The Average Joe's 1 Acre Homestead

09/10/2026

Some people criticized my post a few days ago about trading work for a 🐎, and knowledge.

I have never been an asker, I just do for myself, however, I also believe that if you don't ask, you're never going to receive, and possibly miss out on amazing opportunities.

I had a reply to my post that led me to take a drive out to Wayfinder Farm where I got the chance to meet someone who might actually be more into nature than I am, we speak at the same speed, and love using pallets to build what we need. 😂

I got to take a walk through some of their trails where I was amazed at all the life living in their woods, I saw so many types of fungi growing everywhere, and also got to meet the sweetest young 🐎 ironically named Joey, and he also has the same nickname a friends father calls me as well. I never met a horse so calm to a stranger approaching it in my life, he just wanted attention, and a kiss boop on the shnoot. I have rarely been able to touch a horse but twice before in my life, and it was amazing getting to kiss one on the shnoot making me want one more than ever, it's just too bad I can't have that one cause it was instant love.

Either way, I will get to see Joey again, as I felt comfortable there, they need some help, and I need the mental release of doing the type of fall work that I love doing.

I think this could be the start of an awesome friendship with like minded people, and a great way for me to learn horse language before they help me get my own horse down the road.

Lots of love with this 🐐 goat.

You know, it's such a blessing to be able to sit in quiet with my little darlings enjoying the evening before lockdown after a few days of 🌧️.

I don't know how some people can say 🐐's are a pain to keep, I find them absolutely adorable, and so much fun to have around. Especially these 2 little affectionate little monsters Coco & Shanel.

One grazing pen is complete, and Juliette is super happy about it cause she's got tons to eat, and pick through.

Need a bunch more pallets to finish the other side, and then the 2 center dividers, but only half of this one has growth, so good enough for now.

I wonder if there's somewhere I could volunteer to work around horses that wouldn't be too far away from me. 🐎.

I'm an extremely fast learner, I have skilled hands, and I'm patient around animals of all types.

I would be looking to work off the cost of a young horse once I have enough experience around them.

It doesn't have to be just horses either, I'm extremely comfortable trimming goat hooves, some experience with pigs, as well as all sorts of poultry that I'm accustomed to on my property.

I'm comfortable using tractors, backhoes, and all sorts of machinery. I'm extremely mechanically inclined to be able to fix just about anything as well.

With years of working in construction, landscaping, a block 1 electrician and also a block 1 in Automotive tech with a deep understanding of 12v electronic diagnostics.

If there are any farms between the Amherst, and Moncton areas that could use strong backed capable of doing just about anything to help around the farm in exchange for knowledge first, and eventually a young horse, but can't afford to pay for it in $$, then I'm 100% your guy.

I'm extremely honest, trustworthy, and don't have to be told how to do something twice.

Just give me a task, tell me how you want it done, sit back, and watch me go.

Taking a tour of the homestead after a year of progress.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

I don't understand why horses, and donkeys are so expensive, and why I don't have any yet. 😂

If you're running low on 🐇 fever, or missed out on Spring breeding, no worries, cause fall breeding time is here. 😂

Our last 🐇 from the spring breeding program flew the coop yesterday, so we're all in the clear for a more precise program of actually knowing what I'm doing this round. Will be updating as things progress, but fairly certain this time around the quality is going to be even better than the last with a much better quality buck.

I added a series of pictures highlighting this year's bunnies that have made it into homes as pets.
