We can all help Luke and Sarah by letting the adverts roll.

For some reason, the comments box wouldn’t come up, so I’m commenting here. I loved this video. Secret garden is lovely. I think there will be several foods you could grow there; fiddleheads, nettles. I made awesome nettles and eggs this morning; lots of seeds on them at the moment. Thanks to your patrians for helping to support the channel.

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Thanks so much for your lovely message x x , nettles and eggs sounds great

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Thanks so much Jane ♥️♥️♥️

Hi Luke and Sarah, I still don't understand how you don't have a million subscribers... you are both amazing! You are so creative! I really enjoyed the man's voice asking the questions. It was quite funny. 😃

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

🤣🤣 thanks Francesca x x youtube is a funny place

[@nicolalunnon5385]

This video was a real insight into your life off grid , thank you for taking the time in your busy Life.. you seem so happy and contented. Wishing you all the best for many more happy, busy years 😂

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Thank you so much Nicola x

[@meglange3595]

The dude asking the questions is super cool 🤣👍. Well done guys. You've got this, and you "will" achieve your dreams thru steady and patient progress. Take care. 🥰🌿♥️🌿🤗

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

🤣thanks Meg I thought so too ...super cool 😀

[@Neilhuny]

Great questions that we all are thinking, or wish we had thought of. Even better answers! You two seem so content with your lives - sure, it would be nice to have more money, or a roof on the whole of the "ruin", more tools to make life easier etc, but you are doing a great job and living a life that is right! The Voice-From-The-Heavens was very impressive! I thought I would be able to recognise him from another KZbin channel, but failed. Congratulations to a) him for his acting ability, and b) (probably) Sarah for her sound manipulation, adding the echo etc. Very well done, all. Storing heat in Portugal has set me thinking - there are many possibilities to do so, or for it's use ...

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

❤️❤️so true Neil ,money makes life easier but not necessarily happier. You made me smile with your sweet message so thank you x x

[@louiseupton1501]

Thank you for an awesome video Luke and Sarah. Still sending loads of loving healing energy to surround your beautiful ❤MAGGIE❤ for a complete recovery 🤗

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Thanks so very much Louise x x

[@amcab1625]

Thank you for sharing.❤

[@ruthohare9840]

A lot of things there that I identify with. We only have 7 acres but the projects are still endless! 😁

[@mikecorcoran6834]

For your secret garden you might want to look at bamboo as well as Moringa. Moringa for feed for your animals that will keep them healthier than any feed, bamboo for food as well as a money maker. Mushrooms would fit in nicely with Moringa and clumping bamboo. Just a suggestion for your consideration. ❤

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Thanks so much, Mike. Will definitely look into it ❤️❤️❤️

[@ChristineKelly1000]

I love that Game of Thrones chair.😊❤

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

[@sondraflesch1463]

Well you guys are "special" enough to keep it.. 💞 I hope he makes another.

[@paisley293]

You two are awesome! About the 'bio-digester', look at 'Project Kamp' and their video on how they built a very achievable one. Alsl: I had to laugh @11:50 when you were talking about 'What steps have you taken to reduce your carbon footprint,' and you showed the rooster taking steps on top of the piglets! Perfect! 🤣

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Awesome thanks will definitely check it out x x 🤣🤣 yes I thought it was the perfect clip to use

[@onthebay66]

Yes, sometime it is forgotten that people who subscribe & ring the bell & watch the ads are as important as the patrons, who, if I understand are ad free. Love your vlogs & seeing your progress. I watch your ads by the way as I know it will help

[@kath-phlox]

Another channel I watch (That 1870s Homestead) has been well satisfied with the Bluetti system they started using in the last 2 years at their cabin. Hope it works for you, it should in your sunshine paradise, you can't fail.

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

We love Bluetti , it never let us down 😀

[@ChristopherGordon-x9k]

I live on a farm, not off grid, but isolated, so I understand how and why you attack your projects. I use Bluetti power and love it on my farm.

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

❤️❤️❤️

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Oh my goodness thank you ♥️♥️♥️ we appreciate your generosity so much

[@knelson5442]

I wonder if you could stockpile biochar raw materials in the warm months and then create a biochar furnace to heat your living quarters/hot water systems while creating biochar in the cooler months. Maybe create a closed radiator system in your ruin that is heated by your burn.

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Sounds great ❤️❤️ thanks for the info

[@marymick3402]

🤗💖

[@carolemattina9869]

Great Q&A guys 👍 but my favorite part was...Rupert do a headcount of Peppa's piglets 😍 take care and see you soon ❤

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

[@joycecollins1515]

Love your videos. How long have you two been together? Do you do any canning to preserve things you’ve grown? Make jam ? Your land s beautiful. I wouldn’t be able to work here. I’d spend all my time wandering and reflecting.

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

We have been together for 25 years .Luke does make strawberry and fig jam and preserve a few things but not much as whatever we have extra the pigs usually eat😁
