DIY WOOD FIRED Hot Tub (Spring Fed)

Welcome to our channel! We are Kaitlyn & Patrick. We recently bought 15 acres of RAW land in East Tennessee. I (Kaitlyn) quit my 9-5 job and we sold almost everything we owned 1.5 years ago to chase our dream of living a more sustainable lifestyle off-grid. We setup our solar system for all of our power needs and our rainwater collection/ filtration for all of our water needs. Soon we will break ground on our dream cabin in the mountains! Join us as we build out our dream off grid property!

This week we build a natural spring fed WOOD FIRED Hot Tub! Joins us as we walk you through the entire build process including heating it for the first time! As always, thanks for watching!
