Black Rock bought the building my company is in, paying twice appraisal value, and is going to tear it down and build a giant Amazon Distribution Center. These people are ruthless, Godless, evil in the way they operate.
Blackrock is doing that everywhere. Homes, industrial and land. Driving prices up to oblivion. How are they able to do this? Easy. They use your money and leverage the hell out of it and 2nd they print they’re own $$. Easy to do since money is fiat. An entry in a ledger.
@@cropduster8798 Imagine having a printing press to counterfit money. Use it to buy physical assets - from printing coupons from thin air. The Fed would have done this if it was legal. But if the Fed could hire a company to do it for them then that would be way to do it - enter BlackRock.
I bought 9 acres (of mostly steep bushland) here in the South of Australia last year- it's been 4 months full time off grid so far, still working on a shower and running water. I wouldn't want too much land, as land rates/taxes are going to ramp up hard and if you're sitting on 100+ acres you could be paying tens of thousands for your rates each year. I got out of my mortgage with good timing as there have been pretty hardcore interest rate rises here, 11 of them in total. My sister's mortgage repayments are over $1000 AUD PER WEEK. It's bloody hard going transforming a vacant block of land in the middle of nowhere to a livable space by yourself and unfortunately there's very little community where I live. My boss on the organic farm I work at is a good bloke but he's not aware of the bigger picture with what's going on in the world. I have one permanent neighbor in the bush near me, across a gully, in hundreds of acres of bushland - quad jabbed and I'd say he weighs over 120kg, so tbh I don't think I'll have any neighbors soon. The only awake beings around here seems to be the wildlife and they're not the best conversationalists! In any case, it's a cool journey and I have my lovable Border Collie with me.
Lol good on y’a mate. Surprised you have internet access to watch this. If I go walk on my 30 acres I don’t get cell service anywhere. I have to be in my house connected to wifi
@@clarke6436 It can be good to have some people around in places like this, if you should need help. In Spring there are savage winds and high rainfall so there are trees falling down all over the place. I don't leave my property without a chainsaw, EVER. In summer there's bushfires and deadly snakes to be aware of. Thankfully I'm allowed to take my dog to work with me if need be. Tiger snakes are quite common out here.

Wow! What a breath of fresh air! Stumbled on your channel today somehow, and man are you spot on! Love what you’re doing, everything you said is 💯. We saw the writing on the wall and moved out of our city bungalow in summer 2021, found 5 acres in the woods, started raised boxes, fruit trees, raspberries and elderberry, we’re in Michigan so zone 5b-6a, I’m on my 2nd season of garlic now after the first try did amazing. Time to become independent, every little thing helps, learn and keep trying!
It's amazing that those of us who considered ourselves moderate centrists politically just a few years ago now find ourselves being labeled as far-right, simply because the 'progressives' (authoritarians) yanked the Overton window so far to the left so quickly. Been enjoying enjoying the journey in the soil with you from afar since 2015. Much love, and stay the path!
Absolutely. I was what you'd call "culturally liberal" for most of my life. I've even been to drag shows back when I was in Montreal. Then when men wanting to live out their fantasies started demanding our children attention, I said, no way in hell.
@@offgridcurtisstone my ex husband decided he's a woman , doing the trans thing, however he thinks it's sick to try n sell it to kids,he agrees it grooming.he doesn't want to talk to kids about his transition but adults who care , that's healthy needed to be approved by children is mentally ill

