This is how we escaped the system & got off grid - how much did it cost the real truth - Ep. 157 Dr: Hello, having worked out in the bush in Alaska, most groups of people or at least someone on the survey team had a firearm. I always wondered if you had a firearm nearby in case of emergency. Even an eagle could have an eye on one of your pooches or as you mentioned in this video, you were always alert for the bigger animals, especially bears (I guess one make its way into the yurt once. How are you going to protect yourself? Hopefully not with your beautiful kitchen knives (lol. If you answer this this, thank you. Be safe and enjoy, Jeff, from the Great Lakes area, Ohio.

Hello from Killeen, Texas. Thank you for all the information. I am 41 years old and have been fascinated with off grid living since I was a very small child. I watched Blue Lagoon (LOL) when I was around 5 and have never quit dreaming of living off grid. Also, my Aunt and Uncle lived in the country in Amarillo, TX. I spent a lot of time at their house. We would go explore the acres of land which still had dilapidated bunk houses from the old days. I have always dreamed of using the ways of my ancestors and living off the land. Thank you for being such inspirations!

Cons in my city, where I live: My car got robbed, my other car got stolen. The water is filled with so many things that you do not want (Fluoride is a biggie for me. My neighbors are so noisy and I have Left neighbors, right neighbors, and adjacent neighbors attached. And also above neighbors. It SUCKS, noisy and smokers so I can't enjoy the breeze. I can't grow my own food. If the power goes out, I'm 100% screwed. By the way, I never ever ever go to the hospital. I went once in the past 25 years. I'm in my 40's.

I m 65, I have 5 acres and a house I inherited from my parents a 30 minute drive south of Atlanta. Since I retired almost 2 years ago, I have built a no dig organic garden. I make my own compost, use almost all recycled lumber to build my raised beds. I ll be getting chickens next spring. My son is going to figure out the least expensive way to build our own solar power system DIY.
I am happier than I have ever been in all my 65 years!

Phooie missed the LIVE. White vinegar really helps with mold. I clean with it. Put it in the rinse to take mold smell out of clothes. Put it in a bowl to pull smells out of a dwelling. Look it up. I ve been using it for years. I d love to see LIVE on natures edibles around you. Tinctures, teas, incorporating in your daily eating. P. S. love your videos. Thank you for sharing.

There is a powder like chemical free earth and human friendly substance that you could put down for any exoskeleton bugs there are 2 of the same one is for your household and the other is for your garden it s called Deamatious Earth it s made from the earth it s seashells and minerals. The bugs walk through it and will cut them like glass and they bleed out.

I appreciate all you both have shared over the years. I am from the Arkansas City Kansas area and have applied some of your garden concepts here. We don't get the water you get there but the ideas and concepts can work in both areas. Know that you both have impacted a lot of folks and your videos are a joy to watch. Many Thanks. Perry

Totally get what you say about living in nature is easier. I've actually learned that by being homeless. Even though living in a tent in nature is hard hard work with everything you do. it is honestly easier. I'm so glad someone else understands this. No one had got it when I say it's hard but it's easy at the same time.

I just marvel at you guys! Your guts, will and your infatuation with nature. That's where we came from and that's where we should dwell in tune with the elements. Lucky you! Enjoy the bliss and blessings of mother nature which all are bestowed on us so graciously by The One and Only!
Cheers guys & hug to Fox!

I sincery appreciate the plus and minus of your lives. The beauty of your location is undeniable. What we realize, as we approach our 70's, this is something we could not do. Youth, and buiding up to this lifestyle in your youth, has to be the first rule. So happy that you share Fox with all of us!

Most of your viewers are living in big cities and don't have a clue how to survive in the wilderness. Let's see what happens when everyting closes down in the near future. The only thing they fill the cart with at Wallmart is toilet paper, this happens around the world at all major crisis.
