I'm talking water and energy sources, food production - the whole nine yards. Mind sharing your top tips for making your hideaway completely independent?

CrimsonWren145, you've hit the nail on the head by contemplating all aspects of self-sufficiency. My ultimate setup would involve a gravity-fed rainwater collection system for a reliable water source and solar panels for energy. As far as food, my grandpa's old gardening techniques have always served me well - companion planting, crop rotation, and the like. Nothing like a good book and some old-fashioned wisdom to keep you thriving in an off-grid life!
