Chicken house episode #4. See other episodes in the series here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9MT882vr184yT7MthZWxMvWmZSw1-DJP&si=-34jX2UQ9OmCckQw

This episode we finish the roof structure and add some beautiful Yakisugi burnt wooden boards to make a durable, long lasting roof finish. We also harvest my Autumn vegetables, cook some wild meat in a soil pit, I give brith to a beautiful baby boy in the mountains, experience nearly 100 Griffon vultures fly a few meters above our heads and of course more mesmerising wildlife cam footage… with one very special animal you’ll have to wait until the end of the video to see!

Our story:
We are Emilia, Robbie & Sage, we left our city lives behind and moved to the top of a mountain in Spain, to live off-grid. We’ve spent four years alone, renovating an old stone house and restoring the abandoned land. Join us as we continue to build our off-grid homestead, and become self-sufficient from the land.
