblings & mom shows how versatile goats are as livestock. The husbandry of arms family homestead making its methods to the acres is going to be interesting. Meat goats vs dairy goats or rather miniature dairy goats. Wonder how well spanish bloodlines would do as milkers? How much better are the feed costs vs a 'full' sized
dairy breed (alpine or nubian) I wonder. I think its neat to see how popular goats are on the tube & homestead. Still looking like the pigs are winning the meat animal for a homesteaders. Given a reliable source of annual feeders. 👍
They grow up so fast 😉😛😁
@Will W My thought was her size/weight gain was a coping mechanism for dealing with the colder temps of her current home.
Thanks for the info.
Ikr it’s so cool
It's a race between Fern & Hope! 😂
Yup
i dont mean to be offtopic but does someone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly lost my account password. I would love any help you can give me
@Lennox Kayson Instablaster :)
As a little kid we had a rooster that always chased me. One day i saw my grandfather butchering him behind the corn crib. I cried and cried for the rooster😭. Ive had a few like that during my time. I just kick them back and dont let it bother me. For some reason i respect the protector rooster. He would attack a predator also. Just my 2 cents again🤗
It depends on how small you were when you were attacked. Most parents (grandparents) err on the side of caution and won't give an overly aggressive rooster a second chance at you. A little child could be mauled by a rooster.
@@Bamboo4U2 Absolutely. A toddler or small child could easily get pecked or clawed to the face, leaving permanent scars, or even loss of eye(s). A competent (grand)parent would err on the side of caution, before a child has lifelong scars and trauma.
@@Bamboo4U2 im sure there are some but in my loooooong lifetime i have never heard of a serious injury from a rooster. Im sure if i googled it i could find some but i just dont think they are that dangerous. Annoying maybe.
@@ubetchya78 Could not agree more. An aggressive rooster that flies in the face of a 5 or even. A 12 year old can be both traumatizing AND dangerous.
Exactly a semi aggressive rooster is good for predators, my rooster the other day fought coyotes letting the chickens get away saving them. he ended up giving his life for them in the process. (That’s why we kept a 2nd rooster)
It's awesome to see the pigs actually running with each other ,and the rooster on his highest perch each morning. Also great seeing your goats from arrival to becoming mothers and giving birth . GO HOPE. BLESS YOU ALL 😇 Cheers from NYC🗽😷
Aww, Little Man and Hope get to see each other again. If only...
Hope and Little Man were always side by side as a kid……
You explain things very well I learned so much about what it takes to maintain a homestead like yours.
Great looking salad! Al have you thought about hanging some box fans from the ceiling of the greenhouse for air circulation. That's what we had in our greenhouses. Just a suggestion.
I have a reccomendation for Makinf Roosters friendlier. Having Multiple roosters Helps the rooster be friendlier. And also Handling them A LOT as chicks helps. I have 2 Breeding roosters, One store bought and one Hatched and They're absolute sweethearts. My hatched one is the store bought's son, The store bought was handled a lot by me and he's a gentle giant.
From a burnt foundation to this beautiful farm!
Omgoodeness Hopes first date ... Such a proud moment...😁. I watched her come into the world. Oh I so can't wait 😍. When you guys received her I was so stoked because I was already watching ur channel for a while. Tysm for sharing this milestone. I can't wait to see how she does as a momma and milk wise too. Are u going to grade her milk for stars. I would love to see her genetics. 💖🤩💖
It was the same here a few days ago. It got to the upper 80's all of a sudden once the clouds moved away, and my greenhouse went to about 110° and fried a bunch of newly transplanted plants. I was out planting and didn't even think about it because it was nice out with the clouds. Oh well, live and learn 😎
What has happened to the bees? Did they ever arrive? Perhaps I missed a vlog?
Same
I was wondering about that too.
Not yet they are waiting for the bees
When are the honey bees coming? Looks like the fruit trees are blooming now.
If hope is anything like her mom, she's going to have so much milk!
Kids are just growing up too fast these days! She was just a baby like - yesterday!
I’m jealous of the Dragon vent on y’all’s instapot!
Amazon has them.✌
Johnnie Carter - If you click on their *Amazon Affiliate* link (In description under video) & click on *Influencer - Lumnah Acres* you will find it.
I saw your dragon on your instant pot. So I ordered and got the dolphin and love it. I cooked a small chicken and then made up the broth for future uses. Its just me so I buy just a small fresh chicken. But love it, so good.
