This must be like a dream life for a kid, out in the woods on your own land with pops, exploring and doing projects together. They all seem so sweet and well-behaved, too. You seem like a great dad.
you would be amazed how much brush those cattle with eat and knock down on those hillsides, they csn climb some steep slopes, you wasteing lots of feed
You have 5 kids, who will all eventually need their own homes. They may not all want to stay on the farm, but you may find several of your home sites may end up getting used!😊
Justin as a daughter thank you so much for allowing your daughter to help you and the boys. My dad only let us help with things when no other men could come by. My sister always wanted to help Daddy outside; she was too little but could have grown into things. Also the fact that you strap Mr Brown to you and take home everywhere, just warms my heart. Hugs to you Rebecca and all the rest of the family ❤
"everybody's got an obstacle of some sort. it's about overcoming those. if the reward was easy, it wouldn't be a reward. it'd be a gift. and many times, something that we earn is more special and meaningful than something we're given. *this* has to be fought for." love this quote and the series, you're all an inspiration.
I have SO enjoyed following along these 100 days, even when there was a lot of the same. Seeing the excitement and joy and RELATIONSHIPS throughout the process, even the mundane, is super encouraging. Watching your kids really gives me hope in a culture that often feels so oppositional to traditional ideas. Keep up the great work Rhodes family... and enjoy that vacation!
Your kids are amazing! Jonah has a brilliant mind for farming, and after Jonah got hurt Josiah stepped up to the task! Lily is an amazing girl! Milking cows early on and taking care of chickens and sheep is so impressive. Mr Brown and his shoe issues makes me smile everyday. Henry has been on your back before he could walk, and the way all the kids take turns at caring for him and early on they all helped Rebekah. I’ve never seen kids so gung ho about family farming….. Jonah is only 15 and invents ways to fix things. The way you and Rebekah have raised your children is impressive!! The farm is all about family and education…. Awesome and impressive!
2:11:02 you’re so unbelievably trusting and positive and those kids little spirits are fed so much by your unending trust in them and they way you don’t distract them with worry or fear and they feel empowered to do anything is touching the deepest parts of my heart. Each and every one of them feels so heard and free and strong and smart. So wonderful to have documented and I feel blessed to share these moments with you. Thanks for being you and sharing it with the world believe me as a new person who’s trying to document just snippets of my life I know how truly difficult it is to set up cameras and edit and remember all the I’s and T’s! Great work and lovely people !!
I’ve loved watching your 100 days of building a homestead. I probably joined you guys at about day 15 or 20 and I’m so glad this came up on my for you page. I love being able to wake up and know that I can watch a video of you guys. I’m 12 years old and want to start doing things similar to you guys but my parents won’t even let me get chickens. I want to own a farm/homestead when I’m older but I just feel like it’s never gonna happen. We will see what comes into my life. Love you Justin, Rebecca, Jonah, Josiah, Lily, Gideon, Henry, and animals. Love, Hannah Johnson from Oregon Thank you guys so much for all the advice and support in my dream. Love you!
Hello Hannah, fellow Oregonian here! Maybe ask if you can have a 5x5 or possibly 10×10 chunk of yard and start your very own little garden. Prove them your committed and faithful to that responsibility, show them you can grow food and you might get excited! Never say never if you want something!
Hannah, Don't give up, When I was 15 my Father put a hold on my dreams. At the time I told him when I get 21 you can't stop me. I stayed mad at my Father for 6 years. I left home the week before my 21 birthday & filled my dream & became a member of the AAGPL. I placed 2 years as the league disbanded in 1954 after 11 years. Whatever your dreams are don't give up, remember only you can make them come true. Stay strong. Your parents' job is to help you choose the best road to follow in your young life. You have time on your side.
You can hv whatever you like just continue to dream your dream watching him learning what it takes then show your parents just what it takes to survive off the land I hv faith in you I’m 71got started also in the early stages of their lives I love it I just love all of it I cann foods bc of them I hv many birds bc of them I watched him fence it off so I did it you can too your city allows 3birds but if you keep them clean and keep a lot of ppl knowing you can hv more I got 20😮 yes 20 start off buying the minimum 3ea city chk your area buy the foods first all the things you need then the birds it’s dooooo easy
Watching these 100 days has been so inspiring. I cannot wait to watch this right now! Thank you for all you do. Also just finished reading The Rooted Life this morning. What a great day this is.
