Y'all who have big dreams know how much work, sweat, research, money, and support along with how many complete fails and experiments that went sideways to get to that magical place.
The homesteader's motto has got to be "keep keeping on." But, what if your whole homestead situation catches on fire? Fire! Huge flames. Plumes of smoke. And gone.
Now there's a huge reboot button in front of you. There's paper on the drawing board and it's blank. You're devastated. You've gotta rebuild. Restart.
The good news which doesn't seem that good at the moment is that you've got some experience under your belt. But, ya need cash. And we all know how much any decent sized project costs on a homestead...hint it ain't $100.
Vic is doing some awesome work in the Australian bush. Literally from scrap and debris. Using the discards from a wasteful society to build up, shape buildings. Moulding and forming a homestead on a scrap of Mother Earth that very much needs some holistic tending. As some of you may know @11strings burned this week. Burned. Fire. It's sad and terrible.
Rebuild she must. If you feel so moved clicky-click the link in my bio to send some cash and love.
This drawing of our place and the dreams the owner/builder made 3D. Many dreams start this way, just a piece of paper and pen. Let's get some cash [link in bio] to @11strings so that she can get to work of making the homestead whole again and helping heal Mother Earth.
