You are right of course - people use the words "self-sufficiency" and think of a TV gardening show. In my climate, off-grid life without animal husbandry would be impossible, and they are making all efforts to de-legitimize the way of life.

My suggestions in response to your comments would be: buy a hand winch now, as well as rainwater collection systems. At the very least, small off-grid power for charging tools. Begin to lean how to live with animals. Think strategically about how you will navigate changing landscapes in the law.

And join me on the blog of course. It's free to read.

Here is an example, discussing what animal husbandry really means.
