    I don’t have one, but I have collected several links about them.

    They are also called “pit gardens” so if you do searches that will turn up many more links about them.

    Here is a link to the links about them I have collected over time.

    I have been asking myself these same questions.. I quit my job and started producing food. A job only gives you money, and soon food will be more valuable than money, I put 5 years of food on the shelf for the first trick, next I went off grid with electricity ( took me 10 years to do that ). Now I am ramping up food production, but not just easy food production, I am making my own fertilizer to feed the plants, and I am growing tree hay to feed chickens I don’t have yet. I have been planning this for years, and I am still learning.

    Years ago I got out of debt, and then I have looked a different businesses. I have decided that I work for food. And I mean that literally, now I am growing high calorie crops that will help me feed chickens when I get them. My goal is to have 2 years of chicken food stored from the food I produce here, then buy chickens then can the chickens and have them on the shelf.

    It is most important that you get right with God before embarking on any task, as the good book says those who do not lay a proper foundation are building on sand, and it will all wash away when the storm comes.

    So many do not see what is coming, and is almost here…

    I adore the video you reference at the top of this thread, his wood work is amazing, looks like he is prepping for the big one.

    I have 4 K of Solar been off grid for a year. Glad you are getting your solar online.

    I have started to be impressed with the Chinese green houses, I was thinking a combo of a pit garden with a Chinese garden may be just the ticket…. for colder zones.
