We are building an off grid homestead on a remote island in southeast Alaska. Our goal is to become more self sufficient and self reliant buy growing our food, raising our own food and though hunting and fishing.
We put videos out every Sunday on CZcams to bring you a little slice of Alaska.

What a beautiful day to be working outside and prepping the garden beds. 🇦🇺 fan.
It really is!
Awesome video of you both...Love seeing the view of the Mountains and the water..Seeing Robin's here I know spring is just around the corner. You both have a great day.
Good to see you two out & enjoying the warmer weather. Can't wait to see the garden this year 😊
Hey Jewles.
We can’t wait either.
We love the fencing you put up around the garden beds.
Thank you
We’re a little warmer than you guys and we still got frost every night during that sunny week. I was busy covering everything in the greenhouse with blankets!!! Some of the cool weather plants are fine as long as they have some protection 😊🌱 Hope that you have a great gardening summer!
This week the forecast calls for lows in the low 40s. My wife is going to plant some stuff this week. We will keep our fingers crossed 🤞
Hope you have a successful season as well.
Morning, just had a knee replacement. Here in MI. it was 35 yesterday a/m. And wed night 31 (frost). Our nieghbor has given us permission to put a small garden on his extra lot. Can't wait. Wife has everything started already. Living free brother. Is your misses alright. She's about to disappear. She really shed some pounds. Wow.
Congrats on the garden, that’s awesome. Hopefully you have a speedy recovery with the knee surgery.
All the best
Hi guys, rhubarb dies off very year and the crown is still alive until the dirt. Doesn't like to be moved, just add compost year. Cheers chrissy from New Zealand
Once again, spectacular views from your property...Your probably used to it but what a way to wake up to every morn...You folks garden always turns out nice...Look forward to seeing the results of it...Stay safe, be well....

Good morning Brian and Diana👋👋. We are still cold here on Cape Cod but I can’t wait for warmer weather. When prepping gardens it gets you excited to start the garden. Hope you chicken gets better. Good luck with your gardens. Nothing like fresh veggies. Have a blessed day. See you again soon✌️🇺🇸❤️❤️
Thank you Charlene. We hope you get some warmer weather soon.
Looking good you two. Fruit trees would be a great addition to your place. Take care.
Just picked them up. Hopefully they survive.
Glad yo hear from you. Dianas garden gets better every year so i can’t wait to see how it turns out. You are both looking younger every video. Praying you have a Great year !! Have a Great week and Thanks for sharing !!
Thank you Mary
Been a while since one of yoru videos popped up in my feed. Not sure why because I'm a subscriber but just wanted to comment and say you two look great! Mrs. Alaska Homestead is inspirational with all that weight loss!!!
Thank you
A few weeks ago you repaired your Honda generator. In that video you referred to the Mountain Mariner. I looked him up andwas hooked. I thinnk I have seen all his two year collection, a new one came out today. Edmund definately has a different lifestyle.. Have a blessed day.
He did have a new one out today. Pretty cool seeing a snow machine dropped off by a chopper.
Y'all could go ahead & plant cold weather seeds, like cabbages, kale, broccoli, brussels sprouts, radishes, etc, now 😁
Glad to see you 2 again!
Thanks Martna
You both looking good nice to see yous
Thank you 😊
The garden looks great. We all want to plant early.
Have a great week you two..!!
Ha ain’t that the truth
The view across the water is stunning.
We love it
Ya'll have the green garden itch...😂 They'll do phenomenal this season, I can feel it. You know you can take the recoil pull cord off the motor and just wind a cord on the flywheel right? It'll get you back in the game..😅 Love ya'll ❤
That’s true.
@@AnAlaskaHomestead Now you're cooking with oil...lol
Good to see you guy's again. Its definitely that time of year.
It sure is
Hello. It's always nice when the Robin's return. I haven't seen any on the Kenai yet. Although I did hear a Thrush a few weeks ago. Maybe those Robin's that took off on you on the beach are headed my way. 😂Another sign of spring is the return of the Seagulls. Those returned here on the 24th of March. In 13 years of living on the Kenai, I've yet to see a Hummingbird. Happy gardening my friend! Good to see you.