We had a covid buyer wave in Bulgaria, it was about the least coronatarian and by far the least jabbed in the EU . I sold a few properties and the main reason was to get out of Germany, Austria, UK tyranny. There is a good opportunity here as well, we haven't had a proper Govt for 3 years and guess what its actually functioning just fine.We have regional and local supply chains and really a national homestead mentality.
Given the close alignment with Russia it could go bad, real bad quick. Tarrifs, western policies, and well known corruption in Bulgaria is all dangerous....Regardless of your political affiliation/beliefs, unstable political systems can destroy your life quickly. Would never buy in a country known for corruption and political instability.
I’ve cut out all my friends that don’t see what’s going on. I only make time for like minded people. Also I only spend time with hard working people that have my back and I have there’s as well. That’s it!!!!
I hope you didn’t separate from once in a lifetime connections. The beautiful thing about the world is that we are all different. Variety is the spice of life as they say. How boring would it be if everyone agreed
We bought last year in New Brunswick. 25acres, moved from BC. Even after doing that with the price of everything going up everything is still so tight. Glad we abandoned our 1/2 a million dollar mortgage. Chickens established, pigs and garden next.
I’m glad you are helping out the minority of Klaus’ story. Remember, it describes how the main character, a young (completely ignorant) man states how great everything is in the (15 minute) city. He can rent anything he needs (including his underwear) at any time and it’s delivered to him. He knows that every step he makes is monitored and he hopes it won’t ever be used again him (a basic fallacy of course). His main concern (which is really uplifting, because apparently he has not been completely assimilated yet) are the people “left behind” in the country side. He pities them and wonders how they will fend for themselves without “society”.
Our founding fathers warned us of this very thing: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." - Ben Franklin
Felt the same way in 1976 Curtis. This is when I started my prepper journey. Have not lived in a city since. Really enjoy your channel. Have been following you for years.
If U lived on ur rural property (away from the city) since 1976 u r probably so poor u cud not afford to buy a can of beans. There are only subsistence wages in outback Kcanadistan.
In addition, I sent this 15 minute city video to my sister-in-law who lives in another small town not far from Kentville … she refused to watch it. An ostrich with her head in the sand!
Hope you’re well Curtis. It’s been a year or so since i seen your channel, but during the live streams, you earned my respect. You’re one of the good guys
my 27 year old son has lost his mind. I tried to help him get out of the city. He thinks I'm crazy. I moved to the bush with my mom and my youngest boy. Been prepping for a while now. I needed both my sons here. My oldest was diagnosed with ptsd and sever adhd. my heart hurts.....
All you can do is your best. And pray for him. I’m sure there are other mothers who want to do what you’re doing and maybe already are. Create a sort of community.
What caused his PTSD if you don't mind my asking. I am a single dad with a 16yo son who has some emotional issues. Partly due to my mistakes and failures as a father & part due to his mother's behavior and abandonment along with many other mitigating circumstances including his own poor choices. Definitely kind of struggling here.
I know what you are going through my family members think I am crazy with conspiracy theories, but are coming true , you have to let them go, so you can survive what's coming.
Is there family generational karma? Maybe it's your job to heal it by finding the benefit to what you have learned. Karma does not correct until everyone has found this discovery.
Maybe he didn’t lose his mind. I obviously have no idea. But I’d rather live in areas that brought me joy and novelty experiences. None of us are here forever. I’d rather have a shorter life lived with as many possibilities as I can rather than in fear and cut off from what makes me happy. Wether that is in the city or in the country, that’s up for each of us to decide
to live in the rural means you don't rely on others(government) to make your life better but improve it with your own means...if you feel that way then you should do fine as long as you have some skills or the desire to build them.
No you will still rely on others including governments. Do you think all that high tech gear Curtis has like dc/ac inverters based on computer chips and power Mosfets, MPPT controllers, lithium batteries, Tesla cars etc can be manufactured and maintained by mom and pop rural businesses?
I'm an an Alaska born Alaskan and have lived hundreds of miles from the metropolitan area and could be't be dragged in chains to the city. We are 250 to 300+ miles from any metropolitan areas off a farm market route heading nowhere into Southern BC cause health drove me to the lower 48. I can almost hit the Canadian border with a rock. 360 degree pan no sign of mankind. Very insulated from the birds and still vigilant 24/7. Humanity is lost. Dandahermit.
Curtis, like you I do much research on everything before moving forward mitigating risk, checking the boxes on non/negotiables etc. We have successfully completed Phase 1 of our building on our mountain property fully selected with all intent on very much the same criteria you have employed (move in date June 1). I consider myself pretty informed and prepared (ex search and rescue and now prepper for over 12 years). The one thing my brain just can't fathom is this thing termed "Wokeness" and the insane way the sheeple are following what I consider inconceivable ideals that to me seem literal blind insanity. I just can't convey with my vocabulary how nuts this is. A lot of my friends and family see it but few act. I have ZERO understanding on how the human brain would think and follow this movement. Thank you for your candid comments and point of view. It makes me feel less alone!
@@mediocrestu8238 I'm not sure anyone in this thread has mentioned fear. Speaking for myself there is no phobia of any kind but a willingness to live in a way that is healthier and more sustainable than relying on the city and government to be spoon fed, it's not for pussies that don't like to work to achieve something or can't handle thinking for themselves. Regardless of the worlds goings on I would be heading in the same direction. As for not defining anything, I think Woke-ism (if thats even a word) is pretty clear to many. I heard the perfect explanation the other day. "Woke person says to normal thinking person "What is Woke", Normal thinking guy says"What is a woman". The silence thereafter should explain everything.
Capitalism is insanity and yet you follow, dream and live by it's rule. Religions are insanity and yet many follow, dream and live by it's rule. These ideologies killed billions. Most of you are deep in ideology. So deep that you think it's normal. Then you reeee like toddlers when an extreme individualist liberal ideology rise. The irony...
I've been noticing that many properties have been sitting on the market and people either switch realty companies or the realtors will remove the listing and then put it back on the market after a few days, weeks, or even months. It is important to know this when putting in an offer because many properties are double or even triple the tax collector's assessed market value and knowing how long a property has been on the market can help lower the sale price.
One way to verify is to call the municipality and ask what their tax rate is for the property you are looking at. I’ve done that and they were quite helpful.
@@bigshu5520 GIS is easier because it gives quick results of who owns the land and how to contact them, value, taxes, size, etc. Most county tax / revenue collector's offices have GIS online. No need to call, which saves time. Zoning and other concerns is not as easy to research, but some counties are slowly putting that online as well.
Curtis, I love your channel from back when you started out - you inspired me along with the Myselfreliance channel. I left Canada in 1991, left metro Detroit in 2018. I have 280acres, rivers springs near Lake Superior I'm selling 40 acres and will include 1/2 mile gravel road over 1,000 of river frontage aquifer is 15ft down. Great land $189,900. Keep up the message my brother...
I wouldn't make decisions out of fear. That's one of the tactics that got us into this mess in the first place. Not everyone has the money to go off grid like Curtis has. And that's ok, we can all prepare as best as we can and that's enough. Humanities best days are ahead of us, trust me on this. There will be tough times ahead and it wont be easy for the normies/sleepers to fully grasp the evil and corruption that exists on this planet. It'll be up to us to help them when they're ready. The world and the people in it are good despite what the lying/propagandist media tell you. I'm sure you all know this to be true. When this time comes we need to come together and help each other. I've seen first hand the love and generosity of real Canadians during the trucker convoy. It was beautiful to see and be a part of that. Trust me when I tell you were not headed into a Mad Max type of scenario where we all need g,u.n,s to protect ourselves/family and our food. We may have some discomfort/chaos for a week or 2 as the inevitable collapse of the dollar which will be replaced by a gold back quantum digital system. We'll also have disturbing truth's revealed (crimes against humanity) and real justice for all those involved. Don't give into the fear. Do what you can do for yourself, family, friends and neighbors and the rest God, Source, The Universe, The Creator will provide the rest. Were all fractals of this creator experiencing lifetime after lifetime's in an infinite number of ways in a mortal form. This is all done through our higher self which is immortal, our soul being. Don't give away your power through fear, were more powerful then that and these people know this which is why they're literally fighting for there lives now even though they know its over. The house of cards is starting to unravel. "Nothing can stop what's coming, NOTHING".
Yes, sometimes it's best to be on familiar ground and I wouldn't advise moving out to the wilderness out of fear, because it will follow you. And if you don't have sufficient funds, it's going to be really brutal, especially in areas with cold winters. Work on the fear within and a solution will come to you.
Yes with more people awakened to truth that we are powerful Spiritual beings of Creation, gifted from God 💞🙏💫allows them to fear us!!! Wherever energy goes, energy flows... Includes good & bad thoughts, emotions & our energetic words we speak* We must wear the armor of God, as in trust, belief, in knowing that we all have benevolent beings watching over us, giving us loving protection when we ask of it* The fearmongers who wish to bestow dark energy amongst us, they shall feel it x 99❣
@@Joy-ym3mx Thank you Joy. Things may seem bleak on the surface. Which is mostly the MSM projecting there lies and propaganda to demoralize the awakened collective. But many of us are on to their tactics. Look at all these global freedom movements that have changed and shifted humanity path for the greater good of all. I was at the trucker Convoy in Ottawa last February and the genuine love energy was palpable. I never felt more proud to be Canadian. Hugging conversing with total strangers, an overwhelming abundance of free food from everyone along with money for the truckers and heart felt letters from kids. The homeless were given food and shelter, monuments were cleaned up and honored with flowers, cleaning the streets (snow and garbage). It was truly beautiful and I am profoundly grateful to have been there and to share it with those who weren't able to go. That movement gave us our freedoms backed and it awakened the masses. And we haven't lead up on this fight by any means. We will not comply and we will make our voices herd. These movements have been happening all over the world. Brazil, The Dutch farmers, France, Italy, etc etc. You can feel this build up to this impending collapse of the global C.a,b.a,l syndicate/s. When this happens there will be a massive dark night of the soul. All the things these people have done to humanity and all those involved. Many of whom are probably people that we've all idolized at one point or still do (the awakened). They'll need our help when and if they're ready? ❤❤ Many of these people may have treated you poorly because of your views and decisions regarding an experimental medical procedure. We just need to start healing process and we start by helping others through love and compassion (unconditional). ❤🌎❤
I'm a senior citizen and need to live close to the health care you find in cities (such as it is). But I applaud all you brave younger people who are choosing to live off-grid away from the exorbitant cost of city living, crime and yes - the wokeness. I'm rooting for you!
I've started to think things 'happen' so slowly they never happen. Nothing to fear. Just focus on understanding the circumstances you live in and bettering your life.
Yep. So many ppl getting wrapped up in the fear mongering. Ppl have thought the world is going down the tubes for centuries. The reality is there has never been a higher standard of living for such a large percentage of the world population
I'm a Northwest Arkansas native of 40+ years. We've been a longstanding staple on the "Most Desirable Places To Live/Move to/Raise a family, etc. Our growth has been exponential over the past 20 years. So, it was time to make a move. We were able to get 28 acres of beautiful Ozark Mountains dreamland in 2020 for $3,800/acre. Only 30 minutes to the city. Absolute steal. We're currently building our dream home and fully plan to go off grid as much as possible. Glad I found you.

Start learning skills wherever are you folks, you don't need to grow your own food to learn how to can. Geopolitical events over the next few weeks could trigger some wild public reactions and panic, get your seed orders in folks.
Absolutely come together, pool your real life skills and teach other those skills for free, and how to regain our links with each other and the earth, rekindle the range of the human spirit, which we have by and large lost and then a vision of how things might be will be everlasting.
Been watching you for a while Curtis… thank you for your videos… if there is one thing I would recommend to you… read the book The Great Controversy…. It explains exactly why things are going the way they are… and it also recommends moving to the country… keep up the good work

8 yrs off grid coming up in May..... this has been coming for a looooong time..... Im glad folks are finally seeing it somewhat. But it shocks me how much ppl forget. How quickly they just wanna go back to "normal" .... keep up the good fight
You are still being monitored if you are using internet and i phone by Microsoft, they know your location always, credit card companies know your vicinity as well, so is that being off grid?
@@WhotheHellknowsAnyway what definition are we going by here? Losing yourself grey man style? Going off THE grid? Or living off the grid? Because they are 2 very diff things. I am not in any way looking to run and tuck tail and duck for cover....

