Alastair's Viewing On YouTube


I watch several channels in the evening on a regular basis and so hope you find this list useful. They are of various lengths some will be half an hour or longer and others perhaps just 10 minutes and sometime around an hour. So hope you find this of interest and feel free to add a comment to this page if you'd like to share your own favourite YouTube channels. I might add that the below videos come out at various times. Some only every month or so, some one a week and a few several times a week.

Farming and Homesteading

  1. Lumnah Acres
    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_1nZUpPS6jFv5Pn3f85CaA
    A Guide to Modern Homesteading Self-Sufficiency and FREEDOM. We love Homesteading and the control it offers with growing our own food, raising our own animals and of Course the FREEDOM it provides! I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find a better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas of my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much more! Have just purchased a 500 acre property, mostly wooded with 2 ponds, and so will be interesting to see what they do with it. Usually post 3 videos a week.

Follow us as we continue to develop our property into a working homestead. I will do my best to post at least two to three videos a week.

I spend most of my time at the moment making things that will be beneficial for the future projects such as a water wheel/turbine a wind turbine, woodworking benches and holding tools.

Just a Few Acres is a 45 acre seventh generation family farm in Lansing, NY, in operation since 1804. We are a diversified livestock farm, providing high quality, healthy meats directly to consumers in our community. All our livestock is grown using a grass-based diet, and we focus on a low-stress life for our animals. We operate our farm using sustainable practices, building healthier soil every year through innovative grazing methods. We believe a small family farm can still be a viable business in today’s “bigger is better” world, and that small farms supplying locally grown food to their communities can create a more resilient, healthy, and meaningful agricultural system.

  27. Erik Grankvist
    https://www.youtube.com/@ErikGrankvist
    Sometimes we hear a call from nature. When I was 18 years old I ventured out alone with only a backpack full of simple hand tools to actualize my dream. Build my own traditional off grid log cabin by hand from the materials of the Swedish wilderness. Just like our ancestors. I had no previous experience in building, gathering materials or filming. So I started studying myself the old arts and learning from my grandfather and mentor Ĺke Nilsson. I began to cut down trees and film with my phone, learning as I go. My project started full time once I graduated high school in summer 2019. I film everything myself and edit these videos so you can follow my journey and hopefully learn as I do.

    https://www.youtube.com/@VideosofIrishFarmingLife/
    Videos of Irish Farming Life showcases the vast collection of farming and rural history videos produced by John Thompson Video Productions. We have been making these videos for over 30 years, long before social media and when the only medium for our videos were the bulky vhs tapes which are becoming as much of a memory as the farming practises featured throughout our films! Our farming videos look back to a time in Ireland’s past when farming was the main occupation in the countryside, to a time when farmers used horses to till the land and harvest their crops. We re-create the farming years of the 1920's through to the 1960's showing the growing of popular crops back then such as oats, barley, potatoes and flax.

  40. Harry's Farm
    https://www.youtube.com/@harrysfarmvids
    After doing holiday jobs on a few farms, I knew this was what I really wanted to do. After 4-years of study at Shuttleworth Agricultural Collage in 1980, I left with an HND and a job as a on-farm grain-buyer in the Beds and Bucks area with a company called Grainec. I loved this job but I still wanted to be a proper farmer one day, so started taking on small parcels of grassland and buying ewes with lambs at foot to fatten up. I soon discovered sheep farming was too time consuming to keep the day job so turned my attention to taking on arable land, using contractors to work the land to allow me to expand quicker. I'd noticed a few of the farmers I was dealing with felt trapped on their farms because it was impossible for them to take time off, so I offered to take the land on for a year to give them a break. The first farm I took on was 242ac in 1985, by 1990, this has grown to over 1000ac.
  41. Sh!t: We bought a farm
    https://www.youtube.com/@sht-farm
    We're Jess & Dan and we've jumped into the absolute abyss of home renovation. It really was a case of Shit, we bought a farm... now what!? The farm we ended up buying is an old dairy-turned-beef cattle farm in Scotland. It's seen much better days. Because there is no chance of a mortgage at present, we have a special deal with the seller in which we have exactly 2 years from the date of entry to get the property under finance, or we lose the whole lot and end up bankrupt. The stakes couldn't be higher, but we have a plan, a small pot of funding and a vision for where our dream home will end up. The question is, can we do it?

We all feel so much better when we have achieved something especially if it is outside be it a little weeding, repotting, making a raised bed or making a hot drink in the shed and enjoying it whilst having ideas about the next thing we are going to do on the allotment and on our channel which we sincerely hope you enjoy watching.

    If you are a fan of everything Royal, then I’ll be dishing on food favorites from my fifteen years rattling pans in the royal kitchens as chef to The Queen, Princess Diana and Princes William and Harry. If you just love food, then you will love the dishes I prepare from elaborate menus for entertaining to simple TV dinners and sharing tips and stories along the way to keep it fun! Starting out in my commercial kitchen in Dallas I’ll be checking out food halls and markets, what to buy, what not to buy, what’s good and what not but always putting my royal chef twist on all the dishes I prepare.

  18. Scotland History Tours
    https://www.youtube.com/c/ScotlandHistoryTours
    Hi, I'm Bruce. I make Scotland History Tours videos to tell you tales from Scotland's past and give you information about key dates in Scottish history. It's Scottish history for dummies and Scottish history with a smile. Not all videos are tales from Scotland's history, some of them are about men from Scotland's past or women from Scotland's past. I try to relate the stories to places to visit on a historical day out in Scotland. Basically the people who made Scotland. As one of Scotland history tour guides people ask: Help me plan a Scottish holiday, or help me plan a Scottish vacation of your country from the US. So from April 2020 I've tried to give a bit of history, but some places of interest in Scotland as well.

    https://www.youtube.com/@NolaCrewe-THOUGHTS/about
    When COVID shut the doors of our church, St Monica’s in Toronto, Canada, looked for a new way to serve the Parish and its missional mandate. Many churches with great resources and talents offered up inspiring services of music and worship and we encourage our members to join in. What we felt was missing and an appropriate niche for St Monica’s was to offer up thoughts and generate discussion on what living as a Christian means today. The struggles and challenges, the joys and satisfactions. And so we offer up our THOUGHTS on a SUNDAY MORNING each week.
