The Campfire Trail: November 3 - DIY Homestead - An Upcoming Completely Off-Grid Project

November 3, 2022

Day 398 of the Adventure

We have a planned Off-Grid cabin project in the works this winter. Many of you have been following our current cabin project and it's getting close to being finished.

Before reading further, please consider Subscribing to our YouTube channel through the video links on this page. (It will be important as we begin our next project)

The Big News......... With the cabin nearing completion, we are starting to gear up for the next installment at Camp Run-Amuck. It will be a true Off-Grid cabin with a system to catch rainwater and spring water. We will also be setting up a small solar power system to power lights and likely a water pump. Besides the "How-To" on the construction, we plan to dive into the process of searching for, and purchasing land. Maybe the most interesting will be discussions on income generation. The best part is that we plan to dissect the entire process into manageable pieces and teach as we go. We hope you've gotten a good taste of how we do things. (See the picture of the cabin above) It's going to be an exciting project and we would love to hear from you along the way.
