Building a Road with a Truck and our Hands | OFF GRID HOMESTEAD
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лют 2023
- On a remote subtropical island, somewhere on earth, you'll find our off grid homestead. We live in an old stone house, with three children, and produce our own electricity, water, and vegetables. With Shetland Geese, Chickens, Guinea Fowl, and two cats to care for, we're slowly transforming 5 acres of wild land into edible gardens. We have 15+ years of experience living this way, so we know a thing or two about how to make off grid living work through our own failures.
We would be really grateful for any support through our Ko-Fi page, or subscribe to our Patreon, so that we can save money for future projects.

Thank you for sharing. Last year we purchased a home in Lajes, Flores. We are experiencing the slow process in getting our roof fixed.... We unfortunately are unable to live there full time due to family needs in the US. But we will be back in July possibly May as well to deal with fixing things at our home.
Yeah, it didn’t help that one of the guys who does that work has hurt himself and is still recovering. Hope he gets better for his own sake
Hey, oh we feel this. Getting anything done on Flores island is such a slow and painful process. There is pros and cons on relying on ourselves to fix everything: on the one hand, Magnus eventually figures out how to fix things and make the home work, but on the other hand we have an ever growing long list of things that need fixing and can never seem to get on top of things.
Yeah took almost a year for the storm door to get ordered, less serious than the guy hurting himself, but man it took a while for the measurements to be done
Hi guys. Enjoy watching. I believe you know my daughter Paula . She moved back to Flores from California to Fazenda to start her life with Miguel. We will be there this summer to meet our grandson in person for the first time. Take care stay well.
Hi, yes we do. Hopefully see you this summer 😄 we will take our boy to the forest park a lot when it opens up again.
Beautiful images from a beautiful island. How are you finding the weather in winter, is it very cold?
Really mild winter this year, but it has been cold enough for my blueberries to have lots of flowers 🫐
Thank you for sharing! If you have the spare time from all you have to do, I would love to hear why you chose Flores over the other Azores islands?
Hey 👋 we will actually be on a program called 'New Lives in the Wild in a week's time. I'll link you to it, it will make everything more clear as to why we live on Flores.
Great video and channel! I'm a new subscriber!
BTW I also have a small gardening channel 🌽🍅🍆🥒🌶
