Winter might not seem like the ideal season to start your homestead journey. After all, the ground is frozen, the garden is dormant, and everything feels a bit slower. But here’s the thing—starting in the winter has its perks, especially when you focus on something that’s essential, manageable, and rewarding: food.

If you’re wondering where to begin, start with what’s on your plate.

Homesteading can feel overwhelming when you think about all the possibilities. But instead of trying to do it all at once, narrow your focus to one meal. Choose a favorite meal you and your family love, and commit to making it entirely from scratch.

Homesteading is all about working smarter, not harder. Use a quiet winter weekend to cook a few meals in advance. Soups, stews, and casseroles freeze beautifully and will save you time when life gets busy.

Winter might be cold and quiet, but it’s the perfect season to start something new. Homesteading begins with small, intentional steps—and the kitchen is the best place to take them.
