Building a Simple Greywater System - With Worms! ~ Off-grid Living

We are Mauro and Harriet and in February 2021 we bought an abandoned smallholding in Castellón, Spain.

Join us as we develop a market garden rooted in sustainable agriculture & permaculture principles, transform a stone masía into a liveable little house, and rebuild an old stone ruin into a family home.

In this video we are building a super simple system to handle some of our greywater (used but not toxic waste water) which comes out of our kitchen and shower. We are totally off grid here so closed systems are really important, as are SIMPLE systems as we need to know we can maintain things ourselves :) By capturing our waste water, we also ensure this precious resource stays on the property and is put to good use. We also get to provide a home for 600 little wriggly friends, who take our waste and turn it into compost and worm tea!

Thanks as always for watching and would love to hear if you've done anything similar or have any tips or ideas!

Somos Mauro y Harriet, y en febrero de 2021 compramos una finca abandonada en Castellón, España.

Únete a nosotros mientras desarrollamos una huerta basada en la agricultura sostenible y en los principios de la permacultura. También estamos trabajando en hacer habitable una masía de piedra, y la reconstrucción de una ruina en una casa familiar.

En este video estamos construyendo un sistema súper sencillo para gestionar las aguas grises de la cocina y la ducha (agua usada pero no tóxica). Vivimos totalmente fuera de la red, así que es muy importante para nosotros tener sistemas simples y cerrados que podemos mantener nosotros mismos. Además, al capturar nuestra aguas grises, aseguramos de que este recurso tan importante se quede aquí en la finca para poder aprovecharlo y reutilizarlo. ¡Y también proveemos un hogar para 600 criaturas bailongas que convierten nuestros desechos en compost!

Gracias como siempre por ver el video y nos encantaría leer vuestros comentarios si habéis hecho algo similar o si tenéis ideas o consejos.
