What would you do?

What would you do or build or plant if you had about 5000 square meters of pristine land? Some of it has small trees on it, it has a creek (in winter river) running through it but the water us not drinkable (farm animals walking through it and grazing nearby).

I am asking the question because we )my wife, our two year old son, and I) recently bought a plot of land as described above. It’s completely off grid: no electricity, water, or sanitation available.

I will be documenting our progress and thought process, our learnings and failures (I am sure there will be a few) here. And I would love to hear from you what you know either from own experience or from researching.

It’s an exciting adventure and I am keen to share it with you. Follow Ecotri.be to get notified when there’s a new post!
