About This Resource

Here on the homestead, everything we do is about more than just food, livestock, or resilience. It's about building a legacy that lasts for generations. Watch as we build this off-grid cabin to continue the legacy here at Riverbend. When our daughter and her new husband asked if they could build a life here on the property, close to family and the land, we were honored. Of course, the timing was tight. We had just three months until the wedding, but when has that ever stopped us. With evenings and weekends, a lot of determination, and help from the whole family, we built a 16 x 32 off-grid cabin in just 67 days. This cozy 500-square-foot home includes a small kitchen and living area, a bedroom, a bathroom, and a loft for extra space. It's heated by a wood stove and powered by a generator, with plans to add solar in the future.
