Homesteading Today for Country Living, Organic Farming and Self Sufficiency

Who are We?

We're a practical, homesteading today website. We use organic farming methods based on back-to-basics principles and simple living, doing things the old-fashioned way and working towards self sufficient living and backyard self sufficiency.

We believe in old age traditions of growing your own and making your own. Being as self-sufficient as possible by living  off the land where you can. Growing and collecting herbs for home remedies, making soap and making cheese, growing vegetables, fruit and raising farm animals in a healthy environment free from artificial fertilizers and chemicals, pesticides and insecticides.

It's a site for homesteaders whether you live on an American family homestead, an Australian homestead, practice urban homesteading in the suburbs or just enjoy country living so that all paths lead to sustainable living.

What are We?

Countryfarm Lifestyles is a practical how-to site that is packed with step-by-step instructions, homesteading advice, country cooking recipes, country crafts, organic gardening and organic methods, urban farming, and information on modern homesteading today, simple living and how you can can take back control of your lives working towards self sufficient living.
