Videos that are an hour long I can never make it all the way through, and then you have your favorites that are 12 minutes long and you wish they were an hour!😄
Dude you need to meditate and work on patience... Just saying... Moses me and my inner circle we can sit through 678 hours of instruction and then download that with demo not that extraordinary for a human being

Hi Brian. The sound of the falling rain is so peaceful. I understand when you say Sierra (my soulful eyed baby) saved you. I wept at the sight of her and miss her dearly!
Your property is gorgeous. Love seeing people making the most of their off-grid homesteads. After all the natural disasters, WW3 mongers and economic uncertainty, having an off-grid homestead sounds like surest form of security long-term, IMO.
As am arborist and new homesteader i love the tree diaper. It absorbs rain or irrigation water and slowly releases it back to the plant when the soil dries. It promotes healthy outward root growth that facilitates establishment of newly planted trees and shrubs & enhances the long-term health. Good luck
I love and miss Sierra so much. I still can’t believe it. I hope you’re doing well Brian. Please take care of yourself. I know Meadow is helping you get through this. She is loved too. ❤
Hi Brian Meadow and dear Sierra in spirit, Been watching and enjoying your videos. We had a funny kitty. We saved each other. Super Duper special. Backyard fruit is sooo delicious. Best wishes for a successful harvest in the future. Your videos are much appreciated. Thanks again. Sincerely, Tanya Joe and the kitties
Meadow, who’s this strange guy that’s taken over your RUclips channel, take the camera away from him, you are the star of this show! 😁😁😁 Looking good Brian.
Hi Meadow. I am the worst fixer upper and an accident waiting to happen, but I luv what you are doing to your property. Go green. I think Sierra lives on thru Meadow. She has a great home and so happy for you both.
Hi Brian and Meadow . You have it looking really nice out there 😊 i can't wait to see your tiny home and all your fruit trees. Lord Brian, you got me at the end with Sierra 😢 it's such a heartbreak 💔 because a big piece of your heart is gone. I know a piece of you is missing. I do know what it is like. ❤❤
right on brian, right on! love all of this. when you have your own property and can build, plant and grow food and trees, and ect, is the most abundant and rich life anyone can be lucky to have. = -) love your content, cant wait for the next. until then, keep rocking on.
Thanks for sharing your progress and plans. I’ve seen some neat videos about a single person using steel studs to put up walls. And insulated metal panels on the roof.
Thank you, I'm very pleased with the way things are turning out so far! It will be fun 5-10 years from now to look back on these videos. Really excited for the future out here!
I just found your channel this morning it looks like you are in my neighborhood I have been working on restoring my 90acers it in nicely to see I am not the only person who sees the potential I just started digging a bass pond on my place
Play Brian when it's not active in there you can dump your gray water that is friendly and send it down to the area to irrigate plant life... Massive potential dude love to see primitive Bushcraft type approach to things... I think that works well in Arizona
Im not sure if plums would grow well there but those are nice. They have those pink and white flowers too that will blow everywhere and act as ground cover. Dont forget to graft different types as well.
When you pointed to where you were planning to planting your cherry trees. You pointed pretty close to each other on the ground from our view thru the camera. Recommendation to plant them far enough apart for them to have room when fully mature. Just a suggestion. I'm sure you already thought of that.
So intriguing, and many questions. Is there a place where people could learn about your goals and intentions. You have a tiny home coming That too cool. How did you find this area of land and how much do you own? Thanks for your time.
There ya go! Ya uploaded the wrong video didn’t ya 😂. Looking good Brian. Looking forward to seeing your land transform. It’s cool now of course. Peace!!!
Thanks for the heads up! Once I responded to your comment, I went back to watch the video and realized I made an error. Enjoy your Friday evening! ~ Brian
Citrus generally don’t do well where it freezes. Will the swales alone supply all the needed water to your trees? Such an amazing piece of land with apparently great rainfall, to be surrounded by so much green.
WOW those swalls look fantastic. The stones are gorgeous there. Is there a reason you don't save the water in a tank or a barrel to water your plants or filter to drink???
Always a pleasant feeling of accomplishment when you see your work, working. When you get to your apple trees, check Skillcult, he is a apple grower and does a lot of crossbreeding in devoloping. He homesteads up in NoCal. Thanks, Bryan!!
Good question! There are many varieties of apples and citrus than can tolerate temps down to 10F. I'm in growing zone 7A so a quick google search will reveal both the citrus and apple trees that can thrive in this environment.
Yeah, I've really been diving into permaculture and want to give it a solid effort here at my place. I look forward to Oct/Nov when I can start planting fruit trees. Looking forward to that first cherry blossom bloom, that is going to be a great day!
I miss Sierra too🥲Those will always be the good ole days. Your water retention projects are really fascinating segments as well as many others. Cheers Brian.
Good question! The reason is because they are 1200ft deep in my area. I'm lucky to have an awesome community well with incredibly delicious water that's tested out as some of the purest water in the country. I only pay $92 per year for access to the well and road maintenance, can't really justify spending over $60K to hopefully hit an aquifer beneath my land. I'd rather use those funds to build out my place and go on road trips. Enjoy your start to the weekend!

