Welcome to Guildbrook Farm

Guildbrook Farm is a modern homestead in the foothills of Appalachia. We take our audience along on a journey to become more self-reliant by growing our own organic produce, raising animals for dairy and eggs, preparing food for long-term storage, and building off the grid renewable energy systems. In 2017, we moved to raw land where we are building a debt-free energy efficient and disaster resistant ICF mountain home. Join us as we learn to live a simple, sustainable lifestyle.

Making Rustic Wood Fence From Black Locust

Making Rustic Wood Fence From Black Locust

With a couple of nice days last week on the homestead, we needed to repair our entrance gate and replace some fencing. In this video we build a new section of rustic wood split rail fence using black locust posts and rails from our property. It's sustainable, self-reliant and best of all, didn't cost any money.
