If I was rich I would not only fund his whole Kickstarter but I would like to own one of his mills too. This is what America needs to get back to. Thank you for sharing.
That’s so awesome I totally agree that every community needs a grain mill. They played such an important role in the history of the Appalachian mountains. People need to come together like that again. We still grind our own corn mill out of the same hickory king corn used there and it doesn’t get any better than that.
Best video so far out of the videos put out on Justin's mills. You really got your camera in there and showed us the process. I have watched a few out of the YT'ers that were out there that day and yours was the most informative. Thank you!
I bought one of those corn shellers at a garage sale a few years ago. I was going to sell it but when things went crazy and locked down I decided I better keep it because I might need it some day.
This was so good to see. It breaks my heart knowing that we are losing the last of the people who know how to take care of themselves as well as others through land, animals and plants...in a good way. I will check out his channel for sure! Wish I could give to the Kickstarter but I'm unable to at this point. Jason I found you and your sweet family through Justin and Rebecca whom I found through Jess and Miah. I am currently doing the same thing I did with them, going back to the start of your videos and watching/liking them all to catch up. Thanks for all the tips and knowledge. Bless y'all, stay safe. ✌️
Corn Meal Mush is THE BOMB. You cook it like polenta (cuz thats what it is), then put in into a cake pan. When it cools, it solidifies into a slab (which you can freeze). Then some cold winter morning, pan-fry slices in butter and drown in maple syrup for a real "stick to your ribs" breakfast. It's easy, tasty, and CHEAP.
You guys are soo full of heart... in all you do. Thanks for sharing and educating us along the way. I remember my grandmother in India going to a grain vendor & pick the quality of grain she preferred, standing by as they took her order, transfered it to a mill... she then waited till they milled and bagged & then a delivery guy came with her to drop her freshly milled grain home. All this time, she watched like a hawk, that the quality of grain she choose, was what was finally delivered to her:)
Jason you have become very skilled at making videos the Best! Not leaving beautiful lady Loraine and sweet Penelope out. Great job great family. Good entertaining, informative and I loved It! Thank you.
WOW!!!!!! I am so impressed with the skill & knowledge of Justin, metal working & forging is a skill not many still have. How very cool that you got to visit and learn.
I just say a Vlog on Jason and the mill yesterday with your neighbors Ben & Meg. It takes time to save 💰 money. You did an excellent job with your camera. Love how the corn cob 🌽 shot out. Then your buddy takes it home. Perfect. GOD BLESS YOU FROM S E MICHIGAN.
I love how everyone has come together to support Justin on his mission to get mills back into the community. Love to see how everyone has come together like this. I saw on hood channel where he has exceeded his goal. I think it is just amazing.
Oh wow!! This is amazing!! This kinda thing makes me start wondering what niche I could fill could bring our community back to a more sustainable place.
That was awesome watching that corn shucker that spit the cob back out !! What a neat contraption It was neat seeing and learning about the different mills. I never knew grain lost so much of its nutrients so fast, I mean I knew fresh was the most nutritional but what we buy on the shelves in the stores must be void of any nutrition. So our grains are nutritionless and because of mass production farms not tending the land properly, if you purchase your vegetables and fruits from the store they are also practically nutritionless. No wonder our bodies want to eat more... they are looking for the missing vitamin and minerals. Thank you for sharing Jason. Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. May God continue to bless you, your family and your adventures.
The 1940 International Harvester "M" tractor had a bull wheel we always used for powering the thresher and stationary seed cleaner. We put oats and wheat through that. You gotta "Sow the Land" to grown the grains! Yes, that Kickstarter! Blessings Abound!
Hello to the Sow the land family. Okay you guys inspired me and my husband as well as many other homesteaders to start a garden and we also bought some laying chickens and as soon as possible we are getting some meat chickens to raise to butcher for our freezer how exciting is that okay my question is which is unrelated to this but I am new to gardening I live in Chicago Illinois and I have no idea when to plant my garden I have three started everything in my house as far as the tomatoes peppers jalapenos lettuce Basel Exedra I planted them outside yesterday I transferred them I started kind of early but the weather went crazy on me when do I actually plant my garden what and when do you plant certain things I have no idea anyways I'm so excited to learn the way of homesteading it's been a challenge but it's fun at the same time if that makes sense I'm sure you can relate thank you all so much for sharing your life with me and my husband we watch you all the time God bless
This was a great video. Can remember grandpa talking about going to the mill to get his wheat and corn ground. I can remember also going to the local co-op with him always raised his own corn for feed for all his animals they would grind it up and put it in feed sacks. Thank you for sharing
Also this man truly knows what he’s talking about when it comes to grain! It’s so much better to mill your own grain, not only for yourself but for your animals too
Hello from the Mitten, We have followed you guys from the beginning & love your story! We've smiled, laughed & cried with & for you through all life's struggles & benefits. You are a talented family, each of you, we look forward to what you do & create. We also love Justin & can't even thank you enough for supporting him in his dream & helping his kickstarter. We love all that he stands for & his lovely family. We love you guys & all you stand for!!
