The fruit of your own hard work is the sweetest.

We bought our first property in Georgia. We had beautiful deer in our back yard. We decided to have a gardens so we dug holes and stood railroad ties up. We then took 2x4s and put chicken wire around the top. It was back breaking work but when we finished I told my wife that a giraffe couldn't get in there. The next morning a big buck deer was standing in the garden and I am sure it was laughing at both of us.!!!! Good luck.

Tip for everyone, if you are using soil from your land make a 4X 8 foot screen with a 2X4 every 16 inches then dump dirt through it to get roots and other things out. It really does make a garden much more easier. You can even scrape the garden each year and screen in your soil and mulch, compost in layers right in the garden. It's really a great way to clear out the soil super fast and ready for spreading.

Electric fence only works if you are grounded. Rubber boots will insulate you. But, test it with a piece of green grass in any case. 😊

Garden now looks fantastic after fencing with beautiful gate.Keep working and smiling.

Garden is going to be a nice size. Love the top gate, what a great idea!

I am enjoying watching you two build your homestead in Alaska.

I think it is great that you are starting right out with the high-tunnel and outdoor garden. You get a good idea of what is going to work in your new area 💚

I’m loving it !! Finally catching up on the videos. Miss you.

You're making great progress!

Great job guys!

I just love your videos. Great job

Great work on your garden guys. It looks fantastic. I really hope the fencing works for you. Well done 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰🥰🥰🥰

Great progress so far. Garden is looking good 🎉🎉

That is an awesome fence. Looks great

We visited Alaska in 2011 in our then new motorhome. While in Soldotna, we went to Safeway and saw they had small watermelons for $14.00 each. Your hard work in making the garden will pay off for fresh produce. Great job!

Excellent work!

Y'all seem to be masters at building anything. Great video, thanks for sharing 😊

Getting that garden in before alot of other things is good thinking! I enjoy your channel.

Love the channel, that fence is amazing and your garden is going to flurish xx

Garden is amazing 🇬🇧😊

Great job on fence, all you have worry about is those Alaskan Flying Rabbits!!!

Awesome job on the garden fence, keep it safe.

Nice work on the garden fencing and the raised beds. We hope you have a great harvest! All the best. Barb &Bob from Eagle River,Wi.

garden looks good

On the top gate hinge the pin should point down. A moose can lift your gate off the pins as easy as you put it on. Turn the top pin so it points down and loosen the camp on the gate so you can slide it down and then push it up onto the pin. That will lock the gate so it can't be lifted off the pins.

Enjoying watching here in ENGLAND a nice garden you have built i hope you grow wonderful vegetables🐭🐹🐸🦋

Wow! You guys know how to work and to make good things happen! I hereby dub you Mr. and Mrs. Energizer Bunnyt.

I am still watching your hair in Maine and you were working very hard in a nice job putting up the fence to keep the animals out and your garden looks very good I’m sure you’ll get some nice vegetables off in it so keep up the good work and I will keep watching it you are both hard workers God bless

At 4:07 what a groovy tree in the upper left. It has an almost perfect angle with a cute poof at the top😍.

I look forward to a Q and A when you tell us how you prepped for the trip, equipment acquisition and plans to sell as appropriate, and cash . Nice series

Still catching up on your videos… it’s looking so good!❤❤✌️

That's a nice fence. Keep us posted if something is able to break through it this winter!

I commend you on your garden fence. You both made a wonderful job. I live in Australia so really no need in the suburbs to have fences but out in the countryside you would need to have fences to keep out kangaroos. Good luck I look forward to watching your channel!! Vicki ❤️❤️

Nice job on your fencing

My dog Beau looks exactly like your puppup. He is part Lab and part Great Pyrenees.He loves to lay on his back and chew sticks also.

Vary good job

The sound of machinery, birds singing, people talking, etc. is far more fascinating than loud music that one have to listen to all the time. Please refrain from engaging in this behaviour. lovely woman.🥰🥰🥰

Hello. Looking great with your garden. After your done growing what you are going to grow. It be a good thing to have your Chickens put in there to till up all the plants & they will get to eat the greens & what is in there & bugs to & let them help fertilizer the ground for you. They are great for doing that. just have to look out for the Hocks & Eagles & other birds that pray on them. If you do put them in the garden like that. You would have to put a netting over the top over it. Just a thought for you to thing about. Or when you clean up there coop make a mulch place to put there waste in from the pen, to make it in to Mulch. Any other animals you get also put there waste in the Mulch place you have. & you can use it in your garden. You might want to get black plastic to put over the garden to kill all the weeds so you wont have to do a lot of weeding at all. Hope all goes great in your garden this year.

If you put a extension on the side you can put a greenhouse in it so you can start your plants off sooner seeing that you have used timber around the top all you need for the extension is too use shorter post further out about 8feet and timber around and you can use coragated perspex for the roof you can use clear plastic for the side and change it as you go make cold frame for some of the raised bed so things that are started off with some heat don't go straight out and get stunted

I saw the foraging video and wondered if you have sumac there. Living in Northern WI I loved Sumac tea and its a great source of Vit C.

Loving your channel. One wish is that you would put the date and maybe temp range on your videos. Always curious about when it is happening. Thanks for sharing.

