🌟 RESULTS: What Kind of Homesteader Are You?

Mostly A’s – The Garden Guru 🌿

Your happy place is among the plants. You know your compost from your cover crop and probably talk to your tomatoes. Your harvests are the heart of your homestead.

Mostly B’s – The Animal Whisperer 🐓
You’re up at dawn with feed buckets in hand. You have a knack for animal care and your livestock are lucky to have you. You probably have names for all your chickens!

Mostly C’s – The Pantry Prepper 🥫
You shine in the kitchen and pantry. You love knowing your shelves are stocked for anything—from unexpected guests to winter storms. Canning, dehydrating, and batching are your superpowers.

Mostly D’s – The DIY Maverick 🔧
You’re the hands-on homesteader who builds, fixes, and invents. Whether it’s a chicken tractor or solar dehydrator, you’ve probably built it—or you’re about to.

So, what type are YOU? Let us know your results below and tell us if the quiz got it right! 🌞🛠️🥕

Quiz didn't work for me... I had multiple answers to all of the questions, lol. Does that make me an over-achiever or totally unfocused? (you don't have to answer that, lol)

Oh well, time to go check the garden, feed the critters then come back in and continue to re-organize the kitchen with the new shelves I put together yesterday. Honest truth!
