Watch and observe the cycles of nature and the rhythms of the land. Learn as you go, experiment and adjust. Gather tips and charts, source heirloom seeds and recipes for compost tea, learn by trial and error to manage those hungry pests and bugs, find heirloom seeds, intern and go WWOOF-ing. There is a swag of resources and opportunities to help you gather the skills and experience you need to be increasingly self sufficient. Be proactive and act to realise your dreams!
