5 Reasons NOT To Homestead Or GO OFFGRID
5 Reasons NOT To Homestead Or GO OFFGRID
Hello beauties! Welcome to Maple Monkey Homestead! Thanks for checking out the channel and seeing what's happening around the homestead.
In todays episode I have put together 5 reasons not to homestead. Ive always heard of people giving their fairy tale stories of going offgrid or starting a homestead and it definitely isn't realistic for everyone so I came up with 5 reasons not to homestead.
Now don't get me wrong, I think everyone should homestead or be offgrid to one extent or another, we need to start being in control of our houses and foods again like our grandparents and great grandparents were.

Hey! I have a home recording studio I’m putting together and I’m debating on wood vs drywall. Does the wood in that room echo/reverberate in that room? Anything helps. Thank you
I think it does bit better at deading the sound than drywall as there are the ridges both top and bottom so its not completely flat but just an opinion
@@MapleMonkeyHomestead Thank you!
# 1 is probably the best point. #2 its doable , no difference in buying a home in this day in age. #3 nothing new here like number 2….thats life in general. #4 yes more your responsible for but rewarding when accomplished. #5 i think most would realize that shitting in a bucket is a reality if they are even considering this……# 6 not to why not but why ….you love it and are doing it… Thanks enjoyed….
Nice what are your thoughts on soaking in peroxide, tea, or snipping the radicals off for faster germination?
What is the height of your roof please?
Another great find! Can't wait to try what you make with this 😊
In Ukraine we call it "Іван-чай" it means "John-tea" :-)
Might need to sort those gaps in the ends first
It all depends on what standard of living you feel you need to have. If you want unlimited utilities, yes it will cost a bit. But if you're willing to lower your standards, it can be very cheap compared to buying a conventional house/property. All you really "need" is land and shelter of some kind. I lived in a $1000 trailer for years. Out house, rainwater and a $200 generator. $15k for my 5 acres of land. I had a cheap health club membership for showers. Now I plan to build a $10k house with a $5k solar system and I will very comfortable. Will have $35k total into it. Only bill is starlink internet ($120 monthly) and $700 yearly in property taxes. Gardens can be almost free(seeds). Electric bikes are super cheap transportation. (Note there are only a few places left that will let you do this, but do they still exist. )
Thankfully you're very familiar with those hats 😊
Something I've said for many years are the 6P's. Proper Planning Prevents Pịss Poor Performance. If it was cheap and easy EVERYONE would be doing it. Sometimes the failures in life are just ways of showing us that we must keep trying to better ourselves and not give up. 💯 ❤
Can't be more expensive than paying for a house there
You can do without and work as you go
Hey
Hey Hope! Blessed Wednesday
Thanks!
You're awesome Hope! Thanks so much
Obviously it's expensive, it's indulgent but buying everything you need to build self sufficiently costs and, not only money
Amen! Definitely true
You’re one of the only off grid homesteaders that actually tell the truth. Keep up the good work! 🎉👍🏼
Thanks so much Margie! The lifestyle has been romantised so I'm just trying to be real :) Not to say ya can't have both, but it's not all sunshine and rainbows as alot portray
Definitely a good point a lot of people gloss over. That’s a big thing too, even seeing family for a weekend or something small would become an ordeal
For sure! Didn't even think of it when I got the chickens. Makes it interesting to say the least hahaha
You're cooking with grease,baby
Yee haw!! Bob's your uncle
I love the idea of homesteading/off grid. But the reality is... I am a city girl.
Completely understandable. Couldn't imagine 100+ years ago when it would be literally life or death
I don't like hats 🤥
🤣🤣
Gotta be keeping things real with ya"ll. Just some reasons I have come across in my journey on why not to homestead or go offgrid
Sorry, but you know this will happen and you should be responsible enough to make sure it didn’t happen. To top it off you had to tell how you had to get your hatchet to finish them off. Will not be. watching again!
Haha do what ya gotta do dear and I will do the same. Cheers
Kinda freaky to hear those groans I bet 😳
Little nerve racking but I know she's built solid
Whoop Whoop, good job
Thank ya!!
Fail is first attempt in learning! Do it your way and keep on truckin 😊
Always!
