On the new feeder for the girls, you might try some window screen curtains in the winter. Make them to roll up or take off. It will allow air and light but screen the flakes to drop outside the roof line. Just an idea.
my suggestion would be to lower the roof to the top of the feeder and then put hinges on the roof so you can lift it up to load it and once you finish loading put the roof back down over it
Is it a garden tool shed? Store away during the winter, put it out in the spring. Plus an area to stack bushel baskets? A belated Happy Birthday to Hope. I missed Jan 11th, sorry little Arizonan. Have a happy second year!
Leslie C That is what I thought too. So Gina doesn’t have to haul her garden tools in and out each time she works in the garden. Only I think she will put pretty pots of flowers on the little side “deck.”
@@noocemiller6005 ... Great "modern-steaders" thinking alike! I like your idea for the deck. It would also be a good place to set flats while preparing to start working. Or a place to sit & gaze.
I am happy to hear that she doesn't have to wait in the cold weather. You guys build some amazing buildings and I watch your videos every morning at 5am. Keep bringing them because I look forward to them every morning
It might be a place for Olivia to wait for the bus. Gina is so creative so there's no telling what it is. Lumanh Acres is a winter wonderland . How beautiful.. God bless you and your family and your homestead. Have you every noticed Hope is the first time to try anything. How funny is that a goat from Arizona is the first to be in the snow. She's a leader.♥️🇺🇸✝️🤩
In southern New England the temp is going to drop here the next few days, you guys are a lot colder than us, appreciate the Love of working the land and sustainability your family is displaying and sharing it with us, the good Earth has a lot to offer to those who treat it as it was designed to be, caring for our four legged friends is what we were originally purposed to do, and your family is certainly doing your part, keep on keeping on😀
Is this a bandstand Al for you and Gina and Livy to begin a NH rock concert festival series in your new pasture this upcoming summer??? Al you are so very lucky to have such a wonderful partner as your Gina. My best to you all from a snow free Vineyard.
I made my goat hay feeders with the roof down on top of the feeder and hinged the roof to put hay in. They also have more overhang. We never had trouble with rain or snow in the feeders.
I love that you can see the girl goat's hay feeder in the same frame with New Yolk City. I still have no idea what you are building but it is great that it's strong enough to survive a hurricane. A little night plowing was fun. I partly watch your channel because it makes me feel better about my horrible weather when yours is so much worse. God bless you all.
We live in the desert so we do not have to shovel sunshine, but we have to hunker down in the Summer . We have to stay in the air conditioning. Love to see all the animals.
Way down here in PA we only got about 2-3 inches of snow I can see the tops of the grass just sticking through. Gina so glad to see you are comfortable infront of the camera. I don't think you were so comfortable a year or so ago. God bless you all.
I have wanted to suggest this from the time you put out the 7 goat grain bins out of doors. They collect snow, rain, etc. Simple fix, just put on a hinged wooden cover that you can lower when bad weather is coming or at night, just like the brood bins for the chickens at night. Simple, and easy peazy. Presto, dry bins every morning.
I was initially thinking the same thing, but I'm leaning more towards a farm stand. If it is, in fact, a farm stand, they could incorporate some sort of bench so it could become a roadside shelter as well!
You guys were -25F we were 120F a couple of weeks ago. Some areas of the east coast of Australia have received some rain, despite this there is still 80 bushfires burning and the loss of native animals and livestock is sadly not over. On Kangaroo Island farmers lost 100,000 sheep - the fires on the island are still burning. cheers from Australia. Ps. my dog is a kelpie called Maddie, she (and I) are avid viewers. She especially likes the goats, chickens and Tanner and Pluto. Maybe you could build another polytunnel for your seedlings? - might also come in handy if you continue to increase your flocks.
One way to solve the snow in the feeder. Put an extra roof extension on hinges with locking mechanisms under the small overhang so that you can close and open the sides if its getting too windy on either side and protect further out from rain.
Goooooooood Afternoon , Tracker Al , Gina & Olivia , A mid-January thaw is normal for me. But this one has been most of the month so far. However , winter did return a couple of days ago. Went from a daytime high of 60* F down to the teens. And today went from a low of 11*F up to a high of 37*F. The weather report says that it will warm up again for the weekend. What the heck ?? I'm not complaining though . Had some strong winds though. My front door faces due west where my prevailing wind comes from. I opened the door to look outside and the wind yanked the door right out of my hand ! Bang , it hit my rocking chair ! And I had horizontal snow . Hope seems to be turning into quite the leader of the pack . lol I think that if you turn the pasture hay feeder to be end wise to your prevailing wind , you will have less snow and rain lowing in onto the hay . Remember , Spring IS coming !
