Welcome to Self Sufficient Living; On A Farm
"Prepare Today For Tommorrow"
What does self sufficient living mean to you?
Produce your own food, unplug from the electric grid, build your own homestead and maintain a frugal life style?
Today’s economy is becoming more and more difficult and complicated. The cost of living has sky rocketed and has put a tremendous strain on many households.
Many people find themselves working eighty hours a week just to maintain their lifestyles.
They feel trapped by the demands of society and don't see true happiness.
If you enjoy country living or even live in urban or rural communities, you too can have self sufficient living. You can grow a garden in your backyard, build a greenhouse, raise chickens for eggs and meat, milk your own cow(that might be hard if you're urban)!
Yes, it is hard work, but also enjoyable! Like the old adage says; Anything worth having is worth working for.
Wouldn't it be great to grow tomatoes that taste good, or bake bread that does not have additives, and enjoy holidays that are not commercialized?
With today's economy, we tend to opt for the quickest solution for our day to day needs. We rely on store bought goods to get us through. Back to basics living is what this website is all about.
Don't get me wrong, buying what we need is sometimes essential and convenient. Afterall, our society is based on the monetary system. But reaping the fruits of our labor is a reward in itself.
Self sufficient living provides practical, useful information on just about every skill and handicraft under the sun.
We provide the boost that you will need to get you back to the basics of living and help you become a successful homesteader and even an entreprenuer!
On this site, you will learn how to produce, create and hopefully start your own business.
Time for you to explore!
1. Renewable energy
2. Planting a garden
3. preserving your own food
4. Hoop house plans
5. Beekeeping
6. Country crafts
Our goal is to help you to become more self sufficient, and will teach you how to take those skills and create your own home based business.
You will be able to try your hand at Candle making, broom making and stone masonry. You will discover how to create Lucious Soaps and even tan a hide!
All the necessary skills are presented in detail and can be easily obtained and mastered to help you on your way to self sufficiency.
And, you might even get so good at them that you can tell your boss YOU QUIT!
Most of these skills are well within the capability of the average person,and many are appropriate for family involvement, especially for the kids with parental guidance.