I’ll try to send some robins your way ASAP😂👍
Play always told me to wait till after mother's Day then you can plant
Missed seeing you guys, hope all is well with you both.
Thank you
I still have a foot of snow on the ground. ha ha I guess when you are several hundred miles south, the climate is different. Thanks for sharing.
Being south and on the ocean helps 😂
Starting the season hear too. Planted the garden yesterday. Almost 90 degrees last week but we have received the Juneau weather we requested - 50 and rain today, LOL. By the way will be there for the second half of August. Planning to stay at Sonie's for a day or 2.
That’s awesome. We need to stop by and see them this summer too.
Hope you two and your wife's mother are doing well. I cannot wait for salmon and trout fishing.
Me too
It's nice and sunny down there. :)
So exciting to get a garden ready, good luck with yours!! I hope you can keep all the critters out. Do you still worry about slugs? Diana looks like she's lost weight, pretty as always. Time to eat pasty butt? I'm looking forward to your fishing outings. Stay safe, stay healthy and have a great week!!
Diana has lost 62 lbs so far she feels so much better now. I’m so proud of here.
Working on the greenhouse, getting excited to start! Seen hummingbirds and seen Sandhill cranes all this week, no rain for the last 5 days, cloudy today, so getting set up for the growing season. thanks for sharing your video.
Awesome. Good luck this season👍
Gllad to see you guys again. Live Free.
wondered why the fence causr your on an island then i saw the chickens now i no why!! the recoil on my mill didnt work so i just used a rope on the pulley and started it that way for years glad to see you guys again hope the garden goes well
Good practices with the poll starts with those spring in em that always break and stuff is get the old fashioned part it goes on the flywheel that you you can wrap a rope around and pull it that way I always have one on hand so if I got to get a new spring all they have to do is take the cover off bolt the wrap around part on and then at least you can still use your motor You probably know just as well as I do is when you're using those spring poll starts ropes and the springs always end up breaking sooner or later
Welcome back good to see you again
Thank you
Hey Kids!!❤❤❤❤
Hey Leslie
Doesn't feel like Spring here at all in SW Ohio.
Waiting for hummingbirds to come to my area in Ohio.
You might give your hen bit of mineral oil and some ACV to her water.
Yes. We’ve been giving her some.
Love the video mate keep it up Thank you
Thanks, will do!
Tell that Rooster to Hush, I'm trying to comment :)
😂
Awesome! 👍🇨🇦😎
Thanks 👍
🥰🥰🥰
One thing about rhubarb never cut it. Twist and pull it out, so it will spread and make more. If you cut it you will stunt it and it will only produce just a few stalks not even enough for a pie.
Good to know 👍
So, gotta question about the netting you put around the garden area. Why did you put it on the inside of your posts? Cause the animals, if they try to get into the garden, will be pushing in. It would be better to put it on the outside of the posts, wouldn't it?
Yes it would. The electric fence should keep all the big animals out of the garden. I put it on the inside so we can take it down in the winter.
I am trying to go to dual purpose chickens and then you can eat them when they're done laying eggs after they're two years got a couple barred rocks but they're so mean they don't like the rooster to jump on them they beat him up made the mistake and bought some chickens from the feed store they were supposed to be Easter egger and a couple other ones that lay colored eggs turned out to be part silky chickens complained about it to their head office and yeah they gave me $20 back but the cost to raise those to find out they were just silkies was much more than $20 so I stopped buying chickens and finally got a big rooster out of incubate my own eggs got to get a new incubator my mind's no good bought a cheap one off of Amazon only word once take the parts out of it made my own styrofoam cooler can't get the humidity to stay but we'll work it out just take time
Good luck. Our rooster is a barred rock, maybe that’s why he’s so mean😂
I say that you'll have lost a lot of weight.Yeah look absolutely marvelous
Thank you 😊
i spy with my little eye some one is 😁losing some weight and it looks really good 😍😁😍🥰😁😇 not saying who wink wink✌✌
