Not for the squeamish, I butcher a black bear that an Instagram friend gave to me from a hunter at his nearby deer camp. I end up with 50+ meals of high quality wild game meat which I package and freeze overnight before burying it in the ground behind my log cabin and covering it in straw for insulation to keep it frozen in the event of a warm spell

I am surprised you don't have a food grade 50 gallon barrel with a lid. Bear proof.
Change your electric frig to a Propane refrigerator no electric required Amish use them all the time, save of your power. In Pennsylvania Amish also use Solar a lot less on diesel for generators.
Bellows cheater Lol.
Keep your egg shells, chickens eat them plus grind shells tiny an place around base of plants keeps snails an worms off plants. Snails walking on glass shards.
Got Ladybugs, great for gardens eats lots if bugs. Place to buy them on Ebay ladybug larve. Hope to them this year. No ladybugs for 4 yrs. Devastation on most every plant.
Kale leaves eaten but can remove destroyed leaves plant will still grow.
Saw a video today, how a guy lived in a tiny house used gravity fed water coming from Blue barrel for rain water.
Chickens eat any food waste, plus hot oatmeal. Warm rocks on stove ever morning use oven gloves place in their water bowl will melt ice.
Go to staryhilder on you tube Think old videos still there, .garden tricks other stuff.

I Always wondered how you would store your meat. I thought you would have to salt it. Silly me That is such a great idea! The fridge even as small as it is is a power drainer. Living of the solar panels brilliant. This is just so Educational, Interesting, and so relaxing. Thank you for sharing your life Shawn, cali and family. I really hate T. V, so called reality shows, talk shows e. t. c. but your Video's are just plain Relaxing. 10/10 Thank you, your November is the start of the heat here in Victoria Australia and I dread it. Your snow video's are my favourite. Thank you so much.

So my question is with the outhouse, it has to be below 0 in there. How could you possibly use the bathroom without freezing? Maybe some type of toilet seat that stays in the cabin so its at least warm when you need it and you just take it back and forth as needed? Your just sitting on it, right? Kind of a gross question but I was wondering because at 3 in the morning and you gotta go and you jump out of a warm bed and into a -15 degree outhouse would be kind of BRRRRRR!

Its interesting to go back and relook at how things evolved. The thought that went into it, especially the whys. I like the self reliance because there are a lot of cross currents in life that destabelize. Security and stability based on faith and clossness to nature first. Then build.

I used styrofoam iceboxes for potatoes in my moms garage during winter! Worked great! She lived in eastern Oregon, Ontario! Lots of snow and freezing weather!

I was wondering how it really works with having the meat outside like this and the bears. I guess in November those are still deep asleep. But in spring?

ICE HOUSE. straw plus ice harvested from the lake in the winter and you'll have a quality refrigeration system. zero electricity required.
