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!

I was just thinking it would be cool to save some of the huge rocks to put into the permanent outdoor area for the goats then they can really be little mountain goats LOL
Al could you do another video on your milking machine. I think many would be very interested. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to your channel hitting 100,000 subscribers soon. God bless America.
I love watching the little goat kids play. I noticed you have a new milk pump for the mama goat. You seemed to get more milk with it. It is so pleasant to watch you work on your homestead and the way that you relate with your sweet little daughter. Thank you for another great video.
little man and hope look wonderful together. I'll bet if they had baby's they would be beautiful!
The more i watch, the more i am impressed with your construction skills.. i've watched you do just about everything from site prep to construction to plumbing with total competency.. Plus, i've copied some of your recipes, too... lol
Hope is so gentle with the babies. I think you're right that she will end up herd mom.
Loved it when you were letting Hope back into the area and she kept looking for you to open the gate further before climbing on it and pushing it herself. Great teaching video.
A tip for next time... tape your three cans of pipe prep and glue together with duct or electrical tape. Makes it more convenient to move around and keep track of.
I'd be afraid they would all spill together.
Happy Father’s Day Al, you are making great progress on the homestead. Girls treat him special for Father’s Day he loves you both, and it shows. God bless you 3 special people and also all your wonderful animals.
WOW! That operator was GOOD! He dropped the fill in exactly where it was needed. I salute you sir!
As always thank you so much for sharing your time etc with us, I always enjoy the quiet early morning with you guys and a cup of coffee! I would really like to figure out what is up with the chickens too, could it be a dietary deficiency or maybe even the odd weather is throwing egg production off so much? I really hope you don't take this as a criticism because I appreciate and respect you and your family and the inspiration you have given me to start my own small backyard endeavor, however you may want to show a little less of the repetitive stuff on some of the projects. The best example I can give is gluing all the pipes together for the underground lines, after 2 or 3 we have a fair idea about what you are doing, why and how. Your channel is one of my absolute favorites! God bless you all.
Happy Father's Day tomorrow! You've worked so hard and should enjoy a day off. Bless you!!
My goodness! The rain doesn’t even stop you from having a productive day! Take care, ♥️🕊☺️🙏🌞
And also Happy Father's Day Al and all the other fathers have a great day❤
i like the idea of placing the red caution tape down along your pipe. Great way of marking it for future digs!!
You got so much done! I thought you might habe to swim to get the last long pipe done. Lol!
Your farm is growing fast and beautiful.
Thank you for sharing,God bless.
Good Mornin from Pa & I'm so sick of rain! Just love watching the goats and love to see Ms waggy tail Hope & Al I sure hope that you keep little man so him & Hope can have babies they would be a great looking baby❤
When I go to college I'm going to work with animals so Ill be able to change the world we live like you do everyday love your videos
Whoohoo More Eggs!! 🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚Good idea to move New Yolk City. 🐔🏠
Hope and Little Man are so cute together. And Hope out by herself was great to see.🐐
The place is coming together Al. Very exciting 🥂
Good mauhnin Al! Oh boy! Rain, again! Well it’s better than snow I guess🤷♀️. Still it’s wet and yucky! Got a lot done though. Take care, all is coming along well.
Happy Father’s Day Al!
You r an amazing jack of all trades!
So much fun watching Hope play with Little Man 😃.
If they don't sell him they would be really good buddies ^^
Nothing I admire like perseverance, y’all will absolutely treasure the new barn, y’all are working so diligently to get it!👍🏼👍🏼
Nothing but rocks! ... NH lives up to it's nickname - The Granite State!
It is heartwarming to hear Hope had a lovely play with Little Man, she is the most gorgeous goat ever, her personality shines. The other babies are perfect and gorgeous too :) wish they were all mine 🐐🥰 😍🌼💐
Love seeing the progress at your farm 😀 And the goat kids exploring the world.
So much rain you could make a pond! 😀
You have enough rocks to make lots of Irish walls!😂❤️
Same where I am up in the northwest .. we even have houses n basements made of it...lol
@@MstresVampy it appears to me that all you do there is dig the basement, and the stone for the walls is already in the hole for you.
