0:00
Before we leave here, there's a
0:02
statistic I heard a couple days ago that
0:05
concerned me. The people that come to
0:07
this elevation [music] and not just, you
0:11
know, barely make it, but actually
0:13
thrive
0:14
is 1%.
0:17
You've been here two [music] winners.
0:20
Are you guys the 1enters?
0:28
Ready, set, go.
0:31
>> All right, let's get to it. [music]
0:33
>> Are they going to make it under 10
0:34
minutes?
0:36
>> This is the part where we have to just
0:38
put our hands up. [music] We can't
0:40
really do anything more for these
0:41
homesteaders. We've done everything we
0:42
can to make them safe.
0:44
>> Hi, baby.
0:45
>> They got to show us that they can
0:47
evacuate and they can make the homestead
0:49
safe.
0:50
>> Yeah, absolutely.
0:51
>> I'm going to go turn the water on.
0:53
>> Okay. They might need to practice 10
0:55
[music] times before they get to the
0:57
point where they can evacuate quickly.
1:00
>> Right. Three in minutes.
1:02
>> Are you heading to the smoker?
1:04
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
1:08
Woo. Woo. On.
1:10
>> If you have [music] that fire break burn
1:13
and you turn on the soaker hose and the
1:14
whole thing becomes saturated with
1:16
[music] 2500 gallons.
1:18
>> All right. Come on in. I mean, you're
1:20
getting to a place where you can protect
1:23
[music] life and property.
1:24
>> All right, close it up.
1:25
>> Close it up
1:26
>> and leave this place with confidence.
1:28
>> Four minutes.
1:30
>> Okay, look at the dog.
1:31
>> It doesn't take much to be prepared. And
1:34
when it comes to your life, the life of
1:36
your animals,
1:37
>> they're going in the car.
1:38
>> The life of your property, just a little
1:40
bit of time, a little bit of prep work.
1:43
Looks like this.
1:46
>> There they come. Oh, here's the dog.
1:48
boy.
1:52
Up you go, buddy.
1:55
Okay, good boy. Stay.
1:58
Okay, give me some hand signals.
2:00
>> Yeah. Yeah.
2:01
>> Okay,
2:02
>> back it up.
2:02
>> Let's do it.
2:04
>> They're already backing up.
2:05
>> Yeah, they're doing so good.
2:08
>> This is a big deal.
2:10
Okay, they got to hook up the trailer.
2:12
>> That takes a sec.
2:14
>> You guys are at 7 minutes.
2:20
forward. Let's get out of here.
2:24
All right, you got it. Go back to your
2:26
left. Keep going.
2:33
8 and 1/2 [crying] minutes.
2:36
>> All right,
2:38
>> you did it.
2:40
Ashley wasn't sure we're going to make
2:42
it with the addition of the goats, but
2:44
we did it and [music] it felt much
2:47
safer.
2:48
>> Yeah, John,
2:49
>> we're much more able to get everything
2:51
ready and get out of [music] there
2:53
safely.
2:54
>> Nice. That's awesome.
2:56
>> This is the number one reason why
2:57
[music] we came to this homestead is how
2:59
do you defend it from forest fires and
3:01
what is that evacuation plan look like?
3:03
We just saw two homesteaders pulling
3:05
[music] out of here in less than 10
3:06
minutes with smiles on their faces. Do
3:09
you see in the practice evacuation
3:11
[music] that tension and how it rises
3:13
that intensifies in a real emergency,
3:15
right? So practicing and having [music]
3:17
a plan is what it's about. And you guys
3:19
are there. You did so good.
3:24
>> Later [music] that day,
3:26
>> how's it going, Stefania? It's going
3:28
great.
3:29
>> Misty brings out [music] the final
3:31
protective measure for the new garden.
3:33
>> The big fix for this homestead is a
3:35
perimeter fence.
3:36
>> Okay. I am not putting that in with just
3:40
[music] one day left. And I think it's
3:42
something that's so necessary
3:44
for so many reasons, right? Okay. Okay.
3:47
So, here's my temporary fix. Coyote
3:49
urine.
3:50
>> Don't ask how I [music] got it. Which is
3:52
safe for plants and animals alike. So, I
3:54
know you have dogs running around and
3:56
goats and chickens. [music]
3:57
>> Um, but literally it's a deterrent when
4:00
it comes to deer cuz they smell it
4:04
and they're like, "Nope, I'm out of
4:06
here. So, in the meantime, you're doing
4:08
this every couple of weeks. Sound good?
4:10
>> Yeah. Every couple of weeks. So, it's
4:11
just crystals and
4:13
>> Yeah. And I'm going to water it in, too.
4:15
And it's [music] easy as that.
4:16
>> Okay.
