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!

Your construction is impressive. It's better than Amish made. It's Lumnah made!
Bore small holes in the deck to let any grass seeds in the hay fall through , they will add to your pasture in the spring
Al. Watching you mix up the goats food was like watching an artist at work. And your goat feeder, another masterpiece. Serious man. You are one with your farm. So cool. All the best brother.
How soon before little P poops in the tray and they all start avoiding it and complaining LOL
Did you look inside the coop for yesterday's eggs? You had left the nest box door down. That is a schnazzy hay feeder! LOL, Little P is always in the feeder! Blessings to all.
I do not blame Gina for not wanting to do roof work, I have yet to finish the video of You finishing the roof on the barn Al, Heights are just not on my list! SCARY.!! But I did learn that their are magnet boots for aluminum or steel roof workers, I found that interesting..Haha, incriminating goat prints everywhere, too funny.!!. Great job on the feeder!! You know, I can not tell you how many homesteading channels I subscribe to..There are Many!..By far, I really enjoy your videos the best..Even on days that don't don't well (i.e. broken counter, Hot dogs) Your family bring so much Joy no matter what..Thank you for sharing!!
Little man is doing great with the other boys! Loving those shelves in the feed room and the awesome new hay feeder. Y'all are a great team! 3, 6, 9, This life we live is so sublime. Be Blessed!
IShallNot BeSilent ive missed some videos, why was little man moved? 🧐
@@nicoleist - They moved him over with the other boy's so while one is on a date with one of the girls, the other has a friend to help keep them from yelling out so much while separated. I don't think it's called yelling but I don't know what it is called lol.
IShallNot BeSilent ahh ok! thank you for the reply!! ❤️
Good morning Lumnah Acres Thank God we. Are little cooler 57* wishing it was like this Most Of the time The new feeder looks great 👍
Hey Al and Gina, we woke up today at -2 feels like -10 17 Jan and later today in for a winter snow storm into Saturday, with winds 40 to 50 miles per hour. I sure hope it by passes us again. Nice goat feeder
Lumnah acres, single handedly keeping 2x4 manufacturers in business! I LOVE IT! Awesome job to both of you! I may have to copy this one 😂
Feed your chickens some greens and they will lay more eggs for your winter feasts! Good stuff folks!
I'm in Minnesota and we just had freezing temps in the negative teens and now we are in for a nasty snow storm predicting up to a foot of snow over the next 24-36 hrs. Buckle down and get ready for it cause it's heading your way.
Love that you have a big garage door to pull it through. Looks good friends.
That's a sharp feeder you guys! 13° here finally. Our ground was not freezing and giving me headaches. Doc says I'm allergic to the bacteria in the mud. I didn't realize when moving to the valley that they don't freeze up like on top😜. Have a good weekend we might even get some snow! JO JO IN VT 💕☃ 😊
You guys are awesome. I love watching you create and build things. I’m an older lady, who do not do any like that at all, I love watching you. You do amazing work and end up with amazing creations. Keep on building, and I will keep on watching. 🔨🔧🧰🛠⚙️🔩🚪🤗
Gina, your french braids look beautiful! And your BEST DIY portable HAY FEEDER w/ ROOF is looking great!
Feeder looks great, good job Al and Gina. Have a blessed day.
Good mauhnin Lumnah Acres! Hay feeder is a big success! The girls love it! Can’t wait to see what you are up to next! Oh the anticipation! Lol! Stay warm and take care!
Hope is pure perfume to the bucks. She is so sweet! I discovered you due to her. I’m so glad I did!!! I just love you all!
Your farm is beautiful....thank you for sharing.
This is nice! The grain can fall down below the hay. We live in Gainestown Alabama and it is 73 here today, low tonight is 55. It is suppose to be in the 30 Sunday night, and high of 60! That is cold to us! I can't imagine having any weather below 20
Am addicted to your channel!
Ha! I'm with you Gina, no high places. You stay on the ground and cut boards and pass them up. Great job both of you on the hay feeder.
It’s so refreshing to see happy people and happy animals. You’ve probably been asked this question 100 times what do you do with your goats
The new hay feeder looks great.
Thanks for sharing your projects with us!
Gooood morning Al. I got up at 04:00 to watch Lumnah Acres show, so coffee is in hand Sir and it’s time to do this. Have a blessed day.
Oh that littl'p jumping right in the feeder!😀
Looks totally awesome. A family that works to together prays together. Will always be together. All Gina Olivia and all your anmals. Thanks for sharing.
Great feeder think about adding gutters for a rain water catch system on one end.
Excellent idea! Easy to do for any roofed structure really.
Great Hay Feeder, especially since it was all just in your head. You and your wife did a great job. Stay warm. We have a cold snap coming this weekend here in Florida, not suppose to get above 50. ;)
The video quality are getting better, perfect on my tv.
A polar blast. The coldest place on earth for the past few days was Edmonton Alberta. Over minus 50 degrees Celsius. Compared to that its spring time by you there. Lol
We have snow/ice/rain coming in this weekend. It will be cold but don't think it is supposed to be a Polar Vortex. Hate those! We've actually had a mild winter so far, even though we have gotten some snow, it hasn't lasted because we warm up. Been in the 50's and some 60's, almost 70! So I can't complain to much about the temps. I do hate the back and forth in temps though, the body just can't adjust. The hay feeder looks great and it looks like the kids love it too. Well done you two!
