you could always declare it as private property
Don't have to become a city-state.
You buy some land, it is yours, you don't need to have the community on your land recognized.
and as a company or a "family"
Yeah, becoming a town would just allow the province and federal government to stick their noses in it.
i gtg brb
i liked suck their noses better
Hahaha
Live just far enough away from civilization that they don't care about building codes
Likely it will just be me and my husband building our dream
Which is a Food Forest and a permaculture farm.
Hopefully with a river on the land so we can build a hydro dam.
Living autonomously is normal for a large number of people
I don't see how this idea is ridiculous
Yeah, you just need to live in an unincorporated township, or outside of any municipality.
Internet and cell phones might become a luxury, but that is perfectly doable
Nah. You can easily build a tower and rent it to the telecom companies.
Or pay them to put a receiver or whatever
They're always looking to expand their coverage.
I guess, if I was doing that I would rather cut off most communication though
As I would be looking to sell walnuts and fruit to the rich folk in the city.
Make some rustic crafts to sell too?
Could.
I was thinking solid hardwood furniture.
And alcohol
Lol
Homebrew sells for a mint
Yeah. Maybe try to make a high proof spirit from maple water.
Especially exotic stuff so nut beer and apple vodka
That'd sell well here.
I'm thinking of growing hazelnut and walnuts.
Along with a variety of apples and beans.
Some berries, maybe cherries if I can find a tasty variety that is hardy enough.
I didn't know beans grow well up there
Haha, beans grow anywhere.
And here we're zone 5-6
Ok
So we can grow most things short of tropical fruits and citrus.
The beans are for the qualities they offer the soil though.
Not a cash crop.
