welcome!

Thanks for checking out my website, I’m Dave (AKA Big Dave). Welcome to my "35-Acre Challenge," an exciting adventure I started on a few years ago. I’ve enjoyed many roles in my life but now was the time to buy some country land that I could make my own.  I am embarking on a journey to transform a sprawling piece of 35-acre land into a thriving homestead.

On my YouTube channel I document every step of my journey — from tearing down a time-worn house to erecting a brand-new barn, excavating aged woods for a future woodshed, and cultivating a lush garden. This isn't just soil and sweat; it's a story of dreams sprouting in real-time.

Through this website, you’ll witness my successes, frustrations, failures and learnings. Peek into my world, watch as the land evolves, and join a community cheering for every tree planted and every nail hammered.

Stay tuned, stay inspired, and witness transformation, where it's never too late to plant the seeds of a new beginning!
