So proud of my young brothers and sisters getting off grid. I live in Tanzania Africa and I am planning to build soon. Something very small. Trying to get ideas. This is great!
@@diasporaconnecttanzania3521 that is amazing!! Thank you!! 💜🌸
HEY GOT A FEW SUGGESTION FOR YOU. 1) PURCHASE DIFFERENT SIZE TARPS AND CABINERS (the hooks that rock climbers use or folks put keys on with the springs).GET A FEW OF THEM TAKE LARGE TARP AND CONNECT ATLEAST 4-6 TO TARP AFFIX TO TOP OF CAMPER THEN STRETCH OUT AND CONNECT OTHER ENDS TO STURDY POSTS (or get big 4*6 fence post and use quikcrete, placing post in ground) WITH A CABINER THIS WILL GIVE YOU A SHADE AREA TO GET OUT OF BAKING SUN. SETUP A FAMILY AREA WITH LAWN CHAIRS. PUT SOME GRAVEL DOWN ON THE SIDE OF RV YOU ALL COME OUT OF AS A LADDING PAD. BUILD SMALL FIRE PIT AS WELL MAKING SURE TARP IS HIGH UP NOT CATCH FIRE (might need a center pole). 2) GET SEVERAL CONCRETE BLOCKS AND FENCE POST CAN BUILD OUTSIDE CHAIRS, BENCHES, AND FENCE OFF A NICE LITTLE PATIO AREA. 3) GET A SOLAR PANEL NEW OR USED (that works) AND HOOK UP ON TOP OF RV AND FRONT WINSHIELD IN A SUNNY AREAT THAT WILL SAVE YOU GENERATOR POWER TO USE ON SMALL ITEMS (like charging phones, some small lights inside or out). 4) GET YOU SOME BLOCKS OF DRY ICE AND USE TO KEEP FOOD COLD OR FROZEN IN A COOLER (do not touch with barehands nor let kids play with it) BUT IT WILL KEEP YOU FOOD COLDER IN THAT HOT SUN, ONLY A FEW DOLLARS FOR A BIG CHUNK. 5) SETUP SOME GUTTERS ON RV AND ANGLE THEM DOWN TO BACK OF RV AND THEN AND PLACE A POLE OR CHAING FOR WATER TO FLOW DOWN INTO A BARREL FOR COLLECTION OF WATER. USE THIS WATER TO WATER PLANTS, DRINKING WATER FOR DOGS, WASH WINDOWS ON RV (not human consumption). 6) GET YOU THE RV/CAMPER 'STAR LINK OR HOTSPOT' THIS WAY YOU WILL HAVE INTERNET ACCESS NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO. ALSO GET A HD ANTENNA FOR TV (you can pick up a ton of HD stations using antennas for watching tv)....JUST A FEW IDEAS THAT YOU CAN DUE WITH MINIMAL MONEY SPENT THAT WILL ENHANCE YOUR SPACE FOR NOW. ANY OUTDOOR SHADE SPOTS THAT YOU CAN CREATE WILL BE BENEFICIAL TO YOU AND FAMILY. NO ONE IS GONNA WANNA BE COOPED UP INSIDE TRAILER ALL DAY IN THAT HEAT....GOD BLESS FAMILY YOU GOT THIS!
@@kenmerritt4120 thank you!! These are some great suggestions.