I have thoroughly enjoyed watching all the Rhodes family during the 100 days. It went by too fast. You are an awesome family! I'm 70 years (young)! Y'all give me something to look forward to every day. Thank you and God Bless each one!😊
I really liked how you and Dan did this compilation video on the "Building a Homestead in 100 days". You showed parts of the videos with a commentary in between. It flows really well with the explanations in between. I really liked the spring water set-up parts. It was so great that you got your goals accomplished over the 100 days and did it together as a family! Thanks for this Rhodes family!
If I was in your situation, like building a Homestead I would build a sheep house so the sheep don’t get shocked or anything damaging like lightning hail
Enjoyed your journey. Jonah healing, Josiah coming into his own, really stepping up to the challenges. Watching him smile when he cut those first trees. Priceless. Lilly IS a little work horse! Mr. Brown is growing up and is finding his shoes so to speak. Becoming a good helper. Henry coming along to be with Dad. It's hard to hide success. Your success is your family. Bravo 👏
We watch your videos every day! Thank you for teaching us and allowing us to be a part of your everyday routine. No matter what you are doing, it is a privilege to be able to watch you and your family set goals, watch your kids grow up, and to be a part of your life. Thank you, Hope
❤Thank you all so much for sharing your journey with us! What a blessing it is to get to watch, learn & enjoy! You are truly an inspiration & great teachers - all of the Rhodes family! I learn even from your precious kids 🥰 God bless you❤
I have loved watching the 100 days. I became a first time parent of twins at day 70 and has been so interesting for me to be learning about your family as mine is just getting started and pondering what it means to be a parent ect. Thank you so much!! & good luck in your future. love from australia
Seeing your kids absolutely dive into power tools and you letting them! It is absolutely amazing to watch. Too many kids these days aren't exposed to this kind of thing. I myself never want kids, but if I did, I'd want them to turn out like those two young men there. They are going to grow up knowing how to get shit done! Keep on trucking kids!
Hi..... Justin Rhodes and your son's to love watching your video homestead beautiful great good job thanks you for showing your video homestead bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋👍👍👍
Awesome video guys. Huge examples and awesome content. I’m 25 and have a lovely wife. We have three beautiful babies Devin 5, Marlee3, and Maverick 1. And I just love the way y’all raise your children to work along side you and to not be focused on tv or video games. Exactly what I want to do with mine! Thanks again for all the content. Much love from Mississippi
if they can turn all that into a homestead in 100 days, I most certainly can turn my backyard into a "homestead" this summer. I've been watching the whole journey and it's inspired me
Hello from Australia, You once said you were going to pull down "old/existing " structures where you were clearing... .... a suggestion... Since you will being running livestock over that area, keep the buildings, strengthen them, to make them sound. These can store extra animal, fencing,battery chargers, tools and water spares, to save you running back and forth. Just a thought. Lorraine
You've set your kids up for success better than most - I grew up on a farm and watching your kids enjoy it so much gives me a strong sense of nostalgia ❤
Your oldest son is just amazing. He is so passionate. A future engineer. He is so full of passion and problem solving and confident. It is a testament of him growing up with you and you encouraging. Just imagine doing this without your kids. Just imagine tour kids growing up without the opportunity to try things.
Good job Justin and family! Not only has it been fun to watch what you're doing on your Farm but you are a great teacher Justin. You are testimony to keep pushing through and great things can happen. I pray for your family often that the Lord would continually bless you each step. You all are amazing! Trust in the Lord that each day as we lift you up in prayer that's physical healing floods your family in whatever way it may be needed the Lord knows. I just want to say thank you my hope is one day my family will have a different place but until then we do what we can. Bless each one of you
We really enjoyed the inspiring100-day project as we watched all of you work towards your goals as you grew to love the land as a family and together overcoming all the obstacles you faced.
I don’t have a farm but my husband and I worked clearing our property down to the creek and it made a huge difference and really opened our property up. The property we live on has a lot of sentimental history for us and will always be special. Even though my property isn’t anywhere near the size as yours, I completely understand what you are feeling. And, you have really wonderful children. I was so impressed at their ability and how they were out there working like men and a little lady. I know you must be so proud of them but hope you two are also proud of yourselves as parents. You are doing a great job with them. Congratulations on your accomplishments so far.
So agree with you. My daughter and I are presently trying to put an offer on some land to start homesteading again. Been praying this lot may be what God has for us.
