The Good of the Land

About The Good of the Land

Welcome, friends!  We're Justin and Amy, and we decided to share our journey toward self-sufficiency by documenting our progress building a homestead on our new property!  We upload at least 1 video a week, with the hope of ultimately being able to provide daily content.  We are building our tiny house and the infrastructure for our homestead on 20 acres in the pine woods of East Texas.  Equipped with the right tools and the right mindset, we hope to encourage and entertain others interested in a lifestyle of independent simplicity. We left our city life in Dallas 7 years ago, and are excited to have you join us as we share our experiences and what we've learned so far.

About us: Justin is a certified collision repair technician and all-around craftsman, with experience in welding, fabrication, gardening, butchering, and hunting. Amy is a professional photographer and graphic artist, working towards a second bachelor's degree in Chemistry, with plans to pursue a doctoral degree.
