44 - Finding Tractor Plows & Clearing an Old Pig's Shelter!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 июн 2024
- As this video is released, we’re celebrating our first year of living in France. With a lot done already, there is still much to do, and we have work for years to come! Last week, Philippe cleared a path towards the old red tractor we found hidden between brambles and under a tree. This week is about finishing touches, such as tearing brambles away from tree branches, raking out scraps of metal he finds scattered around, and finding pieces that belonged to the tractor, like several plows. He continues along an old pathway used long ago to move from field to field, where he also removes an old pig's dwelling. Once that has all been taken out, it's muscle time to get it all uphill towards the van. It's a little race against the coming rain showers, so Philippe can finish up before it’s too late.
We end the week with a visit to Belgium, as Philippe’s brother Jean is getting married, and where Odin discovers the joy of dancing! Enjoy!

I have finally caught up. I have spent the last few days watching from the beginning. You have a lot of energy and have accomplished a lot it one year. Thank you for including Odin and his milestones that he reaches. Seeing him going from his rolling to crawling and finally to walking. I love to see him dance and sing, it is precious. Philippe and Anicia you have accomplished so much in just one year. I look forward to your Sunday vlogs. Thank you for bringing us along on your journey. Saskatchewan, Canada
Hey Ronnie! Thx for watching and supporting us! When we watch the first video and now we have cleaned and cleared up a whole lot 😎Odin is having a great time, he goes to the daycare now to learn the language and hopefully make friends 🙏👍
Everything is looking go awesome and so clear and cleaned up!!! Your little one is growing so fast. I hope you all enjoyed time off and had a wonderful time at your brothers wedding. I just love how your husband explains with such laughter and joy when he finds the rubbish in the yard. I truly enjoy your videos and so much looking forward every week for one . As always thank you for sharing. With lots of love from 🇺🇸 Cindy
Hey Cindy, yeah it is already looking way better and yes after a while one can only laugh with what was left behind 😂
Wow! It’s taken me 3 days to binge watch 44 episodes!!!! Beautiful presentation of a beautiful family’s journey. Well done Philippe and Anicia (and, of course Odin)!! Now I have to wait for Sundays like the rest of your loyal followers. Blessings to you all and may all your dreams come true. 🙏🏻👏🏻
Haha Thank you for watching and supporting us this way Maria! 🙏
Really enjoy watching your channel on RUclips, and look forward to the next posting on Sunday. The drone shot at the beginning of this video truly shows the amount of work that has been done on your property. I am always amazed watching the drone shots. I applaud you both on this undertaking, and your dedication to live a self-sustaining lifestyle. Sometimes it has to be frustratingly hard, but you are both young, strong, and have a can-do attitude. Keep up the good work!
Hey David thank you for these kind words and watching and supporting us! Highly appreciated!
I stumbled across your channel and also--like another follower--watched all 44 episodes! It took me over a week, though! I admire you all, Anicia, Phillipe and Odin, for following your dreams, selling it all and moving far from family and friends. I wish I could have been that brave when I was younger. It is fun watching the progress that is being made a little at a time. It is never boring! It even inspires me to go work on the yard and reorganize! Your place is already looking amazing! Thank you for letting us share your adventure. (I'm watching episodes over now and catching things I didn't see the first time.)
I'll see you again on Sunday!
Nicki--kindergarten teacher from Indianapolis, Indiana
Hey Nicki! Thx for these very kind words and support! The step was not easy and it is still not easy but we had to try and see if we could better ourself. Thank you for watching! 🙏👍
The farm looks better and better every time you put the new video up , must be very satisfying for you guys 😊
Thx Katarzyna, and yes it is satisfying to see less and less rubbish and more nature 😅🙏
I love that the chickens follow you around looking for freshly unearthed bugs ❤❤
Carrie everywhere i go they are there but it is a nice dynamic to have around the yard. The rooster is becoming bigger and he is starting to control the hens!
The world is a much better place for having you all in it! Your morals and work ethics are phenomenal. Thank you for allowing us to share in your French journey 😊😊. After watching your videos I find myself daydreaming about visiting your home with you and your sweet family.
