Real estate websites are good for finding vacant houses. Just try to find foreclosures that have been on the market for a few years. Idk how well that will work for ya in LA but its worth a try

It's land that doesnt have access to electricity, water/sewage, and is basically just overgrown forest on the mountain side. Some that I was looking at didn't even have road access. I'm assuming that's why its so cheap but for me none of those things are that detrimental.

A lot of govt solar panels are having gps trackers put in them, gotta be careful with stealing those.

http://www.landandfarm.com/ Mostly from that site.

Oh, and plastic syringes work a hell of a lot better than turkey basters.

Just use a search engine. There's a bunch of teks out there.

yeah, phalaris arundinacea is where its at. It grows all over, specially highways and places with bad soil. super easy to make. You can even make it while out camping with no elecricity.

I'm currently saving up to get 10-15 acres in SE TN. Land is super cheap out there, about 1k to 1.5k per acre. I'm down with pooling funds though and getting a larger plot of land. One of my friends is saving up for the same thing also. I was intending on using natural building, and having a few...

Me and a few friends are thinking about moving out to hawaii and doing a small primitive living group out there, anyone know of what the best islands are for wilderness squatting? Something that isn't tourist hiker central would be nice.

Both?

That's wonderful but just because you've been doing something for a long time doesn't mean your good at it or know all the viable methods. A lot of 'natural building' techniques and research are fairly new in a sense, old techniques mixed with modern knowledge.

If you read more you would've known that you have to have an airgap beneath the straw so water won't collect, and the lime plaster/mortar they used is breathable and vapor permeable. Meaning that water wont build up, which means less chance of mold. Also compared to all the carcinogens and other...

That's why you have all the walls have a waterproof membrane.

Do you remember which shop that was?

You should tell people to check out Idle No More also. http://www.idlenomore.com/

Pretty cool site, anyone else who is into natural building etc should give it a look. http://www.simondale.net/hobbit.htm

Peanut Butter, most kids on here seem to lack a lot of foresight and the ability to research on their own so excuse me for trying to be informative and helpful. If you actually have built some already what methods did you use? I'm interested in how you managed to make a 3 story one, from the...

Yeah, or that.

Something that deep would be unfeasible without industrial machinery. If you wanna go for more of a hobbit hole/diy typo thing then I'd suggest going out on forested BLM land, at least 20-25 miles from anytown (well maybe not that much but farther out the safer) and digging into a hill. Research...

Been wanting to make one for awhile. Has anyone else/any tips or ideas?

Hoosier Homegrown lol

That's the area code I grew up in.

Yo, I'm Roots. Train hopped, hitched and bike toured before, Bike Touring definitely my fav out of all of those. Living in Denver at a collective house atm, my friend is saving up for a van to rubber tramp in and I'm saving up for better touring gear. I mainly identify as an anarcho primivitist...
