did the dream come true?

This is a hopeful dream journal entry from about 7 years ago...
6 years later, we finally had our home, with a big back yard, but no land yet! Its still in the goal book. 


however, the second arrow, learning tricks thru wwoofing
yes. I have. and for that, my garden and soul are thankful!


 

I was single then, and starting to really want a partner in this world, and kiddos.


This was ripped out of somewhere and given to my by my friend, Hope.  
what a lovely verse! 


I am really happy with what I have today.  


... but soon, that happiness will be realized by a hot woodstove in this room where I type, and a solar panel on the roof...
is my next hope!

How inspiring that you're on your way to fulfilling the dreams you envisioned seven years ago, makes me wish I'd kept the hopes and goals I've written down over the years.

I think you can start the sustainable farming lifestyle right where you are. It's possible to plant a big garden, start beekeeping, maybe keep a few chickens, and work your way toward an edible landscape.

heya laura! it is certainly possible to be an urban homesteader. we have a huge garden, but our small town doesn't approve of the chickens...yet!! although i plan to start making some waves pretty soon!
