Just wanted to say hi and respect.
My family and I are looking to do something similar, although I am a bit older then you, we have a 3 year old and a 12 year old and I need them to be safe into the future.
I think things are going to get very bad in the next few years. And am convinced we need to find a way to survive without society.
I think there is more security in a commune, 4 or more families. Kids will need other kids, and the place may need to be defended.
If you have any thoughts or advice I would be very interested. All the best. Carl
