    This Man Is Exactly what the Government doesn't want you to become.
    Independent living off your own grown food, on your own land.
    Lives on his own solar power, soon to be hydropower aswell.
    He simply brought his land and lives as a free man, absolutely priceless.

    You don't have to impress you.

    What a wonderfully rich life Kevin leads. He really does have it all (almost....I am sure a good woman is on her way to him). That aside, the planning laws and redistribution of land must be changed and implimented in the UK. Land ownership is out of reach for most people and corporate/historical titled and family possession is not fit for the 21st century. Many young and older people want to live in different ways and without access to European cheap land since Brexit, UK soil needs to be redistributed much more fairly and openly. Being free to build your own dwelling without all of the restrictions and planning barriers also needs to be rethought. Is there a movement in the UK to support/advocate for these changes?

    Living a beautiful life. I’d love to live that way. Happier and much healthier life. It’s the price of the land and restrictions put on a person via corrupt councils. Also lack of skills and tools. Kevin would be a brilliant friend to have.

    All good luck to Kevin and his life in the Woods. He is no burden to anyone and yet the jobsworths of this Country want to stop this way of life. He is not harming anyone, no wonder that this Country is broken and will never recover.

    Term I use is "being amongst trees" .. I do outdoor work for various people in wales and a single special feature is that there are a lot of people with little wealth but they have an acre or 3 or 7 and maybe with some woodland .. so it's humble people and nature together .. its a great combo

    What a lovely man. He's the only one ive watched eho actually came out and said it's hard work. He has everything he needs. I do hope he finds a human partner some day who he will not need to change his life for. He might need a hut for the washing machine. Who like to do laundry in the rain 😊. Well done kevin, lovely place. I think everyone of us can feel the pull of nature away from modern life and convenience.

    Kevin, I totally get it! You are living my dream. I am your age and looking for a piece of land to do exactly what you are doing. Well done 👍. I could go on and on… fantastic way of life, stay safe, stay well and stay happy

      Hi Sarah, I just read your comment I’m working on a program with a partner to show people how to do this, but effectively you can start off with a minimum of 12.5 acres (5 ha) and you will be able to get the ball rolling if you have a mind to set up a small holding. there’s more to it than just that, but that is the starting point. We are 2/3 of the way through proving our system and will set up a youtube channel and podcast soon. Keep going you WILL Achieve your dreams 😊😊😊😊😊

    Great video ! Yes you very right our Gov's don't like people like us " I've been 100% off grid for about 11 years now & would never trade my Freedom for anything , Piece quiet & just take in life with "Mother Nature " Cool to see & he grows his own tobacco too ! I grew my own in northern Canada & it grows well but like he said it is a lot of work"

    I'm on the west coast of the USA, Near eugene, Oregon. More shade than sunlight, 12ftx16ft cabin I've lived in for 4 years, just doubled the size last summer.
    Anyway, Thank you for showing your ways and sharing the view! We benefit deeply in living so close to the land.

    My mate tried this and natural england came for him, ordered him to move his static caravan off the land even tho he owned it outright and threatened court ect, he ended up having to sell up

    I only watch into 3.5 mins.....
    He said about "my time" but working harder.....
    Working harder for his self support......
    Not getting up in morning to work for government.....
    I so see his ways, I'm turning 50 soon and I'm sick of working for others not work for your self.
    His spot is no penthouse, but who cares....
    I bet he's living a better life than most.
    Good on you chap..... fantastic (no words....only dreams to me)

    This is a lovely way to live, and fair play to this man for achieving his dreams. Having said that, whilst he seems a nice man, there does appear to be some form of arrogance whilst that might come as a shock to some, he seems to be suggesting the way he lives is the best way, its the right way.... especially when he starts saying one step back to one step forward..... actually I could not lead his life because I am useless with my hands, he has man made the majority of his things, not everyone has that gift, he does accept he is fortunate, which he is, but he has had to work for it no doubt about that, but not everyone is blessed with that talent, so my way of living might be seen to him as extreme, but I think it is important to understand the value that EVERYONE brings to the world, not just one way of living...... Good for him though again for achieving his dreams, and leading a life that he is happy with. :)
