Jonathan & Ashley Longnecker and their 4 kids are building naturally and sustainably off-grid in Cochise County, Arizona providing wholesome entertainment and useful educational resources for those interested in getting back to nature, spending more time with their family, and learning to be more self sufficient. We're sharing our story while we create a desert homestead from the ground up using natural building methods and permaculture inspired designs. Join us on our journey to a sustainable homesteading oasis in the desert with new videos every Saturday!
