Tulare County California removed over 3000 acres of Walnuts. We were only given 12 cents a lb for in shell walnuts. Black walnuts are not very good meat walnuts, they usually only use those for the root and are grafted so it may not be a black walnut?? Happy for your move 😁
Congrats on the new home! 100 times YES on vlogging on your new adventures! A new chapter in life might call for a new channel or name! Either way, I am here for it!
I've been wondering for about a year where your channel was going. You've obviously been in a transition for a while. I think I would enjoy some 'back to the land' style vlogs but your brand is becoming increasingly disconnected from your content. Farm Connect however sounds like a dating app for farmers.
As if you guys are not entertaining enough, so excited for the move to a farm. Welcome back to the Midwest from neighboring Illinois! Wishing you guys the best! Check out the Strong sisters. They also moved to a farm in Michigan.
Welcome to Michigan! So excited for your next journey. We homestead on acreage in mid/northern Michigan and it’s the best way of life. Been doing it for about 10 years now and you won’t regret it. It’s the best way to raise kids too so they can see where their food comes from, get closer to nature, etc. Good luck!
I've been following you two since you started this channel, happy for your life evolution and changes. Looking forward to seeing your new home and new adventures.
Happy to hear about your new plans. I learnt a lot from you guys when i was doing full Keto. I do low carb now, and watch the count. Life is all about accepting changes whether it is what we eat, where we live, etc. Etc. Glad that Megha is doing well and feeling better. Country life is great. Good luck.
I LOVE THE NEW DIRECTION YOUR CHANEL IS GOING. I LOVE WATCHING HOMESTEAD VIDEOS. I THINK WITH COVID ALOT OF PEOPLE CHANGED VAULUES AND APPRICATED GARDENS ETC. DONT KNOW IF THAT MADE SENSE BUT LOVE AND EXCITED TO SEE YOUR NEW HOUSE AND GARDEN AND EVERYTHING THAT IS COMING. HAVE A SAFE MOVE AND CANT WAIT TO SEE THE NEXT VIDEO.
congrats on the new move. i have followed you all since before the hose and the babies. i love watching you all grow and move on to new adventures. Watching your family grow and change in such amazing ways
Congratulations!!! Megha & Matt, Theo &. Felix- Farmers w/ Keto…. My Best…. But Please keep videos coming. My Love to you Wonderful people. Stay Safe.. You guys kept me sane during past 6 years. 😊. Again Congratulations.
Homesteading is rewarding. I own a house in a small city and I grow tons of food. I grow things I use- tomatoes, onions, peppers, garlic, potatoes, carrots, lettuce, greens, green beans and herbs. Food preservation is great. I can , dehydrate and freeze. I enjoy it very much. I inherited my grandpas home with 10 acres. I have added more gardening and chickens. Not sure if I will ever do more animals but one can dream. I live in central/southern Illinois. Good luck in Michigan.
I’m down for the farm Content. A lot of people are moving into homesteading it’s getting to be a popular topic. My parents bought 13 acres and are giving me 5 acres in one year. I’m going to be starting from the ground up also.
Can't wait to see yet its on a farm! First tip...get chickens! They control the ticks and other bugs, you'll have healthy eggs and learn to butcher in the future! Good luck on the move and have fun!!
I’ve been watching for a long time… me being stage 4 kidney failure… I’m really interested in what you eat Megha … never thought about it till now that you could share you knowledge of what to eat to get my GFR higher and stay away from dialysis… I love soups would have liked to see how you made your soup on this video … love your fur baby and your children is one of the best parts of your videos… ❤ to all
Congrats on the new house I can’t wait to see it and watch you guys grow in it! I was thinking about when I first followed you before you had kids and how your content has changed it’s great to see you doing new things, I started following for the keto and stayed for the family keep it coming and best wishes with your move!
I am dealing with symptoms similar to what Megha was diagnosed with (IC) and would love to know more about a bladder friendly menu. We also got into permaculture and growing our own food, having chickens, etc. years ago and it's definitely a learning curve. The best advice I have is to grow the things you will eat. Setting up a water capture system with hoses and timers will be your best friend! I will watch you succeed in your new adventures, blessings over your precious family!
I'm so happy to see Megha is doing so well. I want to thank guys for starting me on my keto journey in 2017. I'm still on it 😊. I will follow you forever no matter what. Love you guys. Many Blessings to you and family. ♥️♥️♥️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Keep the Walnut tree and harvest every year. As you said, they are good for you. As long as your garden is at least 80 feet away from it you're fine. My step dads garden was probably only about 30 feet away and he always had great production.
Wow...what finally woke you two up?...there are still Soooo many people sound asleep and clueless to the end of the age of Grace ...have you come clean with Jesus? and ask Him for forgiveness that only He can grant...He is returning soon,but not for sin, He already made a way and dealt with our sin! When He returns soon, it’ll be for Judgement!
