Building a diverse and thriving homestead landscape can be a daunting task, but with a clear plan, it can also be a rewarding and fulfilling experience. Leah Webb shares her seven-step strategy for creating a backyard microfarm, starting small and gradually adding more features each year.

Step-by-step photos and practical advice make this guide a valuable resource for anyone looking to break free from reliance on the commercial food system.
