Being an older city gal, I found this great teaching video very informative! Isn’t it amazing that all the things you need to build your compost week after week God has provided and you in turn make your garden beds and grow the food for your family! Our God is truly amazing! Ben, this was such a great teaching video…thank you for your time and effort! I truly love your family and may God continually bless your beautiful family💜.
I really enjoy this I'm 65 and I think even I can do this in my backyard and I live in the city but I've got enough room to grow my own food now I see how to make compose very easy
@@purpletulips4648 I'm 66 and have had some minor success growing food for hubby and I. I live in the desert and no amount of watering let's my summer plants to survive Winter....no proclem!
Two things get me excited is, compost and chickens. I also compost by using my chickens and a compost area in their run. Fantastic way of making compost using the girls. It gives them a job through out the day and makes for happy chooks, not bored chooks. Great video. Blessings from Australia ❤️
I'm sure you have thought of it, but those corn stalks are gold! cow feed, pig feed, shredded up for silage and chipped up for compost....great stuff, would love to see how you use them!
Leaf mound is such a beautiful compost, or as we up here in Canada call it composted shredded leaves. Lawn mower works great to shred those leaves. Then we dump them on the garden beds so the worms stay busy all winter. We also have contained areas for piles more of it. Makes awesome soil
BEN , I LOVE THIS VIDEO! So simple! So effective! So money-saving, soul-improving, waste-reducing, inflation-proofing, self-helping video! Thank you! Love it!
The smaller the pieces in a compost pile the faster it breaks down. Charles Dowding has good videos on compost. Having a closed loop system is beneficial to any garden.
There are few better smells than that rich, pure, glorious soil. Thanks for sharing again today, folks! Totally loving seeing your guys so often! Heather🇨🇦
I've got the most amazing soil because I feed the worms!!! After digging or harvesting all my plants I use the hole that was made to put greens back in it. Then I go to my chicken coop compost pile and top all of my garden area with the compost. Then I COVER FOR THE WINTER. OMGosh guys/gals....if you want plants on steroids...trust me it's awesome!!! This was only my second year on my new homestead and the results I had for a new garden was amazing!!! In spring....Just plant.
Also I am in Wisconsin zone 4. When I plant my tomatoes I do add calcium and bone meal and blood meal only because they are such heavy feeders. You should see my tomatoes this year. 7 plants and so far 125 big tomatoes so far.
You keep doing what you are doing free compost and not free because you are putting the work in and man isn't there something special about a labor of loving what you are doing. Congratulations 👏 👏 👏 our friend
Really informative. I enjoyed seeing all three stages at once. You got the timing perfect for this video. Sounds like there is need for good compost; so, if you have more than you need, sell it. Another income stream is always a good thing. 😉
Such hard workers are you all. I wish I’d married a homesteader minded guy. I try to do what I can in a small way but hard work being good for the soul is bad on my back 😞. Still, watching y’all inspires me 🤗
Compost is 100% the reason we have chickens. Eggs are just a bonus. I really like the concept your using here. Might have to try it out. Thanks for sharing!
Hi, Meg your a sweetheart. You remind me of my daughter. I enjoy your videos so very much! We can't free range our Chickens because of dogs and other predators. Lost 53 Chickens this year neighbors dogs!!! Very upsetting So we put a electric fence and a Camera around our coup and run.We do deep litter in our coop and our run. Wood chips in the coop and in the run adding more when it needs it. The chickens keeps it turned .We clean the wood chips out 2 times a year from the lot. Chicken coop gets cleaned more often.which they have already broken down a lot and we put them on our compost piles. It's healthier for the chickens than being on just dirt! I just thought I would tell you how we do it now lol. I'm 57 had chickens almost all my life! I can remember how we free ranged them and nothing ever bothered them.That was the good old days! can't wait to see your next video!!!!!
I have NEVER seen anyone more excited than me about compost until you started making video's a number of years ago now! It's a Wonderful feeling knowing that you made that compost & had a say about what went into it! Yes!!!! your right about the level of compost that's being sold right now across the USA!!!!! Even bagged compost is basically nothing but wood chips!!!
Ben, this is a fantastic video and your composting skills are off the charts. Thanks for showing us your hands-on and step by step method. Your family farm is a real working homestead. 💪 Take care and God Bless
Wow, very informative; thanks for sharing! I have a pallet compost, two bins, & have made soil by continually adding veggie peelings, grass clippings, etc. I have learned a lot by watching your channel. Hey, I’m almost 70 yrs. gramma; if I can do it, anyone can! Many blessings to your family 🤗❤️🇨🇦
It is amazing how many places you can find material to compost. We intend to give our number to people with fall decorations on their porches (pumpkins, straw) and will go pick it up at the beginning of winter. Our chickens will eat the pumpkins and the straw will go in a thick layer in their coop to keep them warm during the winter while it is composting below them. In the spring we will dig out the compost and cover the garden. We also pick up bags of leaves and grass clippings from our little city dump. Local coffee shops give us their used coffee grounds. Lots of free resources!
love all your videos and have been following for years, keep up the good work!!!!! we just got 1.2 acres 8 chickens and today we are starting our compost pile !!!! thanks for the motivation!!!
We've never been able to source good, quality compost here. The stuff we've bought in the past has not made good soil the first year or so after putting it down. Making our own is something I've been experimenting with for the last several years now and I'm finally starting to be successful with it. I love your methods and plan on trying your chicken piles
R E S P E C T ! I am a dirt lover from way back. I have been composting for gardens for 30 years. My latest goal….. I call ‘my compostable life’ I want everything I own to be compostable. I am working on it. Ashes to ashes…..
