Episode 581: 581: Garden Or Grocery Store: Eating Like a Homesteader No Matter Where You Call Home, Part 1

Is it possible to eat like a homesteader even if you live in an apartment? Yes, it is!

Eating like a homesteader is really about being more purposeful and thoughtful about what you eat and where you source your food. In this episode, Kathi and Roger Lipp discuss what they have learned on their homestead journey about growing their own food in the garden as well as the non-gardening ways they source their food. For example:

• The satisfaction of growing your own food
  • Start with a salsa garden/container garden.
• Don’t have a garden? Try:
  • Shopping at a Farmers’ Markets or Roadside Stands
  • Joining a Food Swap or Bartering Group
  • Be a part of a Community Garden
• And what to do if you have an abundance of produce

For those of you wondering where Kathi and Roger’s chickens fit into the “Eating like a Homesteader” plan, don’t be worried. Kathi’s philosophy is they don’t want to meet their meat.