Your are drinking LMNT that is high in sodium but have to eat garbanzo beans low in sodium be because of your kidneys. 😮 I feel like singing 🎶 the sesame street song "one of these things is not like the other, one of these things just does belong" 🎶. You do you boo.
I love this!! I've been keto for years and followed your guys as well for years. However I am a huge naturalist. I'm so excited for your journey. I wish I could share pictures here. My granddaughter broke a deer down with me last year.. it was so wonderful that she shares my interest.
WOW...I guess I haven't seen you guys in a while...not keto anymore 😢..we went from keto following you for AGES then we became carnivore...loving it!! Can't wait to see your new place..
Omg, Theo comforting Fifi was the cutest thing! He was so sweet & loving with him. 🥰 They've grown so much since I last watched a video. I'm so excited for the move & farmland for yall! Could yall possibly bring back the dinner & true crime series soon? I loved that so much lol.
how exciting. can't wait for the next chapter hope you guys share the beginning stages. so now Matt will you guys be closer to your parents? meghas brother is still in Atlanta?
A channel for you to check out on RUclips would be Hollar Homestead. Meg cans most of the food they grow and Ben can teach you a ton about permaculture, food forests, gardening, animal husbandry, and composting. In addition, she makes natural soaps and cosmetics and he makes knives. They have four boys and a little girl. I can guarantee you'll love their channel. I've been following you guys since before you moved to Atlanta and you were the go-to channel for me when I was starting keto. I still make your Egg Roll in a Bowl, Breakfast Casserole, keep a container of your 1 minute bread mix in the refrigerator, and use your recipe to make tortillas. It'll be 6 years on keto for me and I have no plans to stop. I've been watching homesteading channels about as long as I've on keto. Good for you that you have bought a farm in Michigan!!
I can totally tell Matt is excited to move back to Michigan. I was cracking up over the whole hunting, "I just shot a gun for the first time like last week." 😂
I can't wait so excited so proud of especially am interested in the deer hunting my husband's a hunter and you will benefit from that and help others we help at least two or three families every year with deer!!!!!! The boys are so cute are y'all going to homeschool I haven't listened to the whole video yet but I want to get my thoughts in as to what you'll be doing and are you near somewhere where you'll be taking him to daycare and all that stuff love you guys!!;!
Love following the journey ❤️ please do keep us in the loop on how things are going. I've been following you since the beginning. Life is life, glad you are rolling with it.
Congratulations on the big move!! Can't wait to see what you grow on the farm. I like deer jerky maybe you can make some to sell? The boys are so adorable!! Felix with his animal sounds😊🐄🐵💖
If its a black walnut tree they are so hard to crack! I mean run over with a car and won't crack, and the shell around it when tiles like black ink! That's probably the poison you talked about. And they are a real pain with a lawn mower! My friend would pay her grandkids a Nickel for each one they picked up to be able to mow the grass. But they have deep roots and won't fall over in storms like other trees and the shade from them are Amazing!! 20 ° drop in temps in summer under them. We had a picnic table under one. Have fun!! I love a farm!
So! How did Felix get so big all of the sudden? You have two adorable boys! Congratulations on your new home. I love Michigan and I hope you will, too. My only downfall with the State is that there can be a lot of prejudice. Otherwise, most people are welcoming and good. I lived there for fifteen years, moved to the San Fran Bay area, but plan to go back within the next year or so. I actually miss the winters. We ate a lot of deer. One thing I can tell you is that laying bacon across any roast you make helps! It's not the most fatty meat in the world. And also, neck roasts slow cooked are great. I don't know how many people eat those, but I loved them. Best wishes to all of you with the move! One more thing is that a hot tub is a great investment for winter months. I had one and there was nothing like it at night in winter when the snow was falling!
Good for y'all!! Better to be self reliant in today's society. Get Chickens ❤❤❤ if you handle them a lot as babies and right on they will be friendly with the kids, even roosters "can be sweet" trust me when I say you don't want a mean rooster, lol. We have raised chickens just for meat and separate ones just for eggs. Production reds have been the best all around out of all our different breeds. Best of luck on your new adventure!
I’m so looking forward to this new adventure. I grew up in Michigan (have lived in Mi…Ca…AL…back to Mi…now in Florida). Can’t wait to see the boys’ reaction to cold and snow. This is a wonderful reinvention of your channel. Will be watching…❤️
Great choice! You have struggled for a while and this change seemed perfect. Michigan is amazing. We spend lots of time in the upper peninsula and it’s gorgeous
Can't wait to see the new house and watch the new homesteading journey. Megah it's so good to see you feeling better.

