If you have a nagging urge to want a more self-sufficient lifestyle, then you're not alone. In fact, there's been a growing trend in recent years of people wanting to get back to basics and become more self-reliant. That little voice nagging you about this is a very real reason to consider options. We hear a lot of news about supply chain shortages these days. What if you couldn't 'run to the store' and get groceries? What if basic supplies are not available? What if the power is interrupted for more than a few days?

What is Self Sufficiency?

No, you don't have to live in a cabin in the woods like your grandparents did! You could do this, but you can also take steps to live more a more self-sufficient lifestyle and maintain a normal life in the process.

There are many reasons why someone might want to adopt a more self-sufficient lifestyle. For some, it's about wanting to be more independent and self-reliant in these uncertain times. Or perhaps you just want to downsize into a more simple way of life. With so many people working from home since the lock-downs, it's easier than ever to transition into this self-sufficient lifestyle.

IIn a world where there are so many negatives, going a little off the grid can have any advantages.

Thanks for sharing a great blog Pam.

Being self-sufficient is the ability to maintain day-to-day activities in the midst of turmoil. It's having enough resources on hand that you have a source of water, can feed your family, and keep the house warm in cold weather. It's having skills and equipment to grow your own food if necessary. It's knowing how to maintain your home without calling a plumber or carpenter.
