The kin's settlement is a complex system, an important feature of which is self-sufficiency. Almost every person who decides to move to a kin's domain thinks first of all about what he will do when he leaves the city. A person seeking freedom and happiness wants not only to live with dignity, but also to do what he loves, inspiring and energizing.
If you study the experience of hundreds of kin's domains, it becomes clear that there are only two broad categories of ways to make money:
- creations of Nature - this is what Nature gives us;
- the creation of man - this is the creative or production activity of man himself.
Any way of earning can be attributed to one of these categories. There are also combinations of them in various percentages.
The first category includes any crop grown on your land: vegetables, fruits, nuts, seedlings, and medicinal herbs. In kin's domains, nurseries of plants, trees, and shrubs are often created. The need to create a nursery arises during the construction of a settlement, and then becomes a full-fledged business: this was the case, for example, in the "Istok" settlement. This category also includes bee products. In many kin's settlements that you read about in our newsletters, residents organize large apiaries: for example, in the settlement Chik-Elga, "Yasnodar", on the domain of the Mayurov family.

To sell the gifts of Nature, residents of kin's domains use online platforms. They often team up with their neighbors and create one website to show all the goods produced by the different families in the settlement. And, of course, they organize fairs where anyone can buy goods from different settlements. An example is the "Tasty Fair" in the settlement "Mirodolie" or the festival "VsyakoEco" in the settlement "Kovcheg". In addition to the fair, at the festival were also organized master classes and other educational events - this is another way to monetize your skills and knowledge.

Making things with your own hands or being creative is another common occupation of the inhabitants of kin's domains. Most settlers are deeply creative people, and they realize themselves in dozens of activities:
- Creative workshops (music, theater, dancing classes, etc)
- Organization of periodic creative meetings - for example, plein air in the apple orchard in the settlement "Chudesnie Holmy".
- Writing books
- Vine weaving
- Wood carving
- Wood furniture making
- Pottery
- Tailoring of environmentally friendly clothes, traditional costumes
- Art painting of fabrics
- Blacksmith craft
- Stone processing
- Weaving
- Creation of jewelry from natural stones
- Making candles.
This is only a small part of the activities that residents of kin's settlements choose for themselves. But the main selection criteria is, of course, your own hobbies. It doesn't matter if you grow beautiful fruits and vegetables or become an artist. The most important thing is that the process of work and its results are filled with love...