Now I'm thinking some kind of covered bench. Whatever it is, it will be gorgeous as usual. I love me a good meat loaf! We are in the 20s here but still nothing more than a dusting of snow. Supposed to get to the single digits tonight. Stay warm and Blessings to all.
Maybe you could take the roofing off the goat feeder and reuse it on Gina's project. That way you could install longer piece of metal roofing on the goat feeder. You might also turn the goat feeder lengthwise into the prevailing wind which would let less snow into the feeder.
Good day Gina Different meatloaf. Make meatloaf.firm parboil fresh spinach. Squeeze spinach dry. Mix Together with grated cheese to spinach. Jelly roll it. So cheese and spinach mixture rolls with your flatten meat mixture. Use parchment paper to roll it together. Its yummy .Can top last 15 minutes with ketchup or your choice of topping.
Some shade cloth on your hay feeder should help you prevent snow in your feeder. Attach it to the roof and some pins in the ground. Leave some space for the goats to stand.
It's a Goat truck stop, fill up with water from a water barrel, get out of the weather, maybe a place to keep the mama and babies for a while while still newborn by putting a temp fence around it... etc. You did say Goat STop in the video.
Hi guys just can’t get over how much Olivia has grown she becoming a Beautiful young Lady. 🥰Love watching all your videos can’t wait to see what this project is going to be. ☺️😊
Excited to see what you are making, Gena!!! Isn’t it nice to have the workshop area during snow? Now, no waiting til the weather clears to see a creation come to life!.
Im thinking curtains on the goat hay feeder, maybe two feet long on both sides. Did this with a cow feeder, with waights in the bottom of the curtains. It helped during rain to keep the hay dry
Looks like a soup kind of dinner coming up. Live in So Cal but from Mi so I recognize the work it takes to just keep up. Enjoying the 'Gina in the Kitchen' portion of the channel. Doing a great job. Stay warm.
I came to say a cloth hanging down to the top of the hay out of reach from the edge would keep snow and most rain out as well, while not being within the reach of the goats or Kidd's
It could be a veg garden tool shed to keep the rakes, broad forks and things dry. My Wife thinks it will be a school bus stop for Olivia to stand in while waiting during rainy times. I'm not sure what it'll end up being but if you pulled it along side the goat feeder you made it would help shield the feeder from the snow.
You could make an awning out of the greenhouse polythene so you could wind it up under the hedge of roof when not needed. You could also put a small electric water heater in the barn workshop . Love your blog x
Is there anything Gina can not do. Cook, sew, take care of the family the animals and ROCK those power tools. Y’all are a great team, love all the videos. Oh talking cold 20 degrees in Marietta, GA last night, but no snow, just windy. Is the building some kind of tomato planter?
I'm thinking you need to use siding to close one end of the goat feeder and then turn that side into the prevailing wind direction. At least it would protect the majority of the time. Of course being on skids in the winter it might act as a wooden sail and slide a bit in heavy wind storms but that would save you having to move it yourself.
Garden shed is looking real good guys! It is a pleasure watching the two of you bldg things & I see Gina loads her own gun too... I appreciate the attention to detail on all the builds. On Thurs. I pushed off 8.5" of snow, ( 4 hrs. in the saddle @ 0° ) on my side of the river & on Sat. going into early Sun. I am looking at 4.5" of snow yet again... Keep up the good work... Bill on the Hill...:~)
Don't you have a prevailing wind direction? You could turn the feeder so that it is end on, and maybe even add a board to block more wind. Glad you are enjoying snow. Keep it there. Cheers from West Texas.
I think the Gina's build has something to do with "Apples', but another viewer suggested the build would be a fruit/vegetable stand for farm produce and eggs etc... and that's a good guess... It makes the most sense... YES! It's a Roadside Produce Stand!!!
Watch building snow piles too high near the outside of your fence lines. The coyotes can use the piles to jump your fences and get into your fenced areas more easily.
I am stumped on the build. I'll just have to be patient and wait see. Dinner looked so good...I love meat loaf but I have never had one made from just pork. That will sure make some tasty sandwiches. Stay warm....have a Blessed day.
hope you don't get the 8 - 10 inches we got from Friday through Sunday afternoon with neg temps plus wind chills in the neg 20's to 30's. Really made it hard for the snow plows here in South Dakota to get the roads cleared in their normal timely manner. Stay safe and warm you guys!!
Good mauhnin Lumnah family! I haven’t a clue what you are building and the suspense is killing me! Lol! It does look interesting though. Please don’t keep us guessing for too long. Everyone has great guesses. That meatloaf looked delicious Gina! I made one Friday evening. Gotta love meatloaf! Yummy! Take care, stay warm and safe!
You cold build a small pavilion to cover the hay feeder, that would also offer some shade in the summer and an outside escape from rain/snow? Everything looks great at Lumnah Acres. Loving that snow. We haven't had any snow since November in Kentucky.
