This makes sense to my poor twisted mucked up sense of what’s good bad or right and wrong, I’m so fed up with feeling guilty at what I may or may not eat, now I think the over whelming feeling will be gratefulness and still making sure I get the meat from a well raised and properly run farm. I really didn’t know that growing more and more vegetables was hurting the Earth. When I think of how would we survive through a particularly bad winter and summer, with out hot houses and manure, it all does make sense doesn’t it.
@@1958pobs the media leads us to impossible place of jut breathing hurts the planet one could deduce there's too many people and that's bad for the planet. Even all food is bad for you.just being alive makes you guilty of helping to ruin the earth.
.
@@1958pobs I guess I can see your pooruck.i have my own mucked up views. Apparently all food is bad . Except avacodo and soy beans per theedia.
The cinematography was beautiful. The tree climb was also very impressive.
Mathias I was hoping you didn't get splinters in your feet while you climbed that tree barefoot.
Ivar is becoming quite the little man. Love how he loves to help his Mom and Dad. It's always a special treat when one of your videos pops up. Thank you so much for sharing your lives with us.
Matias, I have said it before, but your skills with the drone are just UNBELIEVABLE!! It truly takes me into another world watching. Tova, you are such a strong woman and beautiful mother, such an inspiration!! Thank you very much for that!! Much love to you all!!💜
You took the words out of my mouth!
Little Ivar really loves his blueberries. Matias, that was quite the rescue of the drone. Another wonderful video and I hope the weather holds warm for you to get all of your chores done.
All of your videos could easily be part of something like your own Netflix documentary one day, I think, there is so much quality and beauty in every single piece. Could you please keep us posted with the German TV's footage when you hear of any release of it? All the best, Sebastian
If you're still watching our videos next fall I guess we will know what became of the german footage :)
@@Talasbuan I'll be here for sure. :)
Yes, I'd also be interested! Greetz from Germany :)
Rams running rampant, that's funny 😄 your son is adorable 😍
I can not believe you climbed all the way up that tree so high...and BARE FOOTED!!! That was VERY impressive!! Well, not as impressive as your wife giving birth at home....but still pretty awesome!!! Loving you all from Tennessee!!
Bare feet definitely has more grip than plastic soles shoes.
Fun to see someone else also crashing their drone 😉 Lovely video as always, so calming, and I really like the music choices!
Thanks Kalle! Haha! With this type of flying mashine, at least half of the flights end up in crashes 😁
/Mathias
When I heard you singing and calling for your sheep’s, I realized, I was missing the wonderful and special woman’s song in the start off your programs for a long time. Maybe you could make a start with your own singing and calling your sheep’s?
I really enjoy to follow your family, specially little Ivar ❤️❤️❤️ love from Denmark ❤️
,
Yes..super idea..& we friends too could learn & jointly raise our voices so we hear one another from continent- continent. All 3 of you look to be very happy..good glow, laughing & glowing. I especially enjoyed & related to the down hill walk kicking the tree shells..so much the kind of simple little moment we may always hold close to our tender place. Hey, did you find your drone cam not screw-up much ? Nice work scooting like a racvoo up that tree & good jump off too ! You are a fine athlete ! Sending my love from Coastel Cali-Fornica ! Canyon
Another amazing video 💯 📸
It's still 100°f in my area, Arkansas USA.
We're grilling hamburgers on the BBQ right now. Yummy 😋
Much 💕
The music combined with your wonderful photography and video is almost ancient in some way. I feel like I'm being taken to the land of the elves. I enjoy every minute..thank you both for your world you open up to us. ❤️
The start of your day waking up with an aerial view capturing a frosty beautiful sunrise through the trees, through the morning mist, like a bird we fly. So very beautiful. Ivar will miss the summer. He's growing before our eyes, discovering, exploring, helping Mom. I really look forward to your videos, seeing the progress you made on your homestead, seeing how you graze your sheep. Now, I can say I know what it's like to get hung up in a tree & come tumbling down. Awesome. Just loved this video.
