Can THIS Jumpstart Our UTV?
Sometimes... things don't always go like you plan on a farm or homestead. In this case, our UTV wouldn't start, so instead of breaking out the heavy battery jumper... I used a new tool that's MUCH better.

Why Our Food Forest is on the Verge of Collapse
We have a food forest that we planted in the early spring that has become overrun with weeds and the trees aren't growing. We need to get it cleaned up and protected from the deer that will soon be looking for small trees to rub their antlers on as they come into rut. However, things didn't go quite as planned when we tried to use an estate sale trimmer to do the work.

RESPECT!! 😱🤯Dump Truck SKILLS
Paving the driveway in traditional ways in rural areas is typically cost prohibitive, so most people use rock. This driver was so awesome... he laid down a even and consistent layer while cruising at 25mph! That's talent!!!