The hay feeder turned out awesome!!
Another good job but you always do good work you and them Mrs. that’s why I keep watching so keep up the good work work God bless
I love that feeder. I want to build one when I get my goats so I will be watching the videos a thousand times. Thanks, Al and Gina
If you had a few coffee cans with lids, you could pre make all the morning feed for the goats. Could make a weeks worth in a few minutes. Would save you time each morning.
I love watching you and Gina work together. You make the most fanciest looking farm equipment!
You have the 3 amigos and we have the 3 stooges!
Arms Family Homestead howdy Daniel!
Love when Al is shown pulling his latest project out of the barn Makes me think of the film about a Time Machine being towed. I am also married to a cabinet maker ,so know the feeling of pride and accomplishment.
loved them movies too :)
hello, you can screw some vertical bars into the goat controller to prevent the goats from entering the feeding compartment as one of the goats did.
If you add an abrasive texture to an area that the goats frequent, it will promote healther hoofs. The ramp would be a good spot.
you are very fortunate to have a mate that is cute as a speckled puppy but does not let it go to her head. she is at your side on your projects and not hold up in the house acting like the world cannot go on without her.......g
I think it's high time that 9 got some appreciation! Eight get's all of the love while Nine is left out in the cold. Good for you!!
It's nice to see Gina just driving the screws in instead of using multiple trigger pulls. This seemed to have happened during this video. Now she's really using it as a screw driver!
Al you sure are an awesome builder. I don’t think there is anything you can’t build. Love the goat feeder. Can’t wait to see what Gina has up her sleeve with the pallet.
Al, you have a full-time job just building things on the farm! As I watched I was thinking about my Dad, who could build or repair whatever was needed (house, boat, parts for old cars, etc). Then I thought about some of the guys I've had in my life, who couldn't screw in a lightbulb without a team to help them...and my late husband, who not only had all kinds of impressive tools, but knew how to use them. On top of that, there were no complaints when I asked him to fix or create something for me...he would immediately go to his workshop, whistling happily as he accomplished the task. Those of us who possess no mechanical skills whatsoever appreciate those who do.
Your homestead looks nice. You are truly an artisan and you have a talented wife. Your building projects are awesome besides functional.
Here in Michigan we are supposed to get the cold and snow this weekend. The feeder looks great Al and Gina. God Bless.
They said that last weekend & we got next to nothing in the middle of the Mitt. Mostly rain ;)
They are telling us to expect 3 to 5 inches of snow here in NW Ohio.
we're expecting up to 60 mph winds today in Colorado !!!
I’m sitting here in western Illinois under 2 in of snow topped by 1/8 in of ice and it’s still misty/raining. Waiting on the polar vortex to drop temps to near zero. 😕 But I so look forward to watching your family and especially your goats(Hope’s my favorite).
Looks like a saver of hay. Nice job.
Goat feeder looks great!
New goat feeder looks great, but Al when are you going to start Gina's deck?
We love your videos and watch them from start to end. You have inspired us to become content creators! Till your next video, take care.
congrats on your new adventure!
According to my mathematical analysis you have used 487 screws to build that feeder lol. That workbench has really helped. 😁🇨🇦 Cheers
Looks like there's room to add another panel to each side of the boys' feeder's roof so they don't get wet. 💜🌞🌵
Exactly what I thought too.
they need to get wet because they stink ... heh
Zippy TheChicken the girls love that aroma..... 🐐
Love your goat herd. Can't wait to see the new babies this year.
Good morning Al, temps in Cleveland 25 feels like 16 cold cold..... " Sheila "
Yes we have one coming, and the bad news is that it's been so warm that I will have some pears beginning to bloom when it gets here. They are forecasting 26F. If it's no colder than that the flowers and advanced buds just might be OK.
thats a bummer!
@@LumnahAcres it is, but good news is that these particular two pear trees are very old, probably seedling but very good, and while they are so low chill that they often bloom too early, somehow they don't usually get yacked. But we only go below 26F about every other year. That's the magic temperature where I have to pick the citrus that's still on my trees or loose it.
Thanks for the idea. I need to make one for my goats and sheep
That is a really nice hay feeder. Should save a lot of feed.👍🏻
Nice Buffet for your sweet babies! Great job!
The goat hay feeder looks very cool! Love how we will do anything for our animals and pets :D Good work Lumnahs! :D
Great job on that feeder for the goats. You could make money just building things like that for other home steaders. I'm enjoying being back. Do you have a major build planned for Spring, such as was the barn. I'm loving your channel. Back to watching daily. This Spring I plan to make some of your projects for our place.
Shouldn't that be the three amigoats?
Absolutely. Great variation. Well done. 👏
That almost whooshed right over my head, took me a few seconds. Well played.
Oh man, you beat me to it
Lol
Perfectly stated! Drop the mic, walk off the stage, you sir - Nailed it!
