Can a couple of circles make you a more successful homesteader? They can if they’re the overlapping circles recommended by Homestead expert Cyndi Ball.

Cyndi’s book Simplify Your Homestead Plan offers a clear, organized way to plan your homestead from the beginning. There are prompts for self-reflection, reality checks and goal planning. This workbook can save you from pursuing too many paths at one time and can help you create a more sustainable strategy for starting and growing your homestead dreams.

This book is not just for beginner homesteaders. After years of raising chickens and sheep and growing a garden (or two or three), I am using her worksheets to reevaluate our farm. How can I become more efficient? Are my projects aligned with my goals? Is it time to prune an activity?

Cyndi’s personal experience, educational focus, and observations of other homesteads come together in a helpful resource. I highly recommend Simplify Your Homestead Plan.