I don't care what you guys eat or what you name your channel, I'll always be here for the cute babies and the kitty cameos
Ditto!
Yep 😊
I'm here for the opposite.
Samsies, I actually would like to learn about growing veggies
Yeah love the kitty cameos ❤
Congrats on the new home! 100 times YES on vlogging on your new adventures! A new chapter in life might call for a new channel or name! Either way, I am here for it!
The cat entered the video shot like Kramer entered a room. 😂😂
I love how you never stop growing as a family! You're living your real life, not a life for the camera! I'm excited to follow your new chapter!
Why not just, MEGHA & MATT Connect.
We all know it's you guys when we see the names❤
I'm so happy you're feeling better Megha, complete turnaround and so happy for you guys. Seems back to your regular self. ❤❤❤

I personally have zero desire to see you kill or butcher a deer

Come on leave the 50 yr old walnut tree!! You can trim branches... and plant elsewhere...
I second this comment!!! 🌳 it's 50 YEARS OLD!
I third this comment I agree
No f'ing way! Mine is older than that, HUGE and a f'ing mess every year! I cannot afford to get it cut down, but hate the tree.
You can shoot the deer just get the hunting license! Get rid if the tree. You can't grow many vegetables, so your garden would be a dud!
Nooooo keep the tree 🌳
Ewww the cat on the table
So good to see a new video from you both! Congratulations on the new place and good luck! The boys are so dang adorable!
Gotta say , seeing you say wish you had more kids and looking ready for a nap brings back memories.. Small bunch of farm animals will keep you busy .
yes...black walnut wood has always been very very expensive...enjoy the tree for at least a year...you may want to keep it....
Congratulations!!! Megha & Matt, Theo &. Felix- Farmers w/ Keto…. My Best…. But Please keep videos coming. My Love to you Wonderful people. Stay Safe.. You guys kept me sane during past 6 years.
😊. Again Congratulations.
Black walnut hulls are anti parasitic. Perhaps you could get someone to harvest them for you or sell them to a company that produces the extract.
Homesteading is rewarding. I own a house in a small city and I grow tons of food. I grow things I use- tomatoes, onions, peppers, garlic, potatoes, carrots, lettuce, greens, green beans and herbs. Food preservation is great. I can , dehydrate and freeze. I enjoy it very much. I inherited my grandpas home with 10 acres. I have added more gardening and chickens. Not sure if I will ever do more animals but one can dream. I live in central/southern Illinois. Good luck in Michigan.
Absolutely love the kitten drifting into the grocery haul to see what’s up. 😂
Yeah, kitten kneading and loving on the corn husk did steal the show.
Yes! Love the cat exploring the groceries with us! Ha.
Check out 5:38 😂
I’m down for the farm Content. A lot of people are moving into homesteading it’s getting to be a popular topic. My parents bought 13 acres and are giving me 5 acres in one year. I’m going to be starting from the ground up also.
So glad you can stand up straight, looking like your feeling well. I love everything you post. Your family is awesome.
Will you be changing the name of your channel?
Can't wait to see yet its on a farm! First tip...get chickens! They control the ticks and other bugs, you'll have healthy eggs and learn to butcher in the future! Good luck on the move and have fun!!
Where's Miley?

