We're really pleased with our latest piece on Homestead Horizon, looking at the recent traction homesteading has been making globally over the past year or so; what's caused it, why this is happening now, and other key takeaways to note from this new spotlight on a seemingly niche way of living.

We're so keen to get others out there involved that we've made this member exclusive piece completely accessible to all to read in full. Head to our publication today to read more and become a member for free today with just an email address.

Here in the US, back at the beginning of Covid, many folks decided to move to land and become homesteaders.

In my area many folks moved back to their grandparents property and started business based on homesteading skills.

So, to me, its not just Europe where homesteading is on the rise.

That’s really interesting to hear. The way people in your area moved land and built something from the skills already in their community is a strong example of how these shifts often take shape long before they’re widely noticed. It sounds like a very organic move towards practical knowledge and local resilience.

You're absolutely right. Our piece focused on Europe because that’s where we’ve been tracking the most recent changes, but what you’ve described adds a really valuable perspective to the wider picture and how this is a global change.

I’d be keen to hear a bit more about how things developed where you are if you would like, the kinds of projects that took off or the skills people leaned on.
