As urban life becomes more disconnected from the sources of our food and the land, a growing movement is gaining traction: the return to self-sufficient living. McKenzie Ferry and her family have embraced this shift at Living Land Ranch<\/a><\/em>, teaching others the art of growing their own food and cultivating community. In this episode of Behind the Business<\/em> with host Gordie Tamayo, we explore the journey from city life to running a thriving homestead in Idaho. With the upcoming Idaho Homestead Conference<\/em> just around the corner, this conversation comes at a pivotal time for those looking to reconnect with the land and embrace a more sustainable lifestyle. According to the USDA, small farms and homesteads are making up a larger percentage of local food economies, which only highlights the timeliness of this episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
