HOW WE GOT STARTED WITH OFF GRID LIVING
During the days of skyrocketing interest rates in the late 1980s, my wife, Jane, and I realized that our dream of owning a home was slipping away. For the first eight years of our marriage, we lived in a rented house in Norwich, Ontario, and we just couldn't save fast enough to buy our own place. Then, a friend gave us a box of 80 back issues of old homesteading magazines like Mother Earth News and Harrowsmith. That box opened up a whole new world for us. Reading those magazines, we realized other people had turned to living off the grid and we figured we could too.
We bought 20 acres of land and built our own house. We then looked at renewable energy options and chose wind and solar as our primary energy.
