Our Journey back to Homesteading

“Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before. Then people who are not Christians will respect the way you live, and you will not need to depend on others."
-- 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12

A new Golf Cart

So over the last few months we keep adding more and more around our homestead. We have aquaponics over there, a barn over here, chickens and goats going down there. I even set up a deer feeder on the very back of the property for bringing in some deer for hunting season.

I’ve discovered that 10 acres is a lot of area to cover on foot. Especially when I often have to carry a couple hundred pounds of something to go with me. 100 pounds of corn for the deer feeder, a generator and wood for the chicken coop. It’s really been generally tough to get it all carried in a timely manner.

I thought about either an ATV or even better a UTV to get around the property and haul stuff. Unfortunately the majority of the time those are very expensive.

Luckily I just happened to come across a great deal from a company getting rid of a beautiful 48v Golf Cart. As you can see the company was “OZ Saferooms” they make a great above ground tornado shelter if you guys are interested. Anyway they were off loading their golf carts, even after putting new batteries in them for a hard to pass up price. It was less than 1/4th of the price of the UTV I wanted.

I still need to add a dump bed or something to the back so that I can haul stuff better, but this has made it incredibly easier.

This makes it much easier to get around the homestead.