Gotra see that new suspension Bri! 💕👍 love all the hard work you're doing 💪
You are doing a beautiful job. Your dog heard you say you needed to dig deeper in the swell. 😂 She was just helping 😂

Good morning Brian you have done a very good job meadow you have grown up a lot,,,,,,, sierra we miss you always we loved you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Soothing... I lived on catchment for 20 years. Rain is my kind of music.
They are never in our lives long enough but they bring so much love.
Such great content,Its great to see people improving their land instead of destroying it.
As am arborist and new homesteader i love the tree diaper. It absorbs rain or irrigation water and slowly releases it back to the plant when the soil dries. It promotes healthy outward root growth that facilitates establishment of newly planted trees and shrubs & enhances the long-term health. Good luck
Right on, thanks for the info! I'll definitely look into the tree diaper. Have a great start to your weekend!
Brian I like how you have created a little slice of paradise that really feels like our piece of paradise.
I love and miss Sierra so much. I still can’t believe it. I hope you’re doing well Brian. Please take care of yourself. I know Meadow is helping you get through this. She is loved too. ❤
Awesome little tribute to Sierra, that's great you have so much footage of her.
❤

So glad to see all you're hard work pay off.✌️
Thanks man! I'm pretty excited with the way things are progressing here at my place.
What a beautiful homestead you have. You may not even need a Tiny home because your little camper is so cozy. 😊
Thank you for the update. This is a really good inspiration. Looking forward to see the planting of the trees. Hope you're having a good day.
Meadow, who’s this strange guy that’s taken over your RUclips channel, take the camera away from him, you are the star of this show! 😁😁😁
Looking good Brian.
Keep up the good work. We are practically neighbors.
Hi Meadow. I am the worst fixer upper and an accident waiting to happen, but I luv what you are doing to your property. Go green.
I think Sierra lives on thru Meadow. She has a great home and so happy for you both.
Who ever thought you could have a yard in the high desert?!! The Property looks incredible.
Thanks man!
Hi Brian and Meadow . You have it looking really nice out there 😊 i can't wait to see your tiny home and all your fruit trees.

