Mark is the creator of the Modern Rural Civilian channel, creating content about his ongoing DIY journey to design and build his dream "off grid" property and homestead. In the summer of 2021 Mark and his fiancé Heather sold everything they owned to buy bare, rural acreage in the mountains of Idaho. Many people talk about their desire to detach and build their own oasis, to become more self sufficient, but few actually take the required actions. Mark's channel shares the successes and failures quite openly, providing insight in to what the lifestyle actually requires.
In this episode, Dave and Mark discuss the journey of homesteading, the importance of food in rural living, and the art of cooking. Mark shares his experiences growing up with food, his culinary career, and the transition to off-grid living. They explore food preservation techniques, the significance of community involvement in food production, and the role of hunting in modern life. Mark emphasizes the value of understanding food sources and the skills necessary for a sustainable lifestyle, while also highlighting the joy of cooking and the fulfillment that comes from growing and preparing one's own food.
