Lohre Farm is located just east of Crown, Minnesota. Sarah and I purchased our homestead in 2017 and have grown from a small garden to a few acres of sustainable food growth. With the help of our Children, we grow a variety of fruits and vegetables.
There are many animals on Lohre Farm, and with there help we can improve our soil health, all while producing farm fresh food to eat. We have chickens, ducks, cats and dogs. All of these animals assist in making our property more valuable and enjoyable.

Looking good guys! You should designate a section of property for wild flowers to support bees and butterflies and such... great video of the land!!
Thanks Sheri! That idea is definitely in the works.
Have you ever thought about bees on your homestead. You could sell the honey at your stand, local stores (offer them 20 percent that seen to be the going rate) good pollinaters. Check out some videos. Alot of information about it on RUclips. Great Homestead !
We have. However, there are only so many things I can have time for. I honestly would love to do this at some point down the road.
That's a beautiful place you've put together. And I appreciate how down to earth you both are. Thanks for the encouragement at the end.
Oh thank you. That is so nice. Thank you for watching!!
You have a beautiful homestead!
Oh thank you! ❤️
Next time you have a drought, dredge that pond out. Save the dirt/mud/muck for future garden compost. You can make the pond deeper to retain fish populations during future droughts.
Allen, we actually did do a pretty extensive restoration while we had the chance. The pond is so much healthier this year.
with all the word you say ... You try to create Heaven on earth
Wouldn’t that be nice. It all comes with a lot of hard work, but it sure is fun. You should check out what we have done this year ruclips.net/video/l9O-M8VIMRo/видео.html
I vote for a wild flower field, meat chicken tractors, and pumpkin field! Pigs would be fun, just don't name them!
I'm strongly leaning toward some sort of chicken tractor areas, and maybe pumpkins!
@@LohreFarm that would work perfect! They would clean up the pumpkins once you're done with them too right? I haven't done any research on of pumpkin vines are ok for chickens
We have had the chickens in the pumpkin patch many times. No injuries to report 😆.
😂
What a beautiful property. Those little yellow flowers look like rough sunflowers (not really sunflowers). They’re so pretty.
Thank you so much! Yes, they are absolutely beautiful and everywhere.
Are they sun chokes?
@@jacquelineiversen5661 yep, that is exactly what they are. I’ve never looked into it, but your question made me get up from video editing and go out in the rain to get one. Turns out these things have tons of health benefits. I guess we learn wonderful things everyday. Awesome. Thank you for that.
I just found your channel and absolutely love everything you have done to it. Look into growing an area of Jerusalem Articholes which are a perennial plant and you can eat the tubers in the late fall and throughout the winter. They are in the sunflower family and get pretty yellow flowers in the early fall. Another plant to grow would be comfrey.
Oh that’s so great. We actually have thousands of Jerusalem Artichokes all over the property. We are also looking into and planning a pretty decent sized natural herb garden.
Awesome property tour. Those elderberry bushes look pretty big.
Thank You! ❤ I'm glad you enjoyed our property tour. Yes, the elderberry bushes are pretty tall. This is actually the first year we have really paid much attention to them, and we seem to be finding more and more by the day. Pretty exciting find!
You guys are awesome, keep up the good work. Best wishes from New Zealand....Gaz
Thank you.
need to prune raspberries in winter .cut back near to ground
Just came across your channel:) when I heard you say “so” I was like are they in Minnesota 😌 I have family from there and I have fond memories of visiting Minnesota when I was a kid! Very nice farm you have!
Haha. That’s awesome. Thank you so much. ❤️
Have you ever thought of having bees. Could sell the honey at your veggie stand and maybe at some local stores, ect. Just a thought. Check out some videos on it and see if it's right for you.
Bees would be an awesome addition. We have worked really hard to attract as many as we can to the property. I have a friend that I would like to convince to put some of his bees here.
Awe I loved my barred rock roo! Seeing yours makes me miss mine. They have such a great demeanor.
Yes, they really are a great breed! Very friendly.
You could support a couple of beef cattle or an area to pasture 3 hair sheep. Provide your own meat. You could run a couple of meat chicken tractors too.
10 acres seems like a lot but it's not very big, so you can't have very many larger animals. They need a large space to move them from small pasture to the next small pasture to give each space 60 - 90 days before returning to that area.
Yes, Exactly. Animals take up an amazing amount of space. We are pretty fortunate that our neighbor provides out beef. We are probably leaning towards chicken tractors, as we will be able to move them quite easily. Also the life cycle being as short as it is with meat chickens will really reduce the seasonal time and demand.
Those little yellow flowers you were admiring toward the beginning of the video - I think they might be balsamroot flowers (or arrowroot). They grow wild all over the mountains here in western MT.
I think we had figured they were Jerusalem Artichokes.
