After seven years of deep south living, we are considering moving our homestead to southern Oregon.
A move is going to mean a lot of things, for one, starting over with our gardens, composts, and livestock. It means getting rid of a lot of stuff and finding new employment. There is also the change of environment, as well as a 4,000 ft change in elevation!
But it also means something else. The homestead property we are looking into is more independent. Unlike where we live, the Oregon property is on a well, and as of now the only power into the property is by generator or solar, which promises true off-grid living. It also means a much smaller house payment, and the opportunity to be mortgage free in just a few years.
It will take months before we can really move forward with any plan to leave our current area, but we are excited by the prospect of a new adventure.
Stay tuned!