Good job😅

OK now that should do it.

Just catching up on your videos, really impressive work. Hope you are “harvesting” the rabbits for protein and angle braces at the corner posts and either side of the gate would not go astray.

It's hard to explain but I did the same Boo Boo on a cow gate. The Top bolt that You screw in needs to be the opposite so they can not just lift their head up and push the gate off the Hook. Or Nail 2 Blocks above it to do the same thing.

You've grounded out on the post, put single wires on and insulators and attach your hot wire to the single wire I'd put around the outside of fence you have at least four times around starting at three footspace it two feet apart going up

Great garden fence build.🦌🐻👍💪🛠 17:22 Have you considered reaching out to Milwaukie to become brand ambassadors?🤔 Need to watch the chicken coop build to see how you upcycled the old cabin.😮🛠 Will you be making hand made cutting boards, charcuterie boards, etc from some of the wood you've harvested? 😉🤔 it would be a great way for your fans to show their support. 🌞

Hey youngin’s Rev. Paul, Eustis Fl. Where y’all located?? I grew up in Anchorage till grown them lived/worked all over the place lol…. Valdez, Fairbanks, N. Pole, Chitna, Glenallen, Prudhoe Bay, Aleutian chain, panhandle chain, Copper River ect….. some places had no names… lol…. My 3 sons and Pastor Davey/church gave me a bucket list trip there. So much has changed y’all we were 3 of the first to live in Spenard outside of Anchorage WOW my family lived through the 1964 9.2 magnitude earthquake…. my girlfriend & we jumped fissures opening & slamming closed all around us. Sorry being a Preacher tend to get a little long winded…lol.. Rev. Paul, Eustis Fl.

What's that white dog name. Never heard you say. As always be safe and God Bless. Keep up the great videos

Wood ash is excellent fertilizer.

I just found your Channel today and am presently watching you install your 'mooseproof' garden site. I am very impressed so far ....until it was mentioned that you had numerous BUNNIES to contend with. OH BOY ! You had better start digging a trench several feet around the plot ( including the gate) and installing a small meshed strip around the entire circumference so that these naturally able bunnies don't get under your very capable garden fence. Being a Yorkshireman ( now in Vermont) I am very aware of the abilities of BUNNIES to dig deep warrens. Of course you have the presence of the Alaskan deep freeze but the presence of large quantities of rabbits tells me that the have learned to dig when the ground is sofr.

Better doing now then later.😀

You guys need to use ear protection... It doesn't bother you right now, but just wait 20 years... You're doing a great job, keep up the good work.

👍👍👍❤❤❤

I'm told battery has to be off ground to last better

I am loving your videos. I love the dog too!! What is his name?

You need enough electric wire to keep out the climbing critters too.

Curious why when you are building a fence using wood posts, with such wet weather, why you did not appear to use any water proofing agent on the posts beneath ground level.

Just a note. The top fence support should face down so it can’t be picked up without a wrench to loosen the bolt. just fyi

Your starter plants seem so big compared to what we start with here in Texas.Do you have to buy them that way because of the short growing season?

Did hear about the KZfaq creators meetup in big lake Saturday

Where did you guys buy your fence post brackets? They seem more robust then what I usually see.

How do the rabbits survive the winter? I,m from NZ, so pardon my ignorance. My understanding is that rabbits live in burrows, so how do they survive in the long cold winters in Alaska, there would be little food for them. Do they burrow thru the snow to get vegetation?

👍🏻❤️🤗🙏🏻👍🏻🤗👏🏻

Could you or did you save some of the lumber from the old cabin to use in other projects?

You should get your self some safety glasses. have fun!!

👍♥️

I'm curious as to why you didn't concrete the posts in the ground.

Awesome garden, will be fun to watch how it turns out. I probably would have put some concrete in the post holes, but I'm anal like that. And on the bright side, you don't look to have very rocky soil, but you do have icy soil, lol.

Why not edge your beds with dead logs,creates wider usable beds+ grow mushrooms on logs

Make sure to you put corner suports

😇👍👍👍👍👍🙏

what are you carrying for bear protection, maybe a 40 cal.

Put some chains on your skid steer it will give you a lot more grip and you are going to be less likely to get stuch

Your dog looks happy.

Where do you guys sleep when you’re not working on your projects?

Would an electric fence work better?😊😮

Postavite leseno oporo še v sredini ali na tleh ograde.lp.

Looks like a prison fence haha. Now all you need is some barbedwire and some murderers 😂😂😂

You need a permit to hunt moose ,but what about rabbits ?

Your garden has more security than a prison 😆😆😆

hey even down here in the lower 48 states we are all growing gardens because it costs so much to eat veggies because who is in the white house

sorry to see you burn the cabin ,,,,,,,,that was someone's life

Oh yeah I forgot to tell y’all about the 7 yr cycle of rabbit, die off from diseases, can be nasty y’all…. Just sayin…..

I don’t need the drama of the music.

Please don't give away the whole video with an opening shot of the finished product. It's discouraging to sit through to wait for the finished product. Ultimately, I understand it's your video

Oh my word your posts look so unstable. It worries me a little.