This is a very great opportunity for so many people - put those chickens to work! So glad you are video-ing and sharing and keeping us up to date with progress. So cool producing good from just waste. Now just invent three portable compost bins that can be installed over a slightly raised bed hooked to a chicken tractor and instead of moving the piles, just fork them into the next bin and the next until you have to move them up the slightly raised bed. Mulch in place for a future garden bed and moving the chickens along the production disassembly line. Whoa! what a concept.
This video was very informative. Thank you. I do want to mention, my grandma taught me to rotate what you plant and where. One adds where something reduced planted the previous year. (she tried to explain that to a farmer who planted corn, year after year after year. He wondered why his corn was looking so bad.) She studied animal husbandry and horticulture and rocked it.
If y'all get enough compost together, you'll be able to feed a plot of corn that's large enough to make more than one batch of tamales!! Lol. I sheet compost, mostly, with my chickens because I am able to let them range. They still love kitchen scraps and I have some girls that love to garden along with me. No matter what, all weeds go to the chickens. In fact, I don;t think we've thrown away anything that was the least bit biodegradable in years! Even when we had a "plumbing issue" and a case of TP got soaked, that went into the compost pile and got churned up by the chickens.
My son passed his first driving test today, yay! He worked hard and did a good job. I'm so happy and proud. Compost with chickens, cool! Nice system Ben. Not having the bits of plastic in your compost is another great by-product of making your own compost. We have bits of plastic in everything we buy in bags to use in the garden. It's disappointing. Your soul must be feeling really good right now! Thanks for this Ben.
this grandma learns something BIG every time I watch your videos!!! Tell Buggy we wish her a very big blessed birthday!!! She is so beautiful, just like mommy and daddy!
Y’all have a great system! Never really thought of the process of composting but it is interesting. Work smarter not harder, the chickens do the work! Amazing!
I'm getting excited that it's almost the season for leaves! Didn't collect any last yr because I was busy moving out of my house so I'm really itching to rebuild my pile!
I love your videos and admire the way you are learning to be self sufficient! What a great way of life and wonderful way to raise children. Plus, I learn from your experiences.
Excellent video! Compost is one of my love languages too. Thank you for showing just a little bit different way to do things by keeping chickens in a static coop rather than moving them regularly.
Good stuff right here. I do direct fertilization in my flower beds. Plastic coffee can, put holes in the bottom, bury in soil, put in kitchen vegetable and fruit scraps, put on the lid, check once in a while to refill. It doesn't smell, because any opening is under the dirt.
Wow I wished I knew all of this 30 years ago when I started my Farm, Love your family and Buggy she is so sweet and your wife sure knows how to feed the family Have a Gson name Cortland think you have a son with the same name
Good video on composting your channel is getting better and better do more stuff like that it's very interesting whatever you can do to reuse get something for free that's what people are watching these days they all don't want to pay for it on everything so expensive great job keep up the homestead 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🍉🍉🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great compost system Ben. I'm sure you'll have a ton of it come next spring when garden planting comes around. Leaves are great to build up compost piles. Go around town and collect bags and bags of them in the fall. You can also use them for chicken bedding and then put them on your compost pile. Works like magic!
5 years after my static chicken run off the coop was built, I am still mad at my husband and neighbor for ignoring me when I said to make the door wider! It is 1 1'2" smaller than my narrowest wheelbarrow. It is at least twice the size of yours and impossible to fill with chips or remove the finished compost except for a shovel at a time. I am still after him to dig up the 4 x 4 post that they put 2' in the ground and enlarge to opening! There are yards and yards of finished compost I need on the garden just sitting there. Add to the fact that the new chips have to be put in a shovel full at a time while our tractor and bucket sit by idle. LOL He should have just listened to me!😊😊
Your videos are great. I enjoy watching you and your family along with the chickens when you all are working in a time lapse situation. It really drives home the point depicted in each situation. The choreographed music makes it all very pertinent. It's quite entertaining as well as educational. 🤗👏👍🎯
I love the process. Excellent work. You definitely gave me something to think about. And you are giving back to the earth 🌍, I have seen sooo many taking from the earth 🌍 and not many putting back to the earth. So Thank you 😊 and many blessings… love and light. ✌🏼🐝🫙♻️☺️🌻
what a great, informative video! I love that you had the several stages to show exactly how to do it and what each stage looks like. Ive been planning to use my chickens to compost but hadn't figured out exactly how I would do it. I have 12 raised beds and trying to top them off with a few inches of compost every year, it takes quite a bit of compost. this is going to help me so much!
Great video - amazing compost! Knowing how hot it is there and seeing that steam still coming off the oldest pile--that's just good stuff and it's going to be so great for your garden beds next spring!
Hey Ben. Add gypsum to the surface of the ground before you compost,, it will help break down the clay, and make it easier to change into soil with the addition of the compost your making Keep up the great work guys your awesome
My composting efforts are much smaller in scale and less hands on, but so is my garden! So I guess what I’m saying is as long as I can make enough so I won’t have to buy it, I’m pleased! Thanks for the encouragement! ♥️👍🙏🇺🇸🤓
Starting my second this weekend. Digging thetrree line creek beds out chickens have been in that area two weeks. Leaves sticks weeds. Building it where their coop is and winter run will be incase poison ivy grows in it
Dont forget you can use your grass clippings. Whatever the cow doesnt eat. Thats the base of my compost & its black gold! I ❤️ compost too lol. Nice vid!!
Your composting work is great. You need to make a how to video for newcomers and put it in your store so they can order it and have it in their home reference library. You guys rock.!!!

