You want to know what it’s like to be living off the land? Maybe you are just looking into how you can be more self-sufficient and not so dependent on the local markets and retailers for your everyday essentials.

Minimalism has a place too, since you want to focus more on actual needs vs. wants. Sometimes we have a tendency to collect, save or invest in things we don’t actually need or even use, but for some reason we have a small attachment to them anyway. A little bit of clean air, better and cleaner food, slightly more independence, and a much clearer picture of how your everyday needs are being handled can make life tedious at times but also much more enjoyable in the long run.

Here are some things that you may want to consider as you are “moving off the grid”… while also realizing that none of us are truly off the grid anymore, no matter how much we want to be. Nonetheless, these are trying times and we are moving into an even tougher stretch ahead as we shift into government changes here and the current worldwide pandemic still has everyone in a frenzy.
