Thread: New Zealand Off Grid Living And Homesteading

Interesting thread Alaskaman.
I know (or know of) a number of people who have bought large bush or scrub blocks and used diggers/dozers/Powergel to re-open the disused logging roads from years ago. Sometimes an old skid site has been used as house site.
When visiting small rural towns I always check out the local real estate agency for remote bush blocks...have seen some 200-1000 acre blocks for as little $$ as a section in the city. Helps if it`s NOT near a beautiful sandy beach or scenic lake. Have always liked the idea of a private 5 km driveway to my own hut!
