My major goal in life is to become as self-sufficient as possible. I grow my own veg, I keep hens for eggs and am raising broiler chickens and breeding rabbits for meat. I make all my own bread. I am looking into growing my own wheat as well.


I would like to produce my own electricity, either with solar or with wind power. I am leaning toward wind power, because wind is, with current technology, more reliable and sustainable.


Room is the biggest problem - we live in a suburban setting, on a quarter acre of land. We also have a separate piece of land with a garden and small orchard.


I believe we all are going to have to lead more sustainable lifestyles before too long. The Earth that the Good Lord has given us needs to be taken care of, the resources, while bountiful, are limited and should be conserved for future generations.
