My family has been homesteading for three years. Like most Western homesteaders, we’re hobby farmers ... We don’t do this to stay alive, though we feel most alive when we’re doing it. :-)The entire piece is available on Mother Earth News' "Community Chickens" blog, here.
Through each passing season we’ve learned about gardening and animal husbandry through reading, asking our neighbors, asking our friends, and, most importantly, actually getting out there and doing something. Trial and error is a faithful schoolmaster.