These videos are the perfect balance-gorgeous cinematography, beautiful glimpses at family/daily life. There’s no pretense. Perfect.
Your precious boy brings a smile to my face..thank you for sharing him with us all! Reminds me of my darlings..so love seeing him grow and develop in the beautiful environment you’re creating for him 🌷🌹🌼
Ivar is growing so fast and now enjoys the gardens and farm animals with his parents. I was so surprised when Matias climbed the tree without hesitation to get the drone down from the tree.
I think Ivar should teach me Swedish. I understood when he said "Daar" (there) and "Ver" (far) and Nanna (Baby talk in Afrikaans for food 😁) ... I also understood when you told him the tomatoes are not done yet. Quite proud of myself that my Swedish is on par with a real Swede 😜 (albeit a 1year old)
Oh Ivar youre so adorable 😚😚😚
Your photography, especially of nature and of Ivar, is a joy to watch!
The music is beautiful, transquil, peaceful and Serene.
Maybe a dug in greenhouse is something for you, dig it into the hill, and the temperature will be more constant. Have seen something like that for people who have an equally short growing season.
As always the video is a beauty.
Jamaica 🇯🇲 here awesome 😎 seeing you and your family sure hope that your food will be protected mr handsome sure is growing learning to be a good helper too
P
As always thank you for the experience, I’ve only ever seen tree surgeons climb trees like that, but they have all sorts of gear, not bare footed and as quick as a squirrel 🐿 that was such a great perspective.
The ram story was fun, renegade rams 🤣 such naughty boys.
The flights through woods are breath taking, such a joy to watch, along with you little who is adorable.
A great video as always! Glad the drone fell out of the tree and not you Matias! Ivar is adorable. Can't believe he is growing so fast! Wild sheep?😂 God bless you all! 🇺🇸
Tova, your strength absolutely astounds me. You also have such patience, waiting so long to live in a true home. I don’t know if I could do the same. Ivar is such a cutie and I love to see how he grows. Your videos are such a treat and I do so enjoy seeing them.Matias, didn’t mean to leave you out. I love your drone footage. The scenery is beautiful
You are a primo nature photographer. Your eye for subtle detail is I believe rare.
I can’t believe you just climbed that tree in your bare feet!! 🤣🤣
BEAUTIFUL FILMOGRAPHY Matthias! BEAUTIFUL Life! Wonderful Mother = Tova! A N D most handsome little Ivar! Every place on this earth is suffering from stupidity and ignorance. We count our blessings if we still have our sanity in life = Simplicity of Life and RESPECT for one another. Sad to say...this is rare. Isn't it inspiring to watch the way Ivar lives his life? He trusts, he expects and is well taken care of. In the most famous of books, it says that we are to 'become as little children.' They have the secret to a better tomorrow. Thank you for sharing...God Bless you n' yours!
Some day you call tell Ivar that his pure joy and smile has been spreading around the world, touching so many and putting a smile on other's faces as well.
That start was amazing and so beautiful. I Just love Autumn/Fall. I love to walk my dogs in the woods early the smell of Mother earth makes my heart and soul Happy. Your home is just lovely, even if it's hard at times. Thank you for sharing such beauty with us.
When you post new videos I get so excited to watch them - it's like having "desert" for the senses!
It makes me feel I'm right there with you at your homestead... gives me a sense of tranquility and peace.
Many years ago I made my only international trip to Stockholm and Amal, Sweden from here in the USA. It was the most beautiful adventure in my lifetime. I cried when I had to leave. Your country has such a purity of nature!
Ivar is such a BEAUTIFUL CHILD!! I wish he were one of my grand-children 🥰
May GOD bless your precious family and peaceful homestead...
Thank you for always making me smile while watching your lives!
Do you really know how blessed you are? You have the life some just dream of. Money isnt everything. Love of God,freedom and family are the treasures my heart seeks. Your family is wealthy beyond measure. God bless and keep you.