Thx Tricia, in the future this might be possible with the plans we have 😉
I so enjoy your You Tube channel. You both should be commended for your determination and hard work towards making a good life. 👏👏👏
Thank you Terry!
Hello, nices old metal pieces.
The cutter-bar of a tractor side mower. Beautiful object
Plowshares are good decorative elements
The curved steel piece probably comes from a portcullis
Keep it for a future use.????.
The 3 rounded corrugated sheets, when assembled, are shelters for cattle, pigs, sheep, etc. A shelter possibility for the Fire Wood............. or a cabin for the Kid!!!!
Bon courage and stay safe.
The cutter-bar and plows we keep! The rest is a bit too far gone to use or display. We have kept many old hinges and locks we find!
The corrugated sheets i gave to Claude the mechanic he will recycle the metal. I will use solar panels as roof for storing our wood in the future.
You are creating a jewel of a property.
Thx Gus!
Thanks for sharing with us. I am always looking forward to your next video.
With pleasure George! Thx for watching!
Next purchase is a trailer for the mower to move those stones, save your back and legs.😊😊
Soon i have something very cool to help me with that Sam!! Just a little bit more patience it is worth it!
@DomaineSauvage we must think alike. Depending on your income, you might look into a small tractor that could plough rotovate, tow, even a small front bucket/forks.
Another great video. It is so satisfying to see you both clearing and caring for your land! Have you ever looked into a bush hog? One of those might help with the overall bramble scenario! Also, I love seeing Odin go through the developmental stages--now waking and using a few words. How cute!
Your dog is so gorgeous and it is beautifully indifferent towards the chickens. ❤
Hey Lina! Yeah from day one she was fine with the chickens roaming around!
I am always totally fascinated watching you all work on the farm.Its weird the way I relax and feel good after one of your videos.
Keep them coming!
👍👍👍
Hi Graeme, that is a good effect to have 😄
I’m loving your channel watching you care for your land & family Odin is such a joy
Thank you both for all your hard work in giving pleasure to so many 💜💙💙
Hey Sue thank you for watching and supporting us! Highly appreciated!
You are really given the little tractor a work out. Your land is looking better and better. Always a joy to watch ❤
Thx LL, yeah the mower is having a hard life now but hopefully this or next year i can give it an easier life!
Hi Anicia and Phillipe
My wife and I found your channel a few days ago and we’re binge watching them right now. We’re up to #32 and we love it!
Keep going, please! 🙏🏻
Hello Sudo, Thx for watching and supporting us! We will keep going 😉🙏
@@DomaineSauvage
We are very happy to!
We’re now about to watch #43, so almost caught up.
Could Philiipe tell me which type (style number) of Snickers work pants he uses?
I think they would suit me.
Thank you so much ✌🏻
@@sudo_nym If i am not mistaken 6214RuffWork. They are heavier pants to wear but they do last longer.
@@DomaineSauvage
Thank you 🙏🏻
I just binged watched all 44 episodes in two days!❤
Thx for watching and supporting us Mary!
Hi again every time you are working with your jcb or your lawnmower the chickens are some day going to end up in the pot it looks funny when you put the video on time-lapse I think it's time out for one of them thanks for a lovely video once again
You are welcome Thomas and yes the chickens sometimes get a bit too close.. but lets hope they stay alive! 😂🙏
Vos vidéos sont merveilleusement belles, elles respirent la joie de vivre. Bises de Belgique (région hutoise)
Merci Anne! 🙏
Those chickens follow you around! They like when you turn over the ground….. and they’re keeping you company!
They know where the food is 😂
I am commenting without watching this video first. I just discovered your channel this morning, and I am starting at the beginning. While we are experiencing a heat wave, this will be the perfect thing to binge on!
I watch a few chateau restoration channels, but I have to say that the scale of those buildings is sometimes a bit much. It's gratifying to watch something I could actually picture myself doing.
Looking forward to seeing more.
Best wishes from the USA. 👍
Hey, in the beginning we looked at little chateaux as well or ruins. But as you say they require a lot of work and money and afterwards you need to maintain them as well.
