Prepsteading is all about self-reliance and living life on your own terms while also  being prepared for all that life throws at us. It should be no surprise that creating food security for you and your family are right there at the top of the list of things to consider. Growing your own food is one of the most rewarding things you can do, both physically and mentally. Nurturing a plant from a tiny seed or cutting over the course of time may be just what the doctor ordered for anyone who’s been caught up in the rat race for too long. It’s an exercise in patience and along with your harvest comes with a sense of pride and greater respect for the processes of nature providing sustenance for you and your family that was all brought about by your own nurturing hand.
