My hubby lost his job and we had to sell our home we built. Looked into buying a trailer but they were so expensive. Instead we bought a shed and turned it into our home. I love it. We have 70 acres with my grown daughters and son in laws. We have all built homes on the land. my grandchildren love to explore and play outdoors.

In our mid 50's ,I have some major health issues that have prevented me from working well, I was watching your channel and showed my husband how you live. We moved 3 hours away from the city to a small town bought an older mobile home it has a roof over and has been protected from the elements for the most part. We are slowly repairing what needs it and I am starting my garden soon. Thank you for the inspiration to change even when your set in your ways. God Bless

The older mobile homes are built better than the new ones!! Blessings❣️❣️

It's been a long time since you did a property tour. It's even more beautiful now. Every year you two make improvements and it shows how much yall really care about your home and the pride you take in it's upkeep.

Hello Everyone Welcome to Tessie's Channel :-)

We pressure washed our deck & washed all the dark & green off & it looks new! It also keeps the deck from rotting & from slipping & falling! Blessings❣️❣️

I wanted to share with you an experience that I have had with keeping deer from eating my plants, I noticed they didn’t bother some of the plants, but did bother others of the same kind, the difference was gravel. So I put gravel around the plants being eaten, and the plants were no longer bothered, I was so surprised! I hope this helps you out too !

Have a blessed evening everyone

Thanks Tessie for your homestead tour. I really enjoyed seeing your gem of a place. It's not what you have but rather what you do with what you have. I am 66 years old and at 65 I downsized to get out of debt. The move was very exhausting and the home was a gut remodel. I have been here 18 months and I have invested wisely in this place. I am setting out fruit bushes and trees this week and am praying for God to bless my plantings. The remodel is very slow...me, myself and I doing the work. But I just pray everyday for energy and strength to get things done. Am putting up a portable green house next week by myself. Trying to start perma gardening this year. It's a lot, but God will help you accomplish more than you ever thought possible. Staying out of debt is God's will for us all. I want to encourage others that he will help you, step out in faith!

I’m finding land is so expensive now! Even if I wanted to own a mobile home. A place to park it is half the battle! Don’t forget to add elderberry and blue berries! You’re so blessed to have your own land and so big too!

We love our woodstove. Here in southeast Iowa, we can get some pretty cold winters. There is an expense to it though. My husband and I built a woodshed together last summer. It's wonderful! It's 10'x16' and we stack the wood to 1 foot from the rafters. It actually holds 1 1/2 to 2 years of wood. We have a log splitter and chain saws. The trees have been free for the taking. We have had a problem with Ash trees dying here in Iowa. Our home is a 1200 sq ft ranch so the medium sized woodstove does an amazing job of heating the house. March 2022 - March 2023 we only used 270 gallons of propane (our kitchen stove/oven, canning kitchen stove and our water heater also use propane)! We had our 1000-gallon propane tank topped off last March. I just checked our tank, and we are at 60% (still hasn't had any propane added since March of 2023!) We have our wood cut for next year (we always stay one year ahead on our wood, so it is plenty dry). I also keep a cast iron pot full of water on the top of our woodstove. We do not have to run a humidifier then. I also dry our clothes in front of it during the winter. I run a box fan to push the warm air down the hall to the bedrooms. Many meals have been cooked on the woodstove and bread is rising every week in front of it. I want to add an oven to the woodstove next! I grew up with a woodstove, so I know the different woods and how hot they burn. Be sure to buy a temperature gage to sit on the top of the woodstove. That will help keep you from overheating it and causing a chimney fire. Plus, pine creates a lot of creosote so stay away from it. So happy for you, my friend! You're going to love it!! So little house on the prairie!😉

Tessie, You and Ken have done an amazing job transforming your property and home into a beautiful place I can't wait to see what you are doing more :-) Love you my Sister :-) God Bless You and Ken :-)

Tessie you would be a sweet next door neighbor to have:) God bless you Sister! :)

Hi tessie. I just wanted to hop.on here real quick.. I've been taking care of my mother..so I haven't had any time to watch. Hi everyone!! ❤

Your property is beautiful. I live in a mobile too that is 56 years old also have my own property. You are right the older mobile homes are built a lot better. I'm believing The Lord for a newer mobile home in the future as the roof is shot on my mobile home and we are using a tarpolian to keep the rain out.

