Our 1 Acre Homestead - How We Micro Farm 

Impressive that this is all done on 1 acre. My wife and I have looking at property to buy, and many of the lots are 1-1.5 acres. This video helped me realize what will fit!

Certainly the cleanest and best organized homestead I have seen. Huge, huge potential there.

Great setup. Debt free is the new,american dream. I can't homeschool my kids though. I'm looking forward to some quiet time next Monday when they go back to school

Love love your land. BTE is my fav. Your landscape is so clean and manicured and organized. SO many I see is so jumbled together. Well kept. Can't wait to see what you will do with your 20 acres

You have the most aesthetically pleasing homestead I've seen. I'd be proud of the place even if it didn't have animals, etc.. It feels spacious and easy to move about. I know I'm going on, but it should be in a magazine. Mother Earth or Grit, or another one would be great to have full color pictures and a diagram of the layout. Only thing I'd add would be a pavilion with outdoor cooking space to entertain or process food in the shade. Please keep sharing. It's inspiring to see a productive place with a neat, upscale look.

This is a great use of space. I love the designated areas. Everything is so neat and tidy. That is a lot of food production on just a mere ACRE! People with five or ten acres think that they don’t have enough room and yet here you are creating this cornucopia of plenty on just ONE!

You have a little slice of heaven on earth. Congratulations on living your dream...it’s beautiful!!!

Thank you for sharing. It looks like 1 acre would be enough for me and my family. May God continue to bless your efforts.

Wow i was wondering what one acre looks like visually , i know the numbers but i just couldnt picture it . your homestead is beautiful and i love the secret area where people cant see the animals . this is the perfect design so neat and clean and very pleasing on the eyes. Thanks for sharing your space👍 you gave me some great ideas for my future homestead.

Your homestead is gorgeous and inspiring. God bless!

Wow, that was an awesome space. Love the new LARGER homestead but you all did a great job with the micro farm.

Gorgeous! I love the way you guys seemed to keep 'aesthetics' in mind. You have the real FARM stuff (animals) behind a 'Natural' hedge so anything 'messy' is out of view and your LAWN BEDS look like they are APART of the lawn! Outstanding, the organization I see here! Chile, if I was your neighbor I'd be sitting in your backyard ALL THE TIME, seems so 'peaceful'! You'd be like, "Ms. Byrd, you need to go home now." lol

We bought one acre and put a home on it a year ago. I'm now researching homesteading possibilities for our property. I wasn't sure if we had enough land but your video gave me hope that we do! Spending my winter reading and planning so we can get the ball moving for spring!

The background music at the end 🥰 raising them right!! Beautiful little homestead

This is amazing. We have ten acres ourselves but aren't really able to do this much because nearly the entire property is dense forest (which I'm not complaining about because it's beautiful), but I still grow my own chili peppers for powder, hot sauces, and other things because the quality is better than store bought and it's easy to breed your own varieties to match your own preference

Niiiice. After seeing this I know how many acres I want so I will speak it into existence. I will be living on 5 acres in 2020 😊

Wow. Thank you so much for showing your beautiful land. I'm looking to start my own homestead with my family for the first time and people kept telling me I needed way more to do this and more and I see now after all this time that I don't need that. I can now start over and look for 1 acre properties and not over 2. Thank you so much. Blessings.

It's so pretty! What a good set of hard-working family members!

Great job. We grew as much as we vould in town on our 3/4 acre lot before we got the homestead. It was amazing how much we could still do in town

Oh this brings me such joy! I’ve just found your channel and am watching video after video! So grateful for the wealth of wisdom you are sharing! 🥰

You have done an amazing job with one acre. Blessings to you and your new journey.

Very nice! 1 acre looks huge! I have 2.5 acres, and yours seems just as big lol.

