Follow our journey as we renovate an abandoned ancient old farmhouse we bought and creating a off grid homestead by being self-sufficient growing our own food and creating an orchid for fruit, managing our own fire wood with our two woodlands to give us free heating and hot water and making every thing we need in our renovation like the doors, windows, floors, staircases, Kitchen, panelling, bathroom, porch, and many more projects as I’m a Carpenter & Joiner using my skills to build this dream which you can see in lots of our videos we have all ready loaded up on our channel and also we will be sharing our crafts and also Tracy will be doing all the soft furnishings in our farm house on our homestead. So come join Tracy and I Budo on this amazing journey and way of living.

  1. Kitchen is coming along nicely…won’t be long now. Tracey, your garden looks so nice. I really admire all the work you put in…your flowers are just spectacular. I don’t know how you accomplish so much. You and Budo are better working together than my late husband and I were. I remember the last time he made home made noodles he said, “I promise if you help me with the electric cutter, I won’t get mad and yell at you.” I still chuckle thinking about it and his little boy facial expression as he said it. You see he was Italian and I was Irish and I just couldn’t seem to get it right when we tried a joint task…you two are obviously better suited working together for this type of work. He and I were married 50 years and now he’s gone and after 8 years I still miss him. Thanks for reminding me of a little memory into my wedded bliss…PS at least I’m not still seeing the man playing bagpipes in your lavender field. Watching from PA, USA.

  2. Loved your show today. You two are certainly a good team working together. I could watch your shows all day long. Take care and try to rest some. Tell next time.😊

  3. You have a very productive garden, we have sweet pea envy the smell must be so nice. The home made black gold fertilizer is working well. Great team work with the plasterboard. Have a lovely weekend both.

  4. You work together so well. I can not do anything right when I do a job. I stained and varnished the trim to get the kitchen completed, but my other half does not like my work. The trim just sits and nothing is done. You are lucky Tracy that Budo lets you help without criticising you. Your kitchen is going to be up and running in no time at all and Tracy can put her kitchen together and then start cooking classes for us.

  5. Shouldn't the plasterboard be 10mm off the finish floor to stop water creeping up the plasterboard in the event of water spillage or cleaning the floor, that what we detail in the uk.

  6. Bonjour Tracy and Budo, OMG the plaster board is up, Yay… moving along. Tracy you will be cooking very soon and making Budo his favorite ice cream. First " just stand there and look pretty" I love that Budo said that to you. The garden is amazing, that Zucchini was huge. Well done. Love from N.Y.
