It doesn’t matter if you currently live in an apartment, sub-division or in the country (and have yet to till or get any animals), you can start your homesteading journey right now. Study, read and plan. Dream, arm-chair shop and set goals. Much of the life of homesteading has to do with training the mind, buffeting the body and THEN going ahead and doing (on a consistent basis). So get a head start and start now!
Go to the library (if you prefer tactile pages, as I do), browse the internet and subscribe to a magazine or two. Through these venues you can learn and practice valuable skills even if you’re not ON a homestead just yet.
Next Tuesday’s Tip will be about how to become an URBAN homesteader. This is the action step to starting now – no matter where you live!
