Such a gorgeous book - each shed is unique and inspiring, and I love all the tiny details Kotite features to help readers imagine how to create their own She Sheds kzread.infoUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR . The feature on Dinah's Rustic Retreat is like something from a fairy tale. It's really inspiring to see how creative all these ordinary people are in making beautiful and useful spaces on a modest scale.

i love the slow way of life where it takes all those ingredients and all that grinding and foraging to make a simple spice combo. Makes things feel more important and not as fast and easy as city life.

I grew up chopping and hauling wood every day. At 70 I still have great biceps but we hauled it around in a wheelbarrow.

My dad, Doug, thinks you've done an excellent job. It looks like a lot of hard work & he's really impressed!

All that wonderful fruit.. berries. and greens.. you should start experimenting with making wines and Meads... You have so much abundance of such good ingredients

It's so beautiful nature videos I like nature thank 🙏 you very much 💞❤️💞💕💕💕💗❤️💗❤️

Have you thought about a solar greenhouse with aquaponics for a section of the garden? A old laptop could run it year round, and and raise fish. If you don't like fish much, you could freeze them and trade for firewood with people in the area who community garden for the winter.

I've been gardening 50 years as well as canning, pickelling and blanching then freezing. Best food ever when you grow it yourself. I also live in a city of 750,000 people

Jake has a calming soothing voice. I've been watching--or rather I have been listening to--your vlogs while I sew (so I don't really get to see everything but I like to let it play anyway). I like the stretches of silence in between the dialogue and the sounds from your everyday living in nature and when you work (very calming actually. I don't even think your vlogs need the background music).I could totally see your journey as a documentary one day. Keep up the hard work. Rooting for you both.

I am very impressed by you examplary couple every time working.

Girl is equally helping.she is well build to do tough work.both are adventurers

Off grid life is tough for sure but the benefits far outweigh the toil and hard chores. You are living "pure and free". You are in the lap of Mother Nature. Be blessed and enjoy😁👍

I love a garden and to me, there is nothing like a home grown fresh tomato sandwich with mayo on toasted bread!

Right now I'm thinking how awesome fresh apple pie would taste. Heck, I'm making myself hungry watching this! A lot of work went into it but now look at it! Beautiful. Too bad you don't have time because you could sell your dried products and herb mixtures!! I'd pay top dollar.

Do you live in a rain forest? I love the lifestyle you are living off the grid. Your garden soil look so rich and healthy. Are you going to raise chickens and animals? Keep the videos coming and I will keep watching them. Have a safe and blessed day. Bye from Alabama.

All that wood work brings back childhood memories. Chopped coal as a youngster and thousands of cords of fire wood as a young man. Split fence rails right before college..I both loved and hated the farm..Haha probably part of why I'm disabled now..

I love your program, uhm, Way of Life. If I wasnt already 63 I would be there. Lovs. Jim.

In the spring top your fruit trees. It will make the base stronger and more plentiful. Plus makes the top of the trees fruit easier to harvest. Also the fruit on the ground floor will bring in wildlife. Also gathering the ground fruit for composition for gardening

Make a wood carrying backpack, Nicole. Set it waist high to load and carry more using your legs instead of your arms. Safer and easier. Make break away arms for it so u can just pull a string to unload it without taking it off, then back to the pile to reload.

“Let’s live off the grid. I’ll be fun, he said.” Then you grimace. LOL. I’m positive you’re loving your choices and your life. Good on you, Nicole!

Iifting her on your shoulders picking higher fruits should be in a calendar is you ever consider to create a merch. Not only is it cute, it sends a good message.

hello from germany you two. i have been using a combined wind - solar system for 3 years. I can only say that this is an absolutely efficient thing. In the times when the sun is shining it is mostly calm and in the seasons when there is a lot of wind the sun only shines weakly or not at all. the combination of the two systems for electricity production is therefore the perfect way. In any case, I can only recommend installing such a system. and sorry, my english is not the best.

very nice place for living. really I like what you are doing ... some times you work hard but after you sleep very well. wish you happy times. ...

You have a chain saw. My I suggest. You get a log splitter. I watch a lot of off grid you tube. And some have a log splitter. Will make that part of your life a lot easier

Nicole and Jake suggestion instead of picking up the fire wood and moving all by hand they have or u can make a large open like carrying cart with a half hoop handle , two wheels on the bottom make it like 4 feet high with sides bottom and back but open front, like a two wheeler they use too transport refrigerators or stoves u can stack a bunch and roll a big load at a time. Just use two little oversized inflatable tires. Oops on the loop handle make like a peg handle in the middle of the loop so u can lay the cart back on the ground to stack the wood on the cart.

You could have put all that firewood on a little cart with wheels ( several trips ) and saved a lot of time and energy If it would not roll easily, make you a little path

I would imagine back in time when it was common for people to grow their own food, find a safe source of water, gather wood for heat, and trade excess goods for money or needed supplies, there wasn't much time left in a day to relax. It must have been a very hard life with little time for the activities we take for granted in the lifestyles we live today. It appears that if you're not working towards one thing to provide a food or heat source for the future you're working on a project to expand or increase your ability to provide for next year. From watching your channel I've gained a little insight of how much work it must have taken for early settlers to carve out a new life in the wilderness. What I've come to understand is how much easier life is in modern times as we work our jobs and pay for the things we need and take for granted as we reach out and pick the goods we need to survive from a shelf at a store. But in reality I think we all take for granted the hard work it must have taken to carve a life in the wilderness for our forefathers. Good luck and I hope some time in the near future you're able to find a way to create some time to take a deep breath and enjoy the beauty that surrounds you without thinking about the next project 👍

Hi Jake and Nicole, that Bluetti 200 is a great unit. You should check in the settings as to what Hz it is set at, some ship set at 50Hz. In Canada, the voltage is 120 V with 60 Hz frequency. You can change the setting if you are going to be using any AC appliances.

