Must Have Off Grid Books 

Foxfire collection is a series of books that are great, for many different old time living techniques and ways of living. Most public libraries used to have hem, but they’re still available and I think they’re still being printed.

I love that you included your own personal notebook in your list of favorite books! 👍

Thanks for the great recommendations! Several of those titles were new to me.

Excellent choices I have to order some of those

Just subbed today, thought I already did. Great topic! Would love to read those in the pallet cabin in a rain storm.

I love your channel. It's so diverse.

Have you ever heard of the foxfire books. I got the set as a present and love them. The knowledge in them is priceless.

The second is owesome

Some interesting titles there, Josh. A couple I will be on the lookout for when I get some time to myself - crazy busy in the Postal Services right now, as you can imagine. Watching this on a break in the evening shift. A good book I can recommend is called ‘The Year Round Vegetable Gardener’ by Nikki Jabbour. I saw it in a book store few years ago and thought ‘Yeah, right - try that on the East Coast of Canada’. Then I read the synopsis and she lives right here in Nova Scotia! So I bought it. Some good ways to keep the veg coming all year round with some cheap and easy methods. If she can do it here you can do it almost anywhere, I would think. Anyway, gotta get back to sending folks Christmas parcels out - catch you later. 👍🏻

💓🎁Merry Christmas to you all, stay safe & keep doing what you do & live your best life🎁💓

TFS Josh! Interesting selection of books to read if you consider doing off grid living! :)

Tough old root here and this is a great video 👍 I am adding all of these to my must reads, thank you. PS Abebooks.com has been a good source of used books for me.

You can always check out your local library for books. I have read "Carrots love tomatoes" and even advised my sister to read it. These are all great suggestions! Stay warm. Love and hugs.

I don't want somebody else's scribble lmao and definitely agree my journal is my second brain

Have to buy that new don’t want other peoples scribbles lol . Love the channel.

Good list! Have you ever read the Foxfire series of books about Appalachian life? They're very informative and full of nice stories.

Josh, how is the wood stove doing and would you recommend it? Does the door seal enough to be used inside a small cabin? I found a stove that I really want at tinywoodstoves.com called the Dwarf but its expensive and I have to pay now and wait 2 months and hope they deliver. Makes me a little reserved...I dont like that type of purchasing system. But I do feel like its an outstanding stove. I'm thinking about getting something else that I can buy and receive and install now.

When my third son was little and if the wind blew across a poison ivy plant, he would break out from it. My mother told me to put a teaspoon of cream of tartar in a cup of water and have him drink it. The mixture helped with him having a shorter time with his episode.

I bought a book that is called "The Encyclopedia of Country Living" by Carla Emery. She has since passed away, but it does keep being updated by her family. A very good book for great down to earth information. Recipes, like how to make your own Baking Powder, to making your own soap. Some of the recipes are even Vegan too. A lot of the recipes are from people like us who are very interested in the whole process and also want to share their experiences too. You all may want to look into one of them too. Merry Christmas.

Where can i find a man like you in his 50's, single in TN?😅
