One of his goals is to have a home that is completely off the grid. He envisions that all electricity, water, and food needs will be harvested from the land. He plans to have an extravagant vegetable and herb garden, grow hens and have a goat named Tina.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb admin_label=”Blurb 2″ url_new_window=”off” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”%%9%%” use_circle=”off” use_circle_border=”off” icon_placement=”top” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”center” use_icon_font_size=”off” background_color=”#f9f9f9″ use_border_color=”on” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px” _builder_version=”3.0.90″ border_color_all=”#d1d1d1″ border_width_all=”2px” animation=”off”]\n
