Is there such a thing as urban homesteading? Absolutely, and in the next few moments I will provide you with useful advice if you live in the city or suburbs.
To begin with, let’s define urban homesteading, shall we?
To put it bluntly, urban homesteading means self-reliance/living off the grid as much as humanly possible for city dwellers.
The general idea behind urban homesteading is that you don’t have to own a property or a piece of land “in the country” (as in a rural area) to benefit and take pride from the fruits of your own labor.
An increasingly growing number of people who live in the suburbs and even in the cities are slowly learning this fact: You can develop a self-sufficient lifestyle without being forced to relocate, i.e., to leave your city home.
Yes, urban homesteading can be pretty tough sometimes, because you’re surrounded by the city’s cement jungle instead of acres and acres of farmland, but the good news is that you can still enjoy something relatively close to the “rural life” of our forefathers.
If you have a love for all things that grow from God’s green earth, keep reading. What I have to offer are some smart tips and tricks for turning your urban space into a self-sustaining oasis, for a feasible and live-free-way-of-life in terms of food supply.