This may be dramatic, but you get me through grad school! Being able to look forward to a 10-20 minute session of totally relaxing my brain and enjoying your videos is the highlight of my life right now. And your one of the only things I can listen to when I get migraines. Bless your whole existence seriously 😅❤
I'm so so so thankful, that falling branch didn't do more damage, Justin. Nov 21, 1989 my dad went home to Jesus under similar circumstances. Praise God for His protection and mercy.
LOVED IT! Will be the story of your kids to recall when they are your age Justin! Imagine the kind of pride they will have as men knowing they helped you succeed with your vision and also wanting to make it happen for themselves! I hope this land is in your family for many many generations to come! I’m sure if your boys or your precious Lily have anything to say about it, it will be! Congratulations on all your hard work and your success, that water is something truly extra special! Something I don’t think the kids fully appreciate but definitely will one day!! That’s something incredible and rare and extra special clean spring water!! Wow!! You could bottle it!! 🥰❤️🇨🇦🙏🏻
I love how y'all are raising your children! This was an incredible story of hard work, love and the bond of how family should be. Praise and love to you all!❤
I visited the country of my birth, Colombia, and I was amazed at some of the cultivations on the side of mountains. They even had cows grazing on these steep slopes. I was amazed at how they were able to get up there, but they did.
I do agree with some of the comments that the Rhodes didnt really build a homestead in 100 days they just accessed water, better access and cleared 2 acres. But im not putting it down at all i loved the videos and think they did a great job . I think what happened was the original goal was to build a homestead but it turned into remodel the current housebarn and clear more land for more cows...much love ❤
What do you think building a homestead is. These are the first three critical tasks. Everyone has there own option on what a homestead build is, I guess
@Justin Rhodes i wasnt trying to put your process down or anything negative.. i think yall did a great job and got alot accomplished. It gave me some great ideas with that everflow watering system..id actually love to hear about if i could build one here in the frozen canadian north
What a great project. Kids are hard workers and Justin teaches the why's, what nots with a nostalgia of what he learned as a young man. Awesome. Blessings.
So awesome you guys! Well done, and thanks for sharing the journey with us. It’s such a joy to see you all working together, and so fun to see the boys’ excitement over the new machinery.
For anyone pulling stumps with a tractor I recommend using your 3 point with a really strong draw bar, putting strain on your loader can cause harm in the long run, also your lift power in your 3 pint is a lot stronger and when you pull away your adding weight to the rear wheels.
Nice to see a review of the 100 days. I can't recall you ever trying a ram pump in your quest for the everflow system. The boys did great on the waterwheel, they should work on a ram pump to feed the property as the velocity/flow of water at the waterwheel site could probably work very well! With proper conditions it could lift up to 400 ft in elevation, they would love that with no need for electricity! Great job everyone! Blessings, Jan
You were so blessed with good hearted kids, but you guys have done an AWESOME job racing them & teach them the value of God, family & hard work!! God bless you!! 🙌🏻🦋🤗Love & admiration from Kentucky 🙌🏻🦋
You are teaching your boys skills they can carry through the rest of there lives. I think that is fantastic. I have 3 sons they are all grown now and on there own. But some of there greatest memories are were they helped me on our home. And they have carried those skills they learned with them.
To see you guys everyday has been so wonderful, I will miss daily videos as you are all part of my daily routine...Thank you for all the hard work you have shown us all...Please keep the videos coming and enjoy your vacation coming up...Hopefully you will share a little of that :)
I was thinking about 'Rooted', and how far you have come in the last year or so, not just in the last 100 days. My heart is full of thanks to God for recovery and abundance. I admire you very much for the hard work. And joy together with you in the fruits of the labor.
Watched every day and learned so many things and details. Perspective of what it takes to make a dream, Reality. Thank you Justin for allowing us to come along. Thank you, Rebecca, Jonah, Josiah, Miss lily, And of course Mr. Brown.. And the cutest of all, Mr. Henry!! Thank you for all your hard work! I am so proud of you kids..
You are fortunate to have Josiah on your team. Her is a work horse, he is a good listener to Justin and respectful, doesn’t argue and he is shares the workload well.
So good to see Boss Man shine and Josiah get at the getting things accomplished. Go Rhodes Crew. Mountain laurel you got a gold mine of bay leaf there. Sometimes, old school out does the new fangled. Use it up, wear it out or do with out. Whichever the way you do it, you are creating family legacy, happy memories to hand down through the generations. Watching all these big machines pulling the things by the pond reminds me of a children's book.
