What is Homesteading?

Homesteading is a lifestyle centered around self-sufficiency, where individuals and families grow their own food, raise livestock, preserve harvests, and even generate their own energy. Whether embracing off-grid rural living or practicing urban and suburban sustainability, homesteaders seek greater independence, healthier food options, and a deeper connection with the land. The movement is fueled by a passion for DIY skills such as woodworking, herbal medicine, and food preservation. With the rise of social media, modern homesteading has become more accessible than ever, inspiring people everywhere to reclaim traditional skills for a sustainable future.

Come experience Florida’s premier homesteading festival—where history, craftsmanship, and self-reliance come to life!
