Hi guys! We are a homesteading family living on one acre. We raise chickens, layers and meat birds, goats for milk & meat and we garden & preserve our food. This spring we are adding meat rabbits to the mix!
I joined bc I would love to hear from other people living similar lives on such small land too! We are frugal and big on DIY. I know we will never be completely self Sufficient but we want to be as best we can :)

I can't wait to read more about all of you :)!!!

Welcome! Good luck on adding those rabbits.

Same here, I can't be totally self-sufficient but I am trying to be as self-sufficient as I can.

Welcome!

It sure sounds like you've got it pretty figured out. I haven't gotten as far as I'd like. I want to get a couple goats and some sheep.

Tell us some more!

Hi! Glad to have you here. Lots of interesting stuff on the site. With all that going on, on one acre, I bet you don't have to mow much yard! I'm all for that.