If we want to play the "yeah but no one owns their land so why bother" game I guess Im screwed..... but Im a whole lot less screwed than most ;) Being monitored doesnt bother me in the least..... being compelled because I have a weakness like debt does.... or a weakness like illness.... or a weakness like being soft and system dependent. If I die on this hill and Ive given it my best, i guess Ive spent my days well with little regret. off grid? yup.
@@WhotheHellknowsAnyway I have to add a side note..... only an absolute blind man would be using a credit card at this point.... and that has nothing to do with being monitored

We bought 50 acres of timber property a year ago and cleared 3 acres for the homestead and solar farm. Took 7 months of chopping all that timber into firewood, but shouldn't have to do that for another 10 years or so. Couldn't agree with you more. Things really aren't looking good in the near term for the dollar and most people are clueless because the media isn't really covering it. Tough times are coming.
Glad I found this channel. And subscribed. You are a wise man. 10 years ago I was thinking along the same lines as you and I bought a country house 50 miles out of the Metro. Over the years we haven't quite moved up there yet, wife still works. At times I feel like maybe I should just let it go, I have an incredible amount of equity. I'm glad we've hung onto it. it looks like I might need the place after all. Besides I love country living, there's a lot of freedom.
I keep hearing from PATRIOTS: “Let’s run away to the rural areas”. No surprise the liberals are winning. We PATRIOTS just think I’m running away from the problems.
For the atheists out there: there’s a reason why the Bible begins with Eve being deceived by the serpent in the Garden of Eden. It is still a good idea to read the Bible even if you as atheists read it as literature rather then reading it for faith like I do.
My point here is that upper middle class women are the most vulnerable to the deceptions of not just media but women’s social groups. There is a huge social need for father figures to step forward and communicate (Jordan Peterson can’t do it all)
There are so many of us who would love to but simply cannot afford it. We need wealthy people to buy land and offer us homesteads in places where we can still go to work.
hey Curtis, We are heading to digital currency. Getting out of the cities is what we have believed for long time. Great content. My church has preached this exact thing for yrs and Im seeing it happen before my very eyes. Im buying properties for retirement. I may need to focus my inner farmer sooner than I expect. Glad to have known you for so long and see your journey. Keep up the messaging.

Husband and a I are partially disabled ( I walk with a cane- spinal issues, he has MS) I have faith we can do this. He’s more concerned. With 5 kids, a few might come to build and help and live. Can we realistically do this? We live 6 miles from city center of Portland Oregon. He retires at end of next school year. Just don’t want to go under because dreams are too big for us.
You’re blessed to have children that would even consider it. So many people your age were brainwashed to believe in over population, now they’re alone without a team. Family is everything. Blessings and best of luck to you and yours!
I’ve got MS (25+ years). My husband and I have 6 children too. It seems that vit D3 really helps. Vit. K2 also it motivates the calcium to go to your bones and teeth (away from your tissues and veins). Now I eat a can of salmon each day. I also take 40,000 iUs each day. I also take 600 mcg K2 each day. A decade+ ago my MS was relentlessly mean. I was commonly walking into walls. My sense of balance was gone. It progressed to put me in a wheelchair. It took about 13 months of daily salmon to get my health and balance back. The problem as I forgot to eat my daily salmon (it wasn’t my favorite thing to eat and take my D3). When you become reasonably well you sometimes forget... MS is ruthless. Now I finally remembered with God’s help, what pulled me out last time. The internet is also a good resource. 🙂🙏 Best wishes and prayers, Laura
One other comment Curtis. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization has 142 member applicants, who as I understand, are ready to join the BRICS nations and begin dumping U.S. dollars in two weeks. This means about seven trillion dollars coming home to roost and drive inflation to insane levels. Our fiat currencies will also crash, things are about to get hinky fast.
Curtis, I am playing catch-up on this series of your videos and it's interesting watching them even a few months later and to hear/see what has 'come true' since you made these videos. My wife and I are talking through homesteading to see how we can make a move work right now with interest rates and low inventory. Thanks for your insights and straight forward talk...it's what we need right now.
I Totally Agree with You, i Bought 15 Acres in 2012 and 46 Acres a Few Months Ago and Both Properties are no where near the cities. It’s All About to Hit The Fan VERY SOON. Thank You Very Much For Sharing Your Knowledge with Us and May God Bless You And Your Family 🙏🙏
During lockdowns, covid buyers migrated to the suburbs for the most part. Better than being in the city but still close to your means of income or commerce. Joel Skousen wrote a great book called Strategic Relocation.

Agree with you completely. I sensed something was brewing when the plandemic started. When everyone was in panic mode, I decided to leave Canada and look for a village property elsewhere. Found a cheap one with land to grow food, house, barn plus 2 other buildings . I have my own spring water well , fresh air to breathe and freedom. Best decision I made. However, in the last 2 plus years , city folk have been buying up properties and land, which is driving up prices.
@@melissapoirier851 I went to Serbia..a country I visited a few times and fell in love with. The cost of living is low, the food is delicious and the people are very hospitable.. Village properties can be found for as low as 20,000 euros with a livable house and $5000 euros for one requiring a total renovation.
@@offgridcurtisstone My property included almost a hectare which is just over 2 acres . Along with arable land, It has various mature trees - apple, pear, quince, fig , cherry, plum, elderberry, mulberry , blackberry, walnut , chestnut, grapes plus various edible/ medicinal plants. Land price depends on the category of land ( 1-8? ) whether it’s rocky, flat , rich soil, has fruit trees, forest, any source of water, etc. Generally, a hectare went for around 2000 euro (mostly rocky) to over 100,000 euro ( flat and fertile) . Prices are rising with demand increasing. There are lots of villages with vacant houses and land that hasn’t been worked for years . The only people left are the elderly as the young are working in cities or out of country. Currently, there are like minded people moving into certain villages and they are creating their own communities ( growing organic , holding seminars on composting, growing vegetables, raising farm animals, identifying medicinal herbs/ edible mushrooms, building houses with mud and straw or hemp, etc) . Along the same line as you mentioned in your video. The government is also giving houses with acreage in certain villages to couples under 40, with the expectation of them raising their families there and working the land.
The amount of road rage is suprizing, you can't even honk at someone without getting brake checked, fingered or threatened. There's so much hate out there.
Love it!! My wife and I just scored a flood irrigated 1 acre lot in the green belt of central Arizona in 2021. We have all the water and space we need to get growing, just lacking the time to get it going. Never enough time in a day or week for sure.

We've been looking at Central kentucky real estate for 18 months now. We we're going to move 18 months ago. The market was crazy ! Most everything selling in 2 days or less. We decided to take time. Prices are dropping 100's od 1000's on some properties. Ideally we'd like to be in the 350,000 range. It's still fairly tight. Making a move soon.
I am ready and need help . I am working on selling my assists. I did the work here on my city home site. Raised chikens all my on food , and learned how to harvest plants and animals. Ready for the move.
Thanks Curtis. Thats awesome. I started looking at lands in 2019 and i ve been outpriced until now! So yea, im on the side line, cant wait to leave overpriced overpopulated Miami FL and homestead my land. Im gonna do the early bird sub right now!
Personally I'm trying to get out of Florida. It's way too expensive here and will only get worse as homeowners insurance and auto insurance are way overpriced. I'm wanting to go to Alabama. Better soil and lower prices. I just hope I can sell before the housing market drops because of the homeowners insurance mess!
@@offgridcurtisstone yes FL is overpriced, car and property insurance are to the roof and i dont like that population keeps growing so fast, for shtf, its not a good state.

