What is sad is that we have moved so far away from are past that we now need to have conference‘a like this to learn how to raise animals and vegetables that was the way just a normal way of life for are ancestors a few generations ago. I am 60 and this was normal life for both of my parents growing up.

This conference was set at a critical time when chickens are in the news. Thank you for sharing.

Great to see so much enthusiasm among such a diverse group of people. Kind of surprised the IRS and USDA haven't infiltrated these types of gatherings yet......

This was really fun to watch Jason. You were really in your element! I loved seeing the chicken purse! That was so cool to see you meet John Suscovich! Cute balloon chicken transfer race! It's hard to get the lungs out of a turkey. Not so hard with a chicken. I didn't know they made a lung remover! I kind of liked that vacation chicken tractor mover! I'm sure you were a great speaker Jason! You gave great advice. Just get the chickens! I was so worried setting up the chickens before I got them and I over thunk it! I had never known about APPA. Thanks for this!

Nice to see your subscriber number has taken another decent leap. Way to go.

What a great conference - so glad you all have another learning resource and can make connections. Jason - you do very well at interviewing people! Thanks for posting this video. God bless.

Great Job Jason!!!😇

Jason, You did such a good job on this video! So informative and professional while still being entertaining! Best conference video ever!

This was probably the best conference we attended. Very well organized and put together. I'm glad we got the chance to chat with you since we didn't get to chat much at the Homestead Festival.

I am excited to see where you take your homestead. When you had Justin over to see your pastures and he was like, you should go for it! And you did, I knew your journey was about to get really good. And yep, you should go for it! xoxo

We just have 5 hens in the backyard but somehow we feel a sense of belonging and community, thanks to your great videos and all the other homesteaders documenting their work. I know it's a lot of hard work to be constantly filming and creating interesting content; thanks for keeping going!

Stromberg’s. Wow. I ordered a book on bantam breeds from Stromberg’s in 1971. I was 12!

Thanks for sharing Jason!🤗

Hi Jason, you and Lorraine will have a fantastic 2023 and I look forward to following your homesteading growth. ❤️

Awesome job Jason.

This is awsome hopfully this will help make the equipment like the plucker more available in the future at at a better price and built better.

Thanks for taking us on your trip and for this video!

The cage at the beginning of the vlog is the one Al Lumnah recently got... It looks amazing!

Jason, of all the events you have been to that you have shown this was the best. I learned a lot and was happy you got information on so many vendors that I will be checking out for sure. And yes I'm interested in attending this next year myself. We'll done. And fyi, the short bit I saw of your stand up looked great. Be proud of yourself, you deserve it 👏. Have a great day 🌤 😀 👍🐓🦃🦆

Thanks for sharing Jason, I was nervous for you also lol. Great job covering the event.

I have been a fan of your videos from the start and your family inspires me to do more myself even though I'm much older than you. You have a very wholesome way of showing us what you're doing, not like a know it all but more like a friend, and the funny things you do are wonderfully real.

Great video! I had hoped to attend this year so maybe next year. This video was great!! We’ve entering our 3rd year with raising our own meat chickens and we’ve learned so much from you!!

Thanks Jason for taken us all along Loved it .

Thanks for taking us along. It was inspiring.

It's hard to find a cooler person than Jason!!!

Such a valuable confrence. I appreciated how willing they are to share their knowledge with all levels. You sharing this should increase the attendance for next year. Thanks, Jason.

Look at you. From a desk in a little cubicle to beating cancer to being an expert speaker and teacher. Thank you so much for not giving up. Something tells me your wife had alot to do with this. And the little baby that gave hope to a difficult situation who grew up into a wonderful, helpful young lady. Well, I'm turning into a bucket of mush.

Great video as always. I'm thinking about going next year. Good to see John S., I miss his videos. Wish he would start making them again.

This was very interesting ,Jason thanks for your hard work:-)

I was a first-time attendee at the APPPA conference and will never miss another one! You did a phenomenal job with your presentation. Thank you so much for sharing your story and taking the time to chat after. If you ever decide to mentor, I would love to learn from you!

Thanks for sharing. Its great to see. Also the comment you made in your presentation about the flannel was hilarious and so true.

SUCH IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR TIMES LIKE THESE! THANKS JASON

Great video Jason!! I'm always amazed to see more and more people attending every year. Good job 👍👍

Jason great video!! Man great to see Suscovich he has really been MIA on the YoutTube scene! Thanks for sharing!!

So good I will watch it again🤗🤗🤗

Good job, Jason!

You have a great sense of humor and know how to deliver a good line to get us tickled!!

