What Does It Mean To Live Off The Grid?<\/h2>\n

Notes:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Living off the grid means your home is not physically connected to utilities by pipes, cables, or wires. You get access to tech that produces a renewable resource via a solar panel, battery<\/a>, and mini hydro-power station.<\/p>\n

Some homeowners with off-the-grid homes even grow their food by having vegetable gardens and keeping a few animals like cows and chickens<\/a> for milk and eggs. <\/p>\n
