Welcome to Zero to Homestead

I’m so glad you’re here.

Zero to Homestead is a community for those who feel the pull toward a slower, more intentional life: one rooted in growing food, baking bread, building skills, stewarding land, and creating a home that nourishes body and soul.

This is a place to learn how to:

• Start and grow a homestead (no matter your space or experience)

• Build practical, real-life skills for self-sufficiency

• Create sustainable rhythms for your home and family

• And for those who feel called, eventually turn those skills into a homesteading-based business and legacy

Whether you’re dreaming from an apartment, tending a backyard, or building on acreage, you belong here.

🌱 Community Guidelines

To keep this space supportive, peaceful, and fruitful for everyone:

Be kind and encouraging. Progress over perfection always.
No comparison or shaming. Everyone’s season, budget, land, and pace are different.
Ask questions freely. There are no “silly” questions here.
Share generously. Wins, struggles, photos, lessons learned because they all help someone else.
No drama, politics, or negativity. This is a refuge from the noise, not an extension of it.
Respect the heart of the community. We are here to build, learn, and grow not to argue or tear down.

About Me

My name is Victoria, and I’m the heart behind Zero to Homestead and Keeping It Holistic.

Like many of you, I was drawn to homesteading not just as a skill set, but as a way of life: one rooted in faith, simplicity, nourishment, and stewardship. What began with sourdough, from-scratch cooking, and a desire to slow down grew into a passion for teaching others how to build a more intentional homestead and, eventually, how to turn those skills into something that can support their families and help others.

This community was created because I believe:

• You don’t have to figure this out alone

• You don’t have to do everything at once

• And you don’t have to choose between home and purpose: you can build both

I’m honored to walk this journey with you, from your first small steps to, one day, the legacy you may be called to build.

Start by introducing yourself in the Introduction thread. You’re right on time, and I’m so glad you’re here. 🌿
