I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas in my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much MORE!
At Lumnah Acres we hope our experiences can help guide you to find YOUR BETTER WAY! Please join us in sharing our journey with you, let us be a guide to Modern Homesteading, Self-Sufficiency, and FREEDOM for you!

Yes! Tour of the barn supplier! That would be so interesting!
Gina Cota that would be interesting to watch. Interested in learning all the advice about choosing the correct barn/installation for circumstances that benefit the homesteader. Mr. Al is a gifted builder but not all steaders are.
Yes a factory tour would be great .
Gina Cota that a lot of likes Gina so I’d say yes
I really love how you film RUclips for us without complaining about the hard work involved .Like all your work you just get it done.Thx for your time and sharing I learn so much from you
A factory tour of would be awesome!
In the first 10 seconds of your video find the yellow tie down at the right rear of the truck's bed. Just to the side of it you can see two slots in the bed liner. There are also slots at the front of the bed. These slots are so you can run a partition board from side to side. The top slots are for 2 x 4s to run flat from side to side of the bed. The top of these 2 x 4s will be at the same height as the fender wells. By sheeting the 2 x 4s you can build a false floor. You can also hide things under it. The partitions are helpful too. The rear one keeps stuff between the partition and the tailgate. Stuff like bags of planters mix, cement, loose gravel, old school plastic gas cans (which I collect too) and even propane bottles. If you use a 2 x 6 or 8 use a 3/4" radius on the top edge. Hand slots can be added too. If the tops of the slots are 1-1/2" down from the top then they can be routed the same as the top giving a full 1-1/2 round handle. The plastic liner flexes a bit so I made my board 1/2" longer. I added a chamfered corner to the bottom corners. They don't need to be that big just enough so the board won't poke through the liner.
Good Morning, Taking a tour of the barn factory would be awesome!! Wishing your family a good day, God Bless!
Yes to the Barn Tour please. I love watching your videos, they start my day off right. Thanks.
Lol we were also thrilled about the melting !! You know it was a long winter when your siked about mud season..
*with the tree cracking quite a bit this year, it tells me that perhaps the freezing is higher up in the tree and will take longer to thaw inside the tree before releasing the sap*
When I can not find the matching screws. I spray paint them myself.
Also I watched some of your maple syrup videos from last year. I am using some of your techniques for my own maple syrup run. Thanks.
Morning Al, I'm surprised you haven't mounted an outside plug by the door so you can keep it closed and warm inside. I can hear my father now, shut that door I'm not heating the whole neighborhood. lol
Country Life I have to agree! Can’t recall how many times I’ve thought the same thing! 😁🔌
As Al calls it The Pastured Pig Mobile. 😃
Or when Al's in trouble..
Gina sends Al out to his Mobile Dog House. 🙉
The screws should be on the high corrugations not the low, thats why the sheets are designed that way, water runs down the low corrugations, hope your pigs don't mind a leaky roof
taring will do
The PPM is looking awesome! Its coming alive! Yes it would be cool to see how they get the barns shipped out :)
Bless you Al and everyone have a great Week !
If you didn't already have the barn I would suggest that a carport would be a good addition next
Yeah, could work on projects with covered protection too! Multi functional~
Absolutely tour us through the barn manufacturer!! That would be cool
I had a PPM back in the late 70's down in Henniker New Hampshire. My PPM was only for open weather, not snow covered ground. My pigs spent the winter under the barn working on the compost that was fed down to them from above. My PPM was a 250-gallon tank for water and three trash cans for grain on a flatbed trailer. The pigs nested under the trailer for shade. The nipple waterer usually created a small mud bath for them. I could usually put the sows out with my PPM soon after they pigged out. The little ones would roam about some. The sows stayed in with a single hot wire. As the little ones got bigger, I found I could keep them in as well with a single hot wire. I had a hot wire running around the property boundaries. I would run my hot wire off that. I had about six acres of sugar bush. The pigs would start working their way across the sugar bush soon after the sap season ended. I remember well waiting for the sap to run. The old man I learned to farm from, Archie Morse, born in 1896, always said we had to be ready to tap out by February 2nd, half your grain, and half your hay by Groundhog Day. Then we would wait for the temperature to come up. We would try to tap out as soon as we had a small run. One year we did our best sap while it was still before March. April 15th is income tax day, set right there because that was the end of sap season, so says the federal government.
Thumbs up on the factory tour.
I enjoyed seeing the Littleton Post Office and the DD in Littleton as you went to the vet.
Factory tour would be awesome! Amazing how much your daughter looks like Gina! Wonderful family!
I vote yes for the barn factory tour. The delivery was awesome.
Yes to barn buiders tour, along with your plans, the construction, it's all enjoyable to join y'all on your journey. And a great opportunity to learn new to us things.
Education is a lifelong pursuit for some of us curious types.
