Some Inspiration

When I first started my quest into semi-urban homesteading ten years ago, the first real website I came across was that of the Dervaes family. They subsist entirely on the tiny plot of land in the suburbs of Pasadena, California. They sell what extra they have, which enables them to purchase those things they cannot grow on their own.

Although we don't exactly have the beautiful, year-round California weather, we do have quite a bit more space...and if they don't inspire you to make use of your glorified golf-course (as they have us), perhaps they can shame you into it.

  1. They are the most inspirational people around LA. I still have not had the opportunity to make it over there, but I have been following them for years. Thanks for posting. My best friend lives out there in OZ (Spring Hill) - great state you are in :-)
