Excerpt from The Homesteading Movement Donn Saylor
1 In the 1960s and 70s, the Back-to-the-Land movement encouraged scores of people to leave overcrowded cities behind to
carve out simpler lives in the country. The movement, now called Homesteading, has experienced a resurgence in recent years.
With environmental threats increasing, food safety constantly called into question, and the cost of living skyrocketing, more
people are turning to Homesteading as a welcome alternative to modern life's drawbacks.