Michigan says enough rain, coming your way. Keep the baby goats coming....makes me happy
Good morning Al I've noticed you haven't been thanking the chickens will their hard work maybe that's why they just quit laying
That's a long run. Not every day you get to play in the rain. Glad to see the kids playing. Thanks for sharing.
When I think what I paid for rocks for my KOI pond and you have enough rocks for the picking to build a castle.
LOL
I was thinking the exact same thing! I need about 20 dump truck loads for erosion control on our hillside heading down to the river and all I have in my yard is clay 😤 thick nasty sticky gray clay! Unless I become a potter it's worthless! Lol! (I could make clay bricks for a castle....🤔)
@@bearrivermama6414 I'll Bet Al would give you as many as you want free for the picking & hauling.
Allen Callender ha ha! I bet your right! I could trade some of our eggs for rocks since his chickens are on egg laying vacation... 😊 if only we didn't live a 24 hour drive away.... 😂
@@bearrivermama6414 Look into soil Science and build that clay soil into something better. I had clay soil in my last house, then neighbors told us we'd never be able to grow anything along the fence where we wanted a small garden. Since previous owner put old transmissions over there and toxic fluids. But we worked the soil and added nutrients and plants and had more tomatoes and zuchinis and strawberries and hot peppers than we could ever use.
Hope is so funny, she has found her equal in Little Man. So cute together.
Al...Just wanted to tell you that we hope you had a great Father's Day! We thank you & your family for sharing your life with us. We watch you before any other videos. Feels like a new gift whenever we get a new one. And when we don't, we watch the past videos. Best consistently uplifting sharing that we've ever seen. We know life is ups & downs combined, but you don't over-dramatize the downs. Thanks for being a wonderful testimony to having God in your lives.
Very sincerely,
Bill & Leslie
Good morning everyone. More rain! That’s all you need ☔️☔️☔️ Have a good day all of you 😊💞
Good Mornin’!!
Raining here in NC also.
Your place is gorgeous and enjoying your videos- thanks for keeping it real and showing how you fix things that go wrong. Great the way you are already teaching another generation of homesteaders. 😊
Aww, Hope and Lil man playing 😀😍😊😊😀 too cute!! You should set up a camera in the goat area(of course, where they can't reach it, and when it's not raining) and record them for a day. I could watch them play all day! It looks like all the goats are getting along, and Buttercup, and Blossom aren't bullying the kid goats! But then, Willow has been doing a wonderful job at protecting them!
I have noticed since you put all the goats together that little man isn't scared of anything he will stand his ground even with the bigger goats.
That dude that’s been working on all of the tasks is the best operator that I’ve ever seen.
Loving your videos Al. I find my self each morning looking for the next one. What a great, happy homestead. You are a lucky man!
Thanks for vid today. Was feeling pretty down and just watching the methodical process of digging the trench, laying the conduit, filling the trench and making everything tidy again somehow soothed me. I love seeing how you build etc. A very handy person. And a perfectionist, which I like. Really looking forward to watching the barn being built. Keep up the great work Al, you are an inspiration!
Hope and Lil Man are the cutest couple. They would have stellar little babies together and they are not related so it would be fantastic to keep Lil Man (or borrow him back if you sell him) just for coupling with Hope and any others that he is not related to. He is such a handsome little dude. As for that rain, that was a torrent. It is so great to see you reshaping the land to avoid future bogs in your main areas. Have a great week Lumnah Acres.
T-shirt idea: “LIVE FREE OR DIE” with a graphic of the crazy white chicken below.
Nice one.
Good Morning,we would love to have some of that rain in south Texas Al.Have a wonderful Father’s Day with your family.
Happy Father’s Day, Al! You remind me so much of my Dad. There wasn’t much he couldn’t do or fix & he did it without the internet! LOL. Always working to improve y’all’s lives & achieve your dreams. You are such a blessing to your family. The US Postal Service motto comes to mind: "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds". Keep up the awesome work! I’ll sure be watching as you continue this journey! Love & Hugs from Vicki in Ft. Worth, Texas
That was a good job you dun there on the pipe from the bun to the house and it's good to see the goats play together and it's funny seen hop with the bucket on he's head 🐐🐐👍
That's almost the way the weather is around here only we don't have all that rain, but 85 or 90 during the day, in the morning it's very cool you need to put a sweater on. The work you're doing is fascinating to watch. Good to see all the animals are doing well. Thanks for sharing.
