The Academy of Self-Reliance has partnered with the OSR Green to provide education to OSR co-op members in helping them become self-reliant.
The Utah OSR™ Land Co-op is located on the Riverbed Ranch property about 55 miles west of Santaquin and about 40 miles north of Delta. The property is 1,245 acres. It’s about 3 miles long (North to South) and about 3/4 miles wide.
Here is a link to the property on Google Maps: 39.888199, -112.815083
The Arizona OSR™ Land Co-op is located 9 miles East (as the crow flies) from Snowflake-Taylor, AZ. The property is 1,300 acres and has room for nearly 250 two to four-acre homesteads.

Watch our introduction as we discuss the transition from a city lifestyle to a country culture of self-reliance.
Can a modular/manufactured home be brought in if you purchase you two acres and get approval? Onsite septic and water well would have to be done. And solar on the roof so that it is completely off the grid. Also, if you put in a yard is it watered from you culinary or is there secondary water?
You could only do it by building a complete new envelope around the outside … i.e., block up exterior walls with compressed earth blocks and build then high enough to construct a new roof strong enough to support 9″ to 12″ of earth … God forbid you don’t try to add that much insulation instead … the trade off is not attractive to Sustainability but CEB and Green Roof would do the trick!
