      The only problem with these long videos is they’re so captivating I want to sit down and watch, as opposed to having it on in the background. I consider it a positive problem though and one I’m happy to have!

      I was just thinking the same thing!! I love love LOVE the longer videos. I love the closeups of the cat and dogs, I love just being here with them as they do their daily tasks. I know it must be irritating to have to move the camera often as they must have to do, and the editing has to take a while. It's so smooth though! Great transitions from shot to shot. Just wonderful and soothing to watch, and I learn so much! Keep it up guys!!!

    Loved the video as always. I was very curious what the point of fermenting chicken feed is. So for anyone else who's curious:
    ''Not only does fermentation preserve the vitamins in your grains, it also creates new vitamins, primarily B vitamins like folic acid, riboflavin, niacin, and thiamin. In short, fermenting your chicken feed leads to better eggs, better hen health, and lower feed costs.''
    Very cool. I had no idea. I guess you learn something new every day!

    Now, that’s living the life! Great garden, delicious meals, cool honey bees, a couple that works together, has fun, enjoys each other’s company and gets to see absolutely beautiful scenery! Yep, that’s the life to live! Thank y’all for sharing!

    I think I’ve watched nearly every video you’ve done. I’ve been watching since just shortly after you moved to Alaska. I still get excited whenever a new video drops. I really enjoy y’all’s authenticity and great production values. So much of RUclips is so fake that y’all really stand out. Love it. Really inspiring. Look forward to all your future endeavors.

    I love when you share your bees with us!! I’ve always thought beekeeping was the most interesting thing ever! I haven’t yet been able to get over my fear of insects, but I love learning with you.Thank you for sharing.

    Hi guys, I admire how you guys live. I live in the city of Amsterdam and I used to have an allotment but I had to let it go when my husband got ill and my spare time was nonexistent. But nowadays when I have feelings of getting back an allotment I just watch you guys and plant lettuce in pots in my small garden. Thank you for making these videos👍🏼🌻
    Gosh you guys eat really well and what is so extra special, it came out of your own labour, I love that ❤️🍀

    25:50 Bandit's like "You gonna give me some of that bagel???" Btw, those gun holders on your ATV are awesome.

    Your videos just keep getting better and better. The storytelling, the incredible landscapes and the perpetual rewards for your steadfast passion and work. You guys have created a slice of heaven out in Alaska and i always learn something during one of your adventures. I make my own bread now and am changing so many of my shopping habits to reduce packaging waste. You guys set such great examples by actions and never by preaching.

    I've been a subscriber to your Channel since day one. It's been wonderful watching you learn and perfect what you are doing. I've lived off grid in Trapper Creek Alaska for 19 years now and I have learned so much from you in just the few years you've been here. I want to thank you so very much!!!! I truly love you young ones!!!❤✌🏻😊 I must let you know that I feel like a proud grandmother to you guys. Just know that I am so proud of you both!!! And your dogs! They've turned into good Alaskan dogs!