Last summer there was a 301 acre farm, 50 acres of pasture, the rest was bush + house, barns, outbuildings and water access to a small river for $699k in my area of Ontario about 45 from algonquin park. Another property just down my road was 198 acres for 350k. The prices have stayed rather low here cus theres nothing here but they're dropping more and more. That 301 acre farm sat for 6 months before they pulled it off the market
I know this area well and live here. These are old Kashub farms that cud not sustain a goat and the topsoil is about an 1 inch thick and pasture filled with rocks. Just look at the rock fences on these Kashub farms (on the Opeongo Line); more spectacular then the Pyramid in Egypt or the plateaus in Pichuu, Peru. No wonder they are a bargain, AS u NEED 1 MILLION $ of equipment/supplies/services to make em liveable.
As a recently retired realtor who still watches the market, there are very few pieces of land available in N Texas that are suitable to set up a homestead. My small farm which was rural when I bought it is about to be surrounded by a huge subdivision. I have been looking for 4 years for a place within an hour of the kids and grandkids and cannot find one for what I can sell my place for. I refuse to get a mortgage. (I have been mortgage free since 1999). There are too many people moving here from California and other blue states that have been driving the prices up!
Good, useful video. I think though, that you mean "reprieve," not "reprise." For people who do not have $350K to spend on a homestead, even getting into the country near small towns in the US one can find older homes with a half acre or an acre for around $100K or less USD, and do an intensive permaculture food forest situation. My thought is, go smaller and pay cash if possible. Better to have a small homestead that you own, rather than a large acreage you have a mortgage on.
The last few years haven't been crazy. The ten or twenty years prior to it were the crazy years. The last few years have just been the inevitable, predictable consequence of indulging in so much craziness for so long.
Most people can’t afford to create a homestead. I also purchased in 2020. 30 acres and have spent tens of thousands trying to clear land and still don’t have my first double poly greenhouse covered yet. I started the foundation last May. Got the frame up in October and now it has sat all winter. I work full time and have taken on so much debt to try to make a homestead I wonder if it would be better to just buy my eggs at the store instead of investing thousands in infrastructure to get my own eggs. When I could have bought them for years at the store.
Why is "most people" even a consideration? I help who we can and if the views and likes on this video are any measure of that, I'd say there's a lot of people who are interested.
because I am interested in doing this myself, I am curious what your expenses are. I was thinking I would need money for a well if I don't have a friendly neighbor with one, and eventually I might hire a pro to help me build a house when I get tired of living in the shed, but I was thinking I could do most things myself with sweat equity, and maybe 2 or 3k in food, tools, materials etc. maybe I am just delusional and romanticizing it, but our ancestors settled virgin land with much less.
maybe you would be interested in a partner, I could buy a chunk of that 30 acres and help with the labor on both our properties, of course we would need to establish a relationship first to know if we get along. anyway, good luck to you maybe when the stores are out of eggs and most other food you will be more happy with your decision.
@@seand.5535 if you have cash or valuable skills, you can get a well. Talk to lots of people in the area, go to church, volunteer, join the Eagles club. My friends paid double the cost of their well because they didn’t ask anyone for recommendations.
@@offgridcurtisstone Yes of course there are lots of people interested but only the fortunate few that can afford it. I have spent hours searching for grants from food and agriculture, conservation, provincial and federal sites. Even just low interest loans would be nice but no luck. Even Farm credit Canada won’t give me a loan because it is not in active farm status. So all initial set up has to be privately funded. Neighbours that have a well don’t have enough water to bath and wash their clothes and spent over $20k on their wells. I use the old cistern still and have my water delivered. Infrastructure investment for electricity is $30k minimum then plans, labour and material for any building over 400 sq ft an easy $10k. Two weeks ago I had a forestry mulch head on a skid steer come and clear 3/4 or an acre at $315/hr. Now I have to pull all the stumps and dig drainage ditches and set and install fence. If I ever cared to actually pay my debt off then I would be in trouble. This is why they say you will own nothing and be happy because they try to make you miserable in ownership because of the burden of debt. I was a monthly subscriber of from the field, then paid for the lifetime when it came out, hoping to build my own greenhouses only to find out you need 3 people to bend the steel. I don’t have the time to watch any of the videos after being a father, working a full time job, working full time to clear the land, build a farm, look after animals. I’m just saying it is great for the people that can afford it. They are truly blessed. When you were looking for help building your farm I would have loved to come, only it paid less than half what I needed to pay my bills, just the same that I wish I could afford to pay someone to come help me. Given the choice I’m sure I would still do it all over again just when you are already in debt and tied to a full time job it is a hard startup
Just moved out to the country. About 4 acres with trees and some farmland around. My property has a big shop, room for garden and fruit tree and trees for wood
I love these videos of yours. Triggered me to start homesteading. This is the first year of growing a chunk of our own potatoes and veggies. I moved out of the city a few years ago but we live currently in the Netherlands, which kind of counts as one big city. Mega crammed little country. We are planning to move to southern Europe, probably Portugal next winter. We still on our research since its very dry country. But a lot of space. Eastern Europe is also very attractive land. Cheap and a lot of wild land, with a lot of space, but the culture feels more foreign to us.
Curtis you are such a wise man! So many issues to our democracy... trust is at risk.. I still believe you are my big brother wiseman and my influencer I hope you know from microgreens to farming and energy..your my hero hug ❤so how is the sand energy going anything I can look at that your doing I am moving off grid in Oregon it would be a great and helpful strategy..hope to here from you Curtis. Thanks Bro..
I realize this question is kind of subjective, but... I'm currently reading Salatin's classic book "You can farm". In it, he recommends being as close as possible to a population center (maximum of 40min from the nearest town of 25,000+). I get his economic/sales reason for saying this, but at the same time I totally on board with what you're saying about the zombie apocollapse. As somebody whose done both the off-grid thing, and the urban farmer thing, what advice to you have for reconciling these two competing ideas?
Remember, Joel wrote that book a long time ago and it is about commercial farming. It all comes down to you. Are you commercially farming or homesteading?
@@offgridcurtisstone Thank you for your response! I don't know the answer to that, but having the question put in those terms gives me something to think about...
Not fan of either president.. things are never going to be the same . I live in a Mtn town in Colorado. Had so many people move here during covid and everything has gone up . I am looking into a couple properties. I’m a green thumb and love it . I’ll look into your coarse !! Thanks for sharing 💚
Hey, thanks for the content. Just curious if you ever considered moving to the US? I only ask because it seems in some ways the government in your country is further along the path to absolute tyranny. I know the US has other and different problems. Just curious.
I'm a real estate agent on the Big Island of Hawaii. We bought our homestead 11 years ago and never looked back. Best investment in our safety and future ever. I do see more people waking up to the realization that we can count on ourselves for safety and food.
I'm canadian and I knew a real estate agent on the big island. His name is Dren Barley or Drone Ganski. He used 2 names for some reason...I know this was random but it's been like 12 years since I was there, I'm wondering if you know him or if he's still around.
To be honest with you. I feel the more useless eater come to the country the harder it will be for people like me who have been working their arse off for the last six years trying to prepare.
Curtis I have a question.. let's say that those who do not partake in their system and end up "cut off", how does a person acquire items to preserve their foods? I know that sugar is an easy one to get around but what about salt, vinegar and things like that? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Ontario here.
@@Semples373n I appreciate the suggestions. I have been fortunate enough to already utilize those methods. Books are a resource that is invaluable to me hence my decent collection.
Looking to buy a property in South bc canada. Everything Curtis is saying is true. I've been following this information for years but unable to manifest a way out so far. Let me know if anyone in South bc knows of a property out of town. I will be a great neighbour 💗
@@barryhall3971 Interesting perspective, I think you were making a joke? You know Nikola Tesla invented most of the initial iterations of our modern technology in almost complete solitude?
In Bulgaria, they got real communist like there. People were not allowed to talk nor walk together. People were allowed out of their apartments only to buy food on the designated day & time at the designated store depending on where people lived. A friend there was fined literally his entire month's salary for sitting in a branch & then he got fired. But he has since recovered.
Using intensive grazing practices with animals has proven in Australia and elsewhere around the world that its possible to re-green any usually dry environment. Natural grasses begin to grow, natural waterways can come back. I keep looking at the background thinking you could utilize animals to rehab your dry forested areas. I'm born and raised in BC, and that's what I'll be doing soon. You have a beautiful property! I want a passive solar greenhouse too and love your 2-tiered design.
Grant, if you know the area you want to buy in, go to the nearest towns, have coffee and chat with people, look at the local classifieds, check out the churches and maybe talk to the pastors, talk to people who work in the grocery stores. This is how some of my friends found properties that weren’t on the market.
@@LilyGazou thanks Lily! Good tips. Looking for community willing to stand up to tyranny about anywhere that’s not too cold. (3 months of cold ok, but not 6!)
Black Rock bought the building my company is in, paying twice appraisal value, and is going to tear it down and build a giant Amazon Distribution Center. These people are ruthless, Godless, evil in the way they operate.
Blackrock is doing that everywhere. Homes, industrial and land. Driving prices up to oblivion. How are they able to do this? Easy. They use your money and leverage the hell out of it and 2nd they print they’re own $$. Easy to do since money is fiat. An entry in a ledger.
Agreed
When you have control of the printing presses you can out bid all the competition.
@@cropduster8798 Imagine having a printing press to counterfit money. Use it to buy physical assets - from printing coupons from thin air. The Fed would have done this if it was legal. But if the Fed could hire a company to do it for them then that would be way to do it - enter BlackRock.
And those who use Amazon are fuelling the fires they will eventually have to try and put out.
I bought 9 acres (of mostly steep bushland) here in the South of Australia last year- it's been 4 months full time off grid so far, still working on a shower and running water. I wouldn't want too much land, as land rates/taxes are going to ramp up hard and if you're sitting on 100+ acres you could be paying tens of thousands for your rates each year. I got out of my mortgage with good timing as there have been pretty hardcore interest rate rises here, 11 of them in total. My sister's mortgage repayments are over $1000 AUD PER WEEK.
It's bloody hard going transforming a vacant block of land in the middle of nowhere to a livable space by yourself and unfortunately there's very little community where I live. My boss on the organic farm I work at is a good bloke but he's not aware of the bigger picture with what's going on in the world. I have one permanent neighbor in the bush near me, across a gully, in hundreds of acres of bushland - quad jabbed and I'd say he weighs over 120kg, so tbh I don't think I'll have any neighbors soon. The only awake beings around here seems to be the wildlife and they're not the best conversationalists! In any case, it's a cool journey and I have my lovable Border Collie with me.
Lol good on y’a mate. Surprised you have internet access to watch this. If I go walk on my 30 acres I don’t get cell service anywhere. I have to be in my house connected to wifi
Sounds like paradise, bush land no people.
Maybe bringing in millions more “refugees” would fix it? That’s what we are told. The more voters /consumers the better.