Just when the new England forest around our house is threatening to break out in violent shades of red and orange, and suddenly the pegs by the door have more jackets. It's such a melancholy, nostalgic time of year: right before everything changes again.
I do hope you get to enjoy some ripe tomatoes this year. Thank you for this video. You are a beautiful family.
Autumn has hit Northumberland too been a cold year ✌🏻root veg love frosts
Also if the tomatoes get too late, just pull them and put them on the windowsill in the sun... or make green tomato chutney that’s my plan
I'm originally from the north of Scotland, so know the difficulties of growing food crops in a chancy climate. If you know frost is coming, one emergency measure (and inexpensive) is to cover your outdoor crops with bedsheets. Plastic is even better of course but old white or pale bedsheets keep frost off the plants (the trick is to not let them touch the plants though so use plastic piping or stout branches to keep them off) and they still let light and water through. I did this in May this year when we had hard frosts and snow.
We're retired, but next spring we will be selling our property here and relocating to Sweden. So your lovely videos are very valuable for us to watch. Thank you for making them and showing reality, the good and the "bad" (which isn't really). :)
We pay a lot of attention to Scotland because we don't get very warm in summer either- watermelons are impossible without a poly tunnel to trap the heat.
Why Sweden? it is so cold there or did you go in the south? We have our self-catering garden in Germany and i think its even could here. Without greenhouse you can`t earn so much you need to have for whole Year. This year we had no Frost only from June to July- thats not enough time for the most plants. Greatings from Germany!- From Gardener to Gardener :-)
From other homesteaders in Alaska, I've seen that they ensure planting below the frost line when they make greenhouses, using logs to cover the walls. then having the beds raised - some use reflective tin so that the sunshine bounces off each other. Many cover the greenhouse either with a polly tunnel, or with reclaimed old windows. Because the greenhouse is dug way below the frost line, the earth's warmth adds to the overall warmth of the greenhouse. Also an old plastic barrel painted black filled with water and sealed is used to absorb the heat of the sun then release during the night. If added warmth is needed, a Finnish Candle can be used to heat the area.
The tree climb was very impressive when rescuing your drone. Seems like weather all over the world is changing, we have not had such a good hot summer this year, quiet a lot of rain here in the UK. Your new cabin and other structures on your property are coming on nicely. Ivor is growing up so quickly. Till the next video. By the way your cinematography is fantastic.
Every season brings its own set off challenges/ frustrations but we have to learn how to plan for such occasions and over time we accrue a library of knowledge.Is there a way of getting tomatoes going earlier so that when they are transplanted out they have a head start. If conditions are wet do I have drier paddocks where I can put my stock. so on and so forth.I know from your vlogs you both have had frustration with the lack of time to do work and finish projects.
Ivar is a beautiful boy but he takes up a lot of your time, it will improve over time................spontaneity goes out the window when we have children.
With regard to the major challenge of pouring a concrete roof on the cheese store you will need ALOT of form work fully supported, concrete is 'very heavy' and the gravity principle does apply. You will need reinforcing mesh set in the middle of the concrete and this mesh needs to be tied into the walls.When you get to pouring the roof it would be good to have two cement mixers going ............ the pour should be continuous.I wish you well.
Changing the subject, regen ag has a lot of benefits and is practiced here in Austra;lia but not on a broad scale. Rotational grazing, cell grazing is more common and has benefits too. With any of these systems they need to be tuned to your specific region/area/location, for me here if conditions a dry I will need to adjust the stocking rate, or I have to feed hay or silage or crop to get them through the dry period. The biggest challenge comes when we have breeding animals, animals that are lactating require a lot of maintenance. quite often people run dry stock as they can often do well in tough conditions....It's all good fun keeps us on our toes.
