Homesteaders Library
Every homestead needs books, because the digital format is not reliable enough. In this small collection there are hundreds of titles that focus on natural living and the homesteader life. For me, I tend to lean into the mechanics’ manuals and the DIY stuff.

I want the roots to extend into the Earth, but I don’t want moles and armadillos ruining my morning. Solution: the barrel planter. I fit it with drain holes that allow the roots to extend into the Earth, and it allows the worms to enter the barrel. Excess water from the barrel is absorbed by adjacent plants. When the barrel starts to run dry, a storage reservoir below the dirt feeds the plants via two large wicks. I use the lid to collect rainwater and as a cover during spring freezes and through the winter season. Additionally, I suspend the lid above the barrel during the heat of the Missouri summers and surround the barrel with an insulator, like hay or mulch. If done correctly, this tiny barrel planter can provide greens all year long. The spinach, in the photo, survived the entire winter.

This powerful mini rig is set up at The Keys, lot #4 IndianRock.art Offgrid Tiny Home Site in southern Missouri. The Chuckwagon is one in a caravan of three micro-homes, two of which serve as sleeping quarters. There, the Chuckwagon is the heart of the operations, providing for secure, efficient, climate-controlled, yearlong food storage and preparation in a towable offgrid micro package. It wasn’t easy getting all of these awesome features onto such a small footprint, but she turned out in the end. Look for future posts highlighting cool features.

The more I practice perfecting a given space’ geometric harmony, the more likely God will utilize my works to help advance His purpose… in this moment and in the one that will follow.

I owe my skills to my master, David. It was 33 years ago this year, as his aspiring apprentice, when I began to learn the ways of finish carpentry.