If this isn't going to be inspected there's no need for the purple primer. Also you can just glue those joints and use about half the amount you're using. That cleaner is only necessary if you have something on the plastic that would prevent a bond. Hope this helps in the future
Seeing the rocks that are unearthed reminds me of one of my prized possessions. It is a rock the size of a softball that I liberated from the site of my parent's former farm, a farm that is now a public park. The rock is now used as a book end.
Hope and little man are so cute together. I know that you are waiting to get the walls put up on the barn and I am looking forward to seeing that go up. God bless you and your family.
Glad the rain didn't stop you guys from getting the jobs done! The weather has indeed been weird. It was fall like here too but summer like weather is supposed to be coming next week. Lets hope. I love all those beautiful rocks, I see now where all the rocks came from for the rock walls! We have big rocks around here in Gettysburg, but not like your rocks. Love how round they are. Everything is really coming together and hopefully the weather will cooperate and you can get back to barn building.
I hope you saved all those rocks from that trench. It would make for a nice stone wall for decorations and curb appeal for your homestead. I was looking at your driveway where you compacted it; nice job. You have plenty of stones. Here is the south where I live, southeast Tennessee, we have a mountain stone dealer. He deals in several different type of stone. It sells for a pretty penny down here in the south.
good day to you Al, Gina & Olivia !! thanks for sharing another awesome update and adventures on & off the homestead !! 👨🌾🎥👍✝
'Water got in mah boot!'....Al, Lumnah Acres, 2019 🤣✌

From one Dad to another Al....Happy Father's Day. Enjoyed this video Al..but for some reason...I felt WET all the way thru it LOL.down here in Sunny Florida soon to be few hours...Great job on the conduit install...very MOIST day for that job lol. Anywhooooo your grasses are looking alot greener for all of the farm mates to enjoy. I pray for Egg production to take a boost as well.

Orlando, FL
U guys have the most well behaved goats!! Ty
hey Al,can sympathise with you and the rain,in the UK we have just had two months of rain in 48 hours,unbelieivable i can tell ya ,lol.....cannot believe how many rocks and boulders you have though just beneath the surface !!!!!!!.....ever thought of starting a rock quarry and selling them for peoples gardens,you could make a killing im sure ......keep the videos coming,cant wait for the barn raising
Awesome job! Your homestead is really coming along! You work so hard for your family & your dream! Great job! The lane looks gorgeous! 👍
Hope is still so sweet🐐
So funny with Hope and Little Man...the blind leading the blind and both of them learning to GOAT!
You do live on a rocky homestead. Have a happy father’s day. Hope Olivia gets out of school soon. School here got out two weeks ago.
Still say Hope and Little Man would have some really cute babies.
You guys have so much fun with the goats! Fun video today! Lots of work getting done on your farm!
Moose is the Man! Moose says rain rain go away, Al has work to do today!
I wasn't sure why you had the culvert pipe sticking up in the air, I now realise that you are going to install a sink. Getting power to the pad will be a bonus when working on the barn.
Hi from UK.. love your great vids... pipe work please do cover ends while moving into place..keeps muck out of it... even if its a plastic bag or a tennis ball :) you dont want muck inside .. :)
Keep up the great vids.. and yes we like the droan vids.. as shows what a great place you live in.. trees trees and more trees ..lol.. were in the city.. :)
Gooooood Moring Al ,
How very handy to have an excavator on hand ! Makes short work of digging ditches like that . Progress ! I can hardly wait to see the barn actually going up .
Rain , rain , go away , come back some other day ! I have been getting rain for weeks now.
Just when I think it will start drying up , it rains again ! My whole place is wet and soggy .
Here it is June 14th and I still do not have my gardens prepared , much less planted. Soon I will have to start planning a fall garden instead.
Great job getting all that conduit run during the rain. You are such a hard worker. Have a great Father's day, rest, relax and ready to start the barn build. Have a Blessed day.
Good morning Al. You can send some of that rain out here to southern Oregon, we could use it.
I know that dogs stink when they get wet, I can just imagine how the goats must smell 😄!
