I enjoy content like this, living off grid and homesteading teaches people plentyy of skills they never knew they had because it forces you to learn and do everything DIY
You've done an amazing job so far. You should all be very proud of yourselves. Living the dream. I agree that it's hard to admire your work when you still have so much to do. Keep it up. This is one of my favourite channels along with Kris Harbour, Charles Dowding and the Dutch Farmer
I was fascinated by the entire process. You all are teaching your children how important the earth is. I am truly having such a warm feeling about all of you.
You have done so well ! I always say , whenever you feel disheartened or overwhelmed by all the work there is to do just stop and look at what you have already done !
This is really really wonderful to watch!! We bought a 62 acre island this summer - starting to clear, put up structures, it's the dream of our lives!!
Where are you from? There are many people creating off grid regenerative farming communities now and the number is growing! My advice, being part of one of those groups, is to build your self a network of like minded individuals who all want the same thing. Owning land is awesome but not necessary with these groups 🌹
A big well done to you guys, such a lot you've achieved in your one year adventure. We are raising a glass to another prosperous year to come for you all 🍷🥂🙏
I'm many miles away of your knowledge, still dream about this. The greebhouse is amazing and it's something I'd need to do when I get my piece of land.
Me and my husband did just this 20 years ago, moved to rural Scotland and renovated a small farm. We now live back in England on a rural smallholding and i do not regret a single second, i would however, like to be totally off grid. You will have an amazing life, i wish you all well 😊
Honestly I am green with envy. I'm a disabled US veteran and all I ever wanted is to build MY house. Some sort of hermit who lives down a winding path. Really somewhere that friends are always welcome. Enough space for my boys and their family to build their own house. Somewhere that my grand children are safe and their imagination can grow wild. A home I can leave in their hands for the next generation. Our land. To plant our trees. You're a lucky man. Good luck!✌️
Bruce A great year it has been ! ive watched you all create a wonderful new life together while sitting on my bum doing nothing ! i think it's time for me to get up and live a bit !
So jealous of your fabulous off grid life....I'm due to retire in few years (66yrs), mortgage will be paid.....I'm stuck where I am but will be as self sufficient as possible for me. I will follow your adventures and wish you and your lovely family a very happy future.....keep going...xxx
Yeah hoo!! What a ride! Life is what you dream it is. So much done so much more to do. Love the community that surrounds you. This is what it is all about Had work and great friends.
Wow! Wow! Wow! Admire your massive skillset, design savvy and creativity! Be massively proud! Most people don’t do all that in a lifetime let alone a year! Love your family, too! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Job well done! I lived in the west of Ireland for 15yrs and for a year now we are renovating a Lithuanian homestead that hasn't been lived in for very long time... Still a start of our journey, but finding inspiration in videos like yours. Thanks to RUclips algorithm - you got a new subscriber here :)
That's amazing. Better than watching a movie or TV series. It reminds me of the Wilderness Family, a cinematic/movie theatre from the 1970s or Little House On The Prairie.
As much as I think it's amazing what you and your family have done in only one year, I feel your statement in the beginning of having very little money was just a tactic to pull in more viewer's, as clearly with all the materials used in this video you can hardly have little money. Basically what I'm saying is I personally prefer honesty. Still an amazing achievement and I wish you and your family so much happiness ❤
Hi it was completely honest. We spent everything on the place and had enough to live on for 6 months. We then had an investment come in which financed the bit you are talking about. That’s why I said at the time having no money. There’s a vid of me building the compost loo reusing old nails and pallets etc
While I liked the video, I enjoyed seeing reclamation in action and your gentle nature mixed with tough challenges is a wonderful combination of what it means to be a real man. God bless you and your family as you reclaim his creation for his glory and your joy!
My brother shared this video with me, and I enjoyed it immensely! It looks like a lot of hard work, but you’ve accomplished so much. I loved seeing the whole family involved. Count me as a new subscriber!💜
It's amazing how much your dream can take you. I enjoy watching the vital moment of your journey. Hopefully, seeing more of your family together. Thank's soooooooo much for sharing. Watching from Florida USA
totally awsome love it... ive been renovating an old cottage for 4 years had no electricity for 2 years !! i have a fab log burner and spent 2 years chopping wood and getting a really bad back untill i stumbled on a you tube video by a chap using tyres arround his chopping block to prevent the split logs landing on the floor its genious has saved me hours and 2 futher years of back pain give it agao..cheers and massive well done ian
i am moving next spring to an abandoned farm. It is not completely off grid, but it is totally overgrown, it is not sure if I will be able to live in a house or only get a camping house or smth small. I am moving with my horses and dogs, it has two fountains and an old bavarian vegetable and fruits garden. I can’t wait to start working on this as my own little paradise home with 24 years and single. Best part about this, I am moving closer to my grandparents and family roots ❤ Thanks for sharing your journey, I am admiring everyonw who can build up their dreams with their own hands
Thanks for taking us along on all your adventures! Work hard - play harder! Nice to see that you are making time for blowing off steam. Nice bike track! 👍🏻
Morning bruce as you no i have been watching you from the beginning and you have done so many improvements i love where you are peace and quite that is most important you have done amazing job your family should be proud of what you have achieved you have come a long way that is what i wanted but what you want and what you get is another matter but where you are is so sweet and it looks the buisness well done keep up the hard work untill next time and keep you and your family safe.

