PEACE OF MIND ON FULLY SUSTAINABLE 26 ACRES

In the event of a global/regional disaster would you be better off being able to grow your own food, have a secure method of storing your own water and be able to generate power without depending on a complex network of power transmission systems? These 26 acres in the rural Ozark Mountain plateau in north central Arkansas can allow for all of that. The ground is fertile with room for grazing livestock and an ample woodlot for heating wood and lumber.

Water is a key component of sustainability. This end of road property boasts three springs at the head of Neilon Creek and a pond that is already stocked with bass. There is a drilled well that can be run off a solar system. One spring is developed and feeds underground storage tanks as well as the greenhouse, the garden, and an underground concrete bunker via buried water lines, without the need for electricity.

Electricity is a modern comfort that has mostly become a necessity, but the grid can fail you at the most inopportune times. Power lines run along the north boundary of property and are available if you want them. The barn is wired for electricity from the grid but has a small solar back-up system. The greenhouse and chicken house have independent solar systems that also supplies power to the bunker.

You don’t need to worry about storms with the fully livable underground concrete bunker. The bunker was professionally installed and is complete with kitchen and bath which are supported by a septic system and underground piped supply of spring water. Spring water can be used to supply a hydro plant for electrical generation to recharge the two battery banks. Bunker has 8 inch poured concrete walls, an air filtration system and hidden storage. Build a house over the bunker and use it as a basement.

Embrace a radical turn toward self-reliance and small-scale sustainability! The green house is a framed construction with poly-carbonate walls. It is 480 sq ft and has a gravity flow water system from one of the springs with a well for back-up. It is powered from the solar panels for the automatic windows and vents and for the fans. Next door is a chicken house and a dedicated garden area. The garden is inside a 7-foot fence to keep wildlife at bay and is 100’ by 35’. It has an irrigation system supplied by underground piping from a spring. Study permaculture and forge a deeper relationship with the systems of production that your life depends on.

The barn is 24 feet wide and 50 feet long and 12 feet tall sitting on a 6-inch-thick slab of concrete. There is a 2000-gallon underground room for storage at the back of the barn and it has lean-tos at each end for storage of equipment or an RV. The back sixteen feet of the barn has been divided off into a separate room. Barn is a modern metal construction with 26-gauge steel panels.

“We are on the cusp of a major transition in America, and it just makes sense that if you are producing your own food, water, power—you are probably going to make it through.”