I think one of the most satisfying aspects of these vids for me is they always have the right tools, vessels, etc for the jobs. Whether in the garden, or forest, or kitchen. Top notch functionality, and aesthetically pleasing.

The way we pick those plums is to put a blanket on the ground and shake the tree. 🤣

Great Video! Just one advice, dont buy those blue coloured solar panels. They are poly crystalline panels and not that efficient, go for the black ones, they are mono crystalline and works really great on cloudy weathers!

Id just like to say you two have one of the healthiest relationships after being off grid for some time now, how long did you know each other before deciding to go off grid....stay strong, stay happy, stay focused .....

Hello Nicole I admire the videos that you and your love made, they are fresh and super interesting I am francophone from the center-west (Vendée) I have origins listed in French-speaking Quebec around Lac St Jean, thank you for the superb videos . your series since the beginning of your installation and I am a subscriber, I collect new ideas wouua for my future participative property sold to be seen elsewhere. Thank you for the excellent content and inspiration in your communication and sharing of hearts! In a place like this I would see a natural fridge with the vibration of the earth, fresh food in the atmosphere of the seasons, I made such a construction in a participatory building site and it works very well. Yours, Jean-Noël

Sometimes I look at my partner and ask her if she thinks other couples are as weird as we are, now I dont have to ask her that anymore! :D Thanks for another awesome episode. :)

Carry the wood in as long a lengths as you can to the house ..... then cut , split and stack ...... save yourselves a million trips with the split wood !!!

I really like the lack of lengthy narratives in your video. You just get right to it.

Yes and a friend of mine used a bicycle mounted stationary with a belt running a high output vehicle alternator off of an ambulance and that went into a bank of deep cycle batteries which ran through an inverter. He used this as a backup charging system because we live in the southern Appalachian Mountains which is also known as a rain forest. Awesome video, thank you

You two are LIVING THE DREAM and making memories of a lifetime. Love your channel and your video editing skills. Keep up the good work. BTW (just curious) how long do you two plan to live out there? The rest of your life?

Watching Jake pick plums and DROP them in the basket and shouting, "DON'T DROP THE FRUIT!!!" , it will bruise! Thus leading to a loss of nutrients, the soft crushed parts will be much more prone to breeding mold and bacteria, especially if you plan to dry it. Just thought might want to know. I can only imagine how good it must smell walking into your yurt, with all those wonderful goodies drying! I love your videos Jake and Nicole.

The mechanical advantage of 4 or 6 pulleys could use a simple rope length into a wood bucking “machine” by lifting a broad, weighted axe head.

One could set up a rotating zip line bucket system from the wood pile to storage area

Make a trailer or sled or wheelbarrow is a good idea too. We burn wood too. We have a gas-operated splitter my husband built. A 21-year-old son that helps too. We are both over 60 too. It never gets easier. You just need to get and use equipment to make it easier.

I agree with Brenda It would be so much easier with a log splitter. Put a log in there and presto you got 4 pieces If I could win the lottery I'd buy you guys 1.

It's gonna get old very fast. There's another living off grid in BC family who've got an amazing set up. Clearly more money but good to look at to make life more manageable. Boats with front wind protection and carts to shuffle wood around. Chopping wood might be fun when young but ... it's a process.

Jake,when you stepped over the electric fence while carrying the solar panal, I cringed a little. Glad it was turned off. Nicole, we went to a wood stove hwen we lost power for about a week in the winter. So glad we made the move, and if I'm honest about it, I love cutting and splitting firewood. It will get easier.

Que velleza cosechando mandanas y durasnos en su propio patio que lindo es la naturaleza saludos desde panamá🍏🍑👏👏👍🇵🇦

I love you guys!!! Your video as Animal planet channel!! Wow!!!Greetings from Moscow!!!

Nicole seemed a little somber this time - have no insight as to reason, but something to consider. Maybe a friend could come to visit- something social? I know Jake chops a lot of wood. I keep wondering if there isn’t a more efficient way to get logs closer to the yurt, and use a gasoline powered splitter. You lay the log section on it, pull a handle, and a wedge flies partway into the end of the log, splitting it. This can be done to process a bulk of wood nearer to the storage rack. Need a small flatbed trailer that you can load up with log sections, then winch or drive the trailer to where you want to deliver the wood - this assumes a reasonably clear roadway or space up to the yurt. Throwing logs and ingots is a recipe for torn arm tendons, rotator cuff surgery, or displaced vertebrae and discs. You are strong when young, but can you do this when you are 65+ ? I’m all in for the solar energy methods. A small wind turbine seems good too - an old APU from a plane, swivel-mounted on a pole, might be a good power generation method. Love to you guys! Things have come soooo far. Just don’t forget to stay in touch with people - we are social creatures - women especially - beauty in the plan! ❤️

It looks like you have the solar panels connected in parallel, which means more current is generated. Portable power stations typically have fairly low limits when it comes to input current, so you would likely not get the maximum power input from the panels due to current limiting. One of the BIG advantages of the new Bluetti AC200 is that it can take higher input voltage from solar panels, which you get when they are connected in series instead of in parallel. It's actually a simpler connection too, with fewer parts required. If you connect your 2 275W panels in series, you would likely get better power input and therefore charge up more quickly, as long as both panels are fully in the sun (i.e. no shade on them).

Thank God for LEVI'S!!!

ARE GUYS VEGETARIANS? AND I LOVE AND WANT THAT BIG WOOD BOWL YOU USE NICOLE THE COLORS ARE AWESOME... MUCH LOVE MUCH RESPECT GUYS BE SAFE HAVE FUN!