Oh my goodness hope is going on her first date it wont be long before she will be a mom it seems like yesterday she was born
Hope grow up so fast was like yesterday she flew over from Arizona in the tiny sweater.
The pigs have claimed their new pasture. I'm sure they are enjoying the larger area to really run in. I remember when you would open the regular pen gate and they would run out to clean up the tree area. Hopefully Rusty will settle down now that he can get out of confinement and strut his stuff. Thank you and your ladies for starting my day with joy. God Bless
Good morning I am happy for Hope. Her sister that was born the same time she was is visiting the breeding buck. I know she will have beautiful babies and she comes from good milking lines. A great weekend to all.
A busy day.
Those birds were really enjoying the clover.
Praying like mad it works with Hope and Zeke. I know you quietly say Hope is your favourite, and I have to agree.
The pigs soon got set in the area they're now in.
Fresh food. Nothing better.
Most people on here won't understand what you ment by a 7th gen star Miller or first gen and what it takes to make your star.
That would make a good education class for most these folks.
I would suggest this for the green house. Put one sensor 8’ up, 1 sensor on a stick and the 3rd outside of the greenhouse. Should give you accurate information

Yeah my black copper maran rooster is the same way. We can’t be in the same area together because he will attack. He’s gotten me once and my daughter too. We have a whiting true blue rooster too and he’s will come after us as well. I’ve told them they will be replaced soon. A mean rooster is not a good rooster. Can’t wait to see Hope’s babies. They should be beautiful :). Thanks for sharing. Take care, see ya :)
Great video love all the goats! Good luck Hope! God bless you guys! Have a wonderful weekend!
youve got a hole under ruster coope at the ends where you have the skids
I think you're seeing the ground gap, there is a full floor inside. The coop was built flat then had the skids added so there will be space under the coop between the skids.
Nice to see all the young ones frolicking in the sun! :-)
Almost 200k subscribers!!
Ah hope going on a date, i feel like my baby is going to be a mama, i remember when you first brought her home, fell on love with her, she is going to be a great mom
Big Big ❤ for anyone having a date today. Brings me memories of when I met the love of my life. I listened to some music before to take the edge off so you should too and listen to some like *Delta Parole* to relax and get ready. All the best from me xoxo
Good mauhnin Lumnah Acres! Can’t believe Hope went on her first date! She seems to have grown up fast! I called 14 eggs today. 🤷♀️ Hope Rusty gets with the program real quick. Maybe you should explain freezer camp to him! Lol!😂 salad looked so good, my stomach was growling! Boy, to go out in your yard and come in with dinner sure is wonderful, isn’t it! Take care!
Or crockpot camp
Hey guys!!! WEST TENNESSEE here sending you a shout out from one homestead to another!!! Hope all works it with the goats!!! awesome video!!!
Aw cute! Hope's first date :) Nothing better than to be able to raid your garden for fresh vegetables. Would you in future want to do a market garden?
12:30 Al, I've seen videos on RUclips, how to tame an aggressive rooster.
Look for it.
Good luck with that project.😉
Valdeck definitely worth the try👍🏻
got a little emotional seeing little hope got for her first date, Im so excited to see hope babies! I cant believe she is old enough already haha
After watching this, I have no doubt how much you care about your family and livestock. Thanks for sharing
I was surprised the two boy goats are going... do you plan to keep any goats in future for meat?
All you need now is garage/out building for truck, tractor, side by side, cars.
Really love your vlogs. Me and my Partner gets so much ideas from you guys specially carpentry . Your farm is awesome! 👍👍👍
Yay, I said 13! You all look like you got sun today, that nice healthy farm glow. I hope Hope enjoys her date with Zeke. I bet Rusty and the gang are enjoying that grass. We're dealing with a 600 pound black bear here on the mountain that is going to find himself turned into a bear rug soon. He's terrorizing properties all around the mountain, tearing up chicken coops, bee hives, goats and donkeys. I've got a small donkey and 2 goats so I'm having concerned. Blessings to all.
Dear Lummah Family, I watch several homestead vlogs, but gosh, I really miss you guys on your off days. Of course, you need the time off, but during this isolation, your are missed. Thank you for the effort it takes to vlog. Richard
when do you think you will start training Buttercup to the milking stand - or is it once the boys are ready for their new home
We are going to start milking buttercup soon
Pork spinach omelette!! Yum!?
