This is a place to meet other locals interested in Urban Homesteading and simple living skills like food preservation, caring for livestock, wilderness survival, alternative energy, edible landscaping, permaculture, container gardening...
The group is apolitical (no politics unless there is an issue-based discussion that affects urban homesteading, such as laws regulating the keeping of animals), non-denominational (we welcome all religions, including the non-religious), and all-inclusive (from complete beginner to experienced homesteader).
Like many of you, I'm new at this and am eager to learn and meet other folks who are going down this path as well. So if you have something to share with the group or just want to learn, I hope you join up and start attending some meetups. You don't have to be a hardcore homesteader; we all have to start somewhere.
Sound like something you'd be interested in? Join up!

15 Yes / 0 Maybe(no spots left, but a Waiting List is available)
Let's try and keep this one limited to those who were not able to attend the first one.
Arthur will make a batch of soap the night before and leave it in a mold so he can demonstrate unmolding and cutting to the class. This way you're getting every step from start to finish - minus the waiting.
No children, as we will be using Lye.
No materials needed other than pen and paper for notes. Read more
