People think you have to have several acres of land to get started homesteading, but it's not true. I can teach you how to garden, raise animals, cook real food, preserve your harvest and prepare for emergencies no matter where you live.
My family and I live in rural SW Colorado, and we've been homesteading for over 10 years. We started by gardening first and then added chickens next. The reason we got into homesteading was to become more self sufficient and prepare for emergencies. I also wanted to teach my 3 sons the benefits of hard work and growing/raising their own food. We love homesteading and hope you will too.
Let's start with the basics. Incorporating these five steps into your backyard homestead will have you productive and more self sufficient in no time.
Gardening is a large part of homesteading culture. In this chapter, we discuss how to start a garden, including where to put it, what to grow and how to take care of it. We also discuss composting and why it's essential to a nutrient rich garden.
Homemaking is really about taking care of your family in the home. We discuss cooking real food, why it's important and how to save time and money while putting healthy food on the table. We also explore natural cleaning techniques to take care of your family without added harsh chemicals.
Raising animals on the homestead can be scary for new homesteaders. We only discuss 2 kinds of animals (chickens and rabbits) to avoid confusion and burnout. We discuss how to nourish, protect and harvest these animals in a loving and humane way. Raising animals can be a joy for your entire family if you do it right.
Saving the harvest is about preserving and storing food in your house, whether it is from your garden, your own animals or from the store. Preserving techniques discussed are freezing, dehydrating and canning. We also discuss long term food storage and why it's important.
Emergency preparedness is a large and complicated topic. In this chapter, we go over the basics of debt free living and basic disaster readiness. We want you to strive to be debt free so that you can live the way you want without being under anyone else's thumb. By being prepared for life's emergencies, you can save your family and help others as well.