It can be good to have some people around in places like this, if you should need help. In Spring there are savage winds and high rainfall so there are trees falling down all over the place. I don't leave my property without a chainsaw, EVER. In summer there's bushfires and deadly snakes to be aware of. Thankfully I'm allowed to take my dog to work with me if need be. Tiger snakes are quite common out here.

Wow! What a breath of fresh air! Stumbled on your channel today somehow, and man are you spot on! Love what you’re doing, everything you said is 💯. We saw the writing on the wall and moved out of our city bungalow in summer 2021, found 5 acres in the woods, started raised boxes, fruit trees, raspberries and elderberry, we’re in Michigan so zone 5b-6a, I’m on my 2nd season of garlic now after the first try did amazing. Time to become independent, every little thing helps, learn and keep trying!
It's amazing that those of us who considered ourselves moderate centrists politically just a few years ago now find ourselves being labeled as far-right, simply because the 'progressives' (authoritarians) yanked the Overton window so far to the left so quickly. Been enjoying enjoying the journey in the soil with you from afar since 2015. Much love, and stay the path!
Absolutely. I was what you'd call "culturally liberal" for most of my life. I've even been to drag shows back when I was in Montreal. Then when men wanting to live out their fantasies started demanding our children attention, I said, no way in hell.

We had a covid buyer wave in Bulgaria, it was about the least coronatarian and by far the least jabbed in the EU . I sold a few properties and the main reason was to get out of Germany, Austria, UK tyranny. There is a good opportunity here as well, we haven't had a proper Govt for 3 years and guess what its actually functioning just fine.We have regional and local supply chains and really a national homestead mentality.
Interesting consideration. Thanks for sharing this.
Everything controlled by the crown of England had tyranny.

Given the close alignment with Russia it could go bad, real bad quick. Tarrifs, western policies, and well known corruption in Bulgaria is all dangerous....Regardless of your political affiliation/beliefs, unstable political systems can destroy your life quickly. Would never buy in a country known for corruption and political instability.

We bought last year in New Brunswick. 25acres, moved from BC. Even after doing that with the price of everything going up everything is still so tight. Glad we abandoned our 1/2 a million dollar mortgage. Chickens established, pigs and garden next.

I’m glad you are helping out the minority of Klaus’ story. Remember, it describes how the main character, a young (completely ignorant) man states how great everything is in the (15 minute) city. He can rent anything he needs (including his underwear) at any time and it’s delivered to him. He knows that every step he makes is monitored and he hopes it won’t ever be used again him (a basic fallacy of course).
His main concern (which is really uplifting, because apparently he has not been completely assimilated yet) are the people “left behind” in the country side. He pities them and wonders how they will fend for themselves without “society”.

Felt the same way in 1976 Curtis. This is when I started my prepper journey. Have not lived in a city since. Really enjoy your channel. Have been following you for years.
If you are going to a city for supplies are you being monitored by your purchases?
If U lived on ur rural property (away from the city) since 1976 u r probably so poor u cud not afford to buy a can of beans. There are only subsistence wages in outback Kcanadistan.
In addition, I sent this 15 minute city video to my sister-in-law who lives in another small town not far from Kentville … she refused to watch it. An ostrich with her head in the sand!
We got out of Southern California 2 years ago for Central Kentucky. Thank God!
I grew up down there and escaped in 1998. Have never looked back and know that dump is the worst place you could be right now.

my 27 year old son has lost his mind. I tried to help him get out of the city. He thinks I'm crazy. I moved to the bush with my mom and my youngest boy. Been prepping for a while now. I needed both my sons here. My oldest was diagnosed with ptsd and sever adhd. my heart hurts.....
All you can do is your best. And pray for him.
I’m sure there are other mothers who want to do what you’re doing and maybe already are. Create a sort of community.
What caused his PTSD if you don't mind my asking.
I am a single dad with a 16yo son who has some emotional issues. Partly due to my mistakes and failures as a father & part due to his mother's behavior and abandonment along with many other mitigating circumstances including his own poor choices.
Definitely kind of struggling here.
I know what you are going through my family members think I am crazy with conspiracy theories, but are coming true , you have to let them go, so you can survive what's coming.
Is there family generational karma? Maybe it's your job to heal it by finding the benefit to what you have learned. Karma does not correct until everyone has found this discovery.
Maybe he didn’t lose his mind. I obviously have no idea. But I’d rather live in areas that brought me joy and novelty experiences. None of us are here forever. I’d rather have a shorter life lived with as many possibilities as I can rather than in fear and cut off from what makes me happy. Wether that is in the city or in the country, that’s up for each of us to decide
The only thing I would add is that now is the worst time to go into debt. If you want to move make sure you pay cash in full.
Too much debt that’s for sure.
to live in the rural means you don't rely on others(government) to make your life better but improve it with your own means...if you feel that way then you should do fine as long as you have some skills or the desire to build them.
No you will still rely on others including governments. Do you think all that high tech gear Curtis has like dc/ac inverters based on computer chips and power Mosfets, MPPT controllers, lithium batteries, Tesla cars etc can be manufactured and maintained by mom and pop rural businesses?
I'm an an Alaska born Alaskan and have lived hundreds of miles from the metropolitan area and could be't be dragged in chains to the city.

Curtis, like you I do much research on everything before moving forward mitigating risk, checking the boxes on non/negotiables etc. We have successfully completed Phase 1 of our building on our mountain property fully selected with all intent on very much the same criteria you have employed (move in date June 1). I consider myself pretty informed and prepared (ex search and rescue and now prepper for over 12 years). The one thing my brain just can't fathom is this thing termed "Wokeness" and the insane way the sheeple are following what I consider inconceivable ideals that to me seem literal blind insanity. I just can't convey with my vocabulary how nuts this is. A lot of my friends and family see it but few act. I have ZERO understanding on how the human brain would think and follow this movement. Thank you for your candid comments and point of view. It makes me feel less alone!

@@mediocrestu8238 I'm not sure anyone in this thread has mentioned fear. Speaking for myself there is no phobia of any kind but a willingness to live in a way that is healthier and more sustainable than relying on the city and government to be spoon fed, it's not for pussies that don't like to work to achieve something or can't handle thinking for themselves. Regardless of the worlds goings on I would be heading in the same direction. As for not defining anything, I think Woke-ism (if thats even a word) is pretty clear to many.

I've been noticing that many properties have been sitting on the market and people either switch realty companies or the realtors will remove the listing and then put it back on the market after a few days, weeks, or even months. It is important to know this when putting in an offer because many properties are double or even triple the tax collector's assessed market value and knowing how long a property has been on the market can help lower the sale price.
Yes totally. I could a few of those as well. Tricky realtors.
One way to verify is to call the municipality and ask what their tax rate is for the property you are looking at. I’ve done that and they were quite helpful.
@@bigshu5520 GIS is easier because it gives quick results of who owns the land and how to contact them, value, taxes, size, etc. Most county tax / revenue collector's offices have GIS online. No need to call, which saves time. Zoning and other concerns is not as easy to research, but some counties are slowly putting that online as well.

