Owning LAND // How we MAINTAIN 5 Acres of Land – Ep. 16

We’re back up at our land. The purpose of this trip is so we can be at our property as the foundation to our A-Frame Cabin is being built and hopefully poured. However, we have a little bit of extra time when we arrive up at the land so we get to work on some of the chores we do during each visit to the land that make our stays much more comfy, and the chores that just keep our land in working order. Follow along as Sara maintains our composting outhouse. People are always asking us about it so we always enjoy going over the ins and out of how our composting toilet system works. Then, Sara shows how we are supplied with our drinking water during each of our stays at the land. Lastly, Ryan gets to work on his favorite part of having our property – chainsawing downed trees. We recently had a LOT of trees taken down around our cabin build site so Ryan had a LOT of cleaning up to do. Check out the tools he uses to make this chore a little easier. And now a little back story on us, in case you just found us on YouTube. We’re Sara and Ryan. We are your average suburban family, but 8 years ago, we purchased a raw piece of land in the Hood Canal in Washington. We’ve been developing this piece of property slowly, and this year we knew it was time to go all in. So we purchased a log cabin kit home and decided that 2020 would be the year we built a house on our property. We plan to build this cabin (as much as we can) on our own. Unfortunately, COVID-19 put a delay on our cabin kit being produced and delivered in the time frame we had originally planned. While we could have just waited it out and pushed back starting on the build of our home, we decided to shift gears and change our course for the time being. We purchased a 30 foot yurt, and will be setting it up as additional living space when we begin to build our cabin. Follow along with us as we build our dream in the Hood Canal.