As always stay safe. look forward to episode 88
Fantastic filming and the music was just perfect. Ivar is lovely,💓 as always. The falling of the drone was funny, but it made your video more unique. I am sorry about the early frost. Where I live is still hot ..30 to 40 degree in north America. Enjoyed watching your video very much, thank you.
I love watching your videos . Ivar is just so adorable 🥰
Your tree climbing abilties are top notch...wink, wink. You are so blessed to have such a happy, content little guy. That is a testament to how and what you 2 are doing to raise him. That is what I'm most impressed by, as a mama, grandma in this video. Rouge sheep...that's too funny. They wanted to free range it. Congratulations on all your success. As a pateron from the way beginning, I'm so happy for you!
"Dont try that tree climb at home" 😁 I am sure Mathias used a few swear words
A beautiful video! I look forward to seeing you all every month and thank you for sharing your lives with us
Your son is adorable! What a childhood - he loves it, you can so see it in his eyes, how he loves nature and his surroundings. This is plain awesome :-)
You have a real cute helper !
Wow, inspirational as always guys. Off-grid living is so desirable for us, you guys make it seem so accessible. I'd love to see how that TV show ended up!
Beautifully done! All of it! So wonderful to see especially when you live in Arizona!
Hope your food will be protected. Thank you for sharing your story.
Such beautiful filming, the sunrise was stunning!
Ivar is so happy. It is such a pleasure to see him explore freely. The sheep on the run is a great story.
Oh you two look a lot better rested … the first year of a new baby is the hardest, coupled with your chosen lifestyle I know how hard it has been for you …
Oh my I am so happy to see Ivar growing … I feel like his nannie viewer 😀
The farm is looking well , I cannot believe we are into another season … good luck in your winter preparations
🙏☘️😘
that feeling when you live in thousand kilometers away but you saw this family from the start (and the birth of little Ivar) and keep seeing them growing more than your own people!!!
Wow, its soooo beautiful at the beginning😍😍😍😍 Thank you so much for this beauty👍🙌
P.S. I'm not ready for autumn yet either. August was like September and September is gonna be like August here in Germany. June was hot as July and July was like June. I don't know whats going on this year🤷♀️
Ivar is the most gorgeous kid ever! Beautifully filmed as always. Thank you!
Beautiful beautiful
I so love what you share ❤
Children certainly are strange little creatures. The way they make funny little noises and generally carry on in such an erratic manor...... Bless them !!
Climbing to that tree to get the drone was pretty impressive with a barefoot!
Loving the sheep photobomb at 11:05!
Wow, the colors are beautiful of fall there. I didn't realize that fall came so early there. We here in Missouri are still hot. Today will be 1st day of September. We do not have frost yet. Your videos are so beautiful and that boy is so sweet! Would love to squeeze him tight. He's so loveable. I'm guessing your summer is over. And no red tomatoes....wow your time frame for growing must be very short. Thank you for video. Take care of that boy.
Thank You again for a beautiful video Evar is changing looks more grown up And the Drone Magnificent Look for ward to your next video Blessings
Hello from Portland, Oregon! Love your projects. We enjoy watching and listening to your presentations! Excellent music and video... You are a gifted videographer! Thank you for all the effort. Jim and Cheryl
that little boy is just to cute it is so fun to see him walking.
Always enchanting entrance😚😚😚
Moi! Kiitos videosta! So sorry for the early frost! Your garden is in the north-east slope, ins't it? You might concider getting some raised beds up the hill, next to the New house. I'd love to Come and help🙂
In spite of the “crash” and the T.V. Crew….this by far was your most beautiful video. The scenery and content was so mesmerizing and amazing!
It would be nice if you could show us the German documentary. Great video. Thank you.
When you’re forming the roof of your cellar, remember the weight of the concrete. I’ve seen professional engineers mess that up. You can do it, it’s very heavy.
I liked the mix of this video.
