We are Jim and Jessica, a husband and wife team who made the leap from city life to an off-grid homestead in Southern Arizona. We've started this lifestyle equipped only with two Permaculture Design Certificates and a whole lot of determination.

We’d like to share our journey of starting a sustainable homestead from scratch with all its ups, downs, and lessons learned. Watch us take on the challenge of modern homesteading, off-grid life, and turning this barren piece of land into a desert oasis.

    Hey guys, maybe after the next rains, you can get a cistern update! How much is in there? Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
  • The Good bad and ugly of this storm ... I am most impressed with how both of you are coping with all of these things that need fixing and my heart goes out to both of you, You definitely have the homesteading spirit .. I believe in both of you and your strength and knowledge to pull you through this mess ( there has to be something that can make the cob water proof) Both of you are in my prayers, *A little research the lime plaster is or was a good choice you just needed a waterproof layer too like beeswax, that's the most natural solution ... I am heart broken to see something like this happen to you !

    Everything is a learning process. So glad the damage wasn't any worse. Also really good to see new posts from you guys. 👍👍👍
  • As a brother in challenging homesteading, I love your pernacity, determination and optimism. Dont give up. There's a solution to everything And the biggest challenge of homesteading is figuring it out as you go. You guys are tough and set examples for the rest of us while keeping it real. Love you guys.
  • I’m sorry you had the damage to the dome and that valve house collapsing, hopefully it won’t be a big of a job like you’re expecting. Keep all the good work both on the build and with your animals.
  • I wish for you two the very best ! You are so kind and sweet ! God Bless you and your doggies !
  • @DesertNails
    Those sky views are gorgeous including the rainy ones.
  • @jimoray3
    Sure do enjoy your work. It’s phenomenal and inspiring. I just love watching and wishing I could do.

    If you fly over Devon in the UK it looks greener than surrounding areas due to all the rain the County has. Houses made from Cob are common, and all have a hard roof that fully covers the walls and overhangs enough for drips not to a problem. Some of our houses are over 100 years old. Having a bell bottom on it doesn't help as it slows the decent.
  • Glad you got rain~but sorry for the damage Hope y'all have a good day 🤗👍❤
  • Good time to mark low spots..... N divert flow ... 1.5 in rain WOW
