A Day In My OFF GRID LIFE | Yurt Build & Boat Life | Garden Tour & Swimming With Orcas - Day 6

A Day In My OFF GRID LIFE | Yurt Build & Boat Life | Our Garden & Swimming With Orcas - Day 6 • A Day In My OFF GRID L... Today was an amazing day in our Off Grid life. We gather supplies in town, meet and get help by our amazing neighbors, plant seeds in our vegetable and herb garden, build our garden soil with seaweed, continue to build the platform for our amazing Yurt, and top it all of with admiring amazing Orca "Killer Whales" at sunset. The experience with the Orcas (Killer Whales) was incredible for us. I edited the audio on my external microphone higher and sharper so you can hear the Orca sounds (breathing) and used the zoom lens I have for my Canon 80D to try and video some incredible sights of these amazing ocean mammals! We were easily over 400-1000 meters away from the Killer Whales and only boated off to the side of their pod (never boating into them nor cutting them off). Then, turned the engine off for about 20-30 min to hear them and not interfere with their communication under the water. Then, without warning the big male (big daddy) emerged to check us out! Truly majestic experience!
This Yurt build and Yurt life will be a journey, we hope you SUBSCRIBE and come with us! Enjoy #yurt #offgrid #tinyhouse #jakemace #livingoffgrid #garden #veganathlete #orca #killerwhale #whale #whalewatching
Nicole and I are attempting to live off the grid in British Columbia, Canada. We have 8 acres of forest property sandwiched in between the Pacific Ocean, a fresh water lake, and a stream which flows year round from the lake into the ocean. For over nearly 10 years I grew a fruit tree, permaculture, garden, and native edible plant, herb, and raised bed garden food forest. You can still watch all the garden videos of my old desert garden in Arizona. I was born in British Columbia and I have returned to the Rain Forests of British Columbia to a "Raw Land" property to grow my 1st FULL EDIBLE FOOD FOREST Off Grid on a wilderness property. This climate is temperate and coastal, rarely seeing snow in the winter and highs in the 80's (30 Celsius) in the summer. It is a rare microclimate that spans from gardening zone 7-9. The property is 8 acres and completely overgrown, mostly with conifer trees. This area is a verifiable rain forest and situated in the Southwestern-most tip of the Canadian "Great Bear Rain Forest". NicHolistic ( / holisticnicole ) and I will be learning about edible seaweeds, edible native plants, edible mushrooms, and many other edible native trees/plants as we attempt to Build a Yurt, Draw Our Energy Clean, Live Off the Grid, and Grow an Epic Superfoods Garden and Fruit Tree Orchard. We will also have a lot of changes coming so get ready. More videos and BTS Clips at my VLOG channel / adventureswjakenicole

[@VeganAthlete]

Who is getting inspired to GO OFF GRID themselves???

[@DougTozier]

I would love to- so inspired by what you guys are doing. Probably too late for my wife and I and kids... Living vicariously through you youngins...LOL.

[@lancemcnichol2354]

Living on a sailboat we are most of the way there already; just need solar panels to truly unplug. Unfortunately this is not Arizona and there is not enough sunlight in the winter on Vancouver Island to generate power. Very curious to see how you are able to stay "off grid" and address the electricity issue without using solar. Lance & Carol - Victoria

[@Jar0fMay0]

Nah, I like modern living lol. And there's no way my wife would give that up.

[@WackoMac]

Im am but im worried i would start comparing fish to potatoes.

[@sabchatelain5249]

Me!!!

[@tarapaul8212]

You are developing friendships already. It’s going to be a great community

[@MYPERMACULTUREGARDEN]

WoW !!! Awesome ending guys !!!!!! Beautiful Orkas !!!!!! Killer Whales !!!

[@starlitekaraoke113]

I been watching your content all morning and I’m hooked. Living in NYC for 54 years and I’m done with the hustle and bustle. I was watching ‘My Little Homestead’ here on KZbin after seeing Bill and Paula Lishman’s intergraded home in Canada...I love this community of ppl. Everyone is so courteous and cordial. It’s definitely a better way of life! Not to mention being aware of nature and wanting to preserve it. Great work and I look forward to seeing more. Thank you.

[@SweetSoundProduction]

The Orcas are so majestic in peaceful waters.

[@goddardbenjamin]

The Orcas are amazing!

[@athollmcnicoll256]

Lovely to see wild natural Orca's swimming so close to humanity - thanks for sharing.

