Abstract
The ability to homestead has had a diminishing importance as the world becomes more modernized. There is no longer a need to understand what we eat and how it got to our dinner plate. In today’s society, people would rather work 9 to 5, 5 days a week, then drive to the grocery store to purchase packaged food shipped from all over the world. Another reason people may be turned away from the idea of homesteading, is the amount of work that is involved with running a homestead. I would like to provide a solution that makes homesteading affordable and minimizes the amount of work needed to maintain it. This thesis research looks at how a homestead can function efficiently in a modern society to allow the residents to become self-sufficient.
