Ever wonder how people homestead, grow animals, or even just live in the desert? How do you begin a homestead, what do you look for in livestock, feed, water storage, or equipment?

Just a general ramble from the farm here. Just as a general deal, I kind of laugh at the idea of people paying me to talk about their stuff as I don’t have that many listeners (at least at the time this podcast goes online) so find the idea of real advertisers a little funny. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/adob…
