Starting a Homestead in the Mountains of E KY - No Chipper, No Problem Plenty Of Other Things To Do

Starting a Homestead in the Mountains | Our Struggle with Equipment Failures - Part 2

Join us as we share our journey of moving from Cincinnati to the beautiful mountains of Eastern Kentucky to start a homestead. In this video, we dive into the challenges we’ve faced while trying to clear a five-acre area on our property. One of the biggest setbacks has been dealing with a problematic wood chipper we purchased in the fall of 2022. After numerous trips to the shop to fix carburetor issues and even an engine fire that melted the belts, we're left wondering: Will Rural King take back this chipper after almost two years of ownership? Tune in to hear our story and get updates on our homestead progress, including whether or not we get a refund for this troublesome equipment!
