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 love how your daughter enjoys spending time with her dad. That says a whole lot for your parenting!
Love a dad teaching his girls to drive the tractor 🚜 and how to build things themselves 👏🥰
This is about the best parenting show on the internet. So wonderful to see a dad working with a daughter to teach se of tools and equipment. Why do I think adult Olivia will be able to fix her own car?
Yup my heart sank.
Absolutely in love with the video. It's so important to teach a young lady how to be self sufficient. Let's not forget about the importance of a daughter and daddy relationship. Melts my heart 💓. Now let's get her in 4-H!!
I love how much you involve Olivia in your activities! Great video!
That was the best I was giggling and laughing the whole time. I love how goats automatically always play “king of the hill” and try to knock each other off
Oh my gosh the lessons and memories you are giving your daughter, money can't buy.
Good job Dad!!
Wow. You are an amazing father. She is one blessed child. She will remember those moments all her life. I have to go back and watch the video again because all I am doing is seeing your interaction with your precious child. You made our morning little princess.
I love this . What a great life and bond daughter and her Dad. What a wonderful Father.
Brings back memories of working with my Daddy. Even at 54, wood, putty & Bondo still smell like love.
Sawdust smells like Dad Love to me!
Best comment ever!
ALPS > Al's Leaping Pad System. You may have started a cottage business :-)We used them for coffee tables in the 70s... Those are happy goats!
diane hall a wire spool was our first coffee table (1975)!
We use to sand them down and put a stain on them and they actually looked pretty darn awesome 😎 also for shelving concrete blocks and wood it was cheap. 🙏🙏
That was awesome watching the goats jump on the spools. The best part was when you said "you know what we need now Olivia?" and she said "a slide." LOL! I'm with her. I think you need a slide!!
We've been looking
LOL!!! That would be awesome!
Fantastic video, I see so much more then just a few spools in the yard, IC and anxiety free, stress free environment, you can just watch the difference between pre and post spools, it was like dark into light. The pigs, the chickens... The chickens got out so we just left them, they're happy! You sent that what you went to find or is that what you went to build.
35 years living with multiple sclerosis here disabled for the past decade, we know what we need to get through it's just showing others how they can help. You went to your homestead because you knew how to help you've walked the path and you're starting, I sat and watch this video for 17 minutes, the pressure inside subsided and I was able to breathe and be comfortable, and that's why I continue to come back, cuz you're working on me too! Thanks for taking the time to share your day it made mine!
Praying you feel better day by day. Ephesians 3
To see a Dad and Daughter working, learning and doing something together is the best.
Mine was kidnapped 5 years ago. So many feelings here with this one.
I need some spools. I got my first goat today. My girlfriends X gave her's away. I have worked with a lot of animals. Goats are new and we found us a Nigerian Dwarf today. So you just taught me something to build for ours.
I am getting ready for the ride. Rabbits, dogs, goats, chickens and whatever else we can have around.
Great Video. Its good to see a young woman trusted with work.
Lifetime memories for Olivia
The goats are so happy! Great idea!
Olivia is such a great help on the farm! Good job with the tractor, girl! Love your videos
The goats are a hoot and seemed to throughly enjoy their "playspool" playground! (I think you and Olivia had just as much fun putting it together too) That was so much fun to watch! Thanks for sharing!
No. Don't end this video. I want to watch more but of it. I like your goats.
The Spool School.
This is one of my favorite Lumnah Acres videos ever!
Really lovely video.
Watching a goat addiction forming right in front of my eyes. LOL.
Yup. It's happening 😬
My thought exactly!
yessss
This video is full of so much love and excitement from everyone!!! I absolutely love this video!!!
How refreshing to see kids being raised without constant e l e c t r o n i c s !!!!!!!!
You're such a good dad. I got a lot of enjoyment out of this video
Those goats are in playground heaven!!!
I could get hooked on those goats what fun they are......loved watching this and your daughter having a blast.
The spools are great but you should try leaving a couple on their side. The goats will jump up on the middle and walk the spools. Very fun to watch!
When we have better fencing we will have to try that. I could see them bull dozing right through the electric netting
I thought about that right after I sent the comment. That electric fence definitely would take a beating. Have fun!
Maybe they should use a gym ball instead of leaving the spools on the side.
On wholesome roots they cover the holes with wood. I think goats will eat at your foam and need wood planks put over top.
Pat Bootie i was think that too, i hope that isnt the case.
