Thread: Getting back to living off the land.....

Thank you for the great thread bumlefoot. Nice to see it continue as an inspiration to us all.
By the end of next year we should have our place sorted as best we can but even at the stage we’re at now has seen us get through the last three years without so much as a twitch. I’ll be much happier when the permanent gardens and tunnel houses are in but some more building work needs to be completed first.
A coastal aspect has its challenges, still a great growing area, just needs adequate wind protection. Trying to decide on the right fruit trees for the environment has taken a bit of research but managed to narrow it down to a good handful. It will be a plant and see I think. Anyway, keeps me busy and frankly, don’t know how I ever had time for work

I reckon the best part of being a bit more self sufficient, which anyone can do anywhere, is that you gain a sense of control over your life and the great deal of self satisfaction in doing shit for yourself and/or family. Carry on the good work.
Cheers, Sidetrack
