here’s a growing movement of people wanting to live off-grid, become self-sufficient, and homestead, but high land costs or city jobs often make this seem impossible. Homesteading isn’t just about owning a farm—it’s a mindset focused on intentional living, skill-building, and self-reliance. Even with little to no land, you can:
-
Learn skills like canning, food preservation, cooking from scratch, and mending/repairing.
-
Grow food in containers, rooftop gardens, community gardens, or small suburban plots.
-
Raise small livestock if possible to learn animal husbandry and butchering.
-
Expand gradually from apartment balconies to small yards to larger plots.
The key is developing skills, living intentionally, and making the most of the space you have. Homesteading is more about mindset and self-reliance than the size of your property.