I loved seeing Olivia help out and work along side You!
Oh how fun👍👍 you sure made their day !!! Back in the 1970’s we used sand down the tops of the spools then stain them and put a few coats b of clear coat on them and used them for coffee table or whatever you want to use them for. I’m happy your goats are enjoying their new toys. Oh hey your daughter is a really good backhoe operator and driver. Man they grow up so fast. God Bless you and your family 🙏🙏🦋🦋🌈🌈🌺🌸🌻🌻🌼🌹🌹
To cute! Goats love to play king of the hill, Spool hill playground. Thank you for sharing.
What a great dad! Love seeing g you two work together!
Daughter is a great helper !!!!!
three goat mountain...thanks for sharing your families fun. Looking forward to Mondays video.
I enjoyed this video so much I played it twice love those goat and Olivia is so cute and helpful. Thanks so much for the fun I had watching this video.
Loved watching the girls jump around on their new "toad spools" 🐸
Looks like the goats are loving their new play toys.
You come up with the greatest ideas. It's fun watching the goats play. Good morning Olivia.
Goat-a-nasium
What a blast for the goats. Plus Olivia is goint to be a terrific tractor operator👍
Olivia is becoming a real pro at working that Kabota!
Libby makes a very good hand. You are a wonderful family!!
well!! I'd say the spool idea was a smashing success!! I know I enjoyed watching them jump around on them!!
Spool Mountain :] This episode was really fun!
That is so much fun for the goats with their toys and Olivia is definately happy....Maybe some day she'll have open farm day....Love Gina's skirt...Bye🐐🐄👍
Those lucky goats!! They love living on Lumnah acres!!! ❤️🌼🌸
Those spools are awesome. It looks like the goats are enjoying themselves! How adorable. Olivia did great with the tractor and filling those spools with foam! She's doing wonderfully with milking and everything else. We're jealous of the cool weather. It's still so very hot here. Our heat index is still pushing 100. 😩😓☀️🔥☀️.
That's way too hot for my liking. 😂
Good daddy and homesteader. As long as they are not too close to the fence, or they can jump over. Do not be afraid of pushing them further apart. A little challenge is exciting for them. Spoolorama,
Olivia's Let's Spool Around
I see Olivia painting the spools! I have a couple I’ve painted, added wheels and use as side tables.
Oh my gosh too cute! Love the goats....💜
That is so cool that you are teaching your daughter all about homesteading, and even operating the tractor thing! Life skills that will carry her far. Wonderful video, except you are one of the homesteaders that are contributing to my desire to get a couple of Nigerian Dwarf goats! Can we say #enabler? LOL!!!
🐷🐐🐓🐔🍓 good day to you Al, Gina & Olivia !! thanks for sharing another awesome update and adventures on the homestead !! 🍓🐔🐓🐐🐷
Great toys, and lots of fun watching. I think you should call it GoatWorld, incorporate some of your boulders, hang their ball to play with on their toadstools.
This was a treat. I laughed and enjoyed every second of it. And, I think I love your goats as much as you all do.
This is one of my favorite of your family videos. 🥰
Such a good father. She’s going to grow up amazing with you around! Thank you for the great goat ideas🙌🏽
Love the new toys for your goats Olivia you are very very good with them your a goat momma we love you so much I had to edit and tell you how nice it is to see jenna smiling she's so pretty thank you Jenna and LOL it's about time LOL lol LOL lo
I agree, jenna sure is pretty when she smiles
Gina ~8^)
@@ka6148 absolutely
Awesome idea, too cute. Who knew goats wouldn't eat spray foam. The spools remind me of mushrooms in a fairy garden.
They will as soon as they get bored.
Those goats are so fun to watch. Really awesome. Greetings from Andreas on Off Grid Sweden 🇸🇪
Lol watching the goats jump around made me have a proper giggle !!! 😂😂
My first thought was leave one sideways so the goats could walk/roll the reels. Then I realized they would just roll it up to the fence and jump out. Great video.
What a great video, teaching how to operate your tractor. Thank you for sharing.
Good mornin Lumnahs ..... the goats are having a blast ...... Willow really wants to roll some spools. Love how they play "king of the hill" on the spools, and Willow doesn't seem to have any qualms of batting/butting the little ones off. Take care AL, Gina & Goat Whisperer Olivia ~8^)
I love it. Those goats are so lucky. You guys really love them.
I have got the perfect name for the spool park. Toadstool Park you can paint them various natural colors and add white and black dots and they will look like toadstools.