almost the geographic center of the state. Hodgenville, KY. Birthplace of Abraham Lincoln. We are about an hour south of Louisville. I have some friends I teach with that go to the church I pastor that are from Michigan. They love the milder winters. Best of luck to you on your move! Any ideas where yet?
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I am so glad I don't live up there lol all that snow. I would go insane. We haven't had snow yet but I'm sure we will before winter is over. Watching the girls run was funny, I laughed out loud. I hope you and your family have a great day.
Wider roof would have done a better job keeping snow out! You could have 2feet wider fold out panels wider or hanging down. Sloping the floor or grain feeding area might keep little P from climbing in and p ing on the food!!
If you would put some curtains with penny weights in them on the girls feeder, the snow would stay out of their feed, dad. I think y'all are building a produce stand for this summer. Whatever it is is looking nice. Love the shape.
Al you should take and open up the I-bolt going at the gate going out to the chicken coop then put the end of the chain though the bolt and then close it that should keep you from having do you fish the chain through the bolt all the time , Just something for you to think about , have a good day and stay warm
Lol you already said what it was in this vlog it's a goat stop. Love watching you guys ❤️ sending my love to all of you and may God bless you and your homestead xoxoxo
You and your family are wonderful to watch as well as I Love Ginas cooking. Some one told me a long time ago to measure twice before you cut even if you measure three times before you cut less wast, less mistakes.
I agree with Lazynub and make a little wider too. We were at 20° all day and had snow flurries in my part of Tennessee. My new guess is a birthing shed for the goats.
I think the next project should be a porch/carport over the truck and car just to save some “clean the car off time”. Then add a door out to the farm view 👍🏼
As you said, a goat stop. A little place to put in the pasture where Gina can sit and play with the goats, a little bench in there to sit on. Not sure what you're going to do with the part of the platform that's not covered, maybe build something for the goats to climb on.
we didn't have any either, until friday evening. it had been 40*F and raining. Started turning cold, rain to ice, then to snow, then back to ice, getting colder by the hour. By sunday night it was -3 *F without the windchill, gusting up to 40 m.p.h. and only 18" of snow (shocked me such a small amount for as long as it snowed) with ice under and on top of the snow! And of course they didn't plow most of the roads bcuz it was Sunday, they don't like paying triple time to the road crews. So, driving was interesting. Going to the store at 12 m.p.h. behind a car that couldn't stay in his lane & no room to pass was crazy!
8 balmy degrees this morning. Not sure what a goat stand is unless it is a milking stand for two or more goats...but outside? Probably not. I'll just sit in this comfy corner over here and wait patiently ;)
Ok. I’ll take wild guess. A rabbit hutch? Just wanted to say I really enjoy the videos and I’ve learned a lot watching you folks building things. I hope it’s not going to be too long before we know what the mystery building is. Have a great day all.
I thought I was the only one who used my mixer to make my meatloaf. If you don’t try it. You don’t get all messy and the meatloaf doesn’t get over worked and tough.
Maybe you can redo the hay feeder for the boy goats to make it the same as the new one for the girls so the hay won’t fall out for the boys. Update your new hay feeder for the girls with the lower roof like others have suggested here first. Consistency makes things look nice and efficient
I was looking at the hay feeder in the boys pen. The roof looks lower over the feed area. I said I thought Gina's build was combination bus stop for Oliva and roadside produce stand, now I wonder if it might be an outhouse for the farm. 🏚
Its a moose feeder with a dance floor. I love it! Or Al's dog house with skids.. the closer to the tree line Gina puts it the more you are in trouble! Maybe its a portable greenhouse
Love seeing you guys working together :)
I love that Hope leads the herd out. She still is her tough little self.
On the new feeder for the girls, you might try some window screen curtains in the winter. Make them to roll up or take off. It will allow air and light but screen the flakes to drop outside the roof line. Just an idea.
my suggestion would be to lower the roof to the top of the feeder and then put hinges on the roof so you can lift it up to load it and once you finish loading put the roof back down over it
Lazynub good idea. Work smart and efficient
I love watching all the goats eat, in the morning. The lower roof may make it more difficult to shoot.
Is it a garden tool shed? Store away during the winter, put it out in the spring. Plus an area to stack bushel baskets?
A belated Happy Birthday to Hope. I missed Jan 11th, sorry little Arizonan. Have a happy second year!
Leslie C That is what I thought too. So Gina doesn’t have to haul her garden tools in and out each time she works in the garden. Only I think she will put pretty pots of flowers on the little side “deck.”