Congratulations on the new home and property! It will be so good for the boys to have room to run! Think of all the possibilities!

Have you watched Sally K Norton? Talks about oxylates and the kidneys
Awww this is awesome!! Can't wait to see where this channel goes!! So exciting. Hope u make more videos of ur new adventure
Congrats on the new house I can’t wait to see it and watch you guys grow in it!
I was thinking about when I first followed you before you had kids and how your content has changed it’s great to see you doing new things, I started following for the keto and stayed for the family keep it coming and best wishes with your move!
Wish LMNT had less sodium and more potassium! Congrats on your new home 🏡 💗 ❤️ 💕!

If you need any about hunting or breaking down your own meat, let me know. We've been Processing are on me for years.
Congrats! We have a 9 acre farm in Hawaii and we just love rural living!
I'm so happy to see Megha is doing so well. I want to thank guys for starting me on my keto journey in 2017. I'm still on it 😊. I will follow you forever no matter what. Love you guys. Many Blessings to you and family. ♥️♥️♥️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

You’ll have to check out That 1870s Homestead, they’re in Michigan!
Excited for you to come to Michigan! Hope the kids will enjoy the snow.
Wow...what finally woke you two up?...there are still Soooo many people sound asleep and clueless to the end of the age of Grace ...have you come clean with Jesus? and ask Him for forgiveness that only He can grant...He is returning soon,but not for sin, He already made a way and dealt with our sin!

I haven’t seen a video from you guys in forever! Glad to see you all doing well and so excited to follow the new adventures on the farm❤
A good. Channel I enjoy on homesteading is "roots and refuge" they do everything. They are very good teachers as well
WOW...I guess I haven't seen you guys in a while...not keto anymore 😢..we went from keto following you for AGES then we became carnivore...loving it!! Can't wait to see your new place..
I can totally see y’all homesteading. But is there a Trader Joe’s up there?
Omg, Theo comforting Fifi was the cutest thing! He was so sweet & loving with him. 🥰
They've grown so much since I last watched a video.
I'm so excited for the move & farmland for yall!
Could yall possibly bring back the dinner & true crime series soon? I loved that so much lol.
You can just buy deer meat all cut up and ready to put in your freezer. I couldnt pull the trigger. Deer are so pretty.
how exciting. can't wait for the next chapter hope you guys share the beginning stages. so now Matt will you guys be closer to your parents? meghas brother is still in Atlanta?
Black Walnut is a valuable wood. We had several on our land and debated whether to sell them for the wood or not.
Get the book HUNTING DEER FOR FOOD it’s great for total beginners that want to learn to feed their families.
Wow both of the babies look just like daddy 😂😂😂😂
Megha Matt where are ur thanks or Super buy button 2 help u with ur channel 🤙🍍🏝 6:28
Yay so happy for you guys! Can’t wait to see the vlogs ❤
The bond between the boys is amazing!! I’m a boy mom too and it’s everything!!!!🥹❤ love it!!

What ever happened to Miley??
Matt, I’ll buy your sauna if they don’t want it. I live in the atlanta area
So obviously no more keto right???
This was one video I did not expect.
I think I’m even more surprised than the one where you quit keto.
I love that you guys are doing this farm thing! Can’t wait to see how it all turns out. Hope the best for your family.
Whoa that AR comment, killing deer and cutting down a 50 year old walnut tree really turned my stomach on you Matt!
I can totally tell Matt is excited to move back to Michigan. I was cracking up over the whole hunting, "I just shot a gun for the first time like last week." 😂
lol came for the Keto stayed for my fav family, please take us along the farm life!
I can't wait so excited so proud of especially am interested in the deer hunting my husband's a hunter and you will benefit from that and help others we help at least two or three families every year with deer!!!!!!