I'm so proud of u guys me and my wife been following u guys videos and fell inlove with your family, I'm just getting off working 3rd shift and this video has us all smiles over here keep building your dreams and showing your kids how to build there dreams, we love you guys from your biggest fans The Browns
@@TheDjstart75 awww thank you! This comment means a lot.
Getting out of the city probably will. I the best thing you did for your family . The whole world is so crazy best of luck
So happy for you guys! I will be following because this is a dream of mine!
@@angelasbusybeesgardenandho4627 welcome to the family!! I hope we can inspire you to make it your reality 💜🌸
What a journey to have before you all. Might be a idea to take some of those pallets and place them along the side of the RV right outside the door so when it rains you still have a spot that is not in the mud and less likely to track dirt inside the RV each time when you are just going outside for a second . Just as a temporary off of the ground platform. You can also place the grill on one off of to the side. And then place an outdoor rug down so you have a bit of a patio so to speak. Just a thought, hope it all works out. I think the best thing that came with the Property is the Craftsman riding mower, those are easy to maintain and can do everything from cut grass to tow a small dump cart. Your whole family looks just lovely. Best of luck from a Texas fan.
@@snotbubbles3276 thank you!! We placed a pallet by the door. But, you’re giving me an idea of maybe adding more pallets. I keep saying that I need a rug as well. 💜
THATS WHATSUP!!!! I don't even know yall. I'm proud of you guys. I have been telling my GF we can do this too. You got a new follower fo shoo.
@@ChasinTheLife Ain’t nothing to it but to do it!! Welcome to the family!! 💜
I don’t blame you you are very smart to take on this new adventure and life. I hope you will be safe and happy! It may definitely be a better life for you and your family! My husband and I thought about doing the same thing. Get a peaceful place, a nice little garden hopefully some goats for milk and chickens too. Good Luck and God Bless You All!❤
Thank you!! You guys should definitely do it! 💜🌸
Thank you for sharing your new lives
You have a beautiful family
Blessings to you all
Congrats on y’all move and new chapter in yall life. Thanks for sharing😊
Thank you!! 😊
that rv is a beast
@@brendanmitchell3545 yes it is! It never ceases to amaze me!
I will following your channel. The one thing that caught my attention. Is when you quoted. When there is no vision the people perish.
@@iamsharoslyn welcome to the channel. Thank you for following along. While building vision is so important. I’m glad it caught your attention. 💜
Good morning from rural Texas. I would love very much to send some seeds for your garden, if you’re approval. They are seed I have used in my garden(squash, zucchini, watermelon, etc) I went overboard purchasing seeds😂.
@@iamsharoslyn omg I would love that! If you could send me a email to the email in the description box. I can send you our P.O. Box when we get one.
You are more than welcome 🙏
Them old 454 motors are a BEAST

that little girl is smart
@@iliveindetroit1 thank you!
During the rainy season purchase some rain barrels so you can purify the water easily and you’ll always have water.
This was us years ago now that the kids are grown and have their own lives it is time for us to get back to it. Stayed on our property for 7 years with 8 kids and it was amazing
@@tranquilhabitat A lot of people tell me that it’s the best way to raise kids. 💜
Congrats.. keep building and making memories 💪🏾💪🏾
@@miltonbrown7275 thank you! 💜
To answer your question about the tree being dead at the bottom and alive on top:
Certain invasive species of plants actually suffocate trees. They do this by growing up and around the tree starting from the bottom and working its way to eventually covering the whole tree until the tree no longer receives sunlight and it dies.
Typically you’ll see what looks like veins on the tree but it’s in fact an invasive plant.
@@welcometonovas1318 oh wow… now I have to do some research to see how to save the trees.
@@welcometonovas1318 thank you so much!! 💜
Just came across your video!
My wife and I are retired and watch a lot of younger folks' homesteading videos.
Looking forward to watching y'all grow!
We love IAG farms videos about their homestead in Mississippi. They've come so far!
Ya'll sure have a tough job ahead, but with Grit, determination, and faith in God and family, Ya'll will be successful.
There's a large network of Okie homesteaders around Ya'll. Be sure to tap that resource for advice!
@@rbledsoe61 thank you so much!! I’ll have to look into finding the other homesteaders.
You are living my dream. This is how I grew up. You should plant as many fruit trees as you can. Apricots fresh off the tree are a delight,unlike any canned ones
@@peggyfisher-qi4wg I wish I would’ve grew up this way! We definitely plan on planting some fruit trees. 💜🌸

@@dbuffaleausouldieress5378 thank you!! And yes, we will make sure. 💜
Yay yay 💪 bct 💜 you guys! BlaxkchiefTribe!
Chickens and ducks will nearly eliminate the ticks and most other bugs. All poop is potential fertilizer and chickens will spread the poop for you.
@@kathybond4202 omg thank you!! I was wondering if chickens or ducks could do that. Now I have to look into plans for a coop.
Oh wow you guys!!! We did what your doing almost 4 years ago. Its an adventure!! My advice is know that every project is gonna take longer than you think it will but stay the course it is so worth it!
@@HewettHomestead thank you for the wisdom and kind words! We will definitely be checking out your channel!
Make sure u guys put up a cattle fence b4 u plant ur garden, because the deer and all the other animals will certainly eat all your crops, get rid of the ticks because they can be just as bad as lime disease, they come from the deer, mice and raccoons, so the fence will began to protect u and ur family after, cleaning your area lowers your chances of getting the ticks and the animals that carry them, ticks do not like sunny, manicured lawns, so mow your property, often, cause ticks do climb, immediately rake and remove leaves, prune your bushes, put down some gravel/ stones or spread 2-3 feet of mulch/ wood chips, tick yard spray, get the gold standard chemical for tick control, the natural spray is called wondercide, its plant base, so much safer for children and animals. Remember, cattle fence, eliminating the wild animals that supply the ticks, then keep in the area mowed and free of debris, you guys are beautiful and the children are adorable , hope this info helps.
@@alphamed161 thank you so much for this information.

