In this weeks episode we travel into the High Sierra region of California to visit a dynamic young family who are living big in a yurt home on their 30 acre homestead / permaculture property.

Traditionally used by nomads in Central Asia, yurts are much less common in the west, however these well insulated, portable structures are certainly starting to become a popular option amongst those seeking an affordable, alternative home.

Brett and Beth together with their son Sequoia have established a beautiful lifestyle in their yurt and on their land, where they grow food, live (almost) off the grid and are working on regenerating the land through permaculture.
The couple also have the benefit of working from home as educators in permaculture and homesteading though their website: highsierrapermaculture.com/

I wish more people would understand that Yurt originates from Mongolia and we call it “Ger”. We have been using it forever. Most Mongolians use it to this day. My grandma have one and I grew up in it with her. At that time I didn’t realize how special it was. I am glad people are finding our ger(yurt) super efficient.

My wife and I chose not to have children, however, if we had done it differently, we most definitely would have wanted to do something like this for our child. I think this is so important, especially in today's throw-away society, to know what is necessary to live a fruitful life. I believe I would homeschool as long as it made my child feel fulfilled. I realize that maybe at a certain age, a child might want something else as far as friends and such, but as I've watched many KZfaq channels on different styles of living and raising families, I believe we are coming back around to what's important not only for us as humans, but for the earth and sustaining a lifestyle that is conducive to giving back to the earth and taking care of it as it takes care of us. My wife is great about buying second hand, and recycling which helps us to not only care for the earth but to save money. We love what this couple has done and as we near retirement, we will be able to sell our home and live a much smaller life with a smaller footprint. These videos inspire and excite us! We have lived tiny before, but as our parents have gotten older, they needed to be close to family which is why we have a house/duplex at this point, so they can have a place to live and still provide all of us with privacy. I'm not trying to write a book here, so I will close by wishing all the best to this amazing family and thanking them for sharing their lives with us!

Most of us need to think in this way and make it a reality...... Awesome

This whole reclamation idea is the way to go. It keeps useful material out of the landfills, and it makes building a home more affordable. I am looking at that kitchen and thinking that it would have been a crime to toss it all into the dumpster. Good cabinets and counters, double sinks, an island. All useful and much needed. Think about it; all over North America people are renovating or tearing down buildings. And all that is headed into landfill. What about recycling the good stuff? A decent one room condo is going for over $250 000.00 these days. And it took less than $50 000.00 to build this house. Think about it.

Habitat for humanity restore does just that. It takes donations of furniture and building supplies ie: cabinets, lights, sinks, doors, countertop, toilets.... and then sells them and uses the money to help others. And they pick up all you do is call and make an appointment and they come and pick it up whatever your getting rid of. It counts as a donation to shop there so you can also write off the stuff you buy in your taxes 👍🏻 and you keep good stuff from rotting in the dump. I’ve found so really great stuff for a fraction of what I would have paid in store

Sandra Nelson I have reclaimed a lot of stuff over the years. Keep in mind that reclaimed materials and furniture can be very economical, and in some cases older stuff that is reclaimed is a lot better than newer things. But, the romance of reclaiming stuff fades for many people when faced with the time investiture need to make reclaimed materials actually work for you. There is an enormous time investment that is required.

I love homes like this where everything in it has a story. That makes living there so special. And their son is growing up in a gorgeous environment. He will be able to live off the land and have an amazing life. What a beautiful family. We have an off grid property. Only 12 acres. But we are talking about possibly adding a few more acres. A man who has about 100 acres behind us has offered to sell us a little more land. I like the idea of having at least 20 acres but if we can get enough to have 25 that would be nice for my husband. He hunts. And I might try at some point. But I think the animals are so beautiful. We have a lot of deer and turkeys. hope we can have something as nice as this family one day. Thank you for making this video. Leslye

I think this is beautiful. The yurt is such a pleasing home size and shape and to put drywall and insulation is brilliant. They have great taste and truly have worked at making a very light on the land home. I just visited the Kogi Indians in Colombia who have a very strong belief about being good to the earth. Their houses are similar and they garden in a similar way. No livestock or really big torn up tracts. If they were able to afford 30 acres in rural CA (which is no where near the price of the crappiest home in the SF Bay Area), then more power to them. They are protecting and being great stewards and that is likely why they had the opportunity. Bless you both!! I'd love to learn more about your life.

