So… you want to stop shopping at the grocery store? You want to be more self-sufficient?
Yep. us too.
However, in today’s world, achieving this goal is far from easy.
We don’t live in Pioneer times anymore, there’s no Homestead Act which gets us free land, we have insurance and taxes to pay, not to mention most of us drive cars… not cattle.
This has led many people to wonder if true self-sufficiency is possible.
Can you be 100% self sufficient as a homesteader? If no, what % should you shoot for?
Learn what to expect in this episode of the Podcast!

Are you ready to hear the saddest statistic we may have ever shared here at Homesteady?
90% of goat owners report having a goat die, for a reason other than old age.
That means most of us who own goats are going to experience some really heartbreaking death at some point in our goat journey.
The sad truth is, although they're super cute, they can be really hard to keep alive.
That's why we talked to Deborah Neiman, the author of Raising Goats Naturally and Goats Giving Birth all about these major problems facing goat owners and how we can overcome them.
So let's tackle these three major obstacles with Deborah... she shares some expert advice on how to keep our goats happy and healthy!

The average new home today costs somewhere between $200,000 and $400,000 to build.
What if there was a better way...?
What if you could build your house out of materials that people were throwing away? Free materials, and a building method that was DIY friendly...
This is exactly why Annie and Jay built themselves an Earthship.
What is an Earthship?
An Earthship is a type of sustainable, passive solar home that is made of natural and recycled materials. The design emphasizes self-sufficiency, energy efficiency, and the use of renewable resources... Like beer cans, or in Annie and Jay's case... Tires!