Wow!! I’ve never been so impressed with a family!! Your kids are amazing!! I’m so glad that yall decided to rebuild your house and make it yours!! I’m sure it would have made your Dad look down and smile!! I found your videos during the hurricane, now I’m binge watching all your other videos! I love them! Reminds me of when we first moved to NC from NY state. We bought land that was completely full of trees and people were dumping their trash in the woods. We only had 4 acres, but we cleared some of it and cleaned a ton of trash off of it and built our house mostly by ourselves. I was 10 when we moved here, by 12, our land was cleared and our house was built and we also helped my Aunt and her family do the same thing with their land. Proud moment for any family!! Congrats to your family!! Great job!! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great job with the 100 day summary! I really enjoyed this. Everyone involved will have precious memories to pass along to later generations. You can’t buy those types of memories. Thanks for sharing it with us!
I am going to watch this later when I have some time to sit and enjoy it, but I wanted to say THANK YOU to you and your family for the daily vlogs. I look forward to watching them and will miss them! I just recently found your channel, so I know there are tons of videos for me to catch up on! Enjoy some much deserved relaxation (as much as you can, anyway) on your vacation! 😊
I watched days one through 99 but seeing it all together was a different experience--well done on the film and on the homestead development! As my grandmother would say, it's time for the Rhodes family to "take an ease-o." 🙂
I'm always in awe of how wonderfully you're raising your kids to be capable and yet they are still very much kids. They carry responsibility in an old fashioned age appropriate, developmentally appropriate way that seems to be rare nowadays.
I’m telling you what Patara I am wrung out with three years of this crap. You are right I personally am absolutely sick of being lied to and manipulated. I go between just focusing on my animals and family and tuning every bit of it out to being sucked back into it again with major anxiety. Feeling like some big hammer is about to drop. Thanks for this video. Glad to know others have had it too and I’m drawing the line at War of the Worlds too!
Mercy! So many memories dealing with water lines on the side of our mountain when I was a kid. We owned 7 acres of "Spring Mountain". Sure do miss that sweet water.
I’m still watching and I’m so excited for you to have the boys and young girl getting into the work with their dad and doing a great job as well 🙏🎼🎵🎶🎶🎶🤵♂️🙏
Now, Have a wonderful, fun VACATION!!!! and don't forget, all of us who are addicted to watching your family every day, well...we will be here waiting for you when you get back!!! Be safe and have tons of fun!!! From Utah.
Excited about what you decided to do about the siding. Lilly's the littlest lumberjacqueline no doubt. She really came through. Your sons are the new Beastie Boys. Fax! You & your wife are def on the right track with your fam & your lives. Continue to lead the masses forward out of these big cities & into the original ways of traditional family values & harmonious stewardship of this big garden we've been gifted with. Lovin it! Good times
Beautiful outro, the bonding and enjoyment is clear to see from henry to Joshua to Mom to Pop. That will live with you all as you grow... amazing work by the kids, no better life skill being taught here than the grind gets it done, but with people you love, it's becoming your legacy
This is amazing.... 13 minutes in, and I just realized this is almost 3 hrs long. Im gonna try to watch the whole thing. Thanks for sharing. You set a good example as a Dad, too.
Tree stump puller’s on skid steers work the best. A 10 inch tree gets removed in seconds. The skid steer easily Shakes 99% of the topsoil off of the stump. Well, well easily worth the investment by the looks of your land!
My face is always happy everytime I'm watching ur videos with a whole family 😂😂😂 the kids is so happy helping in one another... Love love love to ur eldest son...... GOD BLESS TO UR FAMILY JUSTIN RHODES❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
thank you for all the hard work you put in the video i broke my back in 2013 now all i do watch video i have a hard time to walk this is a great video dave s from ct
I’m so happy to see you guys with all the safety gear when run power saws I have lost a few friends to those tools complacent work and no safety equipment equals tragedy!!!! Great job
@1:25:15 🌊 so happy to see you guys have been so far since this thought.... I think it will be super awesome to watch you guys rebuild and v2.0 of the work you have done. It's been a joy going back in time to get to know your family ! Helene is going to bring a rising river of new love! cheers and keep dreaming
You're also forgetting that those roots also stabilize the ground on the slope. Which is very important when you have rushing water trying to wash all that dirt down the slope. I usually try and cut the stomp down and if I need to plant something close to it I work around the old trees roots and plant the new one. This way I do not disturb the micro organisms and fungi in the grown and it just transfers from the old root to the new one. Stay safe. God Bless.