4:17
>> We're finally to a place where we can
4:19
confidently roll out of here. I can't
4:21
actually believe that we pulled it off
4:24
without my dad. But we did it. You have
4:27
the most epic garden that I've seen in
4:30
[music] a while.
4:32
This was all about how do we protect
4:34
this homestead, right? Do you think
4:36
we've achieved that in this week?
4:38
>> I would say mission accomplished with
4:40
that.
4:40
>> When [music] it comes to protection and
4:42
defense, we did it like with that
4:44
massive firereak burm [music] with that
4:46
2500galon water tank with the fire hose
4:49
fitting and then that whole burm [music]
4:51
just being saturated with the irrigation
4:53
line for the plants. I mean, it was
4:56
brutal, but somehow we pulled it off
4:58
[music] without my dad. 7 days ago,
5:02
Stefania and John's garden sprawl failed
5:04
to provide any food [music] for the
5:06
homestead, which itself stood highly
5:09
vulnerable to wildfires.
5:11
Today, their home is surrounded by a
5:14
massive fire break, which also doubles
5:16
as space for a centralized garden
5:19
covered by a mobile shade system. And
5:22
with the addition of a 2500galon water
5:24
tank, [music] their water supply has
5:26
also doubled, providing ample water for
5:29
both growing crops and fighting fires.
5:33
You changed our lives here. Like you
5:35
really did. You came here and you just
5:37
breathed new life into [music] the
5:38
place. being here, you showed us that in
5:41
different ways that like you believed in
5:42
us and you were encouraging and you had
5:44
good advice and you showed us how to use
5:46
tools and there's just so many different
5:48
things [music] that now that you've been
5:49
here like we feel more confident. We
5:51
feel more safe [music] and that's
5:54
everything to us right now cuz we were
5:56
just like really beaten down for a
5:58
while. [music] So, thank you Misty.
6:00
Seriously,
6:01
>> you're welcome. Yeah,
6:04
>> you're welcome. [music]
6:06
>> I moved around a lot through my life and
6:10
you know, the whole point is to put down
6:12
roots [music] and to find a place where
6:14
you can say, you know, I'm home. And you
6:18
know, technically we've been here, but
6:20
it just never felt like it could be a
6:22
reality.
6:24
The energy that this project with the
6:27
rainies has brought to the homestead has
6:30
really been a gamecher for us. We're
6:32
turning the corner. Things are looking
6:34
up and this is going to be my home. This
6:37
is my forever home. I'm excited to be
6:39
able to continue putting down roots
6:41
here.
6:44
>> I saw joy and and happiness in all the
6:48
hard work that we did.
6:50
>> Yeah. And so [music] I feel a lot better
6:52
about leaving California because I
6:55
really truly believe you have what it
6:56
takes to make it out here now.
6:58
>> Absolutely.
6:59
>> Yeah.
6:59
>> Yeah. It feels much more safe. We're
7:02
sustainable. We feel much more capable
7:05
even in the heat of the summer. Things
7:08
feel a lot better for homesteading here.
7:10
>> I agree. And I, you know, I hope our
7:11
paths do cross with Marty again because
7:13
I think, you know, it would be great if
7:14
he could come and see all of the great
7:16
work. I think you'd be really proud of
7:17
what you all pulled together and
7:19
accomplished in this short time.
7:20
>> That's really sweet. Yeah.
7:22
>> Thanks for saying that.
7:25
>> Oh man, guys, you tired?
7:28
>> Yes. It's been a long week.
7:30
>> That's how I [music] feel. But come on,
7:33
this thing is 27 ft long. Like, it's
7:36
[music] massive. I think we've come a
7:39
long ways from filling tires full of
7:41
dirt. So, let's go inside.
7:44
Feel
7:46
how warm it is in here?
7:47
>> Oh yeah. Right. It's awesome.
7:50
>> Come on. Come on, Diego.
7:53
>> Do you think plants will be able to
7:54
survive in here?
7:55
>> I feel like if we have a shot, this is
7:57
how
7:59
it's amazing. Just walking in that
8:00
greenhouse, feeling the warmth, the
8:02
temperature difference, and [music] just
8:04
seeing that come to life is just a dream
8:07
come true.
8:08
>> So, there's one thing that is really
8:10
exciting that we haven't seen in action
8:12
yet.
8:13
>> Yeah.
8:13
>> And it's this. soaker hose. You can
8:15
literally just weave it in and out of
8:17
the plants
8:18
>> and every time it rains, water is being
8:20
diverted away from the structure [music]
8:22
and watering the greenhouse.
8:24
>> Oh, that's amazing.
8:26
>> 7 days ago, the Web [music] family had
8:29
no gardening knowledge and lacked a
8:32
place to grow crucial yearround crops.
8:36
Now they have a greenhouse carved into a
8:39
mountainside [music]
8:40
and Elizabeth has the ability to grow
8:42
crops for any season.
