Being Self Sufficient:

 Several years ago I was discovered by a very popular magazine that is about going back to nature and self sufficiency. I ended up writing blogs that would be published on their web site about our self sufficient lifestyle. We grew much of our vegetables, made do with materials on hand, milled our own lumber and basically were largely self sufficient. 

I wrote for the magazine for over ten years every week or two. I now see more young people moving in a more self sufficient path with groceries so high. Being self sufficient is something that will benefit people for many years as the direction of our country swings back and forth. It doesn't appear that being self sufficient does not go out of style.