Curtis, I love your channel from back when you started out - you inspired me along with the Myselfreliance channel.
I left Canada in 1991, left metro Detroit in 2018. I have 280acres, rivers springs near Lake Superior I'm selling 40 acres and will include 1/2 mile gravel road over 1,000 of river frontage aquifer is 15ft down. Great land $189,900. Keep up the message my brother...
I wouldn't make decisions out of fear. That's one of the tactics that got us into this mess in the first place. Not everyone has the money to go off grid like Curtis has. And that's ok, we can all prepare as best as we can and that's enough. Humanities best days are ahead of us, trust me on this. There will be tough times ahead and it wont be easy for the normies/sleepers to fully grasp the evil and corruption that exists on this planet. It'll be up to us to help them when they're ready. The world and the people in it are good despite what the lying/propagandist media tell you. I'm sure you all know this to be true. When this time comes we need to come together and help each other. I've seen first hand the love and generosity of real Canadians during the trucker convoy. It was beautiful to see and be a part of that. Trust me when I tell you were not headed into a Mad Max type of scenario where we all need g,u.n,s to protect ourselves/family and our food. We may have some discomfort/chaos for a week or 2 as the inevitable collapse of the dollar which will be replaced by a gold back quantum digital system. We'll also have disturbing truth's revealed (crimes against humanity) and real justice for all those involved. Don't give into the fear. Do what you can do for yourself, family, friends and neighbors and the rest God, Source, The Universe, The Creator will provide the rest.
Were all fractals of this creator experiencing lifetime after lifetime's in an infinite number of ways in a mortal form. This is all done through our higher self which is immortal, our soul being. Don't give away your power through fear, were more powerful then that and these people know this which is why they're literally fighting for there lives now even though they know its over. The house of cards is starting to unravel. "Nothing can stop what's coming, NOTHING".
Yes, sometimes it's best to be on familiar ground and I wouldn't advise moving out to the wilderness out of fear, because it will follow you. And if you don't have sufficient funds, it's going to be really brutal, especially in areas with cold winters. Work on the fear within and a solution will come to you.

@@Joy-ym3mx Thank you Joy. Things may seem bleak on the surface. Which is mostly the MSM projecting there lies and propaganda to demoralize the awakened collective. But many of us are on to their tactics. Look at all these global freedom movements that have changed and shifted humanity path for the greater good of all.
I was at the trucker Convoy in Ottawa last February and the genuine love energy was palpable. I never felt more proud to be Canadian. Hugging conversing with total strangers, an overwhelming abundance of free food from everyone along with money for the truckers and heart felt letters from kids. The homeless were given food and shelter, monuments were cleaned up and honored with flowers, cleaning the streets (snow and garbage). It was truly beautiful and I am profoundly grateful to have been there and to share it with those who weren't able to go.
That movement gave us our freedoms backed and it awakened the masses. And we haven't lead up on this fight by any means. We will not comply and we will make our voices herd.
These movements have been happening all over the world. Brazil, The Dutch farmers, France, Italy, etc etc. You can feel this build up to this impending collapse of the global C.a,b.a,l syndicate/s.
When this happens there will be a massive dark night of the soul. All the things these people have done to humanity and all those involved. Many of whom are probably people that we've all idolized at one point or still do (the awakened). They'll need our help when and if they're ready? ❤❤ Many of these people may have treated you poorly because of your views and decisions regarding an experimental medical procedure. We just need to start healing process and we start by helping others through love and compassion (unconditional). ❤🌎❤
I'm a senior citizen and need to live close to the health care you find in cities (such as it is). But I applaud all you brave younger people who are choosing to live off-grid away from the exorbitant cost of city living, crime and yes - the wokeness. I'm rooting for you!