8:44
>> Can we [music] start planting now being
8:47
that it is September?
8:48
>> I would do things that can reach
8:50
maturity [music]
8:51
in short little windows. All types of
8:53
lettucees, garlic, kale, root veggies,
8:56
and things that like cold temperatures.
8:58
Get some plants and go for it. I promise
9:00
with this structure and the water, you
9:03
you're going to be set
9:04
>> to watch that greenhouse grow from just
9:07
a normal side of a mountain to [music] a
9:11
greenhouse in a week. I mean, that's
9:13
like 2 years for us. I mean, it's it's
9:16
incredible.
9:17
>> It's been a lot of work, but I feel like
9:20
I've learned so much. Thank you so so
9:22
much. [music] and I'm going to think
9:24
about you every time we come down here
9:26
to this greenhouse and all the
9:28
vegetables we pull out. And
9:30
>> before the rainies came, [music] I was
9:32
feeling really uncertain. I wasn't sure
9:35
how we were going to get things ready
9:36
for winter and I didn't want to go into
9:38
another winter like the last one. But
9:41
[music] I feel for the first time in our
9:43
two years here that we are ready for
9:46
winter.
9:54
Okay. What do you think?
9:57
>> I love it. It's [music] out of trees
9:58
from our land. Awesome. It exists. It's
10:02
not an idea. It's not a concept. It's
10:03
[music] not a someday when we have money
10:05
and time. It's right there.
10:07
>> Does it look like it's strong enough?
10:09
>> Oh, yeah. And whether it's the sistns or
10:13
catching all the water you want off that
10:16
roof, you're in a much better [music]
10:17
place when it comes to water.
10:21
>> You're not going to carry me over the
10:22
doorstep?
10:23
>> No.
10:24
>> How's [laughter] it feel?
10:25
>> It's beautiful.
10:26
>> Is it big enough?
10:27
>> Yeah. I mean, we've been living in an
10:29
RV, so anything [music] is bigger than
10:33
that. [laughter]
10:34
We've built this [music] homestead one
10:37
of the biggest baddest carports [music]
10:40
that could be turned into a home. And
10:43
I've seen Joshua overcome [music] his
10:46
fear of heights. So if they want to
10:48
catch water off that thing, Joshua
10:50
[music] can put his own gutters on.
10:52
There's work to be done. Now it's up to
10:54
them. The next step is close it in,
10:58
finish it, [music] and make it a home.
11:00
Yeah, this definitely is headed towards
11:03
being a home for us.
11:05
>> One week ago, Joshua and Elizabeth's
11:08
homestead was out of water, and they
11:11
were set to spend the winter with
11:12
minimal defense against mother nature.
11:16
Now, their water storage system is
11:18
filled to the brim, and their
11:20
all-purpose carport will offer increased
11:23
[music] protection from the elements as
11:25
they work to transform it into their
11:27
permanent home. The rainies have set us
11:29
up not only for this winter, but also
11:32
for all of our steps going forward.
11:34
>> What kind of a layout would you have in
11:36
here?
11:36
>> We think Elizabeth's harp studio will be
11:38
over on that side.
11:39
>> Do you have a harp out here?
11:40
>> I do.
11:42
>> Would you mind getting [music] it?
11:43
>> Sure.
11:44
>> I no longer feel on the brink of
11:46
disaster
11:47
as I felt before the rainies arrived.
11:50
>> This is the only chairs I have. [music]
11:51
Does this work?
11:52
>> Yeah. We're energetic and even though
11:55
winner's right around the corner to to
11:57
say we're excited for [music] it sounds
11:58
weird but we are.
12:01
>> Have you composed written music?
12:03
>> I have. Yeah.
12:04
>> Uh that's what I would like to hear if
12:06
you don't mind.
12:06
>> Sure. I will play something that I wrote
12:09
that was inspired by the view that we
12:11
have here.
12:27
I'm so [music] impressed with Joshua and
12:29
Elizabeth because homesteading is not
12:31
for everyone,
12:33
but I can see that it inspires them. Now
12:39
they have all the resources [music] to
12:40
enjoy and reap the benefits of living
12:45
their dream.
12:49
Oh man, that was that is a beautiful
12:54
piece of music. You're a very talented
12:56
young lady.
12:57
>> Thank you.
12:58
>> Inspired by these mountains. That's
13:01
beautiful.
13:08
>> Well, that was some pretty crazy days.
13:13
the amount of things that were [music]
13:14
accomplished, we wouldn't have even
13:16
probably tried and succeeded to finish
13:19
one, let alone three.
13:21
>> Okay, so before we leave here, there's a
13:25
statistic I heard a couple days ago that
13:28
concern [music] me. The people that come
13:30
to this elevation and not just, you
13:34
know, barely make it, but actually
13:35
thrive
13:37
is 1%.
