Homesteading Journey: Thank You for 2015

My Homesteading Journey:
Growth in 2015

My online life is what you see here. This blog, my social media accounts and my homesteading journey documented on YouTube. All of this is nothing without you! Yes, right out of the gate I want to thank you for sharing this time with me. YOU have been the backbone of my success online.

My Homesteading Journey Success is nothing without you!

This year in 2015 my blog was visited over 75,000 times from 177 different countries. My YouTube channel has almost reached 11,000 subscribers and has been viewed over 2,000,000 times! My Facebook page has over 2300 Likes, Instagram has over 700 followers, Pinterest, Google+ and Twitter have all seen an increase in traffic and followers. YOU are to credit!

I can never repay you…

Many of you have sent me words of encouragement throughout this year. That has meant so much to me. Several of you have been very kind and donated seeds, books and even money for some of my efforts in my family and on the farm. I can never repay you for that. Your engagement in all of this has given me so much energy to continue offering up this content!

Share the Homesteading Journey

Please continue to share this encouragement. I would love to hear from you in the comments of this post your stories, thoughts and concerns. We can build a community to help each other. I am only one, You are only one, but together we can be MANY!

Chose Love

May 2016 be great! Choose Love.

And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.  – Colossians 3:14

  1. Thank you Blake for all the sharing you do. I’ve so enjoyed watching DaddyKirbs grow and look forward to 2016. Give you family my love and best wishes.

  2. Sounds like a great year for you Blake! Just found your blog through HBN 🙂 Hope you have a happy new year and that there is lots in store for you for 2016!

  3. Hi, I just found you on YouTube and subscribed. We plan on doing a back to Eden method garden this year as we start our off grid homestead. We are moving into a log cabin and I see here you live in one too. Do you have any log cabin tips and or ideas as far as maintenance and such?
    Thanks Sohiamia

    1. We have lived in this log cabin for 5 years now. So far there has been little to worry about. I have filled some cracks with caulking, but that’s it. Take a look at some sites that sell the caulking specific to log cabins. I guess there are good ones and not so good ones. In which climate are you going to live off-grid? I’m sure that makes a difference to the type of maintenance your home will need. Thank you for joining me on my journey! I look forward to hearing more as you take your journey as well!
