Practical Management

About this episode

The episode discusses optimizing land use in homesteading, focusing on maximizing efficiency on smaller acreage.

In homesteading circles, it is common to think that owning more land is always better. Join us for this discussion on why we "settled" for less acreage than we originally wanted and how we have maximized the space we have. We are currently focused on optimizing the flow and layout of our property to make it as efficient as possible, allowing us to make the most of our seven acres. For anyone trying to produce food on small acreage, we hope you walk away with creative ideas for maximizing your land. Ample Flame is here to encourage listeners to do the hard work of reclaiming the gifts God has given us of faith, family and food from a broken culture.
