RE: Radical Simplicity: Living in under 150 sq ft on our Off Grid Homestead
No way, that's not cheating...it's just extra space! It's a very cool story, I like that you call it a Cedar Sanctuary. Those potatoes look delicious and that boudoir, you guys built that?
Hey I was wondering if you could give us again the name of that episode from that Discovery Channel’s Homestead Rescue, is it under Mountain Jewel?
Thanks for another very inspiring post!!!!
Hahah! thanks for your vote of support @senorcoconut! Those sweet potatoes are continually delicious for us! It was our first time curing and it went well. Yes we built the boudoir- with reclaimed wood from our friend’s barn and the cedar paneling you see- maybe we should do a post about that??
Haha the episode is called Ozark mountain misery ! You can find it here
Thank you, I just found it on the actual channel's web site and borrowed a friend's cable network password. I'll watch it sometime today. After playing in the snow storm. The snow gets really dirty in New York City so we have to take advantage of it early!
Awesome, curious to hear your thoughts! Oh have fun in thee SNOW! :)
Just finished watching it... wow, it was a crazy adventure!!!
The mold was really starting to get you. and salvaged pieces from the Yurt?How did all that cedar just show up? I know it came from a neighbor but how did he know to bring it to you?
And everyone coming to help in the crunch, so great. I picked up on some tricks like the transferring of lines from one log to the next for cutting out the notch... I would like to see more details on the fish smoker, that was really cool too.
What a beautiful job you guys did on the log cabin! I don't know you guys but I feel proud for some reason! It was amazing!!!
I actually didn't know until I joined steemit about The Ozarks... so many homesteaders in the region and than the show tells about it too. Have a happy New Year, now the home is built and the irrigation system in place you will grow fast!
Haha glad you enjoyed it! It was a wild ride for sure and turned out beautifully in the end.
The wood was actually mostly already cut and prepared as a co called Sticks & Stones built most of the House ;) tv drama stuff they made it look differently! We did use the floor of the yurt for the building, which was a beautiful reclaimed poplar. We’ve got more pics of the fish smoker- perhaps we'll make s post :)
Beautiful in deed! I work in the film industry and many friends who do reality, told me about it being scripted to some extent with big accents on the drama side of it all...apparently drama sells (as we see on all news channels for example).
I would really like to see that post on the smoker and I'm sure others who follow you will too. You're doing really good.
Thanks mate <3
De nada!
