Our Homesteading Adventure:
Building a Self-Sufficient Lifestyle… Together
Welcome to Kowalski Mountain! We’re Philip and Barbra-Sue Kowalski. We own 68 acres in Western Kentucky where we are building an off-grid homestead. After seven years of waiting, we have finally made our full-time homesteading dream a reality! In the fall of 2023, Philip and I retired from our jobs, moving over 700 miles from our home in Florida to the homestead at Kowalski Mountain.

Join us as we continue to build our off-grid homestead and begin the process of building our log home from the timber harvested on the property.
