As politics continue to divide the nation the only rational choice is to move to more rural areas and become as self sustaining as possible.
Can we discuss homesteading tips? How does one achieve this lifestyle with no experience? How much does decent property cost?
Not sure if this helps but I've started collecting encyclopedias for gardening, fishing, etc while trying to put it into practice.

Solar is really good now. If you can invest ~10,000 you could live like any normal person in the city would.
Anybody who has a bit of extra land should offer camping spots to bikers, maybe put up a link to donate to you.
That's a great tip. It has been a decade almost since I last looked into it. What about if it gets damaged? Is it still expensive to replace?
>What about if it gets damaged? Is it still expensive to replace?
Yes but components are a lot more durable than they use to be.

But boy is that house FRICK ugly
No you cant, boilers wont work, stove cant be electric, voltage issues from freezers and refrigirators will frick up your small DC equipment over time.
There is a solution but even here not possible for only 10k usd
Drive west of Nashville about an hour. You will be able to find property on a hill side for less than $1000 an acre. You need about 5 acres for one family for sustainable wood heat and power. Set up a chicken hutch, and grow a garden. You will be working 12 hour days and will need to be able to buy food for the first 2 years, but after that you have your homestead.
Make your first house a shack or a tree fort.
You will want a deck area, as any sort of level ground will feel comfortable compared to hill side.
Don't listen to this anon. We're full and will not tolerate outsiders. Go to Idaho or something.
Actually, yeah, go to the northwest and seek out like-minded folk, such as the Northwest Front (Idaho, Oregon, Washington, West Montana)
Wasn’t Idaho like 97% white less than 10 years ago?
I guess you gotta take what you can get. The Butler Plan is a reasonable solution if more people know about it.
Yes goyim, go to the pacific northwest where you cannot afford the land to create your communities and homesteads!
Idaho was pretty much the primary state for sending all the Muslims since obama.
Ruining the damn state.
Frick you greedy israelite i didnt ask to be born into a city
Honestly anywhere that close to Nashville will be overrun by homosexuals. Better off with northwest TN near the Mississippi or eastern TN in the mountains but not near Gatlinburg.
t. Sumner county anon that thought 40 miles away was safe
what's wrong with Gatlinburg?
I hate the idea of a tourism driven economy and Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are exactly that. Was fun to visit there as a kid but I hate it now.
Thanks anon
Those are some Earnest Goes to Camp type motherfrickers out there. Keep out.
Electric bikes have gotten very good in the past few years.
Sexy. Which one is that?

Bumping for comfiness and practicality
Good thread. Lemme bump it.
I've been trying to get a small rural place for the past couple of months and even managed to tour one in person but a lot of people seem to have the same idea
Even in remote villages, soon as a listing goes up anywhere the landlord is flooded with applications from what i've seen
I'll keep looking though because i literally don't have any other choice either, entering a homeless shelter or anything of the sort would entail a risk of being force-vaxxed in my situation
I'm about to start raising pigs again. I have several neighbors that raise beef.
We will be kings in the barter and trade apocalypse.

Shut up. Homesteading is the only way forward in America now.
Always has been
>As politics become more important than ever, the only rational choice is to run away.
The political right lost and its enemies are calling the shots, in case you haven't noticed. Retreating from the pozzed ZOG hellscape cities and waiting for the system to come crashing down (which it sure as frick will) is the best thing one can do right now

