If you have ever wanted to start homesteading, and learn small and easy steps along the way, this is the audiobook for you. The Essentials of Homesteading is a fun listen, and it motivated me to pick some little projects to start with at our home. The chapters included projects on a budget and legal considerations, stuff I would never have thought of.

My favorite chapters talked about gardening, and such topics as capturing rainwater and organic gardening. Starting with smaller projects is a great way to get on the road to homesteading. Later you could expand into solar projects and bigger projects. This was a fun book that was both practical and entertaining at the same time.
