In today's episode Laura and Jenn discuss the gap between the dreaminess of homesteading often portrayed on social media and the reality that is maintaining gardens, acres, animals, and more. We discuss strategies for setting realistic expectations for those in the dream phase hoping for property, animals, and waiting to start their homestead.
