Solo Building in Tropical Rain: The Off Grid Cabin Gets a New Kitchen

This week I finished building my off grid kitchen using only recycled materials. Between restoring our cabin, I’ve been harvesting tropical fruit, picking flowers and listening to the gentle sounds of the calming rain.

A few years ago, we began a journey to live a life in perfect harmony with nature. A life of caring for animals, growing fruit, planting trees, gardening, cooking, creating, building and learning to live with the land. In this time, nature has taught us more than we could have ever imagined. Our environmental films document the landscape, the lessons we’ve learnt and our work as regenerative farmers here on Bundjalung Country. We live on the land of the Arakwal and Minjungbal People of the Bundjalung Nation. We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Country we live on and recognise their continuing connection to the land and waters. We thank them for protecting this rainforest and its ecosystems since time immemorial.
