wow, your videos are wonderful and your homesteading journey inspiring! Excited to tune in for more! Any tips on dealing with grey water? Septic?

Thanks for the kind words. We have a septic system that uses a dry well since we're basically about 8 feet above solid bedrock. The septic is a small 500 gallon tank that connects to the dry well. That gives us enough capacity to run everything we need. We built a full two bath home with all of the usual amenities and the wife does quite a bit of clothes washing. Even a small system like ours handles all that quite well.

I too have a makertube, my channel is its electric
