Four...oops, FIVE projects around the homestead were tackled this week! Shawn has been extra-busy checking off his to-do list! He's doing work on the children's swingset, as well as projects in the summer kitchen, root cellar, and outhouse. Busy, busy all the time! Stay tuned until the end of the video to see a last-minute 5th project that we get to work on next!

I hope these videos from Shawn inspire people to invest in a good education whether it is college classes, night school or community based projects that will teach them to do a number of different skills that they can utilise when needed or as a career. My Dad could turn his hand to just about anything from electrics and mechanics to joinery or plumbing. He even taught himself to use a sewing machine to make curtains and seat covers for our first holiday home. The skills Shawn is passing on to the boys is one of the best gifts he could give them. Many blessings to you all ❤️🕯️🙏🌱

Shaun, you do such a good job with all the projects and repairs. You show the work and materials and explain but you don't show the work being done. You're very knowledgeable and explain well but many of us would like to see you do the work.

@hollyh5032 8 месяцев назад

Great video!! Janice, isn't it great having a husband who can do just about anything? My husband is the same way! We have saved so much money by doing things ourselves instead of hiring someone. I hope you & your family have a very blessed day ❤

@taniapagliai4218 8 месяцев назад

I'm 48 & my great grandmother lived in Ethel MO; she had an outhouse, a "hill" in her living room, and well water that was delicious! I'm so glad I was able to experience that until I was 14!❤

@lisaharrigan1370 8 месяцев назад

Very interesting about the difference between screws and nails! It is neat that you find use for every single thing!! You are going to have the best looking outhouse in Missouri! Great Video Shawn, very informative! Even though I don't do any work like this, it is still very interesting to watch! The scope of things that you can do yourself is amazing and it is awesome that your children can learn all these various skills from you! You can't pay for an education like that!!

@maryhekker4166 8 месяцев назад

Shawn, it’s quite possible, I could listen to you discuss a variety of subjects all day long as well as see the amazing progress being made on various projects around the homestead. Of particular interest is the updated outhouse as it looks a bit more inviting than what was before. Being a genuine Servant of God, dear Shawn, you’ve been blessed with talents and skills which aides your ability to properly care for your family. My dream is to visit someday via a RV,where I could roll out my rocking chair with all my hoses of oxygen and enjoy listening to your stories. Tremendously talented and Godly-man, thank you for this reel. With all the pieces of my heart ❤️ Mary Ann👍👍🎁😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏🪚🪚🔨🛠️⚒️🪜🪜🪑🪑🪵🪵❤❤❤❤

Will there be a ceremonial first use for the outhouse, like the first pitch for a new Major League Baseball game. I could listen to Sam already giving a play by play, “He’s the visiting celebrity visiting our improved and updated outhouse for the first time. Door closes….minutes later man immerses in obvious relief”😮‍💨 😮‍💨😮‍💨💩💩💩🚽🚽🚽🤣😂🤣😂❤️❤️❤️

Loved this video Shawn, I so enjoy watching other people build, repair and so forth. I know all about projects on the farm, it's usually an everyday job, even when it's raining or snowing there is always something to do. The Outhouse looks nice, all of the projects look nice. thank you for sharing. The girls are going to really enjoy the sewing room. We need to add more shelves to our canned food room before spring. Another project..lol

Great video Shawn, you are a man of many talents. The whole family does a great job with keeping things running smooth. I always thought it was very interesting to see how a homestead is run and the different things a family does to do that. Can you do a video on what each of the children do in a day to help with the homestead? Your a wonderful family, thank you for sharing. 😊💜

@judygriffing1276 8 месяцев назад

Hello! 👋🏻 I did enjoy the video, Shawn! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Good use of using what you have. I live in Southern California (prime earthquake country-had one the other day, as a matter of fact) and we use bungee-type cords on our metal pantry shelves to keep food from slipping and sliding. Even with a little old house in the suburbs, maintenance is never ending. Have a wonderful day! 😀

Great job on your projects! That’s a nice outhouse! I bet it’s handy to have when you’re doing outside projects or have gatherings! When you don’t have power and have a well can’t flush the toilet without a bucket. I grew up on well water had a pool so in the summer if it happened did that we also had a camp toilet just incase!

@trishthedish2790 8 месяцев назад

Wait an outhouse you don’t have bathrooms in your home 😮😮😮😊

@ozarkfamilyhomestead 8 месяцев назад

(from Shawn) We have bathrooms in the house, but we have always had an outhouse which is handy not only when you're working outside, but always works even if the power is out.

@dianetaylor1085 8 месяцев назад

Is the Outhouse in addition to the indoor plumbing in the main house? Perhaps the boys will use it when they move to the outdoor kitchen building? Just a little confused........

@ozarkfamilyhomestead 8 месяцев назад

(from Shawn) We have indoor plumbing in the house. The house is located very close to the summer kitchen where the new bedroom will be. The outhouse is handy when outside or when the power goes out which can be for an extended time when you live out a ways.

@veronicalillianmoses9571 7 месяцев назад

@annamoody981 8 месяцев назад

Is the out house used all the time? I thought you had a well and septic?

@ozarkfamilyhomestead 8 месяцев назад

Oh, we do have two normal bathrooms inside the house, Anna! The outhouse is there for us "just in case." :)

@kittyrichards9915 8 месяцев назад

Question for Janice - where is the most economical place to buy dishwasher soap? Thanks

@ozarkfamilyhomestead 8 месяцев назад

The best deal that I've found is the Great Value generic dishwasher pods at Wal-Mart. I get the 96 count in a plastic cube for $9.98. That breaks down to $0.104 per load. I also like to keep the plastic cubes to use as storage bins out in Shawn's shop. They're pretty large and stack really well, so I feel like I'm getting a little bit of a bonus that way too! :)

@kittyrichards9915 8 месяцев назад

Thank you for taking time to respond. I don't shop much at Walmart, but Kroger is too expensive for this item. I will look next trip to Walmart.

@leetackla4608 8 месяцев назад

Is there any reason why you just didn't build an addition on your home?

@ozarkfamilyhomestead 8 месяцев назад

(from Shawn) The house is half under-ground, built into the side of the hill, with windows across the front for light. Based on the design, it was much cheaper to build a separate building than the complete restructuring of an Earth-berm home.

@danareal3724 8 месяцев назад

Hi, Janice and Shawn, I loved the video! I believe you and Shawn are good people and your children are precious. I read that you had to set up a Paypal because your wish list had been sabotaged and I am sorry to hear that. We only had two children to raise and I can't imagine trying to feed, cloth, and educate a large family. However, this brings me to my question and I mean no harm by it and do not have a tone, I would like to know the need for an outdoor kitchen? To each his own, just curious.❤ Also, thanks for the feedback on making your own broth. I am also going to try your kombucha recipe.

@ozarkfamilyhomestead 8 месяцев назад

(from Shawn) We call it an outdoor kitchen, but that is only one function of the building. It has a wood cookstove and will also have a propane over/range, fridge, sink, etc. that a kitchen would have. This allows canning, processing animals, and large meal preps to occur in a larger area. There will also be a gathering room, to eat, have family events, and our Bible study group. Upstairs will be a bedroom for the boys, freeing up a bedroom in the house for the girls. There will also be a sewing room since Sarah is making clothing. The building will provide needed extra space since our family of 9 has outgrown our home.

@danareal3724 8 месяцев назад
