Beata my dad cut firewood all the time. Instead of pouring out of that big jug try this. Take a dawn dish soap bottle and put your oil in it. Just pull the top and squeeze. Easy way to fill the oil tank. He also carried everything in a 5 gallon bucket. Extra chain, jug of bar oil, marking stick, marking crayon, wedges,hatchet,hammer, files, bar wrench, and cloth rags. If a fire starts just dump everything out and you can haul water with the bucket. Have a blessed day.

Just a suggestion. Get some marker tape. Non sticky like pink, and mark the trees that you planted. This will allow you to keep track of where they are.

So lucky with the free wood!! Lots of work though. I like your thought on gardens are not perfect, so true! Yes, be careful with the Oregano - can be such a good herb, but such a horrible weed, you will never be able to get rid of it, it will invade and kill other plants. So smart with the gas, it will save you money. Definitely a good opportunity to clean the swamp. I am sure the beavers will be back. But watch out as they might like your new little trees as yummy food, so that would be a delicate balance between them, your lake, and your trees.

@@SimpleLivingwithBiata I don't think chicken wire will help your trees from the beavers, as I know racoons can chew through it. (not strong - made for chickens), however I use hardware cloth (funny name, but actually wire) for my chickens, to keep vermin out. I think the hardware cloth would be strong enough to at least deter a beavers' strong chewing. Good luck. Love watching you!

Hello great job on all the planting! May I humbly give you a suggestion? Knowing that you have a lot of deer in your area, it would be wise to put a wire cage of protection around the trees as high as a deer could reach, as they will eat anything they can reach. They seem to love new growth from our experience. We use 2 inch by 4 inch "dog" wire. Can't wait to see your garden grow!

You are an amazingly energetic young lady. Your trees and garden should grow well in that fertile soil. The beaver dam is probably gone forever. They do not usually stay in one place forever. They tend to build a new dam in a different location every other year or so. Your wetland should be very green and beautiful before the summer is over so clean as much brush as you can out now to make it look more beautiful. You got a lot of beautiful tongue and groove wood for free and windows and doors. That is probably a couple of thousand dollars you saved. Great find.

So interesting about the beavers! I’ve chatted with a few neighbours and they have said it’s not the first time the dam has broken but it typically fills back up within a few months! I’m also seeing a lot of beaver prints on the newly drained dam so I’m hopeful! Thank you so much for the info and the compliments and for watching!

You have so much wood on your property. Look into making your own wood pellets for a pellet stove. Or just go old school and get a wood stove. But those need refilled every 4-6 hours. That's why the pellet stoves are better. You make awesome videos. Nice work.

@@SimpleLivingwithBiata I've always thought after I get my homestead up and running to make a little shop to make the pellets. Half my property is heavily wooded and it's right next to the freemont national forest in Oregon. Lots of wood everywhere. You just need to get the wood down to a powder. So a couple different machines to grind up the wood in small peaces then a second one that turns it into more of a powder. Then the last machine compresses the wood into little pellets. The heat helps keep the pellets together. Those pellet stoves are definitely the way to go. You can keep the house heated over night without needing to get up to toss wood on the fire. Then if you make a bunch of pellets you can even sell them for a little side money.

Biata, good on you for buying the 2 cycle engine oil and mixing it with gasoline. Some advice that I learned the hard way: It's good to use premium gasoline but if you only use a little and leave it sit in your chainsaw, the ethanol will make the gasoline go bad after a while. I learned the hard way and I'm paying for it. My chainsaw still doesn't run well after costly repair. It's back at the shop. I only run non-ethanol gasoline now. That way, I don't have to use up all the gasoline right away. Keep up the hard work. You're an inspiration of diligence. I look forward to your videos on Sunday. I like watching the subscriber count go up too. :-)

I think a coyote got it 😢. It does look like we have other beaver activity though and the dam seems fixed but the water will take a while to fill again 😢. The dam broke naturally.
