Ep 124. Is it really cheaper to Homestead in the Suburbs?
Manage episode 481641732 series 3538287
We all love the idea of saving money through homesteading—but is it actually cheaper to DIY everything when you live in the city or suburbs? In this episode, we break down the real numbers behind some popular homesteading tasks using actual prices from our area. From making your own butter and yogurt to growing a garden and baking sourdough, we’re taking a close look at what really saves money—and what’s worth doing for other reasons like quality, sustainability, or self-sufficiency.
Spoiler: Sometimes the savings are real—and sometimes, it’s more about the why behind what we do.