wow Jason that was so cool. i am a lover of tools, but old tools really wins my heart over. much appreciation for taking us along on that trip. i feel like a kid in school going on a field trip. God bless you and your family 💕❣️💕.
You have a gift with these videos Jason. You definitely make it simple and hold our attention at the same time! Looking forward to more about this in the future.
As a kid, dad grew acres of corn, we hand picked the corn and then we use that corn removal to remove the grains off the cob. Then the grains of corn were stored for feed for the pigs to eat in a silo. Then the corn was ground down for feed.
When I was younger my parents would go to the mill and mill corn 🌽 they go rid of it and I haven’t seen one since. He is doing an amazing job bring back the mills. I enjoyed watching his work. Keep up the good work and I will keep watching. Thanks for sharing.
Fascinating to watch and understand what you're doing. Love it! People all over the USA should be seeing this. I know there would have to be so many who appreciate and be excited to know what you're doing.
Justin I love your mission. I grew up going to a community mill and loved going with my Pappy and seeing the grain milled. Please make this common again!
WOW!!! I remember seeing this sort of thing in Croatia many years ago. Difference was it was done manually and with donkeys as well! Good on you guys for assisting to keep this sort of community milling alive in your area!! Good luck.
Thanks for sharing all this history with us. I have seen one or two of these things done and my grandmother used to make cornmeal mush for her supper. Not very many people I know recognizes the term “cornmeal mush” or knows what it is! I thoroughly enjoyed this video! I watch all your videos when I come across them. You have a great family, too, including your FIL and MOIL!!! Good job!!!
Enjoyed the video Jason. Justins mill that the corn mill was milled in was made in North Wilkesboro in Wilkes County and I heard him say that one piece of granite came from North Carolina Granite in Surry County. Its the county I live in. Its the largest open faced granite quarry in the world.. Jason y'all will have to try some cornmeal mush. Its really good. Y'all take acre and God bless.
Thank you so much!! Had a great time milling with you folks. Hope the pancakes were as good as they looked!!
The Wife and I have been raising and milling our own heirloom corn for over forty years..
Hope grain mills are able to make a comeback. I’m too old to do these things but would love to buy it from someone. Thank you

Love this...I graduated from Mars Hill and live close to North Wilkesboro where the red feed mill was made! It's a small world after all!
I remember using the corn cobber machine at my grand paprents farm when growing up
When I lived in Holland, I was blessed with visiting a huge mill that was powered by a large Dutch Windmill. Awesome
Jason you have become very skilled at making videos the Best! Not leaving beautiful lady Loraine and sweet Penelope out. Great job great family. Good entertaining, informative and I loved It! Thank you.
What a fantastic idea and demonstration!!! Those pancakes look so delicious!!!
WOW!!!!!! I am so impressed with the skill & knowledge of Justin, metal working & forging is a skill not many still have. How very cool that you got to visit and learn.
Wow so neat. We need more people like him to bring back the old ways.!
Justin is making his rounds these last few weeks! 😉👍🏻
LOOOOOVE this! Back to basics! We need this so much in this country.
Justin has the best accent. He needs to do something with that voice.
He is also gentle on the eyes 👀 😍
I just say a Vlog on Jason and the mill yesterday with your neighbors Ben & Meg. It takes time to save 💰 money.
You did an excellent job with your camera. Love how the corn cob 🌽 shot out. Then your buddy takes it home. Perfect.

That corn machine is very cool.
Hi..... Jason, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🏡🎥👍👍👍
Wow that is awesome!! Thank you guys for sharing ❤️❤️
Great video. Love the old time mills. My uncle had some on his farm, but I was very young when I remember him using them with corn 🌽 and flax. 💖
This was a great video. Can remember grandpa talking about going to the mill to get his wheat and corn ground. I can remember also going to the local co-op with him always raised his own corn for feed for all his animals they would grind it up and put it in feed sacks. Thank you for sharing
Thanks Jason!! Everyone is falling in love with the new grain mill and Justro Metcalf😁
Awesome video. I love it.👍❤️
Thank you SowThe Land for showing Justin's grain mill. You are a good friend and not out to show yourself off. Appreciate you.
