Off Grid Winter Life in Australia

Описание: Frost settles deep in the valley and life slows to a whisper. In this episode, we take you through a week on our off-grid homestead in Australia. It’s a quiet time of year—but full of digging, planting, mending, and learning.

We mulch the garden to protect it from the frost, plant red shallots and turmeric, and begin building a new shed. A second-hand greenhouse and an old water tank find new life. The chickens lay a handful of eggs, the strawberries bloom against the odds, and the creek runs again after two long, dry years.

We share the realities of off-grid life—like the daily ritual of restarting our water pump—and the small lessons we’ve learned through trial and error. This video blends practical tips on winter gardening, shed building, and composting with moments of stillness and reflection.

If you’re walking this path too, or just dreaming of it, we hope our story helps guide you—or at least keeps you company.