I think I saw you guys. We're you in Mesa, Arizona @ Walmart? I parked next to an RV that looked like yours and saw two little ones looking out the front window. Then the next day I saw the RV turning on baseline and I could see Dad and Mom in the front seat.
@@rosielee6390 awww it would have been cool. But we’re in Oklahoma 💜
You should park your r v in the shade
Man I love this! How many acres do you guys have? We’re looking for an RV just like yours!

Can you put up what you use for the ticks
@@islandvibesgardening4419 I will definitely do that.
Hello, just happened to stumble on your video wanted to know why are there so many dead trees on that land?
@@kathypaul6652 hi, I don’t know if you are referring to the ones like the one I mentioned in the video. Those I have no idea what happened. But if you see the trees that are brown at the bottom but green at the top. We had a fire a while back. The trees are actually producing more leaves and little acorns. There are also trees that we cut down and haven’t finished cutting up yet.
Where can you find land to park those and not get harassed
@@breakdownbill1 umm I’m not sure. I’m sure every place is different. The Lord led us here and it’s still under developed so there aren’t a lot of people here.
Shalawam, This is the life I am working towards, what state are y'all in it's been hard to find places that allow you to live in an Rv legally on 😐
@@Himnotman hey, we live in Oklahoma. You definitely have to do your research. I know here in Oklahoma, there are people buying a lot of acreage and then separating it to sell. Which makes it a little bit easier. But then there are those areas that have HOAs. So it just takes research.
@youngflourishing4632 thank you, we have been looking for a small piece of land we can live in our Rv on to full time Rv...
@@Himnotman I would look on landwatch and search the area you are interested in.
FIRST AND FORE MOST SAFETY FIRST...EVERYONE NEEDS TO HAVE ON SEATBELTS...LOVE HOW U LED A QUICK PRAYER IM JESUS NAME. THE KIDS ARE EXCITED LOVE IT...BUT IT WILL BE NO FUN FOR ANYONE IF NO SEATBELTS ARE LOCKED IT. PRINT UP OR GIVEM THEM PEN AND PAPER TO COUNT LICENSE PLATES FROM OTHER STATES. OR COUNT HOW MANY CARS IN A GIVEN PERIOD THEN GIVE A TREAT TO WINNER. OR COUNT HOW MANY RV'S OR CAMPERS THEY SEE AND GIVE TREA AT EVERY GAS STOP. JUST DO THINGS THAT KEEP THEM ENGAGE IN TRIP MAKES THEM FEEL AAPART OF FAMILY ADVENTURE OTHER THAN SLEEPING WHOLE TRIP. GOD BLESS TO YOU AND FAMILY...HE IS JEHOVAH!
@@kenmerritt4120 that sounds fun! We normally play an alphabet game.
How do you find the rught sive piece of land?
@@sherrybrown368 hey, this is a great question. I don’t believe there is a once size fits all approach. But, we considered what our goal was for our property. We also thought about what we could maintain and price range.
congrats! what state
@@jessicaroberts8180 thank you! We’re in Oklahoma.
Diatomaceous Earth will rid ticks
@@exoticbeautyblisssimpson8430 I forgot about diatomaceous earth. Thank you!!
It will work.
Keep grass cut low, trash away from places where grass will grow in, and long pants and boots on. This year in the south we have an abundance of ticks, fleas, and mosquitoes.

@@Streetsouvenir Oklahoma
@@youngflourishing4632 appreciate it I’m on the same path I’m out here in cali-
@@Streetsouvenir what are the properties like out that way?
@@youngflourishing4632 out of my price reach they’re very expensive in California. There are parts of California that aren’t so expensive like northern California touching the Arizona side, but then you might as well just live in Arizona for half the price I’m coming up with the problem of either freezing to death or being somewhere where there’s no waterand burning alive on this side of the coast
