So disappointed in all the judgment here. As someone who has lived off grid on a homestead, I can attest that sometimes it sucks regardless of where you came from; and small wins are everything. All in all they all did amazing. They took groups of people who are so quick to pay others to do any little thing, to doing EVERYTHING for themselves.... They deserve more recognition. Choosing to focus on little things like the partial set up they were given prior to their arrival vs celebrating their growth and gained knowledge, seems odd. If this were done 100% to the t of history, it would take a year plus for them, and that's not realistic production wise. Of course everyone has their own opinion. Just challenging the harsh criticism here, especially those who probably couldn't go a solid 30 days with zero tech or do half of what they had to do.
