    So glad I stumbled upon your video! I love Midcoast! We stay in Boothbay Harbor every September for two weeks. My husband's mom is from BBH. My family is from Bar Harbor region. We also homeschool and homestead. We're in Southeastern CT. 😊

    I'm so thankful that I found you!! We just moved to northern Maine on an already established homestead, and I'm just learning all about all of this, but I am a huge fan of child led learning, and the whole town is homeschool farmers and homesteads!

    Love how Maine is so welcoming to off grid lifestyle... Beautiful property.. Does the solar provide enough electricity to meet your needs? Particularly in the winter? Thanks for sharing... Those kids are lucky to have you as a mom..

    If you get a flock of free-ranging guinea hens they will absolutely decimate the tick population in your area. When I got my property I couldn't walk 5ft into the woods and straight back out without at least 4 ticks on me, now I can spend all day in the woods without any.

    Wow.... I had to take a double take of your video thumbnail as you look so much like my UA-cam friend Sylvie (DoeRaeMe) who has moved back into her childhood home in MAINE as well!! She moved with her husband and 3 kids under 6 from Canada and back to her childhood home which was off grid back when she was a kid growing up and now also living off grid again! She also home schools her kids (she was home schooled growing up). She heads into town to upload her videos. I bet you've probably seen her around town! I'm totally spinning out right now how similar the 2 of you actually are!!! Like... WOW!!! You 2 should DEFINITELY meet!!!

    Be happy you live off grid. The police cannot broadcast in protection rackets via voice over power line communications via the smart meter or directional speakers threatening your family and demanding your wealth or attack you and your children with microwave weapons. The worst thing I did was move to Maine in 10/2022. The broadcast in protection rackets and microwave weapon attacks make my house nearly uninhabitable.