Before you you decide on Rusty he produces offsping that look amazing, he might he worth keeping .
Or sell him.
I think I might be installing a big exhaust fan in one of end walls of your green house.
I have done several it makes a difference.
Hope, you're finally all grown up. *sobs* ^_^ can't wait to see little Hope babies~
Yay! So happy to see Rusty and his ladies out on pasture! And the pigs frolicking :-) I bet soon we will see moose and his girls get a move to a greener spot ❤️ Im so jelly to see you out in the garden cutting greens for your salads. You three are amazing!
Al. you could sell some of those Big Boulders and rocks to people for landscapes. I think Rusty is going to end up as a dinner. Al, collect your rain water in tanks to water the garden. Roof run off would be good for this also. Did you get your Bees yet?
There are rocks everywhere in New Hamshire therefore who would buy them!!!!
Al..your favorite little girl goat is turning into lady goat..awe. 💥
"I like it" I always say that the food you grow yourself tastes better...and hugely satisfying
1:58- the pigs are saying- ready set go. 😆😆. Then they run. Too cute
Pinch rusty behind his head and pin him down for at least a minute it helps i did it to mine
Yeah, I like my egg slicer too. It makes it so much neater lol
Good morning Lumnah family ☕️ special dinner guest Rusty 🤣 have a blessed day
If Rusty is being mean just pick him up and spin him around to make him dizzy set him down and gently knock him over a couple of times.
Two or three times and the roo usually avoids you and stops trying to attack.
You've failed that rooster unfortunately. You kept him cooped up in the green house for months then in that little coop for months on end. He's aggressive because he's had a miserable life. You should have socialized him more but you wanted him to breed and only that. Poor guy, you guys need to be the aggressor and not tolerate it. Teach Olivia not to be fearful of him. The rooster is protecting his flock, they do that if they're good roosters.
That poor rooster is probably crazy from being cooped up 24/7/365. My roosters I've raised have NEVER been aggressive towards me. They free range all day, all year. I don't love on them, I never said to "love" on them either LOL. Any caged animal would act the same way.
There is your next t-shirt pattern: Moose standing on those rocks and crowing so proud!
I remember hope from weed'em and reap hope was so small
I just want to ask WHAT BREED OF CAT IS FIGARO?
Tuxedo!!!!
what do you do with the goats you are not going to breed for milking? Hope that's not a too sensitive question. Is it freezerville or just hang out for the rest of their lives.
He's said he plans to rehome them. They really only want milk-producing goats and maybe a couple of bucks for breeding.
@@Bamboo4U2 thanks I missed that. He did tell me that the mother is in milk for 10 months after weaning. My Auntie had milking goats. They were much bigger, she didnt eat them. She would milk the goat mama, dilute the milk by half with water then bottle feed the babies. I didn't get to spend much time with her in North Western VA. We lived at the beach.
Aww a honeymoon suite...our baby is grown up :)
I really pray that hope will be better first time momma than Tilly, tilly is a great mom now but her first time poor little hope had a rough time
I can’t believe it’s already time for Hope to be a mama! I remember when she was first born. Can’t wait to see what she produces! So excited to see your homestead grow! Congratulations on your new additions to the homestead keep up the awesome work 👏🏼👍🏼👌🏼🙏🏼🙂
Maybe one of the black copper marans chicks will be a rooster, then you can say see ya to Rusty.
And I'm glad to see your lips all healed up, that's so painful & because its such a moveable place it seems hard to heal.
Hi, I'm here by chance, but I really liked the video, I was looking for content about animals. I'm following and supporting your Channel. A hug from Brazil.
I sure would like to see a overhead view of your homestead...to understand the layout of your homestead...is that possible? Drone?
I can't wait for more babies
You won't get 16 eggs until you contain your layers.
Soon they will be in your garden.
must be so hard having to wait for grass to grow where they live and yet trying to give the hens and Moose a little scratching around. They will get moved soon you watch!
It will be very interesting to see their offspring 💗🐐
Your Rooster "Moose" cracks me up! Looks like summer has come to your farm. It's still goofy weather here on the Oregon coast. The 9th is our last day for delivering lunches to the kid's. My garden is growing really well.. Stay cool and hydrate those bodies!
🕊💗🙏🏼
I'm not sure love is the right word for the buck's reaction to Hope.
