Hey there, fellow green thumbs and dreamers! I’m UncleLu, just a regular person who found a love for gardening and a dream for homesteading in the crazy times of 2020. Remember when the world turned upside down? That’s when I picked up a trowel and started this incredible journey.
Let’s be real: 2020 showed us we can’t just wait around for someone else to sort out our food and basics. That’s when I thought, “Why not learn to do it myself?” And guess what? It’s been one heck of a ride, and I’m nowhere near done. Homesteading? It’s my dream, and I’m taking baby steps to make it happen – researching, experimenting, and sometimes just winging it.
This blog is my way of inviting you into my world. Whether you’ve got green fingers or you can’t tell a weed from a flower, it doesn’t matter. We’re all in this together! I’m here to share everything – the wins, the oops moments, and all the “aha” stuff I pick up along the way.
I believe in living a life where you’re the boss of your own needs. Imagine growing your own food, tapping into nature for water and energy, and just being the ruler of your little kingdom. It’s not just about saving money; it’s about living a life that’s rich in the things that really matter – family, friends, good health, and yes, loads of home-grown veggies!
Homesteading is more than a lifestyle; it’s about building bonds, sharing laughs, and having enough to give back. It’s a gift from above, and trust me, anyone can do this. Let’s dive into this journey together. It’s going to be fun, messy, and totally worth it. Let’s grow something great – one seed, one dream, one day at a time!
