Going off-grid has a myriad of challenges, and this can be compounded for those who are looking to do so on a larger scale, such as an entire community.
Aside from providing power, water, sewage, and the other basic services many are accustomed to, there is also the issue of being able to grow enough food to be able to provide for everyone or at least make a big enough dent to reduce the need for any outside assistance.
“Each unit will support 2 acres of land and feed up to 150 people a complete diet every year.”