This must be like a dream life for a kid, out in the woods on your own land with pops, exploring and doing projects together. They all seem so sweet and well-behaved, too. You seem like a great dad.
❤HISDAD was also❤❤
you would be amazed how much brush those cattle with eat and knock down on those hillsides, they csn climb some steep slopes, you wasteing lots of feed

You have 5 kids, who will all eventually need their own homes. They may not all want to stay on the farm, but you may find several of your home sites may end up getting used!😊

Hello from Australia,
You once said you were going to pull down "old/existing " structures where you were clearing... .... a suggestion...
Since you will being running livestock over that area, keep the buildings, strengthen them, to make them sound.
These can store extra animal, fencing,battery chargers, tools and water spares, to save you running back and forth. Just a thought. Lorraine

So agree with you. My daughter and I are presently trying to put an offer on some land to start homesteading again. Been praying this lot may be what God has for us.
Hi elyce how are you doing today
Amazing accomplishments. Fantastic legacy with your children. You're an amazing father. Well done everyone! 🥳
We are supper excited to see other homesteads from Oklahoma. We are sharing your journey uo here around Keystone Lake and loving it.
WOW, y'all this series got me watching you. Hopefully many more cool things to come. Thanks for sharing!
Watch the old stuff! It’s awesome.
More to come!
@@theJustinRhodesShow can't wait, I love seeing the kids work around the farm. I love to see Jonah especially because he's about my age.
🇦🇺I love the way you and your kids work so well together. It’s amazing what can be done when people work together.
I just love how you work with your kids teaching them.... I love how you all live!!!
Congratulations Rhodes Family! 🤩👍🏾👏🏾
This may be dramatic, but you get me through grad school! Being able to look forward to a 10-20 minute session of totally relaxing my brain and enjoying your videos is the highlight of my life right now.
And your one of the only things I can listen to when I get migraines.
Bless your whole existence seriously 😅❤
Hi my friend how are you doing today 😊
I'm so so so thankful, that falling branch didn't do more damage, Justin. Nov 21, 1989 my dad went home to Jesus under similar circumstances. Praise God for His protection and mercy.
Hi my friend how are you doing 😊
LOVED IT! Will be the story of your kids to recall when they are your age Justin! Imagine the kind of pride they will have as men knowing they helped you succeed with your vision and also wanting to make it happen for themselves! I hope this land is in your family for many many generations to come! I’m sure if your boys or your precious Lily have anything to say about it, it will be! Congratulations on all your hard work and your success, that water is something truly extra special! Something I don’t think the kids fully appreciate but definitely will one day!! That’s something incredible and rare and extra special clean spring water!! Wow!! You could bottle it!! 🥰❤️🇨🇦🙏🏻
This no doubt will bring tears of joy...Well done Rhodes Pack, that was a true adventure!!!
We just got our epoch times with your beautiful picture and interview on there. We love you.
Mya is so proud to show you all of his toys. I love Jess and Mya from roots and refuge
A awesome end to a awesome video series, thank you for sharing
I love how y'all are raising your children! This was an incredible story of hard work, love and the bond of how family should be. Praise and love to you all!❤
Hi Sylvia how are you doing today ☺️
I visited the country of my birth, Colombia, and I was amazed at some of the cultivations on the side of mountains. They even had cows grazing on these steep slopes. I was amazed at how they were able to get up there, but they did.
I do agree with some of the comments that the Rhodes didnt really build a homestead in 100 days they just accessed water, better access and cleared 2 acres. But im not putting it down at all i loved the videos and think they did a great job . I think what happened was the original goal was to build a homestead but it turned into remodel the current housebarn and clear more land for more cows...much love ❤
What do you think building a homestead is. These are the first three critical tasks. Everyone has there own option on what a homestead build is, I guess
To me building a homestead is the buildings (including the home), the garden, the orchard and the animals (
@Justin Rhodes i wasnt trying to put your process down or anything negative.. i think yall did a great job and got alot accomplished. It gave me some great ideas with that everflow watering system..id actually love to hear about if i could build one here in the frozen canadian north
Are you “home schooling”?
Nobody can completely build their homestead in 100 days. I think it is more of 100 days of building a homestead.
The vibe from that Lowes trip was so relatable 🥲😂😆
We're doing it together and that's just priceless ☺️
What a great project. Kids are hard workers and Justin teaches the why's, what nots with a nostalgia of what he learned as a young man. Awesome. Blessings.