You are a GREAT Dad😊🙏🏽
Great fun for the goats and you folks haha. Nice drone shot of the sunrise. We've been socked in with smoke haze for the last couple of weeks due to all the wildfires out here. See ya Monday.
"AMAZING SPOOL MAZE"! HOW FUN IS THIS!
5:30 I worked for the phone company for 30 years and we had all sizes of wire reels. I used to practice walking on them, (rolling them). I figured if I ever became a lumbethack, that would be a valuable skill... The bigger ones are a little easier. You have to be quick to walk the smaller ones, they're very reactive. The 3-4 foot diameter ones were the easiest for me.
Thought for sure you were going to stack them in a pyramid. We just picked up three goats yesterday and the fella we bought them from said his goats had jumped from some stacked pallets onto his lower barn roof, then they went all the way to the top. It was a tin roof - he said it sounded like the worst rainstorm ever - lol
The goats are looking great.
Another great video! God bless you guys☺
So glad I found this video to brighten my day ! Ty
They are having so much fun so cute
Great new toys for the Lovely ones. Idea1 make a frame from wood that would cradle a spool horizontal and rotate on its center hole. like a big YoYo. Keep up the best Vids.
Love those goats so cute they love to play so much .playland is a good one lol. 😃 🇨🇦🇨🇦
I have one big spool and painted it orange and drawled 2 eyes and a mouth on it , now it looks like a big pumpkin ..great for Halloween...
You got a Tundra. I’ve missed a few weeks I guess. You’ll love it. My whole family is a Toyota family. Love love love my tundra. I’ll never go back to any other truck.
I can't blame you there.
love all your videos al, i just bought 3 nigerian dwarf doelings, you inspired me.
Those goat are living a better life
Olivia reminds me of myself when I was her age. I was always hanging around my daddy. And like you Al he taught me about everything from taking care of animals to working on cars. I’m thankful for those days. I no longer have my dad.
I think the goats spools should be called their jungle gym. Loved the video and love the Lumnah family.
“THE SPOOL YARD”
Eric Allen the spool yard kids
The Home Spool Yard!
Good times in the goat yard at your place.
You and Olivia are doing and awesome and amazing job of making sure that you are keeping your goats very happy.
So cute how your daughter is involved and helps you when you do stuff!
Your animals are so well cared for.. Great video..
Hello wonderful family i hope this finds you well...fun time for the goats
What great parents you and your wife are to your daughter. God bless you guys
I've been scared of pigs and didn't want any on my property....but watching your pigs on your homestead has changed my mind.
I knew right away you were a fellow Boston area native! This is our dream as well and we are slowly making it happen. Just working on fixing up our house to buy the land we need (and near less people) to bring it to fruition! Totally subscribed!!
So cool
Goats just make you smile!
Might want to keep them away from the fence so they don’t try to jump out n get tangled up
Loved watching the girls play on their new playground! Have fun! Thank you Al for sharing.
That little girl has some skills!!!
The pigs maybe cold, but the chicken have their down jackets on every morning! LOL!❤🌅🌵
Buttercup has gorgeous colors!
I put planks from spool to spool and a few cinder blocks as boosters for shorter goats to the taller spools. When the ground is wet my wether stands on one block giving me "the look". Goats don't understand that I am not the omnipotent weather controller. That's above my paygrade.
Oh and my two sleep together on a spool except in rain.
so much fun!
Thank you AL for sharing your video homestead chicken farmer garden bye 👋 bye 👋 👨👩👧👸👕👓🐩🐔🐓🐥🐕🐖🐈🐐🌱🏡🎥👍👍👍
Suggestion. If you cover the tops with roofing shingles or something rough it will give them grip and keep their hooves trimmed. Also are you removing them when it ices?
tip them on their side in snow & ice...I could see the goats trying to balance on the spool & pushing them around the yard.
Goat hooves would shred composition shingles. The goats do not need additional grip. The ice won't bother the goats. They are wild animals and used to living in the ice. Goats are very agile animals.

HA HA HA HA Better than a trip to the county fair ! Olivia, the operator!
Funny goats and a great video. Have a Blessed Day!
Goat Woods..they really are having a great time with the spools....I had a spool as a table in my college room...they are so
useable!!!!Hugs from Kennebunk Maine
How cute! Careful you havent.given the goats a launching pad to jump the fence. Remember Weed Em and Reaps Tilly.
