First Steps On Our New Homestead

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

A few months ago we moved from a homestead that's been in development for over 20 years to a brand new piece of land that's a little bit bigger and closer to town.
Only thing is, it's a blank slate. We're going to start the long road to creating a homestead as frugally as possible, so you can follow along how we build our homestead from the ground up with as little money as possible.

    Hola, brother! We are starting by grafting the trees that we are going to need on our new land. That way, we will be in production -hopefully - in two years. We will be building our channel soon enough and will mention your channel as inspiration if you don't mind. Wishing you the best always.🎉

    Hi Sean. Regarding Worms… Couldn’t you order them on the Internet and have them shipped to you in Hawaii? I think uncle Jim’s worm farm ships them.