I love watching Figaro, Tanner & Pluto. Nice to see the ice melting at last. The PPM is looking really good 😊💞
I'd love to see a tour of the barn builders factory! That would be very interesting. Tanner takes it like a champ! Can't wait for the warm weather to take over.
Yes please to the barn tour. Really enjoyed learning about making a roof, thanks Al. 🇬🇧
Ok .1. Where was my morning greeting? 2. PPM looking sweet. 3. Heck yes tour where the barn kit was made!!
Yes I would like to see where the barns are made. Thanks again for all of the great RUclips content.
Good morning Al. Yes, I'd like a video tour of the barn kit manufacturer.
Don't worry, the sap will flow when it is time for it to flow.
Would love to see the place your barn came from and the manufacturing process. Glad to see your thaw is starting. You have had a long tough winter.
If I had a setup like yours I would be one happy man! !!
Amen to that
Make it happen! It certainly wasn't just handed to Al. =0)
Still needs his barn work shop!! I’ll be thrilled when he’s got that. Al is a resilient ole yankee but he’s earned working in a nice warm workshop!!
Yes, I also would really like to see the building of the barn.
Factory tour sounds interesting ! Happy to notice you, using a different sound track. It was time to expand your repertoire .
. Love the vids with Wife and Olivia . Gotta say, Figaro is my favorite animal/pet of yours. He's independent, with personality.
A tour would be awesome I cant wait till all the new animals are there so exciting I hope u guys have a blessed day love ur videos as always
The “PPM” is getting pretty perfectly made. Awesome work👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yes! Absolutely, tour of the manufacturing plant for the barn if the opportunity presents itself. Did you reveal the manufacturer and I missed it?
No we haven’t yet
Loved going back and seeing the build on the PPM
Your build is coming out awesome one thing I would suggest was putting some green slime in the tires to keep them from leaking if not you're probably going to be chasing your building with an air hose all the time
The barn factory tour would be cool to see. We got a downpour here Friday, and the almost 60' 90% ice melted, COME ON SPRING!
Yes, I would love to go on the tour of the barn factory. And thank you!
Well Al, I think winter's back here has broke, this part of the country we've gotten a foot of snow for April's fools day in past. I am thankful for the frost thawing down enough to let water that was setting on the top is draining away. ,Pond still out of it's banks and ice off and no floating fish from winter kill. Next week will start to get equipment and lawn tractors ready for warm weather. Change winter oil out of the Farmall. Going to put a new light on the back of my Mom's so everyone can see better at night this summer. Helped a friend get sand bags ready for the forecasted flooding on the Mississippi. Hope you and yours are doing well.
Yes, I would love the barn-maker tour.
My husband found you and sent me a link and We have been hooked ever since on watching your videos. As soon as one of us see you have posted a new video we send the other a link. We are at the beginning stages of setting up a homestead ourselves and my husband going into retirement. I just wanted to say thank you for filming in detail how you built each building. It has helped and assisted me tremendously to know how to build my own. Thanks again and be blessed!
P.s.- my wonderful hubby bought me one of the Insta pot's after watching your videos. Just got it so have not used it yet.
good day to you Al, Gina & Olivia !! thanks for sharing another awesome update and adventures on & off the homestead !! 👨🌾🎥👍✝
I would enjoy the barn tour. It's always interesting to see how things are made. Wow, what an egg hall you got today. Tanner is really growing and looking fine. I really like the white roof. Since it gets into the hundreds here, it would be a great idea for chicken coops where I live.
My vote is yes to the barn supplier and how it is made and put together for delivery, I love the videos of How it is Made.
Good morning, I Love to watch your videos, because I can see everyday the goats and chickens and then the how the trailer comes together,and then your family time food for the day that you're eating,
But what I am most waiting for is when willow will have her babies! Have a great day and God bless you!
Yes, please. Would love to see a barn factory tour!
Would love a tour of the barn facilities. Always love to see how things are made.
I love when you show your town.
Barn tour would be awesome!!
Have a great week!!
A lot of signs of spring in the air!!
Yes, AL. A tour would be really nice. I like seeing how things are made. :)
I agree, let's see a tour of the barn manufacturer.
A tour sounds like a fun idea, might also get some good info about putting it together. Hope the sap starts flowing soon!
We got our first time , baby chicks and ducklings Omgoosh they keep me busy. Thank you guys so much I'm learning so much from you Al .
Happy to see the mud😍. DEFINITELY a tour! That would be very interesting ❤️
Bless you Lumnah family!!!
Yes, field trip. Thank you.
Love your New England stone walls haven't seen him for years
I’d love a tour of the model barn. I really like your portable piggery. Even tho mom is in the hospital I’m still planning my garden. God bless you and your family. ❤️✝️
Time to worm the chickens, My vet said that when they start laying dirty eggs it could be worms and it proved to be so with our chickens. Loved the music on video and as always enjoyed everything.
