Can We Build Our Off Grid Cabin With This? | Testing Soil For Clay Content

For our off-grid cabin build, we need to make sure we have just the right combination of materials to make the sturdiest walls possible. I perform a jar test to find out what are clay to sand ratio is, as well as make bricks to get a feel for the right combinations.

We are Jim and Jessica, a husband and wife team who decided to make the leap from living the city life to an off-grid homestead. We have no training in carpentry or electrical work. We've come armed only with two Permaculture Design Certificates and a whole lot of determination.

Join us on our journey to move beyond a sustainable lifestyle into a regenerative one. We chose to live in the desert because we love the location and we wanted the challenge of bringing this desert landscape into productive abundance.
