You do not need a house or land to be self sufficient

People need to remove the idea that unless you have a full blown farm you shouldn’t bother to try and be self sufficient. Sure, without some land you will not be able to raise cattle, pigs and other livestock, but there is so much more you COULD do even in an apartment.

Look in your kitchen. Open your refrigerator, freezer and cupboards. I bet you there are at least 10 things in there you can make on your own if you just tried. Don’t believe me? Well, do you have ketchup? Salsa? Bread? Any bread product for that matter? Pasta? Jam? Peanut butter? The list I am talking about are common day to day things you will find in almost everyone’s house. You paid for them, now learn how to do it yourself and become a little more self sufficient.

The more land you have, the more you can bite off. If you have a patio, have a potted garden. If you have some land, grow vegetables. This can go from having chickens, to livestock and on and on. It is a scalable thing, not all or nothing. Go in your kitchen and find one thing you want to make on your own and do it!
