Great intro for beginners & refresher for homesteaders
I enjoyed Homestead Essentials as an excellent review. This book was very timely, as I am currently looking for a place where I can expand my efforts from suburban backyard container gardening into a more robust homestead. the authors touch on just about every aspect, and I picked up a number of tips on things I had not yet thought about. I especially enjoyed the recipes they included in the food preservation chapter! I recommend this book to anyone interested in building a more self-sufficient lifestyle.

Homestead Essentials Audiobook is phenomenal, even if you just want to learn something new. The author has created a book that is not only excellent to listen to now, you can use it as a reference book and got the specific chapter when you are ready. I especially liked the chapter on future proofing your homestead and all the preparation necessary. A very quality book, easy to understand and implement. I really recommend this book!

Self-Sufficiency for Homesteading
Homestead Essentials has transformed my approach to sustainable living. The practical DIY projects, from building raised beds to creating a chicken coop has encouraged me to start my journey. The detailed food preservation techniques and natural pest control methods was great information. This is good information both beginners and those with limited space seeking self-sufficiency.
