At its core, modern homesteading in a resurgence of traditional and basic skills that promote self-sufficiency and reliance through gardening, raising animals, preserving food, and building systems that reduce waste.
Unlike traditional homesteading that requires a tract of land that becomes a formal homesteading, modern homesteading is using these skills to create an intentional lifestyle of self reliance.
Modern homesteading is less about an end product and more about a mindset and approach to living.