Good to get that job done! A little nerve wracking to watch lol You've got some exciting plans comin up... can't wait to follow along!
Looking real jacked,baby
Whoop whoop!!
Did you hook up the chickens yet do them first plz dying to see the kitchen
Chickens have been doing good since the attack. Still laying and haven't lost any more thank the good Lord
What are the rules for building tiny houses over there? Here it was 10m2 then 30m2 just increased to 60m2. But it has to be a secondary dwelling without plumbing or kitchen. If you add plumbing or a kitchen still lots of red tape and fees. There is a lot more to it than that, with regs, fees & restrictions. You can have a open air outdoor bathroom and kitchen, light weight materials, built to about the same standard as a mainstream house. 3.5m tall at max, no more than 1m off the ground from memory.
It depends on which region you live in as they are all different. Pretty ridiculous none the less. Back in the day, you need it, you build it. No muss no fuss. How we have fallen
So happy to see you back I am praying you will keep going this time no matter what unforseen issues come up we must overcome all obstacles to progress stay blessed❤
Thank you, I will keep going. Would love to reach that 10k mark
Good job. So when do you plan on finishing the interior since it’s not much to do ?😊
Slowly working away at it. Mostly a money thing. Need more materials and have no money hahaha story of my life 🤣 BUT end of summer is my goal to get alot or things done so we shall see :)
Big task checked off the list!
He's beyond excited and havin a great ole conversation with you 😂😂😂❤🐕🏡
Oh, we have good conversations!
Relax Max
Hahaha yea he's just abit excited. I prob didn't help either 🤣
Hi Adam such a shame to hear this about your chickens ❤
Yea it was a downer but completely understandable, just gotta learn and keep going :)
1st :)
You the man!! 💪💪
Youre Eyes are Astonishing 😍
Thank you!
If it's free I'll have it even if u don't need it trade it 💯
Bingo! If I had a barn or garage it would be filled with free finds for future projects or barter
It's a epic cabin. What are you going to clad the outside in? Try making a snare for them, can you or a dog eat a racoon? Or is the fur worth anything, convert it back into replacement chicken. Plan C: 3D print chicken combat armor. Extra chickens are always good for when some go off laying. Upcycling for the win 👍 Might pay to keep a bit closer tabs on your plastic waste. It'll get lost in growth and soil. Microplastics, leaching, all not good stuff. It'll end up in plants grown in that soil. There was a study that people that drank water from plastic water bottles have far higher levels of microplastics in their system. Luckily water is safe here as long as it's not below farms or tourists. With higher temps some areas are starting to grow toxic algae. Have a good one dude 🙂
Yea damn raccoons! I like the idea of the chicken Armour, they'd look pretty sick then! Thinking about vinyl siding or doing a board and batton for the exterior cladding. I want to try raccoon, I know it's edible plus then I'd get a hat out of it too. They haven't been back after they received a few pellets on their hindside. Always somethings here at the homestead. Cheers brother
Poor ladies! Everything has to eat I guess.... sad as it is. Love the fence addition....really finishes off the front of the homestead
You are the PRO at scavenging if you ask me! I've seen your treasures come back to life time after time 👏👏👏🔥
I try hahaha
Stay positive.... so important!!
Amen!!
Are you on TickTock?
I have an account but haven't uploaded in quite sometime. Been focusing on YT
Awesome
Thanks!!
Actually this is perfect advice. It took me some time but it's worth it.👍🇺🇸
Right! Takes awhile to reprogram but definitely worth it. Still trying to do the same myself actually hahaha
Nice1
Thanks
Oh hell nah this creepy asf
Hahaha nothing creepy here
Square tote, 12 volt RV pump, propane on demand water heater, that is what I have along with the bathroom I built detached from the cabin . The fridge works pretty good off my 800 watt harbor freight system. 18 months and going strong. Keep it up buddy.
Thanks so much Don! Great idea!! I have some ideas, I'm just trying to get situated with a kitchen so I can start to get some of them working in real life! Fingers crossed by the end of summer :)
Yes! Comparison is the thief of joy! You’re doing great. Keep up the good work! I love your videos! 🥰
Thanks so much Margie!! Keep on trucking :)
They're on my prayer list 🙏 😊
Thank ya!! His Time. His Will
