  Descrição

  Alaska! Land of Wild beauty and rugged nature ! Are you up for the Challenge of living in a remote community in Northern Lynn Canal?
  
  My homestead which is located in one of the most beautiful places in Alaska ..
  
  Haines is small 2,500 people ..our economy is tourism and fishing .. The weather is dramatic can be amazingly beautiful as well as temperamental and sometimes wicked !!!
  
  My house sits on the side of a mountain one mile from downtown Haines .. I have 2.5 acres which I am working on creating sustainable living.. A large sunny lot south facing gives me a great growing potential .
  I have a 1 bedroom 2 bath house with sun room and a small studio ..I have built my place in last 10 years and it has full amenities ... shower, septic, electric ...I have paddle boards and bikes to use and there is hiking right out my door ... It has a private feel and beautiful view.
  Camping on property with electricity and access to house with balanced meals and necessary gear provided .
  Internet is accessible at the library 1 mile away .
  Cellular service works at my property ..
  My homestead gardens and projects are all for personal use .. I do not sell or produce commercially..
  My idea is to work toward sustainable living and learning how to create systems that I can operate with my own technology..
  
  
  Learning from Native community members how they have put up food for survival.
  As well as how much food is necessary to be sustainable and share with the community?
  
  What foods I can grow to put up for drying and canning ?
  Goals of subsistence living over the long winters by creating a greenhouse that can produce in the side seasons
  
  There are always projects here :on my Homestead …homestead like :
  
  house maintenance / upgrades
  firewood projects ,
  permaculture gardening, weeding invasive plants , subsistence gathering , putting up fish berries, canning and smoking fish many sustainable living skills .
  I’ve been working on self watering systems for my gardens via a spring on my property.
  
  We love making group meals (food Provided)
  Adventures in the area .
  Hiking ( mountain ) directly behind my house , campfires and living peacefully with the wildlife including bears and moose eagles and all the other small critters who coexist in this wild natural environment..
  
  Before messaging me please look into what it takes to get to Haines Alaska .
  It can be challenging and expensive.
  You can drive in Via BC & Yukon Canada or fly to Juneau then ferry (Alaska Marine Highway). Or fly (Alaska Seaplanes)
  to Haines.
  This may include overnight in Juneau because of ferry schedules ...
  
  Be prepared to be out in the elements rain or shine . We work up to 5 hours a day 5 days a week .. Plenty of time for adventure in the long Alaskan day’s
  
  Some Amenities provided: Electricity
  Showers,
  Laundry