Yes please a tour would be very interesting.... Thanks Al 👍
Yes! A tour please. Always love to see how things are made. Thanks! ATB : )
Think about picking up two or three plastic milk crates . . . they are perfect for holding propane bottles, because it keeps them upright.
Figaro is going to love that roof to stretch out on in the early mornings and late evenings. White will keep things cool. Pigs don't sweat so they would overheat easily. Don't want to be baking your pork too early! Haha. Tanner is getting so big.
It would be cool to see how your barn was made.
Yes! Tour of the barn supplier! Sounds good!
The barn factory tour is a great idea.
I'm guessing that the reason that the sap isn't flowing is that there is still a thick layer of snow and ice insulating the ground from the warmth. You had a long, cold winter that probably drove the frost line deeper than usual. I don't know what the freezing point is for sap, but its mostly water so it should be close to 32°F. (Even if the concentration of sugar being higher raised the melting point, it would make the sap more viscous and slower-flowing.) The air may be warm, but the ground (along with the roots in it) is still frozen.
On the other hand, once it does start flowing, I think your ground is going to be saturated for a while. Maybe you'll end up with more sap than otherwise. [Fingers crossed.]
Yes, factory tour. Sounds awesome
Thanks for doing great vlogs I really appreciate watching them everyday in the morning on my way to work
You may need to re-tap your holes if they haven't run in a while. Just spray the bit with rubbing alcohol and the inside of the hole, and drill just a little bit deeper.
Yes, yes ,yes! Do a tour of the barn factory Al
I love the music choices and I can't wait for spring to hit for you guys. I hope this year isn't so rainy so you can get the pastures all worked on and more projects done. :D
Oh yeah, I would like to see that factory. It would be cool!
Soup is always better the second day, and Tanner is getting big, I guessed 10 lbs too thanks for sharing and Have a great day
favorite time of year for Maple season! Nice to hear some new music too.
Yes a tour where they build your barn will be nice and interested to see in RUclips
Yes would enjoy seeing the barn tour
Yeah that would be really cool to see a tour of the barn kit
Aye Aye on the tour. Love seeing how things are made !!! Stoney Ridge did a tour of a wire fence company in England awhile back and it was interesting to say the least.
I was watching your videos from this time last year March 16th to be exact on maple syrup. You were the one that inspired me to get stuff for this year maple syrup, Thanks! 👍🏽 Tho still pretty cold got two trees tapped and each bucket within a few hrs was 1/4 full, EXCITING! Now I'm getting my pint jars ready. Thanks again Al for awesome vids and encouragement. Blessings 💜🌺🤗
Congrats!
Yes to the factory tour, that would be interesting.
Oh I like that green hat on you, it shows off the color of your eyes really well. Very nice.
The tour would be interesting to see. My hubby has been watching your videos with me and I'm sure he would enjoy it too.
Yes I’d enjoy a tour of the barn manufacturer !
I always wanted a barn kit/carriage house that could be turned into house. i think both structures are pretty and different.
The PPM is looking awesome Al.A tour of the barn manufacturer would be interesting.
Yes a tour seems fun.
I thought that type of roofing the screws go on the ridge part, not in the grooves? This way the water runs off?
ok @@wilburfinnigan2142
@@wilburfinnigan2142 Is this process unique for this fiberglass? We installed galvanized corrugated roofing, using nails. All nailing was done on the ridges.
I want to see the layout yard! I used to watch them pre-fab oil rigs. They build the rig at the layout yard, take it completely apart and ship it by truck to the drilling site.
Yes please, I would love to go on a saw mill tour... 👍😎
Good morning! A tour of the barn building shop would be cool.
Looking forward to the tour. Looks like you're having a heat wave. Seriously the equinox is less than a week away. Seeing lots of butterflies lately. Thanks for sharing.
Al on the handle for the PPM why don't you weld either a "T" piece or a hitch that will allow you to connect it to all your farm machinery. eg Kubota and such.
I love the music in the beginning of the video!
PPM is looking great, Yes I hate the stickers too. There on everything. I learned something new today about chickens. I thought it was because the snow was cold on their feet. Al, I think it would be cool to see a tour of the barn supplier. Blessings to your family.
That would be really awesome to see a tour of where the barn came from👍🏼
The maples down here in the southern Blue Ridge started flowing in late January but we had a mild winter they usually start mid Feb.
Yes I would like to see where they built your barn.
A field trip to the barn place! YES please!
Yes! The tour sounds fun!.
Yes, Please I would love to see a tour of the supplier. Your PPM is looking amazing. You did such a good job on it. Those will be some happy pigs. I love watching what your making for dinner. You are quite cook and always looks so yummy. Looking forward to your videos always.
A tour of the barn factory would be great let's go!
Looking good. A tour of the barn shop would be great
Yes on the factory tour.
Yes AL a barn tour would be great
