Episode Details

I'm not the fastest milker in the world. The cow really is the central part for my homestead anyway, because she does so many things.

我不是世界上挤奶最快的人。不管怎么说，奶牛确实是我家的重心，因为她能做很多事情。

She provides the milk. She gives me one calf a year that will go in the freezer.

她能产奶，她每年给我生一头小牛，可以度过冬天。

This isn't for everybody, even people who want a homestead. You know, milking, not everything is for everybody. You need to love it and I do.

这并非适合所有人，哪怕是那些想要宅地的人。挤奶这活儿不是人人都适合干的，你得真心喜欢才行，而我就是这样。

I'm Pa Mac. I live in Caddo Gap, Arkansas. My wife and daughters and I live on a 52-acre homestead that were pretty much developing.

我是帕·麦，住在阿肯色州的卡多加普。我和妻女们住在一块52英亩的宅地上，这块地当时正处于开发阶段。

I have developed from scratch, and what we try to do is grow a lot of our own food.

我是白手起家，我们试着自己种植大量的食物。

Of course, being self-sufficient is kind of an ideal that may not really be fully attainable, but it's the goal.

当然，自给自足有点像一个可能无法真正完全实现的理想，但这就是目标。

I've always been really proud of my dad in his show, because he enjoys what he's doing.

我一直为爸爸的节目感到非常骄傲，因为他乐在其中。

And it's fun to watch him enjoy it and teach other people about it because he likes it and wants to keep the old way alive.

看他乐在其中并向他人传授这些技艺
