The best thing I like about being off grid on my 60 acres is that it doesn’t matter if it takes me 3 days or 3 weeks to do something as there is no time restraints and as a retired service technician that is truly a blessing to work at your own pace. Good luck to you all!

I have not missed a single part of your journey. It's so close to the way we started. Keep at it, after a while you will be doing jobs you WANT to do not jobs you HAVE to do. That makes all the difference in the world. I realize the budget is tight and currency is an issue but with Christmas being right around the corner maybe you can sweet talk Santa (or Father Christmas if you prefer) into bringing you a sturdy garden cart. One where the sides are removable Moving your IBC's would have been a breeze once they were balanced on it. You will find it more useful than the wheelbarrow over time. If he won't spring for that, you still need a decent garden rake especially if you plan on planting some crops of your own. It never hurts to ask! Recap videos are hard. A lot of editing and a great deal of time is required. You did a GREAT job with this one!! Keep smiling, keep working and keep making the videos we like to see!

If I can help you with one tip get approximately 12 foot length of rope or cloth and tie it together to make a loop now put it through the pallet on one side of the ibc then use the rope cloth to carry the ibc by putting the rope over your shoulders you’ll find it a lot easier to carry big things as your using your body to do the work not your arms and back. Keep up the good work and get yourselves sorted to temporary sleep in the barn at least you can have a wood fire to warm over the winter months. Waiting for next episode. Xx

Beautiful film. It's not only the Portuguese who shared their farmhouses with animals. The Welsh Longhouse was designed to do exactly that, with the thought that the heat given off by the beasts in one half would help to keep the family warm in the other (that's the theory, I've never actually tested it). Recycling pallets is a great idea, the cost of new wood at builders' merchants is astronomical. You could build yourself a large flat trolley (like a kid's go-cart) to transport heavy things from the road to your homestead. It's amazing how manageable heavy things become once you get some wheels underneath them. I would level the track with a pick, using earth and stones from the high spots to fill in the ruts. The Sprinter will roll it down. Onwards and upwards!

Growing up we recycled everything that neighbors would scrap. Our family home became 80% neighbor scrap lol. They actually would come over and just ask us first if we wanted their scrap before tossing it into the transfer station. We lived off the land farming, hunting, fishing, shrimping, crabbing, going into the jungle and scavenging for wild yam, and other bounties it would provide. Time moved by at a snail's pace and the only stress we had was that from each other's personalities lol. It would all change when we discovered Netflix, cable tv, "convenience". It's been 12 years since moving from the island to the States for work and living the corporate slave life. I have discovered there can be more stupidly stressful things and this video has reminded me of my roots and the important things in life. I simply want to say thank you and it may be time for me to return home and become the ultimate hunter gatherer once again.

Very Cool! The Wife and I are looking at land right now. Of course we wont be exactly homesteading considering were both in our mid 50's. And living in America in our case Texas we want a bit more land,we need forty acres for hunting purposes and just shooting as a hobby. We plan on having a Barndominium built which if you dont know what that is it's one large building with your living area and the shop under one roof. Looking to go mainly solar and possibly wind power. Still want to be hooked up to the grid for those just in case moments that can pop up. And of course we'll have a garden and raise chickens and possibly some goats and a milk cow. Well lease a small section to a rancher for grazing purposes which will give us an ag exemption on our taxes.

A brave decision to take on a property like that and I thnk you have made the right decision on not trying to restore too much land, and if needs be you can always purchase some more. Having a well-organised tool shed is a big help. The old barn is similar to the house of my Polish wife's grandparents and how they used to live. What I like about this project in particular is your use of recycled materials.

Great effort guys! Unfortunately the tarp doesn’t last two minutes in the hot sun and starts to shred. You need a pond liner heavy duty. You learn these things over time. There is such a tool as a pallet breaker don’t know how it works but it might be useful to you. Always cover your water to stop evaporation in that heat you won’t have much left. Best of luck both. Water is like liquid gold in those conditions.
