Made Homesteading Feel Totally Doable

I don’t have a ton of space or experience, but this gave me the confidence to get started anyway. I’ve already planted a few veggies and even built a small setup for hens, something I never thought I’d do. The tone is super encouraging without being over the top, and the info is clear and practical. It made the whole idea of self sufficiency feel less like a dream and more like something I could actually live.

Listen to this for Homesteading inspiration

For anyone new to homesteading, or, like myself, someone who has thought about what it would take to start homesteading, this audiobook is for you. The author manages to cover so many of the apparent basics, from zoning and legal considerations to inspirational ideas, to basic canning and preserving that this book is a must have for your library. Also included are four basic step-by-step instructions for DIY projects that are perfect for beginners.

Consider this audiobook your starting point as well as motivation to make the leap and embark on homesteading. I found it as entertaining as informational.

Down to Earth and Totally Doable!

I’ve always dreamed of living more self sufficiently, but I don’t have acres of land or a clue where to start. A Beginner's Guide to Simple Homesteading made it feel achievable! The step by step advice on growing veggies, raising hens, and preserving food was surprisingly beginner friendly. It felt like having a knowledgeable and non judgy! friend walk me through the basics. No fluff just real, practical guidance. If you’ve got a backyard and a little curiosity, this one’s a gem.

Proper protocols for newbies

A great part of this title is that it includes the accompanying text in the app which is immensely helpful when absorbing the information needed to create healthy, organic produce where you know where it is coming from. In addition, one thing I really liked about this audio title was that they also pack in a huge amount of knowledge regarding proper protocols when raising healthy animals that will supply your plate for the foreseeable future, and again, you know where it’s coming from! Not like store bought products. This would be an excellent first-time beginner’s listen for anyone looking to put in the work to make sure they know where their food is coming from and who desires to be self-sustainable in a day and age where we rely so heavily on supermarkets to take care of us.

New Beginnings

I used to think homesteading was only for people with land and a ton of free time, so I never really looked into it. But I was curious, so I listened to this audiobook. I live in a suburban area with limited space, but I learned that I can start small—like growing herbs on a windowsill or understanding the basics of composting. It's easy to take the next step when you have a place to start. I won't be able to do everything, but I'm excited about the things I can do.
