@goodlifegavin: 10 months ago I moved to Kern County, California and started building a tiny cabin on my family’s 17-acre property 45 minutes east of Bakersfield . Now I have 30 days to finish the interior and turn this off-grid cabin into a home. I’m not a professional builder. I’m just learning as I go, working with my hands, and documenting what it looks like to build a new life in rural California. This is Day 1. Watch this become home. #offgrid #bakersfield #kerncounty #homestead #tinycabin
What is kern county, California? That’s not a place, it’s an area. I’ve always wondered why people not from here call all of it kern county. Idk a single other place where people completely ignore the cities and just call all of it by the county name. Are you in Twin Oaks? Caliente? Glennville? Tehachapi? Lake Isabella? Kernville? Posey? Keene? Bear Valley Springs?

Hi , I have land in tehachapi. I noticed the cabin is on cinder block footings. Did you have to consult with the city about building it ? I’m hoping to mimic your style but unsure on how to start
