Thereâs no doubt about it: 21st-century life is complicated. Chaotic. Noisy. Finding ways to connect with a simpler time is restorative for the soul and mentally rejuvenating, too.
Enter modern homesteading. No, this isnât âLittle House on the Prairieâ redux. Not as drastic as going off the grid entirely, a modern homesteader may keep a garden, take pride in preserving farm-fresh foodstuffs or simply make conscious choices about what they purchase. They may be more aware of their carbon footprint and find earth-friendly reductions.
Modern homesteading is more about living efficiently, reducing dependency and adopting a more self-sufficient lifestyle.
