Our path to homesteading has been a series of baby steps, each directed toward our idea as to what life should look like, what food should look like, what success should look like; with a promise to trust ourselves, to see progress in perhaps a different light and chase it one system at a time.  

​

It's like walking backwards. It’s tracing back the steps of a skill to the source. If I could learn to knit, could I learn to make yarn, could I raise the animals that produce the fiber, could I grow the food that the fiber animals ate? And the path continues, backwards towards the source of sustenance until you eliminate any outside reliance, and that is powerful.
