- Many people have a dream to go off grid, but where do you start?
It starts with a plan and vision of what you want. In this video we will go over a few actionable steps for you to take to really begin to envision what you want from starting an off grid homestead.
Once you have the vision, we can figure out How to make it happen, which is what we will cover in our next video.
Love your story.
Im coming.
Save me a spot.😁🤭
E Komo mai
Thank you for the motivation! 💪👊
Glad it was helpful
Thank you so much for your videos. Your videos have been very helpful to me being mentally prepared concerning the land of Hawaii has been stolen from the indigenous people.
It is an issue to be aware of. But remember, just live your life with aloha and you will always be doing what is right.
You nailed it with the why...
Thanks
I like your channel man! I've been planning my move to there since 2018, and am ready to move as soon as this crisis dies down. My biggest problem is finding a place low enough in elevation that will allow me to use a shipping container. All the places that are .28 acres and smaller have CCWs and will not allow this, and I have to move somewhere higher in elevation where you can not grow certain things, and have to get at least an acre.
Mahalo. Keep researching and see my other comments. You'll find that perfect spot.
@@HomesteadinHawaii Right on, thanks man! I'm almost done with all of your videos now.
@@3000gtwelder HA!! Thanks for watching.
Aloha
I really been enjoying the channel and appreciate you sharing all your experiences! This type of knowledge is priceless and I plan to put it to good use in the next year!
In 2014 I purchased a spaghetti lot at the top of Orchidland that got a cabin in busted up condition(but the walls still standing hah!) and a few fruit trees that was already there and a few more that ive planted every time i go back.
Like you, im from California. All i want to do is spearfish, hunt and live offgrid on a homestead getting back to my roots, be debt free and live simple and off the aina.
Im very inspired with what you've achieved and look forward to more of your videos!

Thanks for watching. I have a few friends in orchidland. It's a pretty cool spot where you have room to grow, but still close to things. Let me know if you need any tips when you get rolling!
Solar the cost is around 12,000.00 but that also includes ac. The ac can run directly off the panels.
My solar system cost about the same, if I was going to tie into the grid It would've cost me half that, but I like not having monthly bills
I got it down to mountain view, fern forest or black sand beach.
I'd stay out of Black Sand Beach, it's not even by the beach
Great vid!

Maybe a list of must haves? Type of dwelling, septic?
Thanks for the idea!
LFG!!!
Perhaps a hardware and goods store available selection
Off the grid 22 years in Black Sands.
You have me beat by one.
Thanks for these videos! would you be interested in doing consultations or tours if we came over? Currently live in Oahu and want to move to Big Island- I personally have not been but my partner has we are looking to live off grid around Pahoa, your videos are super inspiring we are looking to buying some land and building within the next year or two.
Mahalo for watching. I was planning on rebooting consultation services in the near future. I used to be a landscape contractor and Permaculture Educator but took a little break, but I feel like I might be ready to get back into that. Let me know when you are planning to be on island and maybe we can arrange something together. My email is homesteadinhawaii@gmail.com
@@HomesteadinHawaii I'm similarly interested in consulting you and maybe tour some neighborhoods. I would like to find a little piece of land at the end of this corona situation, whenever that is. I don't have any contacts on the big island though. Been really appreciating your videos while I dream....
Aloha Jessica. If you want to cruise around checking out different places when you get on island just let me know. I'd be happy to help.
@@HomesteadinHawaii Right on! Thanks so much! :)
How much would you charge to check out land for me .
I do consults for $275, which you can find more info about on my website,
www.homesteadinhawaii.com/services-products/
I'm planning on buying land on the big island and I have visited last year. My issue is figuring out which area is best. I would like at least an acre. For Homestead and preferably with decent roads
Whats your budget
@@HomesteadinHawaii most listing look to be cash only so 35-50k
@@WeThePeople001 HPP or orchidland would be best id say
I know how to go off grid, i just gotta get on island hahahah
Yeah. That part's a little tricky
You bought a 1/4 acre lot for $3000.
How much would your same property cost in 2023?
Crazy! $30k these days.
Good talk....Thanks...here in Calif farmers are being run off their property by the Governor and his dumb crew and they are not coming back ..taking their water making regs to grow cost way to much.....food will soon be way way high ...20 buck a dozen eggs...no almonds...no grapes..no chicken or 30 bucks a chicken....avocados 5 bucks each.. it's coming real soon and it's going to be crazy..
I worry about the future but prepare everyday. That’s all you can do I think
