Raising Five Kids In A Wall Tent In The Wilderness

Meet Ryan and Christina who are raising five kids in the wilderness in extreme northern BC near the Yukon border. How do they survive winters of minus 40 degrees? They forage and hunt and fish to provide food, almost never buying it. How do they cook? How do they function without any power whatsoever, no phone at all, and nothing but oil lamps for light?
The part where I mentioned Christina smoking something was just a joke.

We have a garden as well. Weaning off all canned goods ....and water is tricky. We will have to remain on one utility sadly but Kansas winter's aren't to brutal we installed a nice wood stove we can also cook on as well. Our grandkids think we are camping all the time and love that they can have smores allot!! Lol. Again it's an experiment and the idea was to get to 0 on utility bills .. probably a dream but we are learning a lot!! 😊😊

Get a water tank or tote and paint it black on the outside and leave it sit in the sun. Your water will get nice and hot, especially in summer. Not sure how your winters are but it might not work for you then. But you can save a lot of fuel and work using the rest of the year. Hope that helps. I’ve lived an interesting life so I have experienced many things.. off grid living without most modern conveniences being one of them. Hauled water up by the bucket from a well and hand washed clothes with a scrub board. Kerosene oil lamps and cooked over a wood fire. Made an oven of sorts out of an old tin box so I could bake. It was quite the adventure and sometimes hubby and I miss it. Showers in the warm summer rain especially.

[@rea7203]

@maverick, not all the younger generation in America have lost their skills to hunt and gather. My brothers took their boys and daughter hunting and they are in their 20's. I also have plenty of friends who still hunt and gather their food. So I'm fairly certain there's still plenty of young folk in the ol U.S. of A that hunt and fish for food. If things keep moving along the way they are now, I'm pretty sure a lot of us will either learn to hunt and gather again to survive or starve to death. Such a shame to what this country has become. I was raised on a farm and learned to work for everything I got. Working in the fields and growing food in a garden, shelling peas and butter beans under a big oak tree with my aunts and grandmother, and preserving everything we could for winter, swimming in the old pond, riding horses and dune buggies back in the fields, and a zip line for fun. An old barn on our property with a hay loft was our club house and my brothers would get on the tin roof and slide down, it was pretty low to the ground but I was never brave enough to try that. My dad would take us kids fishing and shooting the guns and build a camp fire to have some pork n' beans. I used to think we were poor when I was growing up bc we didn't have a lot extra and we wore a lot of hand me downs but now I realize compared to this day and time we were rich. My parents taught us a lot of valuable lessons and bc we were so far in the country I didn't get to go visit other girls much, so my brothers and my uncle and aunt who are close to our age were our play mates. When I got tired of reading and doing other things for fun I taught myself how to sew on Mama's old black cast iron singer sewing machine and also taught myself to embroidery. I'm so thankful for those memories I just wish I could have been able to raise my own children on a farm. Although I did teach my girls great values and taught them how to do for themselves they weren't able to work on a farm pulling weeds out of the crops and cropping, stringing and unstringing tobacco...

Nothing wrong with that.

Though the kids seem genuinely interesting & intelligent, I am curious to what schooling they are involved in? Nowadays, everything is done online or right in public school & these kids only have one laptop & that doesn’t sound to be up & running 247. So many people claim to be living off grid lifestyles but still have solar, etc. this family truly lives off grid! Kudos’ to you. At the same time they all need to be learning trades as bartering won’t pay the bills for them later on in life. Still, I’m pleasantly surprised & proud of them all. The only part of this families lifestyle that is worrisome to me is living in a tent that can be ripped to shreds by bears & wolves alike; I feel that a solid log home is in order for the safety of all. ❤️💚
