Self-Sufficient Living

What does it mean to be self-sufficient?  

For some the simple answer is taking care of ones self.  For others, it is more extreme.  They want to live without the help of others.   The purpose of this section is as a resource for those who desire to live in between these two ideas.

I have often thought that I would like to turn back time and find some acreage where I could grow my own food.  Don’t know that I would raise cows, chickens or pigs.  Just having a garden with fresh organic vegetables could be wonderful.

It was just a few generations ago that our grandmothers or great-grandmothers made quilts to keep warm, sewed clothes, made jams & jellies, made soap and made those homemade berry pies.
