Family homesteading for 15 years on the edge of the Australian bush. This family grows and raises an incredible amount of food with their fruit trees, vegetable gardens, laying hens and sheep. They preserve their harvests with canning, dehydrating, freezing, smoking and fermenting. They also try to reduce their impact by collecting rainwater for their home and gardens (except the kitchen sink), offsetting their electricity usage with solar power, cooking with their woodstove, solar ovens and home bio gas system.

Rachel and Russell and their two boys have done a ton of research and experimentation on their homestead and they have a lot of knowledge to share! We're grateful to share their story here, and hope you'll give them a follow over at @Bush_Edge_Homesteading_Aus :)

Thanks for watching!
