This is a good list. Have you considered using solar panels? Also, how do you get water? THIS is also an underrated thread. by the way.

how do you get money?
where do you live?
i would do it but my city is shitty
i ony have fruit trees but cant have pets or animals also im a neet so i can't pay for anything

>>37219715
I'm pretty sure you can't eat animals past a certain age. You've got to slaughter it young or not at all
>>
how do you pay rent to your landlord if you are unemployed and self sustaining?

>Have you considered using solar panels?
I have thought about it but never looked into it

>Also, how do you get water?
From the tap, I believe the water bill is the same as the electricity bill but it's barely anything. If not I have lots of access to spring water

fair enough, it isn't really self sustaining if you are sustained by the society's welfare system. Not saying it's bad, but it is mislabeled.

I was born into a farming family, grandpa and grandma had a farm
however since my mom moved so much I never stayed in one place and never got to experience the farming life. grandpa was a grumpy old fart anyway
Now he's too old to work so my oldest cousin has taken over since he lived on that farm his entire life, most of the work is automated nowadays anyway

>landlord
Yeah you should probably buy your only land as soon as possible, even if it's just a few acres.

you're right, but I said "trying" to self sustain. Maybe one day I will

If you're a norwegie I don't think solar is all that great. I live in Mississippi and didn't like solar after running the numbers.

I'd recomment homebrew. For whatever reason yuros seem to have better access to plastic shit than americans. I like stainless as much as the next burger but plastic just has that cool space age aesthetic. Get a polypropylene container and slap a water heating element or two in it and do brew in a bag. I was recently reading about the weird yeast used in Norway and will be ordering some to play with soon. You might get lucky and find an old timer who could share his yeast encrusted sticks with you for legit viking beer. Just use the yeast though because I'm sure real viking beer tastes like shit.

I don't have a green house but I make little hoops and wrap in LDPE so I can keep growing my kale and broccoli through the winter. It doesn't snow much here. Venison is some of the best eating you can git, you should try killing an elk/reindeer/moose/whatever kind of tree dogs you have over there.

Money doesn't taste very good or provide many calories. You are a slave, and not even financially independent like most neets are. Pathetic.
