Rick Austin (the Survivalist Gardener) and his wife, Survivor Jane left their high paying corporate jobs 12 years ago to build and live in an off grid homestead retreat. Using innovative techniques, they grow all their own food, and raise 90 unconventional livestock animals that provide them with all their food, on less than two acres of land, without using pesticide, fertilizer, GMOs or weed killers.

This channel is the ongoing story, of living in an off grid homestead, dealing with the problems that come up, and showcasing innovative tips and tricks on how to maintain and build your own off grid homestead.

This channel is dedicated to all those people, everywhere, who wish to take responsibility for their own well-being, and for the well-being of their families. Whether you call yourself a homesteader, a “prepper”, a survivalist, or something else, this channel will help those of you who wish to be self-sufficient, by getting off the power grid, the work grid, the financial grid and the industrial food grid, so that you will be able to provide an abundant supply of good healthy food for yourself and your family, in good times and in bad.
