Your Future in Farming and Homesteading

October 1, 2013 - October 3, 2013

Free

Living off the land is not always easy. If you don’t have a mentor who knows the ropes, chances are you’ll make some costly mistakes.  Join a group of extraordinary farmers, homesteaders, activists, and practitioners as they explain the secrets of their success and how to avoid the most common pitfalls.

  • Do you feel called to live a lifestyle deeply connected to the earth?
