Our refrigerator died during the hottest week of the year. and took more than a week to repair. Here's how we handled it.

One year in, we would move from the city to the mountains again. If you are looking to go rural, maybe you can benefit from our experiences.

Our local wildlife becomes more visible as winter approaches and they are trying to pack on the pounds. Also some unrelated comments about inflation.

It's the time of year to start your small gas-powered engines, change the oil, grease the moving parts, and make sure your equipment is ready.

We added two raised beds as we continue to build infrastructure to support a more self-sufficient lifestyle.

We face our second hurricane in two weeks, prepare for cooler temperatures and ready our bees to get through the winter.

With spring giving way to summer and summer storms rolling through, we have to plan our work around the weather. There always seems to be more to be done.

Will the world as we know it come crashing down because of supply chain shortages? It's certainly possible as shortages may persist for years.

Bears and warmer weather return to the homestead. Hopefully we'll see the last of the bears once it turns cold again and stays cold.

Raising rabbits produces meat rapidly and inexpensively. They take up little room and an be raised almost anywhere, making them perfect for preppers.
