Welcome to RuralLivingToday.com, where we make your transition from city life to rural living seamless and enriching. Our focus is on providing comprehensive information and insights into homesteading, sustainable land use, animal husbandry, and embracing the simplicity of rural life.

Our Mission

At RuralLivingToday.com, we are dedicated to helping individuals and families adapt to and thrive in rural environments or wherever they live. Our mission is to guide people in creating sustainable, self-sufficient, and fulfilling lives.

Our goal is to educate and inspire readers to become more self-reliant and to assist them in exploring what that means for them.

We achieve this by offering practical advice on a range of topics: from starting a garden, raising chickens, beginning homesteading, managing small-scale farming, choosing the right generator, and off-grid living. We also provide tips on emergency preparedness, moving out of the city, and navigating the unique challenges and joys of rural life.

Our Story

RuralLivingToday.com was inspired by the personal journeys of Greg and Dawn Head. Greg, having grown up in a rural setting, learned the value of hard work early on by working on his family’s acreage, raising animals, farming, and helping on other people’s land during the spring and summer months.

Dawn’s roots were in a suburban area where she gardened, later moving to a large city where opportunities for homesteading were limited.

Their contrasting backgrounds brought unique perspectives when they eventually settled in an area outside a larger city with their own land. Their transition from these diverse environments to a life rich in rural and homesteading practices is at the heart of this site.

Their combined experiences – from setting up a successful homestead to exploring sustainable agriculture – offer a wealth of knowledge and inspiration to our readers.