Hope you enjoy the rest of our videos!
I would like to tell you that you, are the hardest working young man I have ever seen. I enjoy your conversations with the camera( your audience ) very much. God bless you and your beautiful family.
Thank you for the compliments! 🙏
You are truly a one man amazing man. Mother Nature will surely thank you for all the cleaning up you are doing.Keep up the great work.I can’t wait to see you bring that old tractor out of hiding and who now’s what’s under and behind it. Odin is such a sweetheart. Have fun at the wedding you all need a break. Lots of love from Canada 🇨🇦
Hey Carmen, thx for the kind words!! Hopefully sooner then later we can free the tractor and bring it up!
Yep, crazy that they’ve just scattered the tractor pieces all over. Sending you on a scavenger hunt?🙄
When we had a bigger lawn, and a ride on mower, I always worried about running over rocks. I can’t imagine having to worry about so much crap all over the place 😬
We brought up our children with the knowledge that any kind of littering is wrong. They were always shocked when they saw neighbors and friends throw even a candy wrapper on the ground, in their own yard. So many seem to think the world is their trash can 😞
I’m sure your beautiful trees are breathing a sigh of relief with all that ivy and brambles removed 👍🏻
Hey Annelies, we were brought up not too litter as well so i find it an odd thing to do as well. I've hit a few rocks and some metal pieces it is a bit scary when you hit it 😅
Interesting to see what you keep finding as you clear, hope YOU keep finding the "booby traps" before your mower does. Glad your camera is fixed, missed seeing a video last week. Your place is going to be extraordinary. Acres of land for Odin to play and grow up on.
Hey Rick, the camera is still with Canon so we bought another body so we could keep on making videos. Ever since i drove on a big piece of metal i am extra careful because it broke the belt which was 80 euros... Odin will have a few good acres to play in with his friends! 😁
enjoyed tremendously again, thans for the finale, as the video went on i got woried you would not have included your beautiful son❤
You are welcome! Yes little Odin was a little bit less in the video this time around 😅❤
You have done an amazing job! Love your videos!
Thx Ann! 🙏
Still really enjoying watching your channel and the progress you are both making. Sorry you are having such horrible weather, which really isn’t normal for this time of year. I have even taken to checking the weather forecast for your area as I’m worried you might get disheartened. Even the weather in the uk has changed for the better so here’s hoping it does the same for you. X
Thank you Miriam, the weather is causing delays in the jobs we have to do but we cant change the weather 😅It is indeed out of the ordinary if we talk to the people from the village, first time in their lifetime it has been this bad. Next week should be a bit better but they have been saying this for months now 😂
It's seldom I watch a video with a constant smile on my face😉Very entertaining and love your beautiful use of the English language👌☺️👍♥️
Thank you Patricia, it is Anicia who puts everything together in a watchable video. I get to do the easy stuff 🙏❤
Your place is as wet and wild a our place here in the South of Ireland
Haha yes it has been and still is too wet for the time of year but not much we can do about it 😂
Your channel continues to be our favourite. We love your use of language and your comments are first class. The improvements you are constantly making are excellent and can only improve the land. Hats off to you both for the work you are doing 😊
I love watching their channel.
Thank you Hilary! 🙏
The land looks great 👍
Thx Miriam!
What a Beautiful Journey the 3 of You are on; Thank You for Sharing; it’s Just Beautiful!
Thank you Marie! 🙏
You give that mower a huge work load, but everything is looking beautiful
Yeah it is working hard but i do try to keep it maintained!
That little white chicken is with you again good to keep all the old tractor parts even for someone else
Hey Alan! Yeah the rooster is always there! He is growing up and behaving a bit more now 😅
Hello Happy Fathers day and happy Sunday.👏👍🎉💙🦋❤☺
Thank you Leona! I got a bird book for my fathers day to help me identify all the birds of prey flying over 🙏😄
@@DomaineSauvage Awesome👍
enjoy wedding and keep up the hard work its looking great
Thx Sharon, the wedding was great!
Joyeux Anniversaire to life on the farm and many thanks for letting us all share this journey with you.
No problem David! Thank you for watching and supporting is that way!!