[@mayasilliman1465]

I am so glad you have a few neighbors. Solitude is great but sometimes a nice friend for a cup of tea is good. Also barter system works good.

[@Eric-gi9kg]

They (orcas) are as majestic and beautiful as their land counterparts ...the wolf.

[@jad1714]

Seriously you guys deserve a award for your videography

[@VeganAthlete]

Thank you Jad!!!

[@JohnMason-Hill]

Your “B-roll” game is on!!!!!!

[@tiagogomes75]

Omg, amazing. Can't express how beautiful nature is

[@777cygnus]

4x4. X 8 ft. Make Posts 2 ft . no waste 3 ft awfully high ? Cut wood from end of horse not middle. Awesome. Love those. Orcas. WOW 😎👍

[@kkohl9746]

Джейк, у тебя руки растут из правильного места!Мужик сказал- мужик сделал!

[@laurarose5782]

These vids are mind blowing. Most people would have a team just to record, but you guys are doing it all. This is documentary quality and style. You'll deserve an award at some point.

[@VeganAthlete]

Thank you Laura!!! Just Nicole and I. We both gather the footage, she edits the Living Off Grid with Jake and Nicole channel, and I edit Vegan Athlete videos. We really appreciate it!

[@laurarose5782]

VeganAthlete Jake you are incredibly talented. I always enjoyed your gardening vids, but you’ve outdone yourself here. The way you capture nature and set it to music is very moving. You’re a builder, athlete, gardener, editor, documentary maker and more. These vids are a joy to watch.

[@OffGridLife]

Great video babe!!

[@VeganAthlete]

Love you!

[@rowenadinsmore1]

Rah rah for Team Nicole!!!

[@jksatte]

Oh wow, that was sooo cool. I can't imagine a place where I can see orca's with a short boat ride. That is so amazing. Thanks for sharing. Janice

[@skylarcasey2418]

i jumped when the big papa orca showed up so close!

[@VitorMadeira]

That part with the Orcas was just... Breathtaking! I loved it!

[@indigowarrior8]

I kept taking deep breaths as I imagined how lovely and fresh the air would be there. I'm in London UK.

[@BrennenWatts]

Just wow

[@Marli2023]

You are both winners.

[@wilmahopper6400]

I love what both of you are doing .I think Jake will win.

[@pamelao9803]

OMG -. Loved watching the whales!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing!!!!

[@LuyomiSouza]

These veggies look delicious 😋

[@BrightStar81247]

Amazing lifestyle. Food looks good!

[@barbrasgarden5090]

Team Jake from Arizona!!! I love you too Nicole!!

[@aaronharr6553]

Now that was awesome right next to the boat what a beautiful site to behold.

[@aumpo913]

Getting excited for you guys 😊

[@aberuth16]

You guys are the best! #teamNicole

[@laurabowmanchannel]

seeing the orcas was so emotional for me. i'm still crying. wow. such beauty, unharmed, beautiful fins.

[@pamelao9803]

I have been watching you guys on the jake and Nicole channel for a few months and have watched all of your together videos so now I am watching yours and Nicole’s solo channels. So glad I am doing that as now I see more info! Thanks for sharing! Love the info about your neighbors. I have always been lucky with finding good neighbors - we always helped each other.

[@lancemcnichol2354]

So much fun doing this live youtube premiere thing, our first time ever! Great content this time Jake. Don't worry about the video quality too much as the content is amazing and that's why we are watching. Nice to see a bit of everything - some construction, a bit of gardening, and more scenery from "up island". The whale show is a wonderful bonus with awesome footage. As always, looking forward to seeing the next one. GO TEAM JAKE! Lance & Carol - Victoria

[@garrycole9187]

What an experience it is to be able to see them in their natural habitat and not some pool. I am so glad that Seaworld was forced to removed them from the pools.

[@StrykerInflatableBoats]

So you found us, you're doing bucket list stuff, man!

[@VeganAthlete]

Stryker Boats 🚣‍♀️ Best Boat Ever!!! Thank you 🙏🏼

[@jeanpitt7401]

Your boat ride to town on a nice da day is so beautiful.

[@ManningInterpreter]

I am so jealous! Orca are my favorite animals!It is so cool that you are in an area that you can take your boat out and see them! Especially with your close the orca came to you. I can’t believe I am just finding your channel. You and your partner seem like such genuine good people!!😊

[@lunarsapphire7057]

Seems you guys have a little slice of heaven!

