    I am a police officer in a major city. I am going through the same feelings of wanting to be more healthy and self sufficient. I retire in a couple years and hope to be able to get a small rural property somehow. Neighbors and local governments, bureaucrats, they are all petty tyrants. So happy to see you living your best life and on your own terms. God bless.

    "How little value stuff really had..." I replayed that segment several times because it's so profound. People work like slaves to aquire stuff only for it to hold no value in the end. I encourage all who read this to watch the BBC documentary The Century of the Self. It explains how we became a society of consumers. I'm glad this family freed themselves and are now living a life they truly value.

    I have to say after all the channels I’ve been through to find one that is relatable to who I am and where I am in life but to also find inspiration and learn. You nailed the mindset, thought process and experience. I live in the PA Mountains, originally a city girl lol from Cleveland, Ohio. We tend to think we want the things: house,car,career the lifestyle until it doesn’t want you for who you authentically are. I’ve never made a comment before on a Channel but i’m inspired. Thank you

    Lost my dad about 6months ago. Tried selling all his tools and machinery, cars and other assets. This is when I realized how hard he worked to aquire all this and how little value it had. Even the new items still in the boxes with only the guarantee expired had lost more then 50 to 70% of the value. Over 60 years of acquisition and worth hardly anything. Its been 2 years that I have been thinking of breaking free but this was a wake up call for me.

      My wife and I are wanting this break away from the hustle of life. We have always found ourselves working more and making more money. But when is it enough? How much is enough? I think being born in the consumer mindset is a trap of the soul. My wife has the experience of food and livestock from FFA in high-school and always seems to be inspired by it. My experience with mechanics and construction with her expertise is a perfect duo of knowledge. I think this will be worth a conversation soon. Just break away the shackles and live off the land. Thanks for your inspiration. Is there any tricks to living like this that helps minimize the anxiety of things like health care, paying/bartering for the everyday necessities? Just work minimal gig jobs? That sort of thing. Thanks.

    I was an independent housekeeper for 20 years and I was floored how most of my clients had stuff.
    Basements filled, closets packed, garages overflowing
    To much of everything
    Ive always lived free of clutter or excess

    Love your story. Totally my thoughts on life. I landed on living tiny by other circumstance but here I am in 400 sq feet. It’s been 4 years now and I’m still learning . We are in Wisconsin so the ability to grow year round is not there. However, tower garden on the inside may be an option. I miss space sometimes but in my situation, I think I’m where God wants me. I’m older, and health is an issue. Learning to live with less “ things” more of God is what I feel we need.

    Its a process as you say and not putting too much pressure on myself to let go but its also a mindset as well.

      It is a process for sure. I had a hard time letting go of my clothes initially. I heard someone say to put them in a bag in another closet first then in a few months see how you feel. That worked for me. By the time I remembered the bag I had forgotten what was in it and just donated the whole bag. That method helped my children too.

      The Lord has been calling me on a mission to declutter, reduce/minimize and simplify my life for the last four years now.. it is really a difficult process because ‘things’ have had such a hold on me! As you said, we work hard to accumulate all the ‘things’ we think we need in life, only to get to the point where we don’t want to be a ‘slave’ to these things, and we get the desire to rid ourselves of them.
      This whole idea really hit me when my own aging parents sold their home to move into a senior apartment to not have the work of maintaining a home.. and l saw the process of trying to clean out a small home, and sell things not wanted or needed, and then they tried to give things to their children.. and then they gave me a truck load of stuff to take to the thrift store, and finally they moved the rest of their ‘stuff’ into my sisters basement.. this is where it’s been for six years! ..and l vowed that l would NOT do this to my kids! And l knew that l needed to start getting rid of stuff, and reduce the things l had. It’s been a slow process, starting with cleaning out the possessions my five children left behind when they moved out! I want to downsize, and we’ve been trying to find some land to homestead on.. we have a half acre in a small town and have been increasing our garden space yearly for the last four years, but just don’t have the room to do what we want. I find it really interesting that the Lord seems to be calling His people to this lifestyle 💗