What a wonderful homestead, Tessie! No wonder you love it so much. Such a perfect day to be filming, as well. Can't wait to see what happens in the Spring on Tessie's Hometead! Thanks so much for sharing.

Wow Tessie this was a total throwback! I’ve watched your channel for five years now and have seen the transformation that you’ve done! I’m so happy for y’all! You will absolutely love having a wood stove! We love ours! ❤

I just bought me a single wide mobile home that's about 7 years old, well established & in great condition. I mainly paid cash besides a small portion that I'll have paid off within two years. I'm like you being 60 years old, I don't want any debt whatsoever.

Good Evening Tessie, Sisters, Brothers, and Friends, Be sure to hit that like button Tessie will appreciate greatly also be sure to watch all the ads :-)

Tessie, your homestead is so beautiful ! I can't wait to see what you have in your garden this year. Be well and blessings always !

Hi Tessie! I used butterfly bushes and forsythia to make a privacy fence. It attracts birds, bees and I enjoy watching the birds making nests in them. The deer doesn’t bother them either. It takes time to get your property the way you want it. You and Ken have made a beautiful homestead. Have a blessed night everyone!

That’s what I did also Tessie, I live in a mobile home on .68 of a acre, my garden is 100 ft x 100 ft I also set my place up like the Robinsons, garden and chickens in back and fruit trees in the front. I raise my meat chickens in a 10’x28’ leanto that I put electrical into the building . I have a garden shed which I want to swap out with a green house for when I will have time to grow my veggie starts instead of buying them . My hubby has a 2 car garage and a man cave . Once I can buy the lot on each side of me I hope to have a 2 dwarf Nubian Nannie’s . Even though I have a 100 x 100 garden I still have room to expand but my job is 10-12 hr days and I cant handle a bigger one but hope when I retire I can increase it by 5 more raised beds to the 8 I have along with 48 mineral tubs and 30 grow bags. Anyone who says you can’t grow enough to sustain yourself … well 1. You grow up on trellis 2. You can and dehydrate what you can’t finish fresh every day, 3. Grow what you eat and a lot of it! I live in Texas so I grow 10 out of 12 months , have a lake a mile away to fish out of, and I raise my meat chickens , am I totally self reliant? No but the savings I create far out weighs and tired and sore I feel lol and it’s so rewarding. Plus I know what went into the food I put on my table. I would never had tried any of this had it not been for you Tessie sounding off against someone saying you can’t feed yourself on 1 acre and you showed all you was doing and I knew I could also.

Your property is wonderful. Truly, the value of your home has greatly increased. You and Ken, sometimes with help from your children, have made it all so nice. I remember when you were all painting your shutters and siding. Scott is funny. Your family are sweet and loving. ❤

Great tour. Looking forward to spring. Thanks for the video.

Very inspiring. Cottage vibes. ❤lots of work that's paid off!

Your home and homestead is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

Good evening Tessie 😊❤! Thank you for sharing your homesteading journey 😊

You should be proud of your beautiful home and all of your hard work. It is so picturesque and would sell immediately if you ever wanted to relocate. I look forward to all your videos and learn so much from you. I am 78 years young and continue to look for a older mobile home in Missouri. God Bless you and your husband.