Thanks for reminding me sometimes unanswered prayer is a blessing. Goes right with not getting upset about being late getting somewhere...one time I saw I would have been in a major pile up if I had been on time. Your place is beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful homestead! We have just over an acre and your homestead is very inspiring! We are in the desert, so it’s a little different, but I know homesteading can still be done! We have a very small garden and chickens so far. ❤️ thank you for sharing!

Amazing use of the space you have. 😍

I’m in love with your “secret area”! I have an acre and we’re just getting started!

Wow ! You folks and grow all the fruit you wish and outstanding garden and composting with wood chips . Just can’t wait to see your Idaho property and gardening and what not. Interesting to the outmost...Tks . A million

It's amazing what can be done on 1 acre, well done! At my previous home we lived in a small city, and I turned my side yard into an urban garden. Why cut grass when you can produce food?!? It was only approx. 30'x40' but using high intensity methods of planting, the yield in that small space was astronomical. We ended up sharing the majority of the harvest since I had no space to can/preserve beyond eating fresh and sharing with all of the neighbors. Having gardened on true acreage when I was growing up, my experience with the highly productive urban garden, I'm very excited for the 1.73 acres that I'm currently developing into a homestead! Most people think you need huge acres to be self sustainable, but that's simply not the case!

Same to my thoughts 😊 Very kind, lovely and affordable plan, thank you very much the channel"Good simple living". 🙏 Respect and support from India 😇

It is good to see how much land that is. I think I would like 2 acres one day. You have a beautiful piece of property. The animals look well cared for.

Really appreciate your vlog. Very inspiring for Rebekah and I as we’re newbies to the whole permaculture/ do what you can with what you have way of thinking. Awesome 😎 thank you!

It’s so nice there but much nicer in Idaho! Back to Eden is awesome! And now your moving in, so awesome! God is Good!

Beautiful place. Looks bigger than an acre. Loved your kids hat! I have a half acre and have been trying to downsize some of the work. Taking out some fruit trees, removing some blueberries. One thing you might really like is thornless blackberries. Easy to grow and produce like crazy.

This is so cute! I love it.

"Praying About it" i Like it!!. Simply that was let THY will be Done. Give us this or something much more.

Reminded me of my grandpa's homestead, a lot. Doing a good work there guys

Wow this is one of the most amazing homesteads ive ever seen, my parents wanted to retire and start a homestead and ive been doing some research for them your video gave my some great ideas :)

I know I'm late but love this tour. I keep hearing about back to Eden. I love how neat and productive your place looks, I am going to check it out. New sub here...looking forward to hearing about your adventures in Idaho!

I bet the new homeowners were happy with the work you put into this!

Beautiful property! You guys did a great job with it!

stunningly beautiful, clean and organized! may you always have health and continue to share and teach! thank you for the inspirational video. Moving to a new homestead is a brave thing to do! Best wishes!

Your garden is so well groomed and beautiful!

Very nicely layed out!! I grew up in the mountains of PA on a farm but the east coast is just to cluttered with people these days so I'm buying 40 acres in Arizona and im gonna build a ranch thats totally off grid and just enjoy life. Ive been self employed my whole life ( Geologist and Mechanical Engineer) Arizona is the rock and gem capital of the world so its perfect for what we do for a living.

We also have a small homestead. Only 2 years old so still a baby homestead! Ours is a little less than an acre! Love this

Your organized Garden is really Beautiful...💓

Absolutely beautiful!!!

lol this is great. The back to eden gardening is what led me here, and ironically you've even mentioned it. I noticed your woodchips, and then BAM you said it. wonderful! the creator is good.

Beautiful! This was so inspiring. :)

Y'all have really become efficient with you land usage. Awesome acre!!!

what a lovely homestead.

Great video! Got a lot of ideas from your layout and methods -- thanks! Best wishes for your bigger homestead also!

Brilliant to see this now and see who you have grown as a family. And also how relaxed you are now

Such a cool video, thanks for the tour!

Wow I’m so grateful for this video! I’m a city girl but the older I get the further away I want to be. I would love to start a homestead or a hobby farm! I was worried about land availability and how much I could afford and would it be big enough! Again thank you for showing me that I can do it! You inspired me!

