Ep 206. The Hidden Consumerism in Homesteading

from The Homestead Challenge Podcast | Suburban Homesteading, Gardening, Food From Scratch, Sustainable Living · host Brittany Gibson - Beginner Homesteader

In this episode, we’re talking about the hidden consumerism that can sneak into the homesteading lifestyle and why it’s so easy to buy the fantasy version of homesteading instead of actually living it. We chat about homestead perfectionism, comparison culture, overbuying supplies, hobby collecting vs. hobby doing, and why buying food for your family is not failure if you’re actually using it. If you’ve ever felt pressure to have the perfect pantry, garden, or homesteading setup, this episode is a gentle reminder that simple, imperfect homesteading still counts.   https://thehomesteadchallenge.com