So awesome you guys! Well done, and thanks for sharing the journey with us. It’s such a joy to see you all working together, and so fun to see the boys’ excitement over the new machinery.
For anyone pulling stumps with a tractor I recommend using your 3 point with a really strong draw bar, putting strain on your loader can cause harm in the long run, also your lift power in your 3 pint is a lot stronger and when you pull away your adding weight to the rear wheels.
Nice to see a review of the 100 days.
I can't recall you ever trying a ram pump in your quest for the everflow system.
The boys did great on the waterwheel, they should work on a ram pump to feed the property as the velocity/flow of water at the waterwheel site could probably work very well! With proper conditions it could lift up to 400 ft in elevation, they would love that with no need for electricity!
Great job everyone!
Blessings,
Jan
Well done grasshopppers! (Kung Fu)! Have a wonderful time to all of you on your vacation. You've earned it.

You were so blessed with good hearted kids, but you guys have done an AWESOME job racing them & teach them the value of God, family & hard work!! God bless you!! 🙌🏻🦋🤗Love & admiration from Kentucky 🙌🏻🦋
You and your family have been such an inspiration to our family! We will be moving to our homestead soon 😊 I can’t wait to start posting our journey.
You are teaching your boys skills they can carry through the rest of there lives. I think that is fantastic. I have 3 sons they are all grown now and on there own. But some of there greatest memories are were they helped me on our home. And they have carried those skills they learned with them.
To see you guys everyday has been so wonderful, I will miss daily videos as you are all part of my daily routine...Thank you for all the hard work you have shown us all...Please keep the videos coming and enjoy your vacation coming up...Hopefully you will share a little of that :)
I was thinking about 'Rooted', and how far you have come in the last year or so, not just in the last 100 days. My heart is full of thanks to God for recovery and abundance. I admire you very much for the hard work. And joy together with you in the fruits of the labor.
Watched every day and learned so many things and details. Perspective of what it takes to make a dream, Reality.
Thank you Justin for allowing us to come along.
Thank you, Rebecca, Jonah, Josiah, Miss lily, And of course Mr. Brown.. And the cutest of all, Mr. Henry!!
Thank you for all your hard work! I am so proud of you kids..

You are fortunate to have Josiah on your team. Her is a work horse, he is a good listener to Justin and respectful, doesn’t argue and he is shares the workload well.
Love. Love. Love! Fantastic film and beautiful family. Bravo!
So good to see Boss Man shine and Josiah get at the getting things accomplished. Go Rhodes Crew.
Mountain laurel you got a gold mine of bay leaf there.
Sometimes, old school out does the new fangled. Use it up, wear it out or do with out.
Whichever the way you do it, you are creating family legacy, happy memories to hand down through the generations.
Watching all these big machines pulling the things by the pond reminds me of a children's book.
Justin your kids are just awesome. You are so lucky to have them.
For your children to have their own passion for working the land and reaching goals is a true blessing. Great job guys 👍. 🙂
I loved the pond clean out, hated to see the tractor leave 😅
Wow!! I’ve never been so impressed with a family!! Your kids are amazing!! I’m so glad that yall decided to rebuild your house and make it yours!! I’m sure it would have made your Dad look down and smile!! I found your videos during the hurricane, now I’m binge watching all your other videos! I love them! Reminds me of when we first moved to NC from NY state. We bought land that was completely full of trees and people were dumping their trash in the woods. We only had 4 acres, but we cleared some of it and cleaned a ton of trash off of it and built our house mostly by ourselves. I was 10 when we moved here, by 12, our land was cleared and our house was built and we also helped my Aunt and her family do the same thing with their land. Proud moment for any family!! Congrats to your family!! Great job!! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Such an amazing journey for a wonderful family! I’m so impressed with your children and how hard they work, you are blessed.
Great job with the 100 day summary! I really enjoyed this. Everyone involved will have precious memories to pass along to later generations. You can’t buy those types of memories. Thanks for sharing it with us!
I am going to watch this later when I have some time to sit and enjoy it, but I wanted to say THANK YOU to you and your family for the daily vlogs. I look forward to watching them and will miss them! I just recently found your channel, so I know there are tons of videos for me to catch up on! Enjoy some much deserved relaxation (as much as you can, anyway) on your vacation! 😊
I think you would really enjoy the great American Farm tour. It should be in the playlist.
