Riley K.
Homesteader in a Warm Climate
"I had seen Takota’s videos on YouTube for a while during my path of trying to learn about homesteading and growing food and was impressed with many things about him and his work including his breadth of knowledge and demeanor.
Not only do I not live in Canada, I live in a tropical climate. But when I heard he was offering consulting I leaped at the chance. I wasn’t completely sure what to expect. In fact I wasn’t completely sure exactly what help I needed. I just knew I didn’t know a lot yet and didn’t know where to start.
First Takota helped me sort out my dreams and turned that into what I needed and in what order. As we moved forward he was a tremendous asset in helping me source and hire tradespeople, as well as how to best work with tradespeople, architects, contractors and even difficult neighbors. This even extended to him helping me work through and grow from my own reactions to some tough situations. At every turn I can turn to him for help when I need it.
Takota has already saved me way more money than he charged me by helping me move quickly on the best path forward in the best order, hire quality people and avoid costly mistakes.
Without Takota’s services I would likely just still be sitting on a pretty piece of property with no clue where to start. Or worse, fumbling about and learning by expensive trial and error as I slowly moved one step forward two steps back.
I am so grateful to have Takota and the team as an ongoing resource I can turn to as I continue to develop my dream homestead.