Is there even a good place to homestead in Europe?
Preferably close to the netherlands. No hope for staying here, too expensive and unheard of to homestead. Maybe some remote place in germany
Mommy Russia. Pappa Putin is giving settlers free land in the Far East.
That's way too far.
I want to be able to get somewhere close to civilization with a few hours of driving
You'd be in East Asia. You don't get more civilized areas than that (Japan, Korea, China).
If I'm going that far I might as well move to a remote area in the U.S/Canada
I don't know man, the point is to escape communism. I wouldn't risk it in the EU, Canada or the US.
Is that land even conducive to farming?
I don't know, but I think you would be able to make a layer of fertile soil using permaculture.
Once I get a car Imma accelerate my plan to get some cheap vacant property in the middle of nowhere and homestead. I hate living in the city, used to live in rural/BFE, loved it.
Clean water is number one. You need a well and well pump, storage tank, pressure tank and house pump. Sediment and carbon filters, water softener and UV light to disinfect the water.
UV light for a well? Used well water my whole life, never done this. Not needed unless you have a contaminated aquifer.
You lads talking about chickens yet?
Chickens is the way. Get yourself a few girls to start. You’ll be giving food away before you know it.
The damned things practically care for themselves, but you’ll have trouble keeping away from the cute little b***hes all the same.
The kids play with them. Everyone gets the satisfaction that comes with caring for them. Then you get more eggs than you know what to do with.
Couldn’t ask for much more.
But you can. Put a rooster in the mix and you get unlimited meat as well. Damn fine set up.
Rabbits are also a must-have too from what i've read
Throw in a goat or two for that delish milk and whatnot and you're pm set
>You lads talking about chickens yet
When I had free range chickens, I had almost no bugs around my house including ants. They are also like little weed eaters so less yard work to do.
Keep in mind cleaning chicken shit is a disgusting and dirty pain in the ass, especially in the summer months, AND you absolutely should wear a mask for it. You should rotate their yard regularly as well so they don't completely wipe out the vegetation.
A properly designed coop makes it super easy to clean.
15 min to shovel some great fertilizer out of a coop into a compost pile. It doesn't even smell as bad as your pussy does.
>15 min to shovel
Try an hour, plus another 10 to add a fresh layer of straw. This is shovelling into a front end loader so if wheelbarrowing add another 10-15. My boss has 28 chickens and makes me clean the coop.
Please translate. What's this Hugelkultur?
putting material like logs, sticks, other natural waste in a non-composted form in a garden bed, itt will break down over time and basically be drip feeding nutrients into the soil which are fuel for whatever you are planting in the garden
Thanks memegay.
no problem
good luck on your garden gypsy, but be warned hugelkulture is a long term strategy. if you're just squatting on somebody's property it wont be worth your time
...what are those circles...
israelite corpses
Logs
logs.
I like that house but frick the 'homestead' put on aesthetic. Wagon wheels aren't found lying about anymore.
Last one
My wife and I are doing this. We see the writing on the wall. We have land in the woods with a nice modest house. Currently gardening as we build. Next step is chickens. Biggest thing we need is solar panels. Once we have those we are completely off grid except internet. I highly recommend this lifestyle. I work from home so it works out very well.
>Build homestead
>Have nuclear white family
>Be able to tell everyone to frick off
It's great.
>Once we have those we are completely off grid except internet
Starlink is going to be great for this. No need to get israeliteed by the internet providers.
starlink is a power hog so you better have a great solar and battery setup
Learn how to raise chickens. The initial setup is really cheap, as are the birds. With a dozen laying hens you will have an excess of protein for at least two years, if you keep them laying during the winter. After that you can slaughter them for meat, and start a new flock.
Let them free range. They'll basically find their own food most of the time, and are great for tick control. They produce a pretty good fertilizer, too.
If you run away, you will lose. Study what happened in Russia. Many ran to the hills to hide.
It's not retreat, we're just advancing in another direction.
This is 2020s north America you fricking moron. It's a bit different than Russia in the 1900s. We're not uneducated and unarmed peasants.
Based. Nods is the new hottness. I love seeing these trends grow.
Start small with gardens and chickens. You also don't need large amounts of acres to have a homestead, and if you do end up with large amounts of land that are considered "agricultural" by the government, you will be fined massively if you don't use it for structures or crops.
>and if you do end up with large amounts of land that are considered "agricultural" by the government, you will be fined massively if you don't use it for structures or crops.
This is solved by renting the field to a local hay farmer. Your dairy cow is fed for free or extremely cheap & you don't haveto buy/maintain haying equipment. Agricultural land also comes with cheaper taxes.
5 acres of wooded land - 15k
Action building - financed
Improvements to the action building and tools - 5k max
Raised beds made from aluminum roof flashing and tree limb stakes (enough to feed at least 2). - .5k
Coop for 5 laying hens and the equipment to start them. - .5k
Boom, you are mostly out of the debt cycle and now may actually attract a trad wife all for just 22k. You should take part time work to improve your conditions/savings and pay for your truck ect. Take a security guard job and you can spend the majority of your work time learning how to build your future cabin, pole barns, land improvments, ect.
lol but can you stream Netflix @ 4k?
is your bathroom flooring heated?
ya. didn't think so, buddy.
here's a video on it that i saw yesterday
