Homesteading conjures up different ideas for different people. For some, it’s a way to live off the land and escape some of modern life’s inconveniences. For others, homesteading is a way to foster self-reliance, an appreciation of the land, and a means to a simpler life. June 22 is MOFGA Farm and Homestead Day.