Great work on getting the utility conduit ran, having electric out at the barn will be a great help.
Happy Father's Day, and have a great weekend.
Hey Al, we are getting rain here in S.E. IA predicting rain for the next four days. Those boots are still new yet. I have a pair that have seven tire patches on them. I can remember as a kid wearing bread sacks over our socks to keep our feet dry till we outgrew our muck boots. Well till later I'll wish you and yours health happiness and prosperity. Larry
Hope reminds me of Rambo over on Doug and Stacy’s homestead channel. When he wants to charge, doug sticks a bucket on his head. Glad you got the ditch and conduit done.
My 5 year old son said willow has cute puppies! Lol
Love the progress on your barn. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who's OCD about cleaning priming and gluing PVC pipe. Good job, still can't figure out why those chickens aren't laying. When you figure it out let us know.
Happy Father's Day.
Best wishes from Alabama,
Jimmy
We haven't hit the 80's yet in Indiana. Today is Saturday, and we got over 4" if rain today. Rain is forecast for the next eight days. We are expecting 15-20" by the end if the week. Hope it stays dry for you.
That made for one big mucky laundry day. Looking like Gina will be able to reclaim the basement some time soon. Wonder if you will miss popping downstairs to work on a project.
I know about that kind of rain! We had 6.5" in about 36ish hours here in the High Country. I'll be very curious to see you pull the power lines through that conduit. Someone said "plastic bag, string and vacuum" but that's gonna have to be a strong vacuum! Blessings to all!
Chicken eggs
Do they need more calcium or protien? Maybe it is just the commotion gong on.
Great job a gentle bend of PVC pipe is much preferred over putting a factory bend in the conduit run. Most electricians will start at the buried end and work toward the end or a straight length of ditch after completing the bend and the conduit is laying on the bottom of the ditch. Never thought of holding plastic over the end with a fitting before, a real pain to get tape off when it goes past the plastic onto the conduit. Many professional things and one rookie mistake, still a great job. Keep up the good work.
Gluing foam insulation to the underside of the tin will make it quieter and keep heat out in summer and heat in in winter
Gosh you're swamped Al water water everywhere...but you're a trooper it doesn't faze you...stay on top of it all💥😊🇧🇧
Sorry about the rain, we went from 105 down to 75 crazy weather in Ca to. Happy Fathers Day, love your videos.
I really love your videos. When are you going to have more cooking at the end we love the recipes.
I remember now why I moved from NH to Arizona. I used to live near Portsmouth.
Al and Gina, did you ever find out what buildings were originally on your property? It comes to mind that you are putting this piece of land " back to rights". Full circle. The barn will be a joy to view from your house. Nice to see your dreams taking shape.
You sure grow a lot of rocks in New Hampshire. I never knew you guys got so much rain there either.
Hey, at least it's not snow that'll take forever to melt XD
Well, that certainly gave your new land gradient a run for its money. Glad it was doing what you wanted.
Man that’s such a deep wide trench, would have been nice if you would have had a trencher. Hope that doesn’t make a mess for your drive way.
Pretty little Hope!
I do love your baby goats👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Father's Day gift, New Boots.
Al, these videos are great . Our “20 X 30” is in the process now. You saved us a fortune too
I’ll suck a string through to feed my final cable through, much like you did in the shop electrical
I see the use of the poly danger tape above the conduit; if somebody is digging in the future they will encounter that before going in too deep
You need to save those big rooks at end I saw to use in the new goat pen
I bet that driver appreciates working with someone that knows his stuff!
Wish that rain was here in California🌧 good girl Willow😍
Gooood Saturday morning Al. Have a great weekend.
We've had a few stick their heads into clear containers and when they go towards the herd they run like a monster is after them. You just can't stop laughing. Life is fun on the farm. 👍🤣
Al with all the smooth rounded rocks you have maybe you need to start prospecting for gold. I can’t wait to see the barn build videos.
Our southeast Wisconsin weather has sucked as well. No pepper plants this year, not sure if the tomatoes will go either. It's been very cool, especially at night. As my neighbor reminded me, you can't always have a good garden. Especially when you live 3/4 of a mile from Lake Michigan.
I always look forward to good morning modern stedders