I'm doing both. SMH

Yep my main compost filler at the end of harvest. Shredded they make awesome compost and so much of it.

This cycle of the land is fascinating.
Can not wait for the next spring to see your hard work paid off 😍👍🏼
Hi.... Meg and Ben, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🏡🎥👍👍👍
Love chickens, love compost and love watching/hearing you talk about chickens and compost. 🥰
Excellent way of making compost and also being more self reliant.
I miss living this way and cannot wait until we are able to buy a house with land. Chickens will be one of the first things I get again!
"Compost is my love language" I would so wear that on a shirt!❤
BEN , I LOVE THIS VIDEO! So simple! So effective! So money-saving, soul-improving, waste-reducing, inflation-proofing, self-helping video! Thank you! Love it!
Damn it Ben!! Now I’ll never get the inside of my house clean because I have another reason to play in dirt with my chickens. 😝
The smaller the pieces in a compost pile the faster it breaks down. Charles Dowding has good videos on compost. Having a closed loop system is beneficial to any garden.
Thankyou for showing the in and outs more of composting. I understand a little more about composting!
This is a whole lot of work to me. Do you do it part time or what?

Years ago I learned about composting. Then I made my own compost pile and couldn’t believe the rich, gorgeous soil that it turned into. 😎
My chicken compost is out of pallet - works great and the garden loves it. Beautiful Family you have!

This fall ask landscapers if they need a place to dump leaves? Just a thought. Love learning from your videos!❤
Your chickens never get bored and start pecking on each other. You keep them busy.
At over 100 bucks a yard around here I've gotta be on my compost game. Deep bedding under the chickens helps quite a bit.
good for the soul, and good for the soil, too!

Starting my second this weekend. Digging thetrree line creek beds out chickens have been in that area two weeks. Leaves sticks weeds. Building it where their coop is and winter run will be incase poison ivy grows in it
So, chicks are well taken care of. Thanks for the lesson, Ben. Just love your back ground music.
Dont forget you can use your grass clippings. Whatever the cow doesnt eat. Thats the base of my compost & its black gold! I ❤️ compost too lol. Nice vid!!
