If you're new to the channel, WELCOME! If you've been with us for a long time, thank you for all your support and kind words!
We can't believe it's already been one year on this beautiful property! We have accomplished so much on this Homestead, and we couldn't be prouder of ourselves. We have so many more projects to complete, I'm not sure they will ever end!
If you are interested in purchasing Idaho Pasture Pigs/Piglets or are interested in buying pasture raised pork, shoot us an email @ thepasturedhomestead@gmail.com and we'd be happy to answer any questions you may have!
Thank you all so much for all your love and support ❤️ We are so glad you enjoyed our 1 year video. It’s been an amazing journey for us, and now Ashlyns family 😃 if you’re interested in Idaho pasture pigs or pork e-mail me at thepasturedhomestead@gmail.com
I'm a New subscriber. Glad to be along on your journey. Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ
Your living my dream.
❤🎉🎉🎉NICE ❤
Do you know Owen Benjamin?
Pete with Just A Few Acres Farm is an awesome person to learn from. He has tons of knowledge and experience, your homestead looks amazing. Y’all are doing a great job.
Yes very true with his dad jokes ,😂😂 I like his channel.
I was just gonna recommend Pete!
How bad are his dad jokes lol Magic channel tho
Yep, dude is a wealth of knowledge

You two are such a beautiful couple. You need to have like 20 kids. The reason I say this. The world needs more people like you two.😊😊😊
Ive convinced her to have 4 so far, lets hope for more 🤣
@@ThePasturedHomestead no disrespect, but i want to do ask how do u get the money for 4 children and all the animals? Under Biden's America, inflation has skyrocketed and prices for everything has gone up
Oh, wow! So you left Washington to join us folks in Appalachia! How cool! Welcome to the original frontier! Great job and God bless! 🧡
We sure did! We searched and searched for the right place, and Appalachia really spoke to us! We are so thankful to find an area and property that we love so much. Thank you!
Be sure to visit The Gap. My husband is from there and visit Martin's Station for great history. You'll love it. Have a great week! @@ThePasturedHomestead
The piglets are cute. The new pig pens look great.
Young man be proud of yourself. Everything looks amazing. New to your channel .your mistakes are a learning process. You are figuring it all out
Thank you and welcome to the channel 😃
Super easy to freeze your whole tomatoes and beans.
You two have taken to homesteading like you were grown on one. Proud of you. We are in the Puget Sound area so we understand what you left behind. Good for you. I subscribed today so I won't miss place you again. Busy time of year.
Thank you! We do miss Washington sometimes but we sure do love Kentucky!
Congratulations to Ashlyn’s family on their new home. Exciting to have family close to you all. 😊 hope this make’s your life even more special.
We are very lucky! It’ll be wonderful to have family right down the road 😃
I have missed your videos but totally understand you are busy and enjoying family time. You kids have done a great job on improving the farm - congratulations!
I was thinking the same thing. I was curious how they were doing.
Wow! You are so young to have already accomplished so much. Look forward to seeing where you go from here. Looks great.
Thank you so much 😊
Congratulations, you are hard working people.God bless you guys.
I love dogs, you guys have given them a great space outside inside the barn its functional, dogs don't mind being outside there dogs 😊
Pete is the man and presents everything in a clear and calm demeanor. Justin Rhodes is just too chaotic to watch.
Thanks for the tour. Things have really changed since you were posting videos. Hope y’all start posting again.
A farm isn’t a farm until you have horses !! 😉❤️🐴❤️
Haha ashlyn would like them. I’m not a horse guy!
Bout time somebody made a good homestead video
I WONDERED WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN DOING
I have missed you guys
Thank you so much, Zach and Ashlyn, for sharing your beautiful farm! You are really creating something very special to be proud of. So glad to hear about Ashlyn’s parents moving to join you and am happy you will have family close by. I think of the two of you often and always send love to you both from the Southwest. ❤❤
Thank you for the constant support and wonderful comments!! We are so excited to have my family closer, sending you lots of love and joy 💗💗
The video hasn't posted yet and I'm already sharing the notification 😁 just a little bit longer.
You could use the saw dust to mulch your garden with. That would help to keep the weeds down.
If you mulch with sawdust, you need to add a lot of nitrogen rich materials.
In April this year my family and I moved from WA to NY onto a dairy farm also owned by Amish. It was probably one of our best ideas.
That’s wonderful! NY has a beautiful countryside!
Was so nice to see another new video from you, we missed you but totally understand being busy with the farm & family.
Come on cows! Love a few acres farm and Pete's lame dad jokes, lol. Happy to see a new update from you and how well your homestead is doing. I look forward to the house update. Oh no! Trim work to finish? I've lived in my house for 20 years and there's still trim work!😅 .
Thank you for the tour! If you are learning from Pete @ Just a Few Acres, you are learning the right way. He is so knowledgeable, and a good teacher. I can listen to him, forever. Your farm is beautiful. You picked a good one, imo. Best wishes, in all you do.
Thank you so much! Pete is awesome!
This is a great video of a tour on your Homestead. You're doing and good job so keep it up. 👍
Yes I love watching Pete as well.. he gives his knowledge out and it is so easy to understand from him! Great job to ya'll!
thanks for the tour. just saw your channel. i was raised on a ranch in North Carolina when my brother still lives. I am dreaming of leaving California to roam on some land again. Help my adult kids raise their families. keep up the great work! how about some horses!!!
Hello! I'm from Australia & I just wanted to say I think you're one of the most humble Americans I've ever watched! I'm definitely subscribed for future videos, love what you're doing & how you respect your animals & land ❤👏
Thank you 😃 welcome to the channel
you guys are livin my dream. im so proud of ya bud
I am so proud of you guys. My husband and i have lived in Kentucky all our lives and we have traveled alot but no matter where we go when we come back home to Kentucky it is alot like i imagine heaven will be like....perfect.
Welcome to Kentucky! I'm an hour or so from there, you're in a beautiful part of the state :)
You have a lot of cows 🐄 and pigs 🐖 and chickens 🐔
Try and source cardboard as mulch instead of landscape fabric. Breaks down overtime and it’s free if you can find it! Cant wait to see next year
Zach great to have a update on how things are going on the farm. So much has been accomplished in a year and it suggests that the two of you are very focused young adults with a plan to accomplish learning as much as you can in the process and applying those experiences in ways that makes life and management of a farm much easier and sustainable. Hopefully you all are able to continue generating nothing but best in your lives and on your Farm. Keep up the good work! May you continue to obtain, and be blessed with good health 🙏, growth, success and prosperity 🙏
I am glad that you have Pete on Just a few acres to help you with planing your pasture rotation strategies. Keep up the good work. Jim and Lisa Geneva Ohio.
Nice farm, Zach
Run your chickens through the garden plots. They do a great job finding all the weed seeds and eating them. Awesome job on the farm. Looks awesome.
Great video Zach and Ashlyn
Good luck, you two!!❤
Really enjoyed seeing this video
Amazing and all the blessings for you and your farm!
Ya’ll have come a long way in a year!! We have been on our place coming up on our 3rd winter and we are still “bootstrapping”…. I wish that I was even HALF as squared away at 26 as ya’ll are. We are retired now, and are just 3 years into our homesteading journey..
It's great to hear from someone starting a homestead later in life. I'm 56 and was thinking it's too late to be starting a farm.
Y'all are doing so much. Your farm is just beautiful.
Thanks for the tour
Great job guys
Great to see you back been looking daily for a new upload!
Very happy for u and ur family 💯
Glad to see you ❤
You guys ROCK. Loved seeing sweet Rosie! Hope little kitties are doing well also. Enjoy your family and the rest of your summer!! God bless.
The cats are great! Thank you, you as well 😃
Thank you so much for the update... was looking for you guys recently on here.... awesome video!
Hi Zach, glad that you both took the time this summer to host family and enjoyed your time together. Teddy seemed to be your shadow for a good portion of this video. Glad to hear that everything is going well and great to see all of the additions to the homestead. It is always nice to see animals in a healthy environment with plenty of room instead of living in an enclosed area. Looks like you guys are doing great so best wishes to you and Ashlyn.
Thank you Ben! It’s been a wonderful summer for us! We are learning lots 😃
So beautiful. Watching from South Africa
Impressive! You're so blessed!
Looks great!!
Great tour of your place.
Great place. Keep posting. Thank you and wishing you all the best