Could you please put a circle on the French map where you’re located! I absolutely love your channel-I watch several & yours is the best. Information, work ethic, family, content & plans are why I keep coming back & also became a patreon. Nb it’s 2.30 AM here in central Victoria Australia 🇦🇺
Hey Kerry i will message you later on Patreon. If i forget send us a message there or put something in the general chat over there. I check it daily. 👍🙏
You are truly the perfect person to take care of the land I'm so impressed at what you have achieved I grew up on the land my dad was a farmer and he took care of his land just like you. A real proud farmer
Thx Judith!
Congratulations to welcoming a new sister in law! 🎉
Thx Janarixa!
Congratulations Anicia & Philippe 🎉
Thank you for sharing your experiences and crafting beautiful videos.
Amoungst other things, you are skilled cinematographers.
She all learns it by herself!!! We are proud❤
@@annickcheyns9243 😮🙌
Thx Daytona, every video we try to improve a bit!
Summer will mean lots of mowing ahead of you. The little tractor with the mower has been a real workhorse, but I see a bush hog in your future. I have enjoyed all of your videos. I’m watching from Birmingham, Alabama,USA.
Oh yes it is already growing very fast with all the rain and higher temperatures. Hopefully we can get the old tractor up and running so the mower can get the easy work!
I'm hoping you get the tractor going soon. Would be good to see it moving and useful for you. Shame your camera broke down. I hope it wasn't too costly to fix 😊
Hello Jean, the tractor would be amazing! The camera has been at Canon for two weeks now and no word yet.. it should be under warranty.. We have bought a second camera body now which wasn't the plan.
@DomaineSauvage what a shame you've had to buy another one, but needs, must, I suppose. The tractor should be fine if it turns over. They generally live a long time 🙂
On est champion du monde de la paperasse 😅😅😅 comme au foot en battant la Belgique 😅😅😅
Championnat du monde de paperasserie entre la Belgique et la France 😂
Thank you again for the vlog. As always interesting and so good to see the progress. Congratulations on the anniversary - Ist year - on taking over your farm. Beautiful Odin! You are both surely proud of him. Best regards. Phil🇬🇧
Hey Phil, yeah we are proud of Odin 🤗He is growing up very fast! He is already filling up my wheelbarrow when he sees me working 😍
You are both such hard workers, I hope the sun stays out now for an enjoyable summer☀
Thx! Mid June and the fire inside is burning 😂
@@DomaineSauvage we’re holidaying in France now, luckily got some sun in Brittany last week, and it looks like things are warming up from next week 😄
We stand United 👍
Weer super gedaan!! Veel werk verricht broertje! Helemaal top! Ben echt benieuwd deze zomer als we komen.. zal weer zo veranderd zijn!! ❤
Ja Anicia heeft weer haar best gedaan 👍
That place is so cool.
Thank you perfectscotty!
My priority would be the tractor and sickle bar working. There is so much land to clear, your equipment needs to match the task, even with maintenance, the lawn tractor doesn’t match the work. Just my opinion. Nice work.
Absolutely right, but i cant move the tractor up with all this rain.. still too wet! Until then the mower will have to suffer a little bit more but its retirement will be great 😂
@@DomaineSauvage wish I could could give you some labor from Colorado.
Have you considered getting a metal detector to help you protect your mower?
It would be handy but we got to watch our budget.
1st off the block!!!!
Hahaha well done LL 🙏😂❤
Vive la France et soyez heureux chez nous
Merci Sylviane! 🙏
Put a rubber bungee cord on the handle of your chopping machine, that will keep it snug but be able to pull it up if necessary! Just a thought. Love you and your lovely family and your thoughtfulness of the planet. You are a hard worker and it is really showing in your property. Happy Fathers Day!🌈💓🌻🐓
Thank you Patricia! 🙏
I guess most places you can sell old iron and get a little amount of money for your efforts that way, and metal can be recyled.
Hey David, i just bring it down to Claude and he will sell it. He has helped me with many other things already!
Ich freue mich immer auf eure Videos. Toller Schnitt und schöne Perspektiven.