The salad looked so yummy! Hope breeding is exciting! Y’all are so blessed!
i remember on weed em and reap when she was born
Hope you don't mind me asking Al , do you guy;s PARTY!!!, would be great to see vid;s of LA Social scene, Love the whole concept!!.God Protect you all.
Well, it looks like you’re getting MY weather. It’s 1:15 in the p.m. and I’m in 105* temperature. And my garden doesn’t like it. 😫😫. But I’ll keep on trying. I like the Arizona area, but my garden doesn’t.
Rehousing sounds great to me. ‘Crockpot’ sounds just fine.
Unbelievable weather!🤪😜🤯 I went 15 eggs with Livies and we were right if you count the eggs from Rusty's girls. Hope being a mama just warms my heart! Hearing you say you need to get rid of some does in the future sounds sad but I know you have to do what you have to do. 👑🐈
❤🙏
Good morning. Upstate NY the weather was a balmy 84* and humid a storm rolled in and this morning we have 58* with highs in the 68/70* weather today. Perfect gardening weather I love it! I love your little farm you are doing so many good things this year I'm excited for you guys. Are you going to eventually do something permanent with watering the high tunnel? Just wondering...yeah I know another project lol.
Hello Family , Took a Min. To Check up and see what you all have been Up to Boy it Looks Like A LOT !! LOL Crazy how time goes by so Fast.. Here working on our Homestead out in the Garden A lot Lately.. Had to put up a Large Deer Fence this season and enlarged the Size of the Garden. We do a No Till garden here.. And use only the Good stuff here lol on our Watering's ... And let the Worms do their work !! I see you have a Little Helper running around on the Homestead Now Full Time since there's No School ... That's nice to have extra Hands !! Ok Ill try and stop in again here Shortly ... Thank you for your Time..
I agree with Olivia. NO PEPPERS!!!! LOL! The rest of the salad stuff looks really good.
Rusty most likely is attacking you because he sees you as a threat to his precious girls, as well as boredom frustration from being cooped up all winter. A truly MEAN rooster is a rare thing, and as long as he's not chasing you around the yard desperately trying to sink his spurs into you, you've got a good chance of taming him down. I see a LOT of disturbing (and unnecessarily violent) advice posted here, which is why I'm commenting on a youtube video for the very first time.
There is no point in humiliating or risking injuring Rusty and forcing him to think that you are the "flock boss" because you're not. You're a human, not a chicken! He's the one in charge of protecting and mating the hens, and you want it to stay that way because he's with them 24/7, not you! When you interact with the flock, just stand your ground, scoop him up and away with your boot if he attacks you(try not to kick, you certainly don't want him injured), and occasionally walk "through" him (make him step out of your way). This will teach him that fighting with him isn't worth your time. Immediately after dismissing his attempts to challenge you, offer him and his girls food/treats to help him understand you're a source of peace and snacks. That's all chickens really want, after all.
If you have time to do it, having him sit on a towel in your lap every evening for a few episodes of your favorite tv show is how I tamed my most aggressive roosters. I've got two bachelor flocks, one with 10 breeding roos and one with 6 destined for the freezer (through no real fault of their own), as well as one that lives in my enclosed patio because he likes people better than other chickens.
If you can't get him to settle down after a couple weeks of patience and kindness, he may very well need to be culled. Just remember not to put human emotions on him, as tempting as it may be when he frustrates you. All he knows is how to be a rooster and if you look at him objectively, he's doing a very good job of it!
I wish I was closer, I'd take that handsome boy off your hands in a heartbeat! Best of luck with him, I hope he comes around quickly. ❤
Hey Al, My mother in law broke a chicken from wanting to set all the time by grabbing her and holding her head under water in a bucket till she almost drowned her. That was funny but it worked. I guess she figured if she drowned she would just go ahead and cook her up and make dumplins. Same deal may work with Rusty. If that didn't show him who's boss nothing would. Don't be gentle with him. Make him think he's going to die. Then turn him loose and start chasing him and if you catch him grab a hold of him and flip him on his head with your finger like you are pecking at him kind of like he would be pecking you. Give him a hard way to go so that he knows HIS fate lies in YOUR hands. Good luck with him. Great video. BTW, I don't think I would video showing Rusty who's boss. As much as I would love to watch it (I would probably die laughing), you probably better not.