Huge respect for showing the world how we all can actually live the life we meant to live, instead of all the hustle and surviving on 9-5
Thanks 🙏
The 9-5 is what the government wants us to do so we can make THEM money.

It’s definitely a steep learning curve
A standing stone, beautiful children. May all the Gods bless you.
Thank you 🙏
great job! My greeting from Palestine to you and your family. We love Irish people so much.
Thanks very much 🙏 I love the Irish too
could've say you love people from Palestine too @@OffGridBruce
@greentree4001 ....and the Irish love you Palestinian's too, and people from Gaza also, love, hugs and blessings from Ireland
He’s English lol
@@Beepbeepbeepbe Not any more, he left there and made Ireland his home! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This video, watching you literally build your family’s life, in such balance and harmony is simply magnificent to watch, and very inspiring.
Thank you 🙏
What a man can do when he puts his mind to it...incredible!...hail to men all over the world
Couldn’t do it with out the support of the family that’s for sure
So Proud of You all

You have done so well ! I always say , whenever you feel disheartened or overwhelmed by all the work there is to do just stop and look at what you have already done !
That’s great advice. It was great going over all the old vlogs
This is really really wonderful to watch!! We bought a 62 acre island this summer - starting to clear, put up structures, it's the dream of our lives!!
Hello, where are you looking for land for sale?
@@carravagio1976 we aren't...we already bought an island
That sounds awesome!!
@@OffGridBruce we are so excited - sometimes tired 😁
What an amazing effort, Jack of all trades, good on yous
Lots of vision…lots of optimism…lots of planning..lots and lots of hard work and more hard work…lots to be proud of…well done…stay safe

Thank you 🙏
There is nothing I want more than to own a house like this :(
Hope you get your dream

Same its such a stunning and inspiring way of life

What you did very technical and familiar that is The essence of life
Wow what you can with your hands is Amazing
Thanks Anja :)

Thank you. Here’s to another great year
I'm many miles away of your knowledge, still dream about this.
The greebhouse is amazing and it's something I'd need to do when I get my piece of land.
I also enjoy to see all of you sharing a meal around a van. It's so genuine, so unlike anything in my current world.
I wish you the very best of luck with it all

I love hearing about people’s journeys. It’s nice to know I’m hopefully on the right track
Hi Dr Christopher can I ask why you are spamming my subscribers comments?
Honestly I am green with envy. I'm a disabled US veteran and all I ever wanted is to build MY house. Some sort of hermit who lives down a winding path. Really somewhere that friends are always welcome. Enough space for my boys and their family to build their own house. Somewhere that my grand children are safe and their imagination can grow wild.
