Looking for a person or couple w/ or w/o kids to join our early stages homestead. We are in our 30's with 2 kids, we have 20 acres. Projects are slower moving then we would like, and would love to have somebody join us in our goal of off grid
sustainability. we do all organic, no chemicals, try to stay away from EMF, we plan to homeschool, we are not vegan, we have animals, but have been leaning more towards
vegetarian. we are preparing to be totally reliant on our homestead. if you have a kid/kids my idea was to swap the kids back and forth possibly after getting to know one another so each of us could get some things done and the kids have plenty of play dates. we need help with planting, digging ponds/swales,
greenhouse work, fencing and
shelters for animals, and more in the future, there will never be a time where there isn't something to do. we want to grow a bond with a few people or couples, goal being helping eachother with all the responsibilities and projects of self sustainability and get through any tough times ahead. we have no connected grid electric, some
solar, no
water besides the rain. we started a small
pond, and plan to do lots more. plans to do a permanent earth sheltered home and barn and
greenhouse. there is multiple wet weather creeks, and a possibly spring (we are trying to get/find more water) we have started a
permaculture orchard recently. we have been antisocial, not going out to many places, we have just been here getting things done, but we are very much craving community and feel it's important to have more people on board, it will be easier on everybody, and i think becoming close to other people is important for the soul. we are very spiritual people, we are not Christians but know a lot of the history. we strive for positivity, peace, happiness, and hope to ascend out of this matrix someday!
