I'm sorry, but there will be no video today. I've lost (my other) Dad. This one was my "spiritual" dad. My original farm, family, and life coach. I'm making a special video about what's going on and have seen the first draft, but it still needs a fair amount of adjustment. Should post Monday or Tuesday. The challenge of manhood will be worth the wait. In the meantime, if you'd be interested in more topics from me (related to manhood), check this out: tinyurl.com/3bekwtfd

I created this 30 min documentary about Jonah and I Bikepacking 100 miles through the wilderness. In the film I explore hard work, the father/son relationship and how good things get passed down generations. So it’s more than an adventure film but not about homesteading per se. I’m wondering where this film belongs?

We’re going down to three videos a week (Sun, Tue and Thur) through October as I get through my 40 day water fast. I’m slowing down and there’s not as many farm projects to be filmed. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Definitely filming my fasting journey and can’t wait to share that movie with you all.

No video today, turns out the mic wasn’t working and the vlog isn’t salvageable. See ya on Sunday :)

If someone gave you $100 but you had to spend it one of these two homesteading resources?

Homestead Builds: A book with step by step plans for building critical builds of the farm (coops, garden beds)

Abundance Plus: A year membership with inspirational and educational videos along with community and access to me.

I’ve got to turn this 529 pound carcass into steaks, burgers and roasts, but don’t know how!

So, I’m recruiting my good friend, Ben Hollar to show me how it’s done. He’s a magician, and I’ll be learning magic tricks!

I’m saving $700+ by opting out of the butchering fees.

BTW, I’m opening up a few, in person, spots and will be broadcasting this live to Abundance Plus. So, for as little as $97 you can save hundreds in processing fees. Mark your calendars for August 26th. Sign up, here (spots are very limited): www.abundanceplus.com/

Starting August 1st we’ll be doing what we’re calling Grow30 where we eat only what we’ve grown or sourced locally (within 100 miles).

No coffee, tea, bananas, peanut butter ect…

Who’s down to do the challenge with me?
