RE: WHY WE HOMESTEAD - PART 4 - SELF-SUFFICIENCY AND FINANCIAL GOALS
Really great post - and series. I hadn't considered that yes, for every $1 not spent it's more like $2 saved. I'm going to remember that!
Yup, that came from @me-tarzan, and I thought it was a very good point. Those taxes!
I could hear the ducks in the background and they sound very very happy
that sounds like a lot of eggs
I agree that homesteading can really make you self sufficient plus it doesn't only teach your kids to be the same but also make them love nature a lot - at least that's what I got having lived with my grandparents who were homesteaders
I don't remember buying much food aside from fish and clams and other sea food freshly caught in the sea when I was there - it saved us much money plus made us eat un-sprayed food - that's the best part - organic
the tasks - quite tough for my grandparents I think but during harvest time holy freaking moly happiness!
It is fun and rewarding, not only in lifestyle, but health too. We sure do enjoy it!
