I moved 2,200 miles to turn 4 acres of raw desert into a sustainable future. Welcome to the unfiltered journey of building a life from nothing.

Survival relies on redundancy. We are building five core systems to ensure safety, comfort, and autonomy. Here is the current status of the build.
Power
The heart of the homestead. Moving from portable units to a 48V central bank.
Water
Collection, filtration, and storage. Rainwater catchment systems are priority #1.
Shelter
From temporary canvas to permanent timber. A warm, dry place to plan the next move.
Grow
Food independence. Permaculture design to turn the soil into a caloric engine.
Comms
Staying connected to the tribe. Starlink and LoRaWAN backup protocols.
