Today, Neva is debunking one of the biggest myths in homesteading: self-sufficiency.
Homesteading is often sold as a "do it all yourself" lifestyle. But the idea that anyone can be 100% self-sufficient is simply not true. True homesteading isn’t about doing everything alone—it’s a frame of mind, a way of living that values hard work, learning, and connection.
Neva has seen how chasing total self-sufficiency leads to burnout and a narrow view of what homesteading is meant to be. No one was created to do it all. Homesteading was never meant to be an isolated life—it’s meant to be shared.
Community matters. Learning matters. Grace matters.
Neva reminds us: it’s good to be capable, but it’s better to know that you were never meant to do everything alone.