This is absolutely beautiful

OH my gosh!!! A quick search for a "micro homestead" and this video popped up. I have been a subscriber for a while and truly enjoy your current massive project. This older video is a super resource for my family's 2 acre home/homestead

Your property is beautiful!

Just came across your channel and love this video. We have 1/2 acre right now, hoping to buy the vacant lot next to us so we'd have a full acre. My husband is a landscaper, so we're big on making our homestead esthetically pleasing while still being very productive. With the exception of wanting to also add bees, your homestead sounds almost identical to what we're working on (the chickens, rabbits, even God's plans trumping our own)!

Stunning! Inspirational! Faith!

Fantastic use of space! 😍😍

i like your garden, so neat

Thanks for sharing, just inspirational faith in better days

BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY!!

Awesome job!

Beautiful video. Your place is so neat.

Great video, thank you for sharing. New subscriber from Australia. I look forward to seeing your veggies growing 😀💕

I love the design ❤

The wife and I just bought a cabin home with one acre and the acre is wide open so we are so excited to get started homesteading! We close in August.

Nice clean and organize homestead amaizing,keep up the good work.

I've always heard the saying, "If you want to tell God a joke, tell him your plans".

Lovely thank you You are living my dream I hope to be able to do what you are doing Shalom from Ohio

Well done on praying first before doing!! God is always right and knows what you need best.

Great work. God bless.

thanks for sharing Back to Eden! newspaper, compost, wood chips/branch bits/needles

Wow that all well ordered!

Beautiful 😍 ❤👍

What an amazing way to maximize your land!

Dope home Thank you for sharing it 💯

Your place is absolutely dialed. Back garden is amazing. Glad you didn’t get that parcel next door, that intersection is insane. Be safe, looking forward to Idaho updates😀

Beautiful property 💕

Congrats on the 20 acre dream homestead.

Hi new subbie! I’m so impressed and inspired ❣️ shows we don’t need much to produce what we need. Rabbit poop makes for good and ready fertilizer . So does chicken poop but it has to dry out for awhile. I will learn so much, thanks 😊

Beautiful 🤩

Cool set up!!

You got a lovely place there

Cool garden it's always good, to add peat moss before planting & mulch during the growing season. The growth is from grass clippings, etc... and woodbark. This all keeps the ground enriched, soil matters. You don't need 80 acer too grow, meaning it's amazing how much you can grow on 1'acer of land with a single house. Do you sell your vegetables and fruits?

Gorgeous layout.....so well tended....guess I got blindsided by a very special, special needs chick around the time you did this video....and missed it....can't wait to see how you are doing in Idaho.....YHVH bless!!!!

Hello I'm a new subscriber and follower to your channel. Wow I'm so impressed with your landscaping and how beautiful it all looks Shows y'all spend a lot of time and care in your homestead. Great job. Look forward to seeing more videos. Thanks. George from Louisiana.

Nice job beautiful place best wishes to you and yours

As a newbie, this is very inspiring. I will check out back to eden. Thank you.

I love your house, and your setup so much!

This is awesome!

Now I only have a 30 square meter garden, your place is my dream.

Awesome !

Every farm needs more than one cat! Heck even households do too. I have 4 cats myself and they keep our house safe from pests. 🐈🐀

Beautiful

Love it

Great video. We will share this with our customers for sure :) We sell land in rural areas and this will help generate some great ideas. Thanks for creating this!

Thanks for sharing. Very nice . I like the espalier. An acre has potential to be extremely productive food wise. There is a guy in New Jersey (James p.) that has a very small yet intense food forest. I myself live in Pittsburgh and have a small but intense veggie garden on a city lot. I also have a rental in Hawaii on 2 acres. Currently only one is cleared. We also have grass and every time my wife and I come to check the house, we buy fruit trees and plant to transform the grass into orchard.