Reminds me of the roadside shelters we had while waiting on the school bus to arrive.
I thought maybe a herb hot house but yes it reminds me of bus stop sheds . If it is someone is going to be very lucky they had one made for them .
I was initially thinking the same thing, but I'm leaning more towards a farm stand. If it is, in fact, a farm stand, they could incorporate some sort of bench so it could become a roadside shelter as well!
Either way, its so nicely built, there better be a way to secure it to the ground, or it WILL get stolen! Word to the wise.

I'm thinking maybe a shelter for Libby to await the school bus on those really bad mornings.
that's what we think it is too
Me also
It could be a dual purpose waiting station / summer sale stand.
You said it yourself al . its a goat stop
bus stop waiting shed
We survived our storm in MN. now its cold...Fear not 30's in a few days...Just think how much closer we get to spring every passing day..

Hey Gina! Here in Australia when we make meatloaf before putting it in the oven we cover the top with tomato sauce (ketchup) it’s a game changer!
me too, here in Michigan, USA.
Is there anything Gina can not do. Cook, sew, take care of the family the animals and ROCK those power tools. Y’all are a great team, love all the videos. Oh talking cold 20 degrees in Marietta, GA last night, but no snow, just windy. Is the building some kind of tomato planter?

Tanner is going to end up jumping over the snow mountain into the goat pasture before long :>)
Or something worse.
Garden shed is looking real good guys! It is a pleasure watching the two of you bldg things & I see Gina loads her own gun too... I appreciate the attention to detail on all the builds.
On Thurs. I pushed off 8.5" of snow, ( 4 hrs. in the saddle @ 0° ) on my side of the river & on Sat. going into early Sun. I am looking at 4.5" of snow yet again... Keep up the good work...
Bill on the Hill...:~)
Hello Lumnah's I think Gina's building is a Garden tool shed with water catching system for watering the crops.
Don't you have a prevailing wind direction? You could turn the feeder so that it is end on, and maybe even add a board to block more wind. Glad you are enjoying snow. Keep it there. Cheers from West Texas.
What is going on in the woods with the trail camera's?
matching she sheds for her and for olivia complete with window boxes and front porches with rockers for their crafting of course
I think the Gina's build has something to do with "Apples', but another viewer suggested the build would be a fruit/vegetable stand for farm produce and eggs etc... and that's a good guess... It makes the most sense... YES! It's a Roadside Produce Stand!!!
I've said it before but that handheld dealt saw is a badass little machine!!!
Watch building snow piles too high near the outside of your fence lines. The coyotes can use the piles to jump your fences and get into your fenced areas more easily.
Its hilarious that you think a coyote needs anything to hop a 4 foot fence. They can leap that from a sitting position.
Portable viewing bench
I am stumped on the build. I'll just have to be patient and wait see. Dinner looked so good...I love meat loaf but I have never had one made from just pork. That will sure make some tasty sandwiches. Stay warm....have a Blessed day.
Loved seeing the goats running to the feeder!
I thought for sure it was a potting shed but not sure.
What a JOY it will be when you reach 200k Subs this year!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless! 💚 💙 💜
hope you don't get the 8 - 10 inches we got from Friday through Sunday afternoon with neg temps plus wind chills in the neg 20's to 30's. Really made it hard for the snow plows here in South Dakota to get the roads cleared in their normal timely manner. Stay safe and warm you guys!!
Mud room for all the boots and coats before you get to the house. Or bus stop for Olivia for out the front.
We used old deer stands for shelter while waiting for the bus
Good mauhnin Lumnah family! I haven’t a clue what you are building and the suspense is killing me! Lol! It does look interesting though. Please don’t keep us guessing for too long. Everyone has great guesses. That meatloaf looked delicious Gina! I made one Friday evening. Gotta love meatloaf! Yummy! Take care, stay warm and safe!

What part of Kentucky are you in, DuWayne Gibson? I plan to move to Kentucky this spring just for that reason. Had enough Michigan winters, LOL.

I have some friends I teach with that go to the church I pastor that are from Michigan. They love the milder winters. Best of luck to you on your move! Any ideas where yet?

Check out Newfoundland , St. John's . if you want to see snow !!!!

I think y'all are building a produce stand for this summer. Whatever it is is looking nice. Love the shape.
I believe it is the potting shed for the garden area.

