I have 120 acres. I have to walk 1.5 miles to get from one end of my land to the other. I recommend people stay with 5 acres or less as its far easier to manage.

I have a hard time visualizing distance and measurements in my head, so this helps a lot!!

Youre such a wholesome soul! Glad people like you still exist in this mad world.

That is a lot bigger than I thought. I had always wondered what a acre was in size I love your channel I am so envious of the life you have and I know it's not all roses but your living how you want well done to you

This is great! Our new homestead is just 2.5 acres, but I'm amazed at how much space we have, and how much we'll be able to fit on it.

I’m new to Texas (via NYC) and was touring the country in my RV but fell in love with Texas. This is my dream and I thought an acre would not be enough but this is perfect. Thanks so much for the video / education. Much appreciated!

Thank you Beck. The piece i have been looking at is 2 acres. I could not for the life of me vision how big it is. You cute little video was exactly what I was needing. Liked and Subscribed

Also check live stock ordinance. A lot of states require a minimum of 5 acres for large animals, like cows and horses.

One of the most important things to buying any piece of land is what germs or such live in the soil. I knew someone that bought land and later found that all their animals would get sick from something in the soil.

I have 600 acres with about 2 very large buffalo herds on it. One herd is always active and running around while the other herd continuously sleeps. I suggest people stay with 120 acres, waaaay less stress.

I LOVE you!!! You are so real, so much fun to watch and such an inspiration. Even my 3 year old daughters love you! 🤗👍🐔💟

Hey Becky just wanted to let you know I love your videos! My family owns 25 acres, but most of it is woods and the rest is wide open fields. The fields are on a hill so we can’t really use it and instead just let a farmer rent it to grow food for his livestock.

Thank you, this is a very helpful video.

[bunkydom]

I can not get your link to work. your guide to buying land.

[norcalpinoy]

I have almost an acre of land (0.97 acre). I just bought it a week ago. It's in an agricultural rural area. What should I do next? I just wanna grow crops like vegetables and fruit trees but it's in a desert area in imperial county, California. Can I just grow crops and how I get the water there's an irrigation canal nearby.

Thank you Becky, you're awesome and I enjoy your videos. I checked with the county I live in and I can have a garden (Not to sell) for personal use and some animals but they where not sure as to what ones. I can't wait to get started on excavation on the property, thank you for your inspiration.
