about me

I want to escape modern diseases caused by a modern lifestyle. A few years ago this TedX talk caught my attention. I would like to create a similarly integrated system for my own self-sufficiency.

Future Research

Homesteading

I am one or two generations away from my ancestors who lived from the land. For me homesteading is self-sufficiency in food, household products, and attire. I want to learn the skills my great-grandparents knew.

Agriculture

Permanent regenerative agriculture is sustainable, builds more soil, and is the way I will learn to steward land. I hope to learn to create integrated ecosystems where the plants and animals support each other while still producing a harvest.

Animal Husbandry

Self-sufficiency with animals requires knowledge of breeding, raising, and processing. Moving away from intensive factory farming of animals to a more peaceful relationship with animals will be my goal.

Lifestyle

I desire a life where technology is less invasive and family and community takes a more central position. I want to practice non-materialism and find satisfaction with fewer belongings.
