Day 2: Our first full day was....well, full. We moved another trailer and truck load of stuff, finished prepping, priming and painting the mural wall in the dining area, and moved into the living room. We are trying a new color on one wall in the living room and we think we like it. We're going to finish painting the color around the window but leave the window trim the same off-white color as the rest of the walls. We also painted half of one of the walls in the master bedroom to see if we like it in the daylight. Let us know what y'all think. I also am looking for recommendation on what to use and/or how to treat the wood so we can get a deep, rich, uniform color. Some spots have experienced fading over time and some have a little water staining. We appreciate your feedback. At this point our plan is to make this homestead completely off grid. After we get moved in I will be contacting solar companies to get ideas on the size of the system we will need to make this a reality and find out costs associated with doing so. I'm budgeting around $15,000 and that will be with me doing a fair amount of the work myself. I'll go into more detail on this in a future video.

I'm showing you the plans for our new tiny house community in this video. I'm also asking for your input on a future tiny house community geared toward preppers and/or homesteaders. Let me know what you think in the comments. Before you say that the pricing is too expensive for these units, please understand that we are a non-profit so we are doing it an inexpensively as possible. Unfortunately, we are finding that due to city and county regulations there is a lot of cost that has to be added into each home. It effectively doubles the cost of each unit. With that said, this will give low income people an opportunity to own their own home for less than $400/month. Sadly, there isn't anything else that comes close to that in our area which is why so many low income/working poor are homeless.
