About us: Anna Hess and Mark Hamilton spent over a decade living self-sufficiently in the mountains of Virginia before moving north to start over from scratch in the foothills of Ohio. They've experimented with permaculture, no-till gardening, trailersteading, home-based microbusinesses and much more, writing about their adventures in both blogs and books.

Where is the 'like' button? The book is wonderful, and this blog is pure gold. Thanks so much, Anna. I used to comment on this blog a lot in 2010/2011 ... I did actually leave my day job and spent a summer as a farm intern (learned lots, mostly about challenges, expenses, barriers) but I kept on and now I have a modest but stable income from a business (I found a way to do my day job online) and I am putting in a ginormous garden and, well ... I'm on my way. So THANK YOU!! I wanted to say that the thing I LOVE about this blog is the unpretentious of it all. You are making it cool to be real, down to Earth, living enjoyably but simply, not wasting, re-using, etc. This is a realistic way (the only way?) for even young people to go for self-sufficiency. So ... thanks again!!!