I was thinking a potting shed for her and Olivia
yep, Al said its so she doesn't have to lug her tools in / out to the gardens.
It's a bus stop, but it needs a heater and a hot cocoa dispenser. :)
I agree with Lazynub and make a little wider too. We were at 20° all day and had snow flurries in my part of Tennessee.
My new guess is a birthing shed for the goats.
Canada too, we got a big snow dumping also... lol And last night -25C with wind chill of -30C.... Brrrrrr
Would make a good bus stop waiting shelter in the winter and a roadside produce stand in the summer.
I think it would make a good school bus hut in the winter
Watching the goats chomping down on that Christmas tree... wow. . they WILL eat just about anything. Goats are tough!
Could be a trash/recycling bin organizer; or a potting shed.
A cozy reading space Gina or a Bus stop shelter for Olivia??
The project reminds me of farm stands I see along the road when I'm travelling. Am I even close? Thanks for sharing your day with us. God Bless.
I think it's a potting hut for Gina. You could attach that top to the stove on one of the ends. Or it's a coat and shoe tree for outside.
I was grooving to your tunes, when you cut the sound to the saw sound, and in my head I sang the rest of the song.
You rock😁
Hi @27:40 I'd be careful having the snow so close and high to your fences as it will set and be easier for other critters to jump over
My guess is a gardening/potting shed. The slanted wall side will allow for hanging baskets.
I think the next project should be a porch/carport over the truck and car just to save some “clean the car off time”. Then add a door out to the farm view 👍🏼
Al! You keep playing that song “The More You Love The More You Live”. Now I’m tapping my toe and nodding my head keeping the beat.
In Australia nsw we are getting storm ⛈ but love watching your channel because l love snow ❄️ ⛄️
As you said, a goat stop. A little place to put in the pasture where Gina can sit and play with the goats, a little bench in there to sit on. Not sure what you're going to do with the part of the platform that's not covered, maybe build something for the goats to climb on.
No snow at all this winter in southern Sweden. Like it 😊
we didn't have any either, until friday evening. it had been 40*F and raining. Started turning cold, rain to ice, then to snow, then back to ice, getting colder by the hour. By sunday night it was -3 *F without the windchill, gusting up to 40 m.p.h. and only 18" of snow (shocked me such a small amount for as long as it snowed) with ice under and on top of the snow!
And of course they didn't plow most of the roads bcuz it was Sunday, they don't like paying triple time to the road crews.
So, driving was interesting. Going to the store at 12 m.p.h. behind a car that couldn't stay in his lane & no room to pass was crazy!
8 balmy degrees this morning. Not sure what a goat stand is unless it is a milking stand for two or more goats...but outside? Probably not. I'll just sit in this comfy corner over here and wait patiently ;)
I think its a watering trough for the goats, the un-roofed part is for the rain catch barrel.
Ok. I’ll take wild guess. A rabbit hutch? Just wanted to say I really enjoy the videos and I’ve learned a lot watching you folks building things. I hope it’s not going to be too long before we know what the mystery building is. Have a great day all.
I’m voting for a garden shed for the girls!
I thought I was the only one who used my mixer to make my meatloaf. If you don’t try it. You don’t get all messy and the meatloaf doesn’t get over worked and tough.
Y'all get sooooo much snow‼️ It's crazy.
A nice LED light bar would be nice for the tractor.
I’m thinking it might be a bus shelter for Olivia to use. A porch swing would be nice once you build a deck.
That was a good throw of the chicken feed that Olivia did today; good job Livy!
You guys are an awesome team!
Hang a tarp off the corners and that should illuminate some of the snow getting in there
Olivia gives Mom a thumb's up for the dinner at 28:53. I like it.
Maybe you can redo the hay feeder for the boy goats to make it the same as the new one for the girls so the hay won’t fall out for the boys. Update your new hay feeder for the girls with the lower roof like others have suggested here first. Consistency makes things look nice and efficient
It's a very large bird house? Hugs and Prayers ya'll
I think it's a bus stop shelter. If it is make sure you make something to hold an umbrella holder in it.
My other guess would be a club house
Yep, you difinitely need a garage built for that type of temperatures for your vehicles up on the side of house and have a nice walkway to it.
I was looking at the hay feeder in the boys pen. The roof looks lower over the feed area. I said I thought Gina's build was combination bus stop for Oliva and roadside produce stand, now I wonder if it might be an outhouse for the farm. 🏚
Its a moose feeder with a dance floor. I love it! Or Al's dog house with skids.. the closer to the tree line Gina puts it the more you are in trouble! Maybe its a portable greenhouse
Look forward to your video every morning. 16 inches of snow yesterday, 4 degrees F this morning. South of Buffalo.
