We like the quiet days of winter. The farm slows down and we get to spend time on other activities, as well as taking care of the animals. This video follows us on a day of winter life.

There's something about the hay rake sitting partly covered in snow against the backdrop of the grey winter sky that brings everything to a peaceful standstill. ~~Jeff in CT
thx
Thanks for sharing.
Very nice! BTW, it was so eye-opening to see how many eggs you have washed by hand. It makes us appreciate the work that goes into delivering truly farm fresh products from small farms. Well worth the premium!
Give your Egg Washer a HUGE RAISE!
8:23 I just watched this video, I love the life. Peaceful on a down day and still peaceful on a busy day even when Patty is yelling.â¤â¤
Great video! Love your channel
At 3:19 My wife and I never sit facing one another, at home or at a restaurant as it’s not natural to oppose someone you love. We always sit elbow to elbow, facing the same obstacles, together in the same direction.
It does make a difference and after 20 years we heard that it’s something that European couples always do.
I’d like to take you on a journey…if I may….
I’m a retired electrician and I really enjoy your videos since discovering them this past summer. Pete. I’d like to ask a question about Hillary’s egg washing count. Does it include the cracked eggs that you keep for your family? Because if you’re eating a three egg omelette every morning, atop of the number for the rest of your family’s consumption, she’s washing a lot more than your 40 plus thousand; at the time of this video. Keep the videos coming.
I love your quiet time in the winter. I agree with you about wood heat. It warms you up like no other!!
It seems so peaceful in the winter
Watching this relieves my stress in life. The joy of simple life.
Just curious does your cat Ezara get to come to enjoy the wood stove heat?
wooden geared clock! So cool!
I love your videos!! shows the true nature of living off the land
Thanks for sharing.
Have you ever done a wood chopping video? Love the channel, you got a wicked little small holding,
I agree! I love the slower winter days. Your home looks peaceful…I like that! Our home is peaceful too.
Awesome video. Not very exciting but a really interesting subject. Thanks for all your videos!
Love the sound of the clocks a a good fire. That’s a lot of egg washing! Eggcelent
Oh my God praise the Lord 40 mm wash my hand oh my God that's all I got to say love your videos I have learned so much about farming from you and I'm from an island in Alaska
Thank you for bringing back a lot of memories as I was a child
Could the clocks wood gears have fluctuations from winter to summer from humidity? Here in Virginia our wood doors shrink / swell so they won’t shut in summer and let air in winter! Just a thought. I so enjoy your stories.
Does the wood stove heat the whole house? If so, how do you transfer the heat to the other rooms in the house? Nice video and keep up the good work!
I had a mini farm in Portageville, and it brings back memories. I do wonder: where do you sell the eggs in winter? Thanks.
What's tougher than owning a farm ….. Owning a farm in areas where it snows
My Grandmother told me too never wash the Egs, because off disturbing the little Wachs protection. The Eg will faster dry out and you can ceep it less longer. What's your Opinion.?
I wouldn’t trade the small farm life for anything.. it IS the most peaceful and it IS the most rewarding. Love your videos Pete.
Just discovered you last week. Am really enjoying your farm, how you keep and relate to the livestock, your reflections, even the jokes! A real pleasant experience to see the variety, too. Keep it up!
I know Summer 2021 is now upon us, but I find myself wishing I could give this a second thumbs up! ðŸ‘ðŸ‘🖖
You should lie like the government and say that you’re organic for the morons that actually believe something like they actually exists. Great video Pete! A year later.
you'd think after buying all those clocks he'd have accumulated enough time to fix them
42,000 eggs is a lot of eggs to wash. I am glad you figured out the verge on the Seth Thomas clock which will make the clock keep better time. Thanks for sharing some of your winter home life.
You and your family are wonderful l respect what you do and always look forward to watching your videos. Thank you from Chattanooga,Tn.
Enjoying your videos Pete, thank you for sharing your life with us.
I note that you mix white and brown eggs. Is this deliberate because that is what your customers want or do they just not mind. In this country if you did that the uproar of complaint would be huge as most people are very fussy about their eggs with brown being favored but those who like white will yell if there is a brown one in their carton. We are just seeing the blue eggs in the farmers markets here but not in main stream yet.
Love the alarm clock. With that and the daily repetition of your farm routines, this reminds me of the movie Groundhog Day, in a good way.
One of my favorite videos to date
