We have been fixing up our property for 4 years now and making it our homestead. We still have lots of work ahead of us to build everything we want to have here. But today, lets take a tour of the areas we are currently using on our 41 acre property and maybe see some things you haven't seen before.

We live in southeastern Illinois on a 41 acres homestead. We just finished building our log cabin overlooking our pond. We are trying to grow our own food and raise livestock. Follow us on our journey living the rural life and developing our property and becoming more self sufficient.

Nice you didn't torture us with music
Wow, my dream in an 18min video. Some day I will find my homestead. Enjoy.
I'm happy I found this one. Pretty much my dream place other than the 73 acre farm I grew up on. You're going to do great, Evan.
An island of sanity, in a frenzied world. Great !
Really like your channel. Your Great Granddad would be proud. That is a great story about your family owning the land. You will have a great life on the property. The shooting range is right up my alley. Good luck
Hi...... Country View Acres, thank you for sharing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
We moved into my grandparents house in 1966 they both died in October 1965 in a carwreck I can still remember when grand dad remodeled the sleeping porch into a den....
Wow. Really cool that it was previously in your family.
This channel is a great pleasure for me, a farm life of the sort my family lived, also in southern Illinois, from the 1920s to about 1950, and where I spent summers as I grew up in the suburban world of St Louis. How I wish I could have bought a farm forty years ago!
Working to live, instead of living to work ! Nice place.
Holy cow! That's amazing! Your great, great grandfather owned YOUR property! How incredible.
The area in the add on to the bank barn was where they used to Farrow hogs. Would also work for when your goats are kidding.
Farrowing pens for any livestock is my opinion also. Peace
You have so much structure that you got with your acreage and we got no structure. Absolutely a blessing. We purchased our 36 acres of brush and cactus 13 months ago. We now have electricity, soon will have a water well and we have cleared most of the brush to sprig some grass and our creek crossing is almost done. We hope to start our 2,000 Sq Ft 1 bed room house soon. I love your pond. We will never have one like that as we don't get the rain and our land isn't rolling. All of that said, I appreciate your tour!!! Your doing an awesome job.
Evan I'm from the future and the farm looks better in 2023
You are a blessed man!
Evan and Rebecca, You journey reminds me of my childhood on my grandparents dairy farm. Three uncles were dairy farmers as well and we kids enjoyed making hay and harvesting stuff from grandfather's massive garden. IMHO you are amazing and heroic as animals do not care for themselves nor does the land. Thank you for your vlog and appreciate very much all your work and dedication especially while keeping down full time jobs. Courage!
Redoing a old farm is a lifelong adventure. Enjoy!
damn, so cool that you have an actual pond for your ducks to swim in, they must be so happy doing their thing. :)
Thanks for this great tour of your place. How fortunate you are to live and work on a place like this (which you and your wife have created with your hard work). I've been watching your channel for a couple of months and this tour helps me put things in perspective. I love this channel.
Years ago I saw when you first got that land. WOW ! It looks SOOOOO much better and you have done soooo much to improve it. Congratulations on a fantastic farm !
Having watched a few of your other videos, Now I can picture what you're trying to do. You're a real inspiration.
awesome homestead! Thanks for the tour. For me the best part is the property buffer from other people moving in next door....must be a very freeing feeling.
Over 2 mins in commercials. I like it, it says were growing and need funds to help the footage improve. I am more than willing to watch them too for a taste of a dream that I too have :) Thanks for sharing bub.
Nice that you have a familial connection to your property
Suggestion for new subscribers. Go back to the early videos and get you some popcorn! Thanks Evan
Evan, excellent tour of the homestead. The possibilities are endless and will leave you both with enough work to occupy all your spare time. Thanks again
You need some 4 legged alarm systems to let you know when the trespassers are doing the rounds at the pole barn.
So beautiful
We just bought a 44 acre ranch. We are looking to do something similar! Fantastic video. I am so happy for you! Congratulations on reclaiming the land back into the family. You could take a metal detector out and possible find something your great grandfather owned and used.
I hope you have good luck with the fruit trees we tried it's such a headache especially when they randomly die at 6 or 7 years old we finally decided to save our efforts and support our local farmers market.
I love your homestead and I'll be watching more vlogs 💞💞💞
New subscriber. Your land is beautiful. You were so blessed to get your grandfather's homestead/property. It was meant to be in the family.💖 Blessings from our LORD.
Just found your channel- thanks so much, this is reality TV- we’re with you-enjoy your life Bub Cali.
Wow, great homestead! Definitely inspiring
Hey from KY! Thanks for the tour. You have a beautiful piece of Heaven there. Awesome and alot of hard work you have done so far. We live on a farm too. Glad I found this video. I will for sure be watching more.
Love your farm ! Would really enjoy watching you clean up around the pond , maybe plant some cat-tails and a weeping willow or two for shade . could also build yourself a small pier .
The back stalls maybe was for butcher pigs. The place looks great, great work.
Pete from Just a Few Acres Farm sent me. Thanks for the video.
Evan, you bought this property on my birthday, Sept. 30. You and Rebecca have come a long way since the camper, while you were building and now you have a really nice place and it is just getting better and better. Good luck in the future.
looking so good!!
Great tour!👍
I did enjoy the tour, beautiful 💫
Thanks for the tour. You've turned that old farm around.
Love the way your setting up your farm :)
Very nice! You’ve come so far!

Thanks! Look neat👍
BEAUTIFUL .
Really nice place you have! Thanks for the tour!
What a Great property, and its coming along nicely
You have a beautiful homestead, thanks for the tour.
I thoroughly enjoyed the tour of your lovely homestead.
Beautiful rolling countryside. Nice work on the property. Have you ever considered beekeeping? They would help pollenate the truit trees and help out the honeybee species.
Wow!!! Your property is amazing
Wow looks great man.
This is my first time seeing your whole property from an aerial view. It's beautiful.
Beautiful property! Love the channel and keep the content coming!
Thanks for the tour! In Wisconsin, most bank barns are the gambrel roof'd dairy barns. Milking parlor in the bottom and hay storage up above with a silo or two attached to the side. Very interesting to see buildings from different areas and how they were used. I like the way you have long term plans for everything and just keep chipping away at it.
Dave Ramsey, hmmm. The homestead is a masterpiece . I am so happy for you guys. Enjoy your blessings.
Yes Dave Ramsey. We got out of debt, paid off our house, saved money for a couple years. Bought our property, went back in debt. Sold our house moved to country, went back out of debt. Build dream home, went back into debt. But the mortgage is our only debt now. Couldn't have done it without being debt free and saved money before hand. We still do a monthly budget and follow the Dave Ramsey plan.
@@CountryViewAcres That is good debt. Debt with a plan, Not impulse buying commercialism. The discipline to pull it off is commendable. What an awesome example for your sons. Genesis 11:6.
I love your place, it's beautiful! Blessings from Tennessee.
Your old farm machinery would look great with a splash of paint on them
Very nice!!!
I haven't seen this subscription in about 4 years at least. I remember when you lived in the camper and were just moving into the property, the trouble you had with fixing up the drive. Good to see the progress, know it is a lot of work, but a labor of love. Good tour, nice video.
