RE: What I have Learned about Buying Off Grid Property

in ecoTrain3 years ago

We have a well, which provides us good water. We have a good aquifer underneath us. I think the next big step is building a sandbag earth ship. That is my goal. But it is an overwhelming one!

Biggest advice for that... Start. And one shovel at a time.

Yep I'm right! I met him at rainbow Washington State 2011 and got his books and one signed. I've got an open welcome.

Just get shovel out and start digging one shovel at a time and make a bigger hole and draw your lines out and visualize where you're going but start to remove material slowly and consistently over time.

Up until you can get more funding to get in an excavator that would be an interesting fundraising goal for enabling you...

Yeah, that is a good point. Baby steps!
