Description

Yes, You Too Can Live Off The Grid

Living off the grid is a concept that many people often think about but few people really do. In their case, the Spanfelners first went through the thought process of why they wanted to live off the grid in the first place. Once they concluded that they did - and all their reasons are here - they then elected not to build a new cabin from the ground up, but instead find an existing structure and fix it. They eventuallly found a classic fixer-upper deep in the woods of Northern California, bought it, then got to work - focusing on such off-the-grid necessities as a power supply, constant supply of water, a constant heat source, and much more. Tips in the useful guide cover everything from building, plumbing, and electricity to growing food in a sustainable way to dealing with emergencies. This book will tell you how to do it all, and how to do it the right way.

About the Author

Author Roxyann Spanfelner and her husband Gary live on their off-grid cattle ranch with Greta, their Belgian Shepard, joining about a million others across America. Maybe you should too! If you're on the fence, this book will have you leaping over it into "greener pastures" -reaping the rewards of total self-sufficiency.

Praise for A Cabin in the Forest: How to Find, Renovate, and Run The Perfect Off-Grid Retreat

"I heartily recommend [A Cabin in the Forest] to anyone who is either seriously trying to live off-grid, dreaming of maybe one day living off-grid, or would simply like to read about those who have the same exceptional pioneer spirit our hearty forefathers had that were instrumental in developing the greatest experiment in self-governance called America. [The author's] grit and perseverance, melding with her knowledge of the science necessary to create independence from the wants of society, while living in harmony with mother nature (as long as mother nature agrees), is simply remarkable." —Francesco Ricci III, PhD, ChT
