Utilities are getting more expensive as resources simply become more scarce, and with a rising human population food is becoming scarcer in highly-populated parts of the world. One wonderful way to de-clutter your life, reduce your negative impact on the Earth, and re-discover the joys of connecting with the land around you is to live in a tiny house.
Tiny homes, is in other words Tiny Living, is sweeping the nation as a younger generation of adults begins to discard the over-reliance on consumerism that has led us to modern problems of clutter. With a small bit of garden and some chickens, you can experience the joy of free food.

Refit the interior to contain a heating stove and running water for cooking and sanitation, and repanel the walls and floor with wood. A fold-out sofa bed can sleep two people. From there, let your imagination run wild.
