Maybe you're like us and want a peaceful life of freedom and independence in the country.

When we lived in the city that is exactly what we dreamed of. In the city were dependent on someone else to provide us with everything we needed, like electricity, water, and food. We knew that if any one of those systems failed we would be stuck and need someone to rescue us.

So, we packed up our family and moved to a 7-acre piece of raw land in North Idaho.

We’re just regular middle-class folks with very little practical experience in building, gardening, or raising animals. But, we were willing to give it a shot and couldn’t be happier with our decision.

If inexperienced people like us can become debt-free and find a peaceful life of freedom and independence in the country, so can you. We’ll show you how by sharing the skills and tips needed to make the move through our inspirational videos.