Thank you! Welcome to the channel 😃
First time watching , nice to see a young couple working hard
Welcome to the channel! Thank you very much 😃 We love this life!
What a life man
Great video. Thanks. Keep them coming your doing a bang up job.
We just had a family get together and all the food came from our farm! Yes! It is a great feeling! Fyi-we put electric fence around our sweet corn this year because last year a family of racoons ate all of it just as it was ready to harvest!! We did a low wire and one a bit higher. We love frozen sweet corn all winter long. Did you plant potatoes? Another good and easy harvest. Just found your channel and subscribed. Best wishes this winter!
Great idea! We may have to try that next year. Yes we did plant potatoes but the bugs got to em so we didn’t have a great harvest
Welcome to the channel 😃
Glad to see you guys doing well. Have missed your videos but totally get it that life takes priority. The property and critters are looking great!
It is good seeing you again!! I’ve missed seeing your videos!! The farm is looking spectacular!! Congratulations on a job well done!!

Welcome to KY!
Hey Pete! New subscriber here. Just one thing I wanted to share with you, something I've heard is that turkeys and chickens should not cohabitate together. In fact, they should be completely separated - like the other side of the farm sort of thing. This is because turkeys are prone to certain diseases chickens carry. Your chickens should be OK with turkeys, but not the other way 'round! Just thought I'd give you a heads up there. That said, if you have a "pardoned" turkey in with your laying chickens, the turkey will be the "police, judge and jury" as the turkey will stop the hens pecking at each other in the hen house. So you'll find it's a lot more peaceful in there. However, that turkey may die on you and it should never be butchered and eaten.
I enjoyed the video gonna watch another I subscribed. One thing I would move those cows about every 4 days because that's when the dung beetles hatch and you have problems. also moving the chickens around behind the cows by 4 days they will spread the manure and eat the beetles
We found with our egg birds that we only let them out to free range after lunch That way we never had to go looking for eggs I have to say though our chickens lived in a coop 15 x 15 meters so they weren't distressed before they could go out to forage
Pete with just a few acres, very nice! I enjoy his channel! Great property, good for you guys starting young! Do you ship in all the states?
Just found your channel (and subscribed) and it's great to see what you've done so far. It looks fab!
Thank you! Welcome to the channel 😃
Good to see you again I've missed the videos too. On Canning you said you don't have a pressure canner but you've been water bathing everything and that you are new to this. Not to sound negative but I do hope you have a Ball Canning Book and are following USDA standards for canning there are a lot of low acid foods that can only be pressure canned such as green beans, corn and potatoes just to name a few. A lot of people do Rebel Canning so your kitchen your rules but just wanted to throw that out there since you are new to canning. Anna In Ohio