I’m sorry about Rustys attitude. I had a grumpy rooster for a while too. Every time he came after me I began picking him up, hugging him and talking to him. Maybe I seemed too needy because it wasn’t long and he’d run when he saw me coming. 😂
I've watched all of this because of Hope only.And when I got to the point of cooking eggs in the slow cooker ...I wish u the best in all of your hard work. I still cry about my favorite Hope.Her mother rejected her ... And that family as well, by sending her from worms to freezing...
Moose is kick. Your chickens have entertaining personalities. Certainly adds to the fun of your channel. I believe having conversations with our animals increases human awareness. Good for them and us. Enjoy your day. Maybe Rusty is just tired of all the constant chirping. That's a lot of chicken racket. I can just see him perched somewhere quiet letting out a sigh of relief. I'd have a hard time taking care of too many animals and they'd all live to ripe old ages. So
I'll just enjoy your journey from afar.
Suggestion for grumpy rooster: when he gets aggressive pick him up hold him under your arm like a football. Walk around talk to him until he relaxes, put him down. If he tries again repeat. Have Olivia do the same. Always make them yield to you. Walk towards him dominate him. It take just a few tries and my aggressive roosters have stopped attacking me and others. They learn respect!
Okay Al you always throw great building ideas and how you build everything is so well done! But you just blew my mind with the pvc and the chicken netting... amazing!!! I will be using that in the future!
I had been going for 16 for quite awhile but since that didn't happen I chose 13. Yea!!!! I loved seeing the pigs on the run....one holllering "wait for me". I like the area you fenced off Rusty and his ladies. They look like they are enjoying being out doors. Their fencing is is great also.
I'm not a homesteader by any stretch, but it seems to me Premier Fencing has the best products on the market for homesteaders. There fences sure hold up to a lot of handling. The salad looked wonderful Gina and though I don't care for hard boiled eggs, those were beautiful. I hate seeing a dark ring around the yolk from cooking too long. Y'all have a Blessed day.
Just planted cucumbers hot peppers yesterday and today we planted bell peppers and tomatoes, corn and pumpkin or squash. I am going to try to plant zucchini in a bucket (I can't remember what it's called right off the top of my head) but Daniel Arms from Arms Family homestead does it and a few other's.
I hope "Rusty" calms down a bunch. He has been so aggressive toward You Al, maybe because you're another male. He needs to learn YOU are the "Alpha Male" on the homestead. Homegrown is the best!
Fantastic video family! Al thx for the tip w pvc pipe at building with the electric fence!! I’m doing that! Gina I love seeing u use the instapot, I think I need to buy one. Can u give us your thoughts on yours and which model you recommend newbies to buy?
Hope sister fern is also with a buck his name is iverson. Something like this
Iverson*
Something*
Oh that’s right she is! I didn’t even put that together! Thanks for bringing that to my attention 😄
Hope baby's hurray...can not wait to see them. Nice veggies from your garden.
Yes! I guessed the eggs again! NOW I'm ready for Vegas lol. jk. I enjoy learning from you the things I want to do with my own future homestead. Are you going to start making soap soon?
hey Al and Gina its really hot here in Canada(Gatineau Quebec 15 min from the Capital Ottawa . so you are not alone! I love your show Your Goats are enchanting.I watch you every morning.I am envious that you get to grow your own bacon and eggs and pork roast... Gina i have another recipe for pork chops with no tarrigon
(AL) this one is so good I have served it at Christmas
Al, it’s so nice to see you all working in the sunshine. That’s probably preferable to falling on the ice or freezing because of freezing or blizzard conditions. Your place is just beautiful in the summer weather you are having. Thank you for all of the work you do to allow us to come along.
Omg not sweet baby Hopie already...I remember when WEAR sent her off to you🤗🥺
I so L O V E your channel and look forward to having my coffee with the family and animals and have been doing so for about 1 1/2 years now only to find out my brother does the same thing and we live 100 miles apart! I fully understand the Rusty issue as my aunt had a very aggressive rooster and my uncle refused to dispatch of it. It would attack people as they got out of cars or left the house, it came to an end at the end of an iron spoon used to slop pigs wielded by my mother... :-/ I would think strategically placed sails would be a kindness for all the animals for shade in the large pastures, and... Watching Gina make the salad made me think to recommend she add Cobb Salad to her cookbook when there's left over chicken in the summer, such a treat and looks delicious to the eye as well.
Oh my god ! Finally . I am excited. I bet she will be the best mom.
