Think you need 50 acres and a tractor to homestead? Think again. In this episode, Melissa Drees breaks down what self-sufficiency really looks like, starting with a shady backyard, a couple of potted herbs, and a willingness to try. We talk about raising meat rabbits, growing your own food in any space, and why prepping isn’t fear-based, it’s freedom-based. From city living to sustainable living, Melissa’s story challenges the narrative and proves that homesteading is a mindset, not a zip code. Whether you're in a high-rise or on a half-acre, this one will have you rethinking what it means to reclaim your food, your freedom, and your future.
