  • SO MANY OFF GRID JOBS after a month off from our HOMESTEAD in central Portugal, can we make our OFF GRID CABIN waterproof before the storms hit??? Will we get all these jobs completed in time? PLUS we get DIGGER DAVE back in to start our new MARKET GARDEN...
    AND where have we been for the past month?
    A self build cabin in the woods can be so romantic AND NOW we're building our own tiny house in our own woodland. Inspired by so many cabins it's time to get chopping wood, digging holes and getting this wooden cabin build off the ground!
    We have a vision for a 2 story cabin with a high A frame style roof and a medieval inspired veranda and balcony. Follow along each week and watch us without any previous building skills we show you anyone can do it!
    Join us OFF GRID in Portugal where we are growing a FOOD FOREST and embarking on our journey to be self sufficient and beat the cost of living crisis.

    If you have a large amount of bamboo, you could make a roof out of that for nothing but labor and time. If you split the bamboo and put the first layer of the u shape halves up next to each other , and fasten that to the lentals. Next you take and put the u shape down this time and fasten those, you end up with a rain proof roof with the first layer taking the water away from being able to have a leak in the roof. It is very simple and works wonderful.

    • @TheWildlandersOffGrid
      @TheWildlandersOffGrid  8 місяців тому +1

      Sounds great and definitely will use bamboo in the future when it's more established. This year we're only just starting to get proper canes.... I think in another year maybe 2, we can harvest some, definitely a great roofing material especially for that tropical jungly look which I do love 👌❤️

    If you are afraid the frost will get your peas eat the pods before the peas form inside, you can eat them stir fried or raw, and you can also eat the leaves In a salad,.we do both in Canada.

    So happy you got to see family. You were missed. You can tell this cabin is solid, not shoddy.👏👏👏 Yesterday here in Texas we had low 43. Now it’s 85🤣. Potatoes need a deep dig to get volume. It’s not a sin to dig🥰. Have you had any bananas to eat? Blessings to all❤🥰

      Should get banana to eat next summer as they take around 15months to fruit, so just have to keep them alive/protected through winter ❄️🍌🍌

Glad you've been able to get back to the UK, help remind you how much you prefer living in Portugal 😂😂 but it must've been nice to see your families again. We have just had Storm Babet and our poor garden took a battering, wasn't very nice at all. Hopefully it will all cool down for you soon and you can get in with finishing that cabin. Get your wellies at the ready lol. Love your hair that colour Missy xxxx

    looks amazing with the cabin, but wouldn't it have been easier to restore the windows before fitting them? love the door :D Has your lovely daughter thought of some amazing colors for it? it just screams for some bright colors :D hope you get safely through the storns, the chickpeas love it scorching hot, so planting them in the spring would make more sense I guess? so they really can get toasted during the summer?
    The nanas looks lovely :D hope you can eventually produce some fruit om them, but the plants alone looks amazing :D love em