Jayson you Rock !

Enjoyed the video. It was great getting to meet you.

Great Field Trip, Jason! I hope to move closer to daughter so this would definitely be an event I'd go to! And WOW, channel grow there!!

I wish I knew about this! I would have tried to make it. Next year

Thanks Jason for sharing the video that was so nice and so informative!!

This is the most informative video I’ve seen in a while. Love love love all your videos! Very motivating😁Thank you for all you do and share!

Jason great loved it.

I'm an Aussie who has been trapped in Commiefornia (for various reasons) for over 30 years; currently residing in a 'box' (track housing in a HOA). My hubby and I are FINALLY beginning the search to move, hopefully to NC. Your videos inspire me greatly and keep me going (sometimes through tears) knowing that even in my 50s, I CAN (with God's help) do this!

Most enjoyable . . . your talk seem like it was going to be fun . . . so happy to see this movement grow . . . in my childhood I experienced the end of the previous homestead lifestyle. Cheers.

Thanks for sharing.

Was great meeting you there. Hope to run into you again next year.

Interesting conference I was really liking the egg washer that was pretty neat...

This was so informative and encouraging. Loved having the behind the scenes view as I could see a conference like this being intimidating.

Thank you for this great info for someone did not know about APPPA

Awesome Jason!

Thanks good video , I started out of school 1957 packing eggs, I love the feel of eggs, I now just have 5 hens and a pair of geese, Had at one time geese. chickens. goats, cows. sheep rabbits and yes Pigs, Your right I m still learning new things, about farming, to bad no Y T when I had my Farm, would have loved the chicken tractors

This is great! I’m wanting to start raising pastures poultry this year! Thanks!!!

Very interesting! Great job everyone!

I wished I could've attended. Injury & lack of money.

I plan on growing chickens so I guess I also plan on buying flannels, at least for my husband❣️

Just a wonderful video enjoy your weekend Rosa olbera

This conference looks informative. I will have to go next year

That looked like a great conference, Jason. I do hope you get to go to the conference every year from now on. I know from personal experience, in attending work related conferences, you never come back home without having learned some new things to make your own experience more rewarding. Thanks for sharing this one with us and have a Blessed day.

Great information, and thank you for taking the time to share.

I absolutely loved this video Jason👍🏼 I’m an old school farming gal that just loved some of the new ideas! Some were a little far fetched for me, but still some good ideas! Ty

Great video, Jason... FYI... Let the young folk know.... I will NEVER watch tik tok ...EVER........ I was so glad to see highlights of the conference. Very well done...

Awesome 💪 Thanks friend!!

Very interesting the more you learn about what’s available the better you are able to build efficiency although some of it looks beyond the average farmers ability to afford despite being marketed to them. Seems counterintuitive to me. But what do I know I’m still in the dreaming of owning property one day stage! 🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦

Great video your the best. Thanks for sharing.

I just love your content and enthusiasm. Love you guys.

thanks for the video.. really enjoyed all the information.

Very motivating, thank you from Australia. We can’t sell pasture raised poultry here unless they are still moving but we can raise for ourselves who live on the property, legally. Very controlled here.

Enjoyed that! Love your videos 😃

I bet the conference was very informational and fun.

Interesting conference. I may attend this next year

Stromberg's has several different locations. Very convenient. This video is great!!!

OH MY GOD When I heard on your channel you were in Texas I was so SAD I Wish I could of met you!!!! Next Year let us know if you come I live in North Texas I been following since you moved from California. You inspire me in the past to move to my homestead it's been hard but I did it love you I feel that in the future you will probably start to sell chickens!!!! You and your Wife are AMAZING!!!

Love the fun 💚🌞

Great Vid Jason. You are really going places! I watch many people who buy chicken feed from TS & their chickens hav stopped laying eggs, & wen they started feeding feed they made themselves, they started laying again. Im sure its just a councidence.

Great information! Thank you for sharing.

Amazing!

That was fun! Thx Blessings, julie

Such a great conference for like minded people

Thanks for sharing

Thank you

That chicken tractor is nice but what about uneven ground?

Awesome thank you

I want to go next year! Looks awesome!

Real interesting.

Great video!!!!!!

Looks like you did a great job! -Mike

I wish I knew how to find out where our resources are in Indiana for wholesome farmer's markets. I would MUCH rather buy from a local farmer than a grocery store!

Very interesting.

This is soo cool!

AWESOME..thx

Apoarently , you have to be nervous before performing, it makes you better at what you have to do and say . 😁

Enjoy this ❤❤❤❤
