Mini-Farms & Micro-Homesteads: 3 Simple Tips to Get Started Anywhere
Manage episode 501556159 series 3673186
Dreaming of starting a homestead but think you don’t have enough land? The truth is, you don’t need acres to live more self-sufficiently—you can begin right where you are! In this episode, I’ll share 3 simple tips to start your own mini-farm or micro-homestead—even if all you have is a backyard, a balcony, or just a few containers on the porch.
We’ll cover how to grow food in small spaces, which livestock are best for beginners (like chickens, quail, or rabbits), and how to create a lifestyle of stewardship, simplicity, and faith no matter your zip code. God calls us to use what’s in our hands, and homesteading—even on a small scale—is a way to provide for our families, care for His creation, and slow down in His presence.
If you’ve been searching for:
Start with What You Have
Container gardens, raised beds, herbs in the windowsill, or a small chicken coop. Stewardship starts small!
Choose Beginner-Friendly Livestock
Chickens for eggs, quail for small spaces, or rabbits for meat. Talk about God’s design in providing for us through these animals.
Create Rhythms of Care & Faith
Daily routines for watering, feeding, and prayer time. Tie in Proverbs 21:5: “The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.”
