Turning ABANDONED Land Into OFF GRID Paradise (Our Dream Homestead)
Turning ABANDONED Land Into OFF GRID Paradise (Our Dream Homestead) Hey everyone, this week we're making massive progress turning our abandoned italian land into our dream off-grid paradise homestead! we built a huge terrace by hand on our sloped hillside, so we can start growing food next spring, we replanted a small almond tree, created natural pathways with chipped materials and kick-started our new terrace to start the food forest next year. A massive job (as ever), but we're loving seeing our land come to life and start to see the land contours on our little off-grid paradise! Our off-grid homestead in rural italy is slowly transforming from raw abandoned land into a productive permaculture paradise. this episode shows the reality of homestead life - the hard physical work of terracing steep land, moving trees and preparing the soil for our future food forest. this week's homestead projects include: 🏗️ building a massive terrace on sloped land by hand 🌳 replanting an almond tree into the new terrace 🛤️ creating pathways with chipped wood materials 🌱 adding compost and preparing soil ⛏️ hand-digging and earthworks on steep terrain 🪨 terrace construction and land preparation 💚 building the foundation for our dream garden all work done by hand on our off-grid italian homestead - digging, carrying materials uphill and creating the growing systems we need for sustainable living. every project brings us closer to our goal of growing our own food and living self-sufficiently in rural italy. thanks for being here, thanks for watching, emily & robi. 🌱 subscribe for weekly off-grid builds, permaculture projects and land transformation content ➡️ support our homestead: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/anotherhomestead 👇 leave a comment: what was your fave part? do you have tips? 00:00 welcome to our off grid italian homestead 00:38 new BIG construction project begins 04:04 day II: off-grid construction 05:06 construction progress 08:20 homestead maintenance 10:29 measuring 11:10 digging by hand 12:42 relocating a tree 14:35 creating a natural path 17:29 final touches to our project 20:18 homestead update 22:01 outro / next week 📍southern italy | 🏡off-grid living | ☀️100% solar powered #offgrid #offgridhomestead #homesteading #italy #permaculture #buildingahomestead #offgridliving #regenerativeliving
