Benefits of Homesteading
Practicing a self-sufficient lifestyle is a great way to cut back on your utility bills, live closer to nature and reduce your interaction with the government and financial markets.
While a homestead can include many different activities and ideologies, there is one core philosophy shared by most homesteaders–self-reliance.
