Starting a Homestead in AUS UPDATE + Owner Builder Plans 

Love your videos. 30 years ago my husband with help of a friend he built a 5 x 2 home 🏠 it took 12 months. Good on you doing it. You are setting your family up for a wonderful future ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

He was so patient, good job

2 Bedroom house with 2 kids will be interesting ........ they only get older, and much much bigger, so credit to you if it works!

This is all sounding very exciting.

Hi Tom, just to throw a stick into your spokes mate, I just thought, with the kitchen window, why not try and scrounge up a secondhand bay window so you can grow herbs right in the kitchen and will put an amazing smell throughout the house. Just a thought buddy. Seeya Rob

It will be a fun though challenging adventure and you will learn so much. By time you use every mm of the land the best way you will be able to do so much. But I agree with you that "local sufficiency" is also good so choose to support others nearby for the things it's not practical to grow yourself. Look forward to seeing your journey.

We built our house with natural brown bricks and used a eucalyptus colour for our garage door and weatherboard facade. The colours have stood the test of time and are sympathetic to the environment. BTW those carrots looked amazing!

Lovin the walk in pantry, I'm excited to see it... and it's not even mine. lol

Have you organised to get your power box put in? Distribution box can go in before the foundations I believe

Beano thinks he's ready to be hosting Homestead On The Rock! 😂

You have a little cute helpet😂

Look at homeopathy for your hayfever and other basic health care. I used to suffer 9 months of the year, now it just a few weeks.

Try getting some local raw honey take a tbls every day, must be from your area. This is what I've heard, do your own research also 😊
