About this listen

Do you want to live a life of complete independence and self-sufficiency, but aren’t sure how to start? Are you tired of relying on food products with ingredients you can’t pronounce from companies you don’t trust? If you’re ready to start farming your own crops, you’re not alone.

However, you might have heard that you need acres of farmland to build your own homestead. Or that you need to have a Master’s degree in agriculture before you even think about laying out a vegetable patch. After all, growing your own food can be a complicated task, especially if you weren’t born with a “green thumb.” Just the thought of taking care of a homestead can make you give up before you’ve started.

This is why after years of careful research and testing, Mary N. Rowan is sharing her step-by-step blueprint for breaking ground on your own homestead, no matter where you live.

You’ll discover:

  • Whether or not it’s legal to homestead where you live—listen to this before planning out your garden.
  • Ten tips for getting the highest crop yield out of your gardening space.
  • The best homesteading strategies for any amount of land, even if you have an eighth of an acre lot.
  • Five key factors to consider when picking plants for your garden.
  • Eight essential vegetable groups that every gardener should know—and the best way to lay them out in your garden.
  • Which herbs grow well outside, and which herbs you should plant indoors.
  • Four effective techniques for harvesting fruits at their ripest.
  • The science-based process for minimizing food waste when you’ve grown more than you can eat—it’s so advanced, it’s simple!
  • The six best chicken breeds for starting your own flock, and how to decide which breed is right for you.

Whether you’re a seasoned home gardener or you’ve never touched soil in your life, this guide lays out the basic principles to homesteading in plain terms that anyone can follow.

If you’re ready to enjoy the satisfaction of living off the fruits of your own labor (literally), then listen to this audiobook.
