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.

Playing With a Mini Excavator

It's been a while but we're still here! Today we are learning how to operate a mini excavator for the first time and having fun playing around in the dirt, prepping a food plot for deer season, digging up stumps and hopefully getting this porch project started.