Jason you are no longer an amateur vlogger this is an excellent video thank you!
Very informative really enjoyed this! Thank you so much 👍👍
Looks like fun!!
Also this man truly knows what he’s talking about when it comes to grain! It’s so much better to mill your own grain, not only for yourself but for your animals too
Love this video! That guy is a national treasure. Only way we save America is by going local again and rebuilding communities all across the country
Jason, you truly are living the American dream!
Justin is a fantastic teacher. I love watching his videos because you learn so much from him.
The Kickstarter hit his goal!
Just when I think someone else has It, ya'll pick the most fun music.
We have my husbands grandpa’s old corn “plucker” and box. It’s something we will cherish for a long time.
Thank you for showing this man. He is an American treasure. God bless
Great video. Very informative.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Nice video man thanks for sharing
What a great guy. Isn't it something how people like this just pop up when you least expect them but always when you need them. Best of luck Justin.
Those dried corn cobs are excellent fire starters.
You have a gift with these videos Jason. You definitely make it simple and hold our attention at the same time! Looking forward to more about this in the future.

Off grinders, gridders are thee best and healthiest folks.
Good video Sow of the land!!🤙
Legit master of his craft!!!
I love Justin he is pure and knows what is true about milling. I have a electrical mill and I have milled wheat for homemade bread.
excellent job showcasing how the mill works, from cob to plate
😊
When I was younger my parents would go to the mill and mill corn 🌽 they go rid of it and I haven’t seen one since. He is doing an amazing job bring back the mills. I enjoyed watching his work. Keep up the good work and I will keep watching. Thanks for sharing.
Fascinating to watch and understand what you're doing. Love it! People all over the USA should be seeing this. I know there would have to be so many who appreciate and be excited to know what you're doing.
You da man Jason!
Wow how wonderful! I wish we had something like this here where I live. I could see this being the best way to bring back the older ways again🙏
Glad people like that gentlemen still exist! Wish him the best
Awesome video supporting Justin. Best one I’ve watched, very entertaining and informative.
What a neat place! ❤️ Those pancakes looked delicious, too! 😋
Justin I love your mission. I grew up going to a community mill and loved going with my Pappy and seeing the grain milled. Please make this common again!
LOVED IT !!! LOVED IT !!!! you guys are amazing - Jason your builds are just amazing. Cheers Denise- Australia
I wish I could have one of Justin's mills. That would be so cool. Grow your own grains then mill them for your family's use.
That is really neat. Thanks so much for featuring this. I hope they're successful in helping set up mills around the country.
He made his goal!!!!! YAY!!!
🎉
Very interesting and a great idea. Who knew about that slick corn huller? Thanks for sharing, and Lorraine, amazing pancakes!🌟
What a wonderful video Jason. Loved it ❣️
Thank you so much Metcalf MIlls. We are going to need Mills again very soon.
WOW!!! I remember seeing this sort of thing in Croatia many years ago. Difference was it was done manually and with donkeys as well! Good on you guys for assisting to keep this sort of community milling alive in your area!! Good luck.
Thanks for sharing all this history with us. I have seen one or two of these things done and my grandmother used to make cornmeal mush for her supper.

Very interesting we have a mill here in Texas on a working farm. I've bought flour there.
That was a cool video!! Thanks for sharing. He is doing a fantastic service.
Enjoyed the video Jason. Justins mill that the corn mill was milled in was made in North Wilkesboro in Wilkes County and I heard him say that one piece of granite came from North Carolina Granite in Surry County. Its the county I live in. Its the largest open faced granite quarry in the world.. Jason y'all will have to try some cornmeal mush. Its really good. Y'all take acre and God bless.
Ok I've watched 3 videos of visitors for the mill but Jason Yours is the best😊
This gentleman's family will live/survive forever....God bless....so far removed from the toxic world of federal interference.
Wow, awesome to see. Those pancakes looked awesome!
That was a great video and those pancake’s yumO
Exceptional coverage of old time milling. Great educational video. Thank you.
That is what I call community, It's nice to see that it still exists
That you for sharing 👍
Man this dude is tha bomb
Thanks we have a local mill that was a life saver at the beginning of 2020. Corn milled is the best.
Really great that you are supporting him.
Fantastic post, great, informative content. Love your work💕
