After only three years of homesteading, this family is already growing 90% of their food for a family of four on 2.3 acres, and most of it is grown in their front yard! They grow 150 varieties of fruits and vegetables using permaculture principles and they use a variety of methods to preserve their harvest, from drying and canning to freezing and fermenting.