@@kellygreen8255 I will check it out! Thank you!!
I watched days one through 99 but seeing it all together was a different experience--well done on the film and on the homestead development! As my grandmother would say, it's time for the Rhodes family to "take an ease-o." 🙂

I'm always in awe of how wonderfully you're raising your kids to be capable and yet they are still very much kids. They carry responsibility in an old fashioned age appropriate, developmentally appropriate way that seems to be rare nowadays.
I’m telling you what Patara I am wrung out with three years of this crap. You are right I personally am absolutely sick of being lied to and manipulated. I go between just focusing on my animals and family and tuning every bit of it out to being sucked back into it again with major anxiety. Feeling like some big hammer is about to drop. Thanks for this video. Glad to know others have had it too and I’m drawing the line at War of the Worlds too!
Hi Trish how are you doing today?😊
Mercy! So many memories dealing with water lines on the side of our mountain when I was a kid. We owned 7 acres of "Spring Mountain". Sure do miss that sweet water.
Hi Angie how are you doing today
Great job including the kids. Please put ear protection on them any time you’re running the saw in their vicinity.
I’m still watching and I’m so excited for you to have the boys and young girl getting into the work with their dad and doing a great job as well 🙏🎼🎵🎶🎶🎶🤵♂️🙏
You all have done a marvellous job and working together as a family all with the same dream.
Oh My Justin and Rebecca ,Great Job ! The whole project with your amazing Children,So so Impressed and Blessed ! WOW

You guys are awesome! Been educational watching all the steps you've been through. Hope to make my own someday
Your kids are brave and hardworking. I hope they carry that onto future generations.
Now, Have a wonderful, fun VACATION!!!! and don't forget, all of us who are addicted to watching your family every day, well...we will be here waiting for you when you get back!!! Be safe and have tons of fun!!! From Utah.
Excited about what you decided to do about the siding. Lilly's the littlest lumberjacqueline no doubt. She really came through. Your sons are the new Beastie Boys. Fax! You & your wife are def on the right track with your fam & your lives. Continue to lead the masses forward out of these big cities & into the original ways of traditional family values & harmonious stewardship of this big garden we've been gifted with. Lovin it! Good times
Beautiful outro, the bonding and enjoyment is clear to see from henry to Joshua to Mom to Pop. That will live with you all as you grow... amazing work by the kids, no better life skill being taught here than the grind gets it done, but with people you love, it's becoming your legacy
This is amazing.... 13 minutes in, and I just realized this is almost 3 hrs long. Im gonna try to watch the whole thing. Thanks for sharing. You set a good example as a Dad, too.
Thank you for this I am suffering with insomnia and this has been so relaxing great voice Enjoyed love and blessings
a lovely journey ❤ thank you for including us
My pleasure 😊
What great parents and awesome kids you have done well God Bless
Tree stump puller’s on skid steers work the best.
A 10 inch tree gets removed in seconds.
The skid steer easily Shakes 99% of the topsoil off of the stump.
Well, well easily worth the investment by the looks of your land!
This is what building a legacy is. Tell your kiddos they are living the life that most American's can only dream of. Super stoked for you all!
Hi Christina how are you doing today
My face is always happy everytime I'm watching ur videos with a whole family 😂😂😂 the kids is so happy helping in one another... Love love love to ur eldest son...... GOD BLESS TO UR FAMILY JUSTIN RHODES❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I so love the Initiative of the youngsters
thank you for all the hard work you put in the video i broke my back in 2013 now all i do watch video i have a hard time to walk this is a great video dave s from ct
I’m so happy to see you guys with all the safety gear when run power saws I have lost a few friends to those tools complacent work and no safety equipment equals tragedy!!!! Great job
@1:25:15 🌊 so happy to see you guys have been so far since this thought.... I think it will be super awesome to watch you guys rebuild and v2.0 of the work you have done. It's been a joy going back in time to get to know your family ! Helene is going to bring a rising river of new love! cheers and keep dreaming
You have done so much with the house you are in that you can remodel and gain a great home.
You're also forgetting that those roots also stabilize the ground on the slope. Which is very important when you have rushing water trying to wash all that dirt down the slope. I usually try and cut the stomp down and if I need to plant something close to it I work around the old trees roots and plant the new one. This way I do not disturb the micro organisms and fungi in the grown and it just transfers from the old root to the new one. Stay safe. God Bless.
