Off-the-grid Skills
A list of some skills you’ll need if you wish to live off-the-grid:
- Gardening/farming
- Building
- Hunting/fishing
- Canning/smoking/drying
- Sewing/tanning/weaving
I’d add that you definitely need cooking/baking (fairly obviously) and soapmaking (if you want to be clean). Brewing too would not go amiss—after all, man does not live by bread alone.
Granted, a life of subsistence farming wouldn’t be terribly exciting or fun. Well, except for the excitement of droughts and crop failures.