Have you thought of adding some pegboard above your workbench?
Another great build on the Lumnah Homestead! Looks like the mule comes in handy!!!
Love the new feeder and looks like Hope a dope does to she's my favorite ...I was just thinking while watching YOU both build the new hay feeder how blessed Olivia is ro have parents that work well together and are a great role model for her and great teaching on work ethics. Well until next time have a wonderful day and a blessed weekend.
Parental examples ARE so important. I think when TV shows dropped Father Knows Best, The Nelsons, etc. our society went down hill and became so disrespectful to parents, other people in society, and BULLYING has skyrocketed. HELP!
@@rosejafari8917 I so agree I REALLY hate tv now a days
Rose Jafari there is nothing on TV to watch! It’s terrible, so are the movies. Would rather watch Lumnah Acres.
@@patmaier6917 exactly i cut off my cable years ago . I noticed it became my God and so much trash on tv .
You have to have some of the best built projects on your modernstead. I love watching you and DIYfferent build stuff. ❤️
The three amigos rocks !
The goats can't leave the path.... The snow is lava 😉😛
Would you consider selling the plans/cut list for the feeder? Where did you get the metal "grates"? As always, this is my favorite channel of all.
I'm in Ma, we are getting it too! Means homemade soup and sandwiches! Keep a body warm!
Great video the feeder looks awesome
I love that design! My husband is planning on building one like that once he finishes with our butchering shed
A project for the future bring NYC in the fall alongside the barn and connect to the electrical supply with lights up your egg production and still have a mobile chicken coop
He likes to give the hens their natural resting period and not force laying by adding lights. Just his preference. 💜🌞🌵
The egg laying capabilities of a chicken Is only 24 months but the chicken can live to 10 to 20 years not fit to eat after 3 years
Not bad looks good serves it's purpose. Good job you left the gate up so they could lay their eggs. I hope you and your family have a great day
Feeder looking great but I would have notched the centre brace so it fitted around upright and was in line with uprights on the feeder sides. Loks great
Looks Great! 👍 Have a perfectly wonderful day!! 3-6-9 The goose drank wine (from The Clapping Song)
Still no snow here in the city of Halmstad in Sweden 😭
gooood mornin Al, and all the other modernsteaders. its a beautiful, partly sunny 21°F outside here this morning, 72°F inside the cave in my cube. The atomic clock shows 9:45 in Al's neck a the woods, My coffee is good~n~hot, sweet and light, Just like the better 1/2 😎! dad always said I should learn to drink it black, may do that someday . Al, good job on the hey feeder! looking forward to the next project foshizzle, Everyone have a great day & a better tomorrow. I got some traveling to do. See y'all back in the future.
Nice done! You really build the nicest stuff with wood, and put far more care than something commercially made would have. You both did fantastic with the new portable hay feeder with a roof!
Salut super vidéo magnifique
i was brought up on a farm in England, when we cut hay bales, we always cut the bale twine at the knots, you then can use again for all sorts of jobs
Over here in the uk we have a water based clear liquid that’s called Thomson water seal you could water proof all your timber that comes in contact with animals outside to prolong the life
hey feeder looks like a success, they seem to like it. And i like the fact that it is easily movable from place to place. I am learning a lot for when we get to where yall are now. Got a way to go. First order of business is the garden area and the orchard. Still got clearing to do and raise beds to build. But our weather is way better than yalls. Weird, it was close to 70 , then sleet the next morning and this morning woke up in the 50's.
I think next week S. Carolina is going down to 14' wind chill. That's after near 70's. We are bummin. \:
Your content is awesome .... always enjoyable to watch !.... I also like how you incorporate your prayer around the dinner table !
Nice feeder! Looking forward to seeing what your next project will be.
The feeder is working well and the girl are already taking to it. Wondering what Gina's new project will be.
you had to know that little P would jump up INTO the new hayfeeder. the new babies will too. thats why Kevin (weed em and reap) made the hanging one. for just that reason. you will constantly be cleaning it. i would put a hook on one end and keep a small broom or brush hanging on it. or a dustpan, you have a lip there on the edge so you may need a scoop instead. nice to see eggs, it works if you open the door. lol looks great, and anyone saying that hayfeeder is too big has not thought of the fact that every goat there is either bred or is going to be bred. 7 quickly turns into 14+. this way they have room to grow and not fight so much. also, it was 70 degrees here near houston texas today. will look to see if we have a cold front coming in.
Love the teamwork you have. That is a true strong loving marriage. Respect for each others talents and opinions. Your carpentry skills are fantastic. G-D Bless both of you and your family.
I love your videos . Would you consider editing out the saw and inpact driver noises its really loud on your videos. Or is that just wishful thinking on my part?
Great job 👍😀👍
Get a heated seat cushion for the mule. "happy wife, ....." :)
This is absolutely stupendous, Al! You and Gina make a great team!
Just finished watching this video and really enjoyed how well you guys work together.
Yes, that's one beautiful feeder. Nice work.
Your hay feeder will be perfect out in the pasture! Are you making a Sleigh out of the skid for the barn wood!?!?
