Homesteading and Sustainability Blogs

The school of hard knocks is a good teacher. But the fast-tracks to learning are studying what has been done before that worked, and associating with those who know because they are in the arena, trying new ideas. Blogs make virtual association easy as pie, and you don’t even have to be polite while you winnow the wheat from the chaff. There are enough whiny, unproductive “greenie weenie” sites, and some so daft we wonder whose Useful Idiots they really are. We’ve gleaned some we think may be of interest to folks who are less likely to hug a tree and more inclined toward planting a tree . . . or several.

The sites below offer good ideas galore to winnow for those interested in personal and natural sustainability and homesteading. Check these out. They can be as much fun as swapping ideas down at the Grange hall:
