Idaho is also comfortably red
And I'm not talking about indians
lol
What do you guys think is a reasonable price? Also keep in mind in eastern Oregon/eastern Washington and 90% of Idaho is sage brush wasteland
No trees
It is an eye sore imo
i agree
we need trees, we have to have lumber for our buildings, firewood and anything else we need
i would say around $5k per acre
you wouldnt want to cut down wood on your own property because those trees are 20 plus years old and all you need is a couple of 2x4s
the tree is worth more as a part of the land and protection
as far as price per acre i think its more important to look at density and plan how many people can one day live on that piece of land and deciding from there on the land
well we could ride out to the outskirts of our land to gather our firewood
so youd log land that cost lets say 2-5k per acre making it worthless to get wood for building
instead of buying logs from a logger that will not be deveolping his land
as far as firewood you can collect fallen trees in national forests and BLM land which will likely be near by..its a lot of work however
one of the reasons i am against logging out own property is because logging is a pure white man's honest living in the US and they know way more than i ever could hope to and we should support these people and they will proviude necessary services for us better than we could for ourselves
i can see that, that's a good reason
there is alot that we can get from the outside and support wholly white owned enterprises that have been in the family for generations type...basically all building materials are this way im from a diverse area yet the lumberyards all staff white people whereas big places like home depot are very hit and miss
there are also many ways to barter with these people...they probably wont be great with computers or even finances so we would have people that could help modernize their businesses or do their taxes etc. and receive a similar benefit on the products we need
exactly there are a lot like you im just spit balling ...not really my specialty but you get the ideajust simple side jobs that would strengthen our suppliers and the community
that sounds good, I like that
For firewood look into setting up coppice and pollards for your trees.
endless firewood without killing the trees
Grow it out a little older and you can likely get some good fence posts out of them
Does anyone know the legality of having 1 person buy land, 10 acres for example, establishing a main road, then having a community of people all build several houses together, then selling each house with a small bit of land to each family/person, but it being surrounded by the 1st guys property? Sorry if it doesnt make sense.
Well, for a sustainable permaculture a family of 8 needs 5 acres
Also im not sure if its provincial or municipal but many places only allow 1 house per 100 acres to "protect the environmeng"
Also housing laws may require each place to have their own water and electrical
Many municipal laws in place may prevent commune type scenarios
Been watching a lot of homestead house build videos and it seems as if $1,500 in solar panels pretty much covers 1 house
I cant imagine youd be forced to have electricity
Its a thing where i live
Its illegal to not have electro
who's gonna lead the thing? who will be the face
We're not a political movement
we need a king though
We don't have a leader, were a community
hm....who will buy the property?
We all will
