I was one of the many who chose Crawdad Creek, but I understand why it wasn’t a viable choice due to the infrastructure cost. With that said, I’m not going anywhere. I’m actually even more excited to see what you and your families can do. Anyone can make things happen when they have an unlimited budget. The real excitement is when you are able to overcome those budgetary constraints through the properly application of years of accrued experience..and you folks seem quite capable.

I first watched y'all in squash hallow then when you moved to Kay's parents and you lived in the apt. And then when you moved into the house! And I will be watching when y'all build this one to!!

ONWARD AND UPWARD!! Two people working hard together to achieve a goal are UNSTOPPABLE and anything is possible for those willing to make the sacrifice to get it done. The mountain is BEAUTIFUL!! I suggest you look into the possibility of scouring the property for a natural spring. With the areas holding water like that, its likely you have one or more there. Get yourself someone local, familiar with the territory who has the skill to search it out, to come scout your property for a spring. That would be a fantastic find to spur the building of your future homestead. Worth a look for sure. Blessings and can't wait to see what you folks create there!!

This is so awesome! I think you guys made the right choice. When you guys initially asked which property we thought would be best I’d initially thought crawdad creek, was typing up my response and everything and just… stopped, because I had this funny feeling that my initial response wasn’t really right. With all the facts on the table and what everything would cost, this choice makes a lot of sense and the view. Is. Stunning.

No, look- I wish I had that beautiful property right *now*, not just in five years! I love a beautiful hill, and I love how it's not impossibly steep, it's just so gorgeous all around. And what a nice little creek down by the road! It ain't my business really, nobody else's either, but I would 100% have gone with the mountain myself. I just can't get over the combination of nice, clear woods, and pasture-to-be!

I'm so happy for you for picking beautiful sunny mountain. It will be quicker than five years if you can afford an excavator....dig the swales, catchment ponds, form terraces really quickly. Bring in fodder, water, shelter, electric moveable fencing and put your cows to work gleeing the ponds, breaking up the compacted dirt with their hooves. Put up some shelters with rain water harvesting tanks. Make some Johnson Su bioreactor compost (use weeds if that's all you have), some other biofertilisers. Seed some multi species pasture crops when it rains and pre coat the seeds with biofertilisers. When you have cows, you can turn around really degraded sites in one year if you get rain.

Mom needs sunshine and that’s something you can try to capture at the new home in the way of a sun room or something but the kids playing in the little creek will give her some peace and happiness too.

Yay! I'm excited for you all! I voted for crawdad creek but after the last video explaining the cost of the drive way it definitely wasn't the right choice for your goals. For the cost of getting the driveway in you can have a few wells drilled. We priced one out in CO and it would have started at $12k, but I know things are cheaper out east. It definitely wouldn't hurt to price it out. You can see if you can find information about wells in your area to see the average depth. It's easy to look up in CO as they are permitted through the waterboard of the state so you can see the depth and general locations of all the wells.
