Did you know that you can homestead anywhere? Homesteading is a basic set of life skills that can be practiced wherever you live right now. So don’t let a lack of land limit your dreams. Make up for a shortage of acreage with creativity and access to awesome resources!
Here’s an article I wrote for Morning Chores on the various pros and cons of homesteading in different locations to help you get started.
I'm an “Epicurean homesteader” and writer focused on simple, sustainable living. I garden on about two acres and grow a large variety of annual and perennial edible, medicinal, and ecosystem support plants. I also keeps ducks, dairy goats, chickens, a pet turkey, worms, and (occasionally) pigs. I'm an Extension Master Gardener Volunteer and teach classes in my community related to edible landscaping and organic gardening. When not growing food, cooking, or composting, I'm likely rocking on the garden swing with my partner Matt Miles, surrounded by our two dogs and four cats.