@@stevesly7954 if you're into heretical opinions (e.g. skeptical of contagion, heliocentrism, atomism, etc.), you can round out the picture with math, as taught by one nj wildberger... because, yes, even math itself is screwy.
Left 🇺🇸 last year - couldn't be happier.
Great message and lots of solid observations. In my area it appears the housing and real estate market has lost all of the ground it made during the covid years. Start learning skills wherever are you folks, you don't need to grow your own food to learn how to can. Geopolitical events over the next few weeks could trigger some wild public reactions and panic, get your seed orders in folks.
Absolutely come together, pool your real life skills and teach other those skills for free, and how to regain our links with each other and the earth, rekindle the range of the human spirit, which we have by and large lost and then a vision of how things might be will be everlasting.
Been watching you for a while Curtis… thank you for your videos… if there is one thing I would recommend to you… read the book The Great Controversy…. It explains exactly why things are going the way they are… and it also recommends moving to the country… keep up the good work
Yes I agree. I have a copy as well.
Being dievorced single bachelor and over a bridge on the edge of a city under 40,000 im hoping that is good enough.
Got a garden, getting chickens and RCMP detachment is only a mile from my house
8 yrs off grid coming up in May..... this has been coming for a looooong time..... Im glad folks are finally seeing it somewhat. But it shocks me how much ppl forget. How quickly they just wanna go back to "normal" .... keep up the good fight
You are still being monitored if you are using internet and i phone by Microsoft, they know your location always, credit card companies know your vicinity as well, so is that being off grid?
@@WhotheHellknowsAnyway what definition are we going by here? Losing yourself grey man style? Going off THE grid? Or living off the grid? Because they are 2 very diff things. I am not in any way looking to run and tuck tail and duck for cover.... I AM off grid in terms of the world could go dark and shut down right this second and I owe no man an outstanding bill or service and I can provide all services I need by myself on the homestead we have built. If we want to play the "yeah but no one owns their land so why bother" game I guess Im screwed..... but Im a whole lot less screwed than most ;) Being monitored doesnt bother me in the least..... being compelled because I have a weakness like debt does.... or a weakness like illness.... or a weakness like being soft and system dependent. If I die on this hill and Ive given it my best, i guess Ive spent my days well with little regret. off grid? yup.
@@WhotheHellknowsAnyway I have to add a side note..... only an absolute blind man would be using a credit card at this point.... and that has nothing to do with being monitored
Appreciate you brother. I've been far away from the city for over 10 years and never looked back.
Curtis you are a good man! I appreciate you taking the time to teach others what you have learned.
You speak alot of truth. But no matter how bad it gets.. you still need to try & enjoy your life. We were here for a purpose.. we are not an accident.
Keep the vids comin'!❤
Sometimes I wonder why I watch, you say what I thing, Then it dawned on me, you are far more innovative than I am but even if it’s a rant about what’s going on and how to remedy it I find it nice to see some one is on the same page as I am
We bought 50 acres of timber property a year ago and cleared 3 acres for the homestead and solar farm. Took 7 months of chopping all that timber into firewood, but shouldn't have to do that for another 10 years or so. Couldn't agree with you more. Things really aren't looking good in the near term for the dollar and most people are clueless because the media isn't really covering it. Tough times are coming.
I always knew years ago Curtis you were hinting, than talking, sometimes ranting. Thanks for helping folks. We are doing the same.
Glad I found this channel. And subscribed. You are a wise man.
10 years ago I was thinking along the same lines as you and I bought a country house 50 miles out of the Metro. Over the years we haven't quite moved up there yet, wife still works. At times I feel like maybe I should just let it go, I have an incredible amount of equity. I'm glad we've hung onto it.
it looks like I might need the place after all. Besides I love country living, there's a lot of freedom.
I keep hearing from PATRIOTS:
“Let’s run away to the rural areas”.
No surprise the liberals are winning.
We PATRIOTS just think I’m running away from the problems.
Curtis, my level of respect towards you has increased 10 fold. Great video brother!
For the atheists out there: there’s a reason why the Bible begins with Eve being deceived by the serpent in the Garden of Eden. It is still a good idea to read the Bible even if you as atheists read it as literature rather then reading it for faith like I do.
My point here is that upper middle class women are the most vulnerable to the deceptions of not just media but women’s social groups. There is a huge social need for father figures to step forward and communicate (Jordan Peterson can’t do it all)
Yes indeed, the book of life.
Yes ma'am cause if you read it front to back, there's no denying the truth.
There are so many of us who would love to but simply cannot afford it. We need wealthy people to buy land and offer us homesteads in places where we can still go to work.
hey Curtis, We are heading to digital currency. Getting out of the cities is what we have believed for long time. Great content. My church has preached this exact thing for yrs and Im seeing it happen before my very eyes. Im buying properties for retirement. I may need to focus my inner farmer sooner than I expect. Glad to have known you for so long and see your journey. Keep up the messaging.
much love, respect, and blessings, curtis, to you and your family. nonstop inspiration from you and your wisdom, knowledge and experience. thanks for sharing. cheers from a FL panhandle homestead
Husband and a I are partially disabled ( I walk with a cane- spinal issues, he has MS) I have faith we can do this. He’s more concerned. With 5 kids, a few might come to build and help and live. Can we realistically do this? We live 6 miles from city center of Portland Oregon. He retires at end of next school year. Just don’t want to go under because dreams are too big for us.
You’re blessed to have children that would even consider it. So many people your age were brainwashed to believe in over population, now they’re alone without a team. Family is everything. Blessings and best of luck to you and yours!
Gosh the first step is get far away from Portland
Good luck. You can do it!!@
I’ve got MS (25+ years). My husband and I have 6 children too.
It seems that vit D3 really helps. Vit. K2 also it motivates the calcium to go to your bones and teeth (away from your tissues and veins).
Now I eat a can of salmon each day. I also take 40,000 iUs each day. I also take 600 mcg K2 each day.
A decade+ ago my MS was relentlessly mean. I was commonly walking into walls. My sense of balance was gone. It progressed to put me in a wheelchair. It took about 13 months of daily salmon to get my health and balance back.
The problem as I forgot to eat my daily salmon (it wasn’t my favorite thing to eat and take my D3). When you become reasonably well you sometimes forget... MS is ruthless.
Now I finally remembered with God’s help, what pulled me out last time. The internet is also a good resource. 🙂🙏 Best wishes and prayers, Laura
One other comment Curtis. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization has 142 member applicants, who as I understand, are ready to join the BRICS nations and begin dumping U.S. dollars in two weeks. This means about seven trillion dollars coming home to roost and drive inflation to insane levels. Our fiat currencies will also crash, things are about to get hinky fast.
142 is pretty much all world. I highly doubt china will be the next US. More likely will fall as urss did.
100%. This will start the mass sell off of assets. I'm not the only one saying this.
I've seen your farming videos sporadically for years but never knew we shared a worldview, too. Subscribed.
Curtis, I am playing catch-up on this series of your videos and it's interesting watching them even a few months later and to hear/see what has 'come true' since you made these videos. My wife and I are talking through homesteading to see how we can make a move work right now with interest rates and low inventory. Thanks for your insights and straight forward talk...it's what we need right now.
The concept that all the smart people live in cities is totally backwards. Since moving to a rural area I quickly realized that!
But the people that designed and manufacture all that high-tech solar/power gear that Curtis depends on live in cities, they must be smart people too?
I Totally Agree with You, i Bought 15 Acres in 2012 and 46 Acres a Few Months Ago and Both Properties are no where near the cities. It’s All About to Hit The Fan VERY SOON. Thank You Very Much For Sharing Your Knowledge with Us and May God Bless You And Your Family 🙏🙏
During lockdowns, covid buyers migrated to the suburbs for the most part. Better than being in the city but still close to your means of income or commerce. Joel Skousen wrote a great book called Strategic Relocation.
By numbers, that's right. There's more available in the burbs, but they also went on acreage and there's less acreages available.
Good info; thanks for sharing! Keep your friends/alliances close & keep prepping. Always great to learn new skills even in older age! Blessings to all 🤗💜🇨🇦
Tolerance of degeneracy. Well said. Tolerance ONLY of degeneracy and NOT values and character.
Thank you Curtis.
I couldn't agree more. My wife and I left the city 2 years ago and bought a 1/2 acre in the middle of nowhere.
Agree with you completely. I sensed something was brewing when the plandemic started. When everyone was in panic mode, I decided to leave Canada and look for a village property elsewhere. Found a cheap one with land to grow food, house, barn plus 2 other buildings . I have my own spring water well , fresh air to breathe and freedom. Best decision I made. However, in the last 2 plus years , city folk have been buying up properties and land, which is driving up prices.
Where did u go? I want to get the 🤬 out of Canada !
@@melissapoirier851 I went to Serbia..a country I visited a few times and fell in love with. The cost of living is low, the food is delicious and the people are very hospitable.. Village properties can be found for as low as 20,000 euros with a livable house and $5000 euros for one requiring a total renovation.
How much land can you get for that price out there?
@@offgridcurtisstone My property included almost a hectare which is just over 2 acres . Along with arable land, It has various mature trees - apple, pear, quince, fig , cherry, plum, elderberry, mulberry , blackberry, walnut , chestnut, grapes plus various edible/ medicinal plants.
Land price depends on the category of land ( 1-8? ) whether it’s rocky, flat , rich soil, has fruit trees, forest, any source of water, etc. Generally, a hectare went for around 2000 euro (mostly rocky) to over 100,000 euro ( flat and fertile) . Prices are rising with demand increasing. There are lots of villages with vacant houses and land that hasn’t been worked for years . The only people left are the elderly as the young are working in cities or out of country. Currently, there are like minded people moving into certain villages and they are creating their own communities ( growing organic , holding seminars on composting, growing vegetables, raising farm animals, identifying medicinal herbs/ edible mushrooms, building houses with mud and straw or hemp, etc) . Along the same line as you mentioned in your video. The government is also giving houses with acreage in certain villages to couples under 40, with the expectation of them raising their families there and working the land.
The amount of road rage is suprizing, you can't even honk at someone without getting brake checked, fingered or threatened. There's so much hate out there.
Love it!! My wife and I just scored a flood irrigated 1 acre lot in the green belt of central Arizona in 2021. We have all the water and space we need to get growing, just lacking the time to get it going. Never enough time in a day or week for sure.
Aren't they about to start seriously rationing Arizona's cut of the Colorado River flow?
Arizona is heading into the worst drought of 200 years....
@@mel3256 I’m not so sure after this year, Flagstaff and our state has received record snow and rain. So much water is flowing past Phoenix back to the Colorado River, it’s a first in a VERY long time.
@@GrantDWilliams82 that’s been the talk, but all states were about to get cut back. I’m not sure where things are landing. Luckily for us in the central part of the state, our water isn’t from the Colorado, but the Verde River watershed and the Mogollan Rim completely uninfluenced by what happens on the Colorado.
I am glad to see you do this kind of no-nonsense video. Good on ya.
Very, very realistic and genuinely helpful. Thank you very much!
We've been looking at Central kentucky real estate for 18 months now. We we're going to move 18 months ago. The market was crazy ! Most everything selling in 2 days or less. We decided to take time. Prices are dropping 100's od 1000's on some properties. Ideally we'd like to be in the 350,000 range. It's still fairly tight. Making a move soon.
Again, nothing the Carrington Event, EMPs, the Sun, etc can’t solve.
Observer?
I became a state national 1 year ago. Retake your knowingness,
It is encouraging to see content like this percolating
Rock on brother! Thank you.
I’m fascinated by this... Been researching. So many questions though.
I am ready and need help . I am working on selling my assists. I did the work here on my city home site. Raised chikens all my on food , and learned how to harvest plants and animals. Ready for the move.
Thanks Curtis. Thats awesome. I started looking at lands in 2019 and i ve been outpriced until now!
So yea, im on the side line, cant wait to leave overpriced overpopulated Miami FL and homestead my land.
Im gonna do the early bird sub right now!
Are you gonna stay in Florida?
Personally I'm trying to get out of Florida. It's way too expensive here and will only get worse as homeowners insurance and auto insurance are way overpriced. I'm wanting to go to Alabama. Better soil and lower prices. I just hope I can sell before the housing market drops because of the homeowners insurance mess!
We had a very difficult time finding anything reasonable in Florida as well.
@@offgridcurtisstone yes FL is overpriced, car and property insurance are to the roof and i dont like that population keeps growing so fast, for shtf, its not a good state.
It ia a no income tax state and red with Desantis but they get us with property price and tax, insurance and 7% sales tax.
If i can affors ID, MT, UT i would move there, if not, i ll check TN, MO, AL, but i really like the idea to have moumtains and national forest near my backyard
Last summer there was a 301 acre farm, 50 acres of pasture, the rest was bush + house, barns, outbuildings and water access to a small river for $699k in my area of Ontario about 45 from algonquin park. Another property just down my road was 198 acres for 350k. The prices have stayed rather low here cus theres nothing here but they're dropping more and more. That 301 acre farm sat for 6 months before they pulled it off the market
I know this area well and live here. These are old Kashub farms that cud not sustain a goat and the topsoil is about an 1 inch thick and pasture filled with rocks. Just look at the rock fences on these Kashub farms (on the Opeongo Line); more spectacular then the Pyramid in Egypt or the plateaus in Pichuu, Peru. No wonder they are a bargain, AS u NEED 1 MILLION $ of equipment/supplies/services to make em liveable.
As a recently retired realtor who still watches the market, there are very few pieces of land available in N Texas that are suitable to set up a homestead. My small farm which was rural when I bought it is about to be surrounded by a huge subdivision. I have been looking for 4 years for a place within an hour of the kids and grandkids and cannot find one for what I can sell my place for. I refuse to get a mortgage. (I have been mortgage free since 1999). There are too many people moving here from California and other blue states that have been driving the prices up!
Good, useful video. I think though, that you mean "reprieve," not "reprise." For people who do not have $350K to spend on a homestead, even getting into the country near small towns in the US one can find older homes with a half acre or an acre for around $100K or less USD, and do an intensive permaculture food forest situation. My thought is, go smaller and pay cash if possible. Better to have a small homestead that you own, rather than a large acreage you have a mortgage on.
Brilliant as always, Curtis. So fortunate we bought our 17 acres piece almost 4 years ago. Can’t imagine trying to buy now.
The last few years haven't been crazy. The ten or twenty years prior to it were the crazy years. The last few years have just been the inevitable, predictable consequence of indulging in so much craziness for so long.
Thank you Curtis for the educational updates on this topic.
Most people can’t afford to create a homestead. I also purchased in 2020. 30 acres and have spent tens of thousands trying to clear land and still don’t have my first double poly greenhouse covered yet. I started the foundation last May. Got the frame up in October and now it has sat all winter. I work full time and have taken on so much debt to try to make a homestead I wonder if it would be better to just buy my eggs at the store instead of investing thousands in infrastructure to get my own eggs. When I could have bought them for years at the store.
Why is "most people" even a consideration? I help who we can and if the views and likes on this video are any measure of that, I'd say there's a lot of people who are interested.
because I am interested in doing this myself, I am curious what your expenses are. I was thinking I would need money for a well if I don't have a friendly neighbor with one, and eventually I might hire a pro to help me build a house when I get tired of living in the shed, but I was thinking I could do most things myself with sweat equity, and maybe 2 or 3k in food, tools, materials etc. maybe I am just delusional and romanticizing it, but our ancestors settled virgin land with much less.
maybe you would be interested in a partner, I could buy a chunk of that 30 acres and help with the labor on both our properties, of course we would need to establish a relationship first to know if we get along. anyway, good luck to you maybe when the stores are out of eggs and most other food you will be more happy with your decision.
@@seand.5535 if you have cash or valuable skills, you can get a well. Talk to lots of people in the area, go to church, volunteer, join the Eagles club. My friends paid double the cost of their well because they didn’t ask anyone for recommendations.
@@offgridcurtisstone
Yes of course there are lots of people interested but only the fortunate few that can afford it. I have spent hours searching for grants from food and agriculture, conservation, provincial and federal sites. Even just low interest loans would be nice but no luck. Even Farm credit Canada won’t give me a loan because it is not in active farm status. So all initial set up has to be privately funded. Neighbours that have a well don’t have enough water to bath and wash their clothes and spent over $20k on their wells. I use the old cistern still and have my water delivered. Infrastructure investment for electricity is $30k minimum then plans, labour and material for any building over 400 sq ft an easy $10k.
Two weeks ago I had a forestry mulch head on a skid steer come and clear 3/4 or an acre at $315/hr. Now I have to pull all the stumps and dig drainage ditches and set and install fence. If I ever cared to actually pay my debt off then I would be in trouble. This is why they say you will own nothing and be happy because they try to make you miserable in ownership because of the burden of debt.
I was a monthly subscriber of from the field, then paid for the lifetime when it came out, hoping to build my own greenhouses only to find out you need 3 people to bend the steel. I don’t have the time to watch any of the videos after being a father, working a full time job, working full time to clear the land, build a farm, look after animals.
I’m just saying it is great for the people that can afford it. They are truly blessed. When you were looking for help building your farm I would have loved to come, only it paid less than half what I needed to pay my bills, just the same that I wish I could afford to pay someone to come help me.
Given the choice I’m sure I would still do it all over again just when you are already in debt and tied to a full time job it is a hard startup
Just moved out to the country. About 4 acres with trees and some farmland around. My property has a big shop, room for garden and fruit tree and trees for wood
Great start, i am so jealous
Getting so excited!
I love these videos of yours. Triggered me to start homesteading. This is the first year of growing a chunk of our own potatoes and veggies. I moved out of the city a few years ago but we live currently in the Netherlands, which kind of counts as one big city. Mega crammed little country.
We are planning to move to southern Europe, probably Portugal next winter. We still on our research since its very dry country. But a lot of space. Eastern Europe is also very attractive land. Cheap and a lot of wild land, with a lot of space, but the culture feels more foreign to us.
Love this! Thank you for speaking on this subject. My ears are open. I’m in Texas.
A lot of good places in Texas right now. We have even thought of buying something seasonal down there.
I'm with it. I'm on board.
You’ve really nailed it with the use of commerce against the masses.
Curtis you are such a wise man! So many issues to our democracy... trust is at risk.. I still believe you are my big brother wiseman and my influencer I hope you know from microgreens to farming and energy..your my hero hug ❤so how is the sand energy going anything I can look at that your doing I am moving off grid in Oregon it would be a great and helpful strategy..hope to here from you Curtis. Thanks Bro..
I realize this question is kind of subjective, but...
I'm currently reading Salatin's classic book "You can farm". In it, he recommends being as close as possible to a population center (maximum of 40min from the nearest town of 25,000+). I get his economic/sales reason for saying this, but at the same time I totally on board with what you're saying about the zombie apocollapse.
As somebody whose done both the off-grid thing, and the urban farmer thing, what advice to you have for reconciling these two competing ideas?
Remember, Joel wrote that book a long time ago and it is about commercial farming. It all comes down to you. Are you commercially farming or homesteading?
@@offgridcurtisstone Thank you for your response!
I don't know the answer to that, but having the question put in those terms gives me something to think about...
Not fan of either president.. things are never going to be the same . I live in a Mtn town in Colorado. Had so many people move here during covid and everything has gone up . I am looking into a couple properties. I’m a green thumb and love it . I’ll look into your coarse !! Thanks for sharing 💚