P.S. Der Rasenmäher hat bei euch kein leichtes Leben 😅
Vielen Dank für die Komplimente! Der Mäher wird sich in ein einfacheres Leben zurückziehen, sobald wir den Traktor zum Laufen gebracht haben.
For the size of property you will be beating this little garden tractor to death in no time. For you one of those small diesel tractors with the option of various attachments would be a good and long term investment! I own a fair size “garden”, so I know what I’m talking about 😉 ! My reasoning is, you could become much sooner productive with your farm and start generating income.
Hello, the mower is working hard but hopefully we can get the red tractor going and then it can retire to an easier life 🙏
@@DomaineSauvage Thank you for replying! My question with the old tractor is, if there are attachments available, like front end loader, mowing deck and most important a rototiller? Those old tractors used to have mowers, like the old one you found, which are only designed for hay. Plus with your terrain a 4-wheel drive might come in very handy too. Btw I run a zero turn mid size lawn mower cutting about 1 3/4 ha lawn. I'm lucky to have retired neighbours with tractors and a farmer with heavy equipment to mow my hay. But many times I wish I had one of those little tractors myself. I live in Northern Canada where summers are short and things need to be done quickly. However, I grew up on a farm in Europe. Your advantage is being young, but for successful farming you eventually will need the proper tools. All that said, I very much enjoy your RUclips videos, well done! I wish you and your family all the fortune you need to succeed and live a happy live! Greetings from Canada
I have found a second hand front end loader that would fit it and modern equipment can be hung from the back. For its day when it was released it was quite a modern tractor.
We do need proper tools and we already have a ton but our budget is not endless at the moment so sometimes we will do with what we have even when it is not entirely suitable for the job. But hopefully in the future we can expand! Thx far watching and supporting! 🙏👍
@@DomaineSauvage Great to hear, that this old tractor will be useful to you, I truly expected otherwise. Old to me means about 20hp and no PTO ;) All my best wishes to you and your family!
Merci beaucoup, from Michigan.
With pleasure!
Another great video Philippe. Not finished watching it yet, but you could use the metal as a compost bin?
Glad your views are going on.
Great channel
Hey Rob! Now that would have been an excellent idea but Claude the mechanic in our village has already cut them into pieces 😂
The channel is indeed growing which is good with the amount of work Anicia puts in! You know how it goes to edit everything and make something watchable out of it!
@@DomaineSauvage yeah deffo Anicia is doing a great job.
Lisa edited her first video today which will go out tomorrow.
Keep well buddy
We move 6 year's ago to the south of France. And yes the paper work is challenging. But my dutch pasport was the crown. I payed 180 euro for it. My husbands pasport we wil get in the Netherlands. There it wil be 108 euro. 😊😊
We haven't had to renew our passports yet, the hurdle we have now is making sure the paperwork for our business is right 😅
I want to go to where my family is from, Italy.
Italy is a beautiful country!
Leuke vlog weer. Van al dat oude ijzer dat je inlevert kun je straks nieuwe maaier kopen denk ik. Succes
Hahaha Jan, ik geef het metaal weg aan Claude de mechanieker van het dorp, hij heeft me al meerdere malen met vanalles geholpen 😎
🎉
Thx Roos!
🥰
❤🙏
Your home is looking wonderful keep up the great work
Do you no longer have your cat?
Thx! Lucie is still with us 😉🤗She doesn't go far from the house, we will get her on camera one of these days 😎
1thing I can say about my country,we denied no1
Can you sell the metal to a scrap yard or metal recycling centre?
Hey Kindle, we give it to Claude the mechanic from the village! He has helped me many times so anything small we can give back we do!
how are you able to stay in France?
When you live in the EU, you are free to go and live where you want 🙏👍
Hoe stellen jullie het met de moestuin? Curieus!
Jeroen, binnenkort zullen we een update doen maar het gaat voorlopig goed! De aardappelen groeien heel goed en de tomaten etc gaan morgen de grond in. Beetje later dan normaal 😉
@@DomaineSauvage komt goed! Als het weer wat meewil! Let op voor het aardappelvirus met het natte weer!
