Jana Duggar is loving life on the farm.

On Sunday, June 30, the former Counting On star shared her first YouTube video in over three years, as she returned to the platform to give fans an update on the Arkansas property.

In the video titled "Life Update + Projects I’ve Been Working On," Jana, 34, began, "It’s been a little while since I’ve shared an update. So I wanted to show you all what we've been up to the past few months on the farm and some fun projects that we’ve been working on."

The reality star explained how she'd been getting a helping hand from her sisters Johannah, 18, and Josie, 14, revealing they'd bought a "whole truckload" of sheep and goats, as well as cleaning up the old farm shed, among other tasks.

"So many new kids were born this spring!" Jana wrote on the clip, showing fans an adorable baby goat, as well as chicks, one of their ducks and a snake she had pinned down in the garden.

She revealed they'd built a new fence to keep the sheep and goats from eating the garden plants, sharing that they'd come up with a plan before heading to the store to "buy all of the materials."

"This is how it's done these days," Jana said behind the camera while showing the materials being loaded onto a truck, jokingly adding, "I'm retiring now, y'all have got it!"

Jana also explained how the family had made special memories putting the finishing touches on the fence late at night. "I am so pleased with how it all came together," she said in the video.

"It's not only doing the job of keeping the animals out, but it also just creates this beautiful backdrop to the garden, and just I think completes that whole area," Jana went on. "We decided to put an awning off the side of the shed just to give a little bit more shade for the animals. I absolutely love this time of year."

"You can see the flowers growing, the vegetables are starting to grow, and it's just new life that is blossoming everywhere. It is so beautiful out here," she concluded.

Jana's post came after she returned to social media in May following a two-year hiatus, sharing a clip of some purple flowers, followed by a Mother's Day post for her mom, Michelle Duggar, on Instagram.

Jana's social-media break came not long after she reached a settlement outside of court in January 2022 regarding the child-endangerment citation she received in late 2021, PEOPLE previously reported.

In December 2021, Jana broke her silence on her Instagram Stories after receiving the written citation, insisting "it was an accident and the child was unharmed" after one of the kids she'd been babysitting "wandered outside alone."

"I was certainly never arrested like some may have implied," she said at the time, insisting she was "upset" with herself "that it had happened at all."

News of Jana's charge surfaced just one day after her brother Josh Duggar was convicted of receiving and possessing child sexual abuse material. He was sentenced to more than 12 years in federal prison on child-pornography charges in May 2022.