The swales are doing their job and everything is going smoothly on the home front. Take care Brian and Meadow.
Great video......your efforts are paying off!!!
right on brian, right on! love all of this. when you have your own property and can build, plant and grow food and trees, and ect, is the most abundant and rich life anyone can be lucky to have. = -) love your content, cant wait for the next. until then, keep rocking on.
Looks like show low Arizona. I live here too. Working on some sustainable stuff. Wind, heat, clay soil and water catchment issues. Best to you.
Damn ! Made shed tears again !
Awesome work Brian!
Thanks for sharing your progress and plans. I’ve seen some neat videos about a single person using steel studs to put up walls. And insulated metal panels on the roof.
I was so angry at something. So I thought I'd watch your videos to get me on where I want to be. Thanks Medow and Brian
Was actually watching videos a few weeks back about the green wall in Africa, pretty amazing stuff
Thanks for the update!
Ahhhhh.. the Summer rains, no wonder the settlers stayed there so long. 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸Meadow def at Home, patrolling 😁😁. Peace bro. 🙏🙏
Nice! That works great!😊🎉
That’s looking awesome brother !! Not going to recognize it next time I visit.
Love your place 😍 it's going to be Beautiful when it's done 👍.
Thank you, I'm very pleased with the way things are turning out so far! It will be fun 5-10 years from now to look back on these videos. Really excited for the future out here!
Definitely carving out your own piece of paradise, looking awesome Brother your hard work is definitely paying off👍
I just found your channel this morning it looks like you are in my neighborhood I have been working on restoring my 90acers it in nicely to see I am not the only person who sees the potential I just started digging a bass pond on my place
Looking great! You forgot to show us the new truck suspension.
Play Brian when it's not active in there you can dump your gray water that is friendly and send it down to the area to irrigate plant life... Massive potential dude love to see primitive Bushcraft type approach to things... I think that works well in Arizona
Don’t forget to tell us about your Tacoma suspension! I’m doing mine too so I like to hear others details ✌🏼 and tire size!
First, nice🎉
Im not sure if plums would grow well there but those are nice. They have those pink and white flowers too that will blow everywhere and act as ground cover. Dont forget to graft different types as well.

Man you are getting the rain up there been kind of a dud here in the Willcox area.
2 cherry trees yummy. Will green apple 🍏 or preach 🍑 grow there?
Check out the history of peaches in your region of the country. Peaches and plums would be excellent hardy additions.
Humble beginnings end up in Epic endings
Couldn't agree more! Really excited to see how things are unfolding out here.
So intriguing, and many questions. Is there a place where people could learn about your goals and intentions. You have a tiny home coming That too cool. How did you find this area of land and how much do you own? Thanks for your time.

😮
I want a hot-tub, how do I justify that? Aha, swales!
Do plan to add some biosoil additives to help get microbs starting to make soil more fertile?
I hope you plan on name a fruit tree after Sierra
Rick, that's a great idea!
QUESTION: What variety of cherry trees is going to fruit with the freeze hours of Northern AZ??
Citrus and apples in the same area? Don’t they need and tolerate different extreme weather?
Good question! There are many varieties of apples and citrus than can tolerate temps down to 10F. I'm in growing zone 7A so a quick google search will reveal both the citrus and apple trees that can thrive in this environment.
Damn , Brian you did some serious research into this didn't you ?
Yeah, I've really been diving into permaculture and want to give it a solid effort here at my place. I look forward to Oct/Nov when I can start planting fruit trees. Looking forward to that first cherry blossom bloom, that is going to be a great day!
Seems that citrus would freeze at the higher elevation
Anyone know the breed of his dog?
If you don't mind, which county are you in. My high desert is in apache county, and i was curious if i will be the same building codes.
Hey buddy are you going live tonight
No, the rains didn’t hit my area so I’m planning to go live tomorrow afternoon.

Some of us "Off-Grid" homesteaders from RUclips are meeting once a month in Seligman for lunch...... Interested?
Yes, I’d love to join you all! When is the next lunch meeting?
@@OffGridBackcountryAdventures next date will be Sept 17th
Do you ever find evidence of native Americans doing this kind of mini irrigation work in your area ?
I miss Sierra too🥲Those will always be the good ole days. Your water retention projects are really fascinating segments as well as many others. Cheers Brian.

Why don't you dig a well?
Good question! The reason is because they are 1200ft deep in my area. I'm lucky to have an awesome community well with incredibly delicious water that's tested out as some of the purest water in the country. I only pay $92 per year for access to the well and road maintenance, can't really justify spending over $60K to hopefully hit an aquifer beneath my land.