    I just found your Channel, tonight. It is delightful to hear where you have been and where you are now. I am a Senior and was raised on a Ranch in Colorado. We had two gigantic gardens one for Veggies and one for flowers. I love growing things. I now live in an Apartment with a six ft Benjamin Ficus, and a gorgeous Tropical plant that flowers. I yen for the great outdoors and having a garden again. I will be able to afford a nice place soon. But your remarks tapped the brakes for me. I don't want too much to care for. I do want Vegetables, fruit Shrubs & Trees. Country living away from people. As Henry David Thoreau said: "Simplify, Simplify, Simplify"! At my Age I am still learning that truism! I like how you deleted the excess in your Life. I did that in my Marriage. Went from 3 Br, 2 Bth, Porsche, Saab, Sailboat, Jeep, etc. One kid, two dogs, and a Mortgage. We sold it all and hit the road in a 23' Avion Travel Trailer. We did that for six years. Then ended up in Salmon, ID flying the back-country for Big Game Hunters and Whitewater Rafting. Another House, 2 Acres, and a Big Garden. I canned everything, created Chutney Recipes with the excess. I made Sauerkraut, homemade Bread, Yogurt, etc. Brutal winters, short grow season, made the best of it. Then to the Big City - Spokane, another house, no garden. I created one with horse manure, Straw mulch, etc. Loved it had great flowers. Brutal Winters, cross country skied, white water rafted. Divorce.
    Lived there for another 9 years. Then I moved to Florida, now wanting out of here, so many people, and so many rules in HOA's Brutal Experiences there. I like where you have landed, and I know it feels great. I was wondering about the Tower Gardens I was so surprised to see you turning the tomatoes around on a lazy Susan!! Whew! That is neat. Congratulations on landing where you are happy. I guess that is what I will be looking for. Not much upkeep, privacy, NO HOA's EVER AGAIN! I like the no lawn idea, low maintenance.

    Your story resonates with me, as my family too had moved from the city to the countryside for a simpler life. As I watched your video, I gasped at your tower garden as I too grow on a tower - though indoors - since our summer and winter are harsh. You've inspired me to look at more options for this planting style outdoors. Thanks for your lovely video.

    • @theaeroponictowerchannel
      @theaeroponictowerchannel  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! The towers have been a game changer for me. I grow SO much food. I grow indoors in the winter as well.

    Wow, well done! I also started a minimalistic lifestyle 14 years ago, was travelling the world and now felt like growing my own food as well. I think it's the most important knowledge to keep and share with others, and to become more and more independent of all the things we were told that we need in life.
    When the only thing we want ad need, is to live a life a peaceful life in, and with nature, protect it, nourish it, and grow our own food. It all comes back to us. I experienced the same thing, how less things are worth. But at least I didn't have to pay to get rid of them, but it makes me think twice what I buy. Being a minimalist and to have good systems makes your life much easier and more enjoyable. I love it also that you teach people how to do that, thats amazing! Much love to you 🌱

The Lord had put this strongly to grow my own food over my spirit since 2016..am right now waiting for His restoration after a 7 years of wilderness to be made prepared and ready to serve Him... looking forward to reach out to you to get some advices from you.

The story you are telling of a longing for simpler living and getting back to the basics of living is a familiar one to me. I had a longing for those things back in my 30s and of course, now in my later years, I regret not dropping everything and going for it. You are an inspiration and I look forward to following your journey.

      Thank you! I'm sorry they called the city on you. That is so frustrating! If you decide to take the tower plunge there is a link in my videos and I help along the way. They are a great way to bypass most HOA's because they are technically a planter not a "garden".

    I am moving to a cabin in Eastern KY. Ironically it’s very similar to the cabin I just sold closer to Nashville, but a much better layout and much smaller yard and price. It needs work, but it will be done with cash instead of just never being done because it’s unaffordable.

    • @theaeroponictowerchannel
      @theaeroponictowerchannel  ปีที่แล้ว

      Congratulations! One of the things I also let go of was the idea of a perfectly finished home. This cabin has some wonky things. It has some unfinished aspects and missing door knobs....because we can't find a replacement that fits....but those things don't really matter. I agree affordable and slowly finished is way better!

    You made a huge impact on the quality of life for your family by scaling back. The reasoning behind your decision says a lot about what type of community you want to be surrounded by. My family and I sold everything and also moved into a camper while building a home and farm. We learned a lot of skills and most importantly, the art of living.

    Wow, you are a true inspiration to me and to many folks out there! We sold everything including our first and only house for 15 years. Now, we have been full-time rv dwellers/ modern pioneers for six years(and counting) since we left the sticks and bricks. We are waiting for the Lord's timing to return on a more permanent dwelling to start farming in pursuant to a "simple life"(for us) providing majority of our needs from our land. Stay blessed and a blessing to those who seeks for your guidance. Thank you for what you do and may the good Lord keep you and bless you for all the days ahead.

We have been travelling and living abroad for more than 20 years, chasing $$, chasing dreams that we 'thought we wanted', only to realise these dreams were not wholly our own. So we have brushed off our old habits and we are about to embark on a very new way of living. We are heading home to Australia after 14+ years living abroad, seeking to create our own small off grid home where we can live a more wholesome lifestlye.

      I went back and forth on the greenhouse thing for a few years. I almost bought one several times and prepped land to build one once. I just couldn't quite figure out in my head how to make it work to grow more food. A high tunnel can offer a lot of value in certain regions but a traditional greenhouse is actually pretty limiting in most regions. The deer don't mess with my towers. I assume it's because they make noise.