Wonderful video Tessie. You inspire me everyday ❤

Lovely surprise tour! Amazing what you have done to the property over the years! 💪🏻🌺

Oh honey. I love your property. Your husband and you have done well! ❤ Y'all should be very proud of your accomplishments! Blessings

Thank you Tessie! I spent the evening watching your channel and will be doing the same thing today. I am so grateful you stepped out of your fear and decided to share with us. It means the world to me. I'm so excited to have a new friend that loves the Lord as much as I do and is not afraid to say so. God bless youand your family.❤

Tessie you have a beautiful homestead. Can't wait to see what you your going to plant. Thanks for sharing.

that's a nice crochetted hat..did u make it?

Good Morning Tessie, Sisters, Brothers, and Friends, Wish you all a wonderful blessed Tuesday filled with Gods Joy and Happiness :-) Remember to pray for one another and for all around the world :-) God Bless You ! Love you all Keep smiling be safe :-)

I love all the careful decisions and use of resources!

Thank you for taking us on a tour of your property

Happy Tuesday Tessie ❤

Great tour Tessie, you and I and everyone for that matter are very blessed.. It’s just perspective ❤

I’m looking forward to Spring too. Have a great evening everyone.

My sitting couch is right up close to our big living room window that turns into a solar window when the sun's out..20-30 degrees warmer than the rest of the place.

Thanks Tessie for this video. I’m always wanting something different than what we have. I should be happy and content with what we have and improve the place we have right now. God bless you.

Thanks for the beautiful tour! Take care!

Bloom where you're planted. 😊

Good episode Tessie, beautiful!

Such a wonderful peaceful homestead. Thank you for sharing.🥰❤️

Howdy, getting wood burning stove. Hope all goes well with that, burning wood and getting it is labor intense.

Thank you for the tour. I never realized how large your homestead really is. I know it came with hard work and hard times but you are so Blessed. How thrilling to realize how valuable your land and home has become after 13 years!

She is simply precious and so refreshing.

Good job on your homestead ❤

Not on time or first but really happy to be here ❤❤❤❤

You're a gem Tessie.

You And Kenny Have Done An Amazing Job, Updating Your Property Tessie 🙂, It's Charming! Well Done To The Both Of You. Blessings Andrea.

You have an amazing piece of property. You’re lucky to have gotten it. What you’ve done with it is amazing as well. You and your family won’t starve with that garden. What a vacation spot you’ve made the property into.

I have that book too!

What a pretty view you have from that deck! This was a very fun video to get to see the entire property. Thank you for showing it to us.

Beautiful tour, Tessie! You've done such a fabulous job on your property and home; the love and care is evident. I'm looking forward to seeing how you put this year's plan into action. Adding that book to my wish list; I want to make the most out of where we're living now and gather ideas for wherever the future might bring us.

Awesome!!! Y'all are on top of it! God bless.

Mindful and purposeful living brings a lot of satisfaction.

Oh Tess...this is by far one of my favorite videos on your channel.This is the first complete look we have gotten of your beautiful huge property.You have alot to be proud of.Cant wait to see more.

This year our projects this year is raised beds for out garden. I found out really fast why they call east tennessee,"good Ole Rocky top". With the raised beds we can control the soil better. Also, rain barrels.. I love your hat and scarf. I am hoping to learn more about the herbal.medicine world

Oh your property is so lovely ! 🥰 My grandparents made a privacy fence with Rose of Sharon trees 🙌🏼🫶🏼✌️

Evening Tessie. Thank you for the update.

Looks great, Tessie!

From the title I thought you had moved!! LOL!😂 Very nice homestead. We have a 1500 sq Ft concrete block home on 14 Acres. However I am not much of a farmer. Hubby is a truck driver, he’s on the road a lot. I had a beautiful Hibiscus in the front yard. The winter and the deer killed it. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Very nice, so proud of your land. ❤

Thanks for sharing! We have about 24 milk jugs filled with water that we can use to flush the toilet in case we lose electricity. You never want to be without water. We also have lots of deer that enjoy eating our landscape.

Looks great Tessie.!

Your property is gorgeous! And I love that its all tidy and clean and so your homestead doesn't draw attention. What happened to the chickens?

