- Self-sufficient farming and gardening techniques
- Solar power installation and maintenance
- Water collection and filtration methods
- Off-grid food preservation options (canning, fermenting, dehydration)
- Constructing and maintaining off-grid shelters (tiny homes, yurts, earthships)
- Sustainable waste management practices
- Home remedies and natural medicine for common ailments
- Wild foraging and hunting skills
- Basic wilderness survival skills (fire building, shelter construction, navigation)
- Off-grid communication methods (shortwave radios, Morse code)
- DIY appliances and tools for off-grid living
- Sustainable living practices (permaculture, composting, recycling)
- Essential off-grid kitchen equipment and cooking techniques
- Emergency preparedness and disaster management
- Financial planning and budgeting for off-grid living.
Please feel free to include any topics along those lines. I’m sure if you’ve read to this point you get where I’m going.
Download Wikipedia and put it on a USB drive. Then buy a portable solar panel so you can charge some electronic device to view the wiki. There’s a lot of farming, gathering, hunting, etc knowledge on Wikipedia.
The text only download is way smaller than the media download, but the media may be worth it for identifying plants.
For anyone curious, here’s a link to all the different downloadable versions of wikipedia: https://wiki.kiwix.org/wiki/Content_in_all_languages
The English “all maxi” version is just over 100 GB, updated Aug 2023
