Fed up with spending more time exposed to the blue light of her laptop than natural sunlight, Natalie dropped out of college to follow her dream of living off-grid. But what was supposed to be temporary farm work to save cash and learn to live sustainably, turned into 8 years of working other people’s land, for other peoples’ benefit. 

Tally leaves the familiar for an off-grid adventure with a former Green Beret and stray dog named Buttercup.
