I took over my family's homestead, hasn't been used or lived on for almost 15 years, it took a lot to remove the barns that collapsed and have it hauled out, but I have 160 acres! I applied and received 2 grants to help me with the project. Now I have 30 cows, 20 chickens, 10 goats, and grow my food in a green house!

If you want to see what a small scale farm can look like even in the city look up weed em and reap, have have several dairy goats, pigs, chickens, and a fish stocked on one acre and live in suburban Arizona. Also they have a small orchard as well.

I started in 1968. This is a topic I know a lot about. Start with 1, 000, 000.00 dollars and farm till it is all gone. Won't take long! :)

You can definitely do a lot with little . I have built chicken houses goat and pig sheds out of scrape wood . Just takes a little bit of igenuity. They have lasted 20 years or more .

This whole video led up to you saying how to start up a chicken or camel farm with 1 animal. What about property, materials, living costs, etc?

I think Justin Rhodes on his great American Family tour interviewed some Florida farmers and they're actually doing really well with cattle

[MattDLM]

Thanks for the detailed information, I really appreciate this. Keep making these videos!

The whole point is independence. If you don't own the land, you could loose your way of living at any point.

Renting or using someone else land, doesn't make it.

[xzxz-uylm]

Knowledge and knowing the difference between necessity and wanting Land could be the biggest obstacle and cost.

[secretjourney]

Wow!!!! Didnt know it was that cheap! THANK U MUCh. YOU ARE SO CREATIVE AND SMART! btw thats a cool barn

[CrowWilkins]

I think i missed the part about CAMELS???? That's so cool

[williamjver]

Im personally not sure why you are talking about an apartment balcony when the question was homesteading.

Just answer the generic question.

a few acres or more not a balcony.

28 minutes is way too long for this question.

No more than 10 minutes is more than enough time to cover a few acres to many and also the different locations around the US.

Is there a tipping point where I will produce more diary and meat animals than I can process? I mean, will the animals reproduce faster than I can eat and preserve them? I will be able to sell my surplus easily, won’t I?

[moody_a]

how much would i have to budget for homesteading for like maybe 2 acres with 4 chickens, 4 ducks, and 2 goats

[JustShawnie]

Hey! Sarah, I want to be a homesteader also! I come from a homesteader and share copping family and I live in Central, New Jersey and I would love to talk with you about the possibility of working with you on making both of our dreams come true. Please comment back to me and thank you.

We homesteader as a family when I was married. My ex took the property and everthing. 30 yrs down the road and I have retired and now am raising grandsons. I am 68 in good health.and have been looking for property in disloyal county calif. where I was born. I do have knowledge of basic animal husbandry and have land living. I have found property I am interested in and will need to finance half the cost. I will be starting out with bars land but with a creek and work g fed pond. Does this even sound feasable

#Askhomesteady You said you were interested in getting pigs. Have you considered Idaho Pasture Pigs?

[youngguns]

Equipment and land alone will take you 80 years to pay off and if it’s not paid for it’s the banks lol
