From food preservation and sustainable gardening to practical resourcefulness and mindful homemaking, city homesteading fosters self-sufficiency, resilience, and adaptability—even without large land or livestock. Tune in to discover essential preparedness skills that every urban homesteader can rely on, and learn how to create a more secure, calm, and resourceful lifestyle in uncertain times.

Emergency preparedness is not only a hot topic, but it seems as though it might actually be necessary. For me, learning skills and foraging is a cheap and amazing way to feel prepared in a peaceful way. With the stress of the world, foraging can bring so much peace, and the skills you learn along the way may just come in handy someday! Autumn foraging is fun as you get to be in nature as the leaves begin to change, and the black walnuts begin to fall. Black walnuts are super easy to forage and can be a powerful tool in your home herbal medicine kit.
