Welcome to our 30 day off-grid build for October of 2023! Weβre assembling sustainable, affordable, off-grid systems to provide for the 5 basic physiological needs for 2-4 humans: Creative shelter, fresh water, green sanitation, clean energy, and local food are things that make the world truly better and more enjoyable. Beyond having fun building all of this and sharing it with you, one big goal for this project is to clearly illustrate how creative & sustainable solutions can solve our housing affordability crisis and free young people to avoid working paycheck to paycheck to survive in our modern economy. We need a fresh vision for living well! Many people are seeking a closer connection to nature, a slower pace of life, an affordable lifestyle, a sustainable lifestyle, and freedom from being indentured to our modern economic system. Mostly though, we just love building off-grid systems!

We're thrilled to have Continuous Resources as a sponsor for this video providing the solar panel system we're installing!
Weβre proud to to have partnerships and sponsorships with these innovative companies. We only use and promote products we truly believe in for off-grid living. These tools allow us to live more sustainably and affordably.
We want to reclaim our time, our health, and finances, and a sense of peace. We want to help you and millions of others do the same. This takes designing our lives to be more local, more sustainable, more affordable and generally more off-grid. We want to swim out of the mainstream, we want to opt-out, slow down, to live more simply and locally. We want to educate as many people as we can about this affordable and sustainable lifestyle of living well with decentralized, off-grid systems.