[@elenitamadelo8088]

Your great and your wife GOD bless ✌

[@chantayafitzhenry6590]

This makes my heart happy. So much good progress in the garden plots and in the foundation for the yurts. And top it off with a beautiful gift from nature with a visit from some black fish 🤩😍

[@truthseeker3907]

Thumbs up Indiana USA.

[@redrickgrass]

I love the above drone shots, reminded me of a Labyrinth design. Great video folks! go team Jake!! The Orcas are magnificent, thank you for sharing!!

[@whitneylee33]

Ive never seen whales so close before or not in the ocean. That must have been amazing. Thanks for recording it! x

[@adr4215]

orcas are friends, blessings always

[@RoseRose-yo4qs]

Omgosh you guys, how magical was that to be there that close to the whales!!! A new adventure every day. Thanks so much for sharing. So much progress already 👍👍

[@paulaarthur57]

What a beautiful experience with the orcas. Good luck with your gardens. Thank you for the lovely videos.

[@billdemelo3011]

Sounds like Jake knows his seeds, I'm going with Jake to have a better garden. You two are like the new version of the 21th century hippies. You guys Rock, can't wait to see the Yurt going up.

[@peterschubert2270]

Nice one and good luck team Jake.

[@northernlight13]

Nature is amazing. Thank you for sharing.

[@BrynnCarrollARTIST]

Orcas are stunning! I used to do this with family. We would take a boat out, turn off the engine and drift and they would come right up to the boat. Fantastic capture! Another beautiful video! You make me miss this area so much! I wish I could do the same. As a Botanical Artist, the PNW is amazing inspiration! Spent many years at the Butchart Gardens! Well done! Would be fun to build a tree house!

[@ingridinaz]

Wow the amazing adventures you will have over the years.

[@lindarice3445]

This was a great video, as for who is going to grow the best garden I have seen your garden, Jake, in the dry desert which was pretty impressive. As Nicole said regardless you will have fresh veggies, there aren’t any losers here, you both are such hard workers. Keep it up you will succeed.

[@ceevee5640]

Beautiful orcas, thanks for sharing!!

[@daniellopez2615]

What a Blessing! You guys are awesome, thx!...Great idea with the volunteers/ helping hands.

[@hildaabete9464]

Good luck on your garden competition. Your are the Winners!

[@LuyomiSouza]

#teamjake for the garden 🌱

[@bigzann1]

The scenery is absolutely breathtaking! The footage of the Orcas was wonderful. Best of luck to you guys getting your home built, along with your gardens! ❤️ At about 19:46 there’s a black shadow blob that moves to the right, then left to where Jake is. I’m not sure what that was but it was interesting for sure.

[@VeganAthlete]

[@lightneasy1]

Great shots again Jake and Nicole

[@Crina-LudmilaCristeaAuthor]

So cute! The whales look magnificent. Can't wait to see how the garden(s) will turn out.

[@lorrilaque7311]

I just loved it. Thank you for sharing. I am concerned for our orca population and I hope they have the volume of food source that they need to sustain a healthy life.

[@pennytrowsdale253]

YOU ARE SO BRAVE IN THAT BOAT THOSE WHALES ARE HUGE AND MAKE QUITE A NOISE WHEN THEY COME UP TO THE SUFACE NICE PHOTOS OF THEM

[@jacobstancliff5932]

Team Jake my guy. 2 reasons. 1.) We share a name 2.) You legitimately have given me the spark that I needed to create my own garden and plant new and wonderful plants that I didnt know existed. When I get more money I plan on becoming one of your patrons on patreon. Grow on man and live your life to it's fullest.

[@VeganAthlete]

Thank you Jacob! Great name! ;)

[@Penelope.Banana]

When you get a chance, take your boat to the waters between Quadra and Cortez. You will see Humpbacks. I see them every time I go that way.

[@stevecarlisle3323]

Humpbacks also go right past Jake and Nicole

[@starlitekaraoke113]

Ps. You need to put a ring on Nicole’s finger. You two were made for each other. I’ll be celebrating 28 years of marriage this November and I can see the love you two have, it’s very special. Also yes to your other question about wives/gf’s and food. My wife will say she isn’t hungry till I sit down and she then decides she can pick...lol.

[@tinadowden6866]

Jake I know you can grow in the desert, I don't have a clue what kind of Gardener Nichol is. It's going to be fun to see the progress. I am temporarily in an apartment and only grow in pot. Grow much and prosper Jake and Nichole.

[@goddardbenjamin]

Team Jake all the way!

[@janicecmelo-gibson6592]

Love following you two
