Self Sufficiency is Already a Big Concern for Us | Off Grid Living

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.

❤❤
Amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys good work.
Beautiful.
Great video keep it up!
Takes time sis ❤
Nice work on the potato plot Lucy. That compost will surely do wonders for anything that gets a dose of it, especially those tomatoes! Great work on the truck Magnus! I wish i could say my truck fixing adventures went as well on mine as the 4wd is still not working and will most likely have to go to the "stealership" to be fixed but such is life. Glad to see things are moving along well for you all and really enjoy your videos!
good luck 🤞 Magnus had to fix the truck because the only official mechanic here has a 6 month waiting list... I think almost everyone here fixes their cars in their garage 🥴
@@thefarawayhollow Haha yeah I have a large garage/workshop that I do most all of my own maintenance in as well (by choice). It just seems the newer the vehicle the more complicated the problems. 😁
New subscriber, here. We grow micro greens inside all year long and they are very nutricious and tasty. They could be a side bar to your self-sufficient menu. If you could live on beauty alone, your homestead would be completely finished today! All the best
Dehydrating food is great for preservation.
Good luck Lucy. It's sad to see that the dirty work is left to you
I live for the dirty work
У вас хорошо получается и за короткий промежуток времени, будет очень много подписчиков на вашем канале!
I really can’t help but guess where , just knowing that I’m not supposed know makes me want too. My guess is Norfolk Island There really isn’t too many subtropical islands even less that are wet and even less that have tree ferns, and possibly some kind of Araucaria.
I need that growlight for my weak af seedlings 😂
Same 😭
Hi there guys. The homestead is looking good. I was wondering if you ever see my daughter Paula Coelho who moved back to Flores , in Fazenda across the river from your home?. I enjoy watching your videos.
Hi, thank you. Not really but summer is coming and I hope to see her at the forest park often. I need to arrange with her. We seem to always have viruses coming through our household due to the boys being at school, so we're glued to our place a lot.
👍👌
I wondered what made you buy a property on the island, as your interest is gardening and it seems a hard place to do that.
Magnus moved here because his father bought the house in the 1970s, and after moving here he was able to buy the land around the house that enables the house to have road access. The soil is so fertile 🌱 but, it's a little windy at times 🌬️
Your "lines" are not Wonky, they are on Contour ;) See all good
I'm curious, is it an island in Europe?
Looks like Flores -Azores.
omg Dan, 🤫
You can delete my comment to make sure that nobody finds out;)
Is it on the island of Flores - Azores?

Why don't you like it?@@alittleheavenonearth
@@alittleheavenonearth How come you don't like it? Very curious. Thanks!
@@tropicallyfit I rsp to that @danziger.... just 👎
Hey, we're not going to say where we live. Although we love living on this island year round, we don't want to appear to be promoting tourism here. There's also a growing trend of locals not wanting good things for others that live here, so we just prefer to not promote our videos on the island 😊
Have you got a permit for those chickens?
chickens are outlaws
Sweet girl much love.shamim zahuri from bangladesh 💏 🤝 🇧🇩
the pellets are too big fol so small chickens
they definitely aren't too big for our mouse-eating forest dinos
raise ducks for more eggs, rabbit and sheep for meat and milk. if possible cow for milk. placing comment is easy for me. but they are asset
