The Modern Homesteading Podcast
Society & Culture:Personal Journals
Today on the podcast we begin with our 30 days of homesteading Q&A where I have reached out to some of the best bloggers and podcasters in the homesteading space to answer your questions about homesteading.
.
Today’s question is “I’m thinking about pursuing an off-grid lifestyle, what are some things I should deeply consider before taking any big steps towards this?”
.
Questions like this are exactly the reason I wanted to host these question and answer episodes because I’m not an off-grid homesteader and really don’t plan to be so I could never answer this question adequately. Instead I passed this question on to someone who is homesteading this way and can answer your question.
.
Here to answer this question is Teri Page from Homestead-Honey.com with some excellent advice for the person considering an off-grid lifestyle.
.
Teri talks with us about many things to consider such as:
compliance to code
levels of off-grid living
off-grid life experience
Budget
Solar
Power
Water catchment and storage
Utilizing resources to gain knowledge
.