13:39
Oh,
13:40
>> you've been here two winners.
13:43
Are you guys the 1enters?
13:46
>> Yes.
13:46
>> Yes, sir.
13:48
>> A year from now, you guys will will
13:51
still [music] be here.
13:51
>> Yes, sir.
13:52
>> Yes, we will.
13:53
>> 10 years from now, we'll still be here.
13:55
>> That's all I had to hear.
13:57
>> Thanks for having us. [music]
13:58
>> Thank you.
13:58
>> Thank you, young lady. We came up this
14:01
mountain nearly two miles [music] above
14:04
sea level only to find homesteaders that
14:07
could not check one homesteading box. A
14:10
week or [music] so later, these
14:12
homesteaders can check at least three
14:15
boxes. Food, shelter, and [music] water,
14:18
the important ones.
14:20
Will the webs be 1enters?
14:23
I venture to say right now that anyone
14:27
that can live [music] in those mountains
14:28
at that elevation are indeed the true
14:32
1enters [music] and perhaps the richest
14:37
people in the world.
14:45
You see any changes around this part of
14:47
the homestead?
14:47
>> More than not, it looks like a
14:50
completely different property. [music]
14:51
I definitely had a to-do list that was
14:55
completely
14:57
out of my range [music]
14:58
of being able to accomplish. You have a
15:02
bridge to [music] somewhere. And
15:03
according to the PBLO people,
15:04
prosperity. This is where our prosperity
15:07
is going to come from, too. So much has
15:09
been [music] crossed off that list that
15:11
I'm able to really see clearly what the
15:13
next priorities are and where I need to
15:16
go from here. And [music] it's not
15:18
nearly as overwhelming.
15:21
I'm really proud of you when it comes to
15:24
trying to restore this authentic adobe
15:26
structure that will probably become your
15:28
home. [music]
15:29
>> It's going to become our home very soon
15:31
here. I think we can move into this back
15:34
room here.
15:34
>> Right here.
15:35
>> Mhm. And then [music] we're going to
15:37
plastic off one room at a time and just
15:39
work on one room at a time.
15:40
>> So, you already have a plan. [music]
15:41
>> Yeah. It's become a lot more clear since
15:44
you guys have been here. For sure. I
15:46
definitely see a lot more work cut out
15:48
for me in the future, [music] and I'm
15:49
ready to tackle that now that I have a
15:52
lot of stuff crossed off my list that's
15:54
been holding [music] me back for years.
15:58
One week ago, Jacob and Taylor were
16:01
crammed into a tiny, leaky RV where the
16:04
extreme heat was worsening Taylor's
16:06
health issues. Invasive trees [music] of
16:09
heaven blocked access to their adobe
16:11
house and they had no safe way to cross
16:14
the Asakia to utilize fertile ground.
16:17
Today they can finally access [music]
16:20
their remodeled adobe home now
16:22
reinforced with a new roof, fresh adobe
16:25
brick and free of the unstable additions
16:28
that once covered it. They also have a
16:31
sturdy bridge to the fertile land across
16:33
the Asakia where they can begin to farm
16:36
and take advantage of the nutrientrich
16:38
soil.
16:40
>> I see us coming back to New Mexico. We
16:42
love it.
16:42
>> Anytime you guys come back, consider me
16:44
part of the Rainy Reserve.
16:46
>> That, my friend, is something I'm going
16:48
to hold you to.
16:50
>> Definitely.
16:50
>> Follow me.
16:51
>> All right.
16:54
>> Is it just me or did the weather change?
16:56
[music]
16:56
>> It did. [laughter]
16:58
>> Hello.
16:59
Hello.
17:00
>> All right, let it blow because that
17:03
building is structurally sound. It's
17:05
kind of dried in [music] and it's ready
17:08
to be moved in.
17:10
>> What's really epic about you guys is
17:12
you're adobe experts. You know how to
17:14
make the bricks. You know how to take
17:15
them apart and you know how to put them
17:17
back together.
17:18
>> And your dream is pretty cool. It's a
17:21
dream we've never heard before. You have
17:23

>> I definitely felt like I was living in a
17:49
tiny little trailershaped [music]
17:50
prison cell. And that has all become a
17:54
totally different story. Now we [music]
17:56
are thinking about all the things we
17:58
need to get moved into the house and u
18:01
that'll get us on the road to thinking
18:02
about [music] a family really soon too.
18:04
>> You guys have been great and and we
18:06
appreciate everything you've done.
18:08
>> That's a very nice words. Thanks for
18:10

18:12
time ever coming to New Mexico seeing
18:15

wish that Jacob and Taylor embrace this
18:21
beautiful opportunity. [music]

18:31
rooted in the land of enchantment,
18:35

18:38
people. That's the best thing ever.
