Show Notes

Most people talk about growing their own food — but few truly understand what it takes to eat, plan, raise, and preserve through all four seasons. This is the complete roadmap for a one-year homestead cycle in the Caribbean: from droughts to floods, planting to preserving, and soil to soul.
What happens when the rain doesn’t come?
How do you store six months of cassava without a fridge?
And what does it take to build a system that keeps feeding you even if you get sick, lose power, or face a crisis?
If you’ve ever dreamed of true self-reliance — this is the deep dive you’ve been waiting for.
Would your system survive a hard year? Or just a good season?