👀
With your field, I would get some hair sheep to raise for meat. I have St. Croix sheep, and they are great. They improve the land by keeping the weeds under control, and fertilizing it. I use moveable electric fencing to move them every day. The meat is extremely tender and good.
That’s awesome. What type of moveable electric fence do you use?
@@LohreFarm I use O'brien step in posts, and poly braid wire on spools, and a portable electric fence charger to electrify the wire. It takes from 10 minutes to 30 minutes a day to set it up for the next day, depending on where I am moving them to. If the sheep don't come back to the same part of the pasture for at least 30 days, they never have any parasite problems. I have never had to treat them for parasites.
Everyone I watch says loofah takes forever
I believe it. We have never successfully grown it. Maybe this year!
Great video you guys!! The love and passion for your homestead is wonderful love everything you're doing and I know it's a lot of work but at the end of the day it's so gratifying. My wife and I share the same passions as you two and I plan to catch up on your other videos as well.
Oh that’s so nice. Thank you. We really hope you enjoy some of the videos!
Watch the video back to Eden that will help you plan out your I did notice around their trees they plant flowers very successful
Sounds interesting, we’ll have to check it out. Thank You! ❤️
Enjoyed your tour! Good video
Thanks Rocky. Glad you enjoyed it, have a pleasant evening!
Nice layout.
Thank You! Thank you for watching!
Nice job guys
Thank You!
Apple trees give good fruits after 4 to 5 years of growth
That’s what we’ve been learning.
Just subscribe to your channel Enjoy the video We'll be watching for the next one say save
That’s awesome. Sounds good! Thank you!! ❤️
I love how clean and organized everything is. Usually farms are messy and animals all over the place, but you guys done a great job at keeping nice and clean. I would love to buy a rooster from you if you guys were nearby. God bless you both🎉
We try our best. Messiness usually comes and goes. We do the best we can. Thanks for watching! ❤️
looks good. very similar to our place.
Awesome! Enjoy every bit of it.
@@LohreFarm lol except when i have to fix something. Which is all the time🤣🤣
Can you provide a link to, or video or video drawing showing the locations on the land of the fruit trees, the garden, the house, the barn, the chicken coop, turkeys, pigs pen, goat enclosure. etc.
We don't really have anything like that. Might not be a bad idea in the future. We do have a ton of videos on here that can give you a good idea of the setup. Check out the garden tours. ruclips.net/video/1xATPYNZHgw/видео.html
Beautiful Homestead. I was wondering, your wife looks like she's wearing an Air Force hat? It kinda looks like it has those Air Force Falcon wings.
Thank you. I’m pretty sure the hat says “Barn Hair, Don’t care”
👌🏻👌🏻
I would love to park my RV there. Wouldn't that be fun. Rent out a night or two for us city people
Haha. I love the thought of that myself. Unfortunately this is usually a pretty noisy busy place with all the ducks, chickens, cats and dogs. And all the machinery running most of the time.
How many acres is your pond? Also, how many barn cats do you have and are they all you use to fight against mice in the barn? How effective are they? How do you feed them? (Ive heard if you feed barn cats too much they won't go after the mice as much.)
First off, thanks for watching! Awesome. The pond is a little under one acre in size. When it is full of water in the spring it is so beautiful. We have a restoration project that is still needs a little finishing though.
The Barn Cats: We have 3. We do feed them dry cat food, as well as, canned wet food. The wet food is more of a treat for them, so they only get that once a week or so. There is definitely a major difference mice with and without the cats. I can't really say that feeding them has diminished their effectiveness on controlling the mice population though.
We just made a new tour video you may want to check out. ruclips.net/video/l9O-M8VIMRo/видео.html
@@LohreFarm Awesome, I'll definitely watch the updated tour. Thanks for the response. Do you only have mice problems in the barn or do you have mice in your home sometimes too? Any cats for the house?
Plant clover in that 31k sq' to feed deer and then feed yourselves ;)
Haha. That was exactly what we ended up doing. Great suggestion!!
The yellow flowers may be sun chokes, look er up
Yep, I think we have determined that is exactly what they are. Thanks. Hope you enjoyed the video!
Total Side 10 Acid(Acide) you practice &t total Practice same Land you peach 10 Aced prose
I'm sorry. I'm not really understanding your comment. Thank you for watching!
Lots of water
Yes, we have quite a nice bit of water. The pond is actually down a lot though.
How much investment in your 10acr up to date
Not that much honestly. Idk for sure but tractor, barn and greenhouse and things for the animals around 7-10K maybe. Much more in blood, sweat and tears.

Don't trim apple trees now, wait until January or February to trim
That’s some great advice. Thank Mike! Thanks for watching!!
Way to cut off your wife...she clearly know the trees better than you. Crappy relationship...