Where is Miley?
Milan? South of Ann Arbor
Very excited to see your new home!!! The boys are getty SO big...looking foward to watching your new journey!
Not sure that an outdoor sauna will be terribly energy efficient in the winter in Michigan. Will cost you a fortune to operate.
Homegrown and hand gathered
I’m so excited for you and the family! If I was younger, I would have a farm. That soup looks delicious!
I'd start with planting the crops that take years to really flourish and fruit trees!
Good luck!!!
them winters in Michigan!!!! Congrats
Congratulations on the big move!! Can't wait to see what you grow on the farm. I like deer jerky maybe you can make some to sell? The boys are so adorable!! Felix with his animal sounds😊🐄🐵💖
Congrats! MiGardener is a great source for learning how to grow food.
Good seeds too.
Watch the kids with ticks with the deer, just check them often
Congrats, were grass-fed beef farmers in WI. (we have 200 acres). My sons hunt deer on our property(we try to get 7 a yr.).
Are you no longer raising beef?
@@delladearest2511 we still raise beef . We are having issues with booking processing (their 1yr+ out)
@@TRuth.T so many people need beef to maintain their carnivore and keto health!
Wonderful! Oh the boys are going to love it!
Yes, lots of farm vlogging please! Also, I must have missed it - but where are Miley and Julius??
Where is your dog??
Wow, So exciting!
We are your Utube FAMILY!❤ celebration FOR MI
Hope we get to move with you guys! Love the day to days.
So excited for you all the move sounds good. Growing your own food will be such fun . Boys are getting so big
That’s Great Moving🌾👨🌾 🤙🍍🏝 1:38
Congratulations guys! I can't wait for this new chapter in Michigan. Hubby and I are looking to move to Michigan in the next 5 years.
If its a black walnut tree they are so hard to crack! I mean run over with a car and won't crack, and the shell around it when tiles like black ink! That's probably the poison you talked about. And they are a real pain with a lawn mower! My friend would pay her grandkids a Nickel for each one they picked up to be able to mow the grass. But they have deep roots and won't fall over in storms like other trees and the shade from them are Amazing!! 20 ° drop in temps in summer under them. We had a picnic table under one. Have fun!! I love a farm!
Hopefully there is whole foods close to your new home!
So! How did Felix get so big all of the sudden? You have two adorable boys!
Congratulations on your new home. I love Michigan and I hope you will, too. My only downfall with the State is that there can be a lot of prejudice. Otherwise, most people are welcoming and good. I lived there for fifteen years, moved to the San Fran Bay area, but plan to go back within the next year or so. I actually miss the winters.
We ate a lot of deer. One thing I can tell you is that laying bacon across any roast you make helps! It's not the most fatty meat in the world. And also, neck roasts slow cooked are great. I don't know how many people eat those, but I loved them.
Best wishes to all of you with the move! One more thing is that a hot tub is a great investment for winter months. I had one and there was nothing like it at night in winter when the snow was falling!
Congrats on the new home & land! Looking forward to seeing all your adventures. Ps....LOVE THAT KITTY CAT!
The absolute need for band-aids when you're a kid is truly universal.
Good for y'all!! Better to be self reliant in today's society. Get Chickens ❤❤❤ if you handle them a lot as babies and right on they will be friendly with the kids, even roosters "can be sweet" trust me when I say you don't want a mean rooster, lol. We have raised chickens just for meat and separate ones just for eggs. Production reds have been the best all around out of all our different breeds. Best of luck on your new adventure!
So who’s this new cat and where is Miley? Hope she’s ok and you just got a new kitten to boost her activity and give her a companion.
I’m so looking forward to this new adventure. I grew up in Michigan (have lived in Mi…Ca…AL…back to Mi…now in Florida). Can’t wait to see the boys’ reaction to cold and snow. This is a wonderful reinvention of your channel. Will be watching…❤️
Great choice! You have struggled for a while and this change seemed perfect. Michigan is amazing. We spend lots of time in the upper peninsula and it’s gorgeous
More kitten cameos please!! Lol. That was super cute and funny, I just lossed my sweet baby and this made me smile
Interesting that you are jumping on the homesteading bandwagon. Probably a good choice.
