Embracing the Homesteading Lifestyle

Homesteading is about rediscovering the joys of self-reliance, sustainability, and living in harmony with the land. At Wylder Space, we teach you how to grow your own food, build essential tools, and transform your backyard into a thriving garden that provides for your family.

Steps to Begin Your Homesteading Journey

• Start Small: Begin with a manageable garden space to grow essential vegetables like tomatoes, carrots, and kale.
• Master Tool Basics: Learn to craft or repair simple tools like raised bed frames, compost bins, and watering systems.
• Preserve Your Harvest: Practice canning, fermenting, and dehydrating to enjoy your produce year-round.
• DIY Projects: Build a small smokehouse, root cellar, or even a basic irrigation system to support your homesteading efforts.
• Community Connections: Share knowledge and trade surplus produce with neighbors or local farmer networks.