Thanks! Yes, there's going to be a lot of support under the form :)
Like Colin Furze his latest video with his underground tunnel. 😀
Watching you little boy growing is amazing he’s Wonderful
I miss your silent building videos. Enjoy the warm autumn so you can harvest as much as you can. I'd send you my tomatoes if you were any closer. 😊
Absolutely beautiful! Greetings from Manitoba, Canada. 🙂. Best of luck with your garden.
Stunning, just stunning skills you both have...a most Perfect life 💕 tough, rewarding, real, spiritually fulfilling, astounding. Slow hard work, I feel the burn in your muscles, and the splendor of all you take detail notice of around you. I cannot express adequately how deeply your sharing has touched my mind...I lose myself for hours at a time... definitely become a Patreon person....I hope you are all fortunate enough to live out your lives as you are today....
Thank you so much for your kind words! ♡
children are our future. your child is beautiful. God bless you both.
Lovely as ever! Autumn is rolling in in the UK. Summer has been short this year. Blackberries were out first week in August and it has become "Monsoon" month. It's definitely getting cooler. But I love September, I find the summer very tiring.
You have the cutest little boy, I have to admit i watch your videos now just to see him grow 😊
Sure like watching your videos!
I'm sure y'all have thought of this, but don't forget the "rebar" (steel reinforcement) to go within the concrete pour for the roof for the cellar.
After many years of intense research and 1000's of interviews...I have determined that Ivar...is the cutest little bug in the rug. Such a sweet and calm joy emanating from his being. And Mom and Dad looking very handsome these days!! I am almost 3 yrs watching now. Your films are some of the best photography and editing I have ever seen. The music is always spot on. An intense dreamscape.
The cinematography is very relaxing
You climbed that nasty looking tree in your bare feet?? You must have soles of steel! Sorry you had such an early frost but the sheep must be happy for the cooler weather. Great progress on your cheese cellar.
Barefoot is the best way to climb trees. The native tribes dont use shoes either. Just our civilized perspective point of view
Your son is sooo cute! My boy is about the same age. Also first child. We live in the mountains and i wonder if i can ask u, what are your ideas for friends for your son as he gets bigger? How do you find other kids for him to grow with?
I do hope you will not get more frost until the tomatoes are ripe. I have had an abundance of tomtoes this year and have loved every bite! We have had it very hot this summer, NE Tennesse USA. I am looking forward to fall, but not winter. Ivar is such a lovely child, I can't get enough of watching him. Your drone footage is amazing, glad you didn't fall out of the tree when retrieving it.
Excellent video! Thanks so much. Ivar in the berry patch was just adorable. The stick incident at the end reminded me of my old Granny. She would shout at us It is all fun and games until someone pokes their eye out. It made me smile to remember my childhood.
Beautiful place to live in.
Such a lovely family. Thank you.
Rikki Biermann, Pretoria, South Africa 🇿🇦
Thank you so much for the wonderful video, I look so very forward to them.
Very nice video .... Ivar is buzzing around like a big bee checking everything out. He is growing like a weed now, and is a riot to watch! Take care Mathias, Tova & the little whirlwind Ivar.
That precious boy! I'm not eating berries, look over there, up there! Trying to distract your attention to some place else. Adorable!
it is so adorable to watch that your baby is picking and eating berries, so cute.......
Ivar is sooooo adorable! He makes me smile! Thank you! Love the video! The sheep were interesting following you guys. Congratulations on getting them back!
Beautiful, as usual!
Very beautiful as usual! Well done as always!
Amazing cinima photos.! Beautifully 🌴🌷. Thank you for sharing a day in your live with us. Love your videos.🙋🏻♀️🙏🏻
I live in northern Alberta we got a light touch of frost 2 days ago
Got a garden and green house like you yes something it's frustrating one night frost at the end of August then nothing till October so I got plastic sheets to cover the crops save it all again this time now we finally got some decent rain was dry all summer very little hay and the canola is about 30%less
Oh well that part of the game it as happens before it will happen again no worries mate it will all come together you're guys are doing good keep at it take care be safe