I would say if the US dollar does not collapse you might be okay, if it does you need to move fast.

Totally. We can get the same freedom up here in many ways. I do love Texas though.
What state are you in?
I'm a real estate agent on the Big Island of Hawaii. We bought our homestead 11 years ago and never looked back. Best investment in our safety and future ever. I do see more people waking up to the realization that we can count on ourselves for safety and food.
I'm canadian and I knew a real estate agent on the big island. His name is Dren Barley or Drone Ganski. He used 2 names for some reason...I know this was random but it's been like 12 years since I was there, I'm wondering if you know him or if he's still around.
To be honest with you. I feel the more useless eater come to the country the harder it will be for people like me who have been working their arse off for the last six years trying to prepare.
They don't last out here. Many are going back to the cities now.
Shhhhhhush!!!! 🤫
Everyone that is still there can stay there and leave us all alone in peace and quiet!
Curtis I have a question.. let's say that those who do not partake in their system and end up "cut off", how does a person acquire items to preserve their foods? I know that sugar is an easy one to get around but what about salt, vinegar and things like that? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Ontario here.
Stock up now as things will get more expensive with time. Salt, vinegar , sugar, etc store well.
Yes stock for hard times. There will be a market for things albeit under the table
@@helenkessler6012 okay that's somewhat of my conclusion as well, I was interested in seeing if I was missing something from a different perspective.
Buy a book. You can make vinegar yourself, you can acquire salt from the coast. Knowledge is power. Stock what you can, learn to make more.
@@Semples373n I appreciate the suggestions. I have been fortunate enough to already utilize those methods. Books are a resource that is invaluable to me hence my decent collection.

yes but please tell some people to remain in the city to keep designing new high-efficiency solar panels and batteries.
@@barryhall3971 Interesting perspective, I think you were making a joke? You know Nikola Tesla invented most of the initial iterations of our modern technology in almost complete solitude?
In Bulgaria, they got real communist like there. People were not allowed to talk nor walk together. People were allowed out of their apartments only to buy food on the designated day & time at the designated store depending on where people lived. A friend there was fined literally his entire month's salary for sitting in a branch & then he got fired. But he has since recovered.
Looks like everyone is waiting for someone else to light the first match. We all need to be involved with the Backburn
It´s always time to get outta the city.The problem is people don´t know how to do this step.

Using intensive grazing practices with animals has proven in Australia and elsewhere around the world that its possible to re-green any usually dry environment. Natural grasses begin to grow, natural waterways can come back. I keep looking at the background thinking you could utilize animals to rehab your dry forested areas. I'm born and raised in BC, and that's what I'll be doing soon. You have a beautiful property! I want a passive solar greenhouse too and love your 2-tiered design.

Grant, if you know the area you want to buy in, go to the nearest towns, have coffee and chat with people, look at the local classifieds, check out the churches and maybe talk to the pastors, talk to people who work in the grocery stores. This is how some of my friends found properties that weren’t on the market.
