Living Off Grid - 50 Steps to Unplug, Become Self-Sufficient, and Build the Homestead of Your Dreams

Ryan Mitchell never thought he would go off the grid. Yet this self-described desk-jockey with no carpentry skills today lives on 11 acres in a house he designed and powers with solar, gets his water from a well, has a composting toilet and septic system, eats from his garden, raises baby quail, and runs his own business. His bills are a fraction of what they were when he paid rent and utilities, and he has infinitely more free time to pursue the things he loves.

If you've ever dreamed of this lifestyle, Living Off Grid will help you navigate the most important decisions you'll need to make to create the reality that's right for you. Whether you're an urbanite who just wants to save some money (and carbon) with small solar arrays or you're ready to purchase land or you've already taken the plunge and want a better way to deal with your wastewater, Ryan has done the hard work to set you up for success.