I love your homestead💙🙏

I love how much you maximize your entire property and make it self sufficient.

We are retired & I prayed for a place for us....He opened the door for an older RV with 3 slides & a lot to put it on. We paid it all off. We have 2 outbuildings. One is my hubby's tool shed & the other had a rotting floor. It wasn't built correctly, so he had to remove the railroad ties & rebuild the floor & 2 walls. It took 5 years, but he now has his own man cave. I call it Bob's house. Does your hubby have his own mancave?❤❤❤

Great Reminder ! 👍🏾

More snow, Tessie? I'm trying not to envy you! I love snow and none has fallen here. This has been a fun overview of the history of your homestead development. Can't wait to see what you and you hubby do with it this year. Being able to truthfully say we love our homes, in spite of some things we don't have that are now in most houses, is a real blessing. Yesterday, my little grandson suddenly declared he would not ever want to move to Windsor or Buckingham Palace because our little home is better than a castle or palace. I am so happy that he is content😊.

Very interesting Tessie!

Nice job

You are going to love wood heat. It's fun to cook on it too.

Great looking property. How many acres do you have?

Your property looks great!

You have worked hard on your property to improve it and it looks great❤

You’ve done wonders with your property. Fortunately you have a good chunk of land but I do want to assure others that you can always improve, no matter how little you have. Tessie has the gumption to get it all done but so can you! We all need to reassess our resources and see how much better we can use them in these very challenging times.

Always enjoy your tours. Your hard work pays off. We are also working on our 100 year old property. Just ordered a rain barrel and hope this will help you as an affiliate.

I'm considering purchasing a mobile home with land. The mobile would require quite a bit of TLC. Do you have photos of your home when you first purchased it? Staying debt free is the biggest key to success. You're so right to pay as you go. Slow and steady wins the race!

Missed you tonight. Hope all is well.❤

I love the big garden! We started a channel recently sharing budget meals from scratch and gardening. Times are tough but God is able!!

🌻🌹🙏 I agree, Tessie. is a gem . Thank you for a tour of your lovely homestead and videos which are so resourceful take care

I may be going to PA to remodel my parents 1972 Mobile home. Ugggg plumbing, Heating, Roof , New kitchen etc.. Not sure if I will stay there long term or turn around and rent it to have extra income to grow my retirement . But going to be there for 6 months and let God show me what I need to do for my future. Currently paying a lot for a 1 bedroom apartment and I do like the idea of living rent and mortgage free. So praying that God gives me direction. Will be 36 years since I moved away from there so would be a huge change for me. But at 57 I’m really thinking and praying hard at what I need to do since retirement age is 10 years away.

You do have a lot of land, more out front than I thought. The big old tree is lovely and when the bushes get taller you will have more privacy. You and Kenny have been good stewards and it shows. Something to be proud of for sure.

Tessie, I love your little homestead, inside and out. It’s peaceful and inviting. Loved the tour, thank you.

nice property

Love seeing the property tours. You and Kenny have done so well.

I would love to see a video that includes planting seeds in your greenhouse is how you mix the soil’s and get ready for your plants for the spring time

I downzided when I moved to Florida. 13 rooms to 5. 3 car garage to carport. Big garden to containers. I love it. At 74 painting 5.5 acres was getting to be too much. I should have downsized earlier. I still grow much of what I need.

You two have accomplished so much. Your yard is gigantic! Have you ever counted how many steps around? Nice safe place to walk.

Tessie I absolutely Love your place!!! I know you have put a lot of time, money and hard work!!! Thank you so much for the tour!!! I love that you planted in the front of your property too!!! I live in an apt. How I wish I owned a lil piece of heaven on earth!! ❤❤❤

You have put in lots of work and made such a nice place for yourselves. 😊 I hope you will be able to get chickens again. That was really neat to hear about the original owner who was a military pilot. So was my hubby. Have a blessed week!❤
