THE HOMESTEAD BLUEPRINT: Introductory Self-Sufficiency With Homesteading
THE HOMESTEAD BLUEPRINT: Urban & Small-Space Solutions for Apartment Renters, Suburban Families, and Tiny Yards (No Farm Required)
________________________________________
Sick of paying $8 for wilted basil?
Homesteading isn't just for Instagram influencers with 50 acres.
Most beginners quit after wasting $300 on dead seedlings, zoning law headaches, or chickens that stop laying eggs.
Here's What's Inside:
No Land? No Experience? No Problem:
• Turn balconies into urban container gardens with self-watering planters made from old tires (page 195).
• Convert "dead" patio corners into herb spirals for small-space permaculture (grow 4x more food – page 122).
• Fix bad soil in 14 days using free compost hacks (coffee grounds + cardboard – page 71).
Your First 30 Days, Done For You:
1. Build a chicken coop from pallets ($20 blueprint – page 125).
2. Preserve 6 months of tomatoes with a DIY solar dehydrator (no electricity – page 123).
3. Slash grocery bills by 40% using foolproof companion planting charts (page 120).
Stop Wasting Time (and Money):
• Page 38: Homesteading in strict neighborhoods
• Page 127: Set up rainwater harvesting systems using old trash cans ($0 budget).
• Page 159: Trade zucchini for fresh milk (bartering scripts for beginners).
Who Needs This Book?
• Apartment dwellers with zero yard space (grow potatoes in a trash can – page 67).
• Suburban moms tired of wasting $1,500/year on grocery-store herbs that rot in 3 days.
• DIY flops who've killed fake plants (these blueprints work for all thumbs).
Your first jar of homegrown salsa is 3 clicks away.
Scroll up, hit Buy Now – and by this time next month, you'll:
✓ Harvest eggs from your stealthy backyard coop (page 125)
✓ Stockpile 6 months of food like a squirrel on espresso (page 94)
✓ Bask in smug glory as neighbors beg for your pest-spray recipe (page 119)
Warning: Side effects include kids asking for kale and friends demanding garden tours.

About the Author

Audra Haldane is an agricultural engineer and bestselling author revolutionizing modern homesteading. For over a decade, she’s transformed barren Appalachian hillsides and Scotland’s rain-drenched slopes into thriving, climate-resilient ecosystems—proving self-sufficiency is possible anywhere, whether you’re on a 10-acre farm or a studio apartment balcony.
Audra’s actionable books, The Homestead Blueprint, Homesteading Mastery, and The Food Forest Solution, have empowered thousands to slash grocery bills, build drought-proof gardens, and turn “dead” land into income streams. Dubbed the “Marie Kondo of homesteading” by readers, she specializes in cutting through the fluff to deliver no-nonsense strategies for raising backyard chickens, designing permaculture food forests, and harnessing off-grid energy.
When she’s not teaching urban gardeners how to grow mangoes in Minnesota or coaching suburban moms to preserve 6 months of food, Audra travels the globe studying ancient sustainability practices—then translates them into bite-sized steps for modern life. Join 50,000+ readers who’ve traded takeout for homegrown salsa, HOA battles for stealth chicken coops, and helplessness for true independence.
Follow Audra to start your self-sufficiency journey—no acreage, trust fund, or green thumb required.
