Lovin' The Homestead
Howdy! So glad to meet you all.
In the process of getting our sufficient selves started. Have always wanted to do something like this, it took me a while to get here. Have always been a city girl, always dependent on what it provides. I'm older (for sure) and wiser (okay, dubious) now and see how unsustainable our current world is and aim for more self sufficiency. And hopefully lessen our carbon footprint.
For the past year and half we've been working on getting our patch of earth ready to live in. We inherited 5 acres of raw land out in an unwanted area so we are just going use what we have. It is so close to being ready, yet sometimes feels so far away. We've been doing this cash-out-of-pocket so it's slow going. We are doing this on the cheap with a single income.
Will probably start a journal with what we have done so far and how the rest goes.