They should line the walls with tapestry rugs and make it really a beautiful showcase the way the Mongolians do! Just love yurts! They are amazing!!!! So beautiful and easy to setup with little need for much and everything is typically cosmetic so it's very simple to do especially with nomadic farming. 💚💚💚💚💚💚stay green fingered 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚 PS I would consider figuring out a way to offer heated flooring if you plan to stay put in one spot, only if that's an option. But for basic nomadic living that wouldn't work too easily unless the flooring could also be disassembled and reassembled every move. But it would be worth the luxury to have better heating especially in this cold climate.

I am a retired builder,, [ not by choice, retired per SS physicians unfortunately stroke/tumors/neuropathy in rt foot] . I have remodeled many many homes and used thrift stores, 2nd hand stores dump, even found great items in other people's trash being tossed out. I love the way you designed the home, addition, land around you & most of all besides the 30 acres my other fav is the kitchen layout Beth designed. Wow, that is a kitchen to die for. my ex girlfriend and I did one large project in Northport Long Island New York together. We remodeled an old 5 story rooming house on Main st near the ocean. It had 37 rooms I believe in it when we started tearing down walls etc Together we laid out/designed 7 seven fully brand new condos/apartments. Getting kitchen/bath cabinets from others who were remodeling all over Long Island. What a challenge but what a result. It took me & couple helpers almost 11 months to finish. We did soup to nuts. Your kitchen reminds me of the nicest 2 bedroom one we built. All of your furnishings too bring back so many good memories for me, you Both have great taste. I applaud you Both for the Beautiful home you've created especially for your son to grow up and learn all you are teaching him. More folks should have your outlook & attitude, it would be a much nicer world. Good Luck God/Buddha Bless you. Peace to you. Stay Healthy Happy & Safe.

I think most people don't use yurts permanently because they aren't meant to be permanent structures, they breakdown within a couple years. So you have to replace and repair often. Making them more work and expense in the long run.
@Well_possibly

Since they are made to be easily taken down and relocated, it is possible people are concerned thieves might haul it away. I don't like that you can't use the windows as emergency exits, and yurts usually only have one exit door. Oddly, people tend to put their wood burning stove next to the door, too!

People live in ramshakle houses all over the US. Visit upstate NY, West Virginia, or any other rural part of the US. It's not really an unusual way to live. I wish they had forgone toxic drywall and insulation and opted for a natural hay insulation solution and clay walls. I also want to add that one can definitely live frugally and minimally in cities, towns and the countryside without having to resort to this sort of "build it from scratch and escape society" living. Sometimes working with what you already have is best. I feel like they were the kind of people who bragged about not having a TV while watching netflix on their wi-fi in their city days. :-/

@@brandyatracey3003 Rest assured there is a trust fund involved. It's the same as people purchasing brand new teslas and claiming they are "green" as opposed to buying a used honda with mad gas milage, that doesn't demand new resources for production, and endevoring to walk or bike as much as possible. They could have bought a foreclosed house or cabin in the country with acreage and farmed that. Doing things from scratch is always the least sustainable method.

Not every tiny home makes me cry tears of joy, but a *Yurt* of all places, lol! This nest is soooo beautifully laid out inside with gorgeous woods & woven crafts all over,vand the glasswork, wow, nice job!!👍🏻😄 This place is absolutely STUNNING!! I knew someone 40 yrs ago who named her son Cedar Robin, so l think it's cute & cool that their wee one is named Sequoia!👍🏻 And this precious little angel is being treated to a very unforgettable childhood! As an older person, this is the way l think more kids would benefit being raised like. Less video games and more playing outside in nature. My goodness that kitchen area just screams to be used enjoyed every day -- it would certainly entice me into enjoying cooking + baking again, like l did when my kids were young. I just can't get over what a gem this beauty is...and BONUS: a beautiful Dog too!!❤️🐕❤️ 🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦
