Homestead farming refers to a self-sufficient agricultural practice where families grow crops and raise livestock primarily for their own consumption rather than for sale. It often involves small-scale farming on a piece of land where individuals produce food for themselves and their families. It is a traditional way of life that fosters independence and sustainability.
The term "homestead" typically implies a self-sufficient lifestyle where the majority of food and resources are produced on the property. Homestead farming can strengthen local economies by creating opportunities for small-scale producers and reducing the need for food imports. It empowers individuals to take control of their food production.
